Hi ya'll, I'm back! Um, can't think of much to say…'cept this ain't mine. JRR Tolkin wrote LotR before I wrote this fic. So there! YOU CAN'T TOUCH ME! YOU CAN'T TOUCH ME! OK, maybe you can. I would just like to say, I LIVE IN ARIZONA, USA! This is a desert, and doesn't get much snow. Where it does snow, I haven't been. I'm sorry for any mistakes I make about snow.

When Bobby and Jenny were settled down, Kiki sat beside them. Jenny was still nervous about the dark, and now the bitter cold was keeping her up too.

"Kiki? Will you sing to me?" Jenny loved to hear lullabies; they were always so pretty.

"All right, what would you like to hear?" Kiki asked, ever patient with her younger sister.

"Um, the ponies song! Please?" Jenny jumped with joy at the idea of getting a lullaby tonight.

"Hush a bye

Don't you cry

Go to sleep my little baby

When you wake

You shall have

All the pretty little ponies

In your bed

Mama said

Baby's riding off to dreamland

One by one

They've begun

Dance and prance for little Jenny

Blacks and bays, dapples and grays

Running in the night

When you wake

You shall have

All the pretty little ponies

Can you see the little ponies

Dance before your eyes

All the pretty little ponies

Will be there when you arise

Hush a bye

Don't you cry

Go to sleep my little baby…" As the last note drifted off, Kiki realized that her audience had extended to the rest of the fellowship. After a few minutes of stunned silence Legolas stood to take the first watch.

"If I ever hear you sing an elfish song, I will die a happy man." Stated Gimli.

"Maybe another day, right now I want some sleep." Kiki curled up behind Jenny and hugged both siblings to her to keep them warm. Kiki gave them her blanket and had only her cloak to keep her warm. Suddenly, warmth descended on her from above. It was Aragorn's blanket. She watched the man start to walk off.

"Wait." Kiki whispered "It is warmer the more people there are. Do you want to come sleep with us?" Aragorn looked at her with a dark light in his eyes. He couldn't seduce her if there were children in the way.

"Certainly." He said, eager to be warm.

"Gimli? You want to join?" Kiki asked the lonely looking dwarf who joined them. Before long, the entire fellowship was huddled by the fire in a tangle of blankets and sleepy bodies. Legolas stood near the entrance, keeping guard. The shift changed to Boromir, to Aragorn, to Kiki, to Gimli, to Gandalf.

With the morning, so had returned Kiki's temper. She woke up with a rather unclean mess of hair stuck in her mouth and an elbow in her stomach. At least, she assumed it was an elbow, she didn't think she could handle anything other than that. Boromir rolled over, arm flopping over Kiki's waist and hand on her butt. The man woke slowly, like rising from water.

"Good morning, sunshine." He mumbled at her.

"Get your nasty hair out of my mouth! I did not order cream of dirt for breakfast!" Yup, Kiki was her usual ray of sunshine in the morning. The two of them started a fight, which started out with words and ended up in fists. Kiki won in the end. Grabbing Boromir by the ear, Kiki dragged him outside. She scooped up some snow in a container and stuck it in the stew pot. When there was enough water, she poured it on Boromir's head. Taking out some soap, she tackled the panicking man and started rubbing it into his hair. Boromir screamed, and tried to get away, but Kiki wouldn't let him up. Some more snow had been set in the pot, and was ready for use a few minutes after she had his head totally covered in soap.

"ACK! NOT AGAIN!" he screeched again, as Kiki reached for the pot.

"Yes again!" Kiki poured the contents of the pot on the head of a rather soapy man. Boromir spluttered, coughed, and panicked. Gandalf was having hysterics watching the two of them. Frodo and Sam felt somewhere between amazed and shocked. Aragorn chuckled to himself and Legolas sniggered. Merry and Pip were the only ones that didn't get to see Kiki wash Boromir's hair. By the time she was finished, Boromir was soaked.

"Go put on your extra clothes, you don't want to freeze." She then directed Aragorn and Legolas, since they were of height with Boromir, to hold a blanket in front of the wet man as a changing tent.

"We can not stay in this cave forever, and I can't think of a way through the back with out digging a hole that will most likely cause the cave to collapse on us." Stated Kiki. The group listened for a minute, then.

"There is a fell voice on the air!" Shrieked Legolas

"No duh, genius! Saruman, or Caradhras, or whatever. We need to get down!" Kiki responded

"Thank you Captain Obvious!" Said Bobby, exasperated

"There is only one way we can go from here. Under the mountain." Said Gandalf

"Oi, Frodo! You decide!" Kiki again

"Well…Um"

"Moria, or tunnel?"

"Ummm…"

"Both are about the same."

"Moria!"

"Moria it is, then." Gandalf looked sad.

They started trudging down the mountain, cold (in Boromir's case, wet) and hungry. Kiki began reciting to herself again.

"Would you teach that to me?" Asked Legolas, upon hearing the poem.

"Repeat after me." Responded Kiki

" When shall we three meet again"

"When shall we three meet again" He followed, and the two for them recited Macbeth down the mountain. The day passed in much disappointment. After they got to the base of the mountain, nothing happened. They continued walking. As night fell, the fellowship setup camp. Soon everyone was content, except for the fact that no fire could be made. Kiki made sandwiches, a new device to the fellowship. They might have never seen one, for the earl of sandwich invented them. Kiki's food was always good, better than Aragorn's even. Gandalf was depressed, sitting as far away from the fellowship as possible.

"Gandalf?" Asked Kiki, walking over to him.

"Yes, Kiki?"

"You need not worry, everything will turn out perfectly."

"You would know."

"Yes, in fact, I do!"

"What would a woman know about the fate of a world that is not her own."

"Much. I know of your accent to white from gray, I know of the Balrog, I even know that at this moment, wargs are surrounding us."

"WARGS!"

"Shhh, not yet!" A howl was heard "Damn!"

"Aiya!" cried Legolas.

"Set them on fire, like you did with Bilbo!" Kiki called to Gandalf. His eyes narrowed at her.

"Are you an Istari? I know not of you or your home, but you seem to know a lot about us."

"Just do it!" Gandalf did, throwing flaming pinecones at the beasts. Legolas' arrows filled the night, and Aragorn and Boromir's swords danced. Kiki kicked out at any that got too close, always there if one broke through the line of defense. After a few minutes of intense fighting, they started to run for Moria.

The group waded through the murky waters in front of the gate into Moria. As soon as the nasty water touched Jenny's foot, she began to cry.

"Shhh, Jenny." Said Kiki, lifting her little sister out of the water. But Jenny kept crying.

"When the last eagle flies

Over the last crumbling mountain

And the last lion roars

At the last dusty fountain." Jenny joined in, and before the little girl knew it, they were acrossed the evil waters. Gandalf found the entrance to Moria, and began trying to remember the password.

"Gandalf? What does the bit on the arch say?" Asked Frodo.

"Speak, friend, and enter."

"Well, what does that mean?" asked Merry

"It is simple, if you are a friend speak the password and you may enter."

"Oh. What is the password." Said Pippin.

"I don't know." Gandalf said, then he spotted Kiki talking to her siblings.

"Kiki? Do you know the password?"

"Of course, it's right there on the door."

"Hn." Gandalf snorted. "Then you open it." Kiki stood before the door, doing nothing special.

"Mellon." She said. The woman turned to Gandalf. "Easy as pie. Now lets go!" Kiki really didn't want to face the watcher in the water. A tentacle shot out of the water. "Too late." She jumped in, biting at the limb, since she had no blade of her own. Sam was right in front of her, hacking away at the limb before it retreated. As the rest of the fellowship relaxed, Kiki tensed up.

"In the cave. Now!" She hollered. This time they grabbed up the girl, lifting Kiki up high above the waters' surface. Legolas and Aragorn were the first to join in, followed by Boromir. After taking several hits, the thing dropped back under the water and Kiki in the deeper part of the shallows. She came up spitting the vial water out of her mouth, and soaked.

"In now!" she screamed at the trio that had risked their necks for her. She stumbled out of the water, none to happy about her unofficial bath. As she cleared the doors, the watcher grabbed and closed them.

"Time to face the long dark of Moria." She murmured.
