This is going to be a short chapter because I am experiencing writer's block. I cannot decide how to continue the story, so I am giving you what I have so far in hopes of some good ideas. Enjoy!

As always I do not own Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings.


Chapter 6

We approached the side of a cliff and sat down. Gandalf busied himself with solving the riddle on the entrance, while I sat to the side reflecting on the past few days.


Flashback:

The day of our journey was dominated by an awkward silence until the Hobbits began to complain. The Hobbit, Pippin, pestered me for hours to perform some magic tricks. Everyone could tell that I was very annoyed with the small creature. Legolas, however, was the most bothersome by far. He watched them harass me, looking far too amused to be innocent. I shot a nasty glare in his direction.

Facing the road once more, I was determined to tune out the constant jabbering beside me. I glanced over at Legolas and saw he was chatting with Marry, looking very smug. I was becoming very suspicious. Then Marry walked over to me, badgering me with pleas of a demonstration. That bastard!

This means war.

"Fine, I will give you a demonstration when we make camp tonight only if you remain silent the rest of the day"

The entire group stopped in their tracks surprised that I spoke. I shot Legolas a slytherin worthy smirk and continued walking past the currently stunned Fellowship. I was looking forward to making camp tonight. I took a sip of my polyjuice for good measure and began to plot my revenge.

We made camp in a clearing in a forest. I immediately put up wards around our camp out of habit.

"What are you doing?" Asked Aragorn, I turned to face them once I was finished placing the wards.

"I am placing wards around our camp so that any person who happens upon our camp will not see nor hear us. I also made the wards repel any creature that comes within one hundred feet of the camp." I shrugged my shoulders and plopped down by the fire that Aragorn was starting.

"Show us a magic trick! You promised!" Shouted Marry and Pippin. I smiled at them and replied, "Well I can't break a promise now can I." Looking over at Legolas I casted a silent Avis.

Immediately swarms of yellow birds attacked Legolas. He let out a "manly" yell and began swatting them away. The rest of the company was quite amused and laughed at the expense of the blonde elf.

When the birds flew away Legolas looked livid. Our game was only beginning.

After dinner, and introducing the men to the beauty that is packaged food, I opened up the tent. I walked into the tent with the intention of picking up any mess before everyone else came in. I ended up redesigning the tent to have one large, round, room that would have colorful futon-like mats and pillows for my guests. I also made two small rooms off to the side for Gandalf and I. Then I walked out of the tent to invite them in.

"You may rest in my tent if you would like, I guarantee it will be more comfortable than the ground."

Gimli looked at me strangely and said, "That tent looks a wee bit too small for all of us to fit in Laddie." I smiled back at him and looked expectantly to Gandalf who stooped into the tent. I followed him in and beckoned them forward saying, "Things are not always as they seem."

I stepped into the room and pointed Gandalf to his room and waited for the others to enter. Boromir was the first to enter. When he saw the room he gasped and was rooted to where he stood.

One by one they walked into the tent, each as shocked as the former. Sam looked relieved that he would not be sleeping on the floor.

I looked up at Legolas, he looked deep in thought. I hope he isn't too upset with me. Though something tells me he will not let this slide.

I put on a charming grin that I had seen Charlie wear many times before and told them that they could rest here.

"If you need me, I will be in the back room."

I departed for the back room to ready myself for bed.

End Flashback:


I sighed and looked up at Gandalf and Frodo; they were still attempting to solve the riddle. I looked down at the gourd around my neck and took a sip. I shivered at the awful taste and continued my nostalgic moment.

Unfortunately my completely unnecessary reminiscing was interrupted by a certain nosey blonde.

"What do you have in the gourd?" The snoopy elf asked.

"Nothing that concerns you." I answered. I then gave him a wry smile and looked out at the lake.

"You know, you have some great hair… how do you keep it so silky looking?" I asked Legolas. That's what he gets for snooping!

He turned the same adorable shade of pink as when he saw me bathing. Wait adorable?

Before my thoughts could continue Gandalf figured out the riddle, and opened the mines.

As we walked to the entrance of the mines a tentacle grabbed Frodo's foot and dragged him out over the water.

"Shit!" I yelled and ran back out to the lake.

I shot stunning spells at the tentacles and ran out onto the water using a gravity spell. Legolas shot arrows at the beast and Aragorn slashed at its tentacles. When I was under the tentacle holding Frodo I shot out a slashing hex severing the appendage. I caught Frodo and carried him back to the shore.

Without missing a step I ran into the cave with the others and collapsed the entrance. I was thankful that I was in Charlie's body because there is no way that I could have carried Frodo in my real form.

My potion alarm went off again and I sighed in frustration. I reached for my gourd, but to my absolute horror it was gone.

I would have twenty four hours before I was Hermione Granger once more.


I would really appreciate ideas, I am a little stuck now. Thank you for reading!
