Chapter Number: 25

Chapter Title: Confront

Original Chapter Title: Gollum and Elle confrontation





The very small slice of the Fellowship traveled forth. Gollum loped in front followed by Frodo and Elanor. Behind them was Sam and bringing up the rear was Lauri.

"That's exactly what happened." Frodo chuckled.

"And the whole town just thought he disappeared?" Elanor's eyes grew wider. "How funny. He must truly be famous." She jested.

"Yes, the Baggins name was already tainted enough from his adventure so more damage is impossible to conceive." Frodo winked. Elanor laughed quietly grabbing hold of his hand.

"Hurrieessssss." Gollum called.

"Gollum, if we go any faster, we will have to sprout wings from or feet." Elanor quietly said.

"The other Hobbitsiesssss could keeps up beforess." Gollum snorted. Elanor jogged forward and walked backwards in front of Gollum.

"Is this better? Because I can out run you any day, creature. You just take us where we need to go and we won't kill you. The situation is in your favor. Think about it."

"Hobbitsiesss doesn't have to be means to Smeagol." Gollum snorted again loping farther ahead.

"I really don't trust him Frodo" Elanor whispered in his ear.

"Neither does Sam." Frodo said shaking his head. "But I don't know how else we'll get to Mordor"

The sun rose higher in the sky as a small ray of light fixed its self on Elanor eyes. She blinked a couple of times before shutting her eyes again and rolling over. 'How am I supposed to sleep at this time of day?' She wondered. Her ears perked up suddenly as she heard a rustle in the near by bush. She glanced at her sword and quietly picked it up. Crawling over to the bush she parted the leaves. Suddenly something lunged at her. She quickly lunged back and put whatever it was in a headlock.

"Hobbitisiessss!" it screeched.

"Gollum." Elle spat letting it go with disgust. "What are you prowling about for, the sun is still up?"

"Smeagol needed to asks Frodo's questionssssss." it sneered.

"Frodo doesn't need any business with you. Go back to sleep."

"But I wants to seee my preciousssss." he said then stopped, realizing that he said something he shouldn't have.

"Your precious? Is that what you're in for?" Elle coolly said, her anger rising. "Is that your plan? Is it? I'll tell you something, Gollum.."she grabbed him by the neck and held him in the air. "if you betray us, I'll make sure you'll never see it again. Or anything for that matter."

"Smeagol will leave the precccioussss alone, if Hobbittteesss will leave Smeagol's eyesessss alone." He shuddered closing his large eyelids shut.

Elanor threw him to the ground and put away her sword." Good. You've been warned once. I won't do it again."

"Smeagol thinks she shouldn't be here. Smeagol thinks he should make her goes away.." Gollum muttered to himself before slinking away into the shadows.
