AN/ hey guys! Lamoo's back! Everybody happy? Good! Sorry I kept you all hanging for a while, but to make up for it, this chappie will be nice and long.

Reviews! Woo hoo! Luv u guys! By the way, do you people ever actually read the replies I write to your reviews? Never mind.

Paladin Dragoon: decided to put you in this one, so Loki can chop carrots or something. Hope you like it!

LOTR FREAK: my advice for this chapter, don't eat any gum… Gandalf might steal it… or not. Hehe. Well, what can I say? I'm flattered that this is your fav funny LOTR fic. Thankyou! Party. Next chappie ok with you? Might make it a pool party so Leggsie can wear Speedos. Hehe.

Holly: Me? High on sugar? Tut tut, never! Actually I wasn't, that was me normal. But I've just finished eating a whole packet of starburst lollies so I'm feeling a little hypo. Happy, VERY happy you liked Sam's little bit of mischief, it was a succuss! Yay! And yes, Lego does not wear tights, dancers wear tights and Legolas couldn't dance, ballet anyway, to save himself… don't blame him for getting angry really, do you? And his boxers, yum! Hehe, yes, I am a bit disturbed as well as hypo… bad combination. Hopefully, well, with a bit of luck and some funny ideas, this chappie should become your new favourite!

Claire: hey! Had a wonderful time on Holidays but I'm back and ready to write. Hope I didn't leave you hanging for too long, nothing is more annoying than an author who doesn't update (a bit rich coming from me) enjoy this next chappie!

Nomad: hi Nellie! Now, unless this chappie takes me a while to get up, you WILL be in NZ when you read this. Not that that's going to chance what I write really. Party should be next chapter so be prepared for lots of silliness! Had a Fab trip! Hope you did too. Enjoy this chapter!

Banx: yay! Haldir fan! You sound a lot like my sis. She is obsessed with Haldir. I have to admit, he is rather cute, ah heck, he's hot… and an elf… but I still like Leggie better. Well, don't mind me. Oh yea, how come u got to see Pirates of the Caribbean! You from the states? Lucky you, stupid Australia supposedly doesn't get it until September… *screams and breaks down in tears* you really think this is the fic for the obsessed fangirl? Well, that wasn't really the idea, but I love it! Where did Elrond come from? Ah, that's part of his mystery (in other words, I haven't a clue) and yes, he is invited to the party, I'm sorta drifting between two costume choices for him, but you WILL recognise him… well, if you don't then I'm going to be a little annoyed. And more Lego partial nudity? I think that can be arranged….

Cotume: hehe, thought you might like that bit. *Grins* but you'd better pick the elf off the floor, I need him for this chappie. Clever penguins, where can I buy one? Maybe they'll kidnap me some elves or perhaps a silly little hobbit. And no, you have not NEARLY enough sugar, sugar is good and it makes everything seem so much funnier! Hehe, enjoy!

Dark Omen: hehe, Pervy Galadirek? I think you mean Galadriel, *mutters under breath* stupid keyboard, damn dwarf imitation…. Unfortunately, we probably won't see much more of Galadriel until the party. But look up; it's going to be next chapter! I had a lovely holiday, but its great to be back writing again…

Laura/ Legolas stalker: Leggie in a towel… yes, I am disturbed, but you don't mind do you? How come you lucky pplz in anywhere but Australia get POTC?!! We have to wait 'till @#$%^&! September! Arg! How was Florida? Did you go to ORLANDO? Tee hee, I'm lame I know… the jelly fish bit didn't sound like much fun… neither does PMS, Evil PMS, we hates it!! And yes! Despite popular opinion, Rimorob IS alive! Who ever would have guessed! But yes, that dwarf is very sneaky! I suck at staring contests, and I also suck at typing stuff not looking at the puter screen. But I DO know what its like to have an annoying sis, a poo head too! But luckily she'd rather watch TV then go on the puter. Phew! Thanks for the idea about the rubbing alcohol, I didn't know actually, I've never had my face drawn on with a permanent marker… thanks for the tip tho. Oh yea, a little something for you…

*Legolas hugs Laura back and gives her a kiss. He beams when she un purpled his purple nose. He then gives her another kiss then disappears* Hope u liked that, enjoy this chappie!

Marissa03: I rock! Woo hoo! I rock (supposedly) thankies HEAPS for your review! Reviews mean everything to me! Hope you get a good laugh outta this chapter, that's the main aim.

Aelimir: what made you think Sam couldn't do something so horibible to our fellowship buddies? Well, maybe because he's a hobbit, but that's beside the point. You think Gandalf was better? That's good. He was rather annoying when he stayed in his room the whole time. I like licking stamps, but not the ones that are sticky already… You like Boromir? That's good, very good. I have to admit, I don't particularly, but he's ok. And has potential to be corrupted. Unfortunately we wont see him again until the party, to which he turns up uninvited to…party SHOULD be next chappie. But while I write that, have a laugh at this chapter.

Kiftyuthonaerantae: yay! Review! *Feeling very happy* sleeping pills… that's an idea… hehe. I can't cook either, I usually stuff up stuff like toast and I have bad luck cooking potatoes. Enjoy this chappie, cos I'm having a ball writing it!

Tegz: great to hear from you again. Happy you liked the last chapter, even though your review was a bit brief. I appreciate it none the less.

Oddwen: The dreaded please come back messages, pure evil they are! I like Leggy bashing, but I don't like hurting my fav elf. That doesn't make much sense, but maybe if I say I like to torment him but not physically injure him it might be a bit clearer. Ooh, Itemized Tax Returns, groovy! Sam is also very groovy. My kinda guy too. Except I'd be a bit afraid to eat anything he cooked again… can you blame me? I HAD WHISKERS!!! Ok, I have noticed I'm ranting a tad here so I'll stop and leave you to read the story. Have a laugh!

Achoo: no, Gandalf didn't do too much damage with the stamp licking, not that I know of anyway. Towel clad leggsies, almost as good as boxer shorts clad leggsies. Heh. Oh yea, what do you mean 'late for the next chappie?'

Inweofnargothrond: hey, guess what! I found out what those crackerjack type things we have here are called… lolly gobble bliss bombs…. Hehe, I luv that word! So cool! No candyfloss? Maybe the word I'm looking for is cotton candy, or spun sugar maybe? But yes, Avril is rather evil, as are windows that only go down halfway!! Luv the idea of your watermelon car! Also, you've never had a party whistle?! They are the best things about parties! Mind you, Legolas in a towel blows party whistles outta da water! But Sam's cooking leaves something to be desired. But I do have to point out that it is about a million times better than mine. Oh yea, just remembered something funny, my friend Rach was boiling some eggs and she burnt the bench and the saucepan… hehe. Hmm, since when has Pippin been a bird? *Shrug* maybe its just me. But surely everyone knows how thick skulled dwarves are… don't they? And in this fic, there is no such thing as over dosing on sleeping pills, the fellowship are very resilient and the pills were kinda dodgy anyway. And Aragorn is ALWAYS cute! Cept when he's smooching Arwen, that's icky…pasta? Oh dear, don't tell Sam… he don't like pasta. Who's Lauren? Now that's a stupid question if I ever heard one! Lauren is Lamoo, Lamoo is Lauren, Lamoo and Lauren are ME!! Ok, just thought I'd clarify that. The midget is my sis and you've probably gathered that. I like dolphins too, on my holiday we saw some dolphins and some whales, and my sis got sea sick, but you didn't need to know that. Wow, I really seem to be ranting now, I think I've covered everything in your review so I might stop so I still have a little bit of energy for writing this chappie!

Mr Bean: I cant thank you enough for RP-ing for me over that last little while. Also thankies for your review, but I just have to say one teensy thing…. Legolas DOES NOT WEAR TIGHTS!! THEY ARE FLIPPIN LEGGINGS!! Oh yea, who says Gimli is bitchy? Boromir! And I thought we'd learnt not to take anything he says very seriously. You want to know what I mean when I said Leggie was the meaning of good looking, which was an understatement? Well, basically what I'm saying is that I am a rabid fangirl and I am convinced that Legolas Greenleaf of Mirkwood, is the hottest thing to be ever invented! He is hotness embodied! Get the idea sort of? Well, I can't really expect you to think along the same lines as me can I? You are a guy and I might be a little scared if you suddenly agreed with me…phew, I feel so much better now. Thanks for the review anyway, hope this one gives you a bit of a laugh… but from now on, unless I decide otherwise, Legolas wears Jeans or Boardies or other normal people pants. Ok? Have a laugh at this one! Oh yea, there's a little bit I put in that I'm sure you're going to like.

LotRseer3350: Beautimus? Hmm, what a cool word! Mind if I use it? Party should be next chapter and I'm certain it will be the best one yet. Tee hee. Happy you liked the last one though. What possessed Sam to drug everyone and draw on their faces you ask? Everything! Well, mainly just because I was bored and I felt like doing some fellowship bashing, and Sam seemed like the perfect candidate to do some. Hehe. Now does everyone see why it is not smart to tick off an elf? Hehe. Well, here is an update cos I was so horrible and went on my holiday while you lot were waiting for another chapter. Enjoy it! Should have heaps of sillies!

Hex of the Unseelie: howdy Hex. You're happy! That's good! You liked your flowers? Thought you might! I'm happy too, TWO reviews since I last updated from u, Danke! Yes! Rimorob! The triumphant appearance of Rimorob! And I certainly agree that Leggie and Mr cranky Gondor pants need counselling sessions. That gives me a great idea for after the party. Thanks for that! But yes, Rimorob did get a bit bashed, but he's big enough to stand up for himself. And who doesn't love the mental image of Leggsie dearest in a towel? *Drool*

Phew, that took a while. Only the disclaimer until I can finally start writing the proper chapter!

Disclaimer: I have a big poster of my beloved elf on my wardrobe door and a Leggie action figure amongst other stuff, but sadly, the elf does not belong to me, there fore I cannot dismantle him bit by bit, tamper with him then stick him back together with gum. *Sniff*

Ok, here is chapter 12, don't forget to review at the end, going for 200 reviews (wow, 200!!) *hint hint*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Previously in 'The fellowship and the elf next door,' Rimorob made his appearance, Sam went evil, Lamoo's sister appeared and Elrond did his eyebrow thing.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Everyone in the fellowship awoke the next morning, ate breakfast and went to work. Then they came home, ate dinner, watched some TV, took a shower and went to bed. They did this, almost exactly the same boring way the rest of the week until Saturday rocked around. Tonight was the party and everyone had plenty to keep them busy. Whether it be putting the finishing touched on their costumes, preparing food for the party, vacuuming or dusting.

Aragorn rolled out of bed and smiled when he remembered he didn't have to get up and go to work. But he did want to get up. The ranger rose off the floor and dawdled over to his wardrobe. He changed into a pair of black jeans, a black jumper and a long black coat. He topped his ensemble off with a water pistol or two tucked into his belt and a pair of sunglasses. Grinning at his reflection in the mirror, Neo, aka Aragorn set off to find Trinity, aka Legolas.

The elf was snoozing peacefully in his room, snoring slightly. A loud Bang on the door woke him abruptly. Grumbling, Legolas pulled his dressing gown over his PJs and went to see who was bothering him at this unearthly hour of the morning… eight o'clock! *Shudder*

"Who's there?" Legolas yelled.

"Trinity, can you hear me?" Aragorn's voice came through the door. "It's Neo, Trinity, can you hear me?"

Legolas rolled his eyes and opened the door.

"Sorry Neo, Trinity is not here right now, please leave a message after the beep, beep." Legolas said sarcastically.

Aragorn sighed and put away his water pistol. "I was hoping you'd want to play Matrix with me." He said sadly. "But it looks like you don't."

"Who said I didn't?" replied the elf.

Legolas grinned and told Aragorn to wait outside while he changed.

The elf looked around cautiously to make sure no one was watching before he got rid of his PJs and changed into his 'Trinity' outfit. Wincing a little, the elf managed to do up the zipper at the front of his ensemble. Donning black boots and another black coat the elf grabbed his own weapons and his sunnies.

He threw open the door and pointed his water pistol squarely at Neo's forehead. "Let's go." Legolas said.

Aragorn nodded and pulled out one water pistol, leaving the other one tucked into his pants in case the other one ran out. "Where do we go?" he asked.

"You're the one, you tell me!" Legolas replied. "Hey, I just noticed Neo is an anagram of one, isn't that cool?"

"Uh, I guess." Aragorn remarked. "Ok, let's go and see what the agents are up to."

"Agents?"

"Merry and Pippin?"

"Ah,"

"Well, first we have to go down stairs," Aragorn said. He and Legolas strode over to the top landing and sat on the top stair. "And what other way to go down!?"

"You go first Neo, but be careful, Smith could be around any corner."

"I will Trinity, Don't worry." Neo said, preparing to bounce down the stairs on his backside. "I love you"

*Tape abruptly stops…* ok, that was weird. Never mind, on with the story.

Legolas raised an eyebrow. "Let's just pretend that didn't happen." He said. Putting on his 'trinity' voice, he spoke again. "Go Neo. It's a long way, be careful,"

Aragorn took a deep breath and bounced the one step to the bottom. "Trinity! It's ok, come on!" he practically yelled.

Legolas nodded and clenched his eyes shut. He too bumped one step downwards. Hesitantly, the elf opened his eyes and looked around. "Phew, we made it." He said.

Aragorn didn't reply, but Neo nodded to Trinity. Trinity nodded back and both elf and ranger crawled forwards a little bit then rolled out of the room secret agent style.

*Mission impossible music suddenly starts to play. *

"Hey, wrong music!" exclaimed Trinity.

*music changes to the lobby scene music…*

Trinity and Neo shrugged then pulled out their water pistols, which had been tucked into their pants while they bumped down the stair. The two matrix character wannabes then snuck out into the kitchen and made a splendid show and squirting Merry and Pippin before running for their lives, or in Aragorn's case, jumping off the couch and pretending to fly, Neo style. Legolas grabbed a wooden spoon and pretended that it was the handlebars of his motorbike, speeding away down the highway, or what most people would call, the living room.

Agents Meriadoc and Peregrine narrowed their eyes and raced after Trinity and Neo.

As Trinity hurried past, she grabbed the receiver of the phone and made a big show of getting out of the Matrix.

Merry and Pippin caught Aragorn, with a little help from Gimli who had come storming downstairs yelling obscene things at the elf and the ranger that were making a racket fighting off agents. Gimli crash tackled Aragorn to the ground and Legolas/Trinity made a big show of Neo dying.

"Ok, game's over." Gimli yelled crossly.

Merry and Pippin laughed and Pippin suggested it was about time for breakfast.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"I need to finish my mermaid costume today" remarked Gandalf, sitting down at the kitchen table.

"My costume's not done yet either," said Merry.

"Done mine," said Legolas. He was disappointed he and Aragorn had had to stop playing the Matrix, but other than that, he was in a pretty good mood.

"Finished mine yesterday," said Aragorn. "But I have to put some chlorine in the pool."

"I didn't know we had a pool," remarked Gimli as he munched into his cereal, which so happened to be a bowl of rocks.

"We do apparently," replied Legolas. He had partly unzipped the front of his very tight Trinity outfit so he was feeling a whole lot better now that the shinny vinyl wasn't clinging to him, restricting his movements. "I went for a swim yesterday, water was a bit cold."

"We have a pool? Where?" asked Frodo.

This time Aragorn spoke. "You know how there's that huge clump of trees and overgrown stuff over that pond near the washing line?" he said.

"I didn't know we had a washing line," pondered Pippin.

"You wouldn't." retorted Legolas.

Pippin scowled. "You were saying Aragorn?"

Aragorn smiled and continued. "Well, the pond is actually a swimming pool."

The fellowship gaped open mouthed, all bar Legolas who didn't seem to care.

"The pond is green and muddy and full of bugs!" exclaimed Merry.

Aragorn grinned triumphantly. "Not anymore!" he began. "I cleaned it up last weekend cos summers coming."

"How did you manage to clean a pool in a week?"

Aragorn shrugged. "Dunno," he said. "I reckon Lamoo had something to do with it. The point is, we have a pool, we can swim in it,"

"I can't swim." Said Sam sadly.

""Not my problem, we'll get you some water wingies or something." Replied the ranger with a shrug. "Seeing as I've finished my breakfast, I may as well go and dump massive amounts of chemicals into the water now." With that Aragorn strode outside, however, not before he raced back to his room and got rid of his Neo costume.

Frodo looked at his watch and raised his eyebrows. "We've got heaps to do today, Legolas, you could go and sweep the veranda and the terrace outside."

Legolas nodded and went to change. Once he was changed he went and fetched the broom and began to sweep away all the leaves and dust that had settled on the ground.

"Who still needs to finish their costumes?" Frodo asked. Merry, Gandalf and Gimli raised their hands. "Ok, you guys go and do that. Pippin and Sam, could you check we have all the stuff in the fridge? We should start preparing some of it now, it is about 10 0'clock."

Pippin and Sam nodded and went over to the fridge. There was a list stuck to it with a green magnet. Pippin pulled the sheet of paper off the fridge and began to read out the names of items while Sam went through the contents of the fridge and pantry, checking for each item on the list.

"What are you planning to do?" asked Sam as he found the jar of pickled onions Pippin asked for.

"I'm going to vacuum the carpet." Frodo replied. Pippin nodded and read out another item on the list for Sam to find.

Frodo made his way down the hall, looking for the vacuum cleaner. When he found it, he plugged it in and began to suck up the dust along the hallway. As he passed Gandalf's bedroom door, he vacuumed the blue smoke that was puffing out from under the door. Suddenly, the vacuum cleaner started to levitate. 'What the?' thought Frodo, but then he decided Vacuuming with a floating Hoover was a whole lot easier than pulling it along the ground. So, using the hose, he continued to suck up dirt and dust, while the vacuum cleaner floated along behind him. Frodo was hurrying along quite quickly now, he wanted to finish vacuuming so he could go and polish the insides of the garbage cans. Reaching the end of the living room, which he was now cleaning, the hobbit came to an abrupt halt. The vacuum cleaner was not expecting this so it cruised along at high speed and collided with the back of Frodo's head.

"Stupid Vacuum cleaner!" yelled the hobbit, bashing the thing with cushion off the lounge.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The day started to wear on. The party guests were supposed to be arriving at about four that afternoon so when 2pm rocked around, the fellowship found they still had a lot to do.

All costumes were finished, Gimli's was still a mystery to the fellowship, all except Legolas, who had a sneaking suspicion that whatever Gimli was dressing up as was gong to be a major shock to the system.

Pippin was certain that his fairy costume was going to be a major hit, especially with the ladies.

Legolas's mate Mel, also know to everyone else as Paladin Dragoon was supposed to be arriving early, to help set up. Her muses CF and Loki were also supposed to be coming.

The doorbell rang and Aragorn rushed to answer it, he always liked answering the door, that was if Haldir was not the one waiting to be let in. Mel was standing on the porch wearing her costume, a black shirt with a roaring white tiger on it, black pants, combat boots, a camo vest, and a black head sash. She was also wearing a supply belt in black to match the machine gun she was holding. Her two muses were standing behind her. Aragorn had met Mel before, but never Loki or CF.

To him, CF looked like a dragon, but that could have been because she was. CF was wearing a light blue silk cape with a bit of fur trimming, held in place with a brooch shaped like a gold disk. She was also wearing a light blue wizard hat to match her cape. Sapphires decorated the front of the hat and there was a sash of the same material fastened around CF's waist. It had trimming, but not fur. There were very pretty embroidered designs in silver on the sash and she was holding a silver wand with a sapphire star at the end.

"Ooh, I like your costumes." Aragorn said.

"What about mine?" asked Loki, a bit annoyed that Aragorn had not commented yet about how fabulous his costume was. Loki was dressed as an archangel, with wings and all. REAL wings! He was in platinum, medieval style armour, pure white in colour, minus a helmet (that may have looked a little daggy). There was a splendid sword buckled at Loki's waist, a gold, jewel encrusted hilt visible in a gold scabbard.

"Wow, nice armour!" remarked Aragorn.

Loki beamed.

"You planning on coming in any time now?" asked Aragorn.

"Oh, sorry. Sure." Replied Mel. Aragorn opened the door wide and Mel, CF and Loki entered the house.

Legolas and most of the others were in the kitchen, preparing the food. Gandalf was in his room, refusing to come out until the party, should anyone catch a glimpse of his costume before he chose to reveal it. Pippin had been checking his list and he'd discovered that there was no ketchup. So he had borrowed Frodo's car, which had miraculously decided to work again, and drove to the store to pick up some ketchup and other things.

Aragorn led Mel, CF and Loki into the kitchen. Loki headed straight to the open fridge, there was a jar of peppers just visible behind the prawns that Gimli was planning to cook on the BBQ, but Loki had no trouble finding it.

"Ooh! Peppers!" he said delightedly.

Legolas grinned. "They're all yours. Got them especially for you. No one here likes em." He said. Noticing Mel and CF were just standing around while Loki was eating his peppers, Legolas put both of them to work, telling both to help Aragorn put up streamers and balloons and, not to be forgotten, the fairy lights for outside.

So while Merry helped Legolas and Sam prepare the food, CF, Mel and Aragorn went off to put up decorations.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

About an hour and a half later, the decorations were up, most of the food was either ready to be eaten when the guests arrived, put in bowls on the table outside, or waiting in the fridge to be cooked.

Just as Merry heading upstairs to change into his costume, the doorbell rang. Merry answered it and two people were standing on the porch. Tegz, the magician for the night and Saturn Dragon, the DJ. Tegz was dressed in a suit with a purple cape and a top hat. And not to forget a red bow tie. She was holding a large bag in one hand her magic wand in the other. Saturn Dragon was dressed as a pikachu in a large foam number, tail and all. Merry could see two cars parked in the driveway. One was a van and said 'Saturndragon DJs' on the side. The other car was an old beetle, pink, and had 'Tegz, the marvellous magician on the side'.

"Hi, I'm Saturn dragon, I'm the DJ." Saturn Dragon said, beaming proudly. "And this is the marvellous Tegz, the magical magician."

Tegz waved. Merry nodded and let both Tegz and Saturn dragon into the house. "Legolas!" he yelled. "Magician and the DJ are here!"

"Why are you telling me?" came the reply.

"No idea," Merry said, as Legolas emerged from his bedroom, halfway through getting dressed. He was wearing white tights and no shirt. Tegz found herself drooling.

Legolas seemed perfectly comfortable and he showed Saturn dragon and Tegz where they could set up their stuff.

"Anything in particular you want me to play?" enquired Saturn dragon. "Jlo? Avril? Britney Spears?"

Legolas cringed. "Anything BUT those three, or classical. Gandalf might decide to dance. No boy bands either." He said. "How about some old stuff? Got any karaoke tracks? How about Meatloaf? Or Queen?"

Saturn Dragon nodded. "Yea, I've got that stuff. Anything else?"

"Surprise me." Legolas said. He then turned and went back to getting dressed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Mel, Loki and CF were all in the lounge room with Frodo and Sam. Frodo was in his Cleopatra costume. He had straightened his hair and put on masses of eyeliner. He was wearing a long, white, sleeveless dress and a Cleopatra headdress that was made out of gold cardboard among other things. Sam had somehow managed to get a hold of a large amount of purple foam and he'd made a splendid Jellybean costume out of it.

Pippin and Aragorn emerged a few minutes later. Aragorn looked like a right royal goose, except for the fact he was a chicken. He was covered in feathers, yellow ones, from head to toe and he had orange bird feet and a beak as well as a crest on the top of his head made out of a rubber glove. Pippin was looking very pretty in a pink tutu type dress with matching wings with lots of glitter. He has a pretty tiara on his curly head and was holding a fairy wand that was made out of a chopstick, a bit of cardboard and even more glitter.

"Aw man!" Pippin exclaimed. "CF's wand is so much better than mine."

"I like your wand, its very sparkly," replied CF, trying to make Pippin feel better.

Pippin beamed and gave CF a thankyou hug.

Legolas then appeared in the doorway looking very flash in his teabag ensemble. Every female in the room found themselves staring at the elf, especially his legs… yum, and Legolas was beaming.

The doorbell rang and Legolas went to see who it was. One of the first guests no doubt. But, much to the elf's dismay, it wasn't. Lamoo was standing on the porch with her little sister. Lamoo looked very odd in a squishy, green costume. Legolas wasn't sure whether she was supposed to be a slug or a gherkin. Ainsley was in a playboy bunny costume, complete with fishnet stockings. Lamoo and her minor didn't even wait to be invited in, they barged past the elf, said hi to Mel, CF and Loki, and then set about eating the chips that were dumped in bowls on the dining room table.

Gandalf emerged out of his bedroom and went to show off his costume. Lamoo wrinkled her nose as she caught a glimpse of Gandalf's mermaid costume. He was wearing a pink bikini top, with oranges stuffed inside, a mermaid tail made out of green spangly material, a necklace of shells and his hair and beard had flowers and shells in it. A good look for a woman, but certainly not for a wrinkly old wizard. However, all the fellowship applauded and Gandalf took a bow. He then went to take a step but suddenly remembered he didn't put holes for his feet when he was making his tail. The wizard toppled over with a grunt and it took all four hobbits to lift him back on his feet. Merry had arrived a few seconds earlier, decked out in his groovy little cowboy costume. Leather chaps, a waistcoat and a checked shirt, complete with cowboy hat, sheriff's badge and toy cap guns in a holster made Merry look very good indeed.

Now it was Gimli's turn to appear. He stepped out into view and Legolas promptly fainted.

AN/ sorry, that wasn't as long as I thought it'd be. I could have continued, but I thought I should leave a little bit of a cliffy. Not a very good one, but that seemed like a god place to end this chappie. Hope it made up for no updates in the past while.

Love Lamoo.

Don't forget to review; next chapter WILL be up soon!

Oh yes, one more thing. All those coming to the party could you please tell me what your costume is again, either in your next review or you can email me at deckiedog@hotmail.com make the email subject fanfic party.

thanks
