Oops, haven't updated for long, long time! Here, new chapter! Read! And giggle!



"Dumb bushes."

"What?"

"Dumb wheat."

"What is she talking about, Mister Frodo?"

"Dumb clouds."

"I don't know, Sam."

"Dumb hobbits."

"Hey!"

Walking for ten hours straight had not noticeably improved Niko's temper, which wasn't all that good to begin with. After considering several courses of action as to what to do until Merry and Pippin showed up, she had decided on labeling everything "dumb."

"We're still in a wheat field." She pointed out.

Frodo stared at her. "I know that. Why are you telling us that?"

Niko thought for a minute. "Uh." Then she did a double take. "Where's Sam?" The chubby little hobbit had disappeared.

Frodo looked around, but saw him nowhere. "Sam? Sam!" He turned to go back.

"Just wait, he'll show up in a second and spout off a memorable line about- "

"Mister Frodo! I thought I'd lost you!"

Niko sighed. Sam annoyed her. Alot.

"What are you talking about, Sam?" Frodo looked slightly annoyed and nervous, and was edging away from the two of them as Sam advanced, a slightly obsessed look on his face.

"It's just something Gandalf said. 'Don't you lose him, Samwise Gamgee.' And I don't mean t-"

Niko stepped on his foot. "God that's freaky. LEAVE. Not lose. Make up your mind! The line is leave, you ...dimtwit." She kicked him, but lost her balance and fell on her behind, the heavy pack she wore weighing her down.

They stared. Then abruptly got bowled over by what appeared to be two quickly moving vegetables. (A/N VEG-IT-ABLES! YUM!)



All done! For now. Hee. I have no idea why I'm continuing this; maybe it's because I want to write a story that DOESN'T stop at Rivendell (When Legolas comes in. Ptth.) And eventually get somewhere! Yay! I need sleep. Review, review! And I'll love you! Or feed you cookys, whatever milks yer Guernsey.
