This is mysticaldreamsorceress and yes my story might turn into a mary sue. I'm telling you right now it will eventually be a legolasxOC. So if you don't like don't read. I don't own any of Tolkien's characters.

The key for my story:

"talking"

/Thinking/

(something I have to say)

inner thoughts

'sarcasm'

Chapter 2

The first thing that Miranda saw when she woke up was the sun. Now the last thing she remembered there was no sun in her room window until late after noon. The next thing she noticed was she was lying on wet grass.

"Where am I?" Miranda questioned to herself. Suddenly she could hear something in the underbrush. She quickly remembered her training and hid behind a tree.

"Now Mr. Frodo we can't be lost. Were only a few hours from Bag End." Miranda hears someone say.

"I know Sam. But I miss it already." Replies another person. Deciding she was safe and they weren't a threat she decided to ask for directions.

"Excuse me?" Miranda asks

"Who are you?" Asks a short man with dirty blonde hair. He looked like a child, only he had hairy feet. Something told Miranda these were not children.

"My name's Miranda. And I think I'm lost." Miranda replies. She didn't want to be rude.

"Nice to meet you lady Miranda. I'm Frodo, and this is Sam." Replies the other one.

"Pleasure to meet you. Now where are we exactly?" Miranda asks. She looked around at her surroundings.

"Your in the shire milady. But how did you get here?" Asks the one called Sam

"I don't know to tell you the truth. The last thing I remember was falling asleep in my bed." Miranda replies. "Do you mind if I accompany you?" Miranda asks curiously.

"No not at all." Replies Frodo he seemed to be the more trusting one. For Miranda would not have let someone accompany herself just like that. But she knew she did not mean them harm, so she went along with them.

And so Miranda accompanied these small men, who she found out were called hobbits, on their adventure. They wouldn't tell her where they were going or why they were going there. Soon they came to a small field of corn. Miranda was behind Sam. Suddenly Sam starts freaking out.

"Frodo? Mr. Frodo? Frodo? Frodo!" Sam calls getting worried the longer Frodo didn't answer.

"What's wrong Sam?" Asks Frodo.

"It's nothing. Just something Gandalf said." Replies Sam. /Who's Gandalf/ Miranda mentally asks.

"What did he say?" Asks Frodo in a serious tone.

"Don't you lose him Samwise Gamgee, and I don't mean to. I don't mean to." Sam says

"Sam were still in the shire. What can happen?" Asks Frodo. And I guess 'what can happen?' are the magic words for trouble. Because suddenly Miranda saw both Sam and Frodo get hit by two other hobbits. They exchanged words, but Miranda was more worried about the man chasing after the hobbits. Suddenly the hobbits ran away leaving Sam and Miranda behind. Sam quickly followed, with Miranda hot on their trail. Suddenly she saw a cliff in front of them. The hobbits unfortunately didn't. Sam collided with them and they all tumbled down the cliff. She managed to get down there to catch the last bit of their conversation.

"Mushrooms!" Said one of the hobbits.

"I think we should get off the road." Frodo says quite worried. He looks down the road. Miranda does as well. The road seems to change into a warped version.

"Get off the road! Quick!" Yells Frodo. All the hobbits run under a fallen tree. Miranda hides behind a tree nearby. Suddenly a figure appears dressed all in black. He starts to sniff around. Miranda has a felling of dread, but she needed to stay calm for the hobbits sakes. Suddenly one of the hobbits throws the bag of mushrooms away from them. The creature takes off after the noise. They all run for it.

"What was that?" Asks one of the hobbits. Miranda never did catch his name. "And who are you?" The same hobbit questions.

"My names Miranda. And you are?" Miranda asks.

"Perigrin Took. But you can call me Pippin or pip." Aays Pippin.

"And I'm Merry. Pleased to meet you milady." Says the other

"The pleasure is all mine." Miranda replies

They are soon on the run again. It is soon dark. They are running from tree to tree. Miranda couldn't help but feel like a spy.

"What is going on?" Asks a tired Pippin.

"That rider was looking for something or someone. Frodo?" Asks Merry.

"Get down!" Miranda whispers harshly to them. They all hit the ground..

"Sam, Miranda, and I must get out of the shire." Says Frodo looking over to Merry.

"Right. Buckle Berry ferry. Follow me." And with that they all start to run. But then suddenly one of those things came out of nowhere. They all start running for the ferry. Sam, Merry, and Pippin are the first ones there. They push off and Miranda leap's onto the ferry. Frodo jumps and just barely makes it.

"How far till the nearest crossing?" Asks Frodo

"Brandywine bridge 20 miles." Replies Merry.

Outside of Bree

It was poring rain. The hobbits and Miranda could barely see. Frodo was in the lead. They all quickly ran to the gate. Miranda kept watch on the road incase those things were following them. Frodo knocked on the gate. Miranda hoped someone would answer. She was soaked, more so than the hobbits. They had a cloak, while she didn't.

"Who goes there?" Asks a creepy looking man to Miranda. Deciding she should answer him she says…

"My companions and I wish to stay at the inn." Miranda replies. Upon hearing others the man decides to talk to them. And shuts the hole and goes to look through a lower one. Miranda was quit angry at this.

"What business do you have in Bree?" Asks the man.

"We wish to stay at the inn. Our business is our own." Replies Frodo. And the gate man opens the gate.

"Hobbits. Four hobbits, and a lady. I didn't mean no harm little masters, and lady. Just doing my job. Theirs talk of strange fold abroad." Replies the man giving Miranda a pointed look. She was after all wearing strange clothes. In her world they would be considered pajamas. Her outfit was workout shorts, a tank top, without shoes. You wouldn't find a woman wearing those type of clothes, not that anyone would be wearing those types of clothes. Miranda knew she had to get some new clothes, or at least 'normal' clothes. They run for the inn. It is after all still raining. Finally they reach it. The Prancing Pony.

"Alright since I don't know what to do I'll let you handle this Frodo." Miranda says and follows the hobbits inside. Once inside she wished she was outside. Being in the rain kinda made her clothes cling to her. Showing all the men there that she was in fact a woman. (you know what I mean. she had big breasts. Not big in her world, but big in theirs. And she had big hips as well. Not to mention she was toned and muscular.)

/ No matter where you go men will be men./ Thinks Miranda. And she did not like the way some were looking at her.

"Good evening little masters if your looking for accommodations we've got some nice little hobbit sized rooms mister?" Asks the bar tender bringing Miranda out of her thoughts.

"Underhill. My names Underhill." Replies Frodo to the man.

"Underhill." Mumbles the bar tender.

"We're friends of Gandalf the gray. Could you tell him we've arrived?" Asks Frodo.

"Gandalf?" Asks the bar tender "Gandalf." He mumbles. "Oh yes. I remembered. Old chap. Pointy hat." He replies Frodo smiles and nods his head. "Not seen him for six months." Replies the bar tender. The hobbits and Miranda are worried at that.

"Now what do we do?" Asks Sam. They decide to pay for a room. And then the hobbits decide to drink some ale. Miranda wouldn't touch the stuff. So she decided to have water. Not that it was the 'clean' water that she was use to.

"What's that?" Asks Pippin as soon as Merry came back from the bar.

"This my friend is a pint." Replies Merry.

"It comes in pints?" Asks Pippin. "I'm getting one." He states and goes to the bar.

" But you've had a whole half already." Sam says , but is ignored by Pippin. "That mans' done nothing but stare at you since we got here." Says Sam pointing to a man in the corner. He was in the shadows.

"Sam. Don't point. It's rude." Scolds Miranda to the hobbit.

"Excuse me." Asks Frodo to the 'bar man' as Miranda dubbed him. "Whose that man over there? The one in the corner?" Asks Frodo

"He's one of them rangers. A dangerous folk they are. What his right name is I don't know. But around here he's known as Strider." Replies the 'bar man'.

"Strider." Frodo mumbles. Suddenly he could hear his name being called. 'Baggins. Baggins.'

"Baggins. Sure I know a Baggins. Frodo Baggins. He's my cousin twice removed from his mothers side." Pippin was saying. Suddenly Frodo leapt up to try and stop Pippin from saying any more. But he slipped and the ring flew into the air and fell on his finger. Frodo then disappeared. The bar went into a panic.

Then Miranda could see the man pulling someone short up the stairs. She showed this to Sam and he then gathered the other hobbits.

" You stay down here where it's safe Ms. Miranda." Says Sam. They then ran up the stairs. Now Miranda didn't listen to people when she knew something was against her. And staying down there was not the safest thing to do. So she followed the hobbits up the stairs. She could hear shouting down the hall. She came to a shut door.

"Where's Miranda?" She could here Frodo ask. She was about to open the door when someone came up behind her. The first thing she did was cry out in surprise. And then her instincts came out.

Inside the room

Suddenly the door flew open. Strider unsheathed his sword ready to fight.

"Let him go! Or I'll have you long shanks!" Sam yells to Strider.

" You have a stout heart little hobbit. But that will not save you. You cannot wait for the wizard Frodo they are coming." Says Strider.

"Where's Miranda?" Asks Frodo. He really wanted his new friend. Suddenly they heard a cry outside the door. Then they heard pounding. Strider opened the door. What they saw was a man out on the floor and a very pissed off looking Miranda.

"What happened?" Asks Frodo.

"He attacked me. I had no choice." Miranda says in a tone that said 'he got what was coming to him'.

Strider then had them make their beds and follow him to another 'cheaper' inn across the street. And that is where they are now. All the hobbit's are a sleep. Strider's at the window keeping watch. And Miranda's sitting by the fire.

"Why do you travel with them?" Asks Strider. In the dead silence Miranda did not expect this.

"What do you mean? I had no where to go, and they let me come along. I don't mean them harm. If that's what your wondering." Replies Miranda. Strider seemed to get this smirk on his face. "What?" Miranda asks

"I never asked if you meant them any harm." Strider states.

"No, but you implied it with your hidden message." Replies Miranda.

"Hidden message?" Asks Strider. He was very confused by this girl.

"Yah. You don't trust me. I'm just guessing here but you were asked by this Gandalf to help Frodo get somewhere. Correct?" Asks Miranda.

"Yes." Replies Strider on his guard.

"Well you didn't expect to see a group of hobbit's with a human did you?" Asks Miranda.

"No I did not." Replies Strider.

"I don't blame you for being on guard. I would be if I didn't trust you." Miranda says and goes back to watching the hobbits sleep.

Suddenly she could hear the gate being crushed. And a feeling of dread filled her entire being. Then across the way she could see figures moving in the room her and the hobbits would have been staying in had Strider not brought them to this inn. The hobbits awoke to the sounds of the screams. Frodo asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

"What are they?" Frodo asks Strider.

" They are the nazgul. Ring Wraiths. They were once great kings of men. Sauron the deceiver created nine rings. Blinded by their greed they took them without question. One by one they fell into darkness. Now they are slaves to his will. They feel the rings power at all times. They will never stop hunting you." Replies Strider to the hobbits and Miranda.

"Well then. I guess we'll need our rest. Come on hobbits go to sleep. We've got a long journey ahead of us." Says Miranda in a 'go to sleep or else' voice. The hobbits do finally go to sleep with Miranda soon following them.
