~^~ The Failure ~^~
DISCLAIMER: Don't own the LotR characters, but if they're for sale call me at +354....
SUMMARY: Frodo is captured by Saruman who wants to claim the ring, but.. Where is the one ring? Just read and see.. (Reviews would be really appreciated)
RATED: R, for dark themes, violence, abuse and some angst-y subjects
AN: I would had uploaded this chapter a lot sooner if it wasn't for the error in the document manager, was it just me or did everybody suffer?
- - -
Aratlithiel: Yeah, What would Frodo think? But- - what if the army doesn't reach him. *Shrugs* Who knows.
Endymion: I'm so sorry for keeping you on hold about the mystery of Sam, in fact I'm gonna explain it in this chapter, so keep on reading.
Cstini: I am a woman of promises. So I better promise nothing. I can't promise Frodo's wellfare. (Evil laugh) Oh, god I'm so bad. I promise though he won't die. I have an ending in mind and if you don't like it challenge me to write a sequel where I will be less evil.
QTPie-2488: You can cross the mystery of Sam off your list. Here comes the explanation..
Iorhael: Oh, jeez I nearly forgot you. There is some error going on around here. Your review hasn't appeared in the review box, but I found it in my inbox. I just noticed in FotR (book) that they sing on every occasion, I've only read the first one so I don't know if they're singing on their way to Mordor. LOL. And just to add to the misery I made Frodo a bit hopeful so I can tear it down as we continue.

He held his clenched fist in front of Frodo's exhausted body. At first Frodo had fought back, but at some point he had realized that he couldn't stand up against Sam and had taken the beating that Sam had poured down on him.
Now he lay limp in Sam's grip, his head lolling helplessly back. Reaching senseless and further into his nightmares.
Sam stared at the body he held up, his fist was still clenched tight while he watched Frodo struggle to stay awake, every once and again opening up his eyes, Sam could see the destruction he had made on his friend, although Frodo was a stubborn one. Sam knew his actions were starting to break him and every time he could see Frodo's eyes it broke him as well. His eyes were full of grieve, pain and.. Compassion.
Lowering his fist, he lost all the strength he had while beating Frodo, punishing him for badly chosen words. Punishing him for who he was. The strength left his arm that had held Frodo up, Frodo dropped to the floor, and his body had stopped the protesting and now lay shivering uncontrollable.
Sam watched the hobbit for a while, regret painted upon his face. He turned around and hurried out of the chamber

Saruman whirled around as the big oaken door were pushed open and in came a hobbit half of his size
"I can't do this, Master Saruman" Sam said panting "I can't hurt him"
Saruman watched as tears stared to spring in Sam's eyes
"Hush!" Saruman said as he approached "You can hurt him, you have been hurting him. Why the regrets, Samwise?"
"I've seen it's wrong.. Sir" Sam sobbed as he fell to the floor in front of the wizard
Saruman laid his hand upon the hobbit's head "All you see now is regrets, have you considered of what you saw before? You saw justice in your actions and you know just as well as I do that Frodo deserves this treatment. He's denying us power that we do deserve, power that belongs to us that only for some misfortune landed in the Baggins's care" Saruman paused "You have a heart, Sam. A big one I might say. But, isn't your heart hindering you from doing right. I can take it away. All of it, you will not feel regrets or any pain"
Sam stared in front of himself for a while. Finally he shook his head "I won't let you do this to me again, I have to have my heart to live"
"Nonsense, the heart is just a weak link in the body, heart and mind do not thrive together. It only kills you, slowly and painfully" Saruman shook his head "The heart doesn't give you power, the mind does"
He lay his staff gently on Sam's shoulder who knelt, frozen in front of him. Saruman muttered a recitation of some kind under his breath. When finishing, Sam fell to the floor, a single tear sliding down his cheek.
"You will no longer feel regrets"

"There is absolutely no way I'm letting you come along" Aragorn said as Merry and Pippin followed him to the base were the soldiers were getting ready for the journey.
"You can't stop us, Aragorn" Merry said as he stopped, Aragorn turned around, not surprised and yet impressed on Merry's stubbornness. "You know you can't. We will follow"
Aragorn let out an audible sigh
"You can't just let us wait here" Pippin said
"My cousin is out there!" Merry pointed out into the wilds "And I will not wait here, so you can bring me bad news when you return"
"Merry, I will let nothing happen to Frodo" Aragorn met Merry's eyes with sincerity "At least not if I can help it"
"We will come along" Merry said
"And you cannot help it" Pippin said
Aragorn felt like he wanted to laugh and yet cry at the same time. He knew that the two-some was more than met the eye and he still couldn't understand the love each one of the hobbits held out to one another. But he was determined to learn more about the life and customs of the hobbits, especially the life of the four ones.

Oh, I came across a very good story called "Judgement Day" by Whenhaver. Only one chapter has been posted, but please drop her a review I want to know where she's going with that one.
