The Fire Dance

The Fire Dance

Ch100


Everyone gathered at the stables and Elrond sighed when he noticed his
sons approach.

Pulling him close, Thranduil whispered "Now calm down Rondy, just
because they are dressed alike does not mean..."

"Thran, even I can not tell them apart right now...and they are my seed"

Glorfindel looked down from atop Asfaloth and smiled "Relax Gwee, I
will return shortly"

Once the three of them began to set out, Torfindel looked up at Aglar
and sighed "Shortly indeed, I give them a few more paces"

Aglar looked down and placed his hand on his shoulder "What do you
think will happen first, my Adar showing? Or the horses stopping"

Gwee snorted as he shook his head "The horses stopping, it will cause
drama and I think my friend...uh...your Adar likes drama"

Just as Torfindel finished his words, all three horses stopped
abruptly, nearly sending their riders over their heads, then turned
around and quickly returned.

Elrond frowned as they moved close "What is wrong, did you forget
something?"

Elladan shook his head and tried to get his horse to move "Nay Adar,
they will not listen"

Sliding off Asfaloth's back, Glorfindel moved around to his front and
sighed "What is wrong my friend, why will you not..."

Everyone turned as Mandos appeared "They will not go, because I will
not let them"

Torfindel looked up at Aglar and rolled his eyes "He is my friend"

Aglar shook his head and sighed as he patted the top of Torfindel's
head "I know Gwee, and I am sorry"

Gwee giggled at the comment, then gasped when Aglar swiftly grabbed
Elladan as he tried to lunge for his father "Ella nay!"

Struggling in the red elf's arms, Elladan grit his teeth "They are my
ionath! They are Only 40 and alone! They have never been outside the
borders of Imladris! My lord saes! Why will you not let us go and
retrieve them...saes, they have never fought anything larger then a
boar!!"

Mandos drew closer and arched his brow "As I said before, the path
they are on must be followed. It is important that they do this"

Torfindel grabbed the Doomsmans robe and yanked "Will they be alright?"

Releasing a large smile, Mandos tilted his head "They have each other,
they will be fine"

Elladan took a deep breath, gave Rumil a kiss, then stepped close "My
lord, if you will not let us go and get them...would you at least tell
us where they are going?"

Seeing the pained look in Elladan and Rumil's eyes, Mandos sighed
"Aglar, I must go now...tell them what they want to know"

Aglar narrowed his eyes and growled "Oh hannon le Adar, leave me to
the wolves!"

Once Mandos vanished, Aglar found himself surrounded "Alright everyone
calm yourselves, it does no good to kill the messenger"

Glorduin took his loves hand and gave it a squeeze "You best speak
Aglar, Elladan may have went for your Adar, but look at Rumils face"

The red elf took a deep breath, Rumil had carried and birthed Vel and
Ron and looked like he was ready to eat him alive "Alright,
alright...they are searching for eldars to assist them, they are very
confused about their feelings and felt that strangers would be
impartial. They are traveling to Dunland"

Elladan furrowed his brow "Dunland...why would they go there. Why did
they not go to...to..."

Aglar tilted his head "Go where Elladan...you tell me where they could
go where no one would contact Imladris upon their arrival"

Elrond sighed as he placed his hand on his sons shoulder "Everyone
gathered here has ties to every known elven community"

Still confused, Rumil shook his head "But why Dunland then"

Elrond, Thranduil, Cirdan and Glorfindel exchanged a look and Cirdan
sighed "There is a small forest and...*sigh*...there is a small
community of...of Avarin elves that reside there"

Elladan's eyes widened "Avari"

Elrond nodded "Aye ion, I attempted to extend my hand in friendship to
them...I sent two riders, one warrior and one healer to deliver a
letter to whoever they have as their leader but..."

"But what Adar"

"The riders returned...uh, distressed"

"Who were they Adar...are they still here in Rivendell?"

Elrond took a deep breath "The warrior sailed not long after his
return...the uh...the healer is in the healing wing right now
and...wait! Elladan come back here!"

~*~*~

Bursting through the door, Elladan grabbed Tordren "Are you the healer
that met the Avari?!"

Receiving a confused look, Elladan move from elf to elf with the same
question.

When the group arrived at the healing wing, Elrond groaned when he
noticed that Elladan was grabbing and questioning his staff "Elladan!
Cease this and calm down!"

Stopping his actions, the elder twin took a deep breath, then noticed
someone move. His gaze falling upon the healer, he took a step closer
"Are you..."

*Growl-Hiss!!*

Tordren moved between them and held up his hands "You do not want to
grab him prince Elladan...trust me"

Swallowing hard, Elladan slowly moved closer "Saes...my...my ionath
are traveling alone to...they are looking for the Avarin elves that..."

*Hiss!!*

Having never been hissed at before and unsure how to proceed, Elladan
turned around at gave his father a pleading look.

Before Elrond could utter a word, Torfindel walked over "Saes Thoniel,
you know Vel and Ron...they went there alone. You have met these
elves, will...will they harm Vel and Ron? What did these elves do to
you...saes help us"

The healer looked down at Torfindel and blinked "They tied us up and
hung us upside down from a tree...they...they went through our things
and found the letter from Lord Elrond. Many hours later, a ellon
approached us, he had the letter in his hand. They cut us down, gave
us our things and placed us on our horses. We quickly left. No reply
to the letter was given"

Torfindel tilted his head "So they did not hurt you?"

The healer frowned "They did not need to, the experience was
frightening enough...there was just something about them that
was...there...there was just something about them. We had not even
reached their border...this all accrued in a small group of trees that
we had to pass through to get there...though it was within sight of their
border. They did not need to harm us at that time Gwee, it was clear
to us that had we tried to stay and press the matter, harm would
befall us"

~*~*~

Thorvel shifted on his horse and Thoron chuckled "Perhaps we should
stop and stretch"

Vel nodded as he dropped from his horse "Agreed, my thighs are killing
me!"

Ron looked around and sighed "Should we set camp here? There are trees
in case of danger and a stream over there"

Vel nodded "Aye, you get some firewood and I will prep a pit"

Once they had settled down, Ron leaned against his brother "How far do
you think we still need to travel"

Vel stroked his younger half's hair and sighed "I would say that we
are at least half of the way there, perhaps a little more"

~*~*~

Later that night, Torfindel sat up in his bed and sighed "Mandos?"

Not but a blink after his call, the Doomsman appeared "Aye Gwee?"

*Sigh* "Will Vel and Ron be alright? I worry"

Mandos sat down on the edge of Torfindels bed and smiled "Cease your
fretting Gwee and sleep now"

"But I can not sleep with them out there all alone and..."

"They are not alone, they have each other. Now sleep or I shall go and
get my brother and have him Make you sleep"

~*~*~

Thoron lightly licked his lips as Thorvels hand caressed his lower
abdomen "Vel?"

"Aye Ron?"

"Are...are you going to uh...are you going to have me?"

Thorvel swallowed hard "Would you like for me to have you?"

Ron chewed on his lower lip "Well, from the sounds that come from Ada
and Adar's room it...it sounds pleasurable so..."

Vel smiled and slowly laid his naked body atop his twins, then panted
when their warm body's pressed together "Spread your legs Ron"

Complying instantly, Vel aligned himself, took a deep breath, then
pushed forward...

"Ow!"

"Sorry Ron, wait, let me..."

"Ooo ow-ow!"

Thorvel sat back on his heals and frowned "Roll over, perhaps we
should try that hands and knees position"

Rolling over onto his stomach, Thoron got onto his hands and knees.
Kneeling behind his younger half, Thorvel again, aligned himself and
slowly pushed forward...

"Ow! Vel!"

"Here...let me try..."

"Ow daro daro!"

Thoron frowned as he rubbed his cheeks "That really hurts!"

Thorvel mirrored his frown "I do not understand...what are we doing wrong"

Both the twins jumped to their feet and grabbed their weapons when
they heard a voice.....

"You did two things wrong. One, you did not prepare him, and Two, you
did not use oil to ease the way"

Forgetting their nakedness, Vel and Ron stood their ground ""Who are
you, show yourself!!""

Moments later, the twins watched as a man emerged from behind one of
the trees "Calm yourselves you need not fear me"

Thorvel narrowed his eyes "We asked you who you were, an honorable
adan would answer!"

The man tilted his head as he thought 'They are elves aye, but they
must also be young', "My name is Dunhere, and as I said, I mean you no
harm"

As Thorvel kept up his guard, Thoron felt the mans mind, then placed
his hand on his twins shoulder "He speaks the truth"
