O_O...What if, indeed! *shiver* I'm so glad Merry's all right, though...and really glad this didn't happen!! ~Kaylee!
Author's reply
Yes, this one's a tough concept to handle. Thank you for reading and reviewing, Kaylee :-)

Hadn't ever thought about that sort of thing happening. I was suprized that Merry would do that expically to Pippin!! but it did make scence, what Pippin had said about it being the ring. I really liked this!!

Well done!! It spooked me out to think of Merry deliberately "running through" Pippin, but I can see how the Ring might have had that kind of effect if it had wanted to.

This is great! The ring always seems to get to Merry in stories, but this story seems to be like the most 'realistic' if you take my meaning. I had a feeling Merry was going to stab Pippin and when he did, I was still shocked! I'm in awe of this story...wonderful job!

WOW! I just loved that! I never really thought about the ring having power over the Hobbits, and definately never thought that Merry could ever harm Pippin. That's why I loved your story soooo much, it made me think "what if" Very unique and very well written. Well done!

Oh, very clever, sister. The Prof didn't really discuss what effect the Ring had on many of the members of the Fellowship. I must admit it was quite frightening to see Cousin Merry hurt our dear little brother, but that Ring can do strange things to people. Great work!

How unusual this is!! I must say I like it a lot; I had NO idea how it would end and I couldn't wait to find out. Thank you for a great read = thoroughly enjoyable!!

This is amazing! I never thought about this sort of thing. I guess I assumed that the ring didn't get to anyone but Boromir before Frodo and Sam took off. This is very good and an area that I don't believe anyone has touched upon. If they did, I missed it. I felt so awful for Merry and for Pippin! Strider handled it so well. Love it!
