Mint Mocha Frappuccinos
Nickel's PoV
After what seemed like hours, we started moving. Gandalf, for some reason, seemed to think it was my fault – just because I insisted on making more eggs, but poached this time. Freak.
And so we walked. By this time, the sugar I'd found had worn off, forcing me to do something everyone would have banned me from doing had they known. I dug into Kelsey's bag and produced a four-pack of Mint Mocha Frappuccinos.
"Wonderful tasting energy drinks now available!" I called. "Hobbits, want some?"
"Sure, so long as it isn't as disgusting as the stuff Aragorn fed us," Pippin replied, taking the four-pack and distributing them. I pulled out four more frappuccinos and passed them to Amanda, Allie and Kelsey, taking one myself.
"Hey! This isn't a White Chocolate Mocha! Get me a Venti White Chocolate Mocha out of the bag!" Kelsey realized.
"Fine! Miss Picky, aren't we today?" I replied.
"No! I just don't like these, and a White Chocolate Mocha is what I normally have at Starbucks."
Allie's PoV
Exit four sober hobbits and four (relatively) normal girls. Enter hyper versions of the afore mentioned beings, minus one. (For some odd reason, caffeine never affected Kelsey. Maybe because she always drinks it.) Exit calm, sane others. Enter annoyed others. At least the Hobbits didn't complain.
Surprisingly enough, the coffee's effects lasted us seven the next three days, almost all the way up the stupid mountain. Unfortunately (and without surprise, however), the caffeine was getting people cranky, except Nicole, who everyone, including me, agrees is high on duckweed (a water plant that resides near her home and is high in protein).
Kelsey and Amanda were freezing, again, and convincing Legolas and Aragorn to steal blankets from each other for their warmth. This, of course, meant war.
Not long, but it has a cliff-hanger. I promise, the next one'll be longer!
