by superman42

This is my first crossover with The Third age for Xbox and PS2. Gandalf survives Moria and meets the Party from the games. this is extremely non canon but manages to tell a what if story about what could've happened if the games were canon and gandalf hadn't died. Chapter 2 is up and someone will die. most of the dialogue is in Sindarin, so brush up

1. Chapter 1

Lord of the rings: Sauron's Wake

Third Age crossover

Chapter 1

Gandalf urged the fellowship to cross the bridge as he slowed down the balrog. "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" he yelled and broke the bridge. As he looked over the edge, he realized the whip was coming, managed to dodge and fired a freezing spell at the balrog. then he managed to levitate tha Balrog out of the chasm, smashed it into the ground and proceeded to curse it nonstop. the Balrog pleaded for mercy in it's own tongue

"Gandalf, how did you manage that" asked aragorn. Gandalf ignored him and continued his magical onslaught. the Balrog grew weak and it's flames began to flicker out.

Gandalf turned to the Balrog and spoke. "Look at me", the Balrog turned its head. "Never again shall you walk or spew flame. i excorcise you from Moria" with that, the Balrog screamed and exploded.

Frodo had seen the entire thing and was understandably freaked out. "Get away from me Gandalf, wha- What are you?"

Gandalf let out a sigh of exhaustion and told Frodo everything:

"I am a Maiar, A Physical spirit as it were. Sauron is one as well. a Corrupted spawn of Melkor, trapped deep beneath the pits of Moria, past the dwelling of the dead, into places where even Eru will not travel. Saruman was our leader but he tried to have me killed, as i told you in Rivendell. The Balrog of Moria, Durin's Bane, is not the only one here, we must move on and quickly, i can hear something in the walls" said Gandalf, as something could be heard chittering and scratching at the walls to the west. A pair of two lidless flaming eyes could be seen through a hole in a nearby crevice. "Great, Wargs...run" said gandalf with all urgency.

The diseased, bleeding warg broke through the wall and ate Frodo's ring. it immediately turned invisible. "Where is it?" whispered frodo, scared shitless. "be silent!" ordered gandalf as he cast a spell. the slight image of wavering lines could be seen and Legolas fired 3 arrows into the Warg's body. It's stomache fell open and its guts poured out immediately upon death.

"Stinking Creature, i warned you Berethor, there are worse things than trolls here" came the voices of an unfamiliar group. Legolas drew his bow. "State your business and be swift" cried Legolas, arrow at the ready.

"My name is Berethor, captain of Gondor, i am seeking...Boromir?" he said as he noticed Boromir in the group. "I've been looking for you. where is the ring?"

Boromir drew his sword and Elegost immediately fired an arrow , knocking Boromir's sword away. "Enough of this, we would speak to Boromir...alone" Boromir consulted with the group and they sent Legolas as a guard.

Berethor talked at length about his brainwashing by Saruman. "A morgul blade?" exclaimed Boromir as Berethor showed him the blade piece. "Frodo was telling the truth" Boromir realized. The discussion went on for hours as Boromir and Berethor discussed problems in Gondor. "There are rumors of a massive assault from Mordor and Rhun. Osgiliath is also unprotected" said Berethor.

Boromir informed the company, who took a detour and headed for Gondor.
