To The End

A challenge from http://community.livejournal.com/great_tales/ to write a story in 55 words. And to think I used to think I couldn't write a drabble and now this is just half 1/2 a drabble and I still did it! :)

“You are quite taken by Mr. Frodo, aren’t you, Sam-lad?” Belle said, smiling.

“Oh yes, Mum! I’d follow him to the end of the earth!”

“To the end,” Sam murmured as the Mountain erupted around them.

As the earth fell behind and the Straight Road began, Sam marveled that he now followed beyond the end.
