Ok, here's Chapter 2. Enjoy!
Middle-Earth.Meet the Cowgirl!!!
I jumped at the sound of my bedside phone ringing. Sleepily, I glanced over at my alarm clock; 2:00 A.M. was what it read. I picked up the phone and answered in a groggy voice," Hello?" " Denee, how can you sleep at a time like this?" asked my friend Cindil. She was always up this early. Being the computer-whiz, she was always surfing the web, looking for news on Orlando Bloom or any other famous people. She was my other best friend and also loved The Lord of the Rings. Her horses name was Ditto 2 U 2, a brown/white American paint horse. " So," she said sarcastically," Did I wake you up?" " Do you ever sleep, Cindil. You're like an owl. Go bother someone else like BRITTANY SPEARS!!!" I yelled into the receiver, not caring if my parents heard or not. " HELLO DENEE! LLE ANTA AMIN TU!?! I HATE BRITTANY HOOCH!!! Hey, listen. Ben got here last night and he wants to go for a ride. What do you think? Can you handle it again?" " As long as he doesn't make anymore stupid jokes about the weasel and the toilet," I said, yawning. "Great," yipped Cindil. " See you at 10:00 at your house. Oh and one more thing: GOODMORNING ALKI!!!" Seconds later, I heard the dial tone on the end of the line. I hung up, groaned, and flopped back down onto my bed.

I could see Cindil and Ben coming down the path on their horses: Cindil on Ditto and Ben on Shadow. I called out from on Tiny. Tied to my saddle was a large duffel bag full of my party stuff: CD's, pictures, candy, magazines and more. I was going to stay the night at Cindil's and work with her for the gymkana coming up. Ben was going to help. He was from London and hadn't been around horses before, but Cindil gave him riding lessons and he was a natural. " Come on Denee. We'd better hurry. They say there's a big storm coming," shouted Ben from atop Shadow. All three of us took off towards Cindil's house as the wind kicked up. Rain began to pelt down on us as we sped up, splashing through puddles. Red lightning struck the ground around us as Ben pulled back to help me. He handed me his raincoat and motioned for me to speed up. I nodded and nudged Tiny with my heels. At that second, lightning struck the ground between Tiny and Shadow, separating Ben and Cindil from me. The last thing I heard was Cindil and Ben screaming. There was a bright flash and then nothing.
"Strangers from distant lands, friends of old. You've been summoned here to answer the threat of Mordor. Bring forth the ring, Frodo." Frodo stood to do what he was told but stopped when Elrond suddenly looked up with a start. " AAAAAAHHHHHHHH-OOF!" Lying on the stone floor in front of him was a young girl, dressed very strangely. " Ouchy," was all I could say as I groaned and sat up. " Don't want to do again.hurts.pain.ouch.yeah." As my eyes ujusted to the light, I found myself face-to-face with a dwarf. " Mommy, you didn't say Santa was visiting.OH DEAR LORD!" screamed launching to my feet, owl-eyed and shocked. I sank back to the floor when I realized where I was. " Who are you and what are you doing in Rivindell?" asked the dwarf I had seen earlier. He held his ax to my throat. ' HEY, mister. Put that THING away RIGHT NOW!!! Okay," I said standing up and brushing of my jeans and T- shirt. I realized I was getting many weird looks and looked around. " What?" I asked looking around. " Do I have something on my face?" No answer. " Okay, hello my name is Denee and I'm from California, year 2002 of the 22nd century. Nice to meetcha'!" Still, there was no answer. I heard something, and looked around, only to have my duffel bag hit me in the head. "Kuso!" I yelled rubbing the sore spot. "That hurt." I heard a loud whinny and everyone stood and looked in the direction of a small lake with a waterfall cascading into it. I turned to see Tiny fighting to stay afloat. " Baka! Damn horse!" I yelled, running over and jumping into the water. " Crud, it's cold," said grabbing the reins and pulling Tiny towards shore. As soon as we had footing, I shook off and looked up. 'Sheesh, their quiet' I thought. I suddenly felt sleepy and passed out.
*Pleaz be nice. It's my first attempt at a humor fic. It's my first one. R&R!!
