Chapter 4 - Finally, The Trip's Over!!!

Yes, the trip was over. Finally. Of course, there were some minor difficulties.

~*~

"ooooowwwwwwww...."

It was about 4 hours after the unfortunate SHOUTING incident, but Pip and Merry's ears were still ringing. And not really ringing. More like ROARING. Have you ever been in a windtunnel? That's about the sound they heard right about now.

And also, there were minor complications in the food. Apparently, cream soda plus jolly rancher lollipops plus large amounts of noise yield a) Digestive difficulties (stomach ache), b) Paranoia and other shizophrenic tendencies, and c) Hyperness bordering on sleepy insanity.

As the others soon found out.

"hAhAhAhA!!!! Fear ME!!!! MWUHAHAHA!!"

"No FEAR ME!!!! DIE!!!"

And so this went on for about 2 hours. And it kept up until each and every one of them had passed out. With the exception of the driver, who is smart and doesn't drink caffiene, which can be quite intoxicating in large doses, while on the road. GO MR.DRIVER MAN!!!!!!!!

2 hours later..

"ow. Just ow."

"same."

"Where's my lollipop?"

"Gee.I dunno Merry..do you TSI?"

"Nope, not me either Merry. Oh well, I'm sure we'll find it sometime or other."

Finally, they all woke up. With a rather strange sympton similar to amnesia and a throbbing migraine. All except the driver, who suffered no after- effects. And the cat. Can't forget her.

"Where am I???"

"I dunno. Hey lady, d'ya know here we are?"

"Of course, it's the bus. Headed toward the Keys. From New York. We're about to get there in about an hour. Get some sleep, you look like something with 5 legs and 3 arms ran over you."

Which was of course true. They were the picture of hyper fatigue: dark circles under their eyes, extreme fatigue, etc.

"How do you know all this?"

"I'm the author. I know everything."

"Oh." (o.o)

"Yea."

"Do you realize that hobbits look really cute when they sleep?"

"..." (Pippin- ^_^;; )

1 hour Later....

"EVERYBODY WAKE UP IT'S TIME TO GET UP HURRY HURRY HURRY!!!!!"

As usual, TSI had recruited Pippin to wake up everybody, on account of his loud SHOUTS.

The effect was instantaneous.

"I'M UP I'M UP WHERE'S THE FIRE AHHHHHH!"

"MY EARS! NOT AGAIN YOU LIL' MIDGET!"

"I AM NOT A MIDGET!!"

"EVERYBODY SHUT IT!"

*crickets heard in the background*

"O K EVERYONE LET'S LINE UP OFF THE BUS IN A QUICK, ORDERLY FASHION..BOROMIR! NO SNEAKING OFF! AND ARAGORN! I'M ASHAMED!"

A severely rebuked Boromir and Aragorn walked back to the line.

"Little tyrant.and I'm at least twice as old as she is, the controlling..."

"Aragorn, I hope you know that I can hear you."

Aragorn - o.o

TSI - *^_^*

~*~

Will Aragorn and Boromir survive the iron fist of TSI? Will they win the band competition? Will Merry get his lollipop back? Does anyone care? Tune in next time for ~*~Sugar Tales - Road Trip~*~

(A/n: Well that wasn't so hard. Writing chapters of about 500 words isn't so hard once you get the hang of it. I'll try to get as many chapters up as possible, because it's the WEEKEND!!! Free TIME!!!
