Hi guys! Sorry I haven't written for ages, but I was banned from the internet. Well I'm back now with the third chapter!





Legolas looked at her with growing interest.

"Hi." Said Pippin. "I'm Peregrin Took, this is Meriadoc Brandybuck, and-"

"And you are Frodo Baggins." Finished Melissa, looking at Frodo in a weird fashion. They stared at her.

"How do you know our names?" stuttered Frodo, disbelief written all over his face.

"I'll explain later. Do you have the ring?" she asked.

"Yes, here it-" Frodo stopped in panic, fumbling with his shirt in the gloom. "No! I don't! Oh no! Where is it?"

"Calm down!" soothed Melissa. "Look, I can see you guys are in a fix. I mean, where are the others? Aragorn, Sam, Gimli, Boromir?" asked Melissa. The others looked blank. "Right. I want you to come home with me, my parents and brother have gone away for the week." They set off, with Frodo still looking blindly from side to side for it.

When they got back to Melissa's house, she turned on the T.V and left the hobbits to it. She called Legolas into the kitchen.

"Legolas," she began. "I reckon I know where Sam is. He's a gardener, so he'll be in the Queen's gardens. Now.." She was going to carry on, but Legolas interrupted.

"How do you know about us?" he asked. "We have never met before, yet you seem to know everything."

"I. er, I think it would be better if I wait for everyone to turn up before I tell you." Said Melissa. Legolas nodded. Melissa carried on explaining what to do and where to go.



He knew where he was (well sort of), so where was the entrance? Legolas sighed. He would have to jump over the hedge. Once he was over, Legolas gasped at the sight. There were flowers bathed in moonlight everywhere, giving everything a pale ghostly sight.

Legolas stood still, just drinking in the sight. He chanced to look around, and saw a dark figure lumped under a tree. Sprinting lightly, Legolas ran over to it, and kneeled down. He turned it over to reveal a familiar face-- it was Sam!

Sam opened his eyes and smiled dazedly.

"Hullo Legolas. Where did you spring from?" he whispered, then groaned and shut his eyes again.

"Sam!" whispered Legolas urgently, but Sam didn't open his eyes again. Legolas lifted the hobbit's curly head and felt something damp. It was blood.





Mwhahahahaha! I'm going to leave you now, with this cliffhanger! I don't know if I'll write anything else * ducks from heavy object aimed at head* All right! I will! Please review! I'll be waiting!
