So do they get any further in the chapter?

Aragorn was walking and was getting bored, "So.... Where are we going?"

"Mordor," Gandalf said, making it sound eerie and scary.

"Gandalf you make that sound so eerie and scary," Merry said.

"That's because it is little one."

"It's the dark and evil place Aragorn," Legolas said as he looked at Aragorn.

"Oh okay."

Pippen starts to skip around.

Merry skips too singing, "Lalalalalala," he comes up next to Pip and says, "Hi Pip."

"We there yet?" Pip asked.

"No," Gandalf told them.

"We there now?" Frodo started in too.

"No." Gandalf said starting to get a bit upset.

"*When* are we going to get there?"

"In a long time," Gandalf told them.

"We there yet?" This time it was Boromir.

"NO!" Gandalf said.

"Fine! No need to get upset," Boromir said.

"Hey Gandalf?" Aragorn asked.

"No we aren't there yet! And I don't know how long it will talk!!"

Aragorn just looked at him wide eyed, "No actually I was going to ask..." There is a long pause, "Are we there yet?"

Gandalf sighs and all the 'little ones' started to roll around on the ground laughing.

After laughing so much Pip looked at Boromir and asked, "What's that?" he said while pointing to the horn of Gondor.

"That is a horn."

"Ohhh!" Pip said.

"What's it sound like?" Sam asked.

Boromir puts it to his lips and lightly blows into it as not to make too much noise.

"That's not very loud," Pip pointed out. "How would they hear you all the way across the field if they needed to?"

"It depends on how loud I want to make it."

"How loud can it sound?"

"I dare not to make it loud, for it is to be only used in time of great need and help."

"Oh," Sam said sadly.

"Awwwww. Please?" Pip asked.

"No can do Pippen, it would be as though I am asking for help when I do not need it," the little ones looked a little confused. "People will think that I need help and when they see that I don't need it, the time that I do need the help they will not believe me. Understand little ones?" They nodded. "Maybe one day you will be able to hear it."

Gandalf turns around and smiles wickedly, "I am almost positive that they will."

Boromir went wide-eyed.

Sam asked, "Can you blow it softly again then?"

TO BE CONTINUED...

What does Gandalf know? How does Gandalf know it? Will Boromir play the horn again for Sam?! All this and more next time on "Lord of the Rings: The RPG way"!!!
