A/N: Okay, it's late. I need to get up early tomorrow. My mom and I just watched The Help. Seriously, if you haven't yet, please do. It's incredible. Absolutely incredible. Um, what else? Oh, so tonight's my 111th drabble, so I figured it was time for a Lord of the Rings crossover. Not sure how well it turned out. Let me know what you think! Oh, and since the countdown's starting to get closer to the end, if y'all have any requests, now's the time to get them in! :) Enjoy!

"Whoa, hey, what are you doing?" Merlin struggled to drag his young apprentice away from the other boy he was trying to attack.
"He started it," was the defensive reply.
"I don't care who started it, or what for," Merlin exclaimed. "Revenge doesn't help anything!"
In the staring match that followed, the offender somehow managed to slip away unnoticed, leaving just the two of them.
"Listen to me," Merlin, crouched down to eye-level. "Hatred does nothing but hurt itself. You understand?"
The boy nodded.
"Good." They both turned to leave. "Oh, and Gandalf?"
"Yes?"
"You don't always see gold's glitter."
Cheers!
