Thank you to:
TheAnonymousAgent506, I'm glad you liked it. I'm only a beginning author, so I hope it will only get better.
Chibi Horsewoman, Yeah, I thought that this was a nice break from all the people who love Legolas (no offence to you who do).
Ireth Lossehelin, Well, I updated! Thanks for reading it!
Well, if you got this far, then the 1st chapter obviously held your attention, so thank YOU too! (And I apologize for all the lame jokes in this chapter. I couldn't think of much.)
Chapter 2: Caradhras
The Fellowship was on it's way. They had been traveling for several days now, but the mountains still seemed so far away. Legolas thought the children had been taking all the traveling quite well, but Draco. He had been complaining or insulting someone (mainly Hermione) the whole time. At this time, he was having an insult contest with Pippin, who was nearly as good as he was. The other hobbits and the Gryffindors listened with great interest.
Draco: If you lived in an apartment, you'd only be able to ride the elevator half of the way up, cause you'd be too short to push the elevator buttons, shorty.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione groaned at such a lame joke. Pippin was not deeply injured by this, as he had no clue what an apartment, or an elevator was.
Ron: Is that the best you could do, Malfoy?
Draco: Shut up, muggle lover, I was in a hurry!
He tried again.
Draco: I went into your house and saw something that looked like a booger on the wall. I tried to wipe it off, but your mother stopped me and told me it was your baby picture.
This did have some effect on Pippin, but he did not show it.
Pippin: What a coincidence. I would've thought it was your picture!
Draco: Don't make me hex you.
Pippin: I think someone already hexed you.
Draco: What?? Why?
Pippin: I don't think it's natural to have hair as hard as a rock, or have such a revolting color.
He said this very fast, so it was quite difficult for Malfoy to absorb most of this. But Pippin wasn't done.
Draco: Wha-?
Pippin: You don't get it, do you? Well, what did I expect from such a blonde?
The onlookers smirked at Malfoy, who looked quite dumbstruck. Here he was, in a strange land, walking, all day, every day, trying to destroy some ring he knew nothing about, and a midget creature was besting him in insults.
Hermione: What's wrong, Blondie? Not used to having your victims fight back?
Draco: Shut up, Mudblood.
Ron pointed at something dark in the sky.
Ron: Hey, Aragorn? What is that?
Aragorn: Hide, fools! They're Crebain!
Hermione: No, they're clearly-
The Fellowship is quite used to this by now.
All: Hermione! Shut up!
Harry: Who cares what they are? They're evil, right?
Boromir: They are spies for Saruman!
Harry: Who is.?
Boromir: Evil.
Harry: Ahh.
The Crebain flies away after a few minutes.
Hermione: I still say they were doxies that--
She stops when she realizes that no one is listening to her senseless babbling.
Many days later, they reach Caradhras. As expected, Draco isn't happy with the steep slopes.
Draco: This is ridiculous! Why did I accept this? My father would be furious!
All groan as he raves on about his father, who they have all heard quite enough of. Draco continues.
Draco: It can't POSSIBLY get any worse!
The snow starts falling, heavily and swiftly.
Gimli: It just got worse.
Gandalf: And it will keep getting worse if we don't find shelter! This is no ordinary storm, my friends. Saruman sent this!
Minutes later, they are all huddled under a thin ledge which was the best "shelter" that they could find. It was freezing.
Draco: H-h-hey, Beard-b-boy! Can you use y-your axe t-t-to make a hole in the side o-o-of the m-mountain so we aren't st-stuck out here?
Frodo: That m-might be the f-f-first sensible idea y-you've ever had, Blondie.
Legolas: You forget that I am blonde as well.
Boromir: Well, you're u-u-useful with that bow a-and t-th-those arrows. I s- seriously doubt that this .child. is g-good for as much.
Draco: (angrily) Rictusempra!
Boromir was winded, and lost his breath (as well as his pride). Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Sam, and Frodo simultaneously start yelling at Draco. Merry, Pippin, Harry, and Ron smirk as they look on. Meanwhile, Hermione had made a good-sized hole in the rock. All at once, the Fellowship noticed, and attempted to squeeze in. Quite conveniently, only twelve of the thirteen people fit.
Aragorn: Who volunteers to sleep outside?
We hear the sound of crickets chirping, but no answer from the Fellowship.
Aragorn: We'll have to vote then.
Harry, Hermione, Ron, Boromir, Gandalf and Pippin vote for Draco. Draco and Merry voted for Pippin (obviously, Merry thought it would be a grand joke if Pippin had to sleep outside). Legolas and Gimli voted for Hermione. The rest of the Fellowship (the ones without grudges) voted for Gandalf.
Ron: (not sounding sorry at all) Oh, sorry, Malfoy.
Hermione: Too bad.
Draco: Mudblood and muggle lovers.
Ron: Watch your mouth, Malfoy!
At this point, Aragorn decides to step in before it gets any worse.
Aragorn: The child would die if he were forced to sleep outside!
Merry changed his vote to Draco.
Gimli: Wouldn't any of us?
Legolas: Elves are most likely powerful enough to survive such weather.
Gimli: Did the valiant elf just volunteer?
Legolas: Oh, no, I was just. uh. No.
Gimli: You were simply listing another way in which elves are superior to dwarves.
Legolas: (smugly) Yes, I believe I was.
They start to argue on which species is better, and no one notices that Hermione has expanded the cave quite a bit.
Hermione: Ahem!
Gimli: (figuring she's trying to tell them what she's read about elves and dwarves.) We don't CARE what you read, girl! It's false!
Hermione: Ahem!
Legolas: (figuring the same thing) It's different in our world, Hermione!
Draco: Mudblood.
Hermione: AHEM!!
All: WHAT??
Hermione: (smugly) I just wanted to let you know that the cave is now large enough to hold twenty people, but if you don't care---
The fellowship spreads out and marks their sleeping areas.
Hermione: Well, if no one wants to thank me, than I believe that I have every right to use the cave all to myself.
All: Thank you, Hermione!
It's not my best, but I don't think it's my worst. I liked the 1st chapter more. Please Review!
