"Hey Stinker! Don't go getting too far ahead!" called Sam.
"Why do you do that?" Asked Frodo.
"What?"
"Call him names? Run him down all the time."
"Because. 'Cause that's what he is, Mr. Frodo. There's naught left in 'im but lies and deceit. It's the Ring he wants. It's all he cares about. "
"You have no idea what it did to him. What is still doing to him. I want to help him Sam."
"Why?"
"Because I have to believe he could come back."
"You can't save him, Mr. Frodo."
"What do you know about it? Nothing!………….. I'm sorry Sam. I don't know why I said that."
"I do. It's the Ring. You can't take your eyes off it. I've seen you. You're not eating. You barely sleep. It's taking a hold of you Mr. Frodo. You have to fight it."
"I know what I have to do Sam. The Ring was entrusted to me. It's my task! Mine! My own!"
"Can't you hear yourself? Don't you know who you sound like?"
Chica sighed as she watched the two argue.
Chica Muddyfoot was Frodo Baggins fiancée, and she loved him deeply. She was very concern for Frodo's sight change in behavior witch she knew was because of the ring. So she had decided she'd take it from him, maybe he'd return to himself.
That night she waited until he was alseep. Very slowly and carefully she slipped the chain off his neck. Then she noticed he was holding the ring in his hand. She bit her lip thinking of what to do. An idea hit her. She laid down and snuggled up to him. Feeling her movement he woke up.
"Chica?"
"I'm cold, can I sleep with you." Frodo shot a look at Sam who was sound alseep. Then he looked back on Chica. She looked at him pleadingly.
"Alright come on". Chica leaned into him. Frodo wrapped his arm around her.
"I love you." Chica said.
"I love you too", Frodo said with a yawn. He pulled the blankets over them and kissed her forehead. Chica waited for Frodo to fall alseep. Once he was alseep Chica picked up the ring and chain and slipped it around her neck, and let the ring fall under her shirt. I gold was cold on her breast. She laid her head back on Frodo's chest and fell alseep.
The next day Chica awoke to the sounds of Frodo shouting.
"Where is it? I had it just last night!" Yelled Frodo then he turned his attention to Chica. His stare was cold. Chica gasped, and felt her hand fly to the ring she held her hand over where it fell on her chest. Frodo walked over to Chica and grabbed her by the shoulders.
"You took it, didn't you." He hissed shaking her. She could feel her tears falling.
"Yes, I took it. But I thought I'd be helping you."
"Don't you ever do that again." He yelled at her as he ripped the chain from her neck. Then griped her shoulders tightly.
"Frodo, you're hurting me" Chica cried. Frodo looked into her ocean blue eyes and let go of her shoulders
"Oh Chica, I'm so sorry! Please forgive me." He said as he pulled her to his chest and rocked her.
"You weren't yourself. You're already forgiven. I'm not hurt." Chica replied.
……………later that day………….
Sméagol came up with two rabbits and dropped them to Frodo's lap, as he sat leaned against a rock with his arm around Chica, who is resting her head on his shoulder. Frodo and Sam enchase looks.
"Look! Look! See what Sméagol finds! Ehehe! Hohohhooo! They are young! They are tender and nice. Yes they are! Eat them. Eat them." Sméagol picked up a rabbit and bit into it tearing it apart. Frodo's face cringed in disgust and Chica buried her face into Frodo's chest. He placed a hand on her head and stoked her curls, comforting her.
"Make him sick you will, behaving like that. There's only one way to eat a brace of coneys". Shot Sam taking the rabbits so Sméagol and cooking them.
"Argh!! Whats he doing! Stupid fat hobbit. You ruins it!" yelped Sméagol
"Whats to ruin? There's hardly any meat on them. What we need it a few good taters." commented Sam
"What's taters? Preciousss, what's taters? Huh?"
"Po-ta-toes!! Boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew. Lovely big golden chips with a nice piece of fried fish." :
"Phooh!" spat Sméagol
"Even you couldn't say no to that." replied Sam
"Oh yes we could. Ssspoiling nice fish! Give it to ussss raw. and wwwriggling. You keep nasty chips!"
"You're hopeless"
meanwhile Chica had fallen alseep. And Frodo went to go see what a noise he had heard was. Sam looked around.
"Mr Frodo?"
Sam and Sméagol found Frodo. Who had spotted an army of the Easterling soldiers marching nearby.
"Who are they?" asked Sam
"Wicked men, servants of Sauron. They are called to Mordor. The Dark One is gathering all armies to him. It won't be long now. It will soon be ready." Said Sméagol.
"Ready to do what?"
"To make His war. The last war that will cover all the world in shadow."
"We've got to keep moving. C'mon Sam." Said Frodo starting to get up.
"Mr. Frodo! Look! It's an Oliphant! No one at home will believe this." Said Sam grabbing Frodo's arm as Sméagol snuck away
"Sméagol?" questioned Frodo. Just then chaos breaks out, the Easterlings are attacked from the bushes.
"We've lingered here for too long. C'mon Sam!" Said Frodo getting up and walking into a human. Frodo and Sam are both caught by men.
"Bind their hands." said Faramir
"Captain Faramir we found this one alseep by a campfire". Said a human holding Chica.
"Don't hurt her" Frodo shouted to the human. He could see fear in her eyes, this made him want to hold her.
