Hey all!! Here is the next chapter.....Tell me what you think! Have a great day!!!
Chapter 14
"Prisoners, come with us!" commanded the orc-guard. Jenny and the Fellowship were led outside to where Jordan had been testing cannons for the past several hours.
"The cannons are ready!" he announced, grinning as he approached them. "Surely you have some idea of how cannons work, don't you, old man? Although, they are far superior to your little rocket toys...if not quite as pretty."
"Here now!" bellowed Sam. "I wouldn't go poking fun at old Gandalf if I was you! And his fireworks ain't nothing to scoff at, either! Why, they've been a legend in the Shire for as long as I can remember! You just watch your step, you scoundrel!"
Jordan smirked at this outburst. "A 'scoundrel', am I? That hurts; right here." He patted his chest. Sam frowned.
"What have you done with Bill?!" he demanded.
"Who's Bill?"
"My pony!"
"....ah...." Jordan motioned for them to be led after him. "The horse and pony are right here in the stable," he said. "I thought we might have pony stew for supper tonight..." He grinned maliciously.
"You touch him and I'll have your head!!!" Sam roared. Merry and Pippin had to hold him back to keep him from lunging at Jordan.
"That," Jordan laughed, "I would love to see."
"Ebony!!" Jenny cried, running to her horse. Ebony nickered happily at the sight of her master. Jenny was so glad to find that the precious animal was alive and unhurt that she did not notice Jordan hovering behind her.
"You could have horses..." he whispered in her ear. "Stabled of them. And think of all the room to ride!!"
Jenny did not even turn to face him. "Ebony is enough for me."
"Yes..." he murmured thoughtfully. "So I see. It would be a pity if anthing should HAPPEN to her....."
Jenny wheeled around, her blue eyes stinging cold. "If you REALLY cared about me, you'd let us go. It would be a pity if anything should happen to YOU....well, never mind. No it wouldn't."
"Is that a threat?"
"Take it how you like."
"Oooo. Firey, aren't we? Did someone get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?"
"That might be plausible if I had been GIVEN a bed to wake up in!!"
"Ah, I see...tell you what...why don't you tell me which of your friends carries that pretty gold Ring...and I'll give you your own quarters. A nice room with a soft feather bed and a walk in closet, some new clothes, and a portable stereo with CD's! You'd like that, wouldn't you?" His offer was incredibly tempting....but Jenny would not be swayed by words alone.
"Show it to me."
"Very well. Right this way, baby."
"Jordan?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't EVER call me that again."
As the orc-gaurds came to take them back to their cell, the nine men stared on in disbelief at their only hope for escape....who was discussing curtain colors with the enemy.
Ha ha ha ha ha!!!! Lovely mess they've gotten themselves into, isn't it? La la la....and only I know what's going to happen!!! Hehehe....I love being evil! Well, review please!!
