~*~ Chapter 11 ~*~
Merry and Pippin looked out the window when they stopped and saw, to their horror, almost a thousand Orcs and Five Wraiths and Gollum. They looked at each other nervously.
"Are you ready Pip," Merry asked?
"Uh. Yes," he smiled, "I hope I am anyway."
"Come on little ones," Boromir said from the door, "We will protect you." "I don't like him," Pippin whispered to Merry as they followed him out.
"Neither do I," Merry replied.
On their way out, they met Harry. They all walked out together quietly. No one spoke, not Dumbledore, not Gandalf, not anyone.
"Gandalf," Frodo whispered as they stood ready to face the line.
"Yes Frodo," Gandalf asked?
"Are we going to die," he asked?
"Of course not," Gandalf smiled.
"Give us the Halflings," the Wraith leader hissed.
"They has the Precious," Gollum whispered, "We want's it, yesss. We must have it, Gollum. Gollum. We must not let them take it. We must not let Him have it, nooo Precious."
"I said give us the Halflings," the Wraith hissed again.
"Just a little longer," Dumbledore whispered, "Keep them occupied. Don't let them attack."
"But why would you want such ugly, stupid, boring people like them," Hermione asked?
"One of them has something we want," it hissed.
"How do you know? What if they lost it or gave it to someone else. I mean, what if I have it or him or him," Hermione said pointing at Ron and Harry.
"Then we will take you three as well as the Halflings," it said.
It was again quiet. No one spoke. Then the landscape behind the Orcs began to ripple and wave. A large circle or golden light appeared behind them. The Orcs began to panic, not knowing what to do, they tried to run.
"Stupefy," Dumbledore yelled as the Orcs ran.
Harry, Ron and Hermione did the same. They froze the outer circle and the other's couldn't get out. The Wraith hissed angrily.
"I will have the Halflings," it said charging forward but at the same moment a great army of Elves on horseback emerged from the portal.
"Stupefy," Harry, Ron and Hermione yelled pointing at the Wraith who stopped but was unaffected by their spell.
The Elves circled around the monsters and sent the Wraith back towards the circle. The Orcs the were frozen became unfrozen and were even more scared than before. The Elves closed the circle around them and forced them toward the portal. The first Orcs fell through it as the Elves closed in. They continued closing the circle until all that was left were the Wraiths. The Wraiths hissed and turned their horses through the portal. The Elves followed. One of them turned around and rode towards the company. Pippin looked up from the place he had been laying with his head covered.
"Are they gone Merry," he asked.
"They're gone Pippin," Merry said with a laugh, "I thought you would be better since we attacked that Troll."
"That was different," Pippin said standing up and wiping his hands on his pants, "We had a reason to fight."
"I love you Pippin," Merry said giving him a hug.
"Ew! Yuck! Let go of me," Pippin said jumping out his cousins arms.
"I'm your cousin, I'm allowed to say I love you. And any way, I don't love you like that. I have someone back home. She is very pretty," Merry said thoughtfully.
"Who! Who! Come on Merry," Pippin said with a smile.
The others watched Merry and Pippin and laughed the whole time. The horse finally reached them. Frodo recognized the Elf as Haladir.
"Haladir," Legolas smiled, "Amin mellon, what are you doing here?"
Haladir smiled and dismounted from his horse, "Gandalf told us where you were before he came looking for you. He told us to be ready with a great army. But, come quickly all of you. We must get back before the portal closes."
"I am afraid he is right," Gandalf said, "We better go. We don't have much time."
"Say your good-byes quickly," Dumbledore said.
The Hobbits said good-bye to Harry and Ron and Hermione. Gandalf said good-bye to his brother. When all had finished, they walked over to the portal. Pippin turned around and waved before they all disappeared through the portal.
Harry felt strangely attached to the four Hobbits once they were gone. Dumbledore herded them back to the train and they rode back to the castle with no talking. Once they got there, Dumbledore sent them up to their rooms and told them to get some sleep and to not come back down until they were well rested.
"Harry," Ron whispered from his bed.
"What," Harry asked?
"Will we ever see them again?" Ron asked.
"I'm not sure," Harry said.
"Harry," Ron began again.
"Ron, get some sleep. You need it more than I do," Harry smiled to himself.
"Alright," Ron sighed turning over on his good side, "Good night Harry."
"Good morning Ron," Harry smiled watching the sun slowly rising over the forest out of the window. "Right," Ron said falling asleep instantly.
Harry finished the year out, not eventful at all. Ron often got sick over the rest of the year. Dumbledore said it was because of his arm. Hermione aced her tests and Ron and Harry did fine. They went home at the end of the year wondering if they would ever see the Fellowship again.
A/N: Okay so sue me if this chapter sucks. I know it does but I ran out of ideas. I hope you like my story and I will get the Epilogue up very soon. Thank you everyone for your support. Please R&R! Bye.
