Ariwen's Visit to the Shire
Part 3
Disclaimer: I don't own LOTR, but I do own a replica of the pillars of Argonath!
StarwarsFREAK: I won't be able to do it. You see, I originally posted this story on a different website and I'm only making a few minor changes to make it fit in more. In this chapter, the plot takes an abrupt turn. Anyway, I'm really sorry and thanks for reviewing!
Ariwen woke early the next morning to find her mother shaking her awake. Drowsily, she said, "Mother! If its not Lorichen, its you!"
"Good morning to you too, honey." Arwen replied as if she hadn't heard what her daughter had said. "By the way, dear, I think you might be meeting a lot of new friends in this house."
At that, Ariwen jumped out of bed so fast that a passerby would have thought that the bed was arrayed with poisonous spikes. Accepting her daughter's reaction as an answer, Arwen handed her a new dress for the day and went off to join the rest at breakfast.
As soon as Ariwen had eaten, she went off to play with the Hobbit children. She had tried to persuade Eldarion to come with her, but he had wanted to go back to the campsite with their father.
She found that as Elanor was the oldest, she was the quickest to make friends with the newcomer. Ariwen and Elanor were about the same age, so that just made it easier for the two to become fast friends. There was also one more reason why the two were so good together: they were both mischievous.
Elanor started off with giving Elanor a tour of Hobbiton. Then she mentioned Farmer Maggot's crop. Not the Farmer Maggot in Buckland, but his brother, there in Hobbiton. As it turned out, both of them had a slight addiction to mushrooms.
With a short conversation and a few nods, all had been decided. They set out for the farm.
Now Elanor had been in it so many times before, she knew the farm like the back of her hand. An advantage for them since the farmer couldn't remember whether the west side was cabbages or carrots.
Elanor quickly lead Ariwen to the mushrooms. "Quick!" she hissed, handing Ariwen a small basket. While Ariwen held the basket, Elanor piled mushrooms in it until no more could fit. Right when they were about to make their getaway...THUD!
Farmer Maggot had snuck up on them and knocked all the mushrooms out of the basket all the while muttering something akin to, "Stinkin' young varmints! Ever set foot on me land again, I'll take care of 'em."
That was when he spotted Ariwen and at once he knew that this was no Hobbit at all, by any means. "Aye" he said with wonder. "Who may you be? It's been long year since the Big Folk wandered our lands."
"I-I am Ariwen Telcontar, daughter of the King Aragorn Elessar of Gondor and Arnor." Ariwen said with as much dignity as she could muster.
"Aye, Milady. Your father shall hear of this soon enough. As will yours, Miss Gamgee."
Both girls gulped. This was not going to be very fun. With that, Farmer Maggot dragged the duo by their ears all the way back to Bag End.
