Has anyone seen four hobbits?
Chapter 4: Sam Gamgee, the teenage hobbit...
Author: Minnie
Things I own and don't own: I own me, the plot, the made-up-characters and lots of other stuff. I DON'T own LotR (nooo, you don't say!) or anything that /*TOLKIEN*/ has made up, scat/any drug, or something from Robot Wars. But I really /love/ Sir Killalot! ~.^
M/N: Two hobbits found, two left. God, why did I ever suggest a picnic?!
Summary: It started out with a picnic, which ended with four disappeared hobbits, and continued with me searching after them all over the town… I've found Frodo, in a jewellery, and Pippin, at a restaurant. I've tighed us together at our wrists, with bands, so that we'll not lose each other again. You may think that I should send 'em home again, but I just don't have the time to do that. When I've found 'em all, then they're going to get home! Next one to find is Sam, who thinks he's a teenager…

"For the bloody hell 11th time!" Pippin shouted. "SLOW IT DOWN, MINNIE!!!"
"I hafta find Sam and Merry, so I can't slow down, you fool of a Took!" Minnie answered, as she ran as fast as she could.
Pippin and Frodo, tighed to her wrist with bands, tried to stop her, but failed. Suddenly Minnie heard voices from a slum. One of them she recognized as Sam's. Minnie abruptly stopped, causing Frodo and Pippin to bump into her.
"Listen!" Minnie said. "It's Sam! Sam!"
The voices stopped, and soon Sam's head popped out from behind a box.
"Huh? Ey, Minnie! And you two!"
"Us two?" Frodo said offended.
"Are you so high that you can't remember our names, or what?" Pippin asked.
"Hey, what do you know about that?" Minnie said.
"Ya don't think we're all behind, do ya?"
"No, not actually, but..."
"Ey, come 'ere, pals! Meet mah new buddies!" Sam cut of.
The three newcomers walked up to him, and saw five other persons.
"This is Tim..."
"Hiya!"
"Kevin..."
"Call me Kev."
"Aaron..."
"Hi..."
"Martin..."
"Hullo..."
"And last, but not least, Glen."
"Nice tah be a-seeing ye..."
Minnie sat down between Sam and Kevin, and started to talk. Pippin and Frodo stood behind her and watched them, until Minnie turned around.
"Why are you just standing there, looking dumfound?"
"Well, we're... just watching..."
"Oh, come on, sit down!"
And with that, Minnie dragged both hobbits into the circle, one on each side of her due to the bands (M/N: If you're interested, the placing is like this, from Sam and left: Sam, Frodo, Minnie, Pippin, Kevin, Glen, Aaron, Tim and Martin. And then Sam again, of course). Kevin gave Minnie little tube with some white powder in it.
"Scat?"
"Yep. Try it!"
"No, not right now... but thank ya, I'll save it!" Minnie said, and put the scat in her pocket.
Suddenly, Sam took up a little figure of Sergeant Bash from the ground behind him. Tim picked up Dead Metal, Martin found Mathilda in his pocket and Kevin put his hand down in a box, and found Sir Killalot.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
"Fangirls!" Pippin and Frodo screamed.
"Ooohh! Sir Killalot!"
It was Minnie. Of course, she's a fan girl, but she squealed at the sight of Kevin's little robot.
"What? You like him?" Kevin asked (M/N: HEL-LO!).
"I love him! Pweeeeese, can't I have him???" Minnie pleaded, and looked at Kevin with puppy eyes. "Pweeeese, Kev?"
"Well, yeah... I suppose so... Here ya have!" Kevin said and threw Minnie the figure.
She took it, and immediately began to play. The others soon joined her, and at last, Minnie, Sam, Tim and Martin sat together while Glen, Kevin, Frodo and Pippin watched them.
"Robot Wars, ey? How boooring..." Glen stated.
"Naw, I think it's quite cool" Kevin exclaimed.
"What is it, anyway?" Pippin and Frodo asked in chorus.
"A TV-show" came the short reply.
"Ohh... not that I get it, but... well..." Pippin said.
Suddenly, they heard sirens, and Glen let out a sigh.
"Aww, guess the cop got to know 'bout our last robbery, guys..."
"Yeah" Kevin said. "Ey, Minnie!"
"Yeah?" came Minnie's absent answer, since she was terribly busy with playing with Sir Killalot.
"We can't stay here, ya know. The cops will find us soon enough even if we don't but at least we can try to hide. Ya know any good place?"
"Why... Do ya ask me? You're the ones who know this town!"
"I thought you lived here!"
"No! I don't! I live in Sweden!"
"Then, what are you doing here?!"
"Having a picnic!!!"
The boys stared at her. A picnic? Here? But they didn't get any time to think further about it, 'cause Minnie rushed past them, and they thought it was best to follow. They came to a blind alley, and Minnie twirled around. The guys eyed her accusingly.
"Now what?" Tim asked.
"Stop glaring at me! I couldn't know it would be a blind alley, now could I? You're the ones that ought to know this town!"
Frodo and Pippin stood next to Minnie (actually they had no other choice) and nodded to underline her words. Aaron took a step forward and put a finger at Minnie's chest.
"But how are you planning to get us out of here? We're chased by police in case ya haven't noticed!"
"Don't you dare point a finger at me, young man!" Minnie exclaimed and shoved him away.
Sam tilted his head and thought for a moment.
"But, Minnie... 'Ow did ya get us 'ere?
Minnie gave him a big grin. "Sam, I love you!" she said and hugged the surprised hobbit. "Of course, why din't I think of that?"
"Din't think of what?" Kevin asked.
Minnie just smiled and snapped her fingers.
Just seconds later the group appeared outside a closed coffee bar. They guys looked around with wide eyes. Martin slowly turned towards Minnie.
"And... exactly how... did you do... /that/?"
Minnie tilted her head with an innocent look at her face.
"Naw, just a simple snap of my fingers, that's all it takes..."
"Wow... I din't really believe in magic... until now, that is..." Glen said.
"Umm, Minnie?"
Minnie looked down at Frodo. "Yes?"
"We still have to find Merry, so better stop being proud."
"Hey, who said I was... Well, that doesn't matter, but before we go, I'll do you guys a little favour."
The boys looked at her warily. She snapped her fingers once again before grabbing Sam and tying him to her wrist as well. So she waved to the boys.
"Bye! See ya another time, maybe!"
So she and the hobbits disappeared into thin air.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
In another part of town, Minnie, Frodo, Pippin and Sam sat on a park bench.
"What did ya actually do to mah buddies?" Sam asked.
"I just erased their names out of the crime register. And at least I tried to set their minds on not doing anymore crimes... We'll prolly find out if it worked in the future. I'll visit them some other day, I think."
Pippin sat and dangled his legs and seemed to be deep down in his thoughts. So he spoke up.
"Where can Merry be? I want to see him again..."
Minnie put an arm around the young hobbits shoulders and took him closer.
"No worries, Pippin-dear. We'll find your cousin soon enough, I promise. And I'll bring you all back to the Shire too..."
Pippin leaned towards her and sighed deeply.
"Can we take a rest first? I'm exhausted..."
"Of course we can." Minnie said and settled down.
Frodo and Sam also cuddled up next to her, and soon they all were sleeping.

So there, finally finished! If you think I'm *too* lazy with updating, then it's because I'm running out of witty ideas, and so, I get stuck in the middle of the chapter! But, see!
