Hey, 2nd chapter's up! I really want reviews so I know I'm not wasting my time! LoL!
!Pippin 4 Ever!…… Anyway, on with the story……
We," Pippin repeated in a soft voice. There was more fear in Merry's eyes than ever before and didn't know what to do. Merry swallowed hard and Pippin smiled at him…..the twisted smile a clown has.
"Pippin….please, don't do this. This isn't you. I'm your friend."
"Pippin doesn't need friends. He doesn't need anyone but me," said Pippin laughing.
"You? What are you talking about? Pippin, what's going on?" Merry asked confused. Merry knew something was up, but he didn't think it was a split personality. Was there someone else but Pippin in there. He feared now for Pippin more than he feared for himself. Pippin just laughed again, but a sad laugh. "Are you going to murder me….whoever you are?"
"Of course not. That wouldn't be very nice, I have other ideas." Pippin pointed the knife towards Merry and he went as limp as a fish. He went into his closet and took out some rope and tied Merry's hands above his head. He then went outside and came back with a pile full of dirt in his shirt and spread it in a circle with a star in it.
"What are you doing?" Merry yelled. Pippin ignored him and made the circle look absolutely perfect. A work of art. He then dragged Merry by his bound hands to the circle. "What's going on?" Merry cried again in dismay.
"We are going to be very close dear cousin, very close indeed. Just a little blakc magic," said Pippin grinning. He closed his eyes and started chanting. "Adanac Salogel Nrogara Reldif…..Adanac Salogel Nrogara Reld…." He was cut off by a sudden knock at the door.
"Merry! Meriadoc Brandybuck! Have you seen Pippin? He has seemed to of disappeared. Merry? Merry, are you in there!" cried Pippin's mother while knocking on the door.
"Shit!" Pippin said under his breath. Merry was about to yell for help to her, but Pippin put the blade to his throat and whispered, "Tell her I'm not here and that she has to leave or I'll cut your throat." Merry stared at Pippin and knew not to even try to test to see if he was bluffing.
"Pippin isn't here!" yelled Merry from his bedroom. "Sorry!" Merry crossed his fingers that she would leave. He didn't want to put anyone else in danger except himself.
"Oh dear! Well if you see your cousin please tell him to come home," she said hopelessly and left the hobbit hole, not knowing that Pippin was inside and that Merry was in danger as well. After she walked off, Pippin smiled happily.
"Good, now where were we? Oh yes. Adanac Salogel Nrogara Reldif…..Adan…" Merry cut him off.
"Wait! What about you? You can't kill me! People would find my body," said Merry. He knew how stupid he sounded, but he needed as much time as he could put together to stall him.
"Were not going to kill you, were going to put our bodies together in one. We will be together forever. Inseparable. The rock showed me our future," said Pippin, almost sounding like himself again.
"That rock is nothing but trouble! Pippin, listen to yourself. You sound crazy! We can't be together in one!" said Merry.
"But he have to be together, or we will be apart……and we will never see each other again and I'll be alone with him. I don't want to…I just can't do it! I won't go back in the dark!" said Pippin and dropped to his knees and started to cry. Merry still tied up tried to get up. He finally got up and stared at Pippin sulking on the floor.
"We won't be apart, I'll never leave you. I promise," said Merry quietly. Pippin looked at him, eyes full of tears. He wiped his face with his shirtsleeve and looked at the floor. Anger and sadness in his eyes.
"Yes you will, you'll leave me alone with him in the dark."
"With who?" Merry asked. It reminded him of Gollum, of how he had two personalities, but this was different. There wasn't another person, just another Pippin. A different side no one ever saw before. A side that he was obviously afraid of.
"Me." Merry stared Pippin right in the eye. He had never seen so much of him before. A hobbit that he thought he knew so well. His friend. His cousin. His Pippin. Pippin threw the knife down and put his head in his lap. Merry still tied was able to wiggle his hands free. He got up and walked over to Pippin and put his arm around him. "Oh Merry!"
"It's okay Pippin," Merry said quietly. Suddenly, Pippin pushed Merry off of him and on to the ground.
"Get away from me!" Pippin screamed. He picked up the knife and pointed it at Merry. "I'll kill you! I swear!" Suddenly, Pippin ran out of Merry's bedroom and out of the hobbit hole. Merry didn't know what to do. He stood still for a moment and thought about what has happening to Pip. He was falling apart on the inside and he had to stop him before he hurt someone….or worse……himself
Reviews! LoL! Hope you enjoyed chapter 2. I'll put up chapter 3 as soon as possible, I don't like to keep readers waiting!
