Chapter 8
They had checked where the contest was being held and discovered that they had a few hours to burn, so Andy suggested that they visit the falls. Everyone not from Middle-Earth agreed that that was a good idea.
"These waterfalls aren't that big," said Legolas. "The Falls of Anduin are much taller."
"Well," said Adrienne, "they are the largest falls in North America."
"Why is she licking the rocks?" asked Boromir, staring at Stephanie.
Stephanie stopped for a moment. "I came here when I was really young, and my parents say that I kept licking the rocks. I wanted to see if they actually taste good, and they do." She continued with her licking, everyone staring at her.
Everyone except Andy, that is. While everyone was distracted, he snuck up behind Boromir. Time to reenact the end of the first movie, he thought. And with that, he shoved Boromir over the cliff. Seeing him fall, Andy started laughing hysterically.
Everyone watched him fall down and down towards the rocks. Suddenly, the cheese that had fallen in the river jumped into the air and Boromir luckily hit that before the rocks.
Aragorn exploded. "Why did you do that?!?" he screamed at Andy. "He's the next-in-line-to-be-Steward-of-Gondor!"
"But—it—was—funny!" Andy gasped.
"Hey," Frodo interrupted, "how 'bout we jump down there and catch the cheesewheel back to Middle-Earth?"
"Good idea," said Katie.
"Actually," said Jill, "not a good idea. The rocks! It's a miracle she—I mean he—missed them! You might miss the cheese. And die."
"And," added Adrienne, "it's about time to go to the contest."
So they went back to downtown Niagra.
