Chapter 12 - Adventures in a Winter Wonderland

The brave adventurers were heading through the wintry passes on the Misty Mountains. It was a bright sunny day, and not too cold out. The skies were blue. They were climbing a hill to get to the top trails of the mountains.

"Man all this walking CAN'T be good for me!" Feliesha pleaded.

"I always thought walking was good for people..." Anna said. Feliesha shrugged. Aragorn went up to them and tried making small talk with Feliesha. Once he was there, she shoved her nose into the air and pranced off towards Nicole. Aragorn looked at Anna confused, and she shrugged. Daniel was leading them through the white fields. Soon they approached the top of a high cliff. Daniel immediately stopped at the edge. Jeremy didn't notice and kept walking strait and hit Daniel.

"Ahh!" Daniel screamed falling off the cliff. He managed to grab a branch. "HELP!" He screamed hanging off the cliff.

"AH! I KILLED DANIEL!" Jeremy screamed, as he started convulsing on the ground.

"Oh shut up!" Julliet said. "You didn't kill him yet...he's still hanging there. Should we just leave him there?" Nicole and Iekika agreed.

"No we shouldn't." Legolas said. Julliet gasped.

"How dare you go against my will?" She said.

"Ok..." He said walking back into the crowd.

"Wow. How can you get him to be so obedient like that?" Nicole asked. Julliet shrugged. Nicole wished Daniel and Jeremy were as obedient. "So I guess we SHOULD get Daniel up here..." She said.

"Why?" Iekika and Jessica asked at the same time.

"Because he is the leader." Aragorn said. "Besides me of course." Nicole rolled her eyes.

"FINE THEN! We'll get him up." She said. "How though?"

"We could throw Jeremy off." Anna recommended.

"How will that help?" Iekika asked. Anna shrugged.

"I don't know. But we could still throw him off!" She said, looking at him, still convulsing on the ground.

"I've never killed anyone before..." He whined.

"YOU DIDN'T KILL HIM!" Legolas screamed. Jeremy didn't listen.

"So are you gonna help Daniel or not?" Brandon asked, as he and Matt sat down and watched the whole incident.

"Why don't you give us some ideas?" Jessica asked.

"Sorry, can't, too much work!" Matt said. In the distance, they could see two people traveling through the mountains. "Maybe those people have an idea."

"I'll go and ask." Nicole said. She ran off to the travelers. There was an Elf and a Human. They were both girls. "Hey! We need some help..." The human looked back and saw Jeremy on the ground.

"Sorry, the help you need, we can't give." The human said. Nicole was puzzled. She turned around and realized it was Jeremy they were talking about.

"Oh, not him!" Nicole said. "One of our friends is stuck halfway down a cliff."

"Well then, this is your lucky day." The elf said. "It just so happens we're merchants. And we have some rope that you can use for a favour."

"Sure. What's the favour?"

"That we can travel with you guys as long as we want." The human said.

"OK!" Nicole agreed, not even thinking about consulting the rest of her friends. So they went to rescue Daniel. "Hey everyone this is-"

"Chelsi and Lena at your service!" The elf said. "I'm Chelsi and this is Lena." She introduced.

"They're merchants and they have ropes to help us!" Nicole explained.

"Is it just me, or have we met more merchants within the last few days then we've ever met in our lives?" Daniel asked while he was hanging off the branch. Everyone agreed. So Chelsi got out the rope and threw it down to Daniel. Once he was back up, Jeremy stopped convulsing.

"I knew I didn't kill him." He said.

Sarah W and the Ringwraiths were traveling through the wintry passes of Misty Mountains. She led the other eight, (including Garrett now that he's a Ringwraith) through the passes.

"Are you sure they came this way?" Nick asked their leader. Sarah ignored him.

"I don't think they did." Paul said.

"THEY CAME THIS WAY!" She said. "Gandalf and that dwarf said they did so they must have!" She said.

"Speaking of which, we didn't get the ring from Frodo while we were down there." Jill pointed out.

"I told you, I DON'T CARE about some stupid "One Ring" and its powers! We're getting Jessica as a Ringwraith if we die trying! Or try dieing! Or do some ty-dying!"

"But we have nine Ringwraiths now." Ashley said. "So we'd be going one over the limit."

"Well we will just have to." Sarah W said. "I need a smart person on this crew!"

"Are you sure we're going the right way?" Garrett asked. "Maybe we should have hired a tour guide or something."

"Well I was originally planning to do that, but since we stabbed a certain person we had to get them some new BLACK CLOTHES! No hints Garrett..."

"Huh!" He asked.

"Never mind." Sarah W said. "Let's just keep going."

After hours and hours of the black riders searching, they soon found who they were looking for. Sarah slowly took out a Mordorian Blade.

"Ok." She whispered. "Be very quiet! We'll put a bag over Jessica's head and then stab her! Heehee, I'm BRILIANT! And none of them will notice..." So they snuck up. Sarah W unsheathed the sword, and Sarah Mac had the bag. Quickly, Sarah stabbed Jessica, Sarah Mac put a bag over her head, and they left without anyone noticing. They rode for hours until they reached a small cave. Sarah W pulled off the bag off quickly laughing hysterically. Until once she took it off, she noticed they stabbed the wrong person.
