A/N: George: Emily has gone into hiding. Which basically means I have locked her in her room until she has done some math revision. Yes I am inhumane, but it has to be done. 'evil laugh' Just because I enjoy seeing her suffer doesn't make me a bad person! It's her own fault; she managed to see Troy three times when it had only been out TWO days!!!!!!!

Disclaimer: We'll give it back I promise. However, Legolas may be slightly damaged after Emily has finished playing with him.

Chapter Twenty-Seven – "Can I kill a main character at the end of the story?"

"Gandalf!" Exclaimed Aragorn. "It is really you!"

"Why would anyone be excited to be reunited with him?!" Shuddered Emily.

"It is good to see you too Aragorn!" Said a bemused Gandalf.

"We thought you were dead!" Cried Legolas.

"Now what would give you that idea?" Laughed the wizard.

Legolas and Aragorn turned to Emily and George.

"What?!" Shouted Emily and George.

"You told us Gandalf was killed by a huge rock!" Yelled Aragorn while Legolas looked contemptuously at Emily.

"When?!" Asked George.

"Did not!" Defended Emily.

"When you were speaking a different language." Answered Aragorn.

"We told you Gandalf was dead when we were speaking a different language." Clarified George.

Aragorn nodded. By the look on Legolas' face you could see that the penny had dropped.

"And you don't see a problem with that?" Questioned George.

Aragorn began to shake his head; "No I do not…oh…hang on…"

"Apologize are gratefully appreciated." Sighed Emily theatrically.

Aragorn mumbled something akin to 'sorry.'

"I am sorry Emily." Said Legolas as he placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Hey! You two have been alone together for way to long. Come on Em, we have some exploration to do!" Emily and George ran off.

….

"Frodo has passed beyond my sight. The darkness is deepening." Mused Gandalf.

"If Sauron had the Ring, we would know it." Sated Aragorn.

"It is only a matter of time…"

"That's it Gandalf, keep that positive spirit alive!" Said George as he and Emily entered the throne room.

"Ah there you are. I was hoping that your insight could help us. However, I very much doubt it."

Emily finally perfected her Kiera Knightly pout and stood with Legolas.

"If it wasn't for us…there…there…would be…" Began George.

"Yes?" Smirked Aragorn.

"Hi guys!"

Everyone turned to the entrance.

"Boromir me man!!!!!!!!!" Laughed George running up to his friend and pulling him into a hug.

"Haldir!" Shrieked Emily jumping into the elf's arms.

Boromir laughed; "It is good to see you two scamps alive and well."

"What brings you here?"

"Well we decided that we would not let our friends stand alone, so here we are." Answered Haldir.

"That's it! If it wasn't for us Boz and Hal would be dead!" Cried George poking Aragorn in the ribs causing the man to flinch violently.

"Boromir!" Cried Merry and Pippin. "We thought you were dead!"

"I would be if it wasn't for these two."

Emily and George smiled proudly and smugly.

"It shall be concluded that you have merit for being here. Does this brilliance of yours extend to the situation at hand?" Asked Gandalf.

Emily and George paused in thought.

"Didn't think so." Mumbled Aragorn.

"I am seriously fed up with you!" Shouted Emily. "You are going to regret pissing me off!"

"What are you going to do? Curse me!" Laughed Aragorn.

"Big mistake!" Sighed George.

"Emily my love. Just ignore him, he is worried about Frodo, he does not mean to be so rude to you." Legolas tried to mediate but it was too late Emily's brain had already decided on a plan.

Gandalf decided to steer the conversation back to the impending doom of Middle-Earth.

"Sauron has suffered a defeat, yes…but…behind the walls of Mordor the enemy is regrouping."

Gimli decided to voice his opinion, "Let them stay there…let them rot! Why should we care?"!

"Because ten thousand Orcs now stand between Frodo and Mount Doom" Gandalf shut Gimli up. "I have sent him to his death…"

"Ooooh plan!" Emily began jumping up and down. George following his sister's line of thought grabbed her hand as both of them ran up to the throne, jumped onto it and pointed their fingers into the air and looked at Legolas expectantly.

Everyone followed suit and stared at the elf. Legolas shifted nervously and raised an eyebrow.

"A diversion?" Asked Legolas.

Emily nodded furiously.

"A diversion!" Said Legolas with confidence.

"Huh?" Said Gimli.

"We can give Frodo time, and safe passage across the Plains of Gorgoroth." Answered Aragorn.

"How?" Asked Gimli skeptically.

"Draw out Sauron's armies, empty his lands."

"We cannot achieve victory through strength of arms." Added Eomer.

Emily and George gulped.

"Not for ourselves…but we can give Frodo his chance if we keep Sauron's Eye fixed upon us. Like Legolas said, a diversion." Finished Aragorn.

"I think Legolas said it better." Mumbled Emily.

"One day I shall find it hard refraining from harming you!" Yelled Aragorn.

Legolas' nostrils flared. Aragorn was in trouble.

"You go near her and…" Began the elf.

"Whoa! Calm down ladies." Announced George jumping off the throne. "Now you two are friends remember! Great, Em you managed to break up one the most loyal friendships ever written."

"Whoops." Said Emily quietly.

'Hey remember the curse I found out what it was!' Jumped in Emily's brain.

"You did?"

'I am a brain you know! Just you wait Aragorn! He'll get what is coming to him!' Her brain let out a manic laugh.

"When you are quite finished talking to yourself I would like to make a point!" Began Gandalf. "Sauron will suspect a trap. He will not take the bate."

"Certainty of death! Small chance of success! What are we waiting for?!" Roared Gimli.

….

"I think you should make up with Aragorn." Said Emily as she rode with Legolas.

The remaining Rohan and Gondorian soldiers were being led by Aragorn and 'friends' to the Black Gate.

"You do not like Aragorn, why would you want me to make up with him?" Asked the elf.

"Well I would hate it if you parted on bad terms."

"Why would think we would be parted. What do you know?"

"Urrmmm…no reason."

"Emily?"

"Oh Ok! My brain is plotting an evil plan to get rid of Aragorn and I can't stop it!" Emily felt a flood of relief swamp her after getting that off her chest.

"How can you not stop it? It is your mind!"

"Yeah well there is an ongoing dispute over that fact. My brain doesn't like me so does everything in it's power to embarrass me horribly. I don't know what to do!"

"What do you know about the plan?" Asked Legolas.

"Well it involves a curse."

"You asked about the curse of the Dead. Could it be that?" Asked a now worried Legolas.

"Quite possibly."

"You cannot carry out that curse it is too dangerous. For both you and Aragorn!"

"My brain has a mind of it's own. If it wants to do something it will do it. Like the time it dyed your hair…" Emily quickly shut-up.

"You?!"

"The brain!"

Legolas took in a deep breath.

"I'll ride with someone else if you want." Said Emily sadly.

"No. It is all right; I know you would not want anything as embarrassing as pink hair to happen to me on purpose. At least now I know why you are so worried about this plan your brain has."

"Do you think I'm weird?"

"Of course." Laughed Legolas.

Emily smiled, "I love you elfy."

"I love you too weirdo." Legolas replied.

….

"Let the Lord of the Black Land come forth!" Called Aragorn sounding for some reason Irish. "Let justice be done upon Him!"

"Nothings happening." Commented Pippin.

"I'm getting dejavu!" Said George scratching his head. Yoshie nodded in agreement.

Finally the Bach Gate began to open and Sauron's remaining army was revealed to the group.

"Pull back…Pull back!" Ordered Aragorn.

"Best idea that man has ever had!" Yelped George as Yoshie sped off. Unfortunately the dragon had other ideas and ran head first into the army of Orcs.

"Geeeeeeooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Screamed Emily. "Legolas turn around!"

"No Emily. It would mean certain death!" Argued the elf. "I will not let you be harmed!"

"You don't really have a choice!" Before Legolas could answer Emily had jumped off the horse and began to scale the mountain at the side of the Black Gate.

"Emily!" Cried Legolas. The last he saw of her was her blond hair disappearing over the Black Gate. Legolas spurred his horse around but was stopped by a little voice.

"Legolas wait!" Cried Pippin. "They will be fine. I do not think even Sauron could get rid of those two."

Legolas carried on but halted when he realized that the Hobbit was most likely right. He would stay with the Fellowship but still he had this feeling that he would not see Emily or George again.

….

"Well this is perfect Yoshie!" Shouted George as the dragon ploughed through the hoards of Orcs.

"George!" George heard his name being called from above. He looked up to see Emily hanging off of a rock ledge.

"A hand would be good!" She cried.

By now most of the Orcs had passed surrounding the soldiers outside the gate.

"Yoshie whoa!" Cried George but Yoshie kept going. "Oh sod it!" George jumped off the dragon and watched as it went flashing off into the sunset.

"Urm George!" Cried Emily. "F-F-F-Falling!"

George quickly ran to his sister's rescue.

"What are you doing here?!" Shouted George.

"Follow you anywhere remember." Said Emily hugging George.

George smiled; "Fancy finding Frodo?"

"Why not?" Giggled Emily.

….

"Clever Hobbits to climb so high!!!" Cried Gollum. What Gollum was not expecting was two angry teenagers to clothes line him.

"Isn't WWF fun?!" Laughed George as he nutted Gollum sending him flying down the mountainside.

"Emily! George! I am glad you are here!" Cried Sam.

"Whoa dude! You look rough!" Remarked George.

"We lost Frodo again." Commented Emily looking around for the missing Hobbit.

"Frodo!" Cried Sam.

Sam, George and Emily ran towards the entrance of Sammath Naur. The three enter as the ground shook beneath them.

"Frodo!" Cried Sam again.

"I'm here Sam…" Replied Frodo.

The three at the entrance could finally see Frodo through the mist of smoke. He stood at the very end of the rock ledge. The Ring held out in front of him.

"Destroy it!!!" Shouted Sam in desperation.

Frodo continued to stare at The Ring.

"Maybe we should push him in?" Suggested Emily.

Sam shot her a glare and began to slowly approach his friend.

"We can't!" Informed George.

"Why not? It would get rid of that ring!"

"He's a main character. We can't kill him off."

"But the title of chapter suggests we do jenk a main character!" Argued Emily.

"You already have!" Replied George.

"Huh? Who?"

"I saw you slip that liquid into Aragorn's flask!"

"I did?" Cried Emily.

"Don't tell me. The brain has rebelled again!" George shook his head in amusement.

"Aragorn's dead?!" Cried Emily in sudden realization.

"If not already. Soon!" Answered George.

"So now what do we do?" Asked Emily.

"Watch the show then as good old dad used to say; Sod off!"

….

The forces of Sauron fled as the Great Eye contracted and exploded. The warriors of Middle-earth looked on at the destruction of Sauron and his lands. The rejoicing rose above the noise of the falling tower of Barad-dur.

"Frodo!" Shouted Merry.

Mount Doom suddenly blew its top sending volcanic debris everywhere. The rejoicing stopped. Frodo, Sam, George and Emily were all in there.

The red and orange of the Lava lit up the sky, but was followed by a beam of blue light.

"What is that?!" Cried Gimli.

Legolas looked down sadly; "It's a portal to another world."

"They've gone." Stated Gandalf.

….

The eagles had brought Frodo and Sam back safely. Frodo had remained asleep since his return, Gandalf was watching over him. Emily and George were nowhere to be found.

Gimli sat with Merry and Pippin telling them of the great food of the dwarfs.

Boromir and Haldir sat in silence in each others embrace.

Aragorn laid in bed feeling strangely queasy.

Sam joined Gandalf in watching over Frodo.

Legolas stood alone by the white tree of Gondor watching the night sky.
