All games and fun stopped soon though, Gandalf had opened the door. Slowly they all piled in. Aragorn pulled Rachel back with him, "Stay close to me."

All Rachel could manage was a 'Yes sir.' Aragorn smiled slightly at her nervousness. She shuddered as darkness enclosed around them. It was a little too silent for her. "I got you." Aragorn whispered to her placing a hand on her shoulder as they walked.

"It's too silent for me." She whispered back to him, "I'm used to loud obnoxious idiots running around me."

"Shut up Woman!" Tina yelled.

Aragorn smiled, "Is that better?"

"Yes, yes it is."

Gandalf lit up his staff bringing a bright light to everything. Rachel relaxed slightly; Aragorn's hand remained on her shoulder though. Legolas smirked; it seemed to him that Aragorn had his hand on her for his own personal means of reassurance. "Holy Shit! It's a skeleton!" Tina cried, only Grace and Rachel caught her happy tone.

Legolas pulled out an arrow, "Orcs!"

Aragorn pulled out his sword and pushed Rachel behind him along with Frodo. "We make for the gape of Rohan!" Rachel barely heard Boromir say over Gimili's cries.

Suddenly Frodo was grabbed by the giant Octopus; Rachel screamed rushing after him with the hobbits (including Tina) and Grace. They tried to cut Frodo free but to no avail. "What should we do?" Sam asked.

"Sam get Aragorn!" Rachel yelled running to the tentacle. She muttered the words 'this is going to taste nasty' before biting into it hard. It dropped Frodo. The girls calmed a bit seeing how Frodo was alright. But that change when both Frodo and Rachel got pulled back the octopus.

"Rachel, this is not the time to be horsing around!" Tina yelled.

"I don't think she's horsing around Tina." Grace whispered as everyone ran out to help them.

"This didn't happen in the book." Tina replied picking up a pebble and throwing it at the octopus.

"Tina, WE aren't in the book."

Tina blinked, "And your point is?"

"Ugh just forget it!" Grace cried hitting her head.

Tina looked back at the others, "That looks like fun I'm going to go join them."

Grace grabbed her quickly, "You can't go join them you'll be eaten!"

"But Rachel is ." Tina replied.

Grace sucked in her cheeks and pointed at Rachel who just dangling there, "She's unconscious Tina, in mortal danger."

Tina blinked, "So?"

Within seconds the fellowship got Frodo and Rachel free. Boromir caught Frodo like in the book and Aragorn caught Rachel. "Get into the mines!" Aragorn yelled as he carried Rachel.

Grace grabbed Tina's arm and ran. They made it in safely with the rest of them. Together they all watched the cave collapse on Mr. Octopus. Gandalf mumbled something about there being no other choice but to go through Moria. He lit up his staff once more bringing light to everything. Frodo wheezed heavily looking around to see if Rachel was alright. He spotted her still unconscious in Aragorn's arms. Aragorn had a tight protective grip on her and look to match it. Frodo had a feeling that if orcs were to come at this time, Aragorn would slice them in two, without even drawing a breath. "Wake up idiot!" Tina cried flicking Rachel on the cheek.

"Tina, leave her alone." Grace ordered.

Aragorn sighed standing up, "Legolas help me get her on my back."

Legolas strode over to them. Aragorn gently placed Rachel on the ground. He gave Tina a look, "Don't even think about kicking her."

Tina glared, "Nnnn."

Grace hit her head once again, "Okay crazy lady let's let them be."

She pulled Tina away from them and towards Merry who would be more than glad to distract Tina. Carefully Legolas scooped Rachel up and placed her on Aragorn's back. Aragorn shifted slightly uncomfortable with having her so close. Legolas smirked, "Are you sure you're not attracted to her, my friend?"

Aragorn glared, "I am positive."

Legolas sighed, "Then why did look like you were about to kill anything that moved, a few seconds ago?"

Aragorn gave him questioning look. "Aragorn, we've been friend for a long time now. We have fought battles together and I have never seen you look so-angry and violent like….I don't want to say this lightly but you looked like an orc."

"An orc?" Aragorn asked raising an eyebrow.

"That's not nice Legolas, just because Aragorn isn't a stuck up bitchy elf like you doesn't mean you can call him ugly." Tina piped in.

"Shut up Tina!" Grace snapped.

Legolas sighed and looked at his friend, "you looked as if you were about to kill anything no matter who or what it was. As long as it got near her, you would slay it…just like an orc."

"Adrenaline." Aragorn replied.

"Denial!" Tina sang.

Aragorn glared at her, but returned to his conversation with Legolas, "Do not worry about my love life my friend. Worry about your own."

Legolas smiled, "I do, but unlike you I admit my feelings to at least myself."
