Chapter 16: Take My Hand

Author: Don't you wonder what happened to Faramir?

Narrator: Yeah all the time. Well today we are going to focus on him.

Author: Finally

It was a beautiful morning in Gondor. Faramir was in his room asleep. He then woke up in a daze. He then looked at his watch it was 11:00 am. " I slept really late.'' Faramir got up and stretched. He then looked for Eowyn. " Where could she possibly be?'' He them looked around for her. He went to every room and she wasn't there. He figured that that she went out for a walk. He stood proudly in his pink duckie pajamas.

He also noticed his Lord Of The Rings calendar. He walked up to it. It was today April 5th 2005. The squares for today and a couple of weeks wrote Las Vegas. Eowyn's picture was large on the first page. The picture made him fall into a trance. He was making out with it. Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door. "Faramir,'' shouted his servant. The servant busted through the door. He saw Faramir making out with the picture. " So is she a good kisser?'' He asked with a smirk on his face. Faramir stopped and turned around.

"Umm nothing happened,'' he stuttered. The servant chuckled and leaned against the door.

" I just wanted you to know that breakfast is ready…'' He noticed his pajamas and started to laugh.

" What is so funny?'' Faramir said crossly.

" Oh just your idea of sleeping wear would be pink bunnies or care bears or somewhat.''

Faramir hurled a pillow at him. The servant calmed down now.

" Have you seen Eowyn?''

" No, quite frankly she is gone.''

It came into Faramir's head that she is in Las Vegas. He also wondered why didn't she tell him. " I guess she forgot.'' Silly Faramir naïve and stupid how does Eowyn put up with this?

So the servant left. Faramir packed his bags and ate breakfast. He then stepped outside. It was a beautiful day. Music was playing and he started to sing: " Oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day! I got a beautiful feeling everything is going my way!''

" You suck now get off the stage!'' One guy yelled. He threw the rock at Faramir and he passed out. A couple of minutes later he awoke with a daze. "Oh my head.'' He then was ready to go. He was standing on the sidewalk hoping that someone would give him a ride. He waited and waited but no one would. Two minutes no one would still give him a ride. " Dam it, why won't anyone give me a ride?''

Two guys passed him by. They saw him and turned around. " Probably because your standing here naked stupid.'' One guy said.

Faramir looked down." Ahhh!'' He looked down again. " Ahhhh!'' " I forgot to get dressed, again.''

The guys walked off disgusted.

A minute later a truck drove to the sidewalk. " Why are you standing here naked?'' The driver asked very puzzled. Faramir ran back to his room got dressed and ran back out.

"So where are you heading to?''

"I am going to Las Vegas to get my wife!''

" Alright hop in.''

Faramir hopped in and the other guy was staring at him. Faramir winced.

But before they left the servant hopped in. " I am his servant.'' He huffed.

"Why is that guy staring at me?''

" Umm it is a long story."

The truck drove off. They sat in silence for a while.

"So what are your names?'' The driver said.

" My name is Faramir and here is my servant Claude.''

"I am Big Al and my friend Bugsy.''

Bugsy was painting on makeup and put on a ski mask. Big Al did the same.

" Is their a costume party?'' Faramir wanted to know.

"Yeah sure.'' Big Al was unsure of what to say.

Bugsy glared at Faramir and Claude suspiciously. Faramir and Claude winced.

They again sat in silence for an hour. But before you know it they arrived in Vegas.

Big Al opened the door and Claude and Faramir jumped out. The truck drove off.

"Wow Vegas!'' Claude shouted in excitement. They ran off into the Donald Trump Casino.

Meanwhile, at the casino Eowyn was at the bar having a drink while Arwen and Galadriel were at the slot machines.

"What's wrong honey?'' The bartender asked her.

"Oh just bored,'' she sighed. She drew a deep breath she asked for another drink.

"It isn't interesting here. My friends are too busy at the slot machines and all the guys are stupid, especially the one over their by the bathroom picking his nose.''

The bartender was pouring a drink for someone while listening to her.

"Well,'' he said passing a drink to someone. " There is a cute guy around here.''

Eowyn was now interested. " What did he look like?'' she pressed.

"He was tall with dark skin, brown hair that is greasy, and a mustache and beard. His name is Aragorn.''

Her expression faded when he said Aragorn.

"What is wrong,'' the bartender caught her expression.

"Oh it is a long story.''

"Okay.''

" Come on have fun!'' The bartender told her.

"Alright I will!'' Eowyn got up from her seat and walked away.

"So who is winning,'' she asked when she walked up to them.

" I am!'' Galadriel said proudly.

She and Arwen kept playing. Eventually she was bored. Until a dark figure came up to her.

"Hey baby!'' It was Wormtongue. He said it in a deep voice.

Eowyn was startled by his presence. Wormtongue had an Afro black, a disco suit on, with platform suit, and wearing a lot of make up.

"Umm hi.''

Wormtongue remembered that he had to be suave since women love that.

"What is your name?'' he said all suave.

"Eowyn.''

"Eowyn is a nice name.''

"Thanks.''

"What is your name?''

Now Wormtongue was stumped. He couldn't think about a name.

"Umm… Lando!''

They talked for a while. Wormtongue like where this was going. He just had to win him over. "Would you like to accompany me on a walk?''

"Sure!''

So they went outside and held hands. They walked really slowly.

" I really like you!'' Wormtongue replied.

"I like you too.''

Wormtongue couldn't think about what to say but then he did.

"Eowyn take my hand!''

Eowyn stopped short and was lost for words.

"What?''

"Take my hand!''

"But I am already married.''

"Eowyn my dear we are great together. Take my hand.''

Take My Hand

By Rachel

Music starts

Wormtongue: Take my hand

And you'll be free,

Free from the troubles that come,

To pass.

Take my hand.

I'll be with you,

When we cross,

To the other side.

On the road to freedom,

I will guide you,

From the troubles that come,

To pass. You know, you know that I love you.

Just take my hand,

All will be good,

With no more troubles that come,

To pass. You know, you've heard, you've heard my heart beat for you!

All the others,

Don't understand,

Or see the magic,

When you take my hand!

Just take my hand,

I'll cherish you,

No more troubles will come,

To pass. You know. You've heard. You've seen. You've seen the light of daaaaaaayyyy!

Whoa, Whoa, Whoooooooaaaaaa!

Wormtongue had images in his head. First, Faramir was dead and his grave said "Rest in Peace!'' Then, they were frolicking through a garden. Celeborn was there. " Hey dude this is my dream now get off!'' He snarled. Celeborn walked off. Then, they were making out on the beach. Then, they were married and had kids. One son and daughter. The son was Wormtongue and the daughter was Eowyn. They grew old together sitting in rocking chairs. Finally, they were buried next to each other and the grave marker said " Rest In Peace.'' He continued to sing:

Take my hand Stalkers: take his hand

And you'll be free, Stalkers: (And you'll be free)

Stalkers and Wormtongue: Free from the troubles that come,

To pass.

Wormtongue: Just take my hand, Stalkers: (Just take his hand)

Wormtongue: I'll be with you, Stalkers: (He'll be with you)

Wormtongue and Stalkers: When we cross, To the other side. You know, you know I/he love/loves you Eowyn: I'll take your hand Wormtongue: Just take my hand!

I'll protect you! Eowyn: I think I love you

Wormtongue and Eowyn: And we will see,

The light of day!

Eowyn: (The light of day!)

Wormtongue: My life's no longer gray!

Eowyn: (All is going my way!)

Wormtongue: Hear what I say!

Wormtongue and Stalkers: Eowyn, my dear,

Just take my/his hand! Eowyn: (I'll take your hand!)

Wormtongue and Stalkers: Just take my/his hand! Eowyn: (I'll take your hand)

All: Just/I'll take my/his/your hand!

Music ends

Faramir and Claude came by when he finished. Faramir clapped.

"Thank you for keeping my wife company.'' Claude rolled his eyes.

"I don't think he was keeping her company.'' Claude muttered under his breath.

Faramir ignored Claude and gave Wormtongue a quarter.

"Dam it you cheapskate.'' Wormtongue said. He left the quarter on the ground and walked out into the night.

Narrator: Wormtongue is a great singer!

Author: Definitely

Narrator: Just wonder if Eowyn divorced Faramir and went out with Wormtongue.

Author: Please no bad images! Also let's think my sister Rachel who wrote Take my Hand!
