Angel had turned off the movie in what seemed a nano second, and the children's screams had been reduced pained whimpers. "Well, we know they don't like cheep anime."

"How comforting," Cora grumbled. "Hey...were's Aragorn and Elrond?" Two white sheets were piled on the floor, their captives missing. Just then they heard a loud CLINK in the kitchen, followed by the sound of uncooked noodles being spilled onto the floor. Then another CLINK and another. "What are they getting into now?" The teens looked at each other nervously. "Angel, you go check."

"Me, you do it!"

"Sari, your house, you check."

"Right. Make sure none of the others get out,' Sari ordered.

"Erm...too late," Angel moaned as the last toddler hobbit crawled around the corner.

"Goddess, now you know why I quit babysiting," Sari growled.

"I thought it was because those two hellspawn dragged a deer carcass out of the cornfield and presented it to you as if it was the best gift in the world,' Angel remarked.

"That too." (A/N: that really did happen to me, and yes it was gross) "We'd better see what they're getting into."

"We'll be right behind you," Anegl promised.

"How about right beside me?"

"No, we'll be behind you," Cora stated. "That way if they attack, you'll get the brunt of it."

"Thanks."

"Your welcome."
