Stalking the Fellowship
Chapter 13
Galadriel let out a groan of disbelief, before whistling loudly. A large gold stallion came galloping towards her. She jumped onto the horse whilst it was in mid-stride, shouting "Noro lim gloranor, nora lim."
The horse quickly galloped off, Galadriel leaning over its neck, whispering words of encouragement as well as becoming more streamlined. They quickly gained on Orion and Mo, who was holding onto the mane for dear life.
"Dina!" Galadriel soothed trying to calm the horse down.
Five minutes later the horse had calmed down and Mo was chatting with Fran (Maddy was still trying to make Bree move faster then 1 mile a day). "I think I've gotten the best horse," Said Fran, good naturedly patting coco on the neck.
"That's because you have a proper horse! I have a wild one and well Maddy's-"
"-Doesn't constitute as a horse. I've seen snails move faster then that," Maddy said.
"Erm... where is Bree?" Mo asked.
"I tied him to the tree. He's eating all the Niphredil at the moment, at least I think they're Niphredil," Maddy paused, "No, they only grow in the center of Amroth and Valinor and we're not near there at the moment are we?"
"Er, no Maddy Amroth and Valinor are leagues away," said Mo, surprised that Maddy had asked that question at all.
"Thought so, so when are we leaving?"
"A day after they do I think."
"Yeah which is when?"
"January 12th or 22nd I can't remember,"
There was a shocked gasp, "Are you well?" Maddy gave them a withering look.
"You're leaving tomorrow," Said Galadriel.
They turned, "We have been here that long?" Fran frowned.
"Yes you have," Said Galadriel tersely, "Long enough."
"If you're going to be like that we'll leave!" Said Mo, "As we have clearly out warmed our welcome."
"Yes, tomorrow I will give you supplies," Galadriel walked off briskly.
"Galadriel looked really pissed," Said Mo.
I know, but I wasn't the only one ungrateful in her pick in horses," Said Maddy innocently.
"It wasn't my fault I couldn't control a wild horse," moaned Mo.
"Well I know her bad mood had nothing to do with me. I was teachers pet," Boasted Fran.
"For once in her life," Mo said slyly to Maddy.

"So when are we leaving?" asked Fran.
"This afternoon: The fellowship has already left, and Galadriel doesn't want us to fall behind."
"Don't you mean she wants us to get the hell out of her forest ASAP?" Replied Fran.
"That to!" Joked Maddy.
::Knock, knock, knock::
"Its probably one of the elf zombie's come to collect us. Got all your stuff?" Asked Mo
"Yep," Said Fran.
"Yep, including Galadriel's generous helping of Lembas Bread!" Sniggered Maddy,
"Come on then" Ordered Mo,

"You're stay here has certainly been an interesting one. In these troubled times it is joy to see such...such..." Said Galadriel finding words hard to come by.
"Determination to get close to Legolas?" Said Maddy beaming. Galadriel gave Maddy a piercing look, while Celeborn chuckled to himself, patting Galadriel's shoulder.
"Willingness to kill things?" Said Mo with an evil glint in her eyes.
"Stupidity?" Thought Fran out loud
"Exactly right Francesca," Continued Galadriel. Fran turned to Mo and Maddy beside her and struck her tongue out at them both. "Your horses, and pony are ready and waiting for you," Galadriel waved her slim hand behind the girls kneeling in front of her, and directed them to her cities gate. "Follow this river. It will take you back on to the road beside the river Anduin."
"Oh, yay! We'll be next to the fellowship sailing down the river!" Said Maddy.
"Not if you don't clear the forest by dawn, then you may be too far behind to meet the fellowship at the Argorath."
"You hear that Fran? We CAN'T be LATE!" shouted Mo.
"This is a whole other world. I may be early in Middle Earth but always late on Earth, or at home on our world," Said Fran sadly, "Besides Maddy's is the one who is going to be dragging behind, or should I say dragging her dead Pony behind us," added Fran.
"My pony is fat, not DEAD," Defended Maddy.
"Your pony is a walking heart attack," Said Fran, "If he collapses you're not riding with me."
"Well I'm not riding on buckaroo over there," Said Maddy pointing at Mo's Stallion Orion
"Well I am not complaining," Said Mo as she walked towards Orion.
A/n As predicted I failed my tests, well my chemistry anyway...::coughs:: I got 78 percent in my math test. Anyway reviews must be replied to...
Dark Born Drone: I assume you mean 'she'...?
Saeleth Tinuviel: It is worrying that you know that there was up to 107 chapters previously. I was trying to remember yesterday but I drew a blank. It's scary when your readers now more about the story than the authors...
Lady Glory: I am confused...is our story boring you or do you wish to write about Monkeys...
Flaming Faerie Fantasies: Both Mo and I are slightly confused by your review... 'troll'? What do you mean? And this story has never been taken seriously by any of us. If it was we wouldn't take the mick out of our selves nearly as much as we do...there has only been one occasion when one of us ::coughs::Mo::coughs:: has downright refused to let us do something to her...but she relented after persistent begging...
