NOTE: i do not own Lord of the Rings OR X-Men, though i would probably give up all my worldly possesions to do so. :)

"Please, we mean you no harm. We're not evil, we're mutants. My friends and I," She motioned to the three men behind her. "All have special gifts. Logan," She pointed to him. "Has the ability to heal from any wound, no matter how fatal, and metal claws can extend from his hands." Logan demonstrated, and Pippin and Merry gasped in fright, and ran from their hiding spots over to Frodo. "Scott," Rogue motioned to the second man, "has lasers that shoot from his eyes, which is why he wears sunglasses." She picked up an apple from the ground and cast it into the air. Scott removed his sunglasses and hit it dead-on. "Kitty..." Rogue paused for a moment, the look in her eyes only one with a true best friend and equal can have, such as Frodo and Sam do, "Can pass through any surface." She placed her hand on the ground and right through it, then went completely under it and came back up. "My power... My power isn't like theirs." She walked over to Aragorn. "If I were to place my hand on his bare skin, may I?" She asked. He nodded, looking slightly apprehensive. She pulled off her glove and touched him briefly, but long enough for her to gain some of his memories. She pulled away, and continued explaining. "I absorb his memories, his life force, his very essence." Aragorn looked worried, knowing that she had at least some of his memories.

"What did you do?" He asked, alarmed.

"Hey bub, were you listening? She just explained it. He obviously doesn't believe you Marie, how about you give him some proof." Logan growled. Rogue walked over and kneeled to him.

"Ely' nira cens ata, rima I metta, aranya. (You will see her again, before the end, my king)" Rouge whispered, but even in her soft seemingly elfish (a.n.: elvish?) voice, all could hear her. Aragorn nodded his approval, a misty far-away look in his eyes. "I know what troubles you face, what you must do."

"The Ring must be destroyed." Said Elrond. "It is a dangerous mission, and there is a great risk of death. Most of you will die."

"I'm coming with you." Rogue said firmly.

"Rogue, I agree we should help, but we can't just jump straight into it." Scott said. "We need a plan, we need strategy, we need..."

"Plan: Destroy the Ring. Strategy: Go to Mt. Doom." Rogue said. (Since she absorbed Aragorn, she knows all about the plan.)

"Why should we trust these strangers?" Boromir asked. "What reason have we not to trust them?" Legolas stepped up.

"Would you carry the Ring alone?"

"Why should he carry the Ring?" Gimli said, standing, though it didn't really make a difference in his height. All at once everyone was arguing. Even Gandalf and Elrond were included. Scott, Kitty, and Logan were in a heated debate, but Rogue lost interest and looked at Frodo, who had suddenly come forth.

"I will take the Ring." He said, but nobody heard him. Again, louder he said, "I will take the Ring. Though, I do not know the way." Everyone was silent, and Gandalf shook his head. Before anyone could speak, Rogue walked behind him.

"As long as I am alive I will follow you," She said seriously, then after thinking about it, added, "Except if you die. Then I'm not following you, but I'll make sure what you started is finished." Logan stepped next to her, followed by Kitty, and reluctant Scott. Others, too, made their way forth.

"I will help you bear this burden, as long as it is yours to bear." Gandalf said.

"If by my life or death, if I can protect you, I will... you have my sword." Aragorn kneeled before him.

"And my bow." Legolas nimbly stepped forward. "And my axe." Gimli said. Suddenly a blur ran from the bushes.

"Mr. Frodo ain't going nowhere without me." Sam said.

"No indeed, it is hardly impossible to separate you from him even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not." Elrond said, a smile playing on his lips. Boromir stepped forward, almost as if he was afraid to come.

"I suppose I shall come to see the Ring destroyed, even if it does mean the possible fall of my country." He said.

"God, get over yourself." Rogue muttered under her breath. She caught Legolas' eye, and he winked at her. His superior Elf ears gave him the ability to hear her whispered words. 'Oh crap.' She thought.

"Well, I'm going as well!" Merry said.

"Me too!" Pippin yelled, the two joining the group. "You need people of intelligenceon this sort of mission... quest... thing." Everyone stared at him.

"Well, that rules you out Pip." Merry said.

"Thirteen shall go forth to destroy what was made, you shall be known as The Fellowship of The Ring." Elrond said dramatically.

"Great!" Pippin beamed. "Where are we going?" Rogue sighed and rubbed her forehead.

"Anyone have any aspirin? This is going to be a long trip."
