Next chapter here. And I know this took a little longer to update than the last one but it's here. I'm sorry, yet again. Hope you enjoy it and thank you all for such wonderful reviews.

White Knuckled Rides

"Wow!" Pippin was gazing up at the large castle like structure of the entrance gate to the theme park. "I've never seen anything like that before."

"Erm, Pippin?" Legolas asked. "Don't the halls in Rivendell look like that?"

"Well, yes." Pippin admitted. "But I didn't think these big people would live in anything like that."

"They don't live in here Pip."

"Where..."

"Oh never mind let's get going."

Gandalf took charge of the money and ticket buying and after they had squeezed through the turn styles (in the case of Gimli) and spun through the turn styles several times, (in the case of the hobbits), they found a couple of maps and started to plan their day.

The hobbits were eager to go on the biggest, scariest rides they could find but were very disappointed to find that they were under the height limit. They wandered off, with mischievous looks on their faces, only to return a few minutes later.

Pippin was standing on Merry's shoulders and Frodo on Sam's. They each had a large overcoat wrapped around them as walked as though they were two very tall drunken men. They were convinced that this was the way they were going to get on all the rides.

"Why don't we split up?" Pippin called from the top of Merry's shoulders

"No, we are going to spend the day as one big family." Gandalf said, putting his arm around Gimli's shoulders. Gimli shrugged him off.

"Yes, if you say so Gandalf. I wanna go on the Big Dipper." Merry called, his voice slightly muffled.

"No, the twirly thing."

"No, the up and down thingy."

"No, the teacups."

"No, the...what? The teacups? Aragorn?"

"Erm...yes, the teacups. Big rides make me nauseous."

"Ok, let's start small and work big." Sam suggested, sensing that an argument was about to break out.

They headed off to the teacups. Much to everyone's disappointment. The teacups started going round. Very very slowly.

"Weeeeeeee! This is so much fuuuun!" Aragorn was waving his hands around above his head as the fellowship had all squeezed into one teacup. Everyone else was pretending they weren't with him and the children in the surrounding cups were staring at him strangely. At last it finished.

"Oh forget about it. We're not starting small and going big, we're going straight to the top now."

Everyone ran off to the largest roller coaster they could find on the map. Aragorn and Legolas weren't as certain and had to be dragged along.

When they were seated and Legolas and Aragorn had been fastened in next to each other with no chance of escape, it started at last. It took several minutes to climb to the top of the first big drop.

"The air is too thin up here. I can't breathe." Aragorn gasped.

"Oh shut up. We're nearly there now."

Legolas was growing whiter and whiter. "I'm going to fall oooouuuut!"

It was too late. The carriage reached the top and dropped down the other side. The hobbits had climbed down off each others shoulders and were all squeezed into two seats. Gandalf and Gimli were next to each other and Legolas and Aragorn were at the very back.

"Yaaaay!"

"Arrrgh!"

"Weeeee!"

"Nooooo!"

Before any of them realised, the ride was over. Legolas and Aragorn were clutching each other tightly, their eyes closed and muttering prayers to Elbereth and anyone they thought would be listening. Aragorn was saying that he would never annoy Arwen again if he got off this ride alive.

They opened their eyes and realised the ride had stopped. Letting go of each other they stood up and tried to walk manly off the ride. Legolas didn't manage it and threw up, not for the last time, behind a bush.

The hobbits were already off the ride and standing on top of each other again, running to the next ride.

This continued for most of the day. Aragorn kept begging for the teacups, Gandalf wanted to sit and read his newspaper, Gimli kept getting stuck in the 'very small' seats on rides, the hobbits were very eager to try every ride possible and Legolas kept getting hassled to try the 'Love boat' out with any girl who happened to be passing. He had also been hit at least twice by angry boyfriends.

The day came to a steady end. They were running around trying to go on very ride before they were thrown out when the security guards caught up with them and told them that they should have been out half an hour ago and surely they knew that they had had 5 guards chasing them for the past 20 minutes.

The scariest ride of the day, the ride home, started again when Aragorn said that seeing as he'd done such a good job on the way there, he was going to drive home.

Thankfully all survived the journey and Legolas went to bed nursing a bruised eye and swollen lip. They were all much wiser from the days events, though they weren't sure how, and all dreamt about the terrifying ride they would have the next day on the way to a water park that Frodo had begged everyone to visit.

The Converted : Argh, leggy run! You can't hurt my poor elf yet. I haven't finished the story. I'd have to turn into and R rating or something if I had to write about an almost dead Legolas in Ibiza with a screw driver sticking out of his head. Plus, he's cute. Well more than cute. I know, you can stab Frodo instead. much more fun! lol.

AAAclub Yes I suppose Legolas would have the same reaction because of the motion sickness, well he kind of did anyway. I hope you liked this chapter because several people were looking forward to the theme park one and I hope I haven't disappointed.

Ainu Laire: Glad you liked Aragorn's driving. I did find it very funny to write and I can just picture all this happening on the streets of Ibiza. Just remind me never to get in a car with him.

Queen Arwen: Ok, I will let you loose on the Fellowship as soon as I have finished with them. I only have another 3/4 chapters to go I think. Then you can play with them as much as you like! Just don't hurt Legolas too much.

MichelleFrodo: Yes you have the prize for the longest review. And Frodo would like to give you a bottle of sun cream as your prize. In fact he says you can take the last 50 bottle of sun cream if you like. Then Sam won't make him wear it anymore. Glad you like this story though and use the sun cream wisely.


got-lotr : Oh! The Police. Now that would have been funny. Aragorn locked up in a cell. Hehe. Very good idea. But I didn't think of that! Oh well. Life goes on. I'm sure Aragorn will be happy that that thought never crossed my mind.

Thank you everyone who reviewed this story so far. I think there are only about 4 chapters left to go now so I have started to write a follow up. Please let me know in a review if you would like a sequel tot his story or if you have already had enough. I love writing them so I will probably write anyway lol.

Bye for now
