Chapter 7

A/N: Arg! I had this spiral all summer and she gives it back after a week! *cries* Now, which idea should I use? I guess whichever goes with whatever I write!

A/N2: Oh yeah, Christy, that made a lot of sense! *scoffs* Ok, well, I too have nothing to say. My parents are fighting again downstairs so I'll be here a while. *crawls into hole and dies* Oh, and I did pretty crappy at my show. I'm very mad at myself right now.

Disclaimer:

Haldir: *flexes muscles*

Legolas: *rips off tunic and flexes*

Haldir: *glares and does the same*

Me: *walks in room* Not that I'm not enjoying this but, what are you two doing?

Legolas: Haldir says he has bigger muscles than me.

Haldir: And I do. *smirks*

Me: …

Legolas: Nu-uh!

Haldir: Yep.

Legolas: I'm going to hit you with my purse!

Haldir: I'd like to see you try!

Me: OK, well, while they're off hitting each other….Christy and I own nothing. Although, maybe with a little bribery I can get Haldir…

I finally woke up around 10:30 and got dressed. I dragged myself to the cafeteria to grab something to eat and see if Merry was there. He was eating with the 3 other hobbits. Gandalf was there too, sitting at the next table, hiccupping drunkenly.

"…And Vanessa won't even give me the time of day!" Gandalf sobbed to the hobbits, who were too busy eating to listen.

"Morning," I greeted everyone as I sat on Merry's lap.

"Hi," the guys said before turning back to breakfast, Merry pausing long enough to give me a kiss.

I ate my cinnamon roll without trying to start a conversation because I knew I wouldn't have gotten an answer, with the possible exception of the drunken Isitari. After I finished I went in search of the others, leaving the hobbits to their food.

"What's going on?" I asked Vanessa as I sat on a lawn chair near her. Aragorn and Alex were standing on the deck facing each other, holding swords.

"Aragorn wanted to spar, but Boromir still has a hangover, so Alex volunteered to help him," she answered.

"This ought to be good," I muttered.

"Are you sure you know how to use that?" Aragorn asked Alex.

"Sure. The pointy end goes in the other man," Alex replied. (OK, disclaimer time! That exchange comes from The Mask of Zorro. All done) "Well, not in this case, huh?"

"Oh, Valar," Aragorn muttered. "I'll have to teach you the basics before we can begin."

                                    ***

After several hours of teaching Alex, Aragorn decided it was time for a break. He and Vanessa went below deck, leaving me with Alex.

"Having fun?" I asked sarcastically as he swung the sword around.

"I guess having these psychos around isn't too bad," I retorted.

"Shut up!" I slapped him playfully.

"Hey! I've got a sword! Don't mess with me!" he joked, turning to face me.

"Hey! I happen to like my legs!" I yelled at him as he lost his balance, causing him to fall forward, still holding the sword which narrowly missed my leg.

"Geez! And I thought I was a klutz!" Kitty remarked helping Alex up as I grabbed the sword. She had come on deck moments before, in time to see Alex's miracular balance.

"Is this Aragorn's sword?" I asked, picking it up.

"Yeah, I think so," Alex remarked.

"Good. You're not to touch it ever again!" I screamed and walked off to give the sword back to Aragorn.

"Good thing she's not a mother," Kitty muttered to Alex who nodded.

When lunchtime rolled around we all met in the cafeteria (including Boromir who must have gotten tired of sleeping in Nessa's bed or something) to eat. Thanks to the hobbits, we had a small banquet going.

Suddenly, Elrond walked into the cafeteria.

"Why are you not on your quest?!" he demanded.

"Well, if you're so concerned, why don't you do it, mate?" Legolas asked, jokingly. Elrond did his little eyebrow thing at him. "OK, sorry!"

Slowly, Kitty stood up from the table, as if in a trance, walking towards Elrond. *Glomp*

"OMG! Kitty! I can't believe you did that!" Courtney exclaimed as Kitty sat back down again.

"What?" she asked, bewildered. "What happened? What did I do?"

"You just glomped Elrond!" Vanessa yelled, drawing some stares from the rest of the cafeteria.

"What?! I did what?!" Kitty shrieked, drawing more stares.

"You glomped Lord Elrond," I reiterated, helping Elrond up. His robes were rumpled and his hair was splayed out like a huge afro.

"OK, new quest. You are to keep her (he pointed to Kitty) away from me and all other elves in Middle Earth!" Elrond commanded and walked quickly, as if trying not to run, from the caf.

Kitty looked around and giggled. "Remember to glomp your friendly neighborhood Elrond!" Everyone just rolled their eyes.

A/N: The whole "Glomped Elrond" thing was Kitty's idea. Kitty realized that no one glomps Elrond, so she's been saying to glomp your friendly neighborhood Elrond. Have fun but not too much fun, Nessie! No using that recipe! Hehehe.

A/N2: But-but-but…I LUB MY RECIPE! Humph, she never lets me have any fun with the elves. *pouts* Oh well, at least I have my HNSRWANB! Anyway, if you're reading this, PLEASE REVIEW! It seems that no one has been reviewing lately and since that hurts my feelings and Aiden's we don't want to update. So review and get mas chapters!

Oh, Christy and I are having a bit of an argument about Haldir's hair color. I, Vanessa, say his hair is a silvery blond. But Christy says it's a golden blond. So tell us what you think even thought it's a silvery blond. Humor us.
