Chapter 48:

Annoying the Elf Again

After resting up for a day or two, we began again our quest. Merry and Pippin acted like it was their job to watch Ka and Ki, although we had not told them to do so. WE had not told them to do so, however, I think Pippin still felt threatened. I felt pleased about it.

Upon parting, each of the Fellowship received a gift from the lady of Lothlorien. Chi received a new bow and quiver, as Legolas did. Ki and Ka both received armor, to protect them and each a dagger as Merry and Pippin did. I received another bagful of medicines and instructions on how to use them. Aragorn could not receive anything that would compare with the affections of Arwen Evenstar. At least, that was what I thought she said. I did not pay attention to see what Boromir received, but to Sam she have rope, as he had been wishing that he had since I had met him. And to Frodo, she gave a small phial, although I couldn't tell what it was. There was a moving scene in which Gimli received three of Galadriel's hairs and we left.

"What's this stuff called again?" I asked, munching on some bread-type stuff that the Elves had given us, "It's really good."

"It is called lembas." Legolas said, "Do not eat more, for we must save it for when it will be needed. You have already eaten more than is needed for a day's journey."

"If you say so." I said, putting the rest of it away in my bag, "There! I learned an Elf word. Now I know two of them! L…lembas, right? And mellon."

That started Chi singing out a song that my siblings and I had made the past few days when we were bored to annoy Elves, "Water-mellon and Honey-dew-mellon and cantaloupe too. The world is full of yummy mellon's, let's barbecue.." Then it began over again.

I thought about singing along as well, but I noticed that Legolas was looking annoyed with Chi, so I whispered loudly a warning to her.

"Hey, you better be careful, they might tip the boat over just to knock you out!"

"Oh, they can't do that or Aragorn would have tossed you out a long time ago! Didn't you hear that these boats can't sink or tip over?" She laughed and started singing again, "The ants go marching one by one…"

I looked up at Aragorn. She must have been right. I just didn't want to push my luck. Not that I couldn't swim, but I knew that Sam couldn't, and this was a fast moving river.

Soon Ki and Ka, who were in the boat with Merry, Pippin, and Boromir started to join in with Chi. Well, I wasn't going to be left out, so I started singing as well. And as soon as they caught onto the words, the Hobbits joined in as well.

"And they all go marching down, to the ground, to get out, of the rain…"

Hmmmm… References? I missed the whole "Just one bite is enough to fill a grown Man's stomach" "How many did you eat?" "Four." lines. (Sigh) I liked that one! It was in the extended version.
