Gimli and Galadriel's Journals

By Sashi Mizumoto

A/N: Yay! The bonus chapter! I can't wait for everyone to read this! It's going to be so fun writing this from the view of someone OTHER THAN Gimli or Galadriel. Ok, here we go!

Bonus Chapter: Frodo's Journal

Frodo sighed and looked down into the water as Legolas and Aragorn steadily steered the boat. He stuck his hand lazily into the water and moved it back and forth, watching the ripples with false interest. Feeling a bit jumpy, he thought it best to try to occupy his mind with something. He withdrew his hand from the water and wiped it on his pants, drying it quickly. He took a small, green book from his knapsack and proceeded to write with a delicate gray quill.

I cannot help but feel anxious about our journey so far. I am not expecting to come back home alive, and for that I am deeply sorry. I never really got to say goodbye to the people I love, and I regret that very much. Perhaps I should write about something that has been in the back of my mind for a short amount of time, actually.

What had been going on between Gimli and Galadriel? As I look over at him, I see him absentmindedly playing with the lock of her hair that she had given him. Also, when I had offered the ring to Galadriel, I saw him peeking behind the bushes, looking as though he did not want anyone to see him.

Well, it is none of my business anyway. I shall think of my own problems though. And what is in store of me.

Frodo closed the book and looked ahead with a small smile on his face. He knew, deep down, that he would live. He was safe.

A/N: Ok, now I'm REALLY done. XD
