~Another chapter! Yay! I'd like to take this opportunity to ask anyone who
reads this to review. . . Please? I accept unsigned reviews now. . .~
"Enemies!" Shouted Navi, first in Hylian, then in Common. Although Link was in no condition to fight again, he never the less drew his sword, just as several score* orcs poured out from the bushes, screaming war cries.
Aragorn dispatched one with a quick downwards slash of his sword. Meanwhile, Legolas was firing his bow rapidly at the orc ranks. Although they didn't look it, the hobbits where fierce fighters when roused.
Though they where fighting valiantly, Aragorn knew that they wouldn't last much longer; they would be overwhelmed in minutes.
"Concentrate on the defensive!" The ranger yelled to his companions. "If we can hold out until dawn, they'll be gone!"
But dawn was fifteen minutes away. . . such a short period of time, yet too long. Navi had translated what Strider had said to link, who cried out, Why did you not tell me sooner?!
And, of all things, the Hylian pulled out his ocarina. He played a jumpy, joyful song, and a ray of light appeared right above his head. Within seconds, sunlight appeared over the horizon.
Orcs clutched their heads, their weapons lying forgotten on the ground, screaming and writhing. The sunlight was burning them. ***
Relax, and sheathe your weapons. They will trouble us no longer. The Hylian said as he leaned unsteadily against a tree. Soon after, the fellowship moved on, leaving the orc-bodies where they lay.
They rested in a clearing almost a league away. As they arrived, Link called to Frodo. I would like to try warping, if that is all right. . . I need your help. Normally, I would wait until I am more healthy, but, he shrugged. I am anxious to get home.
The hobbit nodded and came over. By this time, Navi translated so smoothly that they could communicate almost without pause. We will play the 'Serenade of Water'. Like this. He put his ocarina to his mouth and played a smooth, flowing song.
Frodo followed suite and played it to himself a few times, then said to Link, "Shall we try now?"
Link nodded, but said a warning. If all goes correctly, I will be transported to Lake Hylia. I would like to give you Saria's ocarina as a parting gift to you, Frodo. I know that the rest of the fellowship enjoys it's music. It is my way of saying 'Thank-you'
He smiled. Let's begin. Simultaneously, the two put the ocarina's to their moths and played the Serenade, as the fellowship watched on.
The clearing was enveloped in blue light, and then there was none. . . the clearing was empty.
* ~For those of you who don't know, a 'score', in this context, means 20, like a 'dozen' means 12. . . get it? ~
** ~I'd just like to apologize for my poor descriptive power. . . I'm no good at writing battle scenes. -_-; ~
*** ~ Right here, I'm just guessing what happens to the orcs in sunlight. . . it says in the books that they can't move in daylight, correct? But it never says why. . . ~
~ A little bit of a cliffhanger for you guys. . . I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and I apologize for not getting it out sooner. I'm a very lazy girl. -_-; ~
~ I'm not sure if you noticed, but I have a really, well, to say the least, horrible title. If you review, and give me a good title, I'll name a chapter after you! Or, at least dedicate one to you. ^^ So, please help me with this. I realize it's a cheap attempt to get reviews, but. . . *shrugs* I really do need a new title! Until my next chapter. . . bye bye! ~
