Heyo! Sorry for not posting new chapters for "Two Assassins" or "New Pandora" if you follow those stories. Getting serious writer's block for them, but they shall not end soon I promise. This popped into my head while watching a LOTR marathon. What if the Vault Hunters were dropped into Middle Earth and worked with the Fellowship? Note* the dialogue will not be exact, I don't need to re write the book.

Chapter 1: Not on Pandora Anymore

Maya jumped out of the way of the Warrior's slag blast. She shot back up and continued shooting the Warrior in the chest with her Thunderball Fists pistol. "Don't let them shoot you there!" Jack barked from inside his shield. Maya saw Axton throw out his turrets and Gaige summoned Deathtrap. Krieg went into Rampage and Salvador started Gunzerking. Zer0 raised his sniper rifle and she prepared her ability. She put everything she had into her phase lock, knowing this was the final barrage against the Warrior.

All of their abilities blasted the Warrior and it collapsed by the computer. "It's dead." Lilith sighed. "Better make sure. Call a blitz using the console." Maya went to the console and hit the button, calling a moonshot blitz. The blitz struck the Warrior, devastating its head and releasing the shield holding Lilith and Jack. "This is impossible!" Jack bellowed. "The Warrior was a god! It can't be defeated by some filthy bandits!" Zer0 stepped forward and raised his Maggie revolver to Jack's forehead. "We are no bandits/ We are so much more than that/ We are Vault Hunters." Zer0 proclaimed.

He pulled the trigger and blasted a hole into Jack's forehead. Maya saw Mordecai supporting Brick as they limped over to the group. "Where the hell were you guys five minutes ago?" Lilith barked. "If it wasn't for the Vault Hunters we'd all be dead." Brick panted "I think… that's her way of saying… we won." Mordecai chuckled "I figured that." Maya laughed and started looking through the loot the Warrior dropped. Maya was right next to the key when Lilith was about to destroy the key.

There was a bright flash of light and Maya felt… light, like she was digistructing somewhere. She was stuck in this feeling until she crashed onto the ground. She opened her eyes and was staring up at a starry night sky. She felt grass and dirt beneath her hands and back as she examined her surroundings. It looked like she was in some kind of forest, but there were no forests on Pandora as far as she knew. She stood up and brushed herself off. She checked herself to find she still had all of her gear and weapons.

"At least I'm armed." She sighed as she looked around some more. "Where am I?" She heard rustling in the bushes nearby and she drew her Hellfire SMG, waiting for whatever this place had in store for her. The next thing she knew, three small men, probably shorter than Salvador, ran into her. She fell to the ground and cursed "What the hell?" As she shot back up the three little men continued running. One shouted "Hurry! Those things are after us!" Maya looked in the direction the little men ran from and another ran out of the bushes.

Then a large black armored horse with a black cloaked man jumped through the bushes. Maya panicked and phase locked the rider. Without hesitating, Maya grabbed the fourth man and booked it in the direction the others ran. "Who are you?" The fourth asked. "WHAT are you?" Maya proclaimed "Answer questions later! I don't know how long my phase lock will hold that thing!" She ran along a path that led to a dock where the other three little men were starting to push a raft off. "Hurry!" one of them shouted.

Maya tossed the one she had and jumped onto the raft. She whipped out her SMG and looked back at the dock. The black rider made a hissing sound as it hit the end of the dock while four more ran along a path behind it. She lowered her weapon and thought "I need to conserve ammo. Who knows if there are any Ammo Dumps here." She attached the SMG to her hip and turned to the men that she inadvertently helped. "Who are you?" One questioned. Maya sat down so she was sorta on their level and answered "My name is Maya. What are your names?"

"My name is Frodo. These are my companions Sam, Mary, and Pippin." Frodo answered. "My other question, what are you?"

"I'm a Siren."

Pippin questioned "What's a Siren?"

"That's kinda hard to explain, so I'll give it a shot. I'm a magical woman along with five others in the universe."

"Like a witch?"

"I guess you could say that, and what are you?"

"We're hobbits."

Sam nervously questioned as he gripped a pan "Do you work for the Dark Lord?"

"The Dark what? No, I was with a group of my friends saving Pandora and…"

Mary interrupted "Pandora? Where is that at? Never heard of a place called Pandora in Middle Earth."

"Middle Earth? Oh fuck, I have no clue where I am."

Mary looked like she was going to say something when her ECHO went off. "What is that!" Frodo panicked. "Relax," Maya assured "it's just my ECHO." She answered it to hear Lilith shouting, but she was very fuzzy. "Vault Hunters!" She buzzed. "We have no idea where you went, but the key showed a message! It said the way home lies within the white city! I repeat the way…" The ECHO cut off after that and went dead, not even static came through the speaker. Maya set the ECHO down and pondered what Lilith had said.

"The way home lies within the white city." Maya repeated. "Where could that be?" Sam answered "That sounds like Minas Tirith. Only white city I know of."

"Where is that at?"

"I'm not sure of the way there, but I know it lies dangerously close to Mordor."

"Why does that sound like a bad thing?"

"That is where the Dark Lord, Sauron, resides. It is an evil place."

"Avoid Mordor, got it."

Frodo suggested "May be Gandalf will know how to help you." Maya asked "Who is Gandalf?"

"He is the grey wizard, one of the most powerful men in Middle Earth."

"Do you know where to find him?"

"We are going to meet him at the Prancing Pony in Bree."

"Cool, mind if I join you?"

"Not at all. With the way you saved us back there from the Black Riders back there, it is the least we could do for you."

"Alright, where is Bree?"

Mary answered "About twenty miles downstream from here."

"Then let's get going."

The continued to sail downstream until they reached a dock. As soon as they stepped off the raft, began to rain. "Perfect." Maya grumbled as the hobbits threw cloaks on. Pippin handed her one and she threw it on. It only reached her hips, but it kept most of her dry. They travelled until they reached a town with a massive wall around it and a large wooden door. "I'm guessing this is Bree." Maya stated.

"You are correct lass." Pippin answered. They approached the door and Frodo knocked. A man opened a flap, then shut it and opened the one below it. "What business do you have in Bree?" He questioned. "We seek shelter in the Prancing Pony." Frodo answered. "Our business is our own." The door man shut the flap and opened the door for them. "No need to get offended," The door man proclaimed "it's my job to ask after dark."

He let them walk through and they made their way to the Prancing Pony. They approached the bartender who exclaimed "Good to see the little folk out here. I'm sure we have some hobbit sized rooms for you." He looked at Maya who dropped her hood and took in a sharp breath. "We as lo have normal sized rooms." He proclaimed. Maya felt uncomfortable in the Inn, everyone seemed to be staring at her. She brushed her hair behind her ear and guessed that it was the color of her hair that made her an oddity. "Gandalf? Long grey beard, pointy hat." The bartender proclaimed.

Maya guessed Frodo asked about him. "Haven't seen him in two months." The bartender proclaimed. The group became down trodden and sat at a table. "Where could Gandalf be?" Frodo sighed. "Don't worry." Sam assured. "He'll be here." Maya picked up her flagon and took a sip of the drink. "At least there are drinks here." Maya thought.

She surveyed the Inn to see if any of the men posed a threat. All the men nervously eyed the group except one. She couldn't see the man's face since her wore a cloak that casted a dark shadow over it. He sat in the corner and smoked a pipe. He seemed to be observing them, watching them. "That man's eyes haven't left us since we walked in." Sam pointed out. Frodo caught the bartender and questioned "Excuse me. Who is that man in the corner?"

"Him?" The bartender confirmed. "He's one of them ranger folk from the north. Mysterious fellow. Don't know his real name, but he goes by Strider." Maya muttered under her breath "Strider." Maya stood up and approached Strider. "Listen here Strider." Maya quietly growled. "I'm not liking the way you are eying me and my friends." He simply replied "You have a sharp tongue lass." That word scratched at the back of Maya's brain.

"What do you want?"

Strider was about to answer her when there was a commotion by the bar. She looked at the bar and then to her companions; there we only three of them. "Frodo." Maya proclaimed under her breath as she approached the commotion. A group of men were gathered around an empty spot muttering "He just vanished." She started pushing through the people and searched for Frodo. "Damn." She cursed under her breath. "Where did he go?" She looked around and saw Strider practically dragging him upstairs. She went to the others and hissed "That Strider guy has Frodo."

"Then let's go get him!" Sam proclaimed as he went for the stairs. Mary grabbed a candle holder and Pippin grabbed an empty flagon. Maya drew her Thunderball Fists instead of her Hellfire, didn't need to burn the Inn down. Maya ran upstairs with the hobbits and kicked the door in. Strider had his hood down and his sword drawn. His hair was long and messy with a small beard. "Leave Mr. Frodo alone or it'll be the last thing you do!" Sam threatened.

"You have heart little hobbit." Strider proclaimed. "But it will not help you in a fight." Strider sheathed his sword, but Maya kept her weapon raised. "There is no need to fight here." Strider proclaimed. "I am a friend of Gandalf's." Maya lowered her pistol, but did not holster it. "We must move." Strider urged as he walked out the door. He had them walk into the Inn across the road and stay there for the night. The hobbits slept in the bed while Strider stared out the window and Maya sat in front of the door.

"You do not trust me." Strider proclaimed. "Not at all." Maya grumbled.

"Why is that? I have done nothing but help you."

"The last person that helped me and my friends ended up betraying us and we had to kill her."

"I assure you I will not betray you."

"We'll see."

"What is your name?"

"Maya."

"Well, Maya, I can tell you are not from here or anywhere from Middle Earth. Where are you from?"

"A planet called Pandora. I'm guessing space is an unknown concept for you."

Strider looked out the window as soon as a horrid screeching sounds erupted from the Prancing Pony. "What was that?" Maya questioned. The hobbits woke up and looked out the window with Maya to see the black riders from before riding out of town. "What are they?" Frodo questioned. "They were once men." Strider explained. "But they were corrupted by the power of the one ring. One by one they entered a dark state. Neither dead nor alive. They are the Nazgul, Ring Wraiths." Maya sighed "Great. Come from one planet to another and there are still things trying to kill me."

There is the first chapter. Let me know what y'all think and I might, scratch that, will write another chapter going through the trilogy.
