Nuts in Middle Earth

Chapter 12 - Epilogue

____________________

Debora was still clutching Boromir to her body as Claudia leant forward and caressed her cheek, sharing her friend's pain. The moment they touched, an amazing thing happened. There was a blast of light surrounding them. Both girls felt their heads light-headed, and then everything seemed to spin around them, faster and faster as time passed by.

Suddenly, Debora and Claudia found themselves back at the Movie Theater.

"Noooo..." Debora moaned in desperation. "We were SO close! If only...I can't believe he died. I know that's what supposed to happen, but...I kept thinking we'd manage to save him somehow..."

Claudia didn't know how to comfort her friend, so she just held Debora's left hand in sympathy for her pain. She herself felt heartbroken, for before they had left Middle Earth in the blast of light she had still seen Legolas beautiful face, and heard him sadly whisper, "Farewell, amaelamin."

Debora started to silently cry, but still she couldn't avert her eyes from the screen. She said, almost in a whisper. "Every time I see this scene, I feel..."

"Nauseated?" a strangled voice from Debora's right side interrupted her.

She looked at the owner of that voice, a hopeful feeling gnawing at her gut.

"B!" Debora yelled, and jumped at Boromir's lap, straddling him on the movie chair.

Unbelievingly, impossibly, somehow Boromir had come with them to Earth. And not only that, but no arrows were sticking from his chest. He was unhurt. Alive. It was like magic.

This certainly was enough reason for celebrating.

And Debora and Boromir didn't waste anytime. Soon, they were kissing each other like the first time they had met and given unthinkingly to their primal sexual feelings for each other.

Claudia was startled and speechless for a moment, but soon regained the use of her voice. "Boromir! It's great to see you here, alive!"

The couple completely ignored her. They were busy.

"Boromir? Debora?" Claudia called tentatively. They still didn't answer. Claudia gasped. Were they really going to do it IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOVIE THEATER???

"Deb, this is a public place..." she said, uncomfortable by the couple's...er... fervent interaction.

Claudia knew they still hadn't heard her when the only answer she got was the 'thud' of their bodies falling to the floor.

THE END

*****

You REALLY thought Debora was going to leave without B? After all, and under the given circumstances, Claudia DID have to leave Legolas behind.

Besides, this started as a funny fic, so, we couldn't end it with such a sad scene as we did with chapter 11! ;) We hope you enjoyed reading this story as much as we enjoyed writing it.

THANK YOU for everyone who took the time to read and review this! Especially for those of you faithful readers who kept reading and reviewing each and every chapter we uploaded.

Just one more thing before we go: you can expect to hear from us again, with a sequel to this fic, in January 2003! Yep, that's right. As soon as the Two Towers is out (down here on Latin America, where we both live :)), we'll begin working on it. So, we should have it ready for posting by January.

Until then, farewell dear friends! :)
