The Really Big Fellowship of the Ring
Ob1MegOb1
Ob1MegOb1: Alright due to the lack of some people not wanting to reply to what people said in their reviews. (Everybody looks at Sam.)
Sam: I do not smell!
Ob1MegOb1: I decided to take the poll of who was talked about the most in each person's reviews. But just because we are not replying to people's reviews doesn't mean we still don't appreciate their reviews and what they have to say about their characters. Its just that there are so many reviews coming in that it just is to hard to keep track of them all. Alright now I'm going to tell you the results to my poll and whoever wins gets to answer to what the reviewers said about them. Alright here are the results.
Jack- 7
Sirius, Harry, Frodo-6
Will, Merry, Pippin- 5
Remus, Sam- 4
Aragorn, Gimli, Gandalf- 3
Legolas, Jasmine- 2
Boromir- 1
Jack- Well mates looks like I'm the winner among ye all so what did my lovely reviewers say about me?
Ob1MegOb1: First Smiles27 says your hot.
Jack smiles while everyone else groans.
Ob1MegOb1: yaminy-grint4eva says yer hot and pirates rule.
Jack: Only too true only too true. (Leans back taking it all in.)
Ob1MegOb1: And finally 7 huge crates of rum courtesy of Alys'Culdil'Baranlote, JeanieBeanie33, and yaminy-grint4eva.
Jack looks like he's in heaven: Drink up me hearties yo ho!
Everybody sighs.
Ob1MegOb1: And thats it.
Jack: Leans towards Will and Legolas. I'm actually very surprised one of you too didn't win. Sorry mates.
Everybody is glaring at Jack: What?
Everybody starts to advance towards him as Jack nervously begins to back up.
Jack: Hey mates it was one poll
Everybody still glaring.
Jack glances over at authoress: Why are just standing there. Can't you give me a hand.
Ob1MegOb1: I'm not getting involved in this I have a story to write.
Will: I think its time for a little mutiny Jack.
Jack sighs: Not again.

Chapter 4
Moria
Harry cautiously made his way into the mines. As he did though an awful stench hit his nose. And they all stared in horror at the bodies that littered the floor. But the stench of the rotting bodies was not the only thing that filled his nose. Did he also smell gunpowder?
Then he realized his fear was true as he looked down at one of the bodies which had a bullethole right through his head.
He gripped Jasmine's sleeve and she put a comforting arm around his shoulders. He had never seen so many dead bodies in his life.
We shouldn't subject Harry to this, she said sternly, We should make for the Gap of Rohan.
I agree, Boromir said at her side, We shouldn't have even come here at all.
I think we should keep going. The kid should get used to death. I get the feeling he's going to be seeing a lot more of it. Jack said from the sidelines.
Are you crazy? Jasmine said almost angrily. I think its apparent that something killed all these dwarves and won't think twice to do the same thing to us.
he said softly.
He's lost it, Pippin whispered softly.
They are right, Gandalf said, Let us leave this country in as quick fashion as possible.
But there was a cry of alarm and Harry could see that Frodo was being carried off by a large tentacle of some kind. And he watched as the hobbits desperately tried to release him but suddenly several more appeared and knocked them away the other tentacle lifting Frodo high above the ground.
He desperately watched as Jasmine, Legolas, Aragorn, and Boromir tried to release Frodo from the monster that lay within the lake. Aragorn and Boromir were chopping away desperatey but it seemed everytime they would chop one away another would pop out and catch Frodo before he fell. But finally Frodo fell into the open arms of Boromir and they all began to retreat into the mines.
Into the mines, Into the mines! Gandalf called out. And everybody ran in as fast as they could as the entrance caved in on them.
Harry clawed his way through the dark until a bright light shone from Gandalf's staff giving them light to see faintly what was in front of them. We now have only one choice, Gandalf said solemnly, We must face the long dark of Moria, be on your guard. There are worst things than orcs that exist in the dark places of the world.
And then they began the four day trek through Moria.
The Fellowship was silent as they tread through Moria. They were that way only in fear of being found by the enemy that they were wishing to avoid.
Legolas had spent the whole journey in a sort of aggravation. It was bad enough having a dwarf travel with them but the pirate was beginning to drive him crazy. He kept defying authority and getting into arguments. It made Legolas think that he was only there to fight his greatest enemy and that was it. He made it seem like he didn't care at all what they were fighting for. And then he was always trying to be close to his sister which to Legolas was way out of line. But Jasmine didn't seem to notice as she was too busy caring for young Harry.
He looked behind them though as Aragorn came up behind. Every now and then he would go back and see if Sirius or Remus were following them but every single time he came back alone.
Any sign of them? Legolas asked.
Aragorn shook his head disappointed, We should have never left him.
You forget my friend they are from the future and even though we may not know where we are headed next maybe they do.
Aragorn smiled at his friend, How are you holding up?
Legolas smiled, Fine as always but I think I am becoming agitated with this Jack character.
Aragorn sighed, I think we all are. How about his companion? The one who resembles you?
He seems fine, but always uptight as if he is reluctant and new to all this.
Then they came to a stop as they came to a three way fork in the road. Gandalf looked from one tunnel to another confused. I have no memory of this place.
Looks like we are stuck once again, Legolas said.
Aragorn nodded his head in agreement.
Pippin sighed. They had been waiting a little over an hour now and still Gandalf had not remembered. he whispered, I'm hungry.
Your always hungry, Sam said annoyedly.
Well I'm not used to having supper or food only twice a day.
You sound like my friend Ron, Harry said from the sidelines.
You must miss them, Merry said, Cause I know I wouldn't be able to last very long without Pip here.
Thats right because Merry is all brawn and no brain, while I on the other hand am all brain and and some brawn.
You wish, Sam said.
They all laughed quietly at the comment.
Actually being without my friends was easier when Sirus and Remus were here.
Don't worry I'm sure they are okay, Sam said comfortingly.
I don't have any doubt that they aren't, but still I wish they were here.
There was a silence between them. But they could hear the soft muttering of Gandalf talking to Frodo.
Harry heard Frodo say to Gandalf, I wished that the ring had never come to me I wished that his had never happened.
So do all who come to see such times but that is not for them to decide. All you have to do is decide what to do with the time that is given to you.
Harry smiled. Sometimes Gandalf reminded him a lot of Dumbledore with his advice and wisdom. But Harry knew whre Fordo was coming from. Everyday he wished that he wasn't the boy who lived and that Voldmort had never killed all of those wizards. And he always wished taht he wasn't the one that would have to destroy him or the whole world would perish.
Suddenly he heard the Fellowship give a sigh of relief. It seemed that Gandalf had figured out which way to go. He slowly got up and descended once again into the darkness of Moria.
As they walked down the steps Harry stared in awe at the sight that met them at the bottom. It was the dwarf city of Dwanadalf. The pillars that supported this city were more than a thousand feet high. But the glory of the city was covered once again with dwarf corpses.
Then everybody turned as Gimli gave a cry and headed in the direction of an open doorway. In this room was corpses galore with a single tomb in the middle which was illuminated in a beam of light. At the sight of this tomb Gimli's heart filled with sadness and bent down in sadness in front of the tomb.
Here lies Balin son of Fundin. Lord of Moria, Gandalf said translating the dwarvish runes on the tomb, He is dead then.
It is as we feared, Jasmine softly.
Gandalf handed Pippin his hat and stick and proceeded to pick up a tattered book which lay in the grasp of a dead dwarf.
We should keep going, Legolas whispered to Aragorn and Jasmine, We can not linger. They both nodded their heads in agreement as Gandalf proceeded to read from the book.
We have barred the gates but can not hold them for long. The men that are with them hold weapons that spout fire and death in a single moment.
Jack muttered.
Drums beat in the deep. We can not get out. We can not get out. and then Gandalf paused a moment before saying the last line, They are coming.
Then everybody jumped as a crash and a clatter ran through the entire room. Gandalf turned to stare at Pippin who cringed as the entire body of the dwarf he had been touching fell into the well behind him causing more racket then before. And then the bucket from the well proceeded to follow it as well giving one more big clang before the racket finally went silent.
After a few tense minutes everybody gave a sigh of relief that the noise had not been heard. And then they all glared at Pippin.
Fool of a Took! Why don't you throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity! Gandalf scolded causing Pippin to cringe at every word.
But then the heard a soft boom boom boom of the drums and everybody's heart began to race. They had been discovered!
And in the very faint distant they could here ho ho ho ho ho ho!
Oh no, Will said, The pirates are here as well.
If we fight we can overcome them.
There's only one problem with that mate, Jack said, These pirates kind of don't die.
Immortal pirates. That is the most preposterous thing I have ever heard. Boromir said.
Well your going to believe it when they come through those doors with a thousand of those orc things.
Speaking of which we should probably secure those doors, Jasmine said rushing forward with Boromir, Aragorn, and Legolas. Boromir just barely dodged a couple of arrows coming his way.
Then as they closed the doors he muttered, They have a cave troll and there is no sign of the pirates.
But even that did not calm the racing hearts within that room. Here was their first big challenge of this quest. And failure was not an option.
