"Frodo, are you sure you want to tell her about the ring?" Is what Gimli asked when Aragorn woke up the others while Buffy was still sleeping and told them Frodo's idea. And Sam had said: "You are crazy, Frodo, we know nothing about her"

"So we will find out more" was Frodo's reply "No, listen, just ask what she's been through and if Gandalf and Aragorn think she'll be helpful we will tell her"

"I think Frodo is right, she might be able to help," said Pippin

"Right" agreed Merry. So, when Buffy woke up Frodo asked

"Buffy, can you tell us what you have been through?"

"What I've been through?"

"Yes, since you've been a…uh…a slayer"

"Since I've been a slayer? Well I can't really remember what happened before I moved to Sunnydale…but…ok, let's see, when I first got to Sunnydale…" Buffy went on to tell them about everything she knew and what all had happened to her about Faith, Oz, her mother, and about Glory, Dawn, Giles, and the rest of her friends. They had started walking and it was noon by the time she finished "And I think that's how I got here, after I fell from that building, I saw a white light and it hurt, that's all I remember until I woke, passed out, and Pippin found me." Frodo then looked at Gandalf and Aragorn and said, "We haven't been honest with you exactly, either"

"You see," Legolas cut in "We aren't just going to Lothlorien…not really exactly"

"Frodo has…a ring…the ring of power," said Aragorn

"The wha-?!" asked Buffy

"The ring of power, it helps you control the world" Frodo added

"So…you rule the world, Frodo?"

"No, we are going to destroy it…and we need your help"
