"Are you sure you're ok Mindy?" My friend Maggie asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I said looking around.

"Mindy! You've been weird sense the day of the Lord of the Rings opening. What's up?" She asked.

"I can't tell you." I said.

"You keep telling me that! Why can't you tell me?" She asked.

"Because you wont believe me!" I said.

"Yes I will! I'm your best friend!" She said.

"I had a dream, the day before the opening, and I was a hobbit. It was so real it wasn't a dream! I was there!" I said.

"At the movie?" She asked.

"No! I was there in real life, back then! In the Shire! Sam and I were together…we kissed! And I touched them! It had to have been real!" I said.

"You said it yourself, it was just a dream." She said.

"There was something I didn't tell you, about the opening." I said.

"What?" She asked.

"Sean Astin knew my name! I wasn't wearing my tag." I said.

She looked weird.

"What? Maybe he just heard it." She said.

"No one said it. He knew me!" I said.

"That's nuts!" She said.

"I know! And I…I miss it!" I said.

She nodded, and looked at her watch.

"OH SHEEZE! I need to go! I've got a date in an hour!" She said.

"Bye." I said.

She gave me a hug then left.



I laid down on my bed, and closed my eyes. I felt a rush of air then I fell. I landed on a sharp rock.

"OH PISS! OWEE!!" I yelled.

I got up and saw I had cut my head.

"Owe!" I said.

I looked around. I was on a hill.

"OH HOLY CRAP!" I yelled.

I heard running near me.

"Who's there?" I asked.

All of a sudden I had a sword to my neck.

"Are you a spy half-ling?" They asked.

I sighed. I noticed the voice.

"Aragorn! It's me! Miss Mindy!" I said.

The sword left my neck and I heard it go into his holder.

"How did you get here?" He asked.

"I came back!" I said.

"Are you a wizard?" Aragorn asked.

"No, this just keeps happening. I don't know how." I said. He nodded.

"Where's Merry and Pip?" I asked.

"They've been taken by the Urics." He said.

"We figured you had been caught by the urik'hi too." Gimli said.

"No." I said.

"We need to hurry." Legolas said. We all nodded.

"Come Miss Mindy." Aragorn said as we all started to run. I lagged behind with Gimli.

"How long have you guys been running like this?" I asked.

"Three days and nights." He said.

"Wow!" I said. He nodded as well as he could while running.



As I ran I wished I could see Sam. I missed him vary much. Then all of a sudden we stopped so Legolas could see where they had gone. And all of a sudden the air rushed around me, and I was somewhere different. I looked around on this huge mountain with sharp pointy rocks.

"Oh, vary ominous, not cool." I said to myself as I looked around.

I didn't want to say anything to loud because I was afraid that orcs were near, my zooming in an out of places hasn't been perfected yet. I started walking, and I felt like I was walking in a circle.

"How do I get out of here?" I asked myself.

Then I heard noises, like someone talking. I hid, and listened.

"Let's see, we've got lambas bread, lambas bread, and look, more lambas bread." I heard.

I couldn't hear anything but muffled noise for a while, until I heard.

"Nothing dampens your spirit, does it Sam?" I wanted to cry. It was Sam and Frodo.

I walked nearer to them then whispered "Sam."

"Mr. Frodo, did you hear that?" Sam asked.

"Yeah Sam, I did. Who's there?" Frodo asked.

"Mr. Frodo, Mr. Sam." I said standing up.

"Miss Mindy! How did you get here?" Sam asked.

"The same way I got to the shire in the first place. I've got magic Lord of the Rings transportation powers. J.R.R. Tolkein must be smiling down on me!" I said.

He looked confused.

"Sorry, I forget from time to time." I said.

They looked at me confused.

"How is this possible? We left you with the others." Mr. Frodo said.

"I don't know, but I've got some sort of, I don't know, magic." I said.

"I'm so glad to see you Miss Mindy!" Sam said hugging me.

"I'm glad to see you too Sam," I said hugging him back.

"So where are we?" I asked looking around.

"On our way to Mordor, unfortunately we can't seem to get out of here." Frodo said.

I looked around. "It all looks the same." I said.

"That's why we can't get out." Sam said. I thought for a second then I looked down at my pocket.

"What is the likelihood that my GPS System would travel with me?" I asked pulling it out of my pocket.

"Your what?" Frodo and Sam said at the same time their brows furrowed.

"Um, my GPS, it's a map." I said.

"Ohhh." They said. I looked down at it, and 1 message popped up:

Sorry Hun, nice try, but GPS wasn't invented back then. You get an A for effort though! Welcome back to the story

-Us

"CRAP!" I yelled. Frodo and Sam jumped.

"Sorry, the stupid GPS won't work! We're gonna have to find another way." I said.

We all sat silently for a while thinking of a way to get out. Sam and I munched on bread as we thought about it. Finally we decided to start out on foot again. So we walked for a while till we got tired and cold and just needed a rest. I slept next to Sam hugging him.

"Night Sam. I'm glad to see you again." I said.

"Night, and I'm glad you're back. I missed you." He said kissing my cheek.

I smiled as my face turned red, then I closed my eyes to go to sleep.



Suddenly I felt a familiar rush of air and I was falling again.

"I WISH I COULD LAND ON THE GROUND FOR ONCE AND NOT HAVE TO FALL!" I said falling.

Then I hit the ground.

"Owe." I said.

I looked up and I was looking at a tree that was carrying Merry and Pippin. The tree was alive.

"This story is insane." I said as the tree scooped me up.

"Eep!"
