Corruption
Chapter Four - A weak point.
"What?" Galadriel asked, her voice kinder, trying to lull Sauron into a false sense of..what? Understanding? She shook her head, figuratively, ridding her head of these thoughts. She had to concentrate.
"What have you lost, Dark One?"
Sauron tipped his head back and surveyed the treetops above him. "I think you know."
"Your ring?" "Yes, my Ring." He snapped irritably, lowering his head enough to glare at her. "What else?"
Galadriel smiled inwardly, taking pains to keep her outward face clear of any emotion. She had hit a weak point.
'Stupid.' She told herself. 'You're completely and utterly stupid. Of course that's his weak point.'
The Uruks stopped at nightfall. By then, they were smellier than ever and very annoyed. One decided to open his mouth and complain.
"We're going no further until we've had a breather!"
The head Uruk, Uglúk rolled his eyes.
"Get a fire going!" He roared back at the tired and grumpy Uruks. The Uruk-Hai started taking their rest and Pippin took this opportunity to wriggle his way over to Merry.
"Had another dream." Pippin said quietly, his face downcast. Merry nodded and put his head in his hands.
"I can't take much more of it, Pippin." He said through his fingers, his voice muffled. "I think we may have made a mistake leaving the Shire."
Frodo and Sam walked among the rocky terrain, heads down. They hadn't said a word to each other since the realisation that they had had they same dream. They hadn't spoken since they came to the conclusion that it was a warning, not a coincidence.
It was Sam who broke the long, uncomfortable silence. "Uh, Mr. Frodo? This looks strangely familiar."
Frodo lifted his head and let out a huge sigh of frustration.
"That's because we've been here before!" He cried, his eyes filling with unwept tears. He grabbed the Ring beneath his shirt, swallowed the angry tears and looked up at Sam.
"We're going in circles!"

I know that was extremely short, but I've written all these other chapters and if I kept continuing this one, it wouldn't make sense. Thanks very much to my reviewers. The story gets a little darker from now on; some deaths and I change the storyline a bit. So if you think "Hey, that doesn't happen in the movie," that's why. Well, ok, I change the storyline a lot.
