Chapter 25: Gollum and Smeagol
Conner and Ethan are sleeping. Its night and Ethan sleeps holding the Ring in his hand. Gollum looks at them, he is sitting next to some pillars.
"We wants it. We needs it," said Gollum, "…must have the precioussss. They stole it from us. Sneaky little hobbitsesss… wicked, trickssssy, falssse!"
"No! Not Master," Gollum said, contradicting himself.
.The warring Gollum continued his inner battle as the Gollum side took control again, "yes, precious, false. They will cheat you, hurt you, lie! All four of them will lie."
Smeagol countered, "master's my friend."
"You don't have any friends. Nobody likes you."
Smeagol then began to cover his ears in a panic, "not listening… I'm not listening…"
"You are a liar and a thief…"
"Nope."
.
"…Murrrrdererrrr…"
.
After that last remark, Smeagol, began to cry and whimper, "…go away."
"Go away," Gollum cackled, "HAHAHAHA!"
"I hate you," said Smeagol, silently, capping his head over his forehead, "…I hate you!"
."Where would you be without me?" said Gollum fiercely, "Gollum, Gollum I saved us. It was me… we survived because of me!"
"Not… anymore," Smeagol said as he let his hand down slowly, starting to fight back.
"What did you say?" asked a perplexed Gollum.
"…Master looks after us now," Smeagol said with more confidence, "we don't need you."
"…What?"
eave now," demanded Smeagol, slowly and silently, "and never come back."
"No!" snarled a defiant Gollum.
"Leave now, and never… come back!"
"Arrrgh!"
.
"LEAVE NOW… AND NEVER… COME BACK…!"
.
.
.
.
After a few moments… Smeagol panted and looked around. It seemed that the good side had prevailed!
.
"We… we told him to go away," cried Smeagol, "…and away he goes, preciousss."
Smeagol then hopped in joy, dancing, feeling a sense of freedom. He was truly free for the first time in five hundred years.
"Gone! Gone! Gone! Smeagol is free!" he cried gleefully.
