*Frodo appears beside a wishing well*

Frodo: *throwing in a gold coin* I wish I have ten fingers………I wish I have ten fingers *chants continuously*

Then a finger magically appears where Gollum had bitten it off.

Frodo: Whooohoo! I have ten fingers now *does a little hobbit dance………complete with the chicken dance you saw at the movie – The Fellowship of The Ring*

Frodo counts his little fingers and smiles, looking at readers (that means YOU!)

Frodo: This is how I got my finger back. I've got TEN fingers. *counts* One………two………three………four………five………six………seven………eight………nine………ten………ELEVEN! Hah! Eleven fingers! *gives a confused look* Eh? Wait………where did that finger come from?

*Gollum comes in and bites extra finger off, smiles at readers and disappear into thin air*

Frodo: Okay so I've got ten fingers now. *looks at readers* Got that? The wishing well gave me my finger back  ^_^

* Author waves at readers ^_^ then jumps into the well*

Frodo: *looks around and sigh* Actually………*looks around again and talks super soft* the author forgot the tiny detail that I have nine fingers and created this silly story up. I'm glad she jumped into the freaky well. *smiles broadly*

Author: *pops out of well* Did someone call me? I thought I heard someone talking about me here *gives evil glances at Frodo*

Frodo: *gulps nervously* Huh? Really? Nobody was talking about you………

Author: Oh, okay. I thought I heard something. Nevermind then. Buh bye! *falls into well again*

The Fellowship Examination continues………

                Gandalf sat at his huge leather chair smoking his pipe. A little mouse passed by and falls unconscious because of the foul smoke emanating from the long pipe. Gandalf glanced over at the mouse and kicked it into the pile of mice that is already out cold and grumbled. He was currently in a hard task of marking the examination papers his guinea………*ahem*……… "research helpers" handed in earlier. He stared at Legolas' paper and practically tore his beard when he read the answers to each and every question.

Question 1: What does one plus one equal to?

Answer: This question is too easy. I bet you think I don't know how to answer this but the thing is I DO. The answer is ………well, I do not feel like answering such an easy question. Go ask the dwarf.

Question 2: What does two times two and then divided with two equal to?

Answer: Haha………this is so easy. Do you think you can confuse me by using two mathematical symbols there? I refuse to answer this. Go ask the dwarf instead.

Question 3: You want to buy a bar of candy that is worth 50 cents and you have one dollar in your pocket. What is the expected change you will get from the shopkeeper?

Answer: One thing Gandalf is that I don't buy candies. You know what? I got so many at home from my fan girls that I don't even have to go to a shop to buy them. And Gandalf, I have more than one dollar in my pocket. In fact I have so much you wouldn't believe me even if I told you. So ask the dwarf.

Question 4: What does ten plus one equals to?

Answer: Gandalf, I don't get you. Why are you asking me these silly questions? This is just too easy for my super intelligent brain that it doesn't even have to budge a single micrometer to answer. Well, not that my brain is going to move out of my skull or something. Ask dwarf.

Question 5: There are ten birds in a tree. A hunter shot one down. How many are left?

Answer: Are you questioning my ability to shoot an arrow? If so, then I absolutely refuse to answer this one. If I was the hunter, there won't be any left in the tree because I am the GREAT ELVEN ARCHER. The dwarf would willingly elaborate on that………I hope.

Question 6: There are ten persons in a bus. One got down and two got on the bus. Now how many people are there in the bus?

Answer: For your information, I do not know what a bus is and would not care to know what it is. Maybe if you ask a certain person who is short, broad, smelly, hairy, wields an axe and who won the orc killing contest by cheating, he would answer your even-a-two-year-old-could-answer question.

Question 7: Five thousand eight hundred and twenty three times zero equals to?

Answer: You don't scare me with your big numbers. I am NOT even a tinnie wincie bit scared of it. Haha………the dwarf might be. Ask him.

Question 8: A pie has eight slices. If Aragorn ate one, Boromir ate one, Frodo ate one and Gimli ate one, how many slices are left?

Answer: I think you missed someone there. I want to eat a slice of pie too. You're so stingy! I do not feel like answering this one. Go to the dwarf who ate a slice.

Question 9: Four persons are in a room. One went out. How many are left?

Answer: What are they doing in the room? Tell me and I'll answer your question. In the mean time ask the dwarf.

Question 10: What is twenty plus two?

Answer: A mathematical question. Thought I'd be trick, huh? Hope the dwarf got tricked………hehe………

                Gandalf couldn't believe that was Legolas' answers to his mathematics questions. He took a fluffy, pink pillow to cover his face and screamed into it. Feeling a whole lot better, he turned his attention to Aragorn's paper and almost choked on his smoke.
