We (my friend and me) don't own Lord of the Rings. Personally, I would love to, but LOTR, and all things related, belong to the bloody brilliant J.R.R. Tolkien.

The Fellowship of the Ring, Condensed

A long time ago; the ruling Rings are made and given to each race.

Sauron: Hey! I didn't get one! I'm gonna go make my own! --Makes the one Ring-- Ah, that's better! I think I'll go take over the world! DIE, PEOPLE, DIE!

People of Middle Earth: AHHHH! Hail Sauron!

A handful of men and elves; Hey! Not cool! We liked being free! We're gonna come destroy you!

Sauron: Oh, no you don't! RAAAAAAAR! Fear me! --breaks Elendil's sword--

Elendil: AGGGH! --Dies--

Isildur: You killed my father. Prepare to DIE!

Isildur chops off Sauron's fingers, which fall to the ground with the Ring.

Sauron: OW!

Sauron's body crashes to the ground, and becomes a weird bodiless spirit thing. Isildur takes the Ring, but does not throw it into the nearby volcano.

Audience: Wow, He's a big, power-hungry jerk! But, like all the power-hungry jerks, he's gonna die.

Several years later; Isildur is riding by a big river.

Orcs: HA! AMBUSH!

Isildur: Oh no! I think this is a good time to take the Ring for a swim! --jumps in the river, but the Ring falls off his finger.-- Hey, Ring! Come back here!

Orcs: Peek-a-boo!

The Orcs shoot Isildur and kill him.

Isildur: Hey, no fair attacking a man when he's down! --dies--

Audience: What'd we tell you!

The same river, centuries later; Sméagol and Deagol find the Ring and start fighting for it.

Sméagol and Deagol: Mine! Mine! Mine!

Deagol: Fine. It's yours. --dies--

Audience: Wow, lots of people die in this movie.

Sméagol: Man, I hate the world. I'm gonna go underground for a few centuries. Bye!

Underground close to a lake, a century ago; Bilbo stubs his toe.

Bilbo: Ouch! Oh, look, a Ring! I'll keep it.

Sméagol: Nooooo! The Precious is lost! I must find it! --paddles to the shore-- Hey, who are you? Do you taste good?

Bilbo: I am Bilbo Baggins of the Shire. As to how I taste, I've never gotten hungry enough to resort to self-cannibalism.

People who have read the books: Where were the riddles? The riddles were the best part!

People who have not read the books: Huh? What riddles?

The Shire; Bilbo has a birthday party, and invites every inhabitant of the Shire.

Hobbits in general: YAY! Party! Party!

Bilbo: Some of you I really like. Some of you --gives a meaningful glance at the Sackville-Bagginses-- I hate. Goodbye! --puts the Ring on and disappears--

After the Party;

Bilbo: Well, I'm gonna leave now! Bye Gandalf!

Gandalf: Are you leaving everything to Frodo?

Bilbo: Yes……. The Ring too, I guess.

Gandalf: Good. See you later!

(Later)

Frodo: Where's Bilbo?

Gandalf: He left. Don't use the Ring. I need to leave for about a decade.

Frodo: Ok, bye. Nice fireworks, by the way.

10 years later;

Gandalf: Well, this is the enemy's One Ring.

Frodo: What should I do?

Gandalf: Get out of the Shire. Fast. --pulls Sam through the window -- you, go with him.

Sam: Umm, ok.

Gandalf: I'll meet you in Bree, at the Inn of the Prancing Pony, if I'm not kidnapped at Isengard by a turned-evil Saruman.

Somewhere in the countryside;

Frodo: Hi Merry! Hi Pippin!

Merry: Hi! Do you want a carrot? Wait, run away from that moving scythe!

Frodo: Quick, jump off this cliff!

Everybody jumps off the cliff.

Everybody: Ouch!

Pippin: Look! Mushrooms!

Frodo: Get off the road, quick!

The hobbits hide under a log. A black rider comes. Frodo almost uses the Ring, but stops when Sam punches him. Merry throws a bag of mushrooms at Pippin's head, and the black rider leaves.

Frodo: We need to get to Bree. Quick, get on this boat!

Bree, at the Inn of the Prancing Pony;

Frodo: Hi. We want to see Gandalf.

Butterbur: Too bad, He's not here. Have some rooms, and maybe he'll come later.

(Later)

Frodo: Oh, dear, Pippin's being an idiot. Again. I'll go put on the Ring and vanish while everybody's watching me!

Frodo puts on the Ring, and shows the black riders where he is.

Strider: You know, you are an idiot, Frodo Baggins. Let me travel with you. I'll keep you safe.

Frodo: I'm not so sure, but ok.

Frodo goes up to Strider's room. Later, Sam, Merry, and Pippin come up.

Frodo: This is Strider. He'll be traveling with us now.

Strider: Don't go to your rooms. If you do, the black riders will kill you.

Hobbits: That sounds dangerous and potentially painful!

The hill of Weathertop;

Strider: This place is called Weathertop. Take these swords. Poke anyone you don't know with them.

Pippin: Oh, thanks, I guess… pulls sword out of scabbard Ooh! It GLITTERS!

Strider: Ok, I'm going to go explore and leave you little people to fend for yourselves!

Strider leaves. Frodo goes to sleep. Merry, Pippin, and Sam make BLTs. Frodo wakes up.

Frodo: Um, don't you think the men in black will see the toaster?

Sam: Oh yeah, I didn't think about that.

The hobbits see the men in black surrounding Weathertop.

Frodo: What did I tell you! C'mon, let's get to the top of the mountain!

Top of the mountain;

Men in Black: Give us the Ring and our Master will take over the world and kill you. Doesn't that sound like fun?

Sam: Don't touch my master!

Sam attempts to engage the chief man in black in a sword-fight. The man in black hits Sam with his sword and throws him across Weathertop. Merry and Pippin cower on fear. Frodo puts on the Ring, and consequently gets stabbed.

Frodo: OW!

Strider saves the day by throwing a burning stick into the man in blacks face.

Man in Black: OW!

Strider and Sam go off to find a weed. Arwen almost sticks her sword through Striders neck.

Arwen: Let me take the cute, little person to Rivendell.

Strider: I'll do it.

Arwen: No, you need to share. It's my turn to take care of the little person.

Strider: Fine, you win.

Several days later, in Rivendell;

Frodo wakes up to find Gandalf sitting next to him.

Frodo: Gandalf! How am I alive?

Gandalf: Oh, I made a tsunami when the black riders tried to get across the river.

Frodo: So, are they dead?

Gandalf: No, but they have to go get more horses, and Sauron is gonna be angry at them for not getting the Ring. By the way, Saruman is evil. That's why I couldn't meet you in Bree.

The council of Elrond;

Elrond: So, somebody needs to take the shiny thing to Mordor and throw it into the volcano, yada yada yada.

Each race thinks they should do it.

Frodo: (trying to butt into the conversation, screams) I'll do it!

Sam: You can't separate us! I'm going with him!

Pippin: YAY! Vacation! Wait a second, where are we going?

Merry: I wanna come see a volcano!

Elrond: I'll pick the Fellowship members now: Strider, Legolas, Gimli, Boromir, and you too, Gandalf!

Pippin: Where are we going? Bahamas?

Caradhras Mountain;

The Fellowship travels south and eventually gets to Caradhras Mountain, which is covered in snow.

Gandalf: What does this sign mean? "Beware of falling mountain" What does that mean! Yes, I hear you Saruman, you're trying to bring a thunderstorm to shatter the mountain and it falls on us. Hey, maybe THAT is what the sign means.

The mountain falls on the fellowship.

Gimli: Let's go through Moria. We'll be welcomed by my relative, Balin. It'll be warmer, too.

Frodo: Yes, let's!

Gandalf: Ring-bearer says so. Let's go.

Moria,

Balin's tomb;

The fellowship reaches Moria, and is attacked by a mutant squid/octopus thing. They enter the mines, and travel and travel…. Eventually, Gimli sees Balin's tomb.

Gimli: Noooooo! He's dead!

Pippin: What happens if I twist this arrow in this skeleton?

Pippin twists the arrow, and the skeleton falls down the hole.

Skeleton: BANG!

Gandalf: Fool of a Took! Now we must fight some goblins!

Boromir: All right! They have a cave-troll! I've always wanted to fight one of these.

After the battle

Gandalf: Quick, let's get out of here!

As they are running, they see a fire.

Gandalf: Oh, no! A Balrog of Morgoth! RUN!

The Bridge of Khazad-Dum;

Pippin: I am not afraid of heights! I am not afraid of heights! I am not afraid of heights!

Gandalf: YOU SHALL NOT PASS! THE DARK FIRE WILL NOT AVAIL YOU, FLAME OF UDUN! Blah blah blah. --breaks bridge.--

Balrog: ROAR! --falls, but as it falls, it whips Gandalf's leg.--

Gandalf: Fly, you fools! --Falls--

Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin: Noooooo!

Everybody (except Gandalf, who fell into the big abyss) goes to Lothlorien

Lothlorien;

Galadriel: I'm sorry that Gandalf's dead. Spend the night here. Hey, Frodo, do you want to look at some water?

Frodo: Ok! Looks AHHHH! The Eye of Sauron! Run for your lives! --takes a deep breath-- Ok, I'm done panicking now!

Next day;

Galadriel: Here are some swords, a box, my hair, a bow, a belt, and this futuristic flashlight. Divvy them up among yourselves!

Pippin: I got this sword, but I already have one. --Pulls new sword out of scabbard-- OOH! This one glitters too!

Merry: What's with you and glittery things?

Galadriel: Have these pins, these boats, and some bread, too. Bye!

Everybody: Bye! --Jumps in the boats and leaves--

The River;

Boromir: Frodo, give me the Ring! NOW!

Audience: He's a bigger power-hungry jerk that that Isildur guy!

Frodo: NO! --Punches Boromir where it hurts and then runs away-- what's this big chair doing here? Ahh! Orcs! I have to get out of here!

Strider: Frodo, run! I'll kill the orcs! Go to Mordor with Sam! Bye!

Boromir: I'll protect you, Merry and Pippin! --Throw rocks at the orcs-- ARGH! I'm dying! Remember this in Minas Tirith! --falls over with 5 arrows in him--

Audience: YAY! The power hungry jerk got what he deserved!

Orc 17: Take the Halflings!

Orc 2: Ok!

The orcs take Merry and Pippin to Isengard.

Strider, Legolas, and Gimli: At least Frodo and Sam are safe… for now, at least…

Strider: I'll go find Boromir.

Boromir: I tried to take the Ring from Frodo. I'm dead now. --dies--

Strider: Ok. --Legolas and Gimli come-- Let's go find Merry and Pippin! Then we can go and save Middle-Earth!

Please review! John and I have worked long and hard through many of our brothers' gymnastics meets to write this; it's harder than it sounds. As soon as we finish Two Towers and Return of the King, I'll post them—never fear.
