Chapter 7: The Anti-Fangirl and the Crazy One

"So...how long have you been in here?"

"Couple of hours," Saphira said. Rick 'hum'ed and stared out the window again. "My sister is one of the Fangirls. I never actually got to be in the war because she just kind of shoved me in here before I even got the chance."

Rick nodded and kept staring at the window. "Is anyone else here?"

"7-Eleven workers are hiding upstairs."

"How long do you think we'll be in here?"

"A very long time"

"We've got balloons!"

"Water balloons?"

"No," Sam said, "regular balloons!"

Faramir blinked, and then thought for a moment. "Fill then up."

Sam smiled and led her 'troops' over to the water fountain.

"How're we doing?" Pippin asked as she walked over.

"We've got everything but one."

"What's that?"

"A plan."

Pippin sighed. "Don't worry, we've got it all figured out."

"I worry. We have no idea what's going on!"

"That's alright."

Faramir shook her head. There was no way she was going to get anything out of Pippin and she wasn't going to try anymore

Legolas then came over with the Legolas doll (which she declared 'mini-me'), humming some overly cheerful tune and making sure everyone was doing their job.

"Is she alright?" Sauron asked.

"She just knows what's coming," Eowyn said as she walked past.

"Yeah," Faramir muttered. "I wish the just of us did, too."

"I spy something that is wearing Orlando Bloom's face."

"Is it the one on the right?"

"No, the other one."

"Ah..."

Rick and Saphira had been playing 'I Spy' since the Fangirls were congregating outside the front door of 7-Eleven.

"You know, I wasn't supposed to be apart of this," Rick said.

"Then why are you?"

"Well, my co-workers thought it'd be funny if they dragged me down here."

"Where do you work?"

"Best Buy."

More silence followed this conversation as they kept staring out 7-Eleven.

"Do you think we'll be rescued?" Rick asked.

"Nope."

"Alright! Who gave Sam the caffeine?" Gandalf yelled. Everyone shifted uneasily in their place.

"Um...you said that caffeine sometimes calms down really hyper people?" Laura said hopefully.

Gandalf twitched as Sam screamed 'Wheee!' and jumped around in her jacket which a couple of people had made into a make-shift strait-jacket.

Arwen sighed and shook her head. She knew it had been a bad idea, but had anyone listened to her? No!

"What should we do?" Gimli asked.

Merry thought for a second, then grinned. "I have a plan."

Cue weird Potter Puppet Pals music.
