Ellinde: We couldn't think of a title for this chapter

Larien: So it gets to be known as the title-less chapter chapter.

Ellinde: Okay...so I'm actually going to start typing now.


Dawn broke and Amber was the first awake...actually she never really went to sleep, and apparently neither did Legolas. Amber went about picking up camp and waking people up. Much to her surprise, Gandalf sleeps with his eyes open, so when she went to wake him it scared her.

"AHH! HOLY CRAP!" yelped Amber biting her lip "Ow..."

"Good morning dear. My lady, your lip appears to be bleeding." Said Gandalf pleasantly

"Yeah...I know." Said Amber trying to get her lip to stop bleeding.

Legolas went around and woke everyone else up. Every one that is, except for Ave.

"Larien...Larien! LARIEN! Wake up!" He ended up shouting. Avenley lovingly kicked him really hard from under her blankets.

"Don't even bother Legolas. It's too early. Ave never wakes up until at least eleven." Said Amber matter-of-factly.

"Eleven?" said Legolas incredulously

"Yes. That or she's awake and is just listening to our conversation. Avenley..." said Amber in a sing-songing voice "Noses! Diet-Coke and Noses!"

At this Avenley began cracking up insanely.

"Darn you Amber!"


Flashback and again...true story

You know of the potency of diet-coke...and now here comes another scary sad but true story. It was oh...say one in the morning and Amber and Ave were over at Avenley's house when they decided to go downstairs and watch Ave's big screen t.v. No seriously. This thing is honestly the size of a movie screen. So anyway we put in the Two Towers. Avenley had just finished drinking oh, six, seven, maybe eight diet-cokes to keep herself awake. Not good. So the part with Treebeard comes one and Ave says... "Hey! He's got a HUGE NOSE! It's the giant SHNOZZ!" This continued throughout the rest of the movie. Not even Christopher Lee was spared, he even got the extra "WOW! He has a weird nose AND bad teeth!" The saddest part about this whole thing, was that this occurred before the Fourth of July incident, and we never even realized it was the diet-coke.


"Dang it! I was perfectly fine until you said that." Said Avenley sitting up.

"How's your head?" asked Legolas.

"Tender. But I'll live." Replied Ave.

"Yeah. That's what you said when you hit your head." Retorted Amber

"Oh shut up."

"Is someone tired? Did someone wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" said Amber

"Is someone going to die if they don't stop talking?"

Amber grinned and went over to talk to the Hobbits.

"Larien, you really ought to be nicer to her." Said Legolas chidingly.

Ave just sniffed indignantly.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Larien: Hold it! Hold everything!

Ellinde: What's wrong?

Larien: I can't sniff indignantly!

Ellinde: Why ever not?
Larien: Because! That was the last chapter!

Ellinde: Oh...fine them. Ahem.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Ave does not sniff indignantly, but instead smiles happily and then falls over dead.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Larien: Hey now!

Ellinde: (Cackles maniacally)

Larien: Give me the keyboard!

Ellinde: Hey! You were the one who wanted me to change it! It's an improvement in my opinion.

Larien: Give me the bloody keyboard! OR SO HELP ME!

Ellinde: Okay...okay.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Avenley does not sniff indignantly and does not fall over dead, but instead stares off into space.

"We don't really mean it."

"Still Larien. It isn't very polite."

"Fine..." sighed Avenley. Legolas stood up and went to go and talk to Aragorn.

Gandalf cleared his throat.

"It is now time to decide what path we take to get to Mordor. It might be faster to go through the Gap of Rohan..."

"And then to Gondor, of course?" said Boromir hopefully.

"No Boromir. We will not be going to Minas Tirith. The problem lies in going up the mountains..."

"Why don't we just go through the mountains Gandalf? My cousin Balin would show us a marvelous time!" said Gimli enthusiastically.

"No Gimli! No I would never do that. Not now and not ever. I have been through those mines only once, and I would not put this company through such an ordeal." Said Gandalf

Gimli hung his head sadly.

"Those mines are not what they used to be. You must understand Gimli." Said Gandalf not unkindly

"I-I understand Gandalf." Said Gimli

"I believe we ought to go through the Gap of Rohan, it should be the swiftest path and we will avoid having to go over the mountains." Said Gandalf.

"If we are to go that way, I suggest we leave now or we wont reach cover until night fall." Said Aragorn being the analytical person that he is.

"Quite right Aragorn, quite right."

At this everyone began to amorously pack up camp. Once that was done they all grabbed something to carry on their backs. They set out going at a rather quick pace. It was hard for Amber and Ave because they knew that this company would not be going through the Gap. They would end up going through Moria after all, and there, there Gandalf Greyhame would perish. It was a horrible thought, one that weighed on them for hours. BUT ON THE UPSIDE OF THINGS I JUST SAVED A LOT OF MONEY ON MY CAR INSURANCE BY SWITCHING TO GEICO! cough) right. So anyway, around one or two they stopped for lunch. After Lunch Gandalf allowed everyone a bit of time for themselves. During this time Avenley decided to keep her promise to the hobbits by teaching them to wrestle. Legolas disagreed strongly with this.

"I beg of thee Larien please don't! It isn't very lady like."

"Well I'm not a lady am I?"

"You are a princess and almost old enough to be a woman! Show some decency!"

"You didn't seem to mind before you knew I was your sister." Said Avenley

"You are so...so..." stuttered Legolas

"Amazing? Beautiful? I know." Said Avenley lightly

"Utterly annoying." Was Legolas's flat reply. "Please Larien! I don't want you getting hurt. Need I remind you that you are not completely well yet." Said Legolas exasperatedly.

"Well neither is Frodo and he's doing more than anyone." whispered Avenley. Legolas gave Ave a hard look, and stared at her for a few moments. He then threw his hands into the air and sighed heavily.

"Fine Larien. Fine. Do as you wish. Go knock your head off. See if I give you a second glance."

Avenley flashed a huge grin and then ran off to join Pip, Merry, Sam and Frodo. After a while Boromir took it to mind to teach the hobbits a bit of sword play. Aragorn later decided to join them. In the end both Aragorn and Boromir ended up on the ground, because of a very forceful tackle by the hobbits.

"AHH! Help! Enough! Please!" Laughed Aragorn heartily.

"Indeed! Lady Avenley has taught you well." Said Boromir who too, was laughing.

During all of this Amber and Legolas were talking about what and idiot Ave can be.

"She has no regard for herself or her well being." Said Legolas bitterly.

"Yes, she can be rather stubborn at times." Said Amber

"By Eru! One day she's just going to walk off the edge of a cliff." Said Legolas.

"No. She'll probably just fall and hit her head again." Said Amber a bit too pleasantly

"Oh please don't say that." Said Legolas putting his head in his hands

"Hey. I calls them as I sees them."

"You have the gift of foresight?" said Legolas in a worried tone

"No Legolas! Not that I know of at least."

"That's a relief." Sighed Legolas

At that moment Gimli walked over, and after exchanging some hateful glances with Legolas, went over to talk to Gandalf who was sitting close by.

"Gandalf...what is that strange black cloud that is moving so swiftly?" he asked

"What?" said Gandalf worried

"That's no ordinary cloud." Said Boromir

"Creabain from Dunland!" shouted Legolas

"Everyone get down!" added Aragorn

"Spies of Sauruman." Muttered Gandalf after they had all dropped low to the ground. Everyone stayed down barely daring to move for fear of being seen.

"I am sure that they have alerted Sauruman as to our position...I fear it will no longer be safe to go through the Gap. We will have to go up the mountains." Said Gandalf solemnly

"How is that any safer?" said Boromir despairingly

"At least we wouldn't have Uruks after us." Said Aragorn calmly

"Uruks? ...You mean Orcs." Asked Boromir

"No...never mind Boromir."

"I still think we should go through the mountain." Muttered Gimli

"I have to agree with Aragorn and Gandalf on this matter." Said Legolas

"Enough of this! We are going up the mountain and that's that...if of course, the Ring bearer is alright with such a decision." Said Gandalf exasperatingly

Frodo nodded his head

"Then up the mountain it is."


Larien: Ha! I knew it! I knew they'd go up the mountains. I must have the gift of foresight!"

Ellinde: Duh you knew it. You've read the books, seen the movies, and we are writing this.

Larien: Nuh uh! I do have the gift of foresight!

Ellinde: You know I'm right.

Larien: Nope nope.

Ellinde: Readers when you review please decide who is right. Me or Larien. Just remember, I give you cookies.

Larien: Yes but they taste crappy so you love me more

Ellinde: Do not!

Larien: Do so!

(computer crashes)

Ellinde and Larien: NOOOOOOOO!
