A/N: Thank you guys for the reviews. Platy, I don't know what I'm going to
do next, but if I add in reviewers, you'll be the first. :-D Elrothiel, the
bomb scare was at my school, not the mall. I live in Florida, not England,
so sorry if I confused you.
*** Recap: Mary Sue has been vanquished(I like that word...heh...vanquished vanquished vanquished vanquished!!! And I'm done.). David is out with his girlfriend, Kelly. Cathy and Jennifer went up to see Jack, to find him pinned to a wall by arrows. Legolas has shown up, making this a big strange crossover. Jennifer has woken up and is feeling awfully stressed, Jack is feeling ignored, Legolas is confused, and Cathy is unconscious. Got it all? Good. On with the story.
***
Jennifer started pacing. When Legolas realized she wouldn't be stopping anytime soon, he moved to the edge of the bed and started talking quietly in Elvish to Cathy, attempting to wake her up. She stirred, then her eyes slowly blinked open. A smile crept onto her face when she noticed that only about six inches from her face was a gorgeous elf she had read about since she was little.
"You are awake, my lady!" he said, smiling. Cathy nearly melted at the sound of his voice. She nodded, and took his hands as he pulled her up. Jennifer stopped her pacing for just long enough to see Cathy staring dreamily at Legolas, and the elf turning her head to get a good look at the back of it.
"Wha' are yeh doin', then?" Jack said from the back of the room. He had been lazily watching Jennifer pace until then. Legolas didn't turn to face him, but continued to look at the back of the blonde's head.
"The lady Cathy hit her head when she fell. Jennifer, I believe it was-" he said, looking at the girl pacing. She nodded. "Yes, Jennifer landed on Cathy's leg, but I believe Cathy hit her head on that wooden table in the hall." Then he resumed examining her head.
Jennifer's eyes grew wide. "Oh no, not the table!" She rushed into the hallway and started investigating the table. When she found a small chip, she cried out in anguish and slide down to the floor. Jack walked out to find her crying on the floor, clutching the leg of the table.
"Whoa! Wha's wrong, luv?" Jack said, gently taking her shoulders. Her face was tear stained and her eyes were red.
"Everything, Jack! I'm got a pirate and an elf in my house that don't belong here, I have no idea how to get them back, my brother won't be home until late tonight, and when he gets here he'll probably be drunk, and now my dad's great-grandmother's antique table is chipped. I am absolutely, positively, screwed beyond all belief," she said, falling into the pirate's arms. He tried to comfort her as best he could.
"Shh....no more tears, lass. C'mon, up yeh go." He pulled her up and wiped away her tears. Just then, Legolas walked out, followed closely by Cathy, who seemed to be trying to smell him.
"Are you alright, Jennifer?" Legolas asked, eyes full of concern. The teenager nodded and wiped away her tears.
"Yeah, I'm ok. But I need some time to think. Alone. Can I talk to you for a minute?" she said, looking at Cathy. Her aunt nodded and followed her into her room. The two men, well, males, were left standing outside.
"Cathy, I think you should go home. Now," Jennifer said, staring into the other's eyes. Cathy's brow furrowed and she crossed her arms.
"What? Why?"
Jennifer heaved a huge sigh. "Because for one, you're absolutely falling all over elf boy, and two, I have got to find a way to fix all this, and I can't do it with you trying to grope Legolas."
Cathy looked a bit put out, but finally nodded. "Yeah, I guess you're right. Call me as soon as you figure something out, kay?" She agreed. Jennifer nodded and followed her out of the room. Jack and Legolas were standing right by the door when it opened.
"Are you going, Cathy?" Legolas asked. She nodded, sighing deeply. He took her hand and kissed it lightly. "Goodbye then, until next time." Jack snickered behind the elf, but stopped when Jennifer shot him a look.
"I'll talk to you later, Cathy," Jennifer called from the top of the stairs, when her aunt was walking out the door. It shut tightly and the only girl left in the house ran a hand through her hair.
"OK, so I'm going to go into my room, turn up the music, and think. You guys just hang out, alright? And tell me if anyone comes to the door. Got it?" The two males nodded. "Good." With that, she turned around and shut herself in her room. The dynamic duo stood there for a minute, until very loud rock music, Hoobastank to be exact, came blasting through the door.
Legolas's hands shot up to his sensitive ears, and he squeezed his eyes shut in pain. Jack took him by the elbow and led him downstairs, where the music wasn't too loud. "Alrigh', mate?" Jack said, trying to pry the elf's hands from his ears.
"What is that horrible noise?" Legolas said, rubbing his ears. His eyes stung with tears, it had hurt him so badly. Jack just shrugged.
"Dunno, but it probably is saying jus' 'ow she feels."
The two men listen to the words more closely now. And both came to the conclusion that it seemed that she herself had written the lyrics.
"I'm spinning out of control, out of control! Spinning out of control, out of control! Where should I go, What should I do Don't understand what you want from me!"
***
Jennifer eventually came out of her room. When she got downstairs, she found Legolas and Jack sitting on her favorite couch, talking.
"I'm tellin' yeh, yeh look jus' like me friend Will. 'Cept with blonde 'air. And pointy ears, o' course," Jack said. Legolas was looking at him with a look you might give to someone you thought was crazy, but wasn't quite sure. The elf supposed Jack had had a bit too much ale.
"Are you bothering Legolas, Jack?" Jennifer asked from the top of ther stairs. Jack glared at her, but Legolas just smiled.
"Not at all, milady. He was just telling me how I seem to have a frightening resemblance to his friend Will. Strange, don't you think?" His voice sounded amused, but his face said 'thank-god-you've-come-just-in- time". She smiled and winked.
"Really? How interesting. Food, anyone?" She asked, hopping into the kitchen. The two males looked at each other, shrugged, and followed her. Inside, she was skipping around, grabbing food from the pantries and shelves.
"She's completely lost 'er marbles, mate," Jack whispered to Legolas as Jennifer cracked two eggs into a large bowl. Legolas looked concerned as he nodded. Meanwhile, the girl was breaking the yolks and whisking in numerous spices. Jack's brow furrowed as she added in 3 scoops of mint chocolate chip ice cream.
Legolas stepped forward and grabbed Jennifer's hands. "Milady. Stop. Why don't you go have a seat, and leave this to Jack and I?" He said, a cautious smile on his face. She jumped at his touch and looked into his eyes like a deer in headlights.
"What? Sit?" she asked as the elf prince led her to the living room. "Sit? Oh. Ok. I'll sit." She did, looking very much like a lost child. Legolas patted her arm, smiled, and walked back into the kitchen.
Jack was standing there, staring into the steel mixing bowl. He cocked his head as Legolas came up behind him. The elf shook his head. "What happened?" Jack sighed and shrugged.
"Stress, I figure," he said, pouring the mixture down the sink. As he turned on the water to wash in down, a loud crash and a shriek came from where Jennifer was sitting.
"Not AGAIN!" She cried. They rushed out into the living room to see a tall red-haired man laying on Jennifer's favorite couch with his eyes closed. The girl was presently clutching a pillow, biting her nails. Legolas's eyes got huge, and he rushed over to the man.
"Boromir!"
(A/N: Was gonna cut it off here, but I decided to keep going)
"Boromir? Wha' kind of a name is Boromir?" Jack asked, standing at the doorway. Legolas completely ignored him and propped up the man with a pillow. The pirate shrugged and walked over to Jennifer.
"'Ey, luv, why don't yeh come with me, eh?" He took her arms and led her upstairs to her room. She collapsed onto her bed and presently fell asleep. He shook his head and left the room.
Downstairs, Boromir had sat up and was blinking his eyes open. Legolas had a mixture of shock, happiness, and utter confusion. When the son of the Steward was finally awake, his face showed a similar expression. Legolas smiled and gave him his hand. "I thought you were dead."
Boromir took it and stood up, embracing his friend. "So did I."
With that, Jack stepped forward. "Wait a minute 'ere. Dead? No one said anythin' about dead." It was then that Boromir first realized he was there. The man drew his sword quickly.
Jack, feeling very vunerable without his sword, glared hard. "I'd put tha' back there, son," he said, reaching behind his back. Boromir did not lower his sword, despite Legolas's urgings. "Put it away," Jack said again. When Boromir did not head him, the pirate whipped out his gun from behind his back.
The two Middle Earth dwellers did not recognize the weapon, of course, but when Jack cocked it they decided not to fool with it. Of course, if Legolas had his bow, there wouldn't have been a problem. But as he had left them upstairs, along with his other weapons, Boromir slowly lowered the sword and Jack motioned to the couch. The other two sat down.
"Now, could yeh kindly explain this teh me? Quickly, if yeh please," Jack said, still pointing the pistol. Boromir raised an eyebrow, but decided to relent and began the story.
"Well, I left for Rivendell, and there I joined the Fellowship to destroy-" Jack shook his head and waved him off.
"I know all tha'. Skip to the death." Legolas and Boromir were both rather confused on how this man knew about their adventures, but they did as he asked.
"And, the last thing I saw was Aragorn laying above me, giving me my sword. It all went black after that. The next thing I know, I am here."
Jack finally put his gun away and sat back on the couch. "I need some rum."
