Chapter 10: Lost in the Rain

September 3, Third Age 2998

Merry, Pippin, Frodo, Sam, and a couple other Hobbit lads were playing in the outskirts of the Old Forest. The other Hobbit lads were the very few outside of family who liked Pippin. As they were playing and having a good time, they suddenly heard a loud bang. They looked up to the sky where the bang seemed to come from and they saw dark clouds forming in the sky.

"It looks like it's gonna rain." Sam said.

They all made a beeline back to Brandy Hall. It hardly ever rained or stormed in the Shire, but whenever it did, it really stormed violently. Sometimes, some of the farmers' fields flooded, causing great damage. They reached Brandy Hall just in time as it started raining. As Merry shut the door, he turned around to look at everyone. He suddenly realized with great fear that someone was missing: Pippin!

A/N: I know, short chapter, but I want to build up the suspence!
