Chapter 1: A New Hope
Frina, the daughter of Sam Gamgee's youngest daughter Goldilocks and Pippin Took's son Faramir I, stared into the beautiful fields of Hobbiton as she worked with her mother.
"Frina! Pay attention. This will be very valuable to you in the future," Goldilocks shouted when she noticed her daughter wasn't churning the butter as she was supposed to have been doing.
"Mother, I am destined to be out there. I just know it. There is a rumor of a shadow in the east again, like in the time of Grandfather and Uncle Frodo," Frina replied. She had the bravery of her grandfather and twice the spunk.
"Nonsense. The world has been at peace since Uncle Frodo and Grandfather Gamgee got rid of the One Ring thirty years ago."
"What's all this about your father's adventure with the destruction of the One Ring?" Faramir inquired as he entered the kitchen.
"Explain to your daughter that there is no shadow rising in the east, as I have been trying to explain to her for several days now," Goldilocks replied as she turned to face her husband.
"MY daughter. The last time I checked, YOU were the one who gave birth to her. Besides, she IS right. Another dark lord has come to power in Mordor," Faramir retorted.
"See? I told you. A seer in town said that I would be the one to help, as well as several of the Fellowship's future generations," retorted Frina.
"Everyone knows that the seer doesn't know what she talks about," replied Goldilocks.
"Actually, she is quite accurate. She did, after all, predict that your father would be elected mayor over five times after Frodo stepped down," replied Faramir.
"Maybe you're right, but just to be sure, I'd contact the old members' families and see if what they say is true. It's better that we ask of the comings and goings of the world of the Big People before making a trip to Rivendell that may be worthless."
"Good idea. As Frina is the one who this involves, she shall ask, though she shall have no problems with contacting Enaster. He is, after all, her third cousin."
Enaster was the son of Meriadoc, or Merry, Brandybuck and Diamond of Long Cleeve. He was a handsome young man around Frina's age, and is just as mischievous as his father. He had curly auburn hair like his mother and was built very much like his father, only slightly slimmer.
Frina was quickly shoved into the house by her parents. As soon as she sat at the desk, a quill, piece of parchment and ink well was thrust at her.
"Hurry up and start. If there truly is a danger, then we need these sent out as soon as possible," said Faramir.
Not wanting to infuriate her father, she immediately sat down and got to work. She started on the ones furthest from the Shire, meaning Enascious, Arwen and Aragorn's daughter, a talented swordswoman and bowman.
A./N.: What do you think? I know it's not as long, but at least it works. I hope you enjoy. Flames, as I said in the summary, are perfectly acceptable. If you like it, feel free to review and tell your friends.
