This was originally written as a play because we had to write a play. I got bored and wrote this one instead. I hope you like it and sorry for the lack of description. :P Oh and I know I have spelling errors. I will change them as soon as I have some spare time.

A group of hobbits are gathered in a large field and Gandalf is standing in front of them.

"I'm sure many of you have heard about our current troubles." he said

"Yeah talk about troubles! I mean the river running through the Shire is so full of fish now that you can't even take a proper bath!" inturrupted Sam

"Not those troubles you dimwit! Now as I was saying…" continued Gandalf giving Sam the evil eye.

"Sir you were about to tell us about our troubles sir," pipped up Pippin (get it?) trying to be helpful

"Is anyone else going to interrupt me?" glared Gandalf at the assembled hobbits.

"Nope. Continue on Gandalf!" said Merry cheerfily. (ok ok i'll stop with the bad puns :P)

"Not another word or else I'll hit you all with this staff!growls Gandalf turning a bright shade of red. "Why do you think I carry it around?" he asked proudly.

"To hit people with sir?" asked Pippin. A mysterious munching sound was heard in the area.

"You got that right. Now as I was saying. I'm sure you've all heard of our current troubles." said a smug Gandalf pausing to glare at Sam daring him to inturupt. "The dark lord Suron is rising again. He is sending out evil men all across the country in search of one thing," said Gandalf trying to paus dramatically. Trying to help, Pippin once again cut in.

"In search of food sir?" The munching continued.

"Of course he isn't looking for food. He's an evil lord! I'm sure he's got plenty of food. All you can ever think about is food Pippin." chided Merry.

"I can to think of other things!" The munching sounds grew louder. "Like these peanuts I'm eating!"

"Oh yeah!"

"Yeah! I can…"

Gandalf, finally unable to conain himself much longer, cuts in on Merry and Pippin's argument. "Oh for goodness sakes!"

Merry sniffed sticking his nose into the air. "Well I say! How rude!"

"Are you going to hit him with your staff now?" asked Sam hoping the answer would be yes.

Gandalf sighs once again dramatically. Gandalf loved to do everything dramatic. If he didn't, how could he get so much fame? "Sauron is in search of a ring. Yes a ring," he pauses to glare and Sam, Merry, and Pippinbut this ring isn't an ordinary ring. It has dark powers and Suron would do anything to get it back. Beware. You may die. Anyways, the reason you are all gathered here today is so I can choose which one of you is going to destroy this ring. Now who wants to go? I'm looking for volunteers only."

"I want to go sir!" said Pippin quickly raising his hand.

"And your name is?" asked Gandalf.

"Merry Brandybuck" shouted a triumphant Pippin.

"Hey don't volunteer me! You can't do that! Tell him he can't do that Gandalf!" shouted an angry Merry.

"Very good. Merry your coming with me. Anyone else?" continued Gandalf ignoring Merry's protest.

"Yes. My name is Pippin Took.Now it was Pippin's turn to glare at Merry.

"Good good," said Gandalf ignoring the exchanges.

"I want to go too," said Sam.

"And your name is?"

"Sam Gamgee."

"Anyone else? No? Very well. You sir, what's your name?" asked Gandalf pointing at a new hobbit.

"Me? B-but I don't want to go! It sounds awfully dangerous and I might get hurt!" said the hobbit.

"Wuss!" whispered Merry which he followed with a rather vicouse bought of coughing.Pippin, having missed the entire point of the joke, began patting Merry on the back looking down at him concerned when the coughing just grew more violent.

"Plus you said you'd only take volunteers," said a stubborn hobbit.

"Err…" was all Gandalf could manage.

"So I don't have to go?" asked the hobbit eagerly.

"Of course you're going! Come with me Frodo."

Frodo looke annoyed, then confused. "Wait. How do you know my name? I didn't tell you."

"Err… Yes you did. Now let's get a move on shall we?" said Gandalf quickly before Frodo could ask anymore uncomfortable questions.

"Wait, wait where's the ring?" asked a very observant Frodo.

Gandalf sighed. Did he have to think of everything? That what hobbits were for! To do everything for powerful wizards like Gandalf! "Oops I nearly forgot. Hmm… Ah yes! My wedding ring will do! It matches the description rather well though I'm not sure Suron would want it… Here you go Frodo," said Gandalf finally after fishing around for an idea. He hands the ring to Frodo. "Now let's march! Line up! Left, left, left right left…"

The hobbits march off with Gandalf following behind.

Well what do you think? It's my first story on fanfiction! Oh and don't forget! REVIEWS MAKE ME A VERY HAPPY BUNNY! (or monkey whichever works :P)
