The Fellowship of the Ring

Chapter 1

Three heads bobbed around in the pool in the Villa's backyard. Ben, Cody, and Keith passed the hours by bombarding each other in the pool. Cannon balls and fun noodles became weapons of pointless fighting. Just as Ben and Cody though they had held Keith under the water long enough for him to pass out, he struggled up to the surface.

"Since when have you been dumping doors in your pool Ben?" Keith questioned as he spat out water. Ben and Cody exchanged confused glances.

"Since never?" Ben replied.

"But there's one down there right now." Keith said as he dived back under the pool, followed by the other two. The three boys did indeed find a door at the bottom of the pool. They all struggled to get it to the surface. When they had surfaced with the door, they pushed it up onto the back porch.

"Put it on the grass." Ben commanded.

"Why?" Cody asked. Ben only shrugged.

"I don't know. Cause I said so." Cody grumbled and pushed the door of the porch. It landed on the somewhat grassy ground. THUD. They hopped off and stood by the door. "Well...what an interesting door." Ben commented.

"Maybe we should open it up." Keith suggested.

"Riiight. And there will be a hidden portal behind it. And we'll be transported to another world if we enter it." Cody said sarcastically. Keith shrugged and kneeled down beside the door. He twisted the handles and pushed the door open. Behind the door was a large, black hole.

"What the heck?" Ben pushed the door shut again, narrowly missing Keith's fingers. He and Cody stood the door upright.

"Hey! Where'd the hole go?" Keith crawled all over the spot. They sat the door down again. "Should we open it again?"

"Dude. Just shut up and open the door." Ben said. Keith grumbled as Cody had and opened it. He stood up and looked down into the vast hole.

"I wonder where it goes? Maybe it never stops. Maybe it goes to China. Then short, bald Chinese people will capture us. And make us give them a billion dollars. But if we don't they'll eat our toes and sacrifice us to their bald Chinese God. Then...." Keith said to himself but stopped when Cody smacked him in the back of the head. "Owww...." Ben and Cody then looked at each other and they grinned evilly. Both of them shoved Keith into the vast hole. As he fell his girlish screams could be heard.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii......" After two more hours he was still being heard. Ben and Cody had sat down beside the door. They occupied themselves by throwing rocks at each other. "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...." THUD! When the screams ended Ben and Cody sprang up. They peered down into the hole.

"Kkkkkkkeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiittttttttthhhhhhh!" Cody shouted down into the hole.

"Wwwwwhhhhhaaaaattttt?" Keith responded.

"Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrreeeeeee yyyyyyyoooooooouuuuuuu ooooooooookkkkkkkkkk?"

"Yyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeessssssssss. Hhhhhhooooooooowwwwwwwww aaaaarrrrrrrrreeeeee yyyyoooooouuuu?"

"Iiiii'mmmmm fffffiiiii..." Ben smacked Cody.

"Shut up, retard!" Cody tackled Ben. They rolled around for about another hour. Finally satisfied with beating the crap, or attempting out of Ben, Cody stood up.

"Let's follow Keith." He grabbed the backpack he had brought over with him. Then he and Ben jumped into the hole in the door. And for two more hours... "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" They screamed.
