Now for your regularlly scedhuled chapter:
*~*
"So, I'm going down there to see what?" Legolas asked strapping his bow and arrows to his back checking out the so called 'sled' of Boromir's.
The man of Gonder nodded, "Yes, go down to see how far until we can't sled anymore."
*~*
"Are we really going down?"
"Down?"
"YES!! Down there!!" A small finger pointed down the steep hill covered in snow. Innocent green eyes turned back to meet brown eyes, "Merry, are we?"
"I don't know.." ::Hope not:: Merry muttered to himself. Pippin climbed up ontop of his cousin used to using Merry as a pillow or a bed even and got comfortable. The blond made no fuss, Pippin was still young enough to do this. 10 years from now, well don't think so. It didn't take long before Pippin was fast asleep. Merry sighed tiredly resting his chin on Pip's unruley curls.
"Tired or worried Master Brandybuck?" Merry looked up and saw Aragorn kneeling infront of them.
"Both I guess. It's that Pippin doesn't feel good but he is jumping around like he is."
The ranger smiled warmly, "I'm sure you were the same way, Meriadoc. Get some sleep. Pippin is sleeping which means you have a moments rest."
Merry nodded and soon fell fast asleep. After making sure both hobbits were in a deep sleep Aragorn gathered the youngest up in his arms and carried him over to the others. Merry needed some time alone and this would be the only way. The 12 year old's body was warm, a feverish warm. That meant that Pippin still had the fever. ::I knew it was to good to be true.:: Strider told himself.
"How is he?"
"Fever is back." Was the Ranger's reply.
"Where is Merry?" The ring bearer asked surprised that Merry wasn't hopping around Strider trying to get Strider to give up his claim on Pippin. This wasnt like Merry at all.
"He's sleeping, Frodo. Over there."
"Oh. So you just took Pip from him?" Frodo exclaimed, "Are you mad?"
"I'm sorry?" Strider asked his eyes widening, he'd never seen the Ring Bearer so worked up before. "What is wrong?"
"I'll put it this way, Mr. Strider," Sam began, "When Mr. Merry wake up and sees Pippin not there, I would not want to be you."
"In other words I just made the biggest mistake a human could make, eh?" Strider sighed. The human shifted the small hobbit in his arms eyeing the other two. "Just how mad does Merry get?"
Frodo only whistled going back to what he was doing shaking his head in the process. Sam stood, "I'm beggin' you Mr. Strider. If you want to spare your life go put the child back where you got him. Merry likes to know where Pippin is at all times."
"Something tells me you two have been in a similar situation." Strider mused walking back. The other two followed, Sam had a blanket in his arms.
"No, not us. Gandalf tried it and so did Uncle Bilbo." Frodo replied grinning, "Quite a sight to see a 20 year old fussing at two old men."
Strider chuckled laying Pippin back down with Merry. After the youngest was settled Sam put a blanket over him. Then the trio heard a whoop, a splat, and a crash. "Sounds like Legolas sledding for the first time."
The two halfings ran over to the edge and started giggling. Legolas was on his back in a pile of snow with arrows and bow spread out around him. Ontop of him was the man of Gondor's shield. Even Gandalf couldn't surpress a chuckle. "Oh, I wish Peregrin could have seen that trick."
Legolas glared standing not so gracefully. His eyes were hard and, if possible, his cheeks were red from embarrassment. Gimli couldn't hold in his laughter and was all but rolling in the snow. "Well, Master Elf, like the sled?"
Boromir looked like he was about to burst from laughter anymoment. Instead he turned and went to check over Pippin. :Oh I do wish that little Pippin could have seen that one. He would have laughed so hard.::
*~*
After teaching Legolas how to use the sled the Elf became quite good at using the contraption. He came back after an hour or two. "You can sled almost all the way down. And the little way that you can't you can walk easily on foot."
"Very well, we leave in 15 minutes."
