~*A/N: Lol, Jessica!! That was hilarious! Bloody fantastic!! And I was acting like…a fangirl?? O.O Oh well! A little Elfie-glompage is never a *bad* thing…(unless of course, you're the Elf who is slowly being constricted, lol) *~

Back in Rita's POV.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Mucho felicidad.

Beaucoup felicite.

Tashou.

Much happiness.

This all summed up my thoughts at that moment, when I heard that we got to travel with the Fellowship until they reached a safe place for us. Of course, there was a downside.

We only got to travel with them until they found a safe place for us!

But, then again, who was I kidding. With Jessica and I around, *no* place can be considered safe.

I was about to grab onto my Elf-prince again, or maybe Jessica, and dance about madly, when Boromir just *had* to cut that short by yelling:

"Orcs! Run! Lady Rita, Lady Jessica, follow me!"

Running in heeled boots and in three-inch-sandals is not advisable, especially not when your guide is much taller and faster than you, and has longer legs, and you aren't so great in PE, anyway.

I was stumbling after Boromir, trying to find a moment to grab an extra breath, when I heard this muffled thumping sound, followed by an "Ow!"

One down. About two seconds later, there was *another* muffled thump, followed by a "Yeeeeee!!!!"

That would have been me, following Jessica's example and tripping, not to mention rolling down a hill.

"Ouch! Ow! Man, this hurts…owwwiiies! Pain…"

Finally, I came to stop…at the feet of an Elf!!! A Legolas elf!!! Maybe falling down hills wasn't so bad, after all…

He shook his head slightly, and extended a hand.

"Get to your feet, Lady. I do not wish any harm to come to you."

Oooh…niceness.

I didn't like just *sitting* there as Legolas fought the Orcs (they didn't stand a *chance* of coming too close at all, Legolas was shooting each new wave of them as they appeared) but really had no idea what to do. Taunting the Orcs, however tempting that was, wasn't a smart thing to do. It would piss them off, and distract Legolas. Fight? The only time I fight is in defense, and we weren't in any immediate danger or anything…but I hated to feel useless by just *sitting* there.

"Hey! That was my new shirt!"

Legolas, having finally killed all of the Orcs, shouldered his bow and we both ran off to see what was happening…

And burst out laughing to find Jessica kicking the shit out of some random Orc, before Aragorn *finally* killed it.

"Wow, Jessica…I didn't know you could fight like that!" I said, still giggling way to hard to make much sense talking.

"Well, it was my new shirt…"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Meanwhile, at home, my mum was pacing around the floor, wondering where I could have gotten to.

"She's probably at Jessica's," she said to herself, muttering. "She said something about that earlier."

She picked up the phone, and dialed Jessie's number, tapping her foot impatiently until Jessica's mom's voice came on the other line.

"Hello?"

"Oh, hi, Sharon? It's Cruz… I was just wondering if Rita was at your house."

"Well she's not here…I guess that means that Jessica isn't at *your* house, and they're not at Jenny's…"

"OK, then," my mum said, sounding a little worried. " I'll let you know if they show up…they're probably staying late at school for choir practice or something. Bye."

She hung up, before calling my sister into the room.

"Julia? Have you seen Rita or Jessica at all today?"

"No, why?"

"Because neither of them has come home."

"Well…maybe they got eaten by Orcs?" Or turned *into* Orcs? Or Saruman made them slaves? Or---"

My mom sighed to herself. That was what came of letting her see the Lord of the Rings nine plus times.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Ok! Now we're all reunited and stuff, even though we were never really separated before…where are we going tomorrow morning?" I asked, eager to know. "Gandalf's still here…are we going to Caradhras?"

"How did she know?" Sam whispered to Frodo, keeping one suspicious eye on me.

"I don't know…" Frodo whispered back. "Mayhap she is a Maia, like Gandalf? Maybe that is why she knows our future."

I caught the look of suspicion Sam was giving me, and turned to him, saying mock-severely:

"Samwise Gamgee, there is nothing about me to be feared! Therefore, if you do not open up and trust me at least a little, I'll…I'll…I'll turn you into something unnatural!" I finished triumphantly, nodding.

"Ooh! What will she do?" Pippin asked Jessica, looking half afraid, half excited to find out.

"Well, I don't know…" Jessica said, slowly. "She could always give him…a makeover."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

A/N: Lol! That was fun…Jessica, what's going to happen?
