Chapter Three
The Ring
The curly-haired hobbit appeared right in front of me as soon as my mother's car disappeared.
"About the ring." he started.
**Two Weeks Later**
When I awoke to a small rustling on the floor next to my bed (Frodo had, with use of assorted smuggled sheets and blankets, created a makeshift bed next to mine, between it and the wall), I was frightened for a moment. Was it the dream or the noise that had awoken me?
**Dream Flashback to five minutes before**
Leah was running down the hall towards her room when an old man suddenly appeared. He had a weathered face and piercing eyes, and wore a tall pointed hat. He put out a hand. "Leah Underhill," he said in a shaky voice, "YOU, and eleven others, will destroy the Ring. Choose your companions carefully. Eleven others, no more, no less."
**Ten Minutes Later**
Now I lay in bed, trying to figure out the dream. Frodo had told me, of course, that Sauron's (author's note- do hope I got that name right) ring had been unmade a year ago (for him), but it still existed, just not with the same power. It could still offer invisibility, but nothing more. Sauron could, however, (if he regained enough power) make another ring.
"What's wrong?" Whispered Frodo. I started, and stared at him.
"What?" he asked
"Frodo! Don't do that!"
"Sorry, but what's wrong?"
"I had a weird dream- Gandalf came to me. He told me that there was a quest- to destroy the ring? And he said choose your companions carefully, eleven companions, no more, no less."
"Well, that's---"
Frodo was cut off suddenly as a blinding flash of light yielded who else but Gandalf himself.
HAHAHA!!! THE RULER OF CLIFFIES STRIKES AGAIN!
