Invading the Fellowship
Part Two
"So…" said Katie.
"We've been kicked out of Rivendell! Go us!!"
"It's
all his fault!" Sami pointed at Gimli, simply because the Dwarf of the
party hadn't been mentioned yet.
"Argh!
Ich! Ech! Auch. Ach. Argh again. What did I do?" Gimli the extremely ugly
little dwarf grunted.
"I
dunno," Sami replied. "Just felt that someone needed to mention your
name."
"Argh."
"He
needs a wider vocabulary," Renee whispered.
"Yeah,"
Megan agreed. "Sounds like Gollum with his limited vocab."
"Hey
now," Katie said, "Gollum is actually a very intelligent…thing…"
"Suuuuuuuure…"
Megan commented sarcastically.
It was at
that moment the four girls realized the rest of the Fellowship was staring at
them rather oddly…again.
"What
are you looking at?" Katie asked. Sam looked at her, and she ran to hide
behind Haldir.
"Hey!"
Sami exclaimed. "Where'd you come from?"
"Came
to protect Miss Katie from the Evil Hobbit." He glared menacingly at Sam,
and Sam ran to attach himself to Frodo. Frodo looked disturbed by this.
"Anyways,"
Megan began. "Where exactly are we going again?"
"We're
off to destroy the Ring…" Renee sang.
"The
evil, bad Ring of Sauron…" Sami chimed in. The two of them skipped around
in circles.
"Hey!"
Megan shouted suddenly, making Sami and Renee trip over each other. Megan
looked around. "Where'd the rest of the Fellowship go?"
"Um…there
they are!" Katie exclaimed. They ran down the road to catch up with the
rest of them.
"Phew,"
Renee said. "You guys almost left us behind!"
"Damn,"
said Boromir.
"What
was that?" Megan asked sharply.
"Oh,
nothing!" He smiled angelically.
"Ew!
Don't do that!" Sami cried.
"Do
what?" Pippin asked.
"Smile!"
she answered, shrieking. "Ew, ew! Don't you have any Altoids? Or Crest®
Whitening toothpaste?"
"What?"
Merry, not to mention the rest of the Fellowship, was obviously confused.
"Never
mind."
"Here,
I have gum!" Katie pulled out a huge bag.
"You always
have gum." Megan rolled her eyes. "Your locker's full of it!"
"Here,"
Katie tossed a piece a Boromir, who amused himself with the wrapper. Katie felt
a tap on her shoulder. She looked up to see Legolas. "XD…hi…"
"Do
you have any Dentyne Ice?" he asked, blinking.
"I
have Orbit!" Sami piped up, tossing a piece to Legolas.
"That's not fair!" Renee
pouted at Katie. "How come he asked you for gum and not me?"
"Well, she has the bag,"
Aragorn pointed out the obvious. He took it and distributed the gum throughout
the Fellowship. "Now you all have an endless supply of gum."
"And I still have all of
mine!" Katie looked into the bag. "Must be one of those
food-multiplying Jesus tricks.
"Another what?" Pippin
asked.
"…XD…never mind." Katie
shoved the bag back into her backpack. "Hey…where'd all my pudding
go?"
"I didn't take it. Hey,
what's that?" Sami pointed to a bunch of rocks in the distance.
"It's the ruins of
stuff," Gandalf replied, heading to the front of the pack. "We'll
camp there for the night." He dragged the group towards the rocks.
"Ahh!" Renee fell down
after tripping on a rock. "My ankle! I think I sprained it!"
"Faker." Sami mumbled.
"Let me see it," Legolas
said, bending down next to her.
"XD…I'd take a picture, but
someone stole my camera," Katie said, while eating Chex Mix.
"I have one!" Megan
snapped a picture. "Gee, Sami looks mad." She pointed over to her,
and Katie noticed she had turned red and there was steam coming out of her
ears.
"Argh, I'm mad too!"
Gimli grumbled. "Don't have any beer."
"That, or you're
constipated," Pippin said.
"Argh!" Gimli said again,
then waddled over to a rock and sat down.
"With your ankle that badly
sprained, you can't walk." Legolas picked up Renee. "I shall carry
you the rest of the way there."
"Here," Katie said to
Sami, handing her a baseball bat. "Sam's over there. Go vent your
anger…blow off some steam." Grumbling, Sami took the bat and dragged Sam
behind a rock. The rest of the Fellowship winced as they heard very painful
screams.
"The enemy could be close
behind!" Frodo blurted out. "Let's hurry up and get to the
rocks!"
"K. Sami! C'mon!" Megan
called. Sami reappeared, dragging a bruised and unconscious Samwise behind her,
and followed them up the hill to the rocks.
"Grrrrrr…" Sami griped
as she watched Legolas mend Renee's foot.
"Hey…where's Katie?"
Megan asked. "Found her pudding. Merry had it."
"I was hungry!"
Merry insisted. "She dragged Frodo off to go hunting for mushrooms
anyway."
"What about Sam?"
"He's over there." Merry
pointed to the fat hobbit chained to a log. "Haldir's chained him up after
following them into the woods."
"Keep off of it for a few
days and you'll be fine." Legolas finished wrapping Renee's ankle.
"Argh! Fancy
elf…stupid…" Gimli complained.
"Uh…yeah…" Megan nodded.
"Whatever you say. Hey, what's for dinner?"
"Crisp bacon and
potatoes." Pippin poked the potatoes in the fire.
"Oooooh…yummy." Megan
grinned. "But I have an urge for fishsticks.
"Me too!" Renee and Sami
said in unison.
"I think there's a box in my
backpack." Katie walked up, carrying a basket of mushrooms.
"Here, let's cook them."
Pippin quickly grabbed the mushrooms and started cooking them.
"Okay, okay!" Katie
blinked. "Chill."
"Mushroom good in the stomach
taste." Gandalf said, then fell over.
Katie, Sami, Renee, and Megan all
looked at each other, then said simultaneously, "Pipeweed."
"Dinner's ready!" Pippin
announced. "Careful with the potatoes they're hot!"
"All right. Perfect."
Sami picked up a potato and flung it at Sam's head.
"Ahh!" Sam cried,
ducking as the potato narrowly missed his head. "You almost hit me!"
"Yeah I know…I've got bad
aim…" she faked sympathy.
"Here…" Legolas handed
Renee a cooled potato. "It's not much, but you need your strength. Eat
up!"
"I CAN'T TAKE IT
ANYMORE!" Sami kicked Gimli clear across the camp.
"What did he do?" Megan
asked, dropping a hot potato down the back of Sam's shirt.
"Breathed." With that,
Sami stormed off to her bed.
"Woohoo! Nice kick, Sami! You
should have gone out for soccer!" Renee yelled after her.
There was the sound of yelling in
the distance.
"Er, okay," said
Aragorn. "I must go, I will search the area. I will be back."
"Er, okay," Katie
mocked. Aragorn shot her an angry glance, then left. "Haha!" she
laughed.
All of the sudden, they heard
rocks crumbling. Someone was invading their camp! The four hobbits went into
their little circle, backs against each other. Katie started digging stuff out
of her backpack.
"Okay…have a surfboard, a
baseball bat, another stick…why do I have that in there?"
Everyone else was starting to
suspect that her backpack was not really a backpack, but instead a bottomless
pit. Sam tried to steal a cookie she had pulled out. She motioned for Haldir,
who proceeded to try to throw Sam off the side of the cliff. Then, a shadow
moved in the distance.
"Ha! The wraiths! Sweet! I
wanna picture!" Megan said, whipping her camera back out.
"Oh great, what fun this will
be," Sami said as Legolas went to stand in front of Renee and guard her.
"Wait, wait, wait, I got
it!" Katie said. "Haldir, you take the surfboard and hit the first
one in the face. I'll take out the second one with the bat, Megan you take the
stick, and Sami, you take the Sam and chuck him at the fourth one. Ready, now!
Everyone looked at her strangely.
"Hey, I'm not a light
traveler!"
"Ah, okay," said
Boromir.
"Yeah. Now on my mark, get
set, NOW!!"
"I got one! Score!" Sami
cheered as she sent Sam flying into the nearest wraith.
"We got four! Yes!"
Katie cried.
"AH! AH!" Frodo screamed
from the corner.
"What? What?" Katie
cried frantically.
"Oh no!" Megan
exclaimed. "He's been stabbed by the Nazgul!"
"Noooo!" Sam shouted,
running over to Frodo.
"HEY! GET AWAY FROM MY
HOBBIT!" Katie yelled.
Sam was about to retort, but then
saw Haldir and backed off.
"Arrrrrrrrgh!" Aragorn
yelled, charging into the clearing. "Where are the evil Nazgul?"
"Hey, bud, um, well, we
already chased them away. I think you were a bit, you know, LATE!" Katie
screamed.
"Oh, yes, well, sorry,"
Aragorn apologized.
"Hellooooo! The cute little
hobbit just got stabbed over here!" Frodo said.
"Oh, yeah," Megan said.
"Ahem. Frodo! No! Someone help him!!"
Aragorn raced over to him and
started barking orders. "Sam, go get this flower-thing! Bring it back, now
hurry!"
Sam looked at him evilly, but then
walked away. "It's to save Mr. Frodo…" he mumbled.
"Okay, let's go, come
on!" Katie yelled. "Hurry up, what're you waitin' for?"
"Well, for Sam to get
back," Merry replied uncertainly.
"Uh, that's why we should be going!"
Katie pushed them along. "Come on, come on! Pick up Frodo, Aragorn!
At that moment, Sam came running
back. "Found it!"
"Dammit," Sami muttered.
Sam shot her a glance, but she pointed at Katie who pointed at Haldir. Sam ran
over to Aragorn and Frodo.
"Nice little security
system," Renee commented.
"I want a bodyguard,"
Megan whined.
"I will protect you!"
Gimli was now back again.
"But you're a ugly little
dwarf with chunky braids and a big helmet."
"Argh! So?"
"Well…you're not exactly very
impressive-looking."
"Yeah," Katie stuck her
tongue out at Gimli. "You're not as cool as Haldir."
"I think Frodo's gonna
die…" Renee pointed to Frodo, who was starting to turn green.
"No he won't," Sami
said. "You read the books, didn't you?"
"Hey!" Arwen rode up on
her horse. "Let me take him to Rivendell and fix him up."
"But…didn't we just come from
Rivendell? Megan pointed out.
"…So?" Sami blinked.
"Well just be in Rivendell again for a few days…"
"That would be good."
Legolas nodded, picking up Renee. "Then you can get plenty of rest."
Katie handed Sami the bat again,
and she dragged Sam behind a tree. Everyone tried to ignore Sam's voice up
three octaves.
"I will take Frodo there!
Bye!" Arwen pulled Frodo up on the horse and rode off laughing.
"Katie, she rode off with
your hobbit!" Megan turned to Katie.
"I have back-up
hobbits." She pointed to Pippin.
"Hey! You can't have Pippin!
He's mine!" Renee glared at her.
"You have Legolas, so hush
up." Katie snapped her fingers. Haldir picked her up and put her on his
back, carrying her piggy-back style. "XD…this is the life."
"That's not fair!" Megan
wailed. She looked over and saw Gimli. "Er…I'll be fine walking…"
"K, we're there," Sami
announced.
"HUH?" The Fellowship
looked up.
"^_^ we were only two minutes away from
Rivendell!" Katie said, sliding off Haldir's back.
"That was a total waste of
time," Renee said as Legolas carried her to some Elf-house.
"Where's Mr. Frodo?" Sam
asked, looking around.
"He's resting," Elrond said, appearing. "You can see him in a bit."
