Okay this is a long but necessary AuthorÂ’s Note…

Welcome back, Readers! Mae Govannen! I finally got around to posting the first part of
The New Powers….but with trying to finish up everything to get to HelmÂ’s Deep itÂ’s been
really hectic. Plus I have dance for 2 hours Mondays and Thursdays, Band, and I was reading
The Mellon Chronicles. *huggles Trelan plushie* Well…anyway I have some new characters to introduce too…

Sauron: Mentally disturbed gopher with dry eyes

Eowyn: Mary-Sue

Grima Wormtongue: Head of the Llama Liberation Committee

Gollum: Bill Gates in the future :O) lol

Theoden: Changes the subject randomly (as requested by my friend, Pippin4ever)

Eomer: Is obsessed with eggs and bacon…

Treebeard: Near-sighted

Quickbeam: Likes practical jokes.

Faramir: Talks in really bad poems.

Hama: Surfer dude *impish grin*

Legolas fangirl #43: Head of the Legolas fangirls, AKA Perpendicular the obsesser, AKA Elwen
(Okay people the fangirl number represents WHEN they joined the Legolas fangirls and not their rank 🙂 )
(This character will come into play more in the next part of TNP and she is also based on none
other than myself *impish smile* Salutation has one too but she doesnÂ’t come in until next time)

And also introducing…The EmperorÂ’s New Groove cast 🙂 !!!

Disclaimer: Nothing From LotR and The EmperorÂ’s New Groove is ours. Also the intro. I got the basic idea from the Demented Cartoon Movie. Basically only the plot belongs to us (us being Salutation and I)

The title “The New Powers”refers to a lot of things that will take place…like the head fangirls
acquiring elvish magic and all that jazz lol…

That being said…Here is The New Powers-Part one!!!!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Feature presentation thing…

Salutation and Perpendicular present…

A Salutation and Perpendicular production …

Of a Salutation and Perpendicular film…

The Gopher of the Thing: The New Powers [abridged version]…

The End

We are sorry for the proceeding scene. It would have made a whole lot more sense
(well, not really) if the actual intro. were for this film were completed.
Unfortunately it isnÂ’t due to general laziness. This parody will now continue in…

Pippin: What IÂ’VE done?! YouÂ’re the one who stole the knife!!!

Merry:???

To Saruman in Orthanc…

Saruman: Now that I have the shoes I can go about my plan to rule the world! *maniacal laughter*
Together The Lord of Mordor and I will be unstoppable!

“Sauron”: Yeah, together. *laughs*

Saruman: What?! I have just as much power as you! I donÂ’t have to follow your orders!

“Sauron”: Go make the army bigger!

Saruman: Yes, master.

Frodo and Sam…

*they are climbing down a mountain on SamÂ’s rope*
Frodo: IÂ’m gonna fall!!

Sam:…

*Frodo falls*

Frodo: *screams* TOLD YA!!!

Sam: YouÂ’re still paranoid.

Frodo: Just because IÂ’m paranoid doesnÂ’t mean there arenÂ’t people following me!

Sam:…

*they hear footsteps*

Frodo: SEE!!

Sam:…

To Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli….

Gimli: IÂ’m hungry.

Legolas: My hair is messed up.

Aragorn: *falls* Okay! Maybe ONE five minute break

Gimli: *grabs the Lembas*

Legolas: *grabs a mirror and a brush*

5 minutes later…

Aragorn: Okay break over! Move along!!

Gimli: *with a stuffed mouth* Yesh Aiagon…

Pippin: Are we there yet?

Orc: No.

One hour later….

Orc: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Pippin:…Are we there yet???

Orc: ACK!

To Merry…
Merry: So…youÂ’re fired ballerinas?

Orc: Yes… I dunno why they fired us. *Orc in tutu runs up, does a leap, and lands on his face*

Other Orc: Okay, bad example…

Merry: What happened to your faces???

Orc: Oh, our new boss wonÂ’t let us wear make up.

Merry: Ooooooh…

To Pippin…

Pippin: Are-

Orc: No!

Pippin: Fine then!

To Frodo & Sam…

*Sam has finally made it down from the mountain*

*it starts to rain*

Frodo: And then I said, “Something’s coming”, and she said, “You’re odd”.
Then she slaps me, and- Sam…are you listening…?

Sam: Ugh!

Later…

*scary little creature climbs down wall*

*Frodo snores loudly*

Frodo: *while asleep* SomethingÂ’s *yawn* coming. *turns over*

Sam: *yawns* Paranoid.

Gollum: ItÂ’s just like a computer game!

Frodo: Aaaaah! *wakes up* I heard “computer”. Wake up, Sam!

Sam: *grabs Sting and puts it to GollumÂ’s throat.

Gollum: Okay, you win!

Sam: WhatÂ’s your name???

Gollum: Bill Gates no…no Gollum.

Frodo: What do you know about the “internet”, little almost bald man?

Gollum: *gives four hour speech* And thatÂ’s internet!

Frodo & Sam: *twitch* *snore*

Frodo: So, what were the gorilla and the squirrel for???

Gollum: Never mind that.

Frodo: But-

Gollum: No buts.

Frodo: Well, why did you have to kidnap the elephant?

Sam: Oliphant *snores*

Gollum:…

Frodo: Answer me!!!

Gollum: No! *starts running away*

Frodo: Sam! Wake up!

Sam: Huh? *blinks stupidly*

Frodo: Bill um…wait…I mean Gollum is getting away!

Sam: Oh…*stand up and makes a lasso. Throws it & catches Gollum*

*Gollum pulls back*

Gollum: Noooo! It burns! It is unsoiled of computer technology! Aaahhh! How it burns! *sobs*

Frodo: What is your REAL name? No mother in their right mind would name their child Gollum!

Gollum: *still sobbing* I told you Bill Gates! Okay!

Sam: No mother in their right mind would name their child after that filthy man!
The elves abolished his horrible Windows ‘95 centuries ago!

Gollum: *starts crying harder* DonÂ’t remind me!

Frodo: What is your real name?!?

Gollum: Bill g-…oh…let me see here…Smores…no…Smear…Smeagol. There, happy?

Sam: Much better.

Gollum, Smeagol, or Bill: What are your names.

Frodo: Frodo and Sam.

Smeagol: Frodo? What kind of mother would name their child Frodo?!

Frodo: *eyes start to water* I donÂ’t wanna talk about it. Hey, you wanna come with us to Mordor??

Gollum: Sure why not.

To Merry and Pippin…

*Rohirrim attack & kill orcs*

Pippin: Okay road trip over. LetÂ’s go aimlessly run into those woods.*points*

Merry: Okay!

To Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli…

Legolas: Are we there ye-

Aragorn: NOOOO!!!!!

Legolas: Could you at least straighten your hair? It looks like a tangle of vines!

Aragorn:…

1 hour later…

Aragorn: WhereÂ’s Gimli?

Legolas: I dunno…*they look around*

*Legolas looks behind them & squints*

Legolas: Oh, there he is.

Aragorn: *turns around* Where?

Legolas: That little black spot just on the horizon…

Aragorn: *shields eyes & squints* Oh! I thought that was a rock! ItÂ’s barely moving…

To Gimli…
Gimli: *pants heavily* Almost…there…must…continue…cross…-country…so…very…far…

*they hear horses*

Aragorn: Ahhh! Hide! Forget about the slow Dwarf! Every man for himself!

Legolas: But IÂ’m not a man!

Aragorn: Okay every Man, Elf, and Dwarf for himself! You happy? Now run!

*they hide by a REAL rock*

Minutes later…

*Man is holding Gimli by the legs*

Gimli: AHHH!! Put me down!

*Aragorn & Legolas appear*

Legolas: Put the Dwarf down and back away! *pulls out his bow & aims at the man*

Man: ItÂ’s a REAL Dwarf? I thought it was a My Life Size Dwarf doll that could talk!

Aragorn: *tries to conceal his laughter but fails* What do you want a Dwarf doll for?

Man: Ummmm…my daughter.

Other man: You donÂ’t have a daughter, Eomer. You donÂ’t even have a girlfriend…

Eomer: Ummm…he he…

*crowd bursts into laughter*

Eomer: *cries* I never had my own! My sister was greedy and never shared her’s!

Aragorn: Anyway…might you have seen two little people? They were with Orcs.

Eomer: Hey! IÂ’ve seen Orcs! Last night we…killed…them.

Gimli: Dead?

Legolas: Oh well…*all stare at him* What?

Aragorn: You donÂ’t care about Merry & Pippin?!

Legolas: Who?

Gimli:…

Aragorn: You know the Hobbits weÂ’ve been chasing…?

Legolas: Hobbits?! I thought we were looking for my bleach!

Aragorn: I thought Gandalf had it.

Legolas: *cries* DonÂ’t remind me.

Gimli: So…You thought we were looking for Gandalf?

Legolas: Yah.

Aragorn: Gandalf fell. He’s dead. Never coming back.

Legolas:*cries*

Near the black gate…

Sam: *points* We gotta go in there?

Gollum: Yes. *smiles evilly*

Frodo: No! It’s a trap!!

Gollum: Ahh! There on to me! I knew I should have just stayed in my cave and worked on that hard drive.

Sam:…hard drive?????

Gollum: *sigh* *gives 12 hour speech* And that’s a hard drive!

Frodo: So, why did you have to steal the banana?

Gollum: Um…uh…I’d tell you, but then I’d have to kill you.

Frodo: Whatever…

Sam: *snore* *begins to talk in his sleep* I like purple penguins. Don’t you, Mr. Duck?
Mommy, I want my buttercup!

Frodo:…

Gollum:…Anyways, since you think it’s a trick, I will have to show you a back way. You just go up some stairs,
go through a tunnel, and poof! There you are!

Frodo: Okay.

Sam: How can I trust you?

Gollum: Uh… You just… do?!?!?!?!

Frodo: Okay…shall we leave now?

Gollum: Let me check my e-mail…

Frodo; WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Gollum: Uh, well…never mind…*shifts nervously* *silence reigns momentarily*

Sam: I miss all our friends…
Frodo: that was random, but I do too…*stares into space*

Sam: ♪You’re so far away…doesn’t anybody stay in one place anymore???♪

Frodo: *Starts crying*I miss Bilbo, even if he doesn’t ever remember me!!!

Gollum: *Starts crying*I miss all that money!!!! And my mommy!!!!
WAAAHHHH!!!!!
Sam:*sniffles* We should probably leave now before we fall or something and get caught by those scary warriors
down there…*falls down toward the warriors*

Frodo: Why me????

Gollum: I dunno…good question…
Frodo: What ever happened to being just a paranoid freak who could peacefully cower in the shadows???
I always get the responsibility…

Gollum: It could be worse…

Frodo: How?

Gollum: You could have fallen from the top of the financial ladder into a block of concrete and computer parts…

Frodo: ?????

Gollum: *shifts nervously* Ummm…

Frodo: Yes?

Gollum: *Hesitates then stammers* What about Sam?

Frodo: Oh, yeah…*climbs down the cliff and rescues Sam*

Sam: I wish someone would hold my hand…*eyes water*

*Frodo and Gollum Exchange looks of utmost horror*

To Aragorn in his bathtub…
Aragorn: Warm and lovely! *sinks into the bubbles* Oh, what’s this? *picks up a bottle of Shampoo* Wow!
Limited Edition Blueberry Shampoo! COOL!!! *Squirts into his hand*

Legolas: *runs into the bathroom* Do my ears deceive me or did I hear the musical squirt of my
prized Limited Edition Blueberry Shampoo???

Aragorn: Uhhh…
Legolas: *sees Aragorn with a bluish liquid in his hair* *sniffs* NOOOO! My shampoo!
*jumps in and tries to grab shampoo bottle* *they fight over it*

Gimli: *walks up* We really should be going. Maybe Merry and Pippin are still alive.
We need to look anyways and- *sees Aragorn and Legolas* *Legolas and Aragorn stop dead in their tracks*
What are you doing? Never mind…I donÂ’t wanna know. *walks off shaking head* I need a vacation.

Legolas:…Anyways…MINE! *grabs shampoo* HAHA! ITÂ’S MINE! MUHAHAHAHA!
Aragorn: Fine! Take it! You told me to straighten my hair, and I figured why
just straighten it when I can wash it! But whatever you want.

Later…
*they come upon a pile of burning corpses*

Legolas: Sick! *makes face*

Gimli: *pokes pile with axe* Yep. Those orcs are dead alright.

Aragorn: Duh. *looks around* YES! The hobbits were here! *follows tracks* *they lead to Fangorn Forest*
Oh no. No, not me. IÂ’m not going in there.

Gimli: Umm…Legolas should go. He lives in Mirkwood. How different could it be?

Legolas: Well besides the talking trees and the age of the forest not very much, but IÂ’m NOT going alone.

Gimli: T-t-t-talking trees? *shudders*

Legolas: Well yeah. Just…donÂ’t drink the water, and you should be okay.

Aragorn: Okay…so weÂ’ll all go.

Legolas: Hey! Why should we go by your orders? Who died and made you leader?

Aragorn: Gandalf.

Legolas: Point taken.

To Merry and Pippin…
Merry: This wasnÂ’t such a good idea…*looks around at trees* This place is scary!
*sees mushrooms* MUSHROOMS! *starts stuffing face*

Pippin: *joins Merry*

Later…
*Merry is turning green*

Merry: Ugh…I ate too many. *looks around* Pippin?….Pippin?….PIPPIN?!?!?!

Pippin: Merry! HELP!

Merry: Where are you?!

Pippin: Up here!

*Merry looks up*

Merry: What are you doing in a tree?!

Pippin: It picked me up!
Merry: Pippin, have you had Ale today? *tree picks Merry up* AHHHH!

Tree: *Looks at Merry and Pippin* Little orcs! YOU MUST DIE!

Merry and Pippin: NO! WEÂ’RE HOBBITS!

Tree: *squints* Well, so you are. The white wizard will know what to do with you. *bumps into other tree*
OW! Okay moving on…oh here he is! *points to bush* Gandalf, what shall I do with these little people.

Merry: WeÂ’re Hobbits. And youÂ’re talking to a bush.

Tree: Oh…well umm….this may take a while….

Merry: Er…why are you walking towards the edge of that cliff???

Tree: Cliff? *squints* Oh, Cliff!! I thought it was a stream!

Pippin: Can’t breathe…too tight…*gasps for air*

Merry: Errr…Mr. Tree, would you-

Tree: Treebeard’s whatcha call me…

Merry: Well, anyway…maybe you should relax your grip a little because, well, to tell ya the truth-
*Pippin starts turning blue* You’re squeezing my friend to death…

Treebeard: Oh! *screws up eyes and peers at Pippin* I thought you were my stress ball!
*let’s go of Pippin who falls heavily onto the ground*

Merry: Left, sir. Left! LEFT!!! YOU’RE GOING TO STEP ON PIPPIN!!!!!!!!

Treebeard: *barely misses squishing Pippin to death* Oh, I’m terribly sorry!
I’m afraid my eyesight’s not what it used to be!

Merry: Oh, this is just great…

In the Dead Marshes….
*Gollum is babbling about finding the way through the marshes*

Sam: ♪Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old…♪

Frodo: I have the sudden urge to swim…*jumps into marshes*

*scary dead guys come after him and he jumps up through the water (I dunno how) and ten feet into the air*

*Sam and Gollum hold up cards, one says 10, and one says 9.8*

To Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli in the forest…

Legolas: Eeeewwww! I ran into a spider web!

Gimli: Why did you have to stop and take a bath, Aragorn? We’re never going to find them in this mess!

Nearby Tree: Mess!?!?! I have perfectly arranged leaves, thank you!

*They stare at each other and begin running around wildly screaming for someone to help them*

*A blinding flash of white light stops their traumatizing dilemma*

Flash: Halt, Soldiers! What is this behavior worthy of yellow stripes?

Aragorn: *Stares wide-eyed and falls over*

Legolas: The trees are talking to us, WE NEED HELP!, *starts crying*
I havenÂ’t had a shower in two days, and I want my mommy!

Everyone:…

Legolas: *while throwing a fit pulls of shoe and tosses it*

Flash: STOP THIS MADNESS! The poor shoe! *takes shoe and begins talking to it*

Gimli: Wait…I know who that is…GANDALF!

Gandalf: *reveals self and puts on nurse uniform* I think it will live…

Aragorn: Oh here we go…

Legolas: GANDALF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My bleach! What have you done with my bleach, Mithrandir?!
*notices GandalfÂ’s unusually white robe* GANDALF! DID YOU USE IT?!?!

Gandalf: Uh oh…

Legolas: *screams and runs away yelling something about finding more bleach*

A week later…
*Legolas shows up with two bottles of bleach*

Gandalf: Finally! WeÂ’ve been waiting on you!

Legolas: Sorry I had to go all the way to Bree and-

Aragorn: BREE?! *falls*

Gimli: LetÂ’s just go.

Aragorn: So…whatever happened to Merry and Pippin.

Gandalf: Umm…theyÂ’re with Treebeard. I saw them walk by looking for me, but I just hid. With his vision…
I might get stepped on…

Aragorn: So, where to next?

Gandalf: Rohan.

Legolas: Oh great…

To Merry, Pippin, and Treebeard…

Treebeard: *bumps into nearby tree* *again*

Merry: *has concussion from bumping into trees* Look at the little penguins…

Pippin:…

Merry: I see a light.

Pippin: NO, MERRY! DONÂ’T FOLLOW THE LIGHT! ITÂ’S A CAR!…wait…there are no cars in Middle-earth
…okay then…

Merry: AH!! THE SQUIRRELS ARE AFTER ME! And…whatÂ’s this? A CAR! AHH!

Pippin:…

*hits another tree and Merry miraculously comes back to reality*

Merry: Just in time! I was about to get hit by a BMW.

Pippin:…

To Frodo, and Sam…

Sam: *is cooking rabbits Gollum brought*

Gollum: AHH! What are you doing! Your method of cooking is clearly lacking computer technology!
Sam:… ?
Frodo: Computers!!!! AHHH!!!!!! STOP SAYING THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gollum: Oh, sorry…*shifts nervously*

Sam: WHY DO YOU KEEP SHIFTING NERVOUSLY?!?!?!?!?
Gollum: Er…well…nothing!

Sam: TELL ME!!!! WHAT ARE YOU HIDING!?!?!?!?!?!
Gollum: Nothing! *starts sweating* I- I’m not luring you into a t-trap
so that I don’t b-break my promise and l-l-let someone else to
k-k-k-kill you so I can t-take the ring and use it to fuel the
b-best computer s-software ever created!
I-I’m not hiding ANYTHING!!!!!! *shifts nervously*
Sam: Oh, that’s good, otherwise I would have to go against my
gentle Hobbit habits and terminate you.
*Gollum makes a frightened squeak**Sam continues cooking*
♪ There’s bread and cheese up on the shelf uh-hum, uh-hum…♪

To Merry and Pippin at the Ent gathering…
Merry: *yawns* How long have we been here?
Pippin: *looks at the sinking sun* 8 hours is my guess.
Merry: *looks over at the Ents* And Treebeard said he would tell us when the opening comments were over…
8 hours just for the opening comments?????

Over to the Ents…
Treebeard- So, what are we here for again?
Ent-dunno…
Other Ent-Er…huh?
Quickbeam: Oh! *looks excitedly at a powder he has*
Forgetful powder really does work!

Treebeard: How do you know?
Quickbeam: I canÂ’t remember…
Ents:…

To Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli…

Legolas: My hair is messed up.

Gimli: IÂ’m hungry.

Aragorn: My sword is too heavy.

Legolas:…My hair is STILL messed up.

Gandalf: No more complaining! *whistles* Come, Shadowfax!

*Shadowfax gallops to the top of the hill looking very heroic*

Shadowfax: Fly away! *jumps off hill and tries to fly* *falls*

Aragorn: Yay! IÂ’m not alone!

*Shadowfax finally regains his composure, and trots over to Gandalf*

Gandalf: This is Shadowfax, the lord of all horses.

Shadowfax: Yeah, sorry IÂ’m late. I had a little…problem.

Gimli: Ah! It talks! *runs back into forest*

Legolas: Oh come on, Gimli!

Aragorn: Yeah! HavenÂ’t you ever heard of Mr. Ed, the talking horse?!
Gimli: No! IÂ’m not coming out…no matter how much I hate this stupid forest.
*Ent overhears and picks Gimli up* Ahhh! Help me!

To Frodo and Sam…

*They are playing Monopoly (LotR edition of course!)

Frodo: 6! 1,2,3,4,5,6. I landed on Isengard.

Sam: I own that, and I own the rest of the yellow property too
so thatÂ’s *Reads card* uh huh you owe me 48 power.

Frodo: I donÂ’t have 48 power! I only have 32!

Sam: Then I win! You have to give me everything and retire
from the game, and since weÂ’re the only ones playing, I win!

Frodo: No! That means I go to jail!

Sam: No, I doesnÂ’t! IÂ’ll show you in the rules.
*Sam cannot find rule book*

*While the Hobbits argue, they do not hear GollumÂ’s
warning of an approaching Nazgul*
*Nazgul picks up Frodo*

*it takes Frodo to Mordor and stands him in front of an over-grown gopher*

Gopher: Tell me what you know of The One Ring.

Frodo:…this ring…is it a golden band that changes size to fit itÂ’s wearer
and corrupts them?

Gopher: Yes!

Frodo: Also does Elvish writing appear when placed in fire?

Gopher: Yeah!

Frodo: Was it forged by a dark lord in a volcano, the one place it can be destroyed?

Gopher: BY THE VALAR YES!!!!

Frodo: Never heard of it.

Gopher: Darn! Okay youÂ’re free to go.

Frodo: Yay!

Gopher: Stupid Nazgul…
Nazgul: *pouts**thinks and then remembers he is half dead so
he only has half a brain and can only think half the time and decides
that Lord Gopher-Pants was right about him being stupid*
*takes Frodo back to Sam and Gollum*

Over to Gimli and the EntÂ…

Gimli: Ahhh!!!

Ent: What did you say about this forest? *growls*

Gimli: *thinks frantically* ErrÂ…
UmmmÂ…well, letÂ’s seeÂ…I said it was beautiful and
homely and green and wonderful and-

Ent: No you didnÂ’t! You saidÂ…*looks puzzled*
Well, I canÂ’t seem to rememberÂ…*sneezes*
Stupid powder stuff of QuickbeamÂ’s!
I guess youÂ’re free to go thenÂ…

Gimli: *looks relieved* Thank you, Sir.

Ent: *drops Gimli because he forgot he was there*

Over to Frodo, Sam, and GollumÂ…

Frodo: I hate you, Sam! *cries bitterly*

Sam: Well, itÂ’s not my fault you lost the game! *Pouts*

Frodo: You didnÂ’t follow the rules and thatÂ’s why I lost!

Sam: I did too! You just didnÂ’t want to lose the gameÂ…
You always beat me, anyways! It was my turn to win!

Gollum: Now, look here you two! *puts hand on hips*
If I hear just one more word out of you IÂ’llÂ…

Sam: Spank us? *smirks childishly*

Frodo: Boil us in a big pot of oil until out hair falls out and our skin peels?
*shudders at the thought then smirks*

Both: Big Deal! *giggle at their smart mouthed joke*

Gollum: No! IÂ’ll send you right to that gang of
scary men riding those huge animal things and let them give you a lecture!

Sam and Frodo: No! Anything but that!

Sam: *ponders* WaitÂ…*comprehension dawns on his face* Oh, Them!

*they all run over and look at the evil men going to join the ranks of Lord Gopher-Pants*

Frodo: Wow! Look! A parade!

Sam and Gollum:Â…

Back to Merry and PippinÂ…
Merry: *randomly steals PippinÂ’s shoe and then puts it back and repeats process*
IÂ’m getting bored with thisÂ…

Pippin: *Is counting his shiny object collection for the 973rd time* Me tooÂ…

Both: *sigh*

*Treebeard and Quickbeam walk over to them*

Treebeard: This is Quickbeam. HeÂ’ll keep you company while we finish our meeting.
It should be over soon now that we remember what we were doingÂ…
*glances at Quickbeam who smiles guiltily*

Merry and Pippin: Cool!

To Gandalf & co. (look IÂ’m not gonna write down all those names!!!)…

*Gimli runs back out of the forest*

Gandalf: Finally! Now we can go!

Legolas: Nope! IÂ’m tanning! IÂ’ll be done in a sec.

12 hours later…

*Legolas is starting to smoke*
Aragorn: Legolas…erm.

Legolas: Okay, IÂ’m done!

*notices Gimli staring*

Legolas: What is it, Gimli?

Gimli: Ummm…*hands Legolas a mirror*
Legolas: *looks in mirror and discovers he is a bright cherry red*
*cries* Where are my fangirls when I need them?!

*Fangirls run past chasing a llama*

Llama: No! ItÂ’s me! Emperor Kuzco!

Fangirls: We donÂ’t care!!!!

*1 fangirl lunges toward llama* *she is…well…scary beyond all reason*
*llama escapes her grip and runs frantically*

Fangirl: Wait! Come back!

Legolas:…*cries*

Gandalf: DonÂ’t worry! I can fix it! *says spell*

*Legolas turns into a squirrel*

Gandalf: Oops…

Legolas: Squeaker squeak squeaken! *cries* *again*
Gandalf:…I donÂ’t speak squirrel.

*a random guy comes up and starts speaking to Legolas*

Guy: Squeaker squeak squeak?

Legolas: squeakedy squeak squeaken.

Guy: He says change him back. *runs off in the direction of the fangirls*

Gandalf: *changes Legolas back but he is still sunburnt*
Legolas: *sigh*

Later in Rohan…
*as they are about to enter the hall of Meduseld (SP?!?!?!?! *twitch*)

Hama: Like, Gandalf, dude. Grima like, totally orders you to like,
give me your weapons, like totally.

*the group hands him their weapons*

Hama: Your staff, dude.

Gandalf: Stop with the dudeÂ’s!!!

Hama: Sure thing, du-…uh…I mean Gandalf.

*Gandalf & co. enter*

Gandalf: Hail, Theoden! May your shoes never wear thin!
*Bows then polishes shoes before getting back up*
*looks expectantly around & then looks puzzled*
Theoden, where is your trusty shoe-shiner, Eomer?

Theoden: *yawns then replies wheezily* HeÂ’s been falling down on the job lately.
All he cares about are his bacon & eggs & his new My Life Size Dwarf doll.

Gandalf: Young people these days are so weird…

Theoden: Tell me about it! They think that ruling the world is a bad thing!

Gandalf: *looks suspicious* Have you been talking to Saruman?

Theoden: Err…*turns to Wormtongue who frantically shakes his head* No!
Legolas: *notices Wormtongue for the first time* Hey, I know who you are!
YouÂ’re on the FangirlÂ’s 10 Most Wanted list!
ArenÂ’t you the llama liberation leader or something?

Wormtongue: Erm…

Legolas: Gasp! You ARE arenÂ’t you?! Llama lover!!!

Wormtongue: Not so loud! *lowers voice* TheyÂ’ll hear you!

Theoden: Grima, are you really on the llamasÂ’ side?!

Wormtongue: TheyÂ’re all lying, My Lord!

Legolas: What?! You think IÂ’m lying?!?!?! IÂ’m calling my fangirls! *whistles*

Wormtongue: Noooo!!! IÂ’m must hide! Leave the country! Mommy! *cries*

*fangirls pop up*

Fangirl # 3,713: Yes, Legolas, you called?

Legolas: *points to Wormtongue* HeÂ’s on your Top 10 Most Wanted list,
& he thinks IÂ’m lying about him being part of the L.L.C.!
(Llama Liberation Committee)

Gandalf & co.: *GASP*

Fangirl #43 (fangirl leader): There is only one way to know for sure!
Bring out the hostage!

*fangirls drag up a haunted looking llama*

Legolas: Llama, what do you know of this man? *points to Grima*

Llama: ThatÂ’s him! HeÂ’s the one who turned me back into a llama!

Grima: You traitor filth!

Llama: IÂ’m not Traitor Filth! IÂ’m Emperor Kuzco!

Fangirl # 1,573,428.6: *clears throat nervously. She is…well…scary beyond all reason!*
No youÂ’re not! I found you plotting against Legolas in a pasture!

Llama: *sees fangirl #1,573,428.6* Ysma! How did you get out of kitten-form?!
WhereÂ’s Kronk?!

Ysma: Err…no, IÂ’m not Ysma! IÂ’m fangirl #1,573,428.6!

Legolas: Enough of this madness! WeÂ’ve found out what we need to know!
Take him away!

*Fangirls drag llama away*

Llama: No, wait! IÂ’m Emporer Kuzco! I want my lawyer!

*Fangirls and llama disappear*

Gimli: That was really weird…

Gandalf: I told you that getting male secretaries always leads to dirty shoes!
*makes his shoes sparkle in the dim light*
*notices TheodenÂ’s court members all have dirty shoes* *grimaces*

Theoden: *sighs* YouÂ’re right as always, Gandalf. Hama, take Grima, &
kick him out of Edoras in that way thatÂ’s so painful.

Hama: My pleasure, dude sir! *drags WT out of hall screaming & kicking*

Gandalf: I thought Eowyn was your secretary.

Theoden: *sighs* Ever since the WestfoldÂ’s been under attack,
she has to go & risk her life to save everyone .
We had to chain her up in th dungeon.

Gandalf: I think weÂ’re going to need her. Aragorn, go bring her up here
while Theoden & I have a discussion about a new shoe-shining program…

To Frodo, Sam, and Gollum at the “parade”…
Frodo: Hey…whereÂ’s all the balloons?

Sam:…

Gollum: WouldnÂ’t it be awesome to create a computer software
that could hack into those warriorsÂ’ minds?

Frodo & Sam:…*twitch* *blink*

Gollum: He he…just kidding…

Frodo: If this is a parade how come theyÂ’re arenÂ’t any scary clowns? *shudders*

Sam: Uh, Frodo…?

Frodo: Yeah.

Sam: ItÂ’s not a parade…

Frodo: *shocked silence then…* WHAT?!?!?! No, parade?!?!?!
*eyes water* I want a balloon! *weeps bitterly*

Sam & Gollum:…

To Merry, Pippin, & Quickbeam…

Merry: Are Ent gatherings always this long?

Quickbeam: TheyÂ’re usually loads longer!

*Merry and Pippin frown*

Pippin: IÂ’m bored…*sits down on rock & makes rude noise*
Merry: Pippin! ThatÂ’s rude!

Pippin: I didnÂ’t so it! *pulls whoopie cushion out from beneath him* Merry!

Merry: What? I didnÂ’t put that there!

Quickbeam: *tries to conceal laughter but fails*

Merry & Pippin: *turn to Quickbeam* You!

*random, awkward silence*

*they all burst out laughing*

To Saruman in Isengard…

Saruman: *laughs evilly as he finger paints all over the Uruk-haiÂ’s shiny armor*
He he he…who says first-graders get to have all the fun???

*orc in sheer purple skirt & tap shoes walks in on him*

Orc: Boss, what are you doing?

Saruman: *wipes hands on ropes quickly* Nothing! *notices skirt and shoes*
What are you doing?

Orc: Er…well…

Saruman: Hurry up! IÂ’ve got a world to conquer!

Orc: The Nazgul wanted us to be in their new musical and-

Saruman: What?! The nazgul?! *slowly counts to 10 & then takes a deep breath*
Now, be a good lad, and tell all your brothers and sisters…

Orc: Yes?

Saruman: TO CUT IT OUT WITH THE DANCING AND HELP ME
CONQUER THE WORLD!

*orc runs out in a hurry*

Saruman: *sighs deeply* Orcs these days…no wonder it got so hard to rule the world…
*continues finger painting*

To Minas Morgul…

The Agony Quartet: ♪Sung by the Agony- Quartet! Almost dead, but- not yet!♪ *they fall*

Nat (A.k.a. Their choreographer): Screech! Serch Screak Streech Schree!
(No! ItÂ’s stomp, stomp, smile! Not stomp, smile, fall!)

Ed (A.k.a. Their Manager): *talking on cell phone* Screech??? Scree shractch screech!
(Really? Of course we will!) *hangs up* Shcreeak! Scre Scrak Screech scretch scree scrah!
(Listen! Lord Gopher-Pants wants us to do a concert for his entire evil host! This is our big break!
If we pull this off we might get real bodies again!)

Nat: *claps hands together* Screa, schree screctch chee screechee chee schreechb!
(Well, I guess we better start working on our routine! Stomp, Stomp, clap!)

To Aragorn in the dungeon…

Aragorn: *reaches bottom of steps and slips* *falls flat on face* Oww…

Eowyn: WhoÂ’s there?

Aragorn: Just me, Aragorn son of Arathorn, IsildurÂ’s heir & rightful King of Gondor. ThatÂ’s all.
*peers into the gloomy cell*

Eowyn: I think thatÂ’s cool. Why are you on the ground?

Aragorn: *gets up* I find myself on the ground a lot lately…

Eowyn: Really? Why?

Aragorn: Well, itÂ’s a rather embarrassing, but maybe someday IÂ’ll tell you…
Why are you locked up in this cell?

Eowyn: Well, I just wanted to go and save all my people from the stupid dancing Uruk-Hai,
because they killed my cousin.

Aragorn: Really? ThatÂ’s tragic!

Eowyn: One did an awkward little spin and distracted him long enough for a couple of others
to leap elegantly through the air & stab him viciously through the weak parts of his armor.

Aragorn: Talk about adding insult to injury! *pauses* What do you do to pass the time???

Eowyn: Read comic books. What else? I love comic books!

Aragorn: Uh huh…Well, I’m supposed to bring you to Theoden and Gandalf. Where’s the key to this cell?

Eowyn: Oh, it’s not locked. The keys to these stupid shackles however are hanging over there.

Aragorn: Okay! *gets keys & unlocks Eowyn’s shackles* *Their hands touch, their eyes meet*

Sam’s voice: ♪So, this is love, ooooo, so this is l♡ve… ♪

Aragor & Eowyn: Shut up!

*singing stops abruptly*

Aragorn: Uh oh *falls*

Eowyn: *helps him up* Are you okay???

Aragorn: Yeah, I guess…You’re not going to laugh at me are you? My girlfriend always laughs at me…

Eowyn: You have a girlfriend?! *pouts then smiles sweetly* Oh, no!
I’m not going to laugh at you! I think it’s very cute the way you fall down so heroically!

Aragorn: *beams* Really??

Eowyn: Why of course!

Aragorn: *sighs and falls*

Over to Merry, Pippin, & Quickbeam…

Merry: My favorite practical joke to play on people is to steal something important,
like their sofa, and then put it in a strange place for them to find like their neighbor’s roof!

Pippin: So that was you who did that?! I thought it was Fatty Bolger!

Merry: *smiles impishly*

Pippin: I’ll get you for that but I’m still
BORED!!

Merry: Hey, Pip, we could ask the author’s for something to do. Salutation, Perpendicular,
…could we get some entertainment here??

Booming Voice from above: Sure, guys. Give us a second while we go round up the Legolas fangirls.

Pippin: Wow…*stares up at the sky in awe* *suddenly scowls*
Wait a minute…aren’t they the ones that made us bored in the first place?

Merry: Well….

Pippin: YOU ARE EVIL, SALUTATION AND PERPENDICULAR! EVIL!!!
*branch falls on his head* Ow…
Booming voice: Now then. Pippin, behave or next time it will be a tree.

*Pippin shudders*

Booming voice: Your entertainment will arrive shortly…

*a parade suddenly marches by*

*a clown losses his balloons*

Clown: My balloons!

To Frodo, Sam, and Gollum…

Frodo: *is still crying bitterly*

Sam: *hums lightly to himself*

Frodo: I’m going to run away! *runs into a man who grabs him*
AHH! *twitch*

Sam: *follows Frodo and is also captured*

Frodo: *twitch* WHO ARE YOU?!?!?!
*balloon floats by and he catches it and smiles*

Man: I am Faramir. I come from Ithilien. Please surrender if you’re…willin’??

Frodo: Erm…okay…

Other man: *sigh* He means we are taking you to Ithilien.

Frodo: Erm…okay…*stares at balloon*

To somewhere in Rohan…

Theoden: *weeps bitterly over Theodred’s grave*

*Gandalf walks up*

Gandalf: Don’t cry…think of it this way: His shoes are still okay.

Theoden: *cries even more bitterly*

*suddenly 2 children ride up on a horse*

*one falls of, asleep*

(cuts to scene in Meduseld)

Eowyn: *trying to be dramatic* The Orcs are going to attack us!

Boy: So…many…tutus… *twitch*

Legolas: Ya know…he reminds me of someone…

Gandalf: We must stay and fight.

Theoden: No, we flee to Helm’s Deep.

Gandalf: Stay and fight.

Theoden: Flee to Helm’s Deep.

Gandalf: Fight!

Theoden: Flee!

Gandalf: Fight!

Theoden: Flee!

Gandalf: Fight!

Theoden: I AM KING AND I SAY WE FLEE!!!

Aragorn: I thought I was king…

Gandalf: Ugh! Do whatever you want! I’m leaving this insane place! *marches off*

Theoden: Hama! *Hama walks up* Tell everyone to flee to Helm’s Deep!

Hama: Yeah, Dude! *walks off*
