Fellowship Follies
Chapter 3: An Unexpected Trip
By Babmidnight
Legolas walked back to the rest of the Fellowship with Merry and Pippin in tow.
"I found Merry and Pippin. Shall we leave and get some traveling done before sun sets completely?"
"Yes lets get moving" said Gandalf.
Aragorn and Boromir walked up front with Gandalf while Gimli and Legolas walked in back not looking at each other but keeping the hobbits in front of them.
They hiked for Two hours before the hobbits started to complain.
"Aragorn, don't you think we should stop and get some sleep?" asked Sam
"Just a bit further Sam, just a bit more, why we just need to make it to the bottom of the hill and perhaps we'll rest for the night." Said Aragorn
They started up the rocky hill surrounded by trees. They stopped to take a breather. It was now dark, the moon was out, high up in the sky.
"Come were almost there, the bottom of the hill will be a good resting place for the night." Said Aragorn.
Aragorn started to head down the hill with Boromir behind him while the others got up.
Not seeing a tree root Aragorn tipped barely catching his balance, only not to see the medium sized rock. He tried to grab hold of Boromir to catch his balance. His grip on Boromir didn't last and he fell, rolling down the hill.
"Oof"
Boom
Jow
Aragorn landed in the in a pond of mud. He laid there for a minute trying not to think of the pain and how he could missed seeing that rock after tipping on a tree root.
Pow
Wham
"holy rolling hill, Batman"
Suddenly Aragorn felt a weight on top of him. He tried to get up, hoping the person on top of him would get off him or roll off. He couldn't get up, the person on him was to heavy. He turned his head.
"Boromir please do get off me."
"Hey, it's not my fault you tripped and made me fall after you!"
Boromir got off of Aragorn and helped Aragorn up both thoroughly covered in mud.
"Pippin, what do you say we throw Boromir back down in the mud?" whispered Merry
"Yeah" whispered Pippin
"On the count of three! One…Two…Three…"
Merry pushed Pippin down the hill right onto Boromir, both now in the mud.
"MUD Fight!!" screamed Gimli
"No Gimli, we must get some rest!" said the mud covered Aragorn
Splat
"Opps, sorry, I'm done now" said Gimli trying not to laugh at now muddy Frodo.
Pippin and Boromir got out of the mud and followed Aragorn away from the muddy pond.
The fellowship found a place far away from the pond so no one else would trip and fall in mud. No need to have a repeat of the last mud covered men.
"So Boromir, Aragorn, it seems I'm not the only one falling into water."
"How does it feel to be wet and shall we say muddy?" asked Gimli
Boromir and Aragorn glared at Gimli and went on about doing their business getting ready to get some rest while Legolas kept watch.
The next morning they woke up, while all realized that they still had two very dirty mud covered companions who could very well both use a bath.
