Chapter 15 – Goodbyes
Holly was beginning to think Frodo wasn't going to leave her. Then, one fateful night, Gandalf returned from studying the Ring's past history. Gandalf gave a summary of the Ring to Frodo and he decided that he must leave. He remembered Holly and looked sadly at the drawing he had tacked onto his wall.
"So she was right after all…" Frodo muttered.
Gandalf heard noises outside, so he whacked the unsuspecting creature with his staff and pulled Sam Gamgee up by his shirt.
Sam was forced to go along with Frodo, because Gandalf wasn't sure whether Sam was among the allies of Sauron.
Immediately the next day, Frodo and Sam set off to tell Holly and Rosie that they were being forced to leave. They knew that they would be leaving in a few days, because of the oncoming danger, the Nazgûl, as Gandalf had called them.
Holly was busy playing cards with Merry. (A/N: if hobbits didn't have cards…they do now!) "Hey, Frodo, Sam, what's going on? You look worried," Holly said.
"I have a reason to…I…I…am going to…I…I…" Frodo trailed off, frozen in fear. He never knew how afraid he was of saying goodbye to the one he loved.
"What the hobbit means to say is…like Bilbo…we must say goodbye…" Sam trailed off, his eyes filled with tears as he saw Merry's shocked face.
"Why must you go?" Merry tried to look calmly, but he just couldn't. Holly, meanwhile, had tears streaming down her face while Frodo embraced her one last time.
"I'll explain it to you once the deed is done…but we cannot talk about it here, there might be spies!" Sam whispered.
"Shh!" Frodo exclaimed. "We cannot talk period. Come with us over to Pippin's hobbit hole. There we will say goodbye to everyone and be off in two days!"
"Where are you going?" Merry asked.
"Bree…why?" Sam asked.
"I can get you there very quickly. I know the way!" Merry said.
Holly looked to Merry. "No! You're not leaving me! Not even for a few days!"
Finally, the four hobbits walked to Pippin's hole, where they found the rest of the hobbits playing poker. (A/N: All right so I like cards and I figure so do hobbits if they're anything like me :D and they must be because I'm obsessed with them)
"What's wrong, Holly?" Jessica asked. She looked at Merry, then to Sam.
Merry did not look at Jessica because he would start crying. He wanted to show Jessica how strong he could be. "We must leave you for a very long time...Frodo has some sort of task to do and…"
"Merry, don't say anything else!" Frodo snapped. He was sick of people almost giving away everything and almost letting the evil into the Shire.
"You're…leaving me?" Jessica's eyes teared. "You too?" She looked to Sam and he nodded. "My own brother…I'm going to be all alone…except for us girls!"
All of the hobbits had a group hug and started sobbing uncontrollably. They finally stopped after Nenya came in to wish them all goodbye.
"I shall miss having you four around. You brighten up my day…" Nenya let a tear escape. I would come and see you to Bree, and possibly Rivendell, but I have other business to attend to in Mirkwood. So I must leave as well," Nenya said, and then he kissed Holly goodbye and waved to the rest of them.
Everyone started sobbing again after Nenya left and couldn't stop until Gabriel came to wish Pippin goodbye; she was moving again, this time to Staylina to stay with the elves living there.
They didn't sob after that, though, their eyes were dry from crying too much. They finally parted their ways.
TWO DAYS LATER…('cuz I have the really cool fast forwarding button)
Frodo woke up and immediately grabbed his bag, running to Sam's hobbit hole. They then left without getting Merry and Pippin. Frodo had resolved to not getting them; he didn't want to get them into trouble. Sam left without waking up Jessica and sadly walked out of the Shire, leaving everyone behind.
Merry and Pippin were shocked to see that Sam and Frodo didn't wake them up, so they went off to Farmer Maggot's to steal some food from his farm.
Jessica and Holly woke up to find their brother's bed's empty and some provisions missing.
"Well, they really did it this time…" Holly said to Jessica. "They actually left us behind for an adventure…"
"I know…I can't believe this is happening!" Jessica started crying again and the two friends hugged while crying.
