Tela mounted her horse. She still felt very dizzy ut would not let it overcome her twice. Whatever this thing was it would die. She would slowly skin it if it even had skin. SHe cursed Sauron. Turning to Daragon, she blushed but thanked him the best she could.
"Fool of a Brandybuck.. I should get the practice sword, it was MINE to begin with! You should carry the stick!" there were voices from the road ahead, outside Rivendell.
"I AM CARRYING A STICK, you pile of ox dung, Jimbleberry! And my stick is broken! So it's shaped like a broken wooden sword.. it's a BROKEN WOODEN SWORD!! frigga-fraggin' fool of a Took!"
"Stop arguing, you two!" a Londro demanded. "We are supposed to be on a covert mission! So, shush!"
The three Hobbits trampled up the trail, toward Rivendell, approaching the gathering group of others ahead...

As Dagaron turns his horse to leave Rivendell, he see's three small figures walking up the trail. Well, if it wasn't three hobits. He had always loved the halflings. Turning to Theomer he spoke. "On our way out pick one of the halflings up on your horse. Arwen you do the same, and I'll get the last." He tied Tela's horse to his own to lead her and rode toward the trail. Before the lead hobbit knew what happened, he had been grabbed by the collar and lifted into Dagaron's saddle, as well as his friends with the others. "Sorry about this little one. There is evil here. I will explain all when we stop. Don't struggle or I'll have to knock you out, which will not be very comfortable for you."
(((Everyone keeps spelling Dagaron's name wrong...even me. I'm sorry Xornon.)))
Tela sighed. She did not like being led. She would rather do the leading herself. She didn't like not being in control. it scared her and made her even more tense. Her eyes darted looking for danger while listening to Dagaron. She felt her nausia passing.
"Unhand me, human!" Jimbleberry demanded.
"Release us! We are on a top-secret mission of great importance!!" Sethilor added.
"Uhh, we have an invitation..." Londro concluded. "We're meant to be here... well, sort of... we come as representatives of Master Bilbo Baggins of the Shire..."
they were small, and at the mercy of the humans; and it was better than wandering about on foot all the time, so they went along for the ride.
"Will we be stopping soon for second supper?" Jim chimed in as the group traveled on...

((no problem, i'm sure i spell it wrong sometimes too, when i type fast, lol, its all good))
Dagaron heard Tela's sigh even over the horses hooves. He reached around the halfling in front of him and untied her reigns, tossing them to her. "Sorry, wasn't sure if you were ready to ride yet."
Dagaron smiled at the hobbits mention of food. "We will stop soon to make sure everything is okay, and you can eat then. As for your invitaion master hobbit, you were more then likely called to the meeting that we just came from. Don't worry, I'll explain all in good time."
"See that, stupid?!" Seth sighed. "I knew we would miss the meeting if we stopped for Late and Later Lunch... now we are all off-schedule! We are small as it is, we can't afford to always play catch-up!"
"Shut your yammer-hole, Seth..." Jim jibed back. "You know I get ill with faint if I don't have late lunch and late late lunch after Elevensies... it isn't my fault you are such a slow eater... you don't CHEW, you eat! Be more like me, Took!"
"Forgive my friends." Londro sighed. "They haven't been this far from the Shire... they get nervous and cranky before supper... it soon will pass..."

Dagaron smilled. The halfilings always caused him to laugh. They were a paculier race, but a likeable one, unlike others. They continued to ride until the sun began to set, and then they stopped. Dagaron lowered the hobbit off of his horse and then jumped off himself. He stood near by, watching Tela carefully. The last thing they needed was for one of their greatest warriors to get sick with fever.
((whoa... That's a lot of reading... Sorry 'bout that Tela... err... Nab... I'm just going to keep calling you Tela, it sounds better ))
((this goes back before all that... when the hobbitses first got picked up))
"Baggins? Bilbo Baggins? I know Bilbo, lived with him for nearly a year, dontcha know," Theomer said, slipping unknowingly into a hobbit-like manner of speach.
Tela slid off of her horse. She petted its nose. With a few whispered words she scouted out the perimeter of their camp. she had to make sure they were safe. Her head pounded wildly ut she only wincethen went on. She had a duty and the innocent must e protected.
Theomer slid off his horse and loosened his girth. He built a small fire, and motioned the hobbits over. "So, tell me lads... What brings you so far from the Shire?"
Dagaron quickly made a small fire. It was risk for sure, but for right now, he had to get food not only in Tela to make sure she stayed strong, but the halflings, or there would be a riot. While he cooked a big chunk of meat, he spoke to the hobbits. "The meeting was called to talk about a dark lord that has risen to power. One of Sarons servants. Well, this leader obviously found out about our little meeting, and found the potential leaders of a resistance force, and tried to kill them. Tela over there was hit in the ribs...." he paused as he almost told of his own wound. "And the others were shot at, but luckly weren't hit. As long as we stayed there, Rivendell was in trouble, so we left. Luckly we caught you. Who knows what you might have had to face." He cut each person a piece of the now cooked meet. He took Tela's to her. "I know you'll hate me for saying this, but you need to rest. I'll be up all night watching. You need to fight off the fever. You're to skilled a fighter and leader to get ill now."
The halflings stretched, and Londro stepped up to the thin, wiry human.
"I think you should tell us something first, Ranger, if that truly is your profession, Sir... You say you know of Bilbo Baggins? What of the other Bagginses, the cousins and uncles and second-cousins, and such? For I'm not sure I know of you... and I'm fairly sure I know of my fair cousin, Bilbo..."
"Aye, that's a fair question, Londro ask 'im..." Seth stepped up. "Before we tell him about our suspicions of Master Bilbo being lost to the Orcs, we should get as much infor---urk!-" a sharp elbow to the rib from Londro shut up the second Hobbit's ramble.
"Yeshssh, asshk him mo--mmmmm-" Jimbleberry tried to take his mind off his food, but just couldn't, cramming more fruit into his already full mouth.
"We have a vested interest in being here now, and only wish to know your cause and ours run a similar course..." Londro covered the revelations of his rambling friends.
