The Fellowship Of The Yu-Gi-Oh Cast
Thank for the reviews! Here's chapter 10! It's not that long but I'm already working on the next chapter. Enjoy.
Two Psychos On The Loose?
A new day began. Yugi and Yami were climbing over the rocky terrain Emyn Muil and had left the green woods and the lake behind them. The horizon was mutilated with the sight of the Mountain of Fire, their destination.
"Mordor. The most dangerous place in this world and of course we have to go there." Yami mumbled more to himself than to Yugi.
Yugi nodded when suddenly the Eye saw him. Struck by a horrible feeling, Yugi backed away gasping. "Yugi!" Yami yelled catching his hikari. "Is it that eye again?"
"Y-Yes.." Yugi said panting.
"Well I have enough of it!" Yami cried out. "I will face it with… MY MILLENNIUM EYE!" He let go off Yugi, who looked rather puzzled, and climb on a rock. A light started to surround the pharaoh as an eye appeared on his forehead. "Sauron! I challenge you TO A DUEL!"
"O MY GOD NO!" Yugi yelled pulling Yami off the rock he had just climbed on. "Are you crazy! You can't duel an eye! That's just… wrong!"
The duo travelled further, without duelling anymore eyes, and stopped when the sun was replaced by the moon and it was too dark to travel. Yugi and Yami immediately fell asleep, exhausted of walking and climbing the whole day. They were just ten minutes in dreamland when a dark silhouette appeared above at the cliff and started to make it's way down. The creature was talking to himself in a hissing voice.
"The thieves! The thieves! The filthy little thieves! Where is it? Where isss it? They stole it from us. My preciousss." The creature crept closer and closer. "Curse them! We hates them! It's ours, it is... and we wantssss it!"
A fragile arm reached out for Yugi when suddenly both he and Yami jumped up and pulled the creature on the ground. Amidst the struggle the creature was able to wriggle loose. In a quick move he jumped on top of Yugi who fell down because of the sudden weight on his tiny body. The hit on the ground caused the Ring, which Yugi was wearing around his neck with a little chain, to be revealed from under his shirt. The creature's eyes grew to a horrible unnatural size as his fingers tried to grab the item around Yugi's neck. Coming to the rescue Yami pulled him off Yugi who gasped for breath. This time it was Yami who was in a tricky position as the creature had clasped his arms around Yami's neck and his legs around his waist in a death grip.
In a remarkable brave attempt, Yugi pulled out his sword and hold it to the creature's throat who froze in his attempt to struggle Yami. "I recognize you I think! You were that thing in the Mines of Moria!" He started to mumble under his breath. "...Pegasus said you were only a toon… I already thought that couldn't be… it's ridiculous, just how does he… but, but!..." He spoke loud again. "Let go of Yami or I will kill you!"
The creature, Gollum, slowly let go off Yami and to everyone's surprise started to cry. Yugi, the wimp he sometimes is, got pity with him. "Hey don't cry! We won't hurt you!... Uh… do you know the way to Mordor?"
Gollum nodded warily. "Yes…"
"Can you bring us there?" Yugi asked smiling.
Gollum nodded again, this time a crooked smile appearing on his face.

A Group of Uruk-hai marched across the plain, Marik and Bakura were bound to the back of two Uruk-hai.
"Marik…!" Bakura tried to call to the other yami, who was unconscious, a gash marking his right brow. "Marik… fucker!" He waved around with his bounded hands when the group of armoured orcs suddenly stopped.
"What is it? What do you smell?" An orc behind Bakura asked.
Another orc, who was obviously taking the lead, sniffed the air. "Man-flesh… and… something else… it's disgusting!"
Bakura looked over his shoulder. "That would be me, I ate beans the other day, my stomach can't really handle it that well, ya know?" The Uruk-hai who was carrying Bakura shook him around in order to make the yami silent.
"The men have picked up our trail!" The leading Uruk-hai said. "Let's move!"
The Uruk-hai started to run further again. Bakura bounced up and down on the orc's shoulder. Trying not to get attention, he struggled to reach the Elven brooch, which was given to him in Lórien. He ripped it off his cloak with his teeth and spit it out on the ground.
"C'mon schlemiels, find us!"

"They are running like the devil is behind their asses!"
Joey really loved his elf abilities. He sat on the ground, his ears pressed on the ground. Seto could have done it too, but he refused to sit on the ground and push his face in the dirt.
"They must have caught your smell Wheeler." Seto said mockingly. He couldn't believe that, of all people who could have been stuck up with him, it was Joey who was his companion.
Joey ignored Seto's comment and relaxed himself with placing the image of him knocking Seto down with a rock in his head. "C'mon Duke!"
The three chasers ran across rocks and plains, with Seto in the lead.
But then the young CEO stopped in his tracks, looking at the ground. He kneeled down, grabbed something from the ground and opened his hand to see an Elven brooch.
"Those two psychos may yet be alive…" Seto said.
"Less than a day ahead of us. We are gaining in on them!"
They ran at the cliff, gazing at the plains below. Joey however was looking out to the horizon.
"What do you see Joey?" Duke asked.
"Those bastards are going northeast!"
Seto got a map out of his pocket. Although they were doing this quest, they didn't know anything about this world, so he was smart enough to buy one of these in Lórien. "They are taking them to Isengard…"

"We're not going no further till we've rest!"
Evening had passed. The group of Uruk-hai had taken halt next to the borders of a forest. Roughly, obviously not carrying in which state they were in, Bakura and Marik were dropped on the ground while the orcs were taking their rest.
"Get a fire going!"
Bakura crawled over to Marik
"Marik!... Marik!" He tried to pull Marik's eyelids up with his bounded hands. "Marik!"
Marik made a squealing sound and slapped, as good as possible with bounded hands, Bakura's hands away. He opened his eyes without the other yami's help, looked at his bounded hands, at all the orcs around them and then at the also bounded Bakura who lay next to him and was watching him impatiently. After Marik had taken his time to study the situation he looked back at Bakura with the most serious face he could bring up.
"…We're pretty fucked…" Marik finally said
"Gosh… you think?"
A little group of orcs started to chop down the trees nearby for firewood. While they were doing this the sound of low groans and rumbles emerged from the forest.
"What was that?" Marik asked.
"I don't know… but it sounds a lot like the sound that my stomach makes when I'm hungry!"
Their thoughts of what could possibly had made those sounds was disturbed by a big orc who yelled something all over the resting place. "I'm starving. We ain't 'ad nothin' but maggoty bread for three stinkin' days!"
"Yeah. Why can't we have some meat?" Another, more little orc asked. His eyes trailed off to Marik and Bakura. "What about them? They're fresh."
Marik and Bakura looked at each other, both obviously not liking the idea of being eaten, and then looked back at the orc.
"They are not for eating!" The leader orc yelled out.
Another little orc stepped forward. His irises were so light that it looked like he didn't had any irises at all. "What about their legs? They don't need those." Marik raised his legs to his chest as if he would keep them if he did this. "Ooh… They look tasty!"
The leader orc pulled out his weapon and shoved at the two little orcs. "Get back scum!"
The first little orc ignored his leader's order and drew his sword, moving towards the two yamis. "Just a mouth full…"
"I uh… I… I'm afraid I must protest!" Bakura said. "Isn't that right Marik?"
Marik ripped his gaze away from the orc and nodded furiously. "Yes, yes! We must protest! Cause you see, we need them…"
The little orc ignored them and still came closer.
"NO!" The leader orc yelled. He ran towards the orc and cut off his head with a swift move. The head fell at Marik's and Bakura's feet, who looked rather relieved despite the terrible situation they were still in.
"Looks like meat's back on the menu boys!" The leader orc screamed and in an instant every orc cheered and started to tear into the recent dead orc, losing their eyes from the two yamis.
"Bakura…" Marik whispered. "Let's go!"
With their hands still bounded, they tried to crawl away to the borders of the forest. Suddenly Marik gasped when a foot came down on his back, stopping him in his attempt to escape. Bakura was turned onto his back. The second little orc brandished a blade in front of Bakura's face who became very pale and looked at the weapon terrified.
"Go on, call for help." The orc said mockingly. "Squeal! No one is going to save you now…"
After these words a spear pierced trough the orc's back, who screamed and fell down next to Bakura. Riders of Rohan came out from their hiding places and ambushed the orcs, surprised by this sudden attack.
"Bakura!" Marik said, gesturing to make their escape.
Dodging bodies and stomping feet, the yamis crawled further in an attempt to get away from the battlefield. But then for a second time Bakura turned on his back and looked up, this time not to a blade, but to a pair of thrashing hooves bearing down on him.
'SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!"
