Sorry about taking so long to add more on to this story! I recently had a lot of projects and tests to do so I really didn't have much time to add on to my stories! I already added on to my other two so now I'm working on this one! Hope it works out!

chapter 3- scared to death!

Our traveling has been mainly sneaky from tree to tree! No of us knew what was chasing us but we were hiding from it. By now it was getting dark and we were still running behind trees. We happened to see the shadow of another one of those creepy riders, this had been our third sighting of those creepy guys and we weren't sure if they were three different guys or if they were all the same dude! They or it was closing on us! We were hurrying as fast as we could between each tree only stopping every once in awhile to catch our breaths. I wasn't as tired as the poor little guys though! I think was their size that made it hard for them… (a/n: or maybe they were out of shape from all that eating!)

Then out of nowhere comes one of the creepy guys on a horse! He made a weird screechy noise! So of course we all ran! We hid behind another set of especially large trees! "They're after something or someone," whispered Merry. "Me and San need to get to Brea," sad Frodo in almost guilty tone. "Right… Buckle berry ferry!" responded Merry and then just like that he took off and we all followed, running after our guide!   The scary riders jumped at us from all directions!  One jumped out in front of me! I closed my eyes and screamed at the top of my lungs driving the rider's horse berserk! The horse went mad as I continued to scream at the top of my lungs. It began to buck, making the dark person cling to the hors trying to control it. As I began to realize that I was still okay, I opened my eyes to quite a sight. I took this opportunity to make a dash for it. (a/n: ooeeee! That was a close one!) I guess I was running pretty fast because in no time at all I was running right next to Merry! Merry looked so scared, I turned to look for everyone else and saw Pippin a little farther off. I could see a lake now and a raft that I hoped was the ferry, but unfortunately it was. Merry jumped on it and began to take off the rope that was holding it to shore. I turned to watch for every one else and saw Sam arrive right after Pippin, but when I saw Frodo I screamed as I watched dark riders chase after him. "Christia! Get on the ferry!" I obediently did as they suggested. Once I was on the ferry I began to urge Frodo to hurry.

 I became so desperate that I threw a rock at the dark rider, but since I have horrible aim, it ended up hitting the horse's leg instead! The horse tripped causing the rider to be flung off its back straight into a particularly big tree!  "Woohoo!" I cried as I watched the very angry evil-person hang from the tree, his cloak was caught on a branch. Then, He flicked me off! In shock I cried "how rude," then threw another rock at him that knocked him unconscious. But then I realized that he hadn't been flicking me off at all! He'd been reaching out towards a branch in front of him, but of course I realize this right after I'd thrown the rock at him! "Oops, my bad!" I said, "oh well he was a bad guy anyways," and just shrugged it off. I then turned back to the hobbits. While I was dealing with the evil man, Frodo had managed to get safely onto the so-called ferry. We were now drifting across the water out of the evil people's reach.

Not much later, we came across another dock where we tied the ferry down and began to walk towards the place called Brea. It was a horrible night to be out! It was raining and I didn't even have a proper jacket! They used their cloaks, and San offered me his spare but I was a bit tall for it!  So I just made due with my sweater and a cloak that we stole. (a/n: I promise I'll return it!… eventually…)

 So I was pretty grouchy during this moment in time because I was soaking wet, very tired, and was around four guys that were starting to smell rather funky. We finally got to a big wood wall that I could only guess was the fence to the town. One of them, I was to tired to know which one, knocked on the huge door. A strange old dude opened an upper flap and looked at me "what can I do for you young miss?" "Excuse me? Oh uh, you should ask one of them they know the answer to that," I answered a little surprised. "Ask who?" said the old bewildered fart. I looked at him as if he were blind but then I realized the door opening was too high up to see me very short companions "Look through the lower door and you'll see them." H closed the little door and opened a much lower one "hobbits, four hobbits… Ah, what I asked her…" "we wish to stay at the inn, our business is our own…" answered Frodo. So the old man slowly opened the big wooden door to let us in…

Hope you all enjoyed that chapter! I would have typed more but it's rather late… and I think part of my right hand is falling asleep or has fallen asleep. Well anyways, please review!
