OK, I hope this fic is a tad more successful than the others. I know the
idea has been used TONS of times but I felt compelled to write this when
sitting in maths wondering what drying paint looks like, when I suddenly
though 'what would the Fellowship do if they were here?' and so, this fic
is born. Also, I like these fics, and have been searching high and low for
one that doesn't make my Gims out to be a complete and utter prat.
Thankyou sooooo much for all those reviews! I love you all! I doubt any rebellion will be shown. If it is, it'll be mild. This one's specially for Malfunkiel (spelling?) cos she reviewed despite our fights. Merry xmas!
I use the English methods of grades (i.e. year 7-11). And I have decided to use boarding school since this will make it a hell of a lot easier and a hell of a lot more fun to write. Also, all you rebels out there, I am NOT a rebel at school, so I'm afraid any rebellius students will be written from how I see them. I'm also afraid *of* any rebellious students. Sorry about that, thought I'd make a point.
Disclaimer- I own nothing. Nothing is mine. Nothing mentioned in this fic belongs to me. A few OC's are made up by me but you can use 'em. I don't really care that much.

"Anything is possible..."
"Yeah, that's not gonna be getting annoying any time soon!"
"Good, I'm glad. So I can carry on then. Now, where was I... oh yeah, when you believe in meeeee!"
Estella groaned and clamped a hand across her friend Diamond's mouth.
"Now," she said in a mock-threatening tone, "I'll let go of your mouth, IF you promise not to sing, okay?"
"Mmph."
"Sure?"
"Mmph."
"Okay." Estella released her grip, and regretted it.
"In a world full of strangers ack!"
That wasn't actually how the song went but Estella had just grabbed Diamonds long curly blonde pony-tail and given it a huge yank. Diamond squealed and fell backwards, tripping over one of her over-large feet and lying sprawled on her back in the middle of the corridor.
"Hello you two. Glad to see you're getting along JUST fine!"
"Push off, Arwen,"suggested Estella, helping Diamond up. Her less than enthusuastic expression portrayed quite clearly her distaste for the she- Elf.
"You're in a pleasant mood, Bolger," Arwen laughed, flicking back her long dark hair. Diamond shuffled uncomfortably.
"Leave it, 'Stella," she mumbled, "I don't mind her really."
Estella opened her mouth to say something, shut it again (which made her look remarkably like a fish) then sighed. She grabbed Diamond's arm and dragged her off down the corridor towards maths.
They arrived five minutes late, and Professor Gorbag looked up reprovingly, "You're late, girls," the Uruk-hai growled, narrowing his small piggy eyes into even more of a glare and gesturing with a dangerous-looking claw to two seats near the front of the classroom.
Meekly, the two she-Hobbits sat down and automatically began to copy the problems off the white-board. Someone grabbed Estella's plait and pulled it down. She whirled round to glare at the boy Hobbit behind her.
"What d'you want, Brandybuck?" she snarled at Merry. Merry blinked.
"Me? I didn't do nothing!"
"Exactly, if you didn't do nothing you must have done SOMETHING so what d'you want!?"
Merry realized axactly two seconds too late that he was caught out. So he turned on his most charming smile, and spoke in -what he considered to be- a suave voice.
"I just wanted to see if you're hair was as strong and silky as it looks from here," he spoke cheerfully.
Estella snorted and turned back to her book, feeling the tell-tale blush creeping up the back of her neck. She heard Merry and his cousin Frodo snickering behind her. She wanted desperately to thump Merry but couldn't because he was so... he was so damn cute!
"I think he likes you!" Diamond whispered cheekily.
"Shut up," Estella suggested, "And give me the answer to number two."

"Snap!"
"Boromir," Legolas explained patiently, "We're not playing *snap* we're playing *sevens*."
Gimli rolled his eyes. The three were sitting in their dormitory at break- time with a rather worn pack of cards that belonged to Gimli. Actually, most things that belonged to Gimli were old and worn, because his family were notoriously poor. Though if anyone ever mentioned it in bad grace then wo-betide them.
"Right," Legolas said gently to the man, "Let's start again, first you-"
BANG!
"Evenin' Guvner!" said Gimli without looking up.
"Huh?"
The Dwarf's head flew up. He had strongly suspected that it was Aragorn, and knew that it annoyed the stuffing out of him to be greeted with "mornin' guvner!" or "evenin' guvner!" but Aragorn, Gimli remembered, was doing detention for flicking a paper ball at Professor Gorbag's ear. It was Diamond.
She sat down, watching the three of them. "You playing snap?" she queried.
Legolas's head hit the bed with a defeated thunk, "No!"
"Snap!" offered Boromir with a huge grin. Legolas began beating himself over the head with a pillow.
"Can I help?" Gimli grabbed another pillow and proceeded to assist Legolas in knocking himself unconscious.
"Hey!!" Legolas smacked the pillow against Gimli's broad chest, but the Dwarf took the blow easily, with a lop-sided grin forming on his face. This was quickly wiped out when the lightning-quick Elf managed to wack the pillow across Gimli's ankles, causing the Dwarf to stumble and fall off the bed he'd been standing on.
"I'll get you, Elf!" He cried, and bounded after the fleeing, giggling Prince. Diamond and Boromir watched bemusedly (though Boromir did quite a lot of things bemusedly). After a while of awtching Gimli nad Legolas tear around the room, Boromir lost track of who was chasing who and turned to Diamond.
"What did you come up here for?"
"I was looking for Estella."
"Why'd she be here?"
"Dunno. I've looked most place else."
"Oh." Boromir was unale to come up with an intelligent response to that so he fell quiet.
"If you don't get back here Gimli, I will TELL Elrond that you were the one that yelled 'DOOM! DESTRUCTION!!' at him when he was on the way to the staff room yesterday!"
"You do that, and I'll personally let slip that it was YOU who let Pippin have extra mushrooms at lunch earlier, therefore giving Celeborn hell throughout his class!"
"No fair..." Diamond muttered more to herself than Boromir, who had become fascinated by a pigeon on the windowsill, "You get free entertainment up here...."
