Chapter 2
"Ow!" Pippin yelled as the Hobbits tumbled down a steep hill to get away from Farmer Maggot.
When they reached the bottom Pippin was inches away from horse droppings and the others were entangled with him.
"O, that was close" Pippin exclaimed as the others started to untwist themselves from each other.
"Pippin, do us a favor and . . ." Merry started, but Pippin interrupted.
"Mushrooms!" Pippin yelped as he looked over the pile of dung and saw fabulous looking mushrooms a few inches away.
Sam, Merry and Pippin started running over to pick them, but Frodo sensed something and didn't get into all the excitement.
"That's a nice one Sam" Merry said, taking a mushroom from Sam and put it in a little bag. Pippin putting one mushroom in the bag and eating all the rest he could get his hands on. Merry eventually saw this, so he slapped Pippin's head to make him stop eating all of them.
"Get off the road!" Frodo said urgently, Sam and Merry had to drag Pippin away from the mushrooms they didn't have time to pick. Pippin finally obeyed and jumped off the road under a log.
Trot, trot, trot went hooves of a horse, then it stopped, right above the Hobbits' hiding place. Frodo looked through a gap in the log to take a peek of this creature that he felt afraid of. Thump, a pair of shoes got off the horse and started walking around.
Pippin felt something on his feet, so he quietly lifted a foot up and saw squirmy maggots and worms underneath, Merry had to hold Pippin's mouth to keep him from gagging. Pippin having all those mushrooms just a few minutes ago, he would've threw up if the creature wasn't looking right over them, sniffing for a scent.
