Strider= Thanks for your review, I'm glad you like my story! My favorite Lord of the Rings character is Sam, and my favorite HP character is Ron. How about you? :-)

March 15

Right now is is night time. Last night, while I was just lightly sleeping, Merry came to me and woke me up.

"What did you wake me up for?" I asked.

"Come one, King Theoden and Eomer are meeting with someone. I'd like to go listen in to them."

I was immediatley interested. "They're meeting with someone?" I asked, "who are they meeting with?"

"I don't know, but apparently it's some sort of secret meeting."

"Like the secret meeting in Rivendell?" I asked, raising my eyebrow.

"Something like that, only this time I believe they're talking about the battle."

"Oh," I said, getting up. "Well then, let's get going."

Merry and I headed toward the 'secret meeting', and we got there in time to hear a strange voice say, "We do not like these orc-folk." Merry and I hid behind a tree.

"Then will you aid us in the battle?" I heard Eomer's voice say.

"Yes," replied the strange voice, "For weapons we have arrows. Arrows that are poisoned at the tip."

"If someone gets hit by one of these arrows, how long is it until they die?"

"Long. If someone gets hit with one of these arrows, they will have a long, slow, and painful death."

I couldn't take anymore of this, and neither, apparently, could Merry, so we both went away, and went back to where I had been sleeping.

"Well," said Merry, "We sould probably get some rest. We certainly don't want to get killed tomorrow during the battle because we're too tired." Merry went away, and I then fell asleep.

Now the Rohan soldiers are riding towards the battle. I'm scared. What would happen if I was killed? I musn't think about it. I must go, for we are about to ride into the battle. Good bye.
