After Gandalf climbed to the top of the steep steps in the Mines of Moria, he glanced around at the two diverging paths in front of him. With a frown and furrowing of the eyebrows, he reluctantly admitted "I have no memory of this place."

Several hours later, the rest of the Fellowship of the Ring sat in available spots, each doing their own thing to keep their minds occupied. Gandalf sat apart from the rest of the group, staring off into space, trying very hard to jog his memory of which path is the correct path to take.

"Merry!" whispered a brown-haired hobbit to his best friend.

"What?" inquired Merry as he sat on the cold stone floor, staring into space.

"I'm hungry!" answered back Peregrin Took.

"If we are to make our food last till we get to a place to restock our supplies, we can't spare food for you every time you say your hungry." replied Merry.

"But-"

"No. I'm sorry Pip. But you already have a large share of food at all the other times we stopped to eat."

Pippin glared at Merry but seeing that he couldn't change Merry's mind, he switched his gaze onto the floor, hoping a crack would appear if he glared at it hard enough.

After some time, while Frodo had joined Gandalf into a hushed conversation, Pippin looked up at Merry.

"Merry?" he whispered.

"What?" answered Merry as he looked upon the youngest member of the Fellowship.

"I'm bored." replied Pippin as his eyes pleaded Merry to rid him of his boredom.

"I don't have anything to give or entertain you, Pip."

"Oh." sighed a dejected hobbit as he sunk down a little to the ground.

But, after a minute of silence from the gathered Fellowship members, a whispered voice started singing.

"I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves. Everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves. I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves, and this is how it goes… I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves-"

Soon eyebrows from the gathered people started to twitch as everybody stopped what they were doing and started staring at Pippin.

"Um… Pip?" asked Merry cautiously as his eyes darted to the surrounding twitching people.

"-body's nerves... what?"

"Uh, I think maybe you should find something different to occupy yourself."

"Why?" asked Pippin, oblivious to the increasing murderous looks on everyone's faces.

"Because…um…because we all need a little variation of songs. Could you sing something else?" inquired Merry hopefully.

"Well…ok…" muttered Pippin as his face scrunched up slightly in concentration. What else to sing? "Ah!" examined Pippin, face lighting up as he remembered the lyrics to another song. "I know of another song you will all like!"

Without further ado, Pippin began to sing. "This is the song that never ends…yes it goes on and on my friends…"

Within a few seconds, Pippin had finished the song once and started repeating it over and over again.

Without another word, the rest of the Fellowship, save Merry, took up their various types of weapons and started inching towards the oblivious singing hobbit, careful not to make any type of noise in the process.

"…but they'll continue singing it forever just because this is the song that never ends…"

All Merry could do was bang his head over and over again on a nearby rock, muttering over and over again "Why? Why did I teach Pip those infernal songs! WHY?"


AN: There! Chapter three out. Once again, I really really really appreciate your reviews for last chapter. Not really sure if I succeeded in making this chapter seem longer than last chapter. It looked longer in Microsoft Word, but once uploaded onto Don't know. Special thanks to Legolas's Girl 9 and Riverfox237 for reviewing twice. School is about to start, don't really know if that is going to effect the once a week update. If it will, I'll inform all of you in the next update. Thanks again for reviewing.

Sugar-high pixie: I'm not really sure when Legolas saves a lot on hiscar insurance. Maybe when he annoys the person giving him the insurance so much that that person gives him a special discount on the promise that Legolas will never go near him again?
