Disclaimer: I have to say that I do not own any thing from Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. Harry Potter is owned by the brilliant J.K. Rowling. Lord of the Rings is owned by the genius J.R.R. Tolkien. (Notice the uncanny similarity between Tolkien and Rowling how they both like to use initials. I thought that was kinda uncanny, but maybe it's just a British thing. Which I'm not.) In this I use lines from both the movies owned by New Line and from Tolkien, I just combine them. I own nothing, I'm just taking the characters for a joy ride. AN: In this chapter we learn what happened to Frodo during the big switch and how he reacts. Enjoy!

Harry and Frodo's Big Switch

Chapter 2

Frodo was warm, warmer than he had been in a long time. He slowly opened his eyes. I'm in a real bed! He thought. I must be in Rivendell. Then he looked at his shoulder, surprisingly there was no mark at all. I must have passed out and slept while the elves healed me. He sat up. What a strange place this was, there were a dozen empty beds around him. There were also strange portraits that were actually moving. All of a sudden the door opened and a lady rushed over to him. "Well Harry, its about time you woke up, your friends have been worried sick" Did she just call me Harry? Who's Harry? Why isn't she an elf? Am I in Rivendell? He wondered. He just smiled at the lady as she checked his temperature. Afterwards the lady walked out.

Frodo stood and walked over to a mirror. What he saw shocked him beyond belief. He was no longer a hobbit. Now he was a tall and skinny boy. He now had unruly black hair, instead of his brown curly hair. He also had round glasses over his emerald green eyes. What he found most peculiar about his new appearance was that on his forehead was a strange lightening bolt shaped cut. Then someone called to him:

"Harry! We were worried sick What happened?" Said a girl who had bushy brown hair. "Who are you?" Frodo asked. She gave him a look The red head boy next to her laughed. "Don't make her mad Harry, she has had a bad day." "Who is Harry?" Frodo asked getting more scared and worried by the minute. They both gave him a surprised look. "How can you forget who you are? You are Harry Potter, one of the most famous wizards ever. Hello, you are the Boy Who Lived?" The red head stated. "Oh I get it, you are suffering from amnesia. That's where you can temporarily loose your memory." The girl said. "I know nothing about this Harry Potter! My name is Frodo Baggins and I am a hobbit of the Shire. I don't know how or why, but somehow I switched bodies with this other boy Harry." After he said this, the girl gasped and gave him a look like she had seen a ghost. The boy just laughed. "Good one Harry. You would make Snuffles proud!" he said. "Ron!" the girl said. "I think he is telling the truth! Harry wouldn't play a trick like that, especially when we are concerned about him. I will prove it too." Then she looked at Frodo "What is my name?" she asked. Frodo said "I haven't the faintest clue. Where am I by the way?" Ron stopped laughing, his eyes grew wide. " You are not lying!" he stated looking very surprised. "Of course he's not" said the girl. "I am Hermione Granger and this is Ron Weasley. You are in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Welcome to Earth." She said. "We must take you to Dumbledore, maybe he will be able to set you right. Come on, lets get you released first" said Hermione.

Frodo and Ron followed to Madame Pomfrey's office, where Frodo asked if he could leave. "Yes you may go, nothing is wrong with you. Be more careful from now on." She said. Then they walked in the direction of Professor Dumbledore's office. Once they got to the gargoyle Hermione and Ron named off all the candies they could. "Chocolate Frogs" "Fizzing Whizbees" "Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans" "Lemon Drops" "Sugar Quills" "M and M's" At once the gargoyle mover and Hermione smirked at Ron. The three walked up and came to Dumbledore's office. Hermione knocked. An old wizard opened the door and Frodo almost shouted Gandalf, for the resemblance to Mithrandir was uncanny.

"Why Miss. Granger, Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, what can I do for you?" he asked smiling at them."We have something really important to tell you Professor, may we come in?" asked Hermione. "Of course" he said.

They walked in the office and sat down. Frodo thought this was the most interesting room. He looked at all the portraits who were whispering amongst themselves and looking curiously at the three. "All right then, what do you three need to tell me?" Dumbledore said, seating himself at his desk. "Well" Frodo started. "I am not Harry Potter" Dumbledore's eyes went open wide, but he didn't say anything. Frodo went on "I am Frodo Baggins a hobbit of the Shire. Somehow I switched places with Harry and now I am in his body. I have no clue how it happened. Can you return me?" Dumbledore looked shocked for a moment and was deep in thought. Finally he said "I am not sure how you switched bodies with Mr. Potter, but I do know it is possible. Also you are from a parallel universe, which will be hard to return you too. All I can tell you is to stay here and attend Hogwarts in the meantime. I believe you will find you know are a very powerful wizard. I will put a great deal of effort in finding all about sending you back. It is possible, but it will be difficult and will probably take awhile. I am sorry I can't do anything for you sooner." Frodo thought for awhile, well it might be interesting to stay and learn magic. Frodo knew though that he would miss Sam and the others. "Ok then, I will stay here" Frodo said. "Great Frodo. One thing you must do is pretend to be Harry Potter. I'm sure Hermione and Ron will help you. We don't want to worry the school and it might draw unwanted attention to you. Now tell me where you were and what was happening when you were yourself last." Dumbledore said. Frodo thought back and then shivered. The scenes flashed through his mind. He had been cut by the wraith's blade and had been hanging onto life. Just the memory of that was hard to bear. And the ring! This boy Harry was now in charge of the Ring? What would he do with it, assuming he lived through the injury. Frodo didn't wan to think about it.
