The Hobbits and Halflings
by: Unknown
You thought for a moment, looking back seeing
that Drak well hidden within the shadowy crevices of the surrounding forest has not decided to follow you on your short journey.
Shrugging your head with satisfaction though
in admiration at the thought of how loyal such a
friend beast can be.Drak has saved you many times on many occasions but a man does have his
pride.You decide Bilbos will probably be the best source for the information you are seeking,
as you notice a few hobbits and halflings
mingling at the edge of the settlement.
Shaking you head you feel discusted at having
to address the small group they appeared
happy in preperation of the celebrated event
Bilboses 111 party.You are glad you did not decide on Gandalf for your inquiries.
It was common that hobbits and halflings live
among eachother but usually they were constantly
bickering.Halflings are discusting little moody creatures you think.Hobbits are much more easier
to deal with.You walk up to the small group
that is eying you with curiosity and contempt.
You have dealt with them before.
"Well what have we here"?You ask the group.
"My do you all realise that today is an special
occasion"?Both hobbits and halfling begin to
chatter amongst eachother and nod in agreement.
With a smile on your face the group believes
is for them,you think to yourself that this will
be easy .A hobbit named thrimwit moves
closer to you appearing brighter than the rest
and says"You are here for the great years
celebration of the kingdoms master"?He snorted.
"Well most certainly you replied."And might
you please tell me where Bilbos is residing at
this time"?I need to speak with him urgently.
"And of course congradualate him on his day".
"Yes"Yes"Thrimwit replied.The others still
bobbing their heads only this time in agreement.
A snarling little halfling named Pylo runs ahead
of of you after Thrimwit smacks his back.
"Bilbos this way"!Bilbos this way"! he points
out while jumping."Why thank you"!You say as
your walking past him pointing to a long winding
clearing through more forest."Bilbos that way"!
Pylo yells again."One mile"!"One mile"!He adds.
You continue walking and walking thinking about
Drak.Hoping he does not get into any trouble.
You see more paths ahead of you as you walk up to them you stop and scratch your head.
The annoyance and anger starts to build up
inside of you and decide hobbits are no better
then halflings.Your staring at four clear paths
at the end of the one your on not sure which
path to take you.
