Sorry I haven't updated this in a while but school and homework have kept
me busy. I can't wait for summer! About chapter 4, my friend gets partial
credit for the choking thing. We were at lunch and she started coughing and
I said in a real stupid voice "Julia, are you CHOKING?" It didn't help any,
but it was funny. Anyway thanks to all of my reviewers, y'all are great!

"Hey Merry," Pippin's voice came through the darkness that even an elf's eyes could not pierce.
"What?"
"What time is it?"
Merry sighed. "How am I supposed to know?"
Pippin shrugged then remembered that no one could see him. "I'm bored," he complained, "Anyone have any food?"
"What do I look like, a walking refrigerator?" Gimli asked, irritated. He really wanted his Gameboy.
"I don't know," came Pippin's reply, "I can't see you."
"Pippin, is there ever a time when you don't think about food?" Sam asked.
"I don't think so."
Frodo sighed and gave Pippin his Hershey bar just so he could have some peace and quiet. He didn't really mind giving up the candy bar though. It had been in his pocket for years and was probably stale by now. His suspicions were confirmed when Pippin said "Oooh! This Hershey bar tastes different! Better! It seems kind of hard and chewy though, almost like it's old and stale..."
Frodo smiled to himself.

Aragorn and Gandalf looked at each other.
"We must hurry back," Aragorn said urgently, "Who knows what our friends might do without being able to see."
They started walking, then all of the sudden Gandalf's arm shot out and stopped Aragorn in his tracks.
"Aragorn! What about Gimli?"
"What about him?" Why would Gandalf all the sudden care about the smelly dwarf?
"He has my CD."
Aragorn rolled his eyes.
They were about to continue their trek through the dark when Aragorn got an idea.
"Hey Gandalf, you're a wizard, right?"
Gandalf mumbled something, too absorbed in his worry about his CD. Aragorn took this as a yes.
"Why don't you just say a couple of magic words to turn the power back on?"
Gandalf broke out of his trance-like state long enough to shoot Aragorn a disgusted look and say, "You've been reading too many Harry Potter books."
Aragorn blushed.

Eowyn and Faramir inched slowly down the aisles, trying to find the light switch.
"Why do you think someone turned out the lights?" Eowyn questioned her husband.
"Maybe it was closing time. I wish I could see my watch."
The couple pondered this idea until a high-pitched squeak came seemingly from nowhere.
Eowyn screamed and jumped behind Faramir, who was wishing he had some sort of weapon with him.
"W-what is it?" Eowyn whispered, "It had better not be a mouse."
Faramir would have laughed at his wife's comment if the situation had not been so tense. Eowyn had a phobia of mice. She hated the little critters. It was rather amusing to see her try to chase one out of the kitchen with a broom.
"Do something!" Eowyn demanded.
Faramir stuck out his foot and kicked where the sound came from. It squeaked again and the both jumped back.
Faramir was feeling very vulnerable right now. The squeaking thing was really starting to scare him. It's evil high squeak sent shivers up his spine. What if it was a rat; a huge oversized rodent coming to kill them all?!
His crazy thoughts were interrupted by another squeak from the thing. Without thinking, he turned to run and crashed into a shelf. All of the sudden, squeaks filled the air and Faramir screamed. No, they were closing in on him, how would he ever survive?!
Eowyn put a reassuring hand on Faramir's shoulder. "It's alright, honey, they're just chew toys. You know, the ones dogs chew on."
Chew toys? Dogs? Faramir had never been more embarrassed in his life. He picked one up and squeezed it. It squeaked. The squeak no longer seemed evil; it now taunted him. How could he be so scared of something dogs chew on?
"Eowyn, dear, could you, um, please not mention this to anyone?"
Eowyn smiled and laughed. "Sure."

Back in electronics, everyone was either bored or scared. Or both in some cases.
Pippin was one of the bored people. He had long since finished the stale Hershey bar (though he still didn't know it was it was stale) and was hungry again. All of the sudden, he burst into song:
"I looked out my window and what did I see?
Popcorn popping on the apricot tree!
Spring has brought me such a nice surprise,
Blossoms popping right before my eyes!
I can take an armful and make a treat,
A popcorn ball that would smell so sweet!
It wasn't really so, but it seemed to me,
Popcorn popping on the apricot tree!"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the source of the sound.
"What was that all about?" Merry asked.
"Yeah, I didn't know you were Mormon, Pippin!" Sam exclaimed.
Pippin was confused. "What's a Mormon?"
"It's a religion," Sam said knowingly.
"Oh, well I'm not a Mormon as far as I know," Pippin said, "Hey Merry, am I a Mormon?"
Merry sighed. "No."
"Then why were you singing a Mormon song?" Sam questioned.
"That's a Mormon song?"
"Nevermind."
"How do you know so much about Mormons, Sam?" Legolas asked.
"Oh, I had a neighbor a couple years back who was Mormon."
Legolas chuckled. A Mormon hobbit, now there's a sight to see.
A/N: So, how was it? Review it and tell me! A few things to clarify:
*I am not Mormon but a close friend of mine is (who happens to be the Julia who helped me think of the choking thing, who also happens to be LilyEvens13)
*The song Pippin sings is a Mormon song that my friend (Julia aka LilyEvens13) taught to me and we like to sing it at random times during the day
*If anyone has seen The Singles Ward (a Mormon movie my friend forced me to watch and it really was quite funny!) imagine the scene where the two guys are in the kitchen with the helium balloons and singing the popcorn song. Now imagine Pippin singing it that voice in a dark empty Wal- Mart store with a bunch of other people. Yeah. The result is pretty entertaining.
Oh, I'm just wondering, has anyone read the 12th Left Behind book? I'm reading it right now and it is GREAT! I LOVE it!
