"It's gone...it's done." Frodo said with his last ounce of strength.
"Yes Mr. Frodo. It's over now." Replied Sam. They had just thrown the ring into the fire and were trying to escape Mount Doom. After the Eye of Sauron and the tower collapsed, and Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas had achieved victory over the army at the Black Gate, Gandalf and the eagles went and picked up Frodo and Sam. Back in Rivendell, The Fellowship was back together and over joyed to see Frodo and Sam were alive. Then they returned to Gondor, were Aragorn was being crowned king. It was a very glorious day for the now free people of Middle Earth. Then the Hobbit's returned back to there home, the Shire. When they got there, something unexpected happened. Sam got married and had two kids. But something even more unexpected happened. Frodo, Bilbo, and Gandalf left the Shire for a reason I do not no and therefor cannot say why.
But, there was still another threat. Locked up in his tower, Saruman, Sauron's puppet, whom was spared by Gandalf, had a secret backup army ready to attack Middle Earth and start yet another war. Saruman told his secret army of orcs to ambush the ents guarding the tower entrance. The ents put up a good fight, but they were overwhelmed by the orcs. Alas, Tree Beard fell in battle.
During the ceremony of the new king, Legolas sensed the new evil stirring in Isengard. A worried look went across his face. A worry that there may be another war. Saruman looked around the court yard, at the dead ent's.
"Well done troops. We shall march to Gondor, for they are unaware of us and they are not prepared to fight. To War!!!!!!!!" Shouted Saruman. "We shall avenge lord Sauron, and rule Middle Earth!!!!!"
Legolas went and told Aragorn what he sensed, so Aragorn sent a watch party to the Osgileoth. Saruman's army quickly yet quietly approached Osgileoth. When they set foot in Osgileoth, one of the guards saw them and raised the alarm. The orcs quickly overran the city and executed all the troops.
"We have taken Osgileoth, Lord Saruman. What are your orders?" Asked one of the chief orcs.
"Send forth all legions to Minas Tireth. Kill the king. I will deal with the wizard." Saruman replied.
"March!!" Commanded the chief orc.
Saruman's huge army approached the white city and attacked it viciously.
"We're under attack, Aragorn!!!" Yelled Gimli.
"Prepare for battle!!" Faramir ordered.
"Volley!" Commanded Legolas. A storm of arrows erupted from the wall.
"Return fire!!" Shouted Saruman. The orcs fired there arrows.
Two of them hit Legolas in the chest.
