Hi all, this is my third story all though I've only put up one other than this one! (my first fan fic, crashed and burned!) I really have no idea where this one came from (though it probably had something to do w/ cookies, milk, Gatorade, and life savers!) Oh well hope it's funny. ^.^ (For all of you who don't know, A/n means "authors note", see it took me a while to find this out)
Disclaimer: Unfortunately I do not own any of the lotr characters! But I do own the girl named Christia, because that is the real ME! And you can't have me… unless you're a really, really hunky guy! (Snicker, snicker)

Chapter 1: One very strange day!
I'd woken up with a sudden jolt, and looked straight at my clock! "Awe crap" I cried as I realized that it was 7:48 am! Which meant that I had 12 stupid minutes to get to school! I literally leapt out of bed and in which the process of doing so I got my foot caught on my own bed covers and flopped face forward straight to the ground! (a/n: ouch!) I could tell this was the beginning to great day all right!
I was now limp running out of my driveway, not because I hurt myself this morning but because I didn't have my left shoe on all the way! Somehow I'd actually changed, picked out an outfit, changed into it, brushed and semi-fixed my hair in about 10 minutes! I started get my left shoe on right and things started to look up for me. I'd actually had a chance of possibly making it to school on time! Still, I didn't slow down my pace! Though if I had, I probably would have noticed that the Tucson desert around me was disappearing along with the houses! But nope, I just kept my sights on my school that I could now see! I was running through my last few seconds to get to my classroom! I was almost at my school gate, but then it just disappeared!
I started to look around desperately to see where my school had gone! (a/n; aren't I smart?) "Oh no, now I'm defiantly late for school!" I whimpered. Just when I was thinking I actually had a chance to get to school on time, it disappeared! (a/n: don't you just hate it when that happens?) It was then that I'd begun to notice the "subtle" changes around me. For some strange reason there was green grass all around me (this is strange for me because Tucson is desert) and there were big old evergreen trees popping up all around me. They were really popping up all around me, with a popping noise and everything! (a/n: honestly, they really were!) I was starting to panic! "What the heck was going on around here?" I questioned madly in my mind!
Just then I started to here this weird drumming noise and so of coarse I turned to see what it was… "Aagh," I screamed as I saw exactly what it was! It was three evil looking people on three evil looking horses so of coarse I ran! I was having a hard running as fast as I could because A-I still had my back pack on, and B-I was still tired from just running a little while ago! After a while of running from the evil-riders that were gaining on me, I started to notice that I wasn't running alone. There were four really short people with really curly hair running with me!
I started to feel better now that I wasn't alone, but I also felt awkward around these strange people. Well back to my story! The evil riders were starting to get closer to us! Then the short person with dark hair yelled out "this way!" He then jumped behind some big trees and the three other small people fallowed him, " I guess I should go with them," I thought in my head. So we were all behind this tree trunk and we figured we should hide under one of its roots so we did. The evil creepy rider stopped by the tree in which we were hiding, and then it slowly got off its horse. "What is that thing!" I pondered over and over again in my mind. The person leaned over right over our heads and placed its dark creepy hands right on the edge of the trunk that we were hiding under! It even said something in a weird raspy voice though I'm not sure what. But as he did so tons of creepy crawly things started to appear all around us. I was so horrified that I al most screamed, but I bit my lip and tried to hold back my urge to jump up and run. I began to tremble as something slid down my sweatshirt, but I still held my horror in.
(a/n: eeewy! Yucky! Author begins to shiver)
Though eventually the evil person did leave, it seemed to have taken forever! As soon as I was sure that the evil rider was far enough away I jumped up and began to cry, scream, and dance around trying to get those creepy stuff out of my sweatshirt. Though coincidently the four little did the same accept that they weren't crying. After we were all sure that we'd gotten all the creepy crawlies out, the four little people began to eye ball me! So of coarse I began eye balling the four short dudes before me. After a few Moments one of the short dudes came forward and spoke "Who are you?" "Who, me? I'm Christia" I responded Ignorantly. "What was your name again?" asked the same short dude. "My name is Christia. Its like Christian but without an n." For most people this would have been Irritating but I was use to it. (a/n: * sigh * so true!) Now it was my turn to ask the questions! "So who are you all?" I asked, returning the favor. The same little guy spoke up to answer for them all "well, I'm Frodo, this here's Sam, That guy over there is Merry, and he's Merry's cousin Pippin." I was laughing so hard inside! "Okay, so you're Todo, you're Sam, you're Merry, and you're Pipey," I said trying to verify their names without laughing. "I'm sorry but my Name is not Todo, its Frodo," said the dark haired dude. "Yeah and my name isn't Pipey, It's Pippin!" Said the one that was a cousin to Merry. "Ooops, sorry!" I said apologetically.
After awhile of this question game we got to know some things about each other such as that they are hobbits, witch are people who are half the size of the average person. They thought I was strange for some reason and asked me questions like how come my skin was darker? See they'd never seen an Asian ever part Asian person before, so I had to explain that there were different colored people! They even asked me Questions about my clothes especially my jeans! They had never seen jean material before! Though they still thought of me as strange in the end, I got their approval to travel with them since I wasn't from round here.

Sorry that was kind of a lame ending to this chapter but all my sugar ran out! Oh well you all like it! Please, please, pleas, review! Also I never read the book so this is based off what I can remember from the movie, that is also why they aren't speaking in old English!
