Fitting In
A Hobbit's Tale by Frodo Baggins
The Prologue
Well, I suppose I should start at the beginning. Not the very beginning, just the part where the weird stuff starts to happen. That would be about one year after I destroyed the One Ring. I was thinking about going overseas with some elves, but first things first. Strider and his wife were having a wedding anniversary in Gondor. They had invited me and three mutual friends. I figured I'd like to see my old buddy again before I left, so I resolved to go. So did the others. Merry Brandybuck (he was my cousin on my mum's side), and Pippin Took (he was Merry's cousin on his father's side, and my 2nd cousin once removed, it's kinda weird, and I don't think about that too much). Oh yeah, my best friend Sam Gamgee came too. He's not related to me, he's my gardener. So we all got to Gondor for the party. Let's see…who was there? Well, Strider and Arwen for starters. Strider's real name was Aragorn Elessar, and he was kinda the king of almost all Middle-Earth, but that didn't matter much in our friendship. Arwen used to be an elf. Actually, she's the daughter of Elrond Half-elven, who's a half elf, so I guess that makes her a quarter-elf. Well, her mother was full blood, so….GAH! Never mind. She married Strider, her childhood sweetheart, who's a man, right? So now she's a mortal lady. Back to my story! Her dad Elrond was there too, and her grandmother Galadriel. She's an elf, so she's old as dirt and still looks pretty. Sam thinks she's real beautiful. For an elf, that is. You know, golden hair, blue eyes, freaky mind powers, and the whole shebang. This other elf Legolas was there, he was a recent friend of mine as well. Uh….oh yes, King Éomer of Rohan came, and his sister Lady Éowyn, and her husband Faramir, who was Strider's steward. The most important person there was Gandalf the White. Not important as in really special, which he was, but essential to the course that this story takes. He had been experimenting with the Time/Space Continuem, which wasn't exactly a good idea. So he decided to show a few of us a little demonstration. The few being me, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Strider, Arwen, Éomer, Éowyn, Faramir, and Galadriel. Elrond wasn't there, and that's important.
So Gandalf (being a wizard) did a little mumbo-jumbo dance and waved his staff around for a bit. Then all of a sudden,
KABOOOM!
"WHITE LIGHT! WHITE LIGHT! GAHH!"
I shouted as everything turned bright white and started spinning. Then…I blacked out.
