Chapter Eight: Mirkwood Gets a Big Surprise

The sisters carried the balls out into the garden inside their dresses. It was a beautiful day, and birds chirped merrily in the trees through which sunlight filtered in and was dyed emerald. They set the balls out onto the grass by the archery field. Suddenly a maniac laughing filled the air around them, and a figure, dressed all in white, appeared suddenly at the foot of the balls. He had L'Oreal hair (because he's worth it), and he picked up a ball and caressed it (with really long manicured fingernails that scare me). Guess who it is? Sauruman!

"Mwuhahahahahaha!!!!!!!" he cackled "Finally, the crystals of Thranduil are mine! MINE!" A stooping figure appeared at his feet. "Gollum." It croaked in its throat. You know who that is! I just loved him too much to leave him out.

"Ha Ha! My plan was ingenious! Gollum had been captured by the elves of Mirkwood before, so he was able to sneak around the palace and tell me where the crystals were! But he couldn't get them out himself, so I granted you your stupid wish to be beautiful so you would commit my crimes! Now, do you wish to ask any last questions before I bestow upon you a terrible fate?"

" Yes." Said Olga. "Why did you want the crystals?"

Sauruman shrugged. "They looked pretty. Now, SUFFER!" He raised his weird staff thingy and pointed it at Olga and Helga. But suddenly, Legolas showed up. He grabbed a bow from the archery field nearby and loosed an arrow at Sauruman. But it was too late. Sauruman fired a bolt of white light at the sisters, but he got away just in time, leaving the crystals behind. At first, it seemed like the light had no effect.

"Legolas, YOU'RE OUR HERO!" screamed the girls, latching onto Legolas. But then their hair changed back to ugly. Their clothes morphed back. And they became fat again.

"Nooooooooo!!!!! WE'RE LESS BEAUTIFUL!" they cried. Legolas looked on astonished. But then he felt kind of sorry for them. They weren't really bad girls after all. Nothing had happened to the crystals, and they were kind of sweet in a weird sort of way. So he smiled.

"You're not that ugly. All you really need is weight watchers and a makeover." He said. The girls sniffed.

"Really?" they asked with puppy dog eyes.

"Really."

"OOOOOOOOOH LEGGY!" they cried, latching onto him again. He sighed.

"I hope."

**Author's Note** What will happen to the girls? Will they ever get home again? Or will Legolas have to live with them clinging to him forever? I thought about writing more chapters, but writer's block has set in on this story. So without further adieu, here's the ninth and final chapter!
