The old wizard gently drove his horse and wagon down the narrow path of the Shire, softly singing to himself," The Road goes ever on and on,

Down from the door where it began.

Now far ahead the Road has gone,

And I must follow, if I can." He watched as the little Hobbit children cheered at the man with the long grey beard, he smiled at them and with a tip of his hat he rode off, knowing his long journey was coming to an end as he saw the little house on the hill.

"Whoa." His horse halted and gently stamped his hooves while the wizard got off the wagon, his wrinkled face gleamed as he walked up to the small door of the Hobbit hole.

He used his staff to knock on the door, which he was almost instantly welcomed with a familiar voice from inside saying,"I don't want any visitors today! No thank you!" which made the wizard laugh."An old wizard cannot visit his dear friend, Bilbo Baggins?"

Just then a voice shot from within the walls of the small Hobbit hole. "Gandalf!!" The elderly Hobbit ran towards the door as if he was 50 again going on his first adventure with the dwarves.

Wasting no time to open the door and greet his old friend, smiling beneath his wrinkly eyes and sagging cheeks. The old Hobbit laughed as he gleamed. "Come in, come in!"

Gandalf walked inside, ducking slightly to make sure he didn't hit his head on the small door." It's good to see you again." Said the wizard as he hugged the Hobbit with a smile.

"And you as well! You as well Gandalf!" The Hobbit rushed towards the wizard and gave him a hug, chuckling as his long beard tickled the elderly Hobbit. "Ohh hoho What brings you here my dear friend!?"

"Don't you remember? I'm here to take you to visit Rivendell." Gandalf's expression changed to concern as he raised a brow, concealing his worry with a brief smile."No matter. .. have you packed? It is a long journey as you must recall."

Bilbo's expression sank to a worried state "Right, right, yes yes of course! Ha! Silly me, must have slipped my mind" The Hobbit chimed as he darted to his bedroom. "It'll only take me a moment, I don't need much! I'm quite excited to see the mountains again Gandalf!"

"And I'm sure Lord Elrond would be delighted to see you again." The wizard replied with a chuckle as he watched the Hobbit dash to his bedroom to pack.

"Ah the elves! Long have I wanted to visit the Grace and fondness of the elves once more, alas I was getting worried I may not live to see them again" A voice echoed within the small walls of the tiny Hobbit hole from within his bedroom as Bilbo prepared for the journey ahead.
