Nine figures trudged onwards on the rocky ground to get to the entrance to Moria. A seemly old man with a pointy hat led the weary group as they at last stopped in front of a large pond. The Fellowship of the Ring had finally reached the entrance. Now to get it open…

Gandalf stepped up to a section in the walls of Moria. Looking and feeling around. Suddenly, his face lit up into a smile.

"Well, let's see. Ithildin. It mirrors only starlight and moonlight."

He turned around and looked at the sky. Clouds moved aside and the full moon appeared, shining silverish blue against the night sky. A faint outline of a door appeared, then strengthened in light and the inside carvings were also revealed.

Gandalf stepped back to admire the now visible doorway, smiling in satisfaction, while the rest of the Fellowship stared on in awe and wonder.

"It reads: The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria. Speak, friend, and enter." said the Grey Wizard as he pointed out the text with his staff.

"What do you suppose that means?" asked Merry.

"Oh it's quite simple. If you're a friend, speak the password, and the door will open." Gandalf said as he pointed his staff at the door. "Annon Edhellon edro hi ammen!"

All nine members of the Fellowship waited. Nothing happened. Frowning slightly, Gandalf pointed his staff at the door again.

"Ando Eldarinwa a lasta quenttanya, Fenda Casarinwa!"

"Nothing's happening." said Pippin, unaware of the danger he was in from Gandalf.

Gandalf started pushing at the stone door. When the wall wouldn't budge, the wise Istar kicked the door in frustration. From the pain that suddenly appeared on his face, everyone knew that he had just hurt his foot badly. Grumbling softly, Gandalf started banging his staff at the stone wall, cursing with each crack of wood on stone.

"Uh, Gandalf? I don't really think--" started Frodo as he glanced at his friend in concern.

SNAP! Gandalf stopped trying to attack the stone wall as he stared at his now broken staff in horror.

Several hours later, all members of the Fellowship have sat down and various places in front of the Wall of Moria. Frodo sat on a rock beside the tired and shocked Gandalf, offering him comfort.

Pippin and Merry started throwing rocks into the pond, until Aragorn stopped them. As waves started to form on the water's surface, Frodo's face suddenly lit up as he thought of the solution.

"It's a riddle." murmured Frodo softly. "Speak, "friend", and enter. Gandalf, what is the elvish word for friend?"

The mentally exhausted wizard not really thinking all too clearly, replied, "Moron."

The Door of Durin, miraculously opened.

"MORON? You Elves call your friends, morons?" sputtered Gimli as he started laughing hard.

Legolas started frowning. "We don't call our friends morons, dwarf." He glared at the wizard who was just entering into the Mines of Moria. "We call our friends, mellon or mellonin."

But Gimli would not listen. "MORON! HAHAHAHAHA!"

Legolas frowned as he started to sneak up to Mithrandir to try to attack him for messing up the prestigious Elven language.

Within five minutes, a fight had started, including all the members of the now broken Fellowship.

The creature hidden in the lake decided to not interfere as he watched in amusement as the Fellowship punched, scratched, kicked, pulled, hit, and did other fighting techniques to try to gain the upperhand.

This was amusing indeed.

AN: Darn! Looks like I was late again… Grr… Well, hope you enjoyed this chapter. Sorry if there were only small parts of it that were funny. Thanks Riverfox 237 and randomrohanfreak for at least reviewing last chapter. Sadly, it would seem that not a lot of people are bothering to review anymore. Thank you, thank you so much for taking the time to review. It really helped with all the reassurances and opinions. For all other readers, thanks anyways for reading. Is there any questions, comments, concerns, errors, etc that you want me to address or answer? Thanks again for everything. As for the reason why I was a bit late. I was a bit stuck on what person I would write about next so I was searching all three movies for any potential funny spots. Let's just say I had the plan out, but by that time, it was past midnight and I really had to go to bed or I'll fall asleep in class. Don't worry, I didn't spend that much time just to search for ideas. I was also procrastinating on my homework. Very sorry about that. But I guess procrastination just happens… All well…

PROUD TO BE A PROCRASTINATOR!

Ahem… I'll try to get the next chapter out on time though. Talk to all of ya next week!
