Chapter 6. An Eventful Day… Not
*Kitty's POV*
The Fellowship's been staying with us for about four days already and it's been really cool. This is what usually happens:
Gandalf and I would go and try to find a way for them to get back but always came up with nothing.
Boromir's usually talking with Moon or arguing with her. I know he's Moon's favorite character and she has a crush on him in my opinion. The thing is that they are like first graders; always arguing or being 'the bestest friends ever'.
Merry and Pippin are usually watching Nick (Big Time Rush is their favorite, one time I heard them humming some of their songs) or trying to explore my entire house. I have to go and find them because they always get lost in the west wing.
Frodo and Sam are usually with Sophie or Gandalf talking amongst themselves; they don't talk that much.
Legolas is pretty much everywhere and anywhere and he always scares the crap out of me. Once I was turning the corner and he was right there looking at a picture of my mom, dad and me.
*Flashback*
"…Leave it to Moon to read the hobbits horror stories before they go to bed." I was muttering to myself.
I turned the corner not paying attention and ran into someone. I screamed and saw that it was Mr. Legolas Thranduilion looking at an old picture of my family.
"Why do you have to go and just randomly appear?" I all but shouted.
"Did I frighten you?" he asked.
"No, you startled me,"
"Who is this?"
I looked at the picture and smiled sadly. The picture was taken when I was about five, right before my mom died. We were in a gazebo back at my Grandma's and Grandpa's house. Behind it was a blooming crab-apple tree with the pretty pink flowers falling off it. To the side was the pasture with the horses running around chasing each other or something like that.
My dad looked a lot happier and younger; his hair was a little longer, his big blue eyes brighter and he looked healthier. He was wearing an old baseball cap, his light blue shirt unbuttoned with the white t-shirt underneath showing, worn-out jeans and old cowboy boots.
People who knew my mom says I look just like her and its true. I have her curly brown hair, dark green eyes, smile and just pretty much everything else. My Mom's more beautiful though and she always will be. She's wearing a light yellow summer dress with light brown, slightly healed, sandals.
I was standing in between them giggling. Back then I had my hair in a ponytail that was slowly coming undone like how it always does. I was wearing a violet dress very similar to Mom's but it had ruffles and was poofier.
"Who is she?" Legolas repeated.
"That's my mom," I answered. "She died in a car crash years ago when I was only five." I felt tears welling up in my eyes and I forced them back. "The picture was taken only a few days before she died."
Legolas gave me a knowing look. "My mother was taken when I was just a babe."
Somehow that didn't make me feel any better.
*End of flashback*
Aragorn was usually overlooking the hobbits or learning about the 21st technology that I tried to explain to him. So far the Fellowship knows how a computer, laptop, car, TV, light switch, bathroom stuff and Just Dance 3 works.
"Lunch's ready!" Sophie called, from the kitchen.
I entered the kitchen and saw Merry and Pippin first in the seats waiting eagerly. Everyone else was just entering and slowly took their seats. Legolas was standing as usual and Boromir had finally trusted us enough to sit at the table. Sophie went and gave everyone their helpings of ravioli and garlic bread with a bowl of salad.
"Italian much?" Moon asked.
"Your name's Italian, Mona Ricci." I scoffed.
Sophie ignored us. "Kitty, can you get the drinks?"
"Fine," I muttered.
I went into the kitchen and opened the cabinets. I freaked out when I saw a mouse run across it and I let out a scream. The next thing I know is that I'm behind Moon pointing at the cabinets.
"Mouse! There's a mouse in the cabinets!" I was shrieking. "A mouse!"
Moon rolled her eyes. "It's only a mouse, Kitty,"
"No, it's a big mouse! Like this big!" I made the measurement with my fingers.
"Dude, that's only like maybe three inches,"
"It's still a mouse," Sophie said, grimacing. "We need to get rid of it before it invites its friends."
"Well, we can't call a mouse killer or get traps. So what are we going to do?" Moon asked.
"Chop up the house?" Sophie suggested.
"NO!" I snapped.
"Get flammable gas?"
"No,"
"Um… I'm out of ideas,"
"Look what I found!" Merry exclaimed. In his hands was the mouse. "I found it running across my foot."
I shook my head. "Take it outside, Merry," I looked at Sophie. "You make sure he doesn't sneak it in."
*Third Person's POV*
Kitty ran down the stairs and into the living room almost crashing into Aragorn in the progress. She flung herself onto the couch Gandalf and Sophie was on and smiled excitedly.
"I found a possible way to get them back!" she announced through pants.
"How?" Sophie asked.
"We need to get a Planítar," Everyone stared at her.
"That is a very dangerous tool, child." Gandalf said.
"It's evil," Moon added through a mouthful of M&Ms.
"I'm not stupid and I think I know where we can get one -" Kitty was interrupted.
"Where?" Sophie asked. "They don't exactly sell them here on Earth."
"Yes they do, at those creepy retail stores south of Indy that your Mom works at." Kitty smirked. "You just got owned."
"Who's gonna go and get it?" Moon asked.
"We can't get it, nimwit," Kitty rolled her eyes. "Wait for the publicity to die down; it's only been one day since the episode at the mall."
"Then when can we go?"
"Maybe on Thursday,"
"Why?" Sophie asked.
Kitty crossed her arms. "I have to take my little cousins to the Children's Museum, remember?"
"Oh yeah," Moon and Sophie said in unison.
"Dibs!" Moon yelled. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10! You owe me a soda!"
"What day is it?" Gimli asked.
Kitty checked the time on her phone. "It's Wednesday…" Kitty's eyes widened. "Wholly crap! I have to get to my cousins now."
"Can we-" Sophie started.
"No! No, you are not staying here with the Fellowship." Kitty snapped. "Everyone into the cars! We have a long hour drive to my aunt's and then to the museum."
*Sophie's POV*
Aragorn, Frodo, Sam and me piled into my car in our usual seats; me in the front, Aragorn in the passenger seat, and the hobbits in the back. I started the car and began to follow Kitty. It was a short drive to Kitty's Aunt Madeline's house to get her adorable twin cousins, Izzy and Lil.
Izzy and Lil are the most adorable twins ever. They're both still in first grade so they still talk really cute. The only difference between them is that Lil has brown curly hair like Kitty and Izzy's hair is blonde.
"When will we be at this museum?" Frodo asked politely.
"Eh, we still have about twenty or so minutes." I replied.
They were quiet again for the next few minutes. I got bored so I turned on the radio and a Ke$ha song started to blast out of the radio. I jumped and turned the volume down and began to press some buttons. Price Tag came on and I started to sing along.
Did I mention that I'm a terrible singer?
After a minute into the song Mr. Strider had enough. "Can you please stop?" he asked.
"Why?" I asked, feigning to be hurt. "You don't like my singing?" Let's just say after taking a year of drama class I was pretty good at acting. So I started to get fake tears welled up in my eyes and started to take shaky breathes. "I-I know that I'm not the best singer ever but you don't have to be mean about it."
Aragorn became very guilty. "I'm sorry, Sophie. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings."
I smiled at him and the tears went away. "It's ok!"
*Moon's POV*
"For the last time we are not stopping to go and get more Pop-Tarts!" I snapped.
"Why?" Pippin whined.
"The last time we gave you them you got a really bad sugar-rush and I'm not going through that again." I said through clenched teeth.
I let out a sigh and slouched in the seat. I banged on the radio and my Demi Lovato CD came on. I glared at the radio-thing and pushed more buttons to get the radio back on.
I am never going to turn on the radio ever again.
"…I'll be kissing you under the mistletoe." JB sang.
"NO! BAD RADIO! STOP HIS TERRIBLE SINGING! I TOLD YOU TO STOP!" I shouted at the radio.
Before I could turn it off Merry spoke up. "I like this song."
"Me too," Pippin added.
"You like this girl's attempt at singing?" I asked bewildered. "Wait until Kitty and Soso finds out."
*Kitty's POV*
"Why's your beard so big?" Izzy giggled.
"Who?" Lil asked.
"The old man and the stinky person." Izzy whispered.
I smiled at their innocence. "Isabella, Delilah, it's not nice to make fun of people's beards."
"We weren't makin' fun of them," Izzy protested.
"Yeah, Izzy was just sayin' so," Lil added.
"Cousin Kitty, why are these boys in here?" Izzy asked. "Are they your boyfriends?" 0Then Izzy and Lil burst into giggles.
I rolled my eyes. "No, these are just nice people that Sophie, Moon and I are helping."
"When are we goin' to be at the moo-ze-uh?" Lil asked, trying to enunciate museum.
"Just in a minute," I replied.
"These are your cousins?" Gandalf inquired.
"Yeah, the youngest ones of the bunch," I said.
"I see," he muttered.
"We're here!" I announced.
Only if I knew what was going to happen.
Please review! I know there are people reading in this story and not reviewing thanks to that chart thingy! So be a sweetheart please and review. Say something completely off topic for all I care. That's what my dearest cousin, Abigail, does.
PS: Who's your favorite OC so far? Moon, Sophie, Kitty or Mr. Walter?
