Revenge For Gimli or Take That, Ringmuse!

Once upon a time, there was a place called Rivendell. Unfortunately for the inhabitants, this place was at the crossroads of a much loved story, and therefore prey to many horrible events. One of the most common of these is the dreaded Mary Sue.

Now, annoyingly enough, the most common place for these creatures to occur is within or just outside the city; and the most common time is before a very important Council. Therefore, many means both magical and otherwise have been employed to keep them out of this place, and prevent them from causing this time to recur.

You know they get in anyway.

So it was that Elrond, Lord Of Rivendell, found himself once again summoning his visitors to the Council.

He stopped to lean against a wall for a moment, before pulling himself up, fully intending to notify the Security department that there had clearly been some kind of breach. However, when he turned around, he saw the breech. He frowned for a minute, taking in the fact that at 5 feet and wearing t-shirt and jeans, at least it wasn't a Princess Sue. This meant it must be a Teenage Sue. However, before he could say anything, it held up its hands, from one of which dangled a gold ring.

"What do you think you're doing?!" he said, glaring. "There are no more Rings, I keep telling you people!"

"No, no, no. Not a new one, the old one. The Ring." she said, and jumping in before he could chew her out for that, she jumped back in. "I was trying to write a perfectly innocent piece of humor, and that thing showed up and took over. I think the Ring tried to escape by a making a little avatar, and I got it. Luucky me." Here she rolled her eyes. "I only came here to give you this, hoping if you give it to Frodo, it get absorbed back into the Ring." With these words, she chucked the Ring at him.

Elrond caught it, and held it up to examine. "It does seem to be a rather paler gold than the Ring should be-" he cut off, apparently hearing the voice of the Ringmuse, and stared at her again. "What were you trying to write?"

She only grinned, and shrugged. "Let's just say I got fed up with it when it started bashing Gimli, and leave it there."

Just then, Frodo came down the hall for no apparent reason, and spotted the Sue. "Elrond, what's going on? Why hasn't Security dealt with her yet." He looked up sharply, searching Elrond's face. "Wait, she hasn't gotten to you, has she? Are you feeling alright?"

Elrond shook his head, still frowning. "No. However, she did give me this." He handed Frodo the Ringmuse.

"What in? How..." he trailed off, and, as if compelled, pulled out the restored Ring. He frowned. "I hate these Mary Sues. They always give me the Ring back." Yet even as he spoke the words, the Ringmuse shot towards the Ring.

Reality seemed to ripple like a cheesy flashback effect, and as their proper places in history and time were restored, Elrond heard a female voice call after him: "And I'm not a damn teenager!"
