Interlude
.
.
.
Middle-Earth always has its places of wonder and danger, like the land of Mordor, and just recently, the smoking valley of Isengard, where Saruman, the head of the wizard's order, has turned to the darkside. Everywhere in the lands of Middle-Earth, beauty reigned, even in the lands of the Misty Mountains.
.
On some days, the mountains were beautiful and peaceful, and on some nights… who knows? Maybe dark and dangerous events occur. The lands of the Misty Mountains were probably more dangerous inside of the mountains rather than the outside. Like when the creature Gollum took the One Ring of power into the mountains' tunnels and kept it there for 500 years.
.
The Misty Mountains, even now were full of danger, which is made clear by the echoing screams of people, throughout the mountain range…
.
You cannot pass…!
.
Tommy…!
.
The echoing continued…
.
I am the servant of the secret fire, wielder of the flame of Arnor…
.
.
Argh…!
.
.
Go back to the shadow…
.
.
The dark fire will not avail you, FLAME OF UDUN!
.
The echoing screams came from inside the mountains, into the mines of Moria. A man, with a staff and sword, was standing on a bridge, facing a fiery creature called a Balrog. A company of Eight, watched the fight. Four of them were Hobbits. One was an Elf, one was a Dwarf, and the two were men. The Balrog cracked its whip at the old man, proceeding forward.
"YOU…" shouted the old man, raising his staff, "…SHALL NOT… PASS!"
The man quickly slammed the staff on the bridge, illuminating a white light that drove the Balrog back a bit. The man held his own when the Balrog proceeded again only… the bridge started to collapse under it, taking the Balrog with it as it fell down a chasm.
Exhausted, the man turned around to leave with his companions but…
.
.
The flaming whip lashed up from the abyss, from which the Balrog fell into and grabbed the old man's ankle, pulling him to the edge. The man clings onto the bridge, but is straining to keep his grip. One of the Hobbits started to run to the old man, but one of the men held him back.
"No!" said the man.
"Tommy!" yelled the Hobbit to the old man on the bridge.
The man, Tommy, continued to struggle to keep his grip and then, unexpectedly, he looks to his companions and the scared Hobbit, one last time…
"…Fly you fools," said Tommy.
"NOOOOOOO!" yelled the Hobbit.
.
Tommy then loosened his grip, directly falling with the Balrog into the abyss…
.
.
The abyss in which they fell into was very vast and very deep. Tommy then was able to spot… and grab hold of his sword, Glamdring. Tommy proceeded directly towards the fiery Balrog… and started to hack away at it with the sword with each hit he made…
.
.
SLICE!
.
.
The battling pair fought in the bloodiest fashion. And at that moment… Tommy plunged his sword into the creature, emitting sparks of fire from it. But…
.
.
.
The Balrog knocked away Tommy like a pest. However, the wizard continued to fall alongside the Balrog in the enclosed cavern…
The battle became fiercer each time as they plunged at even greater speeds…
.
.
The demon tried to knock Tommy away again, but the wizard would not give up as he struggled to regain his hold on the demon. But unfortunately, the Balrog grabbed him first, so he wouldn't be able to strike. Tommy continued his struggle, as he did…
.
.
The demon crashed into the walls, releasing Tommy. Tommy was able to grab one of the horns, enabling him to jump onto the creature's back… and plunged his sword into the Balrog's neck.
In the heat of this moment…
.
.
.
The battling pair started to fall into a giant cavern with cold, frozen glacial water at the bottom of it. The fiery flames of the Balrog lit the cavern as it and Tommy slowly… but surely… fell into the water. Just then…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"…Tommy!" Ethan cries out as he awakes from his sleep.
He was taking a nap, along with Conner, When Ethan woke up crying out Tommy's name, Conner woke up, worrying about Ethan.
"What is it, Ethan?" asked Conner.
Ethan answered, solemnly, "…nothing… "
Ethan lays down again.
"…Just a dream," he added.

SECTION 2: THE TWO TOWERS
.
.
.
.
.
.
Once a Fellowship of nine…
.
Now has been cut down to seven with the loss of Tommy and the recent loss of Shane. And recently…
The Fellowship was now scattered when Ethan chose to go on his own. However, Conner went along with the ring-bearing Hobbit. Also, Hunter and Blake were captured by the Uruk-Hai and were now being pursued by Trent, Max, and Dustin
But unfortunately…
.
.
The news of Shane's loss has not yet reached the two travelers as they continued to trek their way through the razor sharp hills of Emyn Muil, as they have been for several days hence. As they reached the top of a certain hill, they oversaw an ominous, dark, and fiery light from a great distance. It was their destination, the mountain of fire in Mordor.
.
"Mordor," stated Conner, "the one place in Middle-Earth we don't want to see any closer. And it's the one place we're trying to get to. It's just where we can't get."
Conner then turned to face Ethan and added, "let's face it, Ethan, we're lost."
"Well," said Conner, "…I don't think Tommy meant for us to come this way.
"…He didn't mean for a lot of things to happen Conner," interjected Ethan, "…but they did."
But out of nowhere…
.
.
Ethan looked toward the mountain of fire suddenly… and immediately felt and saw the Eye, zooming in on him, in a flash!
.
AAACKKK!
.
.
Ethan gasped and backed away, panting. Conner gasped at Ethan's dilemma
Ethan sat down and fumbled for his bottle of water to take a sip.
.
"…Okay," said Ethan as he turned to Conner, "…what food have we got left, Conner?"
Conner took off his backpack and set it down to look inside of it. "Well let me see," he said as he went through his bag and took out a package.
"Oh yes, lovely… Lembas bread." Conner then went into his bag again, "and look… "
He showed another package to them.
"…More Lembas bread," Conner added sarcastically.
Conner then broke off a few pieces and tossed each piece to Ethan, He munched a piece himself.
"I don't usually hold with foreign food," said Conner, "but this Elvish stuff, it's not bad."
"Nothing ever dampens your spirits, does it Conner?" inquired Ethan as he smiled.
.
"Those rain clouds might dampen our spirits, said Sam.
.
.
.
.
The hobbits continue trekking through difficult terrain, often huddling underneath their cloaks when it rained, to keep themselves dry, so that they wouldn't catch cold. The path of Emyn Muil became endless each time they trekked, going on for days and days. When they reached a particular spot, Conner looked around like he knew where they are.
"This looks strangely familiar," Conner mentioned.
Ethan did know this particular place as well. "…Its because we've been here before," he said, exasperated, "we're going in circles."
"Ah! What's that 'orrid stink?" gasped Sam, getting everyone's attention, "I'll warrant there's a nasty bog nearby… can you smell it?"
A few moments passed. "Yes," Frodo answered as he came up beside Sam, "…I can smell it."
Frodo then turned to face his companions and whispered, "…we're not alone."
