~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a chilly Friday in mid-January, and my parents had left earlier that afternoon for a much needed vacation to sunny California. They really didn't want to bring me along, so I was left to fend for myself. Of course, since the parental units weren't there, my four best friends were over and planned on staying until my parents got back about two weeks from now.
So there we were, eating ice cream and watching the Fellowship of the Ring (Extended Version) celebrating the fact that midterms were over. All was calm and peaceful, except for the fact that one of my friends (Leigh) was on extreme sugar high and babbling incoherently about Elrond's eyebrows. Then again, that was fairly calm for her.
"Hey, Kati?"
I glanced over at my friend, London. "What?"
"I was wondering… Do they llamas in Middle Earth? 'Cause then they could be Elvish Llamas!"
London's older sister, Calais, rolled her eyes. "Sister, dear. I highly doubt they have llamas running around in the middle of Mordor or anything."
London glared. "But they've got horses. Why can't they have llamas?"
"Because I highly doubt that Tolkien had a llama obsession like you do," Lynette put in, an amused look on her face.
"Oh."
At that same exact moment, all the lights went out in the house, causing us all to scream. Then, as suddenly as they had gone out, the lights went back on with a flash of neon pink light. Except now we weren't the only ones in the room. In fact, there were nine people standing in my living room pointing an assortment of weapons at us.
As we all sat there staring, only Lynette had the good sense to pause the movie so we didn't miss anything important (even though we'd seen in 16 times).
"Dude. We are not armed here. You can put the pointy things away," London said, eyeing the sword that was pointed between her eyes rather apprehensively.
When the people made no move to put the weapons away, the old man sighed. "You may sheathe your weapons. The ladies do not lie to us."
As soon as all traces of weaponry were gone, I crossed my arms and glared at the people from my spot on the couch. "Okay. Explain why the hell you're in MY house."
"We do not know, my lady."
I rolled my eyes. "Look. If you don't know how the heck you got into my house at 10 o'clock at night, you've got problems. I highly doubt all nine of you guys were sleepwalking."
That was when Leigh put her usually non-existent observational skills to use. "Kati. Calm down for a moment. Tell me what you see," she hissed.
"Uh… An old guy in a gray dress, two greasy men, four midget dudes, another midget dude with a horrid beard, and a guy whose got pointy ears and hair blonder than mine."
Leigh nodded and the other girls stared at us, unsure about what we were discussing. That's when it dawned on me.
"Holy Elvish Llamas! It's the Fellowship of the Ring!"
This information hit the other girls like a brick and they all sat there gaping at the Fellowship, who hearing what I had shrieked, had drawn their weapons once more.
"How do you know of our quest. It is supposedly secret?" demanded the shorter, yet stockier of the two men.
"Well, Boromir of Gondor." Calais smirked as she watched the man's face contort. "Practically everyone in this world knows of your quest. It was all written into a book."
"Do you have these books?" an eager voice asked.
"Yeah. We all do." Calais frowned at the hobbit. "No Pippin, you can't read 'em. You'll know about your futures and that might not be pretty. Could end your world and ours as we know it."
"So. Where are you on your quest?" Aubrey asked curiously.
"We just left Rivendell a few days ago," Gandalf informed them. "If you could inform us of our whereabouts and introduce yourselves, you may make some things a bit clearer."
"You are in Oakridge, Pennsylvania which is in the country of the United States of America," I told them. "I'm Kati Alton, the pink haired girl is Aubrey Galloway. The two redheads are Calais and London Brody, Leigh Turner is the brunette, and Lynette or Lyn Jones is the one with bright red hair. We're all fifteen, except for Calais who's sixteen."
Gandalf frowned, his many wrinkles increasing. "I have never heard of your country before."
"Uh… Maybe someone who doesn't like you sent you across time and into another world?" suggested London. "Like Saruman."
"Yes, that is possible. Saruman is powerful enough to do something like this, and his treachery runs deep."
Kati sighed. "I suppose you guys can stay here. My parents won't be home for two weeks and we can't exactly turn you loose in our world. It's, uh, quite a bit different than your world."
"Why is my image on this box-like object?" Legolas questioned, staring at the TV, which Lyn had paused a few minutes ago.
Lyn quickly turned the TV off and shrugged. "No reason. Well, there is a reason, but it would take to much time to explain and we'd risk screwing up your world and ours."
"What's this?" asked Aragorn as Legolas and Gimli joined him to peer at the new devise.
"Oh, that's my laptop computer," London explained. "I brought it over with me so I could finish reading something…"
Aubrey frowned and whispered, "London? Weren't you reading a Slash fic starring Aragorn and Legolas?"
London's eyes got as big as saucers and she sprinted across the living room and grabbed the computer from the three. "You do not, I repeat, do NOT touch the computer or read anything on there. Otherwise you will be emotionally scarred for life!"
Legolas nodded. "But could you explain this 'Slash' thing and why it pertains to Aragorn and I?"
Leigh, who had been listening to the whole conversation, grinned. "A Slash fic is a story about a gay, or, uh, homosexual couple. The two names listed are the two involved in the relationship."
Aragorn and Legolas stared at each other and began to slowly back away. Leigh cackled insanely.
"You think you two being coupled together is awful? Picture this. Legolas and Gimli."

AN: I know it's probably not very amusing right now. But hopefully it'll get better. I also need a beta-reader, if anyone's willing. Thanks and please R/R
