Me: Bule! Get over here! It's your turn to do the disclaimer!
Blue: But I don't want to!
Me: I know you don't! That's why I'm making you! Your a part of this story too, it's time you started acting like it!
Blue: *Stops flirting with Red* What the *bleep*! IS SAID I DON'T WANT TO! SHUT UP WOMAN!
Me: What the heck Blue! I'm not a woman! So stop callen' me that or I'll punch your face in!
Blue: *Gets off the couch and walks* So it's a fight you want is it? Then it's a fight you'll get!
Me: *Gets up and walks into the middle of the room to meet Blue* Bring it on pretty-boy!
Blue: It's on!
Vio: Please *wheeze* get *gasp* on *wheeze* with *gasp* *wheeze* it. *gasp* Frodo *wheeze* and I *gasp* need *wheeze* the elves. *gasp*
Me: *Runs over to Vio and kneels beside him* Vio, you shouldn't talk. You need to save breath. Blue, this will have to wait. Vio's right, we need to get them to the elves. Now do the disclaimer so we can go on with the story, then you can go back to flirting with your boyfriend.
Blue: Fine! Luckily, VioWolf doesn't own LoZ or LotR.
Me: Good- what! Did you say luckily? You little! YOUR SSSOOO DEAD!
Merry, Pippin, Red, and Green: VioWolf!
Me: *Lowers my bow* You live for now Blue. But as soon as this chapter is done you die. You'll only live in this story.
Red: *Cries his eyes out* No! Not my love!
Me: Fine! You'll live, but only cuz I can't bare to see Red cry like that.
Chapter 4: Wounds That Grow
Aragorn put Vio on the pony they had bought back in Bree. He carried Frodo. They went on for hours, until to the hobbits relief, they stopped.
Aragorn laid Frodo and Vio on the cool ground. The two gasped for air as their companions examined them.
Both Frodo and Vio's eyes had become extremely pale and were nearly white. They exchanged inconsistent gasps. Frodo's gash wasn't extremely deep, but it still was serious and seemed to cause him great pain.
Aragorn lifted Vio so that that he could examine his back. Pippin sighed in relief that his Frodo's injury wasn't too deep. "At least it didn't-" Everyone gasped as they looked at Vio back and saw that the cut had gone strait through his chest.
"Vio!" Red yelled as he hugged the violet clad teen. "What happened to you?"
Vio attempted to tell them but couldn't get the words to escape his lips. Frodo however, managed to speak but was frequently interrupted by his own gasps. "He tried to shield me with himself."
Vio reached out to Frodo and finally managed to let his words escape his mouth. "I-I-I'm sorry," he said. "I-I failed. I was s-s-suposed t-to portect you. I-I failed. I w-will die a f-f-failure." He now reached out to Sam. "P-p-plaese do what I c-c-coulden't. Please p-protect him." Vio's eyes started to droop. "P-please set m-me down, I f-fell tired. I w-want to go to s-s-sleep."
Aragorn shook Vio. "No Vio," he said. "Be strong, don't give into fatigue. Stay with us." Aragorn set the teen down next to Frodo.
"I know this might sound stupid, but why can't Vio go to sleep?" Red asked Aragorn.
"I fear that in this state if he fall asleep he will never wake up," The man explained. "I fear that if he sleeps then his whole body will do likewise. If that were to happen everything inside of him would stop including his heart. I fear that if he sleeps he will die."
"Oh," Red said. All the hylians looked at the ground.
"So if he rests he dies," Blue said.
"That is one way to put it," The older man said.
"That's so weird," Green said. "When I was young if I got sick or hurt my father would tell me to sleep. He said that then I would save the energy that I needed to get better, and he was right. When I woke back up I would always fell a lot better."
Then the screams of the ring wraths cut through the night. Frodo and Vio's eyes opened wide and their gasps became shorter.
"What's happening to them?" Red asked.
"They are calling to them." Aragorn said. "If we don't get them to the elves..."
Green's expression became grave. He stared at Aragorn and used his "let's get down to business" voice. "Aragorn, what will happen to them if we don't get them to the elves?"
Aragorn dared not look at anything except the ground. "They will become one of them, they will become black riders."
Red got up. "That can't happen!" He yelled. "That can't happen to one of the goddess's chosen ones!" He looked at Green. "That can't happen to us can it? We can't turn evil can we? Link never would!"
"I don't know!" Green yelled in panic. "Vio's the smart one!"
"Who is Link?" Asked Merry.
"Link is the hero of Hyrule,"Green explained. "We are his reincarnation."
"How can that be when there are four of you?" Asked Aragorn.
Green looked at Red and Blue, who in turn glanced at Vio when made odd faces. Green nodded in agreement. "That is a long story which we're sure Vio would love to help tell."
Another scream of a rider cut through the night. Vio wheezed as the stretched out his arms to embrace it.
Aragorn ran over to him. "No Vio," he said. "Be strong, don't give into the darkness. You might as well die if you give in. Think of the one you love most, would they want you to die?"
Red, Green, and Blue winced, knowing how that question must tare at Vio. Vio let out a loud cry.
"You see," Green started. "the one he loves is dead. He sacrificed himself so that our mission would be successful."
"Poor Vio," Red said as he clung to Blue. "He must fell so sad. I can't imagine if I lost you lost you, Blue."
The ocean clad teen rolled his eyes. "I catch you once and you go head over heels over me."
Green smiled. We all know you love him, Blue. He thought. And you know it too.
"That's horrible!" Merry said. "How can he go on knowing that he can't see his love until he dies? I wouldn't be able to go on after something like that happened to me!"
"After that," Green said. "he stopped talking and eating for a while. But then when we got to this world he came back around." Green looked at Frodo. "I guess that him needing to protect all of you gave him a reason to go on. We all owe you for that. If it wasn't for all of you he would probably starve himself."
"Or commit suiside," Blue added. "That would be more likely. He wouldn't want anyone to have to help him. He would think of himself as deadweight."
Green looked at Blue and gave a playful smile. "What do you know, Blue does have a brain."
"Sam," Aragorn said to the blond hobbit. "do you know the plant athelas?"
"Athelas?" Sam said. "That's a weed."
"Yes," Aragorn said as he garbed his knife. "It might help us heal their wounds." He took out two leaves he already had picked. He handed then to Red. "While Sam and I look for some more grind these up an put them into their wounds."
Red nodded. He and Blue started to grind up the leaves.
Just as Aragorn had found some athelas he heard Red's high voice yell from the camp. "ARAGORN!" Red yelled. "THE WOUNDS! THEY'RE GROWING!"
Me: Ya! Another chapter done!
Bule: Good! The sooner we get over with this the better!
Red: Blue, that wasn't very nice. Say your sorry.
Blue: Never gonna happen.
Red: *Makes his eyes all big and watery* Please Blue. It would make me happy.
Blue: Alright, since it will make Red happy. Vi-
Me: *Hits the ground and laughs my head off* Stop! Stop! This is just too funny!
Bule: *Gets up and prepares to punch me* While you little punk! I utta-
Red: *Cries a lot* No Blue! Don't kill VioWolf! I don't want to date a murderer! WWWWAAAA! Green! Blue's gonna kill VioWolf!
Green: *Runs in and grabs Blue* NO BLUE! WE DON'T KILL ANYTHING BUT MONSTERS! BAD HERO! BAD! *Turns to Red* Why do you date this guy?
Red: Cuz we were made for each other.
Me: Please read and review!
