There was approximately a heartbeat between her waking and the instant when she latched herself onto my shirt, multicoloured hair flying, colour-changing eyes locked on mine, and be-you came along and…”I blinked, my eyes sliding sideways to Aragorn, who shrugged almost imperceptibly.She was still talking. “…and I like real music like MCR and Hawthorne Heights but my parents only like crappy oldies stuff like this guy Schubert I mean what’s Schubert supposed to be that’s not a name it sounds like a branch of a cobbler’s but I don’t buy my shoes at cobblers I buy them online because you can get such cool stuff online like these jeans aren’t they awesome but then sometimes you meet weird stalkers online and they’re nasty but they won’t come after me because I know tai kwon do and Daddy taught me how to fence and I’m the best pupil in my whole class at Games actually I’m the best pupil in my whole class at everything but…”I cast a desperate look back at the rest of the Company, and mouthed lipsticked mouth moving so fast it was almost a blur.
“Omigosh where am I and who are you I was just in my room and then there was this fairy only he wasn’t a fairy he was a comedian in a tutu and then he hit me with his wand but before that George died and my name’s Siltasuvi Araeina Raven Tri’shah Iuhlmati Ellenor Isabella Geliarae Arwen Sarabelle Kitsune Hmrevenueandcustoms Smith but you can call me Suvi and I’m not called Smith that’s just my family’s name they’re not my real family and I know because I have this magic belly-button piercing and it’s just the colour of toilet cleaner or my eyes and I wanted to get away but then the fairy came and hit me with his wand like I said and there were lots of letters all the same-y and then I landed here and I was tired so I went to sleep but omigosh this isn’t my room and then

Please review and enjoy.
It was the summer of 1425 in the Shire reckoning and Rosie Gamgee was now pregnant with her third child. Sam had been holding her hand as the contractions started. Merry and Pippin were present though Pippin had gone to fetch the doctor from over the Brandywine.
Soon the doctor came and he helped deliver a beautiful girl with Sandy blonde hair. Pippin was sitting on a chair nearby asleep. He had spagreed that the new baby would be called Rose.Soon everyone left Rosie and Rose in piece. The doctor went back over the Brandywine and Merry, Pippin and Sam got talking about little things. ‘Might get a bit squishy in here.’ Pippin said after a while, looking around the small smial.‘It might, Mr Merry, but we shall see what will happen in due time.’‘Didn’t Frodo say that you could move into Bag End?’ Pippin asked, puffing at his pipe and blowing a smoke ring.rinted fast down the road and hadn’t stopped since he had returned. It was Merry’s turn to hold the infant. ‘She’s so light.’ He said as he carefully cradled her in his arms.
‘What is to be her name?’ The doctor had asked after a silence. Pippin was now awake and he was holding the baby, though he was showing signs of nodding off again and Sam took the little girl from his arms before handing Pippin a blanket.
At length he said ‘I think she kind of looks like you, Rosie.’ He said with a smile. He gave the young baby to Rosie who cradled her.
‘Yes I do too.’ They all ‘He did, but I’m not quite sure if I should move in, if you take my meaning.’ Sam said looking at the ground.
‘No we don’t.’ Merry and Pippin said in unison.

penneth?” the older Elf asked, jogging up to them. “I think not. I have to see what damage Thorontur’s inadequate tutelage has done to your aim, do I not?”
Legolas laughed.
“Lord Thorontur has not had much time to devote to training – since you last saw me shoot most of my training has been with the Archery Masters.”
“Worse and worse,” Glorfindfeet. I will have a word with Thorontur about this; we cannot have your archery ruined for lack of a good teacher.”Legolas, Elladan and Elrohir all laughed, although they were not entirely certain whether Glorfindel was joking or not. He gave them a smile that could have meant anything and backed off a few paces.“Go on, Legolas,” he said. “Five arrows, in the centre, as quickly as you can.”“A silver brooch says Glorfindel will find something to complain about,” Elrohir murmured to Elladan. His voice was too soft to carry to Glorfindel, but Legolas heard and scowled at him. His scowl deepened when Elladan replied, “Do I look like eight kinds of idiot? Glorfindel finds something to complain about when he watches Daeradar at practice.”“Legolas!” Glorfindel said. “Whatever ridiculous nonsense those two are going on about, ignore it and shoot!”el said grimly. “Your father’s Archery Masters cannot be trusted to shoot a horse from three Legolas drew in a deep breath, checked his bowstring, set his feet, and pulled the first arrow from his quiver.
“That was a brilliant idea, Celebrían,” Lindariel murmured as she stood at the study window

“Mae govannen, Legolas said legolas, switching to the common tongue.Legolas’ legs buckled, Haldir caught him as he began to fall to the ground. Haldir noticed Legolas’ wound.Legolas tried to push away Haldir’s probing hands.“Let me look.” said Haldir as he gave Legolas a stern look. Legolas nodded and let Haldir inspect his wound.Aragorn moved to Legolas’ side, his face covered in fear. Legolas’ eyes began to roles back into his head as his consciousness began to leave him. Aragorn and Haldir did not notice Legolas lose consciousness for they were too fixed on his wound.Haldir lifted Legolas into his arms, being careful Thranduilion.” Said Haldir as he bowed to Legolas, a look of concern in his eyes (Welcome Legolas, son of Thranduil.)
“Govannas vîn gwennen le, Haldir o Lórien” said Legolas his eyes becoming heavy (Our Fellowship stands in your debt, Haldir of Lórien.)
“ier lle eithel” said Haldir as he placed one hand on Legolas’ shoulder (are you well)
“Quite well” not to cause discomfort.
“You may go no further” he said as he noticed that the fellowship began to follow him “Legolas shall come with me. You shall remain here until I or another of the queens guard come to you!” with that Haldir left with the limp legolas

blushed. He was teasing me and I knew it. But I still couldn’t help feeling a little bit guilty. I mean here I was complaining to him about my day, when his had been equally tough. It’s not everyday you battle Orcs and find out your world is a fairytale to humans thousands of years in the future. Alright, the Orcs may be a more common occurrence, but definitely not the second part.
"Here, drink this. It should dull the pain." He handed me a cup filled with a greenish-brown liquid. Why it is that all pain medication has to look, smell, and taste absolutely disgusting is beyond me.
"Do I even want to know what this is?" I asked, peering into the cup.
"Probably not."
"Right then. Bottoms up."
My face must have been hilarious behave a feeling tomorrow is going to be a long day."Tomorrow. I was not looking forward to it. Although, I wasn’t quite as apprehensive about my meeting with Lord Elrond as I had once been because Glorfindel believed me. It was such a relief to know that someone didn’t think I was completely crazy. And it also helped that that someone happened to be a very powerful Elven Lord and good friends with Lord Elrond himself.Looking at the blanket and mat in my hand, I realized I was going to have a hard time setting up any sort of decent bed with only one good arm. "Uh, Faelon," I said cause I could tell Faelon was doing his best to try and not laugh. I, on the other hand, was doing my best not to gag.
"That stuff," and here I shuddered, "is positively foul."
"I never said it would be good, only that it would help with the pain."
"Pfft."
"Get some rest. I while nodding to the stuff in my hands, "could you help me?"
"Of course." He set up my bed right next to where we had been sitting and proceeded to help me get situated. "How is it?" he asked.
"Wonderful."

3- My HeroWhat now?” Lord Glorfindel sighed, turning towards us.“I understand you. I mean we can actually speak to each other.”“Well, you are an elf. I would hope you would speak your own language.”“Not very bright, is she?” Almira smirked.Oh, sure this coming from her. Glorfindel did not reply, just simply rolled his eyes and began to turn away towards his horse when Almira began to speak again. Always a bad thing.“My lord, how long until we reach Riverdale?”“Rivendell, you idiot,” I groaned.
As the guards were binding our hands, Lord Glorfindel issued orders concerning our bags, who was to guide us, and so forth. It was during this interaction with his guards that I realized I understood every single word that had been spoken. Not only that, but both Almira and I had managed to converse with Lord Glorfindel.
“Oh my God!” I cried in my surprise.
““Not very bright, is she?” asked Glorfindel.
“You have no idea,” I replied.
Almira just rolled her eyes. Again.
“It will be about a two day walk to the gates of the city,” Glorfindel said

in Eriador, close to the village of Bree,” replied Aragorn.
“Brie?” said Logan. Had he somehow fallen off the Empire State Building and into France? He knew that Brie was the name of a French cheese, and it was quite possible that some eccentric Frenchman had named a village after his cheese, or vice verWhat was the strange man playing at?“So what are you doing, running around in France with a bloody big sword and dressed in this fancy costume?”Aragorn looked down at his clothes. He knew they desperately needed a wash, but fancy costume? He would have thought that such a description would apply better to Logan’s outlandish clothes. His garb was decidedly not fancy, and he wasn’t wearing a ‘costume’ either, at least not in that sense of the word. “I beg your pardon?” he asked.“Okay, I mean, what are you doing here? You don’t look sa. ‘Nice,’ he thought. He was even better than Kurt Wagner, the teleporter. He bet that even Kurt could not teleport from New York to France.
“Yes, Bree,” said Aragorn. At last, they were making progress, at least on the communication front.
“So, is this where brie cheese was invented?” asked Logan. His mouth watered at the thought of hot pizza with pepperoni, mushroom and brie, followed by an ice-cold bottle of Heineken. Fighting always made him hungry, and it had been a hard fight.
Aragorn looked at Logan blankly. “I presume that cheese made in Bree would be called Bree cheese,” he said cautiously. French to me.”
“Firstly, my name is not ‘Oh-kay’. You may call me Strider,” said Aragorn. First, the man thought that his name was ‘Jesus’, and now ‘Oh-kay’? Did he not know that it was common courtesy not to call a stranger by any
