Chapter Two: More People Meet . . . More People

"Ooh, Tidus has a girlfriend! Tidus has a girlfriend! Tidus has a girlfriend!" Harry and Hermione started chanting together. Tidus glared at them, sat down on Ron's kitchen table, put his head in his hands, and started to cry.

"It's not FAIR!" he whined. "I JUST WANT TO GO HOME!"

Just then, all of a sudden, suddenly, out of the blue, unexpectedly, abruptly, without warning, more people dropped in through the ceiling.

"OI!" bellowed Ron from his lonely corner. "WHO'RE YOU?!?!"

The really, really short creatures - there were three of them - all whipped around and stared at the four people around them.

"Frodo," whispered a red haired one, "We're not in the Shire anymore."

"What?" said Frodo, who was only half listening. "What, Pip?"

"I said," the one called Pippin said, just a little louder, "We're not in the Shire anymore."

"What's that you're saying, Pip?" said the blonde-ish one from the other side of the dark-haired one. The red-haired one turned as red as his hair as he yelled.

"I SAID WE'RE NOT IN THE SHIRE ANYMORE!" he roared.

"Well, duh," said Frodo impatiently. "ANYONE could have seen that."

Pippin sat down on the floor and folded his arms. "I'm not moving!"

"WHAT ARE YOU?" Harry yelled. All three house-elf sized creatures jumped and stared at him warily.

"WE'RE HOBBITS OF THE SHIRE IN MIDDLE-EARTH! This is Frodo this is Merry I'm Pippin and we were just going to have a drink and we dropped in through the roof but I dunno how it was really really scar-"

"SHUT UP, PIPPIN, YOU'RE MAKING IT WORSE!" shouted Merry. "Now then, are you Men?"

"No, we're Crumple-Horned-Snorga-thingys. Of COURSE we're men," said Harry.

"I'M NOT!" yelled Hermione.

"She's not. WE are," he said, pointing to himself, Ron and Tidus.

"HE'S NOT!" yelled Hermione.

"He's not. WE are," he said, pointing to himself and Ron.

"IF YOU HAD ANY BRAINS MAYBE YOU TWO WOULD BE TOO -" yelled Hermione, but someone cut her off.

"Are you going to get us a drink or are we going to starve to death?" said Frodo.

"STARVE FOR ALL I CARE!" yelled Tidus. "I WANT TO GO HOME!"

"YEAH? WELL SO DO WE!" bellowed Pippin.

"I SAY WE ATTACK THEM!" yelled Ron suddenly. Everyone glared at him.

"SHUT UP!" they all roared. He turned red and hid in his corner again.

"Now where were we?" Hermione said.

"WE WANT TO GO HOME!" shouted all the strange creatures in Ron's kitchen.

"WE WANT YOU TO GO HOME!" shouted Harry and Hermione.

"Yeah!" called Ron quietly. Harry and Hermione both glared at him.

"ANYWAY, we're not allowed to do magic outside of school, so how're we going to get these - people - home, Harry?" Hermione asked.

"OH MY GOD, STOP DROPPING THROUGH MY CEILING!!!!!!" Ron roared, leaping to his feet as some girls suddenly dropped through his ceiling.

One was about Tidus's height, maybe shorter, with a skimpy top, a long skirt, and trailing sleeves. Her brown hair was shoulder length and she had one green eye and one blue eye.

She gasped when she saw Tidus.

Tidus's face lit up. "YUNA!" he yelled happily, coming forward.

She slapped him. "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?" she demanded. "SOME POOR LITTLE KID IN AFRICA IS GETTING HIS ONLY TIME ON A PLAYSTATION AND WHAT DO YOU DO IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME?" she roared. "YOU DISAPPEAR! THAT'S NOT UNTIL THE END!"

"Oh," said Tidus sheepishly. "Sorry."

"Come on! We have to go do some damage control!" she yelled, and grabbed his arm.

"How do we get back into the game?" Tidus asked. (Note: he IS a blond, people .)

"HOW SHOULD I KNOW?" Yuna screamed. "YOU WERE THE ONE WHO DISAPPEARED IN THE FIRST PLACE!"

"Oh," said Tidus sheepishly. "Sorry."

Hermione grabbed Harry's arm very tightly because suddenly -

"BLOODY HELL! WHERE ARE YOU ALL COMING FROM?!?!?!?!" Ron screamed as some more people dropped in through the ceiling.

The room was getting crowded.
