Chapter 2

Theresa and Bryan walked over to Saruman's fortress.

Bryan sighed, "I don't know why it takes them so long to find this place."

Bryan and Theresa looked up at the neon signs the say "Saruman lives here". They shrugged and walk inside. Bryan and Theresa found a staircase and walked up into the tower. Saruman was playing chess with himself. How sad.

He looked up from his game, "Who are you?"

Theresa sat down across from Saruman, "I'm Theresa and this is Bryan. I'm the smart one."

"Hey!" Bryan shouted.

"What do you want?" Saruman asked.

Theresa drummed her finger together evily, "World domination would be nice, but for now, we'd like to join your alliance."

"I'm not interested," he replied.

Theresa sighed, "Fine!"

She stood up, "But before I go."

She moved the queen next to Saruman's king, "Checkmate!"

Saruman stared, bewildered, at the chessboard.

"We'll take our business elsewhere," she replied.

She walked towards the door.

"You're gonna just go like that?" Bryan asked Theresa.

"3-2-1," Theresa counted.

"Wait," Saruman stopped them.

Theresa grinned and turned, "Yes, Lord Saruman?"

"What exactly do you have in mind?" Saruman asked.

"What is this junk?!" Julian asked, looking at the bowl.

"I made that junk!" Gimli grumbled.

"It's great, Gimli!" Julian exclaimed, stuffing food into his mouth. "Wow! How'd you make it? I mean, it's awesome!!!"

"I'm hungry too!" yelled James.

"You're the Ring," Julian said. "Make your own meal."

"How?" James asked.

"Visualize it," Julian said.

James closed his eyes in concentration. Food on a plate appeared.

"Oh great!" James exclaimed. "Holographic meatloaf!"

He took a conveniently placed fork and dug it into the hologram.

"Hey that's not bad!" James grinned.

Legolas turned to see Tracy who wasn't talking. Weird. (A/N- I am very talkative.)

He walked over and sat next to her, "Are you all right?"

"Do you realize that if we don't get Theresa and Bryan back to the good side, we can't go home?" she asked.

Everyone stopped. Julian's mouth dropped open, and his dinner fell from his grip and into the fire, putting it out. Everyone glared at him.

"How do you know?" Legolas asked.

"It's always like that in the movies," Tracy replied.

"The what?" Pippin asked.

"Never mind," Tracy said.

"So if we don't get along we can't go home?" Julian asked.

"I'm afraid so," Tracy replied sadly.

Julian glared at James on the Ring, "It's all your fault!"

"No it's not!" James yelled. "It's your fault!"

"It's your fault!' Julian yelled back.'

"Your fault!" James argued.

"Your fault!"

"Your fault!"

"Your fault!"

"Your fault!"

"Cut it out!" Tracy screamed.

Julian and James shut up. Tracy sighed sadly and turned away from the rest of the group.

"Now you did it," James mumbled.

"You did it!" Julian yelled.

"You!" James shouted.

"You!"

"You!"
