Chapter 3

America 2004

It was about 5:00 in the morning when Lori was allowed to go back to regular activities. She walked into the cabin where everyone was sleeping and decided that they were going to be the best squad that was ever at that school. In order to do that she had to give them an early start. She went over to the CD player and put in Sum 41. What would be a good song, she thought. She thought about it for a few seconds and picked Heart Attack. She thought it was the right song for the occasion. She turned it up full blast.

Remember when there was nothing else to do,
But lie in bed and
Wonder how it was always up to you and no one else and
Early mornings laid by warnings
What's the point of the alarm that I'm ignoring?
It's even raining
'm not complaining, but waking up is hard to do so

Turn my head and back to bed with no delay
Can't be bothered by the phone this time today
Waking up in the morning doesn't even start 'till two
Forget reality, waking up is hard to do.

By this time everyone was up. They all thought that rock band had taken the school. Chris was in a bad mood and said,

"What gives? It is five in the morning."

"What were you expecting, five in the afternoon. We are starting a new schedule today. It is called wake up early in the morning, more free time in the afternoon," said Lori now using her new command. She like this power, she knows that if she goes overboard with her power, they will do what they did to T.

"We are going to be the absolute best squad in this school. I will not accept any less than your very best! Does everyone understand that?!" everyone nodded and Lori went on, "The new schedule will be:

(AM)
5:00- Get up, make bed, everything you do to get ready in the morning.
5:30- ten times around the obstacle coarse and two miles.
7:00 – breakfast
8:00- Classes.

(PM)
4:00- homework.
6:00- FREE TIME."

Everyone looked at her like she was crazy. They thought she was kidding.

"Oh, I'll also be doing everything on this schedule," everyone was still looking at Lori with blank stares, "You might want to start getting ready...NOW!"

Lori went outside to wait for the rest of the squad. The obstacle coarse went up a ten-foot wall, swing across a three-foot mud pit, walk across a board that was three-½ foot tall, through the wooded area, army crawl through sand, and repeat. When everyone was outside with all of their equipment on, they started. Lori went first (she always went first because she was the fastest).

By the time she was done with her seventh lap she saw two figures on the ground. Oh no, she thought, one of the rookies fell. She looked closer at them; these aren't rookies, much less kids! She slowly sent over to the two figures until she could see the faces. They look so familiar! Where have I seen them before? She drifted off in her thought that a few seconds one of the had woken up!

"Where in Vailar am I?" he was very confused.

Lori took out her Bowie knife that she had in her boot and under her pants and looked at him.

"I think I'll as the questions. Number one, who are you and can you be trusted?" asked Lori.

The man had pointy ear, which Lori knew was unnatural, he was dressed in a sort of Lord of the Rings type clothing, carried an incredible bow and two carved knives, and neatly done long blond hair. The man that was laying beside him look the same, except for the clothes and shape of the face, his face was more oval shaped.

"How do I know that you can not be trusted? I will tell you that I'm loyal to the King of Mirkwood," he said as he took out his two knives.

"Okay, quit playing this LotR game with me. It won't work," she was really annoyed that he hadn't given her a straight answer for the past two seconds that they have been there.

"What game. My father is known though out all of Middle Earth," he said with a very serious look upon his face. At this point Lori knew that Legolas wasn't kidding.

"So you're, like, Legolas Greenleaf?"

"How did you know my name?" he asked. The other elf was getting up wondering where he was too.

"Let me see here, you said that you said your father is know through out Middle Earth it kind of gives it away," explained Lori.

Whit saw Lori talking to this guy and had wondered who he was. She thought the same thing that Lori had thought: two rookies fell, but, like Lori, she was wrong.

"Lori, who is that," she asked looking at Legolas and then looking at Haldir, "and that?"

"So Lori is your name," said Legolas.

"Great job genius," she said to Whit, "Go tell the rest of the squad to go in and go back to sleep, they've done enough today."

Whit went back to tell the rest of the squad and then she came back.

"Lori, why are you holding that huge knife? And why is he holding two big knives?" asked Whit

The other Elf was getting off of the ground and asked,

"What is a child like you doing in those clothes?" he asked looking at Whit, "And Legolas, why is she holding that knife?" looking at Lori.

"Did you just call me child," asked Whit.

"If you lower your weapon I will lower mine," said Legolas. Lori lowered her weapon, so did Legolas.

"Who is she?" asked Legolas.

"This is Co-Captain Whitney. Whit for short. Who is that?" asked Lori looking at Haldir.

"This is Haldir, Marchwarden of Lorien," said Legolas.

Lori saw Whit looking at Haldir, and Haldir looking at Whit. This is soooo weird! Whit is looking at this Haldir guy like she is in love with him! She hasn't even said a word to him and yet she is in love. Can this get any worse? Lori thought. I saw that Legolas noticed too. He gave me the same look I gave him when I saw the both of them.

"SHALL we go in?" said Lori.

"Huh, what, oh, yes," said Whit.

"But we have to find a way to disguise them," said Lori. They all thought about it for a moment and then Lori said,

"Just run as fast as you can behind me." They all agreed to it and Lori started running out of the forest, followed by Legolas, then Haldir, then Whit.
