This is the LAST chapter! That's so sad, in my opinion! :'( yeah, I have trouble when things end. Thats why ROTK makes me cry. And yeah, I did cut out the Scouring of the Shire...and ive decided not to put it in. Im just too lazy, lol. So, I hope you enjoy it. Once again, thank you to everyone who has reviewed, and thanks especcially to Karategurl, who has, as ive said, given me most the ideas for the story. And the part at the Harbors, does have some direct stuff from the book. And I wrote that part long before I wrote the rest of this chapter....I hope you like it.Please Review.
Thanx

"It's good to be home." Sam said.
"Home." TC turned to MC. "You know what I miss most about home?"
"What?" MC asked, guessing in her head what the answer was.
"Mountain Dew." TC sighed in longing. MC had guessed correctly.
"Of course." MC muttered.
"What's Mountain Dew?" Merry asked.
"The best consumable thing ever created." TC answered, a sad look crossing her face.
"Better than mushrooms?"
"Much!"
"Better than pipeweed, or ale?" Pippin asked.
"Yes."
Merry and Pippin sat in awe of the thought. Surely, such a substance did not exist.
"You lie!" Merry accused.
"Do not!" TC defended herself.
"Then prove it! Let me have some of this...Mountain Dew, and I shall be the judge."
"Well...it, um...doesnt quite exist yet." TC told Merry sheepishly.
"Aha! You DO lie!" Merry smiled proudly.
"It will exist in about...another 500 years!" MC added cheerfully.

They reached Hobbiton, where Frodo, Sam, TC, and MC each went to their own separate hobbitholes. Merry started following MC and TC, but Pippin stopped him.
"Merry, no more stalking." Pippin said. Then, Pippin and Merry went off to their homes.
"Well, uh, what now?" TC asked, once they were inside their hobbithole. She looked at MC expectantly.
"That, uh...was an interesting experience." MC said, nodding at her own words.
"Yes," TC agreed, looking down at the floor with wide, unblinking eyes. "Yes it was." TC paused and looked up. "So what now?"
"I can't believe it's over!" MC fondled her sword. "Didn't really want it to end..."
"You're avoiding the question, MC." TC snapped. "We are stuck in a time that doesn't exist, as creatures that don't exist!"
"Well, what are we supposed to do about that?"
"What CAN we do about it?"
"Nothing!"
"But we have to do something!"
"Why do you want to leave here so bad, anyways?"
"I want to go HOME!" TC said sadly. After a few minutes of silence, she continued: "But it's past dark now, and I'm tired, so I'm going to bed!" TC stormed off to her room.
"Well...fine!" With that, MC walked to her room.

In the middle of the night, someone knocked on their door. Both girls got up and answered it, to find Merry and Pippin, looking rather upset.
"What?" TC demanded.
"Follow us!" Merry said.
"Now there's a change." MC muttered to TC as Merry and Pippin hopped onto their ponies. MC quickly jumped onto the back of Pippin's pony, leaving TC to ride with Merry.
"What's going on?" MC asked as they started going towards their unknown destination.
There came no answer, and there was silence until they reached the Harbors, where Frodo, Sam, Gandalf, Bilbo, Elrond, Galadriel, and many other elves were.
"You tried to give us the slip before, and failed, Frodo." Pippin laughed through his tears. "This time you have nearly succeeded, but you've failed again. It wasn't Sam who gave you away this time, but Gandalf."
"Yes," said Gandalf. "I figured it better for a group to ride back, than Sam alone. Here, at last, dear friends, on the shores of the sea comes the end of our fellowship in Middle Earth. Go in peace."
Frodo then kissed the other hobbits, even TC and MC. He then boarded the ship, and it slowly slipped away. The light of the glass of Galadriel that Frodo had glimmered and was lost.
The four hobbits sat there on their mounts for a long while, crying. Finally they turned and rode back to their homes.
Pippin and Merry rode with MC and TC to their home--the very hobbit hole they had come through when they landed in Hobbiton.
When the two girls opened the door, they were surprised. It no longer revealed a hobbit-hole, but MC's house.
"I guess it's time for us to go back." TC stated, sadly.
"Do you have to?" Merry asked. "We've already said goodbye to Frodo tonight."
"It looks like we have to." MC told him. MC hugged Merry one last time, as did TC with Pippin. Slowly they let go and walked into the house. MC began closing the door.
"WAIT!"
