1 Chapter 2- Learning of the danger
Aragorn was worried when Legolas hadn't returned when night had fell. The others were silent and not talking to Aragorn, maybe because they did not want to interrupt him while he was thinking, or maybe because they were scared of what he might say to them if they did ask him what he and Legolas were arguing about. All they could do was whisper and wait for Legolas to return.
"Merry, have Legolas and Aragorn fallen out because of us?" Pippin asked worriedly.
"Don't be stupid Pippin, it's about Gandalf, that's what I'll be thinking" Sam replied. Frodo sighed at the two arguing quietly and he let his eyes wander to where Aragorn was sitting, far from everyone else and in deep thought. Bravely Frodo wandered over and placed himself at Aragorn's side.
"Aragorn," Frodo began, he found himself quite lost for words but managed to get a few out before trailing off into silence. "We are worried." Aragorn smiled at the concerned hobbit and replied, "so am I Frodo, so am I." This confused Frodo, and he was about to ask 'what about', when loud growls and screeches came from the bushes.
Instantly, everyone was up, holding on to their weapons and in a circle (in the middle of the campsite). All was silent for a while, and the fellowship began to grow easy, but then suddenly a dark creature leapt form the trees and attacked Boromir. Then another followed, doing the same to Gimli, then another for Sam, then 3 others for Pippin, Merry and Frodo. Lastly 2 others jumped out and one bit Aragorn's arms. The ranger cried out and dropped his sword, but made a comeback by kicking the foul creature in the back. It recoiled but all most at once came back at him. Aragorn noticed his eyesight was getting blurred and it was harder to move without stumbling. Still he fought on, and then realised, most of the fellowship had fallen, he knew that the creature had poisoned them all but desperately he reached out fro his sword and slashed at the enemy, the last member fell (who was Boromir) and Aragorn was left alone to defend himself. He noticed how only one was attacking and the others looked around as if trying to find something. He wondered what for a second but then paid attention to fighting. By now his arms felt heavy and no matter how he tried, he could not score a hit at the swift moving creature. The poison was taking affect quickly, and finally after what seemed a long time; Aragorn fell, not really knowing what was happening. All he remembered was the faint laughing and with his last ounce of strength he whispered 'Legolas, where are you?'
Legolas landed softly on the dusty ground of the campsite. Everything lay on the ground. The cooking pans, cloaks, packs and most alarmingly, weapons. Nervously, Legolas examined everything and found signs of a fight but no blood. He gulped and stood up straight taking in all that had happened, but found no reason to why it had. His thoughts drifted again, and this time Gandalf's voice floated through the wind it whispered so quietly Legolas had trouble hearing it,
'Legolas, they need your help, find them and take them from the darkness they are about to endure, their lives depend on you now'
Legolas sighed as his vision blurred and he returned back to reality. Only to find a dark monster feet away and running fast towards him. Quickly, and without thinking Legolas threw himself to the ground, rolled and was up, facing the miserable creature whose eyes danced with evil. It leapt at Legolas, hoping it would be able to bite him (poison) but to no prevail. Legolas sidestepped out of the way and brought his arrow up to aim at the creature. It was getting nearer and nearer and it jumped but Legolas let his arrow fly and it scored a hit in the creature's head. The body smashed against Legolas' and he fell backwards under the weight of the foul smelling decapitated form.
Struggling up, Legolas gasped part in shock, part in annoyance as the body melted away as if it were made of ice on an extremely hot day. He turned his attention back to the campsite and spied something gleaming in the soil. Kneeling, Legolas, dusted all the dirt and dust from the object and found it to be Aragorn's sword. The lurching feeling in his stomach got worse and he thought what he was to do.
Finally he came to the decision of following the only signs of where the fellowship had gone. He pieced the riddle together and came to the conclusion that whatever the creature that he had just encountered was, must have taken the fellowship (with the aid of some friends) and either killed them or taken as prisoners. He moved under the cover of night as he began a long winding road to find his friends.
Pippin was the first to awaken, though he wished he wasn't. All around him he could see the bodies of his friends. This panicked the little hobbit, for he thought them dead, until his eyesight became clearer and he could see them breathing clearly. The last thing he noticed was that Lgeolas wasn't here and that they were fighting when he blacked out next to Merry. Feeling sick and cold from the Poison he snuggled down in hope of someone to rescue them…
