The Party (part 3)
When Melui returned she found that the hobbits had started a dance off.
At the moment it was Pippin against Frodo. The song they were dancing to sounded familiar but she couldn't remember where she'd heard it. Actually, it sounded like a bunch of random noises and phrases mixed together in a song.
It was almost over and Pippin looked about spent. Melui realised that everyone was cheering for Pippin but the hobbit fell over in exaustion trying to beat Frodo's move.
Bilbo, who was acting as judge, announced, "And the winner is Frodo! Again...."
There was an assortment of cheers and boos from the crowd. Pippin was dragged off by Sam.
"How in Middle Earth does he keep winning?" Esmerelda exclaimed as she took a bite of a slice of pizza. Which was actually three pieces stuck together.
Melui walked over to Losider for an update.
"What's going on?"
"The hobbits decided to have a dance off. So far Frodo has beaten everyone."
"Everyone?"
"Everyone."
"Almost everyone." a voice joined in.
Melui's heart skipped a beat. Aragorn smiled at her as he walked over.
"What do you mean 'almost everyone' Aragorn?" Losider asked.
"I mean, there's still one person who hasn't gone yet."
"Which is?"
Aragorn gestured over to a spot nearby. Losier and Melui turned and almost burst out laughing.
"Legolas? You're kidding!" Losider couldn't imagine seeing Legolas dance.
"Forget it. Legolas hasn't danced in years." Melui told them laughing softly. "Actually, I don't he's ever danced before in his life."
"Well that's going to change." Aragorn exchanged a mischievous look with Losider.
Oh boy
Melui thought. She follwed Aragorn and Losider over to where Legolas was.
------------------------------------------------------
"You want me to do WHAT?" Legolas shouted.
"We want you to beat Frodo in the dance off." Losider explained unable to contain his laughter at the thought of Legolas trying to beat a hobbit in a dance off.
"No! I will not humiliate myself in front of everyone."
"But you're the only one who hasn't gone yet!" Gimli insisted.
"You have to beat him! Look at how smug he's getting!" Sam pointed over at Frodo, who was acting like a compete diva.
"You've gotta put him in his place." Aragorn nudged him.
"Help me Legolas Greenleaf, you're my only hope."
Everyone looked down to see Pippin laying on the grass where Sam had left him.
"Pippin what are you doing?" Sam asked.
"Wallowing in self pity."
"Ok... But come on Legolas! You have to do it!"
"No. I do not."
"Come on Legolas, it will be awesome!" Losider begged.
"Why don't you do it Losider? Or you Aragorn?"
"I already went. Were you not watching?" Losider asked tilting his head to one side.
"And I can't." Aragorn said.
Legolas narrowed his eyes at him.
"Why not?"
"I sprained my wrist."
"Your wrist? How on Arda did you sprain your- No you did not you liar!"
Aragorn held his wrist and winced in pain.
"It really hurts."
"You did not sprain your wrist!"
"Yes I did."
"How?"
"I banged it really hard on a table."
"That would not sprain your wrist!"
"Alright then. You leave us with no other choice."
Legolas looked at everyone nervously. They were all grinning miscievously.
"What are you guys-"
Suddenly a very familiar song started playing. Legolas recognized it immediately. His face went pale.
"Oh please no! Anything but that! Please!"
But it was too late. At once everyone around him started singing, "They're taking the hobbits to Isengard! They're taking the hobbits to Isengard! To Isengard! Gard! Gard! Gard! Gard!"
Legolas threw his hands over his ears and begged them desperately to stop.
"It's not even funny anymore! Why does everyone still think it's funny?!?!?"
"The hobbits the hobbits the hobbits the hobbits the hobbits to Isengard! To Isengard! The hobbits the hobbits the hobbits the hobbits the hobbits to Isengard! To Isengard!"
Legolas tried to get away from them but it was no use. Everyone was singing it. Before they could go on to the next part Legolas shouted, "ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! I'LL DO IT! JUST PLEASE STOP!!!"
Immediately the music ceased and the singing stopped. Aragorn smiled and patted Legolas on the back.
"There, was that so hard?"
Legolas's eyes shot daggers at him.
"What was that Legolas? You said you would challenge me in a dance off?" Frodo asked cheekily.
Legolas's ears turned red. He closed his eyes and let out a very long and very frustrated sigh.
"Yessssssssssssssss."
"Alright than. Let's get to it then."
As Frodo walked towards the center Legolas looked at Aragorn and hissed, "I'll hurt you, and I'll make it look like an accident."
Melui whispered, "No he won't."
Legolas and Frodo stood in front of each other in the center of the field. The hobbits watched in excitement. This was gonna be good.
Frodo smirked at Legolas.
"May the best hobbit win."
Legolas said nothing. All he wanted was for the stupid thing to be over.
Bilbo, who was also providing the music, shouted, "Get ready, on your mark, get set, DANCELIKETHERE'SNOTOMOROW!"
The music started and Aragorn and the others waited for Legolas to make a laughing stock of himself, but then watched open mouthed as he completely destroyed Frodo.
"I thought you said he couldn't dance..." Sam said to Melui not taking his eyes off of the dancing elf.
"I said he'd never danced before. I never said he couldn't." she was just as shocked as the others.
Frodo desperately tried to keep up with the elf but it was no use. The hobbit fell over leaving Legolas standing in silence. Everyone was quiet for a moment. Until Esmerelda shouted, "You da boss Leggy!"
Everyone else started cheering and clapping while Aragorn, Melui, Losider, Sam, Gimli, and Pippin stared with their mouths still open.
Meanwhile, Legolas and Frodo were concentrating on trying to make themselves as small as possible.
------------------------------------------------------
Vili was having the time of her life. After her dance with Merry they had gone all over Hobbiton. Merry had showed her everything, and the whole time he had kept her laughing.
After he'd gotten over his shyness he'd turned out to be a very charming hobbit.
Vili loved everything about him. The way he talked, his curly red hair, his humor, personality, everything about him was perfect.
At one point they were walking in a field outside of the party. They could here music and the sound of many hobbits cheering.
"I wonder what's going on?" Merry asked.
"Who knows? All I know is that I'm having the best time ever." Vili smiled and Merry blushed.
Durin's beard he's adorable!
Merry was about to say something when they both heard a noise.
"What was that?" Vili asked.
"I don't know."
Merry and Vili walked towards the sound and they came to a small thicket of bushes. They pushed their way through and found themselves in a small clearing.
"What is all of this?" Vili asked looking around at all the random stuff lying around.
"No idea." Merry suddenly saw something he recognized.
"Hey! That's one of Gandalf's fireworks!"
"How did it get out here? And with all this other stuff?" Vili asked.
"I brought it here."
The dwarf and hobbit jumped at the voice. They turned and saw a young elleth.
She smiled and said, "Hi. I'm Piper."
"Who are you?" Merry asked.
Piper rolled her eyes.
"I just told you."
"I mean, what are you doing here?"
"That's a very good question, that has a very good answer." Piper walked over to the large firework that stuck out of the ground.
"Well? What is it?" Vili asked.
"This, is the biggest, craziest, most dangerous firework ever to be created." Piper admired her work with pride.
"I meant, what is your reason for being here?"
"I'm going to wish those two hobbits a happy birthday. Just in my own special way."
"You're not going to hurt anyone are you?" Merry asked.
Piper scoffed.
"Of course not! This is all for fun! Everyone's going to love it!"
"But why are you doing it here? You don't know Bilbo or Frodo. Why would you be wishing them a happy birthday?" Merry aksed.
"I know Legolas. And I know that he's gonna love this."
"You know Legolas?" Vili asked.
"You know Legolas?" Piper asked.
She stood up and smiled.
"Don't worry guys. This is all a harmless prank. It's nothing to get worked up over. In fact, if you like you can hang out here until I light it. Which will be in about..."
Piper checked her phone.
"Three minutes."
Merry glanced at Vili, she looked back and shrugged.
"Sure. Why not?"
------------------------------------------------------
"That was the most humiliating moment in my life." Legolas placed his head on the table and refused to look up. His hair completely covered his face and ears.
"Are you kidding? That was awesome! Who knew you were such a sick dancer?" Esmerelda said as she popped a cupcake into her mouth."
"I cannot get sick. I am an elf."
"Not what I meant."
"Seriously Legolas, why are you sulking? You won the dance off! You should be happy!" Melui nudged her brother.
Legolas mumbled something that no one could understand. Melui sighed and left her brother alone. Everyone was sitted down at one very long table as they waited for the final event of the evening, the cake.
Frodo sat with his friends at the head of the table. Bilbo was at the very front and Primrose was on his left. Next to Primrose were Pippin, Esmerelda, Gimli, and Aragorn
On Bilbo's right were Frodo, Sam, Legolas, Melui, and Losider. There were two empty places that were supposed to be for Merry and Vili.
Where do you think those two wandered off to?" Gimli asked. "And Gandalf?"
"Who cares? All I know is that they're going to miss out on all the-" Esmerelda's face turned white. She alsmost choked on her cupcake.
"What's wrong Esmerelda?" Losider asked.
Esmerelda nudged Pippin, whose face was also pale.
"Is something wrong?" Primrose asked.
"Uh..." Pippin looked nervously around the table.
Esmerelda suddenly shot up.
"I just remembered! I forgot to turn off the microwave before I came! I'll be right back."
Esmerelda sped off with Pippin following close behind her.
"Me too! Sorry guys be right back!"
They watched as the two hobbits ran as fast as they could from the party.
"That was weird." Sam commented.
"Yeah." Primrose agreed.
A hobbit suddenly ran out and shouted, "THE CAKE'S GONE!!!"
"WHAT?" Primrose shot up from her chair.
"I know what happened."
Everyone turned and saw Gandalf appear, dragging Pippin and Esmerelda back to everyone.
"These two, and Merry, ate all the cake before the party."
Angry shouts greeted the wizard's words. Esmerelda laughed nervously and whispered to Pippin, "We're gonna get it now Pippin."
The hobbit nodded.
"Nice knowing ya Esmerelda."
Before anyone could move a sharp whistling noise was heard in the sky. Everyone looked up and saw a lone streak of light shoot up in the air.
Before anyone could move, a massive explosion of light filled the air. A huge boom echoed across the Shire. Everyone fell over and everything was destroyed, and everyone was silent.
------------------------------------------------------
And that was the party! I think it ended with a "bang" Hahahaha! Get it? "bang" HAHAHAHhahahaheh... Heh... Ok then...
