Chapter 4: The FPT is attacked by smelly demented parrots
~Lauren POV~
"They are coming," Laura said quietly. Gandalf looked down at her and nodded slowly as we heard shrieks that sounded very much like demented parrots.. wait, demented parrots? *confused look* Oh well.. anyways..
"Orcs!" Legolas said.
"Thanks for telling us. I hadn't realized that by now," Laura said under her breath. But Princess Puff was too distracted to even retort.
"Get back!" Aragorn cried. "Stay close to Gandalf! Bar the doors!"
"No! Do not close the east door! We still may have a chance to get out!" Gandalf snapped back. Boromir stuck his head out the doorway just as two arrows came flying towards him.
"Damn!" he cried as he pulled his head away and slammed the door shut. "They have a cave troll," he said angrily to Aragorn. Legolas started throwing spears, axes, and anything else that was big that he could find to bar the door with.
"Hey! Hey! Be careful!" Laura said angrily. "You could take someone's eye out!"
Laura and I watched from behind the old geezer as the door started rattling and shaking. "Oh God.. oh God.. we're all gonna die.." I whimpered.
"Shuddup! No we won't!" But Laura didn't sound too confident either. We both screamed when one of the orcs outside the door smashed through with its spear. Legolas aimed his arrow at the small hole and shot. We heard a pained screech as it hit the orc.
BANG!!! BANG!!! The orcs finally smashed down the door. Legolas shot one through the throat as Aragorn shot another in the forehead. And so the battle began.
Laura, the hobbits and I watched from behind Gandalf, our eyes wide with terror. Aragorn started getting all freaky and yelling as he swiped off an orc's head. "Ew," I murmured.
"What the-?" Laura said as Frodo charged, his sword drawn and screaming. The other three midgets followed suit. "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!" I called to Laura as I followed them. "Shit.." I heard her say, but she came running behind me.
Immediately an orc came after both of us. "YEEK!" Laura screamed as it took a jab at us.
"YOU STUPID ASSHOLE!!! DON'T YOU DARE HURT MY FRIEND!!!" I roared and began jabbing it harshly with my battle knife. The demented parrot thingy got all pissed and turned on me. I screeched as it raised its scimitar, and I clenched my eyes shut. But I never felt anything slice through my arm. I opened my eyes just as a whizzing noise went by my ear and the orc fell backwards on top of Laura, an arrow through its face. I spun around and saw Legolas with his bow up in front of his face. "Thankies!" I called to him.
"Woof!" Blondie (Laura's nickname) exclaimed as she was crushed under the.. thing. "Oh, sick.. Don't these things ever BATHE!?"
~Legolas POV~
I just barely had time to draw and nock an arrow before the orc would have killed both Lauren and Laura. I smiled as Lauren turned around and yelled, "Thankies!" before helping the dead figure off her friend.
I turned as I heard a roaring sound behind me. I watched as an orc with a pointed helmet brought in the cave troll on a leash made of a thick chain. I nocked another arrow and shot into the troll's chest. But instead of going after me, it raised its club and swung at Sam, who just barely missed being crushed by diving between its legs. I turned my attention away as more orcs came after me.
~Laura POV~
"Woohoo! Go Sam!" I called as he dodged between the cave troll's legs. I was interrupted from my cheerleading moment, however, by yet ANOTHER orc that for SOME reason wanted to kill us. I don't know why! *puppy face*
"Take that, you oversized butterball!" I said, and kicked him where the sun don't shine (if you get my meaning). When he curled over, Lauren took his dropped sword and swiped off its head.
"Yay! This is great stress relief!" she said.
"EW!!! ORC BLOOD!!!" I wiped off the black substance with my hand and wiped it in her hair.
"SICK!!!" But she didn't have a chance to punch me, because Gimli was being attacked by the cave troll.
"Split up and go on its other side!" I called to Lauren. She nodded and ran over to the troll's left side.
"HEY YOU BIG SHELL-LESS TURTLE!!! WHY DON'T YOU PICK ON SOMEONE YOUR OWN SIZE!?" I screamed at it. The troll looked down at me and roared (literally) in my face. "Darlin', you need a breath mint, 'cause you have THE worst breath I ever did see," I said simply, and chucked a rock into its throat. The cave troll made a gagging noise and clutched its neck as Lauren started mutilating its left leg.
"Thank you, young maidens!" Gimli called as he swung his axe at an orc.
"YOU OWE US!" Lauren cried back. I picked up an orc scimitar and started hacking away at another parrot. Heheh.. parrot.. funny..
"Laura!! Lookie!!" Lauren called. I stopped and watched as Legolas came within inches of getting his own head swiped off by the cave troll's chain. "NEAT-O!!!" I screamed as he ran up the chain and fired an arrow into its head and jumped off. "GO LEGGY!! GO LEGGY!! IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!! IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY.. YEEK!!!"
The cave troll came after ME!! Yes, me!! What did I do? I was just an innocent bystander.. Okay, maybe not INNOCENT, but I was still a bystander! I jumped under a fallen pillar and hid as it stalked by. "Too close.. WAY too close!" I panted.
I crawled out just as the troll trapped Frodo. "ARAGORN!" he screamed, but it was too late. The cave troll took the spear and drove it into Frodo's stomach. At first I wanted to scream, but then I remembered that he was gonna be okay. So I turned around and hit an orc in the face with my sword. Just as I finally killed it, I heard a groaning sound behind me. I spun around and just barely missed being crushed by the dead cave troll.
"Woohoo, that was close!" I said to no one in particular, because everyone had run over to where Frodo was lying. I rolled my eyes as I walked up to them.
"Oh no.." Aragorn muttered.
"He's fine! He's just being a drama queen," I said as I crossed my arms over my chest. Everyone looked at me, horrified. I grinned as Frodo started groaning again. "Told ya," I said simply.
"I'm alright! I'm not hurt!" he panted as he sat up. Yadda yadda yadda.. My eyes got big as he opened his shirt and showed the mithril armor. "Oooh.. Shiny.." I said with a smirk. Legolas looked at me and rolled his eyes. I wrinkled my nose in disgust when Sam reached out and started to touch the silver chain mail. "Perv," Lauren muttered. I giggled.
Suddenly we heard SQUAWK!!! SQUAWK!!! SQUAWK!!! from outside the tomb. "Oh no!!!" Lauren yelped. "The parrots came back!!!" Everyone turned and stared at her as I started laughing.
~Aragorn POV~
"Parrots?" I asked. All I got for an answer was laughter.
Gandalf rolled his eyes. "To the bridge of Khazad-dum!" he cried. We ran as fast as we could out the east door of the tomb.
As we ran back through the giant hall, thousands of orcs poured out of the cracks in the walls. They climbed down the pillars and began chasing us. But no matter how fast we ran, we still became surrounded by the demon creatures. Legolas drew an arrow and fitted it to his bow, while Boromir and I pulled out our swords from our sheathes. Suddenly it became quiet.
"ROOAAAR!!!" A huge growl filled the air, and the orcs started jumping and squealing. We watched as a bright light filled the usually dark chamber. The orcs climbed back up the huge pillars and disappeared.
"What is this new devilry?" Boromir murmured. Gandalf closed his eyes and appeared to be deep in thought.
"A Balrog," he answered solemnly, lifting up his face. "A demon of the ancient world." Legolas' eyes filled with terror, and he seemed frozen in place. Lauren placed a hand on his shoulder, and he nearly jumped a foot. "Legolas?" she said quietly.
"This foe is beyond any of you," Gandalf said. "RUN!" And by the Valar, we ran.
We ran down a flight of stairs out into a giant underground cave. Boromir was first, but the stairs ended suddenly. I thought he would fall down into the deeps, but Legolas caught him and pulled him back. Once I was sure both of them were alright, I turned back to Gandalf.
"Gandalf!?" I asked.
"Go Aragorn! The bridge is near!" He pointed with his walking stick towards an arc across the vast emptiness. I tried to grab him and pull him along with me, but he shoved me away. "Go! Swords are of no more use here!" I ran down some more stairs. (It seemed like the whole blasted city was stairs!)
Now we were running down a ramp type thing made of stairs.. that is, until we reached a six-foot gap in them. We all halted and looked at it. Legolas was the first to jump, then he turned around. "Gandalf!" he called.
Another roar split through the air, and huge boulders fell off the walls. Gandalf looked behind him, then leaped.
~Legolas POV~
I caught Gandalf just as he reached the other side of the gap. Suddenly an arrow flew through the air and landed right at Laura and Lauren's feet. "Holy shit!" Laura screamed, leaping back. I looked up: Orcs were firing arrows from almost four hundred yards away down at us. I nocked an arrow and aimed. It hit the orc right in his forehead. He fell into the abyss screaming.
I turned my attention back to my companions on the other side of the bridge. "Aragorn! Get them across!" I called. He turned to the hobbits and tossed them over one by one. Then he turned to Gimli. "No one tosses a Dwarf!" he declared, then tried to leap over himself. I knew he wouldn't make it when he was halfway across. He barely landed with his feet on the ledge. I reached out and grabbed him by his beard. "NOT THE BEARD!!!" he shouted. I rolled my eyes and gave his face a good jerk, which brought him on the stairs all the way. He mumbled as he walked back behind me, gently rubbing his chin.
I turned back again to the remaining four people: Frodo, Laura, Lauren, and Aragorn. "Laura! Jump!" I cried. She bit her lip and nodded. She leapt more than far enough. She landed a foot behind me, just as another boulder fell and made the gap another two feet wider.
"Nice!" Lauren called to her friend. "Ready?" she asked. Laura and I nodded, and she gulped. "Okay, here goes.." and she jumped.
I swear by the Valar, both of those children are accident-prone. Lauren flew through the air, but didn't make it to the other side. A foot away from our side of the gap, she started falling. "LAURA!!!!" she screamed.
Laura lunged out and barely caught her friend's hand. "OH MY GOD!!!" she screeched. "LEGOLAS!! HELP ME!!!" I quickly knelt down and helped her pull Lauren up.
Now only Aragorn and Frodo were left on the other side. But another roar sounded, and yet ANOTHER boulder fell onto-
~Laura POV~
Dude, you talk too much! Anyways, it's exactly what happened in the movie.
So we all are running across the bridge, when we finally see the Balrog up close. I turned around at the middle of the bridge and froze. It was the most horrifying thing I've ever seen. Again, it was the same as the movie, but scarier.
So then Gandalf shoves me and tells me to go all the way to solid ground on the other side of the bridge. I ran my ass off just as the Balrog pulled out his fire sword thingamajig. "You cannot pass!" the old dude yelled. Even though I knew what was going to happen, I was still terrified.
"ROOOOAAR!!!" said the Balrog.
"Yeek!" said I.
"Go back to the Shadow!" said Gandalf.
"ROOOOAAR!!!" said the Balrog.. again. He brought down his sword against Gandalf's little dome of light thing, but it just shattered.
"YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" Gandalf yelled. And he smashed his staff against the bridge. Nothing happened.
The Balrog stepped out onto the narrow rock ledge, and it crumbled beneath him. Gandalf watched calmly as it fell down into the bottomless canyon. And then.. *gulp*, the Balrog took its whip and wrapped it around his ankle, and pulled him down.
Gandalf looked at our horrified faces. "Fly you fools!" And then he was gone.
~Lauren POV~
"NOOOOOO!!!" Frodo screamed. I felt so sorry for the poor little bugga. Boromir picked him up and started running for the exit. All of us followed except for Aragorn, who was still staring at the spot that Gandalf had disappeared from.
"ARAGORN!!! C'MON!!!" I yelled. He seemed to snap out of a trance, and he followed us out of Moria.
When we finally exited the Mines, the scenery was just like that in the movie. A big slab of rock, basically. We all found our own little places to sit down at. Everyone seemed sad except for Aragorn, Laura and I. Although, I'm sure Aragorn was crushed, because I think he was really close to Gandalf.
Laura came over and sat next to me, and we started talking silently in Pig Latin (although I'll make it less confusing and put it in normal English).
"Should we tell them that it'll be alright?" she asked me.
"No. Think about what might happen if they knew," I explained.
She nodded. "You're right. I guess I'm sort of sad myself."
"Yeah, me too." We wrapped our arms around each other's shoulders.
"Legolas! Get them up," Aragorn commanded. (I think he's a Neo Nazi in disguise..) Legolas nodded, and started to help, when Boromir acted like a dumbass and tried to argue.
"Give it a rest, you asshole," Laura muttered. "Let's just get to Lorien and get going."
"What?" I asked.
"What?"
"You said 'Let's get to Lauren and get going.'"
"No, dumb-dumb. I said LORIEN."
"Oooh," I said with a look of revelation. "Yeah, let's go."
