When we last saw the Hobbit Squad, they had left their beloved Shire to find their friend Esmerelda.
But after three days of searching Middle Earth....
"Nothing. Absolutely nothing. She is no where to be found."
Frodo sat himself on the ground and refused to move.
"We can't stop looking for her."
Primrose yanked him to his feet.
"And take off those stupid sunglasses."
Berylla added.
"But it's my look!"
"You like a nerd."
Bilbo laughed.
"I do not!"
"Hey guys. I just thought of a funny joke."
No one listened to Pippin who was still holding his boom mic.
"Where on Middle Earth could she be?"
Sam groaned.
"I really want to tell you guys my joke."
"I've texted everyone we know asking if they've seen her but no one has."
Merry looked at his phone with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Actually, it looks like everyone is searching for missing
animals."
"Can I please tell you guys my joke?"
"What is it Pippin?"
Frodo sighed.
"What do you call a dumb orc?"
"What?"
"A dork! Get it? Because they're dumb!"
"Hilarious."
The other hobbits rolled their eyes.
Merry patted him on the shoulder, he still had his camera with him.
"It was a good effort Pip."
"Thanks buddy."
"YOU!"
The Hobbit Squad jumped as Lindir suddenly appeared out of no where.
"What the Mordor are you doing?"
Frodo asked angrily.
"You stole ThunderPuff!"
"What?"
"You tried to steal him that one time, and now you did it again!
Give him back!"
"I don't have your cat!"
"Yes you do!"
"No I don't!"
"You sit on a throne of lies!"
"Lindir calm down!"
Melwin, Chole Ann, and Luna appeared behind Lindir.
"He stole ThunderPuff!"
He pointed at Frodo.
"I did not!"
"Lindir, take a deep breath, and settle down."
Melwin and Chole Ann forced Lindir to sit down while Luna tried to straighten things out.
"Sorry, ThunderPuff ran away and Lindir's worried sick, you haven't seen him have you?"
"Nope. We've been trying to find our friend, Esmerelda."
Frodo replied.
"Actually, according to these texts I recieved, Aragorn and Legolas are trying to find Thranduil's elk, and Vili's trying to find Foe Hammer, and Thorin's been searching everywhere for Fili and Kili."
Merry struggled to read the texts and hold up his camera.
"This is so weird. Why are three pets and three friends missing?"
Pippin scratched his head trying to figure it out.
"Something's going on and I intend to find out."
Melwin declared.
Everyone else voiced their agreement.
"The problem is, we have no idea where they are."
Sam sighed.
"We'll find them. And there's only one to do that."
Chole Ann announced.
"How?"
Berylla asked.
"Everyone is looking for something, so we all need to look for everyone's somethings together."
"How will that help?"
Bilbo asked.
"I have a feeling that we're all going to be meeting up together anyway so we might as well do it now."
Everyone agreed that that sounded good.
Merry texted everyone else and told them where to meet. Once the last text was sent he turned to the others.
"We're all ready!"
So the Hobbit Squad and the elves went to the meeting place that Merry had picked out especially for this emergency.
----
"Why are we always meeting in a shwarma joint?"
Frodo asked.
"No idea."
Vili said as she shifted uncomfortably between Bard and Ayleen.
"It's convient. Ow! Aragorn move over!"
Losider shoved him into Feren who accidently smacked his head against Lindir's.
"Ow!"
"Sorry!"
"Stop pushing!"
"You stop pushing!"
"I'm not pushing!"
"Yes you are!"
Now everyone started arguing over who was shoving who.
Meanwhile, the Avengers were watching them in amusement.
"Why are they all sitting at one booth?"
Black Widow asked.
"No clue."
Hawkeye took a bite of his shwarma.
"I can't believe that all twenty- three of them managed to fit in that small booth."
Iron Man said.
"Um... Guys?"
"What is it Cap?"
Iron Man asked.
"You do all realize that we are all crowded in one booth."
"I forgot that there's ten of now."
Hawkeye commented.
"Don't you mean eleven?"
Falcon asked.
"What do you mean eleven?"
War Machine looked at him in confusion.
"What about Quicksilver?"
"He ran off to join the X-Men or something."
Scarlet said in annoyance.
Meanwhile Batman and Superman were sitting at their own table drinking coffee.
"Is it just me or is it really crowded in here today?"
Batman asked.
"It's just you. Only three tables have people at them."
Superman took a sip of his coffee.
"Why don't we have a group to hang out with?"
Batman asked.
"Why do you want a group?"
"Well, they have their guys over their."
Batman looked over at the Avengers' tables.
"And they seriously need to get another table or something."
Batman gestured over to the very overcrowded table.
"Why do you care so much?"
Superman asked.
"I'm just sayin, everyone has a group, and we still have almost five movies to go before we get our Justice League."
Batman took a sip of his coffee.
"And you and I have to fight for two and half hours before we realize that we have to work together and not against each other."
"Wait a minute, you've been spening months trying to pick a fight with me, and now that it's happening you suddenly want to chicken out."
Superman narrowed his eyes at Batman.
"I don't want to chicken out. I just want to move on already. Everyone's been waiting for a Justice League movie for years."
"You're just jealous of the Avengers aren't you?"
"I'm not jealous. I'm Batman."
"I saw that coming."
Superman groaned.
Meanwhile everyone was trying to get settled on their very small booth.
"So basically the reason I called you all here is because we need to find our missing animals and persons."
Merry announced.
"Where do we start looking?"
Colfinthel asked.
"I thought you guys would have an idea."
Everyone started shouting at once. Blaming each other for what happened, the small space, pretty much anything they could think of.
"Hey!"
A waitor had walked up to their table.
"Are you guys by any chance looking for a hobbit, two dwarves, a cat, a goat, and a moose?"
"Elk."
Legolas corrected.
"Whatever. Are you?"
"Yes!"
Everyone said at once.
"Well I'll have you know that they happen to be in the back room."
"WHAT?!?!?"
Everyone tried to get out of the booth at once and ended up in a huge pile of hobbits, men, elves, and dwarves.
"Yeah, feel free to head back there."
The waitor walked off leaving everyone else to try and get off the floor.
"I can't breathe!"
Pippin shouted desperately from under the pile.
"Ok! Everyone on top roll off!"
Aragorn shouted.
After that was done they helped the others up, after that the rest could get up on their own.
Pippin didn't move.
"That was the most terrifying thing I have ever experienced in my life."
Merry dragged him to his feet.
"Let's go guys! They're all in the back!"
Frodo led the very large group to the back of the joint.
Their quest was nearly over...

The Superman and Batman joke is not mine.
Well, the joke is. But the idea of it came from HISHE.
Next chapter reveal's what everyone has been up to.
