Loki paced back and forth he waited for results as he watched through the Magic Globe that was sitting on the tabel. He saw Smeagol leading Anna and Frodo to the Dead Marshes. Loki did a snickered laugh."Yes as soon as they cross Mordor they will be lost..."

Anna,Frodo,and Sam continue to follow Smeagol. Anna asked "Where are we?"

Smeagol looked over his shoulder and said "The Dead Marshes..."

Anna walked between Frodo and Sam. She looked at the pond that was near. She saw fog across the water.

Sam blurted out "He has led us to a swamp!"

"Why are you so concerned Sam?" asked Anna

"I'm not...what makes you think that?" he replied

"Just wondering..." answered Anna

"Come Master we will take you to safe paths through the mist...come hobbits and Princess Anna. We go quickly." said Smeagol

Anna and Sam looked at each-other and shrugged their shoulders. Anna gasped she whispered "Fr..Frodo what is that?"

"What's what?" he asked

"Th...that!"

Sam's foot slips through the muck that was in the water. "Eww!" he said

Anna gulped she grabbed Frodo's arm. "Protect me..." she said in a frightened voice

Frodo rolled his eyes "Anna nothing bad is going to happen..."

"You don't know they're dead bodies in the water...Can we go some where else?"

"No we are going to follow Smeagol!"

Anna scoffed "But...I don't think it's safe."

"ANNA FOR THE LAST TIME NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN!"

Sam gasped , Anna looked at Frodo and cried out "Why do we have to trust this...this GOLLUM HE IS A MONSTER A VILLAIN!"

Smeagol growled out "What did you just call me?"

"You heard me! Frodo I think we should just go on this journey alone!" shouted Anna

Frodo walked towards Anna and yelled out "NO! SMEAGOL IS OUR GUIDE WE NEED HIM! WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!"

"Mister Frodo!" called out Sam in a hurry

"Not now Sam!"

Anna shouted out "What did I ever do to you?"

"ENOUGH ANNA!" Frodo covered his face with his hands His anger grew.

"No why ? why do you trust him ! WHAT DO YOU SEE IN HIM?"

"I SAID ENOUGH!" Suddenly Frodo ran over to Anna and pounced on her. He took his sword.

Sam watched as his friend lost his temper. "Frodo..." Anna's heart started to pound.

"What's happened to you? you're not the lover I remember..." Anna stared at Frodo while he was holding his sword to her neck.

"Frodo it's Anna...don't you know your Anna?"

Frodo gasped he realized what he did was wrong. He dropped his sword and sat on the ground."I'm sorry..." he wept

Anna got back up and crawled towards him. She said "Frodo ..." she put her hands around his cheek to sooth him.

"It's ok..." she wrapped her arms around Frodo and nuzzled in to his chest. "I love you" she whispered

"I love you too..."

"There dead things! dead faces in the water!" called out Sam

Anna and Frodo got back and continued to walk. "All dead. Elves and Men and Orceses. A great battle long ago." said Smeagol as he truned around to face the hobbits.

"What battle?" asked Anna

"It's a long story...The Dead Marshes. Yes, yes that is their name. This way. Don't follow the lights!" said Smeagol

As Frodo , Sam , and Anna walk through the lake. Sam slips his foot in to the water once again.

"OH!" he called out

Anna walks in mud and glares at Smeagol. "Careful now or hobbits go down to join the dead ones and light little candles of their own." says Smeagol as he walks.

Anna notices Frodo walking to towards the lake. She gasped and called out "Frodo what are you doing?"

"Frodo!" yelled Sam

Frodo is drawn to one of the faces in Elven armor. He stares at it intently, until suddenly it's eyes open and Frodo falls face-down in to the water.

"Master!" shouted Smeagol

Anna and Sam rushed towards Frodo quickly. "Hurry Sam!" said Anna

Frodo is in the water and sees man faces of the dead, no longer alive but, still but screaming and grasping, their rotten robes of hair flowing about their gruesome faces. Their hands are reaching for him. Frodo is grabbed from behind. Anna and Sam both pulled him back up. Frodo sputters and grasps for air.

"Are you alright?" asked Anna while looking at him

"I'm...I'm fine..." said Frodo while coughing.

Smeagol walks towards Frodo and says "Don't follow the lights." He started to crawl away.
