people * Fine I don't own anything *pouts * Not even Legolas.
Legolas: where am I?
Title: Changes for the better.
Author: blue eyes in the shadows.
Pairings: You have to ask? Well so far S/F but I might pair her off with some one else, heheheh just kidding, or am I? ;) P/M, but Merry might meet some one new, hmm or maybe not. ;) The rest are a closely guarded secret, guarded by Gollum.
Gollum: My precious pairings. *Evil laugh*
Setting: Beginning of the Lord of the Rings, the fellowship.
Summary: AU what if at the start of Lord of the rings the fellowship, almost half the fellowship were girls? What if your favourite character was a girl? What if they started to change things? Would it be for the better for the quest or the death of them all, especially when some start to fall in love?

'That's what Gaffer said,' muttered Marigold.
'That's terrible,' scowled Tolman Cotton, known as Tom to his friends.
'Maybe not,' muttered his sister Rosie.
'Why's that?' asked Marigold sharply.
'Well she's been following Mr Frodo round for years, when he's obviously not interested.'
'That's mean.'
'No it's true,' scowled Rosie. 'She should give some one else a chance.
'Like you?' said an angry voice. Sam stood glaring at them.
'Face the facts Sam. You're not the prettiest hobbit in the village; you're nowhere near his place in society. Mr Frodo will marry some one beautiful, charming, just like me.'
'That's uncalled for,' muttered Tom.
'You know I'm right. Sam will marry some nice dull hobbit lad. Why can't I have Mr Frodo?'
Sam opened her mouth, and then closed it again. 'You're right, Mr Frodo is special and Gaffer wants me married.'
'Then I'll marry you,' said Tom clearly.
A hurt looked passed across Marigold's eyes.
'No,' muttered Sam quickly, 'Thank you for being a good friend.'
'There must be some way,' muttered Marigold.
'I could leave, run away and find the elves,'
'That's crazy talk Sam,' whispered Marigold.
'Mr Bilbo's always on about them.'
'You daft lass, you haven't the heart to leave the shire.' Tom muttered shaking his head.
'And I want you to be bridesmaid at me and Mr Frodo's wedding any way.'
Sam felt her heart shatter.
Marigold scowled slamming her fist down, 'Come off it Rosie, only a fool would not realise Mr Frodo's mad about Sam. The looks they give each other have more love in, than I've ever seen in the shire and they're not even together. So get your heads out the clouds Rosie Cotton and open your eyes!'
Rosie glared at her, 'I don't care what you say. It's clear Sam's not going to get Mr Frodo.' She smirked, flouncing off.
'Sorry about my sister,' muttered Tom, 'She can be a bit stuck up.'
'She just has dreams like the rest of us,' said Sam sadly, walking away from them and down a stone hill.
'It's no use, Samantha Wise,' she muttered to herself, 'Gaffer's right, you need to get your head out the clouds,' she said miserably.
'A young pretty hobbit lass like yourself; shouldn't have such worry spread across her face,' said a wise voice.
'Mr Gandalf,' said Sam happily.
'Yes my child, who else would you expect?'
'Are you here for Mr Bilbo's party?'
He nodded thoughtfully. 'What is troubling you Samantha wise Gamgee?'
'Gaffer says I must marry, because that's all I'm fit for.' A look suddenly came across her face, 'Are you leaving soon Mr Gandalf, to see the elves?'
He nodded.
'Please let me come with you, I can't bear to stick around here and marry someone I don't love.'
'But then,' He replied wisely. 'You'll be away from everything you love.'
Tears came to Sam's eyes. 'I can't win can I Mr Gandalf?'
A sympathetic look came across his face. 'There us something rising, Samantha wise, something big. Do not marry for a few years and you may get to see what it is.'
'It doesn't sound good Mr Gandalf,' muttered Sam.
Gandalf nodded staring at Sam thoughtfully.
'Gandalf,' came a happy cry.
Sam turned a bright red colour spotting Frodo coming up the path.
'Ahh Frodo,' smiled Gandalf, 'you've startled an old friend from his thoughts.'
'I'm sorry but Uncle Bilbo needs to talk to you.' Frodo smiled warmly at Sam, making her go even more red.
Gandalf looked at the two, 'Why don't you keep young Samantha company, while I go see what's troubling your uncle.'
Frodo nodded watching Gandalf slowly walk away then turned to Sam.
'So Sam,' he said cheerfully, 'How are you?'
'I'm fine Mr Frodo, it's just my gaffer, bless his heart I know he means well, is giving me trouble.'
'About what?'
'Ohh it's nothing Mr Frodo. How are the party plans going?'
'Great, but I've not seen you in a while Sam.'
'That's my Gaffer; he said till I pick a husband there will be no gardening.'
'That's terrible Sam, I've missed you.'
She blushed, 'I've missed you as well, Mr Frodo.'
They both stood very close, and Frodo started to lean in till-
'Frodo!' came a happy cry; a female hobbit was suddenly hung round his neck.
Sam quickly moved out the way, as he fell to the ground.
'It's lovely to see you,' laughed the girl, with light curly brown hair.
'Are you okay Mr Frodo?' asked Sam.
The other girl got to her feet, 'Of course he is,' she smiled with playful brown eyes. 'I'm sorry I interrupted your romantic walk, I couldn't resist.'
'It wasn't a romantic walk.' Said Sam quickly.
'Sure,' said the girl sarcastically, 'I'm Merry Brandybuck.' She held out her hand. 'Frodo's favourite cousin.'
'I'm Samantha,' smiled Sam, to shy to take the hand.
'Nice name, but can I call you Sam?'
'Hello Merry,' muttered Frodo groaning, and pushing himself shakily from the ground, 'Where's your boyfriend?'
'I'm right here,' came a cheerful voice, as a hobbit jumped out a near by bush. He smiled at Sam holding out a hand, 'Pippin Took at you service, especially for Frodo's girlfriend.'
Sam smiled gently, 'He isn't-'
Pippin smiled and put his arm round Merry, 'You know its past late tea Frodo. Isn't it past your bedtime?'
'Late tea?' asked Sam in surprise, 'Gaffer's going to have my head, It was a pleasure meeting you Miss Merry, Mr Pippin.' She said quickly. 'Goodbye Mr Frodo,' she suddenly took off in a sprint down the path.
'She seemed nice,' smiled Merry.
Frodo didn't hear, because he was too busy watching Sam become a blue in the distance.'
'Looks like Frodo's in love.' Laughed Pippin.
Frodo shook his head, 'I'm not,'
'Sure,' said Merry sarcastically.
