The day after the epic Fellowship of the Ring movie night, all of the Avengers, and most recently Loki, who had been forgiven for the Slenderman incident (A/N: Loki is now in this fic, as he is in Real Life Videogames and Avengers and Pranks. I shall be drafting him into the others now!) , had re-assembled to watch Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Clint was still in his Legolas costume. Loki was Aragorn. Bruce was Frodo again. Pepper and Jane were Galadriel and Arwen. Thor was Boromir. Natasha was Pippin. Tony was Gandalf. Everyone matched the characters they were dressed as. Tony slotted the blu-ray DVD in, and everyone sat back to enjoy the film.
"OH MY GOD!" Clint, Tony, and Bruce fanboyed in unison.
"You HAVE seen Fellowship of the Ring?" Jane asked Loki.
"Indeed." Loki nodded.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP! IT'S STARTING!" Tony hushed them all, earning dirty looks from them all.
HIGH WIDE AERIAL ON: CAMERA flies over the snow-covered peaks of the Misty Mountains. As the tranquillity of the scene sinks in, voices disrupt the peacefulness.
"You cannot pass!" Gandalf bellowed.
"Gandalf!" Bruce cried at the same time as Frodo on-screen.
ON THE SOUNDTRACK: A faint crash sounds over the landscape.
"I am the servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor!" Gandalf stood tall, facing the Balrog.
"I DO NOT WANT TO RE-LIVE THIS TRAGEDY!" Loki cried.
"ME NEITHER, BROTHER!" Thor dabbed at his eyes with a tissue.
PAN CLOSER TO THE SIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS.
"Go back to the Shadow. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udûn!" Gandalf held up his staff.
TRACK THROUGH THE SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN TO: INT. BRIDGE OF KHAZAD-DÛM, MORIA – DAY. WIDE ON: The BALROG slashes at GANDALF with its SWORD OF FLAME ...GANDALF blocks with GLAMDRING ... a ringing clash and the BALROG'S SWORD SHATTERS into MOLTEN FRAGMENTS!
"FUCK YES!" Loki cheered.
Everyone laughed at his reaction, Thor startled at Loki's use of Midgardian swears. Tony shushed them all loudly.
"You shall not pass!" Gandalf booms.
The BALROG places one foot onto the bridge.
GANDALF CRIES ALOUD as he summons his LAST RESERVES OF STRENGTH!
He thumps the bridge with his staff...a blinding sheet of white flame springs up...the staff shatters...the bridge breaks...right at the BALROG'S feet.
The stone bridge drops away into the GULF...from under the BALROG. For a moment, the great BEAST remains poised in the air...then it plunges down:
SLOW MOTION: RELIEF floods FRODO'S face...GANDALF remains trembling on the lip of the broken bridge.
SLOW MOTION: As the BALROG falls, he lashes out with his whip of fire...
SLOW MOTION: The thongs of the whip lash and curl around GANDALF'S knees, dragging him over the brink! GANDALF just manages to hang on by his fingertips.
"Gandalf!" Frodo cries.
"Fly, you fools!" Gandalf urges.
"No!" Frodo screams.
CLOSE ON: GANDALF lets go his grip and falls away...following the BALROG into the BOTTOMLESS ABYSS!
"Gandalf!" Frodo shouts in anguish.
Tears streamed down Loki and Steve's faces. The two cried what they dubbed 'manly tears'.
"Why the fuck did Gandalf have to die?!" Loki grabbed a nearby cushion and buried his head in it, much to the amusement of the other Avengers.
TRACK AT HIGH SPEED WITH GANDALF AS HE PLUMMETS...THE BALROG SMOKES FROM BELOW...
ANGLE ON: GANDALF snatches GLAMDRING as he plummets head-first behind the BALROG. GANDALF alights on the BALROG'S NECK and stabs GLAMDRING deep into it...the BALROG swipes at GANDALF loosening GANDALF'S grip.
The BALROG swings at GANDALF several times before snatching GANDALF in his GRASP...another bounce off the close walls and GANDALF falls freely again GANDALF grabs hold of the demon's horns as they continue their never-ending plunge...The BALROG bounces off the walls as GANDALF prepares to drive GLAMDRING into its head.
"BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THAT BALROG, MORTAL WIZARD!" Loki cried.
Thor promptly choked on his drink.
INT. UNDERGROUND CAVERN - DAY
WIDE ON: AT THE UTTERMOST FOUNDATIONS BENEATH THE DEEPEST DELVINGS OF THE DWARVES, GANDALF and the BALROG emerge like a small ball of fire high above an enormous body of water in a cavern without measure. CLOSE ON: GANDALF'S EYES WIDEN as they crash into the water below.
"SOOO EPIC!" Clint and Loki cheered in unison before high-fiving. Loki's face was tear-stained, but Clint didn't dare to tease the god.
"Shut up!" Natasha shrieked.
"Ooooohhh, touchy touchy." Tony snickered childishly.
FRODO walks over to join SAM at the overlook.
CLOSE ON: FRODO looks to SAM ominously.
"We're not alone." Frodo whispers.
EXT. EMYN MUIL - NIGHT
ANGLE ON: FRODO and SAM sleep.
HIGH WIDE: A dark, spidery shape appears on top of the cliff and makes its way down to the slumbering HOBBITS. ANGLE ON: The emaciated creature is dressed only in a tattered loincloth, and appears mostly human in appearance. Its frame is quite thin, but its hands, feet, and eyes are oversized. What hair remains is thin and falls where it may about its shoulders. It descends the rock face upside down like an insect. This is GOLLUM. He speaks in an ancient, gravely voice.
"The thieves. The thieves. The filthy little thieves. Where is it?" Gollum rasps.
"WHAT IN ODIN'S NAME IS THAT?!" Loki shrieked and dived behind the sofa.
"BY VOLSTAGG'S BEARD, WHAT MONSTROSITY IS THIS?!" Thor brandished his hammer.
"We only saw a bit of him in the previous movie, and he still makes me shudder now." Loki shivered before climbing back onto the sofa as Natasha and Tony glared at him.
CRANE BEHIND GOLLUM as he climbs down.
"Where is it? They stole it from us. My precious. Curse them, we hates them! It's ours, it is, and we wants it! Gollum glares at the hobbits.
"FUCK!" Loki dived behind the sofa once more, leaving everyone except Thor in stitches from extreme laughter.
GOLLUM reaches his hand out to snatch his prize.
SUDDENLY, the HOBBITS spring and snatch GOLLUM off the side of the rock. Amidst the struggle, GOLLUM wriggles loose and throws them both away from him.
As FRODO falls back, the RING comes out of his shirt.
GOLLUM recovers and sees the RING. He leaps straight for it.
GOLLUM desperately tries to get his hands on his precious while FRODO struggles to prevent this. SAM recovers and grabs GOLLUM by the ankle, dragging him away from FRODO...GOLLUM reels back and hits SAM in the face, knocking him away. He pounces back on FRODO and reaches for the RING...FRODO grabs Gollum's hand, and struggles against his considerable strength.
CLOSE ON: GOLLUM'S cheeks puff with exertion as he struggles with FRODO, his enormous eyes fixed on the RING.
ANGLE ON: SAM comes up from behind GOLLUM again, and lifts him off of FRODO...GOLLUM grasps FRODO, throwing him off to one side as SAM swings GOLLUM around. GOLLUM leaps from Sam's grasp onto the rock wall beside them, and then back on top of FRODO. SAM pulls GOLLUM off again, and GOLLUM turns on him...he fiercely bites SAM on the neck. SAM struggles against him, but GOLLUM reels around, wraps his legs around SAM and tries to choke him! SAM falls to the ground atop GOLLUM, but GOLLUM continues to have the upper hand. SUDDENLY, FRODO grabs GOLLUM by the hair, and holds STING to his neck.
CLOSE ON: GOLLUM'S eyes go wide, and he freezes. He maintains a hold on SAM.
"GO ONWARD FRODO! BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF HIM!" Clint and Loki cheered in unison.
"This is Sting. You've seen it before, haven't you ... Gollum?" Frodo sounds uncharacteristically threatening.
ANGLE ON: SAM tries to break GOLLUM'S grip, unsuccessfully.
"Release him or I'll cut your throat!" Frodo glares at the pale Gollum.
"Well…" Tony started. "That escalated quickly."
Loki splurted his drink everywhere in a fit of laughter.
ANGLE ON: Slowly, GOLLUM loosens his grip on SAM...and then WAILS.
CUT TO:
EXT. EMYN MUIL - DAY
WIDE ON: Gollum's wail ECHOES across the vast, rocky landscape of EMYN MUIL. EXT. EMYN MUIL - DAY
ANGLE ON: FRODO and SAM walks through EMYN MUIL...SAM tugs on the rope and GOLLUM stumbles behind them. GOLLUM continues to SCREAM and WAIL.
"It burns! It burns us! It freezes! Nasty Elves twisted it. Take it off us!" Gollum protests.
"It is no less than you deserve, Gollum." Loki muttered darkly.
Clint shifted away from him.
SAM continues dragging GOLLUM, willing or not, across the rocks.
"Quiet, you!" Sam seems agitated still.
GOLLUM stops again.
SAM tugs fiercely at the rope to try and get him to come along, but GOLLUM wails again, unmoving. SAM turns to FRODO in dismay.
"It's hopeless. Every Orc in Mordor's going to hear this racket. Let's just tie him up and leave him." Sam suggests.
ANGLE ON: GOLLUM stops crying at once and turns to the HOBBITS wide-eyed and pleading.
"No! That would kill us! Kill us!" Gollum pleads.
"It's no more than you deserve!" Loki gaped at Sam's words, so similar to his own. Everyone else laughed at his expression, and handed round drinks. Steve too, seemed amused by everyone's reactions to the film, dressed as Faramir.
GOLLUM wails again and COLLAPSES onto the ground, writhing.
ANGLE ON: FRODO looks down to GOLLUM.
"Maybe he does deserve to die. But now that I see him, I do pity him." Frodo sounds thoughtful.
ANGLE ON: GOLLUM suddenly stops and turns to FRODO, smiling.
"Creepy little bastard." Tony and Loki spoke at the same time.
This caused more drinks to be choked upon.
"Brother, your language is inappropriate." Thor frowned at his brother's behaviour.
"Alright." Loki turned to Thor. "In that case…" the trickster took a deep breath. "Kindly fuck off, brother."
As Loki turned to the screen, Clint rolled off the sofa, giggling away.
"We be nice to them if they be nice to us. Take it off us." Gollum continues.
ANGLE ON: FRODO and SAM look at GOLLUM warily.
"We swears to do what you wants. We swears." Gollum is almost begging.
"There's no promise you can make that I can trust." Frodo speaks.
Pepper and Jane nodded approvingly with Bruce and Natasha. Loki poked his tongue out at Thor, who was glaring at him.
ANGLE ON: GOLLUM scrambles up and bows to FRODO desperately.
"We swears to serve the master of the precious. We will swear on the...on the precious." Gollum grins, several teeth missing. He then coughs. "Gollum. Gollum."
"The Ring is treacherous. It will hold you to your word." Frodo reminds Gollum.
"That is true." Bruce nodded in approval.
ANGLE ON: GOLLUM crawls over to FRODO.
"Yes...on the precious. On the precious." Gollum mutters.
INT. ROHAN VILLAGE - DAY
The VILLAGERS quickly gather their things.
SARUMAN (V.O.) (CONT'D)
"Too long have these peasants stood against you. But no more." Saruman speaks with authority.
ANGLE ON: MORWEN packs necessities on her horse. She calls out to her CHILDREN.
"Éothain! Éothain!" She cries.
ANGLE ON: A young boy and girl, ÉOTHAIN and FREDA, run to their mother with their bags. MORWEN helps him on the horse.
"You'll take your sister. You'll go faster with just two." Morwen gives a wavering smile.
Loki sniffed sorrowfully. Natasha handed him a tissue. It surprised them all that the emerald-eyed trickster could get so emotional.
"Papa says Éothain must not ride Garulf." Freda speaks. "He is too big for him!"
MORWEN lifts FREDA onto the horse in front of her brother.
"Listen to me. You must ride to Edoras and raise the alarm. Do you understand me?" she stares at her children.
"Yes, Mama!" Éothain nods briskly.
"Norns, noooo!" Loki cried mournfully. Thor wrapped an arm round him. The trickster didn't protest.
"God, you're more emotional than Pepper on her period." Tony sighed, exasperated. Pepper slapped him for being mean- she too was crying.
FREDA starts to cry, and reaches for her mother.
"I don't want to leave. I don't want to go, Mama." Freda sobs.
"Freda, I will find you there." Morwen nods.
A SCREAM BREAKS THE MOMENT.
CLOSE ON: MORWEN runs to look.
POV: The far side of the village is under siege. VILLAGERS are running towards MORWEN.
"Quickly!" Morwen cries.
ANGLE ON: MORWEN slaps the horse and it rides off with the children...FREDA continues crying and reaching for her mother...MORWEN looks after them, sorrowfully.
"Go, child." She whispers.
SERIES OF CUTS: WILD MEN and URUK-HAI overrun the village... the
VILLAGERS try in vain to escape...they are cut down...the village burns in their wake...
Loki was near hysterics by this point, as were Pepper and Jane. Even Natasha had a tear in her eye. They all huddled together in one big group, glaring at the others when they laughed.
ANGLE ON: LEGOLAS looks about the forest, as if feeling it.
"This forest is old. Very old. Full of memory...and anger." Legolas looks worried.
ON THE SOUNDTRACK: Low groans reverberate throughout the forest.
ANGLE ON: GIMLI gasps and raises his axe.
"The trees are speaking to each other." Legolas continues.
Clint cheered now that his character was on screen.
"Trees speak?!" Thor looked perplexed.
"TREE-SHAGGER!" Tony snickered.
Clint threw a cushion at the billionaire, who deflected it, before the two fell about with laughter.
ANGLE ON: ARAGORN turns to GIMLI, who is fearfully waving his axe about, looking for foes.
"Gimli!" Aragorn whispers.
ANGLE ON: GIMLI starts at the sound of his name.
"Lower your axe." Aragorn speaks in a hushed voice.
GIMLI recollects himself and lowers his axe, as if surrendering.
"They have feelings, my friend. The Elves began it. Waking up the trees, teaching them to speak." Legolas continues.
"Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about? Except the consistency of squirrel droppings. They continue walking through the forest." Gimli chuckled nervously at his own joke.
ANGLE ON: SUDDENLY, LEGOLAS senses something and runs off for a better look.
"Aragorn, nad nâ ennas!" Legolas protests. "Something is out there."
CLOSE ON: LEGOLAS intently searches the FOREST. ARAGORN comes up behind him.
"Man cenich?" Aragorn asks. "What do you see?"
"The White Wizard approaches." Legolas speaks in an awed, hushed voice.
"Saruman?!" Loki cursed.
"Ehehehehehehe." Clint cackled, greatly anticipating Loki's reaction to the next scene.
CLOSE ON: The THREE HUNTERS weigh the gravity of this pronouncement.
"Do not let him speak. He will put a spell on us." Aragorn tells his companions.
CLOSE ON: ARAGORN readies his sword...GIMLI grips his axes...
LEGOLAS nocks an arrow.
"We must be quick." Aragorn whispers on-screen.
QUICK SERIES OF CUTS: WITH A YELL, the three swing round to attack...a bright light envelops them from the WIZARD...GIMLI throws his axe...it is shattered...LEGOLAS launches an arrow... it is deflected...ARAGORN'S sword becomes red hot in his grasp ...it clatters to the forest floor.
ANGLE ON: The THREE HUNTERS shield their eyes from the blinding light emanating from the WHITE WIZARD.
"COULD IT BE?!" Loki gasped.
"IS THIS FEASIBLE?!" Thor gaped.
Everyone chuckled at the gods.
"You are tracking the footsteps of two young Hobbits." The white wizard speaks.
"Where are they?" Aragorn asks with a sense of urgency about him.
"They passed this way the day before yesterday. They met someone they did not expect. Does that comfort you?" The white wizard continues.
"Who are you? Show yourself!" Aragorn demands.
ANGLE ON: The WHITE WIZARD recalls his light...slowly, his face is revealed...standing before them, DRESSED ALL IN WHITE, is GANDALF!
ANGLE ON: ARAGORN looks upon him, astounded.
"PRAISE THE NORNS! WIZARD GANDALF RETURNS!" Thor cried in happiness.
Loki actually cried.
"He is a fellow wizard!" Loki glared at everyone who laughed at his tears, even Pepper and Jane. Steve rolled his eyes.
"It cannot be." Aragorn is stunned.
"Forgive me. I mistook you for Saruman." Legolas kneels.
"Apparently, elven tree-shaggers bow before elderly wizards." Tony chuckled.
Pepper slapped him whilst Steve and Bruce kicked him for spoiling the moment.
GIMLI joins LEGOLAS in bowing before the light of GANDALF.
"I am Saruman. Or rather, Saruman as he should have been." Gandalf speaks with fondness for his companions.
"I am most pleased that wizard Gandalf has returned." Loki grinned.
"Me too, brother." Thor agreed.
"I am actually enjoying this film." Steve commented.
"PRAISE THE LORD!" Tony cried and raised his arms in the air dramatically.
"Shhhh, movie!" Natasha brandished her knives once more.
Everyone else gulped and went back to the epic movie of pure epicness.
WIDE ON: The MEN and ELVES stand ready and watchful on the BATTLEMENTS of HELM'S DEEP. Every inch of space overlooking the sides of the wall is covered.
WIDE ON: ACROSS THE PLAINS BEFORE HELM'S DEEP, AN ENORMOUS ARMY,
LIT BY TORCHES, APPROACHES THE HEAVILY MANNED BATTLEMENTS.
ANGLE ON: LEGOLAS watches before a COMPLEMENT of ARCHERS. The top of a HELMET is just visible over the edge of the wall.
"You could have picked a better spot." Gimli huffed indignantly.
All the Avengers, Loki included, laughed heartily.
LEGOLAS smirks. ARAGORN approaches and stands beside them.
ANGLE ON: HALDIR gives orders to his retreating detachment.
"Na barad!" he speaks with authority.
He turns and starts to retreat, but he is stopped by an URUK-HAI who leaps in front of him. He makes short work of this one, but another comes from behind him and stabs him in the arm.
SLOW MOTION: HALDIR staggers...he kills the offending URUK...he looks down to his arm in total disbelief...he whirls around, lost to his purpose...
BEHIND HIM, AN URUK EMERGES AND BRINGS HIS SWORD DOWN ON
HALDIR'S HEAD...HALDIR freezes with a shocked look on his face...
SLOW MOTION ANGLE ON: ARAGORN, on the ground, sees HALDIR
FALLING...HALDIR falls to his knees, his world spinning around him...ARAGORN fights his way up the steps...HALDIR looks about him...the dead bodies of his kinsmen lie all around him...he falls to the ground just as ARAGORN catches him...his head falls into ARAGORN'S arm...eyes lifeless and unseeing...
ANGLE ON: ARAGORN gives HALDIR a silent farewell...seeing a group of approaching URUK-HAI, like a madman, ARAGORN leaps aboard the nearest ladder and rides it into the sea of URUK-HAI below.
"HALDIRRRRR! NOOOOO!" Loki bellowed.
"WHY DID HE HAVE TO DIE!?" Thor cried mournfully.
"There is always casualties in war." Natasha cried softly. Even Clint was crying.
"THEY BETTER AVENGE HIM WELL!" Loki let loose a stream of curses.
