(IMPORTANT NOTE TO ALL READERS: Some of you have already read most of this chapter, but I put it up, Accidentally, and it wasn't finished, now it is! so don't forget to read and review the rest! The sequel is already started and will be posted soon! thanks to all the readers and reviewers for your co-operation, we probably wouldn't be writing this if it wasn't for you!)

Niori threw her bags down onto the couch and sat down beside them. From the hall, the door burst open. "NIORI!"

Moments later, Carla, Jane, and Erin stormed into the room, seething with fury. "DO YOU REALIZE THAT YOU DROVE AWAY WITH THE ONLY OTHER CAR WE HAD!?!" Jane shrieked.

Niori looked up at Jane through the top of her eyes, glaring at the girl who stood before her. "ERIN HAD TO TAKE FRODO AND LEGOLAS ON THE GOD DAMN BUS!" Carla yelled, angrily.

"IT WAS HELL!" Erin screamed.

"WELL F*** YOU!" Niori screamed, jumping up from the couch, "IT WAS MY CAR AND I CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL I PLEASE!!"

"YOU GOD DAMN B****!" Carla shrieked, her hands curling into fists.

"I'M THE B****?" Niori growled, loudly, "YOU SEEM TO BE MISTAKEN, COUSIN DEAREST!"

"YOU BETTER NOT MEAN ME!" Jane cried, angrily.

"Who else would I be talking about?" Niori replied, coldly, looking at Jane with a look of anger and hate.

Jane, who looked almost as angry as Niori, took a threatening step forward. A small smirk crossed Niori's lips, "You think you could even touch me?" she asked, icily, "You've got to be joking, I'm a hell of a lot stronger than you are!"

"WOULD YOU BOTH STOP IT!" Erin cried, glaring at both, Niori and Jane.

The two girls said nothing, but continued to glare daggers at each other. A few seconds later, Frodo came into the living room. He looked from Jane to Niori and was just about to ask what was wrong, but decided against it. He walked up to Erin (who still looked quite pissed, herself) and pulled lightly on her sleeve. "What!?" Erin snapped, accidentally.

Frodo was a bit surprise by Erin's anger, but tentively held out the thing he was holding. Erin looked down to what Frodo held. It was the book Erin had just bought, but hadn't started to read yet. It was titled "Steps Through Pregnancy" and since she knew nothing about being pregnant, she had bought it. Erin lost all interest in fighting with Niori, and taking Frodo's hand, lead him out of the living room and into the kitchen. Sitting down at the table, Erin and Frodo flipped through the pages. Frodo gave a giggle and pointed to the bold letter headline of chapter 1 "Raging Hormones". "Oh shut up!" Erin cried, and punched Frodo in the arm playfully.

*********************************************************

Back in the living room, Carla had given up with fighting with Niori, and Jane and Niori were still standing, glaring at each other, neither one willing to yield. Then, everyone else (minus Erin and Frodo) came into the room, looking somewhat frightened and pale. "What's wrong?" Jane asked, breaking eye contact with Niori and looking at the fellowship.

"We.....we're becoming ghosts!" Pippin cried.

"What?!" Niori asked, surprised.

Pippin held out his hand, which was now totally transparent. From the kitchen, Erin screamed and a few moments later, she and Frodo both ran into the living room. Frodo's left arm was see-through and both Erin and the hobbit looked terrified. Looking around, they noticed that all of the fellowship had parts becoming see-through. The left side of Sam's face, Merry's right arm, Gimli's left leg, Boromir's neck, Legolas's middle section, Gandalf's right leg, and Aragorn's chest. "Holy hell!" Carla exclaimed, "They're fading! going back!"

Everyone gasped in surprise and then was silent again. Erin's choked sob broke the silence. Erin slunk down to her knees, facing Frodo. "I can't do this alone," she whispered (everyone else but Frodo left the room, knowing the young couple would need time alone) "I won't be able to raise our baby alone".

Hot, salty tears slid down Erin's pale cheeks and Frodo embraced her. he was so cold. It made her shiver under his touch. "God, I don't want to leave you, Erin," Frodo stroked her hair soothingly, "If I had not the burden of the ring to bear, I would stay here with you forever and never return to Middle-Earth, If I had the choice".

Frodo's crystal eyes sparkled with tears. He wiped away one that slid down his cheek, then using his still visable arm, wiped a tear that ran down Erin's face. "Don't leave me, Frodo," Erin whispered quietly, leaning her head into his chest, "I can't live without you".

Frodo lifted up Erin's chin and brought his soft lips to her's. the kiss lasted for a minute, and was so full of passion and anguish, it made more tears come to both of their eyes. "I love you Erin," he stroked her hair lovingly, "I love you so much!"

Erin gave a small smile, "I love you too, come one, let's go get your things".

*********************************************************

"Well," Carla spoke, as they all stood outside the living room, "You guys are finally fading, I guess I should give you your weapons back".

The fellowship looked at her. Over the two months they had been here, they had forgotten that Carla had hid their weapons from them. (I wonder why). "Where did you hide their stuff, anyway?" Niori asked.

"In my room," Carla shrugged.

"You have my bow?" Legolas asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Yeah," Carla replied with a smile, "It shoots almost as well as mine!"

Legolas glared at her. "I thought I told you to keep your hands off of my bow? I haven't touched yours!"

"Oh, both of you grow up!" Jane cried, throwing her hands into the air, "Carla, you really didn't use Legolas's bow, did you?"

"Yea...."

"Carla!" Jane elbowed Carla in the ribs and shook her head.

"Oh..." Carla replied, cluing in, "No...I didn't".

"Can you just get our things?" Boromir asked, irritably, "I would really like to have my sword, before we disappear back to Middle-Earth!"

"Well sorry!" Carla replied, and marched down the stairs.

Minutes later, Carla came back up the stairs with their weapons. She passed each one to their owner, and then Erin and Frodo walked into the room, holding hands. It was obvious, by the way they looked, that they were both crying. "how much longer?" Pippin asked, "Until we go back?"

"I don't know," Niori said, with a sigh, "but we should probably get you guys ready to go, you can leave anytime!"

They all went into the living room and stood around waiting. Erin and Frodo were having private time, at the far end of the room. The other hobbits, along with Boromir and Gimli, were chatting among themselves, Carla was going through the bags of stuff Niori bought (and stuffing most of the stuff into the back pack she had). Legolas, Jane, Niori, Gandalf, and Aragorn were making small talk. "Hey Carla," Niori spoke, glaring at her cousin as she stuffed Niori's shirt into her back pack, "What's with the back pack?"

"After they're gone, I'm hiding at you house, My parents could be home anytime, and I'd rather be hanging at your house, rather than here!"

Niori gave a small laugh, then gasped when she turned her attention back to the others. All of the fellowship members were glowing! "I think you're going!" Jane cried, "You're leaving!"

Everyone stared in shock. Before they left, Erin and Frodo had one last kiss that seemed like it didn't want to end. Jane wrapped her arms around Aragorn's waist and hugged him tightly. "Jane?" Aragorn asked, not knowing how to respond to Jane's hug, "Why are you hugging me?"

"If only you knew," Jane replied, "If you only knew".

Carla had gotten off of the couch to say goodbye, but ended up spitting a few nasty comments at Legolas, at once, they both drew their bows. (Carla always had hers with her!) "My god!" Niori cried, stepping between the two and lowering their bows, "Would you two please stop!"

Suddenly, there was a bright flash of golden light. Everyone closed their eyes to avoid begin blinded. Slowly, the light receeded. Blinking, the four girls expected to see the fellowship gone, but were fully surprised when they were all in the same positions as before. "Hey!" Niori cried, "It didn't work! you're still here!"

"You're wrong," Legolas replied, his crystal eyes widening, "Look around!"

The four girls looked around and got an even bigger surprise. They were no longer in Carla's basically destroyed living room, but in the middle of a giant forest. Slowly, the realization dawned on them, when the fellowship had faded, they had brought Niori, Carla, Erin, and Jane with them! They were all in Middle-Earth! Suddenly, all that could be heard through-out the vast, silent woods of Middle-Earth, were four teenage girls screaming!

(A/N well that's definately it this time! hope you enjoyed our story a lot, and don't worry, we couldn't just leave it at that, the sequel will have more action and will be very interesting! Please R&R! *TBC*)
