Chapter 3:

The Council of Elessar

The company of heroes had just stopped for the night and was just setting up camp.

"Ring goes on, Ring goes off!" Frodo was saying.

"Shut up! You stupid hobbit that ring of your has no power of invisibility! Remember you destroyed the real one six years ago in the fires of Mt. Doom?" Legolas yelled.

"That's not true I secretly kept the One Ring for myself and destroyed the counterfeit one!" Frodo confessed.

"You what?" Legolas, Gandalf and Aragorn yelled.

"Fool of a hobbit!" Gandalf screamed.

"What are you guys screaming about? It's only a stupid ring! What's the big deal?" Link said.

"The deal is that now on top of everything else we need to make a return journey to the fires of Mt. Doom to destroy the REAL Ring of Power, so Sauron does not return to power once again!" Aragorn explained.

"Ooh! Someone or should I say a certain Hobbit is in trouble!" Link teased.

"Hold it! So that explains how the ringwraiths found us last night! It was all the stupid Halfling's fault! Kill him!" Navi screamed.

"Now Navi, just because Frodo made a poor choice doesn't mean we should harm him. I think we should continue on to Coruscant and learn how to use the Force, and then start out on the Quest to once again destroy the Ring." Gandalf admonished.

Everyone agreed that, that was the right choice to make. The next morning the company held another meeting concerning the present state of affairs. Aragorn started the meeting by saying that he thought they should make for Edoras and get Eowyn's help.

"Ooh someone has a crush!" Link teased.

"If you only knew the half of it!" Legolas chimed in.

"Settle Down!" Gandalf yelled.

"I am so stupid!" muttered Frodo to himself.

"That's right!" everyone yelled in agreement.

"Well at least we have agreed on something!" Link joked.

"All right for the next order of business: What to do next, continue on to Coruscant or head for Rohan to get their help." Gandalf said.

"Let's take a vote then." Suggested Navi.

"Alright, all those in favor of continuing to Coruscant, raise your hand!" Aragorn said.

Everyone raised his or her hand.

"Its settled then, we make for Coruscant!" Aragorn announced.

The company then made ready to depart for Coruscant. But before they could mount their horses, they saw an eagle hastily flying towards them.

"Ah! Gwaihir, my old friend! What news from Middle Earth?" Gandalf asked. "War! All of Middle Earth is under attack by Sauron!" Gwaihir cried.

Everyone eyed Frodo while thinking murderous thoughts.

"What?" Frodo cried guiltily.

"What's up with young Baggins? He destroyed the One Ring ages ago." Gwaihir questioned.

At that comment everyone made ready to kill the foolish hobbit.
