Porridge, Spoons and Impatient Guards

~~*~~

Splat! One after another each porridge missile hit its target.

Giggles ensured afterwards and a very ragged looking elf attempted to grab the spoon.

Worn sword carrying hands came up to wipe the sticky substance off of their faces. And an elder brother sat in his chair clutching his stomach from too much laughing.

A baby elf crawled off its chair and ensnared a chase across the slippery floors of the dining hall.

Guards toppled over each other attempting to catch the golden haired baby elfling.

His soft eyes brightened as he saw his chase became lengthened as every guard in the hall tried to grab his wriggling little arms or legs.

The bronze spoon he clutched in his little fist tapped against the tiles as he crawled onwards.

‘Catch him! Melrue get off your bottom and help! Telpion hurry up he is getting away!’ Cried his impatient ada, also his golden hair swaying as he edged closer to the baby. Who was smiling wryly with a dry baby grin on his face, waving the spoon.

“Lass….come to ada” Thranduil whispered putting his arms out and smiling weakly, the daily routine.

As Thranduil came closer, Legolas frowned then screeched “NOOOOO Ada!’ Then began hurridly crawling away with an exasperated father in tow.

An older brother came through the hallway and saw his baby brother then he dived across the tiles. Coming so close to the baby but sliding to his father’s feet,

‘I was close?’ He said and carefully eyed his irritated Ada then meekly got up and started chasing the baby again.

‘Yes Telpion, you were close’ His father said dryly and watched his other son go for a dive but fatefully miss and hit an unfortunate guard, thus bringing him to the floor too.

“AI WHY THE VALAR MUST WE BESTOW THIS ELFLING!” Bellowed Thranduil threw up his arms and ran down the hall after Legolas.

For next part of the morning, every guard on duty was called routinely to chase after the elfling, weaving in and out of the castle. Never thus advancing on it till Legolas cornered in the garden.

One after the other, the circle of guards thrusted forth slowly and Telpion, Melrue and Thranduil came through.

Legolas cried and wriggled trying to find a way out, then his Ada came at him and he threw the spoon with all his might.

“Ai!’ His father exclaimed as the bronze spoon thumped him right between the eyes. Melrue and Telpion laughed raucously at their youngest brothers antics then let Lass climb into their arms.

“I nap time” were the last words that came out from the bundle then, there was cherished silence.

THE END
