Frodo, the Ring, and Me
Chapter 1
The Escape
Gwevyan ran, jumped, ducked, and even waded. Anything to get away from her father's guards. No matter where
she went, she could still hear them. There had to be a way out. There had to be a way to freedom. Just where could it
be?
Gwevyan and her family lived in a little hobbit village right outside of the Shire. She had visited there many
times. She had just turned 29 and her father expected her to marry. But she was not like that. There were
places to travel to. Challenges not met. She couldn't marry now. Not now.
Gwevyan thought of this as she ran. " No." she thought. " I will not be a prisoner in my own life." This thought
encouraged her to run even faster. She was heading down a hill toward Hobbiton so her speed was gathering
but there were so many trees to dodge. She thought she had finally outrun the guards when she tripped and
rolling down the hill she landed facedown on a dirt road.
She lifted her head with a mouthful of dust. She had landed on her favorite road that led through the
countryside. It was beautiful out here. All you could see were fields and hobbit-holes. The people seemed so
friendly out here. It was so peaceful that she forgot her worries for a minute. But they soon came back to her.
she looked for a way out but could not find one.
All hope was lost until she spotted a cart that had stopped about ten yards in front of her. Driving the cart
was an older gentleman dressed in nothing but gray. He was talking to a young hobbit on the bank. She snuck
into the bushes beside the road to get a better look at this cart. She examined it while making sure no one
could see her. There were fireworks in the back but no cover over top. Then she spotted her invitation out of
here. On the bottom of the cart were two boards. She could lay on them and never be noticed. Oh if only the
hobbit standing there wasn't able to see her.
As if they heard her thoughts the hobbit jumped onto the cart and hugged the human. This was her chance.
She jumped under the cart and hung on. Just in time too. The guards ran by without even looking at the cart
which was now moving. Finally Gwevyan had escaped.
Well what do you think? Please R/R. Next chapters coming soon. I need to update some more stories. I
promise to hurry.
