Invading the Fellowship

Part Nine

 

"Dude, what happens if we go back without the ring?" #8 asked #5.

"Thems Powerpuff Girls takes over!" Larry grunted. "They stole my birthday suit!"

"Dude, no one wants to see you naked," #3 adjusted his shades.

"Here." #7 wrapped up a nut in tinfoil and colored it with a yellow marker. "There's the ring. If he says something, we were tricked."

"Yeah," the rest of them agreed.

"Dammit Katie, quit jumping around!" Renee chucked a pillow at her.

"^-^ But it's a mattress room!" Katie jumped from one bed to another. "Whee!" With one more bounce, she disappeared into the covers.

"u.u We're never getting any sleep this way," Sami sighed.

The "Jaws" music came on from out of nowhere as Katie swam around in the blankets.

"EEE! ARAGORN!" Frodo ran screaming from the room, Sam behind him.

"ROAR!" Katie leapt out of the blankets, tackling Link.

"AAAAAAAAHH!" Link screamed, falling off the bed. Oliver, who had been sitting on the bed as well, fell over and hit Merry, who landed on Pippin, who toppled into Renee, who fell into Legolas, who collapsed into Ewan, who tripped over Sami, who knocked over Megan.

"KATIE!!" The fallen Fellowship glared at her.

She put on an innocent look and pointed to Link. "He did it."

"Wha—I did not!" Link whimpered.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Legolas pointed and laughed, thus Katie chucked a shoe at him. "OW!! T.T"

"Can we all just go to bed?" Oliver yawned, crawling onto the pallet. "We're starting off tomorrow."

"Do we gotta?" Megan whined. "I wanna stay here!"

"Yeah, sorry. G'night."

"They tricked you!" Saruman paced back and forth in front of the ringwraiths.

"Damn!" #6 snapped his fingers. "Those evil things…"

"Get thems critters!" Larry hollered. "And thems there Powerpuff Girls!"

"…Yeah…" Saruman blinked. "GO! Bring me the ring!"

"I can't sleep." Renee walked outside the house. "We're so gonna miss Lothlórien…hm?" she looked down below as Frodo ran by. Gollum was sleeping on guard duty, or else he'd have stopped him.

"What the din are you doing up?" Link suddenly asked from behind Renee.

"AH!" Renee jumped back. "Don't do that!"

"Sorry."

"I couldn't sleep so I came out here. I just saw Frodo run by." Renee watched the hobbit disappear into the thicket. "What're you doing here anyway?"

"¬o¬ Katie demanded food…" Link grumbled. "I wonder what Frodo is up to…"

"Let's follow him," Renee suggested. "Be careful, Gollum just woke up."

"Oneses, twoses, threeses, fourses…" Gollum paced back and forth. When the coast was clear, Renee and Link dashed across the path and hid behind a bush.

"Sméagol!" Gollum looked around.

"Don't breathe…" Link cautioned Renee in a whisper. Once Gollum's chanting resumed, the twosome headed further in after Frodo. "Wait." Link stopped. Reaching into a bush, he pulled out Sam.

"Hey!" Sam pulled out his pitchfork.

"Hi-YAH!" Renee sent a swift kick to his head, rendering him unconscious.

"Let's leave him here." Link shoved Sam back into the bushes. If Gollum finds him, he's a dead man."

"Hobbit," Renee corrected. Before Link could say anything, a loud giggle came from the left. "WTF?"

"Oh, Frodo…" a voice came.

"x.x I'm scared…" Link ran behind a tree.

"u.u Oh, come on." Renee dragged him to the rock. The two of them peered closely over the wall down at Frodo and Galadriel below.

"Frodo's the man!" They heard another voice.

"Link, what's going on here?" Renee demanded.

"I'm not even supposed to be in here, how would I know?"

Renee looked down again. What she saw was a big party in the mirror. Everyone was waving at Frodo, like they all wanted him there.

"Frodo, what are you doing?" Galadriel said, hurrying toward him.

"PAAAAAARRTAAAAAY!" Frodo yelled back.

"The Mirror of Galadriel should not be used like this!" Galadriel said, trying to knock him out of the way.

"What?"

"It is supposed to show you what can happen: past, present, and future."

"But I like it like this!" Frodo griped.

"No, it must be broken again. It was originally the Mirror of Erised that I bought half-price at Dumbledore's garage sale. Must be acting up again. Damn wizards!"

"Who?" Link asked Renee.

"Dumbledore. From Harry Potter. Same place that Oliver's from," Renee replied.

"Okay…whatever." They looked back down.

"One moment, I'll fix it," Galadriel said. She kicked it a few times, and poured some new water in. First it showed reruns of Friends for a bit, and then it began showing Barney.

"AAAAAAAAAAAH!! TURN IT OFF, TURN IT OFF!" Renee yelled.

Link covered her mouth. "SHHHH! Woman, you'll get us caught!"

Finally, it showed some hobbits running away form the orcs. Then it showed various other dark pictures…lots of fire, and evil-looking things. Frodo, captivated, moved closer.

"DO NOT TOUCH THE WATER!" Galadriel screamed. Then she muttered under her breath, "Twenty dollars a quart…can't afford to get dirty hobbits' hands in it…"

The eye of Sauron was now showing. Everywhere, there were whispers. They told the Ring to come back, demanding Frodo go to Mordor. Finally, Frodo threw himself back.

"That is what will happen…if…well, to put it blatantly, if you screw up, fail to go to Mordor, and let the Ring overtake you," Galadriel told him.

"But I don't want it anymore!" Frodo whined. "Here, Galadriel, you take it!" He shoved the Ring toward her.

"Hmm, and here I thought I was going to have to kill you!" She began chasing him in circles.

"Ahh! Help! Help me! I do want the Ring! I do want it!" Frodo said, running away from Galadriel and putting the Ring on his necklace.

"Indian-giver," Galadriel muttered. "I need the Ring. You would have a beautiful queen, not a dark lord. Give it to me now!"

"Lil' bit conceited there, eh?" Renee said, turning to Link.

"Mr. Frodo! Mr. Frodo!" They heard Sam's voice.

"SAM!! OVER HERE! HELP!"

Sam raced over with his pitchfork.

"Ow!" Galadriel cried as Sam poked her.

"Okay, well, I think they have this under control now," Renee said. "Off to the cafeteria?"

"Aye, aye," Link replied.

 

*~*

 

"We have vanilla cake, chocolate cake, carrot cake, banana-nut cake…" An Elven cafeteria lady explained the list of cakes they had.

"Uh…I guess we'll take…chocolate?" Link said.

"Ohh! Do you have cookies?" Renee exclaimed, jumping up and down.

"Sure do…we have plain, peanut butter, chocolate chip, double-chocolate chip, sugar, gingerbread, snickerdoodles…" the lady went on and on again.

"One of each!" Renee ordered.

The lady handed her a huge bag, then a greatly smaller one to Link. "Your cake," she told him.

"Yeah, okay, let's go." He pulled Renee along, who was eating cookies behind him. "Come on, come on, back to the house."

"Yeah, I know," Renee replied. "So what's up with Frodo? If I didn't know better, I'd say Galadriel likes him!!"

"Yeah, uh-huh, NO!" Link yelled. "He's a short, fat, little, ugly, hairy THING!"

"Link…are you jealous?" Renee asked slyly.

"NO! I'm n—"

"Link loves Galadriel, Link loves Galadriel!" Renee shouted in a singsong voice, skipping around.

">_< Sorry, 'bout this." He pulled out the Rod of Seasons and hit her on the head.

"Sooo sleepy," she muttered before blacking out.

"Much better! ^^" Link said, dragging her back to the house.

 

"We're back!" Link announced, dropping Renee on the ground.

Katie yawned and got up. "Did you get my food?" she demanded.

"OoOoOoO!" Cookies!" Pippin exclaimed, jumping up and grabbing the bag from the unconscious Renee.

"HEY!" she screamed, coming to. "Those are MINE!!"

"Hey, gimme some Pippin," Merry said.

"And me! I wanna cookie!" Megan chimed in.

"GIVE ME THEM NOW!" Renee tried to get her cookies back. There was a rather violent scuffle as everyone fought to get some.

"Yummy!" Sami said, emerging from the pile of tangled bodies. "Peanut butter!"

"Hey! I got them, remember?" Renee cried.

"Oh, yeah, here," Merry said, tossing her the last cookie.

"But this is raisin and walnut. I hate raisin and walnut," she whined.

"Oh, okay then!" Merry said brightly. He snatched the cookie back and crammed it into his mouth. "Mmmmm…"

Renee pouted. "All my cookies…"

"Harhar," Sami said.

"Argh!" Gimli suddenly grunted. "Can't find my axe!"

"Ewan had it last," Oliver told him.

"Uh-uh, you had it!" Ewan argued.

"Oh brother," Megan rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, ANYWAY," Katie said loudly.

"What?" Legolas asked.

"Hey…where're Sam and Frodo at?" Megan looked around.

"They're off with Link's new GIRLFRIEND!" Renee stuck her tongue out at Link.

"HIS WHAT?!" Katie screamed, waking all of Middle-Earth.
