(woah!! ^_^ Cool!! Sorry, I'm addicted to Reviews!! Hee hee. I have 40 reviews!! *dances* here is a new chappy for all of you who reviewed *hugs them all*)
"Frodo come on!!!" Pippin shouted running as fast as he could with all falling flat on his face. The little one was very excited. Finally they had gotten down to some snow that was packed nicely, packed enough for beings to walk on.
"Pippin Took get back here." Aragorn shouted, "You should be sitting on that horse!"
The Took stopped and turned back around confused, "Why Strider? That horse won't talk, it's boring."
Aragorn let out a frustrated sigh throwing his hands up in the air. "I give up."
Frodo walked up behind them chuckling, "Did you really think that Pip was going to sit on the horse all day?"
"Well I hoped that he might." Aragorn replied not looking directly at the hobbit who was still smiling like a child. "What are you grinning about?"
"You." Frodo exclaimed, "Thinking that a child would sit still that long."
"How can he have so much energy?" Legolas asked catching up with them. "I thought he was sick."
"That one," Frodo muttered under his breath, "Is something I have yet to figure out."
"Figure out what Frodo?"
"Why your cousin has so much energy even when he's sick."
Merry shrugged, "Cousin, if you ever figure that one out please enlight me. This morning he was saying that his stomach hurt and now he's running around like nothing is wrong. I guess young ones are like that."
*~*~*~*~*
The Fellowship walked a little ways more and then stopped on top of a huge hill that sloped down the side of the mountain. Curiously Pippin looked over the side. "That's a far way down."
"Long way." Merry corrected, he to looked over, "Boromir are we going down there?"
"We have to Master Brandybuck."
The hobbit turned around giving an incredulous look. His eyes were wide and his grip on Pippin's arm tightened. "Are you playing with my mind? That is a steep hill."
"Yes, but it only looks that way. Actually it's quite fun if we have the right materials. Don't you ever sled where you are from?"
"Yes, but not down a hill that steep. I won't allow Pippin to do that."
The younger hobbit looked up and pouted. Had they forgotten that he was here? "Merry," Pippin exclaimed tugging at the older hobbit's golden vest, "I'll go. And you can hold my hand if you're scared ok?"
Merry turned bright red and watched his cousin run off to go bother the other part of the Fellowship. He wasn't afraid. No, not him, he was to old to be afraid. But a feeling tugged at his mind and he gulped looking over the side again. ::Ok, so I'm a little afraid..:: He said to himself. Then a piece of ice slid off the hill and crashed below, ::Alright, VERY afraid.:: He scampered away from the side of the hill sitting in a safe spot.
"So we are going to get down there by sledding?" Gandalf exclaimed. The wizard still did not see logic in Aragorn's idea. "Are you sure it's safe?"
Aragorn nodded, "If we walk it'll be more dangerous. At least if we sled we have a less chance of loosing one of the hobbits."
"Are you sure about this?"
Aragorn nodded, "Yes, if the hobbits are on the sled we have a less chance of them falling and sliding off in an unknown direction."
"What are we going to use as a sleigh than?" The wizard was still very skeptical about the whole thing. "Is it safe?"
"Boromir bring it over here."
The man of Gondor brought over his shield and placed it on the ground. "We're going to use this. I think tho that Aragorn and I need to go down and see if it's safe or not."
"No," Came a smooth voice, "I'll go. An Elf can withstand more than humans."
"I didn't think Elves sledded." Boromir joked. "Have you ever sledded before?"
"You are correct," The Elf prince replied, "Elves don't sled. But you humans do a lot of things that Elves don't do. I am learning that quickly as we travel together. I'm sure though with some instructions I can use this contraption you call a sled."
"If you think this is a contraption then you should see some of the other stuff that we use."
Legolas rolled his eyes. "Just get it ready and I'll go down and check it out."
