What could have happened...

Ok, you know the scene? Moria, running for their lives, the fellowship comes to a broken bridge and Frodo nearly falls into the depths of Moria... This story is about how the history would change if the Ring fell down the chasms of Moria as Frodo trips on the bridge...

Moria

They were running. Running from some kind of monster of fire. He had never been so afraid in his long life. As he looked back on the Ringbearer Frodo, he saw him stumble and started falling off the bridge, but fortunaly Aragorn had quick reflexes and saved him before Frodo started falling down the depths of Moria. But just as the panic turns into relief, he watches as the chain, on which the Ring was, fall instead.

"Eh, Gandalf?" he says.

"Yes Legolas?"

He pointed. "What is exactly down there?"

"An eternal fire that eats stone."

"And what about magical and evil rings?"

"The only magical and evil ring I know of is hanging safely on a chain around Frodo's neck." "Well, it's still on the chain..."

At that Gandalf finally turned around and looked at Legolas. Then he saw Frodo grasping his neck where the chain used to lie.

"Oh dear." Gandalf says. "This was totally unexpected, but I hadn't realized that the fire of Moria could work as well as Mount Doom. Well, I say that when we get out of these mines it's safe for us to return home."

By now they all remembered the monster that was behind them, but he had tripped on the same stone as Frodo, but he didn't have anyone to save him from falling...

Meanwhile in Mordor

(The burning eye's POV)

Mwahahahaha, cough, cough! Ehrm. I can't believe that that stupid wizard hasn't realized that Saruman put a 'looking-spell' on him so that I can see the fellowship wherever they are... Don't even need the spies I've sent out, it's just that they were complaining about not having anything to do! Can you believe that? And the nine 'kings' are the worst! Honestly!! Oh look, they are running from a walking fire! How can they be so stupid to think that Mount Doom is the only place to destroy the Ring. I can think of at least ten more places. And Moria is one of them... Mwahaha... They are actually only bringing it closer to me. Mwahahaha... No! What's happening? Don't tell me!! No! I'm melting! Noooooooo!!!!

The End
