More humor.and a mob of orcs coming right up!
A Took, A Dwarf and A Well!
Slowly, my eyes began to adjust to the light, when Gandalf lit the little stone on his staff. " Now we must face the long, dark of Moria. Be on your guard, there are fouler things than orcs in the deep places of the world." Everyone fell into line, Cindil and me in front of the Mirkwood prince. We climbed a large staircase, dodging slipping hobbits and dead bodies. There wasn't much talk between Cindil and myself, since we kept getting glares from Gimli and we returned each one. Legolas' presents was calming and kept us at ease. Ever now and then, a small sound would reach my ear and I'd jump, only to feel the elf's strong hand on my shoulder. The top of the stairs came into view and I heard Cindil sigh. Gandalf was in the lead and he stopped, looking at the three doorways in front of us. " I don't remember this place," he said, sitting down on a rock to think. Everyone settled down to rest and Cindil and I found ourselves curled up between Legolas' feet. The elf stared fondly down at the two females half asleep on the stone floor. He found himself having feelings he'd never felt before. These girls needed him, and he was going to protect them until his death. He smiled softly and closed his eyes, never wanting the image of them to fade. Just then, Gandalf remembered the way to go and the elf's eyes snapped open. He stepped over the girl and crouched down behind them. "Awake little ones. We must press on," and he gingerly stroked our necks with three of him fingers. We opened our eyes and stood with some help from Legolas. We followed the group sleepily, down another staircase and into a very large hall. "Behold, the Dwarven City of Dwarrandelf," said Gandalf and everyone gaped around at the wonder in front of them. We walked towards the far side, but Gimli stopped us. He ran of through an entryway to our right and knelt in front of what looked like and alter. We soon joined him as Gandalf read aloud," Here lies Balin, son of Fundin, Lord of Moria." Gimli began to weep and cry as Gandalf handed Pippin his hat and staff and picked up a rather old looking book. I heard Legolas whisper something to Aragorn as Gandalf began to read from the book he held. I wasn't listen to his words as I watched Pippin regard a Dwarf who was propped up in the edge of a well. Cindil poked me in the shoulder and began to whisper in my ear. A smiled spread over my lips as Pippin knocked the dwarf into the well. Cindil and I burst into song," Pip knocked a dwarf down the well, I think he's high!" We laughed and collapsed on the floor at the very disturbed looks on everyone's faces. We slowly stopped as the banging of the dwarf's body dwindled away. Legolas' ears were perked up and I thought for a moment he looked like " a curious little puppy," which made me giggle a little. Suddenly the sound of a large group of orcs could be heard from in the hall. Boromir, Aragorn and Legolas barred the door and readied to fight. Cindil and I were given swords to fight and we waited. The orcs broke through the doors sooner than expected and the fight began. Cindil and I fought fiercely and killed many orcs. A cave troll joined us and attacked everyone. I stayed out of its way and continued fighting the orcs. Soon only the cave troll remained and everyone was ganging up on it. Pippin and Merry were holding onto the metal collar around its neck. I reached for my lasso and prepared to hold it. My noose landed around the troll's neck and I was lifted off the ground. Legolas' heart pounded in his chest when he heard me scream. He whipped out his bow and an arrow but watched in horror as the cave troll flung me into one of the pillars, which supported the ceiling. Over come by fear and hatred, he readied his bow and shot it, hitting his intended target. The troll toppled and fell, hitting the ground hard. Everyone, except Legolas and Cindil, ran to where they saw Frodo's body lay. Once they were sure he was all right, they turned to see where I had landed. Legolas had me half pulled into his lap; silent tears fell from his eyes. I opened my eyes and Legolas cradled me in his arm. " You scared me. Don't ever do that again," he said helping me up. The sound of more orcs reached our ears and Gandalf turned to us. " To the Bridge of Khazah- Dum!" A new side to Legolas is unfolding. Pleaz R&R! I love all you loyal readers! More Elves to come soon!
