Mary sat there getting annoyed with Liz's crying. She eventually got up
and noticed Chrissy's ring sitting on the floor where the Fellowship had
disappeared. She got up and grabbed it. Glancing behind her at the still
devastated Liz, she slowly inspected the small treasure., turning it over
in her hand, she felt the smooth never-ending band radiating a sensation
she didn't recognize, yet over the unknown sense, another feeling. A memory
of the past day and the yearning for a never ending repetition of it.
Slipping the object into her front pocket, she turned around to face Liz
just steadying herself, though still seemingly disoriented, She walked over
to Liz and smacked her upside the head. "Quit crying already. I've got an
idea," she said with a grin.
"Ow. What?" Liz asked, rubbing her head.
"Well. the ring brought them here, so if we do it right..." she broke off as Liz began to catch on.
"It can take us there... but how?"
"That is the million dollar question. If only we had been able to sneak back with them. Then we wouldn't have this problem," Mary said, angry that Chrissy and Katie hadn't taken them along. Then an overwhelming urge to take the ring came over her. She glanced over at Liz before taking off towards the jewelry counter. "I want this engraved," she said breathlessly.
"What would you like it to say?" the saleslady asked warily was Liz ran over.
"Mary and Frodo."
"Liz and Legolas," they yelled at the same time. The lady in blue gave them a weird look before setting to work. About ten minutes later, she presented Mary with the finished product.
"Maiz and Frogolas?" Mary exclaimed. "Liz I'm gonna KILL you!"
"What are you complaining about? It isn't even engraved," Liz said, examining it.
"Of course it is... What the?" the sales lady asked, seeing that the band was unadorned yet again. "Well there goes my pay. Stupid weird rings," she muttered to herself, turning her back on two of our heros.
"Now what do we do genius?" Liz asked, glancing over at mary.
"Go to Chrissy and Katie's house and see if we can dig up any information on that ring or an incantation perhaps," She said as they walked out into the hazy Maryland sunlight.
"Ow. What?" Liz asked, rubbing her head.
"Well. the ring brought them here, so if we do it right..." she broke off as Liz began to catch on.
