*Driving through the dark she sees a figure loom up out of the darkness.  Swerves to avoid the skeletal figure but is held for a moment by the dark, luminous eyes.* What on Middle-Earth is that! *Her face is etched with terror, her hands grip the wheel tightly. In the panic the car veers sharply to the left and hits a large, jagged rock, tearing the tyre. The car limps on slowly.* Everyone lock their doors! |

Luthien, are you saying that our doors weren't already locked? Because I remember myself locking my door *looks down at door, which currently is unlocked. she puts a confused face on and locks it again* done.

here rhia... *helps her tack the map back on the dashboard for easier reading. looks back up just in time to see a dark figure in the road; as they approach, slowing down, the headlamps light it up. shadows are cast behind a spindly structure with twiglike fingers and limbs askew, and a rough brownish look to the skin.* wha... are you an ent? *is uncertain, not having actually seen one before. her attention is momentarily diverted by the rumbling of an engine. looks to the left and sees the elf car trundling along the side of the road.
*glances back to where the thing was, but finds it to have vanished. drives on and, against her competative streak, slows down by the elves and winds down her window.* are you three alright? do you know what that was, on the road?
(ooc: rhia, as i probably won't be here for the rest of the race, would you switch places wiht me and drive, please?)

*Hastily winds down the window. Her eyes wide with fear.* No we're not alright. That was a Barrow-wight, a phantom, I'm sure of it! And we've got a flat tyre. And I think we all need to get out of here as quickly as possible. I don't care about the race I just want to get back to the Shire.  |

*sighs tiredly* You know this exactly like a dream I used to have... I used to be so scared of it... and now that it's really happening it feels like a dream *yawns and thinks of what to do, although her mind feels like it's going to break down on her before she gets anywhere with her ideas*

I say we abandon the Elf car. Let's get a lift with the rangers. We can't possibly change the tyre with all these 'things' around. I think I may have damaged the front of the car as well.  |

*Drives through the Shire sending a couple of hobbits running for their lives.*
Get out of the road, halflings!
We must be nearing the finish line Elidor.

The Mayor of Shire stood on the platform, announcing the winner, not feeling very happy about it...

*Pushes the mayor of the platform and raises his arms triumphantly to the waiting crowds ( or the 3 hobbits and their pig)*
Where are the others?

*Has taken Firebird's seat.* OK everybody, close your eyes, fasten your seatbelt and grab a hold. Here we go.* Shifts gear and pushes the gas pedal down to the bottom.... The car jumps forward and gains speed rapidly. Suddendly the elves' car becomes visible.* Hey, they seem be in trouble. * Brakes and opens the door.* What's wrong?
