Alice In Middle Earth

A/N: Ah Hello! Before you guys jump into the story, I just wanted to let you know that this is my first fanfic on this website! I might make a lot of mistakes along the way so please let me know if I'm doing something wrong! It would also mean the world to me if you guys take a few seconds of your time to tell me how you thought of the story. I have only stumbled on this site a few days ago and I don't know how many people use this now

:( Anyways, hope you enjoy!

By the way, this is a hobbit x harry potter crossover but I would be mentioning the harry potter characters only slightly. So to give you an idea the ratio between the two would be like…. 8:2 So I haven't added it as a crossover but let me know if that's wrong! Again, I'm really really new to this!!!

Chapter One

Early in the morning of a Tuesday morning, Alice looked out the window from her bakery on Camomile Street, sighing as her fingers wrapped around a warm mug containing her hot chocolate. She took a couple more sips before sighing again, her right hand reaching up to her face as she cupped her chin with it. A ray of sunshine shined upon her eyes and she gently shut them and enjoyed the little bit of warmth that fell upon her face, although it soon went away as a cloud covered the Sun.

"Alice," Sam, one of the employees called out to her upon hearing Alice's third sigh of the hour. "Why don't you go on a little break?" He said.

"A break?"

"Yeah. I think you could use a little vacation. Take some time off work."

"Vacation…." Alice repeated, her thoughts drifting away. She pictured a nice gentle sea breeze playing with her hair and the cold, fresh feeling of the ocean on her feet. She smiled at Sam as she nodded, her mood lifting. She felt even better after another sip of her hot chocolate.

"Wow...!" Alice breathed out as she admired the endless blue sea in front of her. It had been quite a journey. She glanced back to see three of her friends yelling her name, drawing attention of the people around her. Quiet down, will you!? She hissed, rubbing her forehead as the redhead boy- or should she say man, now since it has been two years since they graduated their school- caught up to her and put his arm around her neck, making her stumble slightly forward.

"Ron, will you stop doing that! You're bothering Alice!" A brown-haired girl lightly slapped Ron's back and took Alice by the arm, careful not to hurt her friend. "Hey Alice, why don't we go change?" Hermione said, shooting her boyfriend a rather mischievous look.

So two girls went to the changeroom installed not too far away and started undressing. Hermione pulled out her white tankini, and, to Alice's horror, a black bikini that didn't quite seem like Hermione's size.

"Oh, no. You are not putting that on me!" Alice hissed, her cheeks slightly pinkier than normal. She backed away but her friend was faster and had locked the door with a flick of the wand. "I swear, Hermione Jean Granger soon-to-be-Weasley, don't you dare bring that thing closer to me!"

"Hey Ron, Harry!"

"What took you so long-" The two boys turned around-they had changed into their swimsuits and settled down, the magical tent set up already-and gasped as they saw a slender figure approach them embarrassedly. Her teeth were gritted and she was waving her hand threateningly in the air, as if to say 'I will throw a curse at you if you say anything'. Over the years of their friendship, Ron and Harry both knew when to shut their mouth, so they simply pretended if nothing unusual happened.

Alice sighed for the first time since arriving at the beach, her eyes fixed on the three figures playing beach ball, Ron shrieking cowering as Hermione jumped to smack the ball down towards his way. A small smile formed on her lips and she sipped away the lemonade quite happily. Brr- she shuddered as the evening breeze passed by, her wet hair and clothes making it colder. Harry, I'm burrowing your shirtr! She raised her voice in the direction of the dark-haired boy, who turned back and grinned before nodding and turning his attention to the ball. So Alice quite happily put on the shirt that came down to about a few inches higher than her knees, which was expected, of course. Harry had gotten so tall over the last few years, probably from all that running around the Aurors had to do. My… How all of them grew. The years at Hogwarts definitely changed them a lot.

Alice! Can you pass us the ball? Alice's thoughts were interrupted by Hermione's call. Alice quickly finished the remaining lemonade and jogged into the water, where the multicoloured beachball had landed. She grabbed and threw it at her friends' direction as hard as she could, and the ball landed safely into Harry's arms.

"Thanks- Alice!!!!"

Hermione shrieked in terror.

The ball dropped.

Alice turned around to see a giant wave swallowing her deep into the Ocean.
