However I do own the difference in personalities and names of the changes in characters though Lulu_Shinigami and Youko_Demon own the two nicknames, Azza and Bozza, which will be in later chapters.

Chapter 5 – Keep it secret, Keep it safe!
Upon walking inside the small hobbitty house, careful to avoid hitting her head, Gynx's gaze fell upon the golden ring that laid upon the ground.
The air grew thin, as firstly she poked the ring with Malik, running like an idiot when it moved, secondly re-composing herself and finally, slowly bending down to pick up the harmless looking object. However as is the norm with mysterious pieces of jewellery, a dark cloud came over her mind… well darker than usual.
'Surely not,' she thought, 'please let it not be.'
With the ring almost in her grasp a blinding pain blared across her temple and the great eye appeared in her mind. This was no mere daydream in lala Land where many unspeakable things took place; it was an invasion by the greatest evil in Middle Earth…Sauronica.
The eye reeked of malevolence, deception and desire (all things that she herself is like when she thinks of a certain Bishi) and it called for the old (Gynx: IM NOT THAT OLD!!! Lys: You're thousands of years old, deal with it.) witch to take the ring in her fingers, so that she may be corrupted by it.
***
The hunched (insert topsy turvey theme here) figure of Gynx stared into the fire as she took a puff on her pipe, but this time there would be no tricks, no spectacular displays of power (damn I must be depressed… did some-one steal her staff, Maliky?). No, her mind was far too heavy to be enjoying life and games at the moment.
For, Gynx the Great was contemplating the future and the past, "Riddles in the dark."
The witch's reverie was unbroken by a panicked voice yelling outside, "FIRE, WAR, THE EVIL DUDES ARE COMING, oh and Belinda, Belinda where for art thou?!"
"My Precious… Precious," Gynx muttered, in an insane type tone remembering… something.
Frolo entered the large (to her that is… gee wiz it's a Match Box House for pete Sake) house and bent down and picked up the ring without a second hesitation (yoink…MINE). "She's gone, hasn't she? She talked for so long about leaving…I didn't think she'd really do it…Gynx?"
Gynx's dazed gaze fell upon the ring and finally she turned to Frolo, really seeing the hobbit. "Belinda's ring…hmm…she's gone to stay with the elves. She's left you Bag End… Fruit-Loop."
Holding out an envelope, she motioned for Frolo to put the ring inside, to which the hobbit complied.
"Along with all her possession. The Ring, it's yours now."
Upon sealing the envelope with a wax stamp she handed it to Frolo.
"Put it somewhere out of sight."
"Where are you going?"
"Like it's any of your business but… there are some things I must see to," said Gynx while gathering her hat and Malik (Maliky!!!).
"What things?" inquired the naïve Frolo.
"Questions and other things. Questions that need answering."
"You've only just arrived. I don't understand."
Gynx halted and turned to her dear little friend, "Neither do I, but then again when have I ever."
Frolo didn't doubt this statement at all, for one, the Gynx she knew never looked this worried, nor would she ever admit to not knowing all, well maybe.
"Keep it secret, keep it safe, but not in any place obvious and try not to lose it," said Gynx who exited the house, the hobbit making no effort to stop her, why would she risk her life follow an insane person who could blast her to kingdom-kong.
ALYSSA: Yay, it's done. Done done done. Well just that chapter…and there are so many more. There are like Forty chapters for the Fellowship, Fifty for the Two Towers and who knows how many for the Return of the King. It's going to be over one hundred chapters easily, and given an average of a thousand words per chapter, well you do the math.
Well make sure to hit that little button down there and review me cause I really, really like reviews.
