1 Chapter 3
They entered the Palace and made their way to the Great Hall. They went in and saw that almost everyone had showed up. Aragorn, obviously, Becky, Clare, Tracey, Pippin, Merry, Sam and Gimli were all there. Mary-Jo, Frodo and Gandalf weren't there as, according to the hobbits, they had gone over the Sea, to the Havens, with the other Elves.
"We did it, Aragorn!" Robyn said, as they entered. "He's here!"
"Well done, Robyn." Said Aragorn. "I knew you could be trusted. Welcome back, Legolas. It's been too long." Legolas smiled. The hobbits and Gimli were staring at Robyn in amazement.
"Robyn?" said Pippin. "This is my goddaughter? Bloody hell, you look like your mother! It's actually quite scary!" Robyn laughed.
"Well, it's got to be true because so many people have told me. You must be Pippin. And you two would be Merry and Sam. And you would be Gimli." They each nodded their heads as she said their names. "But there are some people missing."
"Gandalf, Frodo and Mary-Jo went over the Sea." Said Sam, gloomily.
"Well, we'll hear more of that later." Said Faramir. "We all know why we're hear, don't we?" They all nodded their heads. "Michelle is in trouble, and we need to help her. Aragorn, has there been any improvements?" Aragorn looked pensive.
"We received this a couple of weeks ago." Aragorn handed a sheet of paper. It read:
She is ours now.
If you want her, come and claim her.
But, she will regret her actions.
She will beg for death.
She will never be the same.
"Where has it come from?" said Legolas.
"We don't know." Said Aragorn. "Whoever it is knows that we know, because it left here, at the Palace. Yet, the guards swear they saw no- one."
"How do you know they aren't lying?" said Robyn.
"It was Arwen that questioned them. She knows when someone is lying to her, but she says they were telling the truth."
"So, there is absolutely nothing to go on?" said Tracey.
"Unfortunately, not." Said Aragorn. "And unless we do find out something, we can't go and find her. We have absolutely no idea where she is or why someone has taken her."
"She could be dead." Said Robyn, quietly.
"Don't say that." Said Legolas.
"Why not? It's true. The note said 'she will beg for death', and mom almost always gets what she wants! It, also, said 'she will never be the same'. She'll be changed. She won't be my mom or your friend anymore."
"They often say things like that. It's usually just to scare people. To make people pay what ever ransom they are asking for." Said Aragorn.
"But they aren't asking for anything, are they?" Nobody had an answer to that. Maybe it was pointless. If they had no leads and she wouldn't be the same if they found her, perhaps they should give up.

"Could you untie me, please."
"And why would I want to do that?"
"Why are you doing this?"
"Because you have to pay."
"What for?"
"You know perfectly well what for."
"No, I don't or I wouldn't be asking." *SMACK*
"Less lip from you!"
"Or what?" *SMACK* "OW!"
"Or you'll get that even harder!"
"Ooh, I'm really scared!" *SMACK*
"I see we need to teach you a lesson." *SMACK* *SMACK* *SMACK*
