Corruption
Realisation and Another dream - Chap Two
Merry and Pippin sat in shocked silence. They too had interpreted the dream as a warning.
"But how?" His face looked worried and tired. Neither of them had got back to sleep after waking after the dream.
"How did Sauron get to her? Does this mean Frodo and Sam are in more danger than before?" Merry shook his head.
"I don't know, Pippin. I don't think anyone would. Maybe that was the point of the warning."
As Merry lay down and studied the leaves on the tree above him, sudden fatigue swamped his already exhausted mind. Exhausted from the stress of possible danger to the lives of their friends and from fear of their current situation, stuck with unpleasant, foul smelling Uruk-Hai.
Merry's eyes started to flutter shut and Pippin let his older cousin sleep, keeping watch for any sign of movement from the Uruks.
Another dream came swiftly to the mind of Meriadoc. He was half expecting it, but it still came as a bit of a surprise. But what he saw shocked him to the bone.
Sauron, still clad in black, his face completely hidden, was holding a sword tightly against Galadriel's throat, forcing her to watch as her people and Sauron's armies were fighting for Lothlorien.
Galadriel was a mess, her once beautiful and flawless face looking worn and tired. Her long blonde hair was tangled and dirty, her white dress torn and bloodied.
But the thing that really caught the eye of the young Hobbit was her eyes. They were full of bitterness and remorse.
"Please stop." She said in a small voice. Her body language concluded Merry's fears; she had given up hope of fighting against Sauron.
Sauron just laughed.
Merry tried to catch a glimpse of the dark lord's face, but all he saw was the eye. Sauron used his free hand to brush back the hair from Galadriels face and caress her cheek. "Join me, my Lady, and it will all stop."
Galadriel was silent, tears streaming down her face.
"I will not, never!" She said firmly.
Sauron pulled his hand back and sucked in a sharp breath, as if she had just slapped him. "Then this won't end." He gestured to the bodies of dead and wounded elves (and orcs) that littered the Forests of Lothlorien.
Sauron chuckled to himself.
Merry could see Galadriels face turn from sorrow to anger. She looked so angry, Merry was certain she would burst.
"I would much like to see your granddaughter." Sauron said casually, as if arranging a visit.
"You leave Arwen alone!" Galadriel said, her voice shaking with anger.
Sauron sighed. "I pity you elves, really. You are all powerless against me."
Galadriel shuddered knowing it was true.
Merry was jerked from his brief sleep by Pippin. "Come on, Merry!" He said with a note of urgency in his voice. He helped the sleepy Hobbit to his feet as he was shaking all over from the horror of the dream.
Merry looked at Pippin, tears welling in his eyes.
"I saw her again, Pip." He said in a quiet voice.
Pippin looked at Merry with a cheerless face.
"I know, Merry. I saw her too."
Merry sighed and ran a heavy hand through his hair.
"How could he do that? How can he be so cruel?"
Pippin shrugged and stretched his arms over his head, and letting out a loud yawn.
"I don't know, Merry. I just don't know." He said, casting a nervous look in the direction of the Uruk-Hai.
Then, two of the Uruk-Hai stopped the two hobbits from conversing any further by picking them up and separating them. They were on the move again.
Merry sighed and prepared himself for what looked like a long day.

Hello pplz, thanks for your reviews. Uh, about the paragraphing, I have no idea how to get it so it doesn't block (I've been trying, believe me. I uploaded the first chapter like a ten times and then removing it cos it kept blocking.) Advice on this would be very much appreciated.
