Chapter 3

I started cracking up when they said that but quickly stopped when I realized they weren't laughing.

"You're not serious are you?" I asked in surprise. But they didn't need to answer. The look on their faces was all I needed to know. 'Judging by the way they are looking at me I probably shouldn't have laughed' I thought. There was a very uncomfortable silence, until I decided to break it that is.

"Any who, onto my second question. Now what was it?" I pondered. The second part was more to myself, but I sometimes find that I think out loud. "Now let's see, was it something about glue? No. Uh…I think it had something to do with a utensil." I said while Elladan and Elrohir sat by the fire and watched me. I started pacing back and forth, only stopping when I walked into a branch and fell on my butt. Suddenly I remembered what my question was. I think the branch jogged my memory.

"Oh yeah, I remember now. Can I borrow a knife?" I questioned.

"What for?" they asked in unison.

"Wow…. That was cool. I really need to learn how to do that. But with who? I know! I could do it with myself. What for? WOW IT WORKED!" I said while flailing my arms around. About 5 minutes later my arms were getting tired, so I decided to get back to their question. "I need a knife to even out my hair. Don't worry; I'm not going to try to kill you in your sleep or anything. I'm not a softball playing axe murderer from Bryant College or anything like that." OK, so maybe I should have stopped with the cutting my hair part, because now they were staring at me again. But, the absolute worst part is that I don't think they'll give me a knife now. Me and my big mouth.

Elladan and Elrohir decided to ignore my ranting. They began talking to themselves in some language that I have never heard before. I was going to just leave them be and let them talk and all that, but I realized that there was something in Lefty (my shoe). I took my shoe off, turned it upside-down and shook it until whatever was in it fell out. It turned out to be….. a quarter. But it was a shiny quarter. It rolled a little bit away from me.

"QUARTER!" I screamed, diving after it. I landed painfully on the ground and held up my hand in triumph. It took me a minute to realize that the quarter wasn't in my hand. "NOOOO! WE'VE LOST HIM! CLEAR! BUZZ!" I wailed at the top of my lungs. I suddenly spotted the quarter lying next to me on the ground. I immediately stopped screaming. "Oh…. There you are," I said while calmly picking up the quarter. Where were Elladan and Elrohir during all of this you ask? Well, they were slowly backing away from me in alarm.

"Don't worry guys, I'm not very crazy," I tried to reassure them. It didn't work too well. They went back to their spots near the fire, but they took their weapons out. Seriously, what was I going to do? Throw the quarter at them? Yeah right. Like I would waste my only quarter on them. I have horrible aim, so the quarter would have missed them and rolled off into the forest somewhere, never to be seen again.

As it got darker, it also got colder. Not very cold, but cold enough that I would want to go sit by the fire. So, I did just that. But, I made sure I was on the opposite side of the fire than Elladan and Elrohir so I didn't scare them anymore. They began speaking in their language again. I tried to listen but realized that I had no clue what they were saying so I began to doze off. I fell asleep soon after (while sitting up) and fell backwards so that I was laying down.

"She sure is a strange human," said Elladan to Elrohir.

"You got that right. Are you sure we should bring her back to Imladris? She could be dangerous," replied Elrohir darkly.

"Oh you're just angry because she sneezed on you," replied Elladan airily. "Besides, we can't just leave her out here. She'd be dead in a matter of minutes."

"Are you sure that's a bad thing?" muttered Elrohir. Elladan didn't say anything, he just hit him on the head in response.

Thank you for the reviews that I recieved for the last two chapters. If I hadn't received them I probably wouldn't have gotten to this chapter in the story. Oh, and I have nothing against softball players or Bryant College. Have a nice day.
