Ok Chapter 1!
Oh! I just realized I didn't put translations for the Elvish in the prologue, well here they are:
Le hannon, Esmerelda.- Thank You, Esmerelda
Ae anírach.- If you wish.
Tancave,- Yes
Le melon, Esmerelda- I love you, Esmerelda
There you go, terribly sorry about not putting those in the prologue.
Warnings: Pippin's distrust of Drogo, evil plot is revealed, frying pan fights, insults in Elvish, Pippin acting like an elf, and Gollum.
Gollum doesn't die either; he just doesn't try to take the ring from Frodo at Mount Doom or jump in the volcano.
ON WITH THE STORY!
"Pip, Emmy! Cousin Drogo is here!" Merry called across the field. They came barreling across the field.
"Drogo;" Pippin curtly greeted, noticing a dark aura around him.
"My, my, haven't you grown Peregrin." Drogo chuckled darkly, but only Pippin recognized it as dark.
"Time for supper, you three." Pearl Knotwise , Merry's betrothed, called from the doorway. They went inside and washed up for supper, then ate some delicious fish and chips.
"So Drogo, where have you been lately?" Pippin asked.
"Travelling around, mainly staying at Dol Guldur." He replied casting an evil look at Pippin.
"D-Dol Gul-Guldur? R-really?" Pippin stammered as he remembered a lot of unpleasant things about the tower in Southern Mirkwood, mainly the watch that it had on Legolas and that Sauron used to live there.
"Yeah, does that bother you?" He asked smugly.
"Pip, what's wrong?" Sam and Merry asked in unison. Pippin grabbed them by their arms and said;
"Excuse us for one moment."
"Pip, what is a matter with you?" Sam asked irritated as Pippin shut the door to the hobbit hole.
"Do you realize what and where Dol Guldur is?" Pippin asked quietly and quickly.
"No, should we?" Merry asked.
"Yes!" Pippin exclaimed.
"What and Where is it?" Sam asked.
"Dol Guldur is a tower in Southern Mirkwood that Sauron used to live in before he was driven out." Pippin watched as they paled when he said Southern Mirkwood, obviously thinking of Legolas.
"Legolas told you about it, didn't he?" they asked.
"Yes, but Strider told me another interesting fact about it." Pippin nodded.
"What's that?" Sam asked.
"Ever since Legolas was born, Sauron has been watching Legolas from that tower, and had figured out how to manipulate Legolas' mind, has even gone as far to send one of his fingers to brush against his mind. Dol Guldur is an evil place and those who go in there never come out alive, or they do come out broken beyond repair." Pippin explained.
"Let's go back in to make sure he hasn't tried anything towards Pearl, Rosie, and Esmerelda." Sam said quickly. They went back in and shortly went to bed after.
"I can't sleep, probably because of Drogo." Pippin muttered as he got up, lit a lamp, and got out his book about Elves.
"Good, they're fast asleep." Drogo muttered as he walked by Pippin's door. Pippin peeked out of his door and started to follow him. Pippin used his training about how Elves walk, stay in the shadows, and not be loud to follow Drogo.
"Hey boss! You're back!" an orc named Scar hissed.
"Yes Scar, and I bring news. The Shire is defenseless and we can easily take it." Drogo laughed.
"How easy?" An orc named Izma questioned.
"It is just easy." Drogo replied irritated. "I know you powers of retention," Drogo stalked toward the three orcs. "Are as wet as a pint of ale."
"But thick as you are," Drogo knocked a piece of bone that an orc named Gaston was chewing on, "Pay attention!" Gaston saluted at the ready as Drogo stalked around him.
"My words are a matter of pride." Drogo smirked. Pippin gasped as he watched Drogo explain his plan to his minions. After a few minutes he finished the plan and started back for Hobbiton. Pippin raced ahead of him in fear.
"SAM! Sam! Sam!" Pippin hissed as he shook his friend awake.
"Pip, what is it?" Sam groaned groggily.
"Drogo is planning to take over the Shire! He's got hundreds of orcs, wargs, uruk-hai, and other agents of Sauron with him!" Pippin hissed.
"What? Are you sure Pip?" Sam said instantly fully awake.
"He was talking to three orcs about it, I heard the entire thing!" Pippin hissed. They got up and got everyone else up except for Drogo.
"I thought we were done with this crazy nonsense about Sauron." Merry sighed.
"But Sauron is dead, how can you deal with him anymore?" A voice said.
"Mr. Frodo!" Sam exclaimed.
"Cousin Drogo is planning to take over the Shire and is using agents of Sauon to do it." Pippin explained.
"No…. He can't…" Tigerlily and Frodo gasped at the same time.
"He also has Dol Guldur under him." Sam growled.
"Is Legolas o.k.? Has Drogo hurt him?" Frodo asked quickly.
"I don't know about Legolas. He might have been…." Pippin trailed off not wanting to think about it.
"Now, my cousin has arrived and I have not been notified about his coming?" Drogo said coming into the room.
"Drogo," Frodo glared.
"Why do you seem angry at me, when I have not done anything to harm you?" Drogo asked with mock hurt in his voice.
"We were having a wonderful conversation until you interrupted us." Frodo half-lied.
"I'm going to fix breakfast." Sam stood up.
"We'll go too!" Tigerlily, Esmerelda, Pearl, and Rosie said. After a while, they sat down for breakfast.
"You know, if the Shire were to be attacked, it would not be much of a fight." Drogo smirked. Pippin's grip on his fork tightened and he forced himself to eat his bacon without faltering.
"You never heard about the Ranger's guarding the Shire did you? I wager that they still keep an eye on it." Frodo growled.
"No they don't. I never even saw any trace of a Ranger around the Shire's border. And that Strider fellow, He was just around here for the trips to Bree." Drogo laughed. Pippin lost it.
"How dare you talk about Strider like that! He was brave, kind, and genuinely concerned for our safety!" Pippin screamed as he shot up, grabbed a frying pan, and started to hit Drogo.
"Strider is a good person and even risked his life to protect us from the Nazgúl!" Frodo shouted angrily.
"He even took on a cave troll to protect us!" Merry shouted. Drogo picked up a frying pan and started to fight Pippin.
"Nai Valaraukar tye-mátar!" Sam, Merry, Frodo, and Pippin screamed.
"Gollum!" Drogo cried.
"What is it precious? It calls for us, precious." Gollum hissed as he came into the room.
"Gollum, please help us fight him." Frodo asked the creature.
"Master! We wills help Master. Master is our friend." Gollum threw himself at Drogo and Drogo fled away from the furious hobbits.
"I know you know of my plan, Peregrin, but you cannot stop me! You will die at the hands of my minions!" Drogo yelled as he ran.
"Hain ú-'rogon." Pippin yelled.
"Aa' lîn sereg loth dûr caran no' nîn hyanda!" Drogo yelled. Sam, Frodo, Merry, and Pippin paled at his parting words.
"What did he say?" Pearl, Tigerlily, Rosie, and Esmerelda asked. There was a long pause before Frodo answered;
"May your blood blossom dark red on my blade…."
Translations before I forget again.
Nai Valaraukar tye-mátar! - May Balrogs eat you!
Hain ú-'rogon. - I do not fear them.
Aa' lîn sereg loth dûr caran no' nîn hyanda! - May your blood blossom dark red on my blade.
I am sorry if it's a bit rushed, but I am busy with some other things and want to make sure I updated this story. The final bit of this chapter is like a miniature preview of some later events. I don't kill Pippin if that's what you're thinking, but, well, I won't spoil it for you.
Review please! Thank you WatsonandMaty4ever for your review!
