I never knew getting reviews would be so thrilling! Alrighty, here is chapter DOS!
---------------------------------------------------------------
When I woke up, I was in the strangest place. It was a grassy clearing, surrounded by trees. Birds were chirping all around me. It was so peaceful! I also realized that I didn't feel sick, which was a plus.
"Okay, I'm definitely not at school anymore. But I'm not complaining," I grinned to myself.
As much as I wanted to stay in this beautiful place, I figured I should walk around a bit, and try to find a town. They'd help me get back home, and at least I'd know where I was. As I continued to walk, I heard some folks chatting happily.
"Yes! Civilization!"
From the sound of it, they were just on the other side of the bush. So, of course, I walked through it.
It was a group of 3 extremely short people talking together, and as soon as they saw me, they stopped dead.
"DEAR LORD!" screamed a woman, and she fell to the ground with a light thud.
"CAMELLIA!? CAMELLIA!!" yelled a man, who must've been her husband.
"Who are you!? You shouldn't be here!" said the other man to me.
"I..erm...I'm sorry?"
I looked at these people more closely...they looked so familiar..curly hair, soft faces, rustic-looking clothes....and hairy feet.
"Oh my God....you're all HOBBITS!!" I said, amazed.
"Well, yes, it doesn't take a genius to see that. And what are you doing here? Big folks don't belong in the Shire. And you scared us half to death! Why are you here?"
The other man, who was busy trying to wake up his wife glared at me.
"I'm sorry...I was lost..uh..my name's Lynn, what's yours?" I held out my hand for him to shake.
The dude looked at me like I was crazy. Reluctantly, he grabbed my hand and shook it.
"I'm Bingo.." I snorted, but he didn't seem to notice. "And this is Drob Chubb and his wife Camellia."
"Nice to meet you all." I answered sweetly. Suddenly, I realized something. I was in the Shire! Frodo was here! And Merry and Pippin and Sam!
"Er...Lynn? Are you alright?" asked Bingo. I realized I had been staring off into space, and I was practically drooling. But I had thought of the most brilliant plan...
"Yes, I'm fine. Hey, are we anywhere near Hobbiton? I have some business with Frodo Baggins, but I'm not sure where he lives."
"We're in Hobbiton, as a matter of fact. I suppose I can show you where he lives..follow me. Drob? Can you handle things for a bit? If I see someone, I'll tell them you're up here and in need of assistance.."
Drob seemed a little P-oed, but then again, I would be too if my spouse had just fainted because of some random stranger scaring the hell out of them.
"Wait..I think she's just coming to..Camellia? Camellia, darling, can you hear me?"
She muttered a "What?", rubbed her eyes, and opened them. Her eyes fell on me, she screamed again, and fainted.
"Sorry...am I that hideous?"
Drob was more than a little p-oed this time. "You're human! She's never seen someone like you! Now leave, before she wakes up again!"
Bingo said, "Come on, I'll take you to Mister Baggins," and led me through the bushes.
He seemed like a nice guy, if not a little uptight, but hey, he was a hobbit, and hobbits are awesome. After we got through the bushes, he led me down a grassy hill, over a wooden fence, up another grassy hill, and onto a dirt trail. We passed a lot of hobbit holes along the path. They were really a lovely site...big mounds of dirt sticking about 4 feet above the ground, covered with roofs of grass, and with a big, round door in the middle of the front. We followed this trail for about 5 minutes, until it curved and I saw a very large hobbit hole, one that was nicer than all of the others. A sign on the door read 'Bag End'.
"Thank you very much, Bingo, I couldn't of found it without you," I said in a voice full of gratitude.
"Yes, of course. Good day, Miss Lynn." With that, Bingo walked off in the direction of Drob and Camellia.
I strode on up to the round, green, hobbit door, and held up a fist to knock. But then a thought crossed my mind. What was I going to say? How would I explain just showing up at his door? Then my mind wandered to the Quest...did he already destroy the ring? Was he off to the Undying Lands? Ah, whatever. I decided to just wing it, and knocked loudly 3 times.
