Author's notes: Just a quick note, Elerond turned Carolyn into a frog because she defied him, and threatened to sell a precious relic. And yes, there will be some romance in this fanfic, but mostly humor! But the romance that will be in it will be like something out of a shoujo manga. Enjoy the chappie!


Later, Caitlin and Katie were sitting in a room of the castle talking. They were waiting for the rest of the fellowship to come tell them it was time to head for Mordor. The sphere Elrond had given Carolyn rested on the table. Carolyn (who was still a frog) was sitting on Katie's head.

"Can you believe this?!" Katie squealed, "We're actually going with the fellowship! This is a dream come true!"

"I can't believe there's a prophecy around my life…" Caitlin sighed, "Elrond said that we'll be able to go into other worlds and aide the chosen warriors of those worlds too. I wonder what he meant."

"Maybe he was talking about other movies and books." Katie suggested, "Maybe every book or movie out there is based off an actual world."

"SO WE HAVE TO GO INTO EVERY STORY KNOWN TO MAN?!" Caitlin screamed, "THAT'S GONNA KILL MY SOCIAL LIFE!"

Carolyn croaked in agreement.

Katie looked up at her slightly. "If you even think of peeing on me…I swear…I'll slit that little froggy throat of yours… and maybe its only worlds that are having problems." Katie added quickly, "Maybe the ones in charge of the dimensions have hard time watching everything and when something goes wrong, they'll send us to clear it up."

Caitlin heaved a huge sighed of relief. "That's good. You know, this job, as a heroine of worlds, might not be so bad. We might be able to meet the characters from our favorite books and movies."

"Yeah! Like Cujo!" Katie agreed.

"I am going NOWHERE near that dog." Caitlin said rolling her eyes and leaning back in her chair, "But I still don't understand what that orb is gonna do for us." She sighed. "And Carolyn's the leader? Oh boy, I am NOT looking forward to taking orders from her."

Both of them were silent for a moment. Then Katie spoke up. "On a completely unrelated topic, I wonder when Carolyn will turn back into a human."

POP!

There was a flash of light and the frog was gone. In its place was normal Carolyn. Unfortunately, the frog had been resting on Katie's head, so in about a millisecond, Katie was on the floor and Carolyn was crushing her.

"Yay!" She laughed, "I'm no longer slimy! Say, where's Katie?"

"Down here, dumbass." Katie growled dangerously.

"Oh there you are." Carolyn said cheerfully. She got to her feet and brushed bits of slime off her jeans. "Ick. I'll never piss of a ruler of the elven race again."

"I'd like to believe that this time." Katie sighed pulling herself up into her chair, "I really would."

"So any progress with the orb?" Carolyn asked sitting down next to her.

"Nope. But I'm guessing Elrond didn't want to tell us earlier just in case spies from Mordor were there. I overheard Aragorn saying that the orb is almost as important to the enemy as the ring." Caitlin stated.

"So this thing is supposed to bestow us with some magic powers huh?" Carolyn said staring at the crystal sphere. "But how to we use them?"

"I say we just smash it open!" Katie said grabbing it off the table.

"KATIE NO!" Carolyn screamed. Before anyone could stop her, she hurled it at the wall...just as Legolas walked in.

In moment of pure reflex, Caitlin dove forward and caught the orb, right before it smashed into the wall.

"Phew." She said standing up; "I got it." She then spotted Legolas and gulped. "Oops." She stuck the sphere back in Carolyn's hands, as if that somehow made her look guilty.

"...Carolyn, give me the sphere." Legolas said sticking out his hand. "I don't trust you three with such an important relic."

Carolyn, who had an amazing skill of being able to talk her way out of anything, came up with a perfect excuse. "Sorry, Legolas! They were playing 'Keep Away' with the orb. I tried to get it back, but they wouldn't listen! Then Katie threw it really hard and it almost broke!" She looked like she was about to cry and his heart melted.

"Well...alright. I suppose it wasn't YOUR fault." As he said 'YOUR' he shot Katie and Caitlin a dirty look. "Anyway, I just came to tell you, that we're about to set out on our quest. Are you all packed?"

"Yep!" Katie said picking up the bag with their supplies. Katie had been named 'Official Pack Mule' for the group.

"Good. Then let's go." He turned and began to leave the room.

"That was a dirty trick you pulled." Caitlin growled at Carolyn when Legolas was out of earshot.

Carolyn smiled playfully at her friend. "All's fair in love and war!" She turned and hurried after Legolas. "Wait up, Legolas!"

As Katie (loaded with bags) staggered past her, Caitlin folded her arms and glared after Carolyn. "All's fair in love and war, huh? Well Carolyn, if that's the way you want to play the game, then let the battle begin."
