That evening, a storm arrived. The rain poured and lightning lit up the sky in bright streaks, making way for the booming thunder. The clouds let forth the water in voluminous amounts, soaking everyone and everything that dared the be exposed.
Thranduil had just tucked his son in bed when it started. He was reading in his chambers as Legolas slept, reclining on a sofa with his robes draped unceremoniously around him.
Suddenly, and exceptionally loud clap of thunder sounded. Lightning flashed seemingly even brighter and thunder began to roar continuously, waking Legolas up from his slumber.
"Ada! Ada! Come quickly! Someone's trying to kill me! Please, Ada! Come quick!" Legolas cried, curled up beneath his blankets and pillows, desperately trying to protect himself.
Thranduil heard his son and swiftly hurried toward the room where his cowering little leaf lay. As he entered the room, he saw Legolas sitting up in bed with the covers over him, shaking uncontrollably. The small sobs wracking the little body.
Thranduil rushed over to the bed and began to comfort Legolas without hesitation, "Legolas, it's okay. I'm here now, nothing can hurt you." Thranduil knew that no one was trying to kill Legolas, but that Legolas was just afraid of the strange noise. He never had to worry because he always had a guard posted outside of the door.
"Ada, is that you?" Legolas whispered as he peeked out from under the covers.
"Yes, it is me, ion nin. Please don't be scared, I am here."
Legolas slowly pulled the covers off and climbed into Thranduil's arms, curling his own up against the larger elf. The king gently stood up with Legolas in his arms, and walked out of the Legolas' room. He paused right outside the doorway and turned to the guard who was standing at attention.
"You may have the night off," he told the guard.
"Thank you, my lord," he answered as he then bowed and walked off. After the guard had gone, Thranduil continued his journey down the hall and back towards his own chambers.
The halls were quiet besides the occasional bout of thunder and Legolas quickly began to calm down and relax in his father's arms.
When Thranduil reached his room, he carefully opened the door, as not to wake Legolas who had fallen asleep, and walked in. The sky was still kept alight by the lightning, but it no longer bothered the young prince, for he was in his father's arms and Legolas always felt safe with his Ada.
Thranduil tucked Legolas in his own bed before climbing in on the other side of the bed.
"Sleep well, my little leaf," he whispered, leaning over and giving his little son a kiss on the forehead. Then, Thranduil blew out the candle that he had been reading by, and laid down beside Legolas, pulling his tiny son into his warm embrace.
The two quickly fell asleep, warm and comfortable in the Woodland Realm and sheltered from the raging storm outside.
