Quietly, he slid out from underneath Lotho's bed. He knew he just
could not climb out the window, not with Lotho right there and sleeping
almost peacefully. Suddenly, an idea hit him. He would talk to Lotho
about his stealing, except Lotho would be sleeping! However, he could not
just talk, he needed a cover. 'That's it!' he thought, 'I'll pretend to be
Superhobbit, like from the story!' He got back under the bed with the
liverwurst sandwich just to try to see if it would work.
"Lotho Sackville-Baggins!" Pippin began, trying to remember the superhero's voice, since he had not heard it in a while.
"Ummm," Lotho mumbled, turning over in his sleep.
"Lotho Sackville-Baggins, have you been stealing?" Pippin said, trying to stifle a laugh.
"What? Who is this, and why are you talking to me?" Lotho said, although it looked as if he were just talking in his sleep, because his eyes were closed and he was not really 'with it'.
"This is Superhobbit, and I'm talking to you about your habit of stealing."
"What stealing, I-I've n-n-never st-t-olen a-anything in m-my lif-fe." Lotho said, still in his sleep.
"You know of what I speak, Lotho Sackville-Baggins!" Pippin said, more commanding, "the brooch, that young man's sweets, the money, and that apple that never fell off one of your own trees! Along with several other items, I don't doubt."
"H-how d-do y-you kn-now th-that?" Lotho asked, now utterly confused, and starting to be a little scared.
"I've been watching you, Lotho, and I fight crime, so figure it out, you thief!" he said with a little more force, whilst still under the bed.
"I-I'm s-so s-sorry, S-s-superhobbit, I h-have, and I-I'm really s- sorry!" Lotho said. He was starting to get upset and out of bed. All of a sudden, he sprang from his bed, and ran down the hall, screaming.
"MOMMY, MOMMY, DADDY, I STEAL, I'M A BAD HOBBIT, AND SUPERHOBBIT IS GOING TO COME AND TAKE ME TO BAD HOBBIT JAIL!! WWWWAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! I STOLE FROM BILBO, MERRY, SAM, AND EVEN FROM YOU, DADDY, BUT I KNOW I WAS WRONG IN DOING SO, WAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"What on earth?" Lobelia cried aloud as she hugged her sobbing child.
"No more sweets for you, Lotho Sackville-Baggins, not until you apologize to the hobbits you have wronged." Otho said, very disappointed in his son.
While all this was going on, Pippin, or Superhobbit, climbed on the chair with all the stolen items, and went out the window, laughing all the way. Moreover, when he met Merry outside, he was still laughing.
After being punished, Lotho went back to bed. In addition, on the pillow on his bed, he found a note. It read: Dear Lotho,
Thank you for admitting your crime. Let us just say you
made the world have one less bad hobbit. This is one last bad
hobbit for Superhobbit to take care of. Thank you.
Your Friend,
Superhobbit (Well, almost)
He never found out what this meant. He was still puzzled, most by the signature, even in old age. In addition, there was not anymore stealing, at least from Lotho, in Hobbiton ever again.
The End!
