A futuristic LOTR.

[Alcarillo]

I'm continuing my little story:

The One Disc was lost in a storm drain, and now lay in a sewer. There it lingered for a long time until one day, two septic workers came walking along the sewer's edge (I'm no sewer expert, but isn't there a walkway along the side or something?) and spied the One Disc lying before their feet. These septic workers were brothers named Smeagol and Deagol. Deagol saw it first and picked it up, and both knew that it must be amazingly powerful (the label said so)

"Deagol, it's my birthday today," said Smeagol, "won't you give that to me as a gift?"

"I already gave you some perfectly good socks," said Deagol, "You've always wanted everything I have." He muttered something about greedy siblings.

Smeagol shoved him. "Please, it's my birthday."

Deagol shoved back. "No!"

Smeagol pushed him into the sewer and grabbed the disc. "Noooooo!" screamed Deagol as the sewer swept him down into the depths of who-knows-where.

Now, when their boss didn't see Deagol show up that evening he called the police, and Detective Baggins showed up with thirteen police officers. It was when Detective Baggins interrogated Smeagol that he confiscated the One Disc as evidence, and, because of the One Disc's mysterious allure, he kept it and never gave it up to the crime lab.

More later!
