Forbidden Falls

Ch19

Everyone followed as Glorfindel
dragged the reluctant prince down the hall. Thranduil suddenly furrowed his
brow “Ion, where Erintur?”

Legolas frowned and tried to
slow there walking to no avail “He try chase me, I say daro, but he keep
trying”

Thranduil shook his head and
took a deep breath “Legolas, where your brother”

The prince looked back and
glared “Still in stables, I knock Erintur out!”

Elrohir snorted “How” then
sobered as Erestor gave him a stern look.

Legolas shrugged “Erintur loose
mind cut me! I fist his face!”

Thranduil groaned and shook his
head. Glorfindel then tightened his hold on the prince and stopped “We here
Legolas”

The prince took a deep breath
and looked up at the golden warrior “Not want be here” “I know Legolas, but you
hurt, Elladan help”

The prince tilted his head and
bit his lip “Swear me Elladan behind door, swear me safe healer not bad. One
thing look hand…” Legolas then pointed to his chest “Th…this different”

Glorfindel pulled him close and
smiled as he opened the door “I swear Legolas, he safe healer…tul”

As everyone entered, Elladan
turned and paled when he noticed the blood covered prince “Legolas! Valar
wh…what happened!”

The prince shrugged and looked
away “I fine, tend self”

Elladan slowly walked forward,
hoping that he would not spook the prince and reverse any trust he had earned
“Legolas, saes, I worry let…let see?”

Glorfindel huffed, pulled
Legolas to one of the examining tables, lifted him up, plopped the prince on
it, then leaned forward and smiled “Let Elladan tend…trust Elladan”

Legolas looked over to his
father and worried his brow “Ada stay me?” Thranduil smiled as he nodded “Nai
ion I stay…be over there, we all be over there”

The prince watched as everyone
walked over to a small sitting area, giving him some mild privacy, but still
within full view. Elladan furrowed his brow and thought ‘He is so
frightened, I need to elevate his mood some’ The elder twin then slowly
walked forward and arched his brow while he smiled “So…not bring me morning
meal?”

Legolas snorted and shook his
head “Nay”

Elladan then sighed and
softened his features “Remove tunic for me?” The prince took a deep breath and
slowly pulled the ruined tunic off.

The elder twin then grabbed
some blotting cloths “Hannon le Legolas, now lay back for…” “Nay!!”

Elladan quickly put up his
hands “Alright…you not lay back, sitting fine”

Mirduin furrowed his brow and
stood “Prince Elladan, may I speak with you for a moment?”

Thranduil looked up and tilted
his head “What’s wrong Duin” “Just a moment my lord”

When Elladan walked over, he
kept his distance, knowing that Mirduin disliked closeness “Nai archer
Mirduin?” “I have some suggestions that may help with your treatment of the
prince”

The elder twin arched his brow “Oh by all means, what are
they. I do not want to loose what little ground I have gained”

Mirduin nodded “Thalos always
tended from the same side you are on, have the prince reverse and face the
other side of the table…this will change his visual of your approach and he may
then not associate memories as easily. I know it is routine for bloody clothes
to be removed, leave his leggings alone, he is not dense, he will change them
privately when you are finished.”

Mirduin then cleared his throat
“Thalos always wanted me to lay back and hold still, keep the prince sitting,
and even ask him for his assistance, keep him involved with his care…and most
important…do not make any grunting sounds”

Elladan and the others questioned
there brows and Mirduin swallowed hard, glanced to Glorfindel, then back to
Elladan “Th…Thalos enjoyed pleasuring himself while he suckled on my…err…well,
he would then rub his arousal all over my pr…privets and face when…when he
would achieve his release…he would literally grunt out his release…I would
guarantee that he did these things to the prince”

Thranduil closed his eyes and
shook his head “I think I am going to be sick”

Elladan took a deep breath and
wiped his eyes “Hannon le for your help, I know that that was not easy to speak
of…hannon le” The elder twin then turned and made his way back.

Glorfindel whipped his eyes on
his sleeve and slowly placed his arm around the archer as he sat back down
“He…he did those things to you?”

Mirduin sighed “Nai, among
other and more fouler things…the fact that prince Legolas actually remained on
that table when Elladan walked away and came over…I would have fled at
the opportunity. I admire the prince greatly. He endured the torture to protect
his Adar and brother, killed the foul monster, survived alone in the wilds at
his age…” The archer then shook his head and sighed “How can you not
respect an elf with that strong of a fea…he inspires me to face my
fears”

When Elladan returned, he
grabbed the trey of supplies and took them to the other side of the table, then
returned and grabbed the bowl of water.

Legolas furrowed his brow as he
watched him “What doing”

Elladan smiled and set the bowl
down “Want you turn, face other way”

The prince braced himself, then
flung his legs over the table, and scooted to the edge “Like this?” “Nai,
hannon le…sit tall”

Legolas sat up straight and
Elladan began to clean the cut “Tis shallow, not need stitches…just tending”

Elrond looked on proudly as his
firstborn tended to the nervous prince, then smiled as he watched Elladan ask
Legolas to hand him some blotting cloths, and the princes calmer compliance and
thought ‘Ai, Elladan will make a fine Master Healer someday’

Elladan then stood and shook a
scolding finger at the prince “Rules of care”

Legolas sighed and rolled his
eyes “What Elladan’s rules”

Elladan smiled, not missing the
fact that Legolas just called him by his name alone, leaving out the healer
title “No tight or binding tunics, loose shirts only. Sleep only back or
sides…back is best. Must come me every day to tend”

Legolas swallowed hard “Healing
chamber every day?”

The elder twin shook his head
“Nay, we find spot you comfortable, go there” Legolas thought for a moment and
sighed “Fine, agree rules of care. I go now? Want change leggings wash self”

Elladan nodded “Nai, keep chest dry” The elder twin then
took his own underlay and draped it over the princes shoulders “Just give back
me later” Legolas looked at the tunic and blinked surprised “Ha…hannon le
Elladan”

A few moments later, Erintur stumbled in while rubbing his
jaw and Thranduil narrowed his eyes “Ion! What were you thinking!”

The crown prince winced and quickly walked over to his
younger brother and smiled when he noticed that Legolas was holding still and
not struggling as Elladan buttoned up the underlay.

When Legolas noticed him he growled, “What wrong you! You
loose mind?!” the prince then lifted the underlay “Look what you did me!”

Erintur sighed heavily “I am sorry Legolas truly, I just
wanted you to come here and see that Elladan wasn’t going to hurt you and…”

Legolas shook his head confused “Daro to fast” and then
looked to Elladan “What want?”

The elder twin ignored Legolas and furrowed his brow as he
narrowed his eyes “You…you mean you hurt him on purpose?”

Elrond and Elrohir winced and simultaneously drew
concerned breaths and Elrohir whispered “Ooo not good”

Legolas blinked in shock and scrambled over to his father
as Elladan pulled back and punched Erintur square in the face.

After a moment, Glorfindel stepped in and lifted the
punchy Peredhil off of the Mirkwood prince. As he was being lifted away,
Thranduil leaned close to Elrond and whispered, “I think we are seeing the
warrior side right now, the healer side seems to have all but disappeared”

Elrond chuckled “He is more like me then he knows, Elrohir
on the other hand, is much like his Naneth”

Thranduil shook his head and sighed “Well, this was a good
lesson on ‘the ramifications of poor decision making’ if I ever saw one” Elrond
smirked and nodded “Aye, that it was”

Legolas drew close to his father and tilted his head “Ada,
what happened…why Elladan so…”

Thranduil held up his hand “Elladan defending you, not
like you hurt. Angry at brother” Legolas blinked and furrowed his brow “Elladan
defend?”

The king leaned close “Nai, seems Erintur plan cut you,
prove to you Elladan good healer…so…Elladan angry at brother for bad thinking”

Legolas looked over at the elder twin as Glorfindel tried
to calm him, and for the fist time in a long time, as he focused on what
Elladan was saying, he actually understood a full sentence “How dare you hurt
Legolas! You ever do that again and I will beat you senseless!”
