All the elves, hobbits, dwarves, men and every other creature in the schoolyard ran inside, not to be late.
Merry kissed his father good bye, grabbed Pippin's hand, and went through the hobbit entrance: a round, green door on the school that was made for hobbits only.
Legolas quietly followed his sister, being very shy. Legolas only knew the twins, Estel and Arwen and was nervous that no one else would like him. Sernaer also knew Legolas, and when he came to see Illiendal he pat Legolas on his head.
"Have fun at school Legolas." Sernaer smiled. Legolas watched Sernaer try and kiss his sister, which of course Legolas would tell his father and then start asking his father many annoying questions, but Illiendal stopped him and without saying anything pointed to the little elfling who sat on the cement, looking up and watching as if it was a movie.
Sernaer seemed to understand, so Illiendal took Legolas by his wrist and dragged him inside the school.
Elladan, Elrohir, Arwen and Estel had already been taken inside by Glorfindel, and running around his classroom knocking things over. Eventually Glorfindel got tired of yelling at them so sent them to the great hall were everyone was getting their teachers.
"Seventh years, please come with me!" Glorfindel yelled. Glorfindel taught homeroom to the seventh years, and he also had a music class.
A kid named Sauron, he was a big kid, taller than Glorfindel at any rate, came with Glorfindel. So did Sauron's buddy, Morgoth (who preferred being called Meklor). Glorfindel was quite scared of Morgoth when Morgoth said he had a pet Balrog.
"First years, come here!" Gandalf called. All the hobbits jumped up (for they had been sitting on a bench.
"Gandalf! Gandalf! Gandalf! Gandalf!" They all sang in joy, running over to the wizard. Gandalf smiled and pat each hobbit on his or her head.
"Go on Legolas, you get to go with Mister Gandalf." Illiendal whispered, giving her brother a little nudge.
"I-I don't want to leave you, Illiendal... Can't you come too?"
"No. Legolas, I have to go with Erestor, you know that!"
"That's mister Erestor." Erestor said, putting a hand on Illiendal and Sernaer's shoulders.
"Come on you two." Erestor ordered, smiling at Legolas. Illiendal gave Legolas a kiss on his cheek and went with Sernaer over to where their classmates waited for Erestor.
"Hi Legolas. You remember me, from Rivendell?" Erestor asked. Legolas smiled.
"Yes. You where chasing Glorfindel around Elrond's house with a frying pan."
Erestor blushed slightly.
"Yes I was... Now, don't you want to go with Gandalf?"
"I don't know. It looks scary."
"Gandalf is not scary! You know Gandalf, don't you?"
"Yes. I met him in Rivendell. And some times Ada tells me about him." Legolas said.
"Come on then. It will be fun. And you are already friends with Estel, Elladan and Elrohir, and they are all in Gandalf's class, as well as Arwen! Go say hello to them." Erestor smiled as Legolas went over to the twins and said hello.
Faramir stood beside Gandalf, clutching his robes.
"Mister Gandalf-
"You only need to call me Gandalf, little Faramir."
"What if Boromir does not come? What if he fell off his pony?" Faramir asked.
At that moment, a muddy Boromir came running into the hall and stood beside Faramir.
"What happened to you, mister Boromir?" Gandalf asked.
"I fell off my pony."
"You're father is teaching here, Boromir, so you can go ask him for a change of cloths. We will be in the classroom." Gandalf smiled.
"Come on little ones. We will be going to class."
Frodo took one of Gandalf's hands and they walked to the first classroom in the hall.
"Everyone take a seat. Elflings please sit near the back of the class, and hobbits in the front." Gandalf said. The seats (which were attached to desks) were in four rows with ten in each row, Gandalf's desk at the very front and not in the rows.
Legolas went in the second to last row, in between Elladan and Estel. Elrohir sat beside Elladan, and Arwen beside Estel.
Sam sat beside Frodo, at the end of the first row. Merry was beside Pippin and Pippin was on the other side of Frodo.
When everyone was seated, Gandalf wrote his name on the chalkboard.
"Hello, class. My name is Gandalf."
"Did you bring fireworks, Gandalf?" Frodo asked.
"If you wish to speak raise your hand."
Frodo raised his hand.
"Yes, Mister Baggins?"
"Did you bring fireworks?"
"Yes, but we will only launch them at recess... For now, here are your schedules... Who would like to pass these out?" Gandalf asked. Before anyone could raise his or her hand, an elfling came into the classroom.
"I'm sorry Gandalf, sir... My baby brother would not stop crying... so my ada had to feed him... and so I'm late." The little elfling looked as shy and scared just like Legolas.
"It's alright Haldir. Here, pass these out on every desk and then take a seat. There is one empty desk behind Legolas."
Haldir passed out the schedules to everyone, and then took a seat a looked at the schedule:
Monday------------- Tuesday----------- Wednesday ------Thursday
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gandalf - Elvish - Denethor - English - Celeborn - Math - Galadriel - Arts
Friday----------
Glorfindel - Music"So, today you will all have elvish, with me. But first, since it is your first day of school, I will explain this school even more... Are there any questions you would like answered?" Gandalf asked. Elladan raised his hand.
"Yes, Elrohir?"
"It's Elladan."
"My apologies..."
"Is there a snack time?"
"Yes, at recess."
Elrohir raised his hand.
"Is there a lunch time?"
"Yes, Elrohir."
Since their where no more questions, Gandalf began to speak.
"Now, there is no eating inside, because poor Janitor Gollum will not enjoy cleaning up spills." Gandalf said. "And if you misbehave you will be sent to Janitor Gollum for a detention, or to the principal Isildur." Gandalf said. "And be polite with lunch lady Treebeard."
Legolas raised his hand.
"Yes, Legolas?"
"Isn't Treebeard a boy tree?"
"Yes, but at this school whoever works in the lunch room is considered a lunch lady."
Many of the children giggled.
"Now, it is recess time. Everyone take out your snacks and follow me outside to the schoolyard. No leaving the schoolyard during recess time!" Gandalf smiled. All the children followed him happily.
To be continued...
InterstellarHobbit: Yes, they are all in the same grade... Only some characters are in higher grades, like Sauron, but that's for a reason.
Petals: I'm glad you fed Goldy the Goldfish. We don't want Goldy to die, do we? Then there might be a Goldfish shortage or something worse! You could be called a murderer, and you may just go as crazy as Gollum and kill Deagol. Poor Deagol.
I've been having trouble uploading things, so that's why there's been such a lack of updates here. But I will still be updating, don't you worry about that! And, anything underlined means that they are very modern, such as the frying pan, school bus and chalk board.
