Dislcaimer: I don´t own anything of the Lord Of The Rings. It all belongs
to J.R.R Tolkien
Note: Thanks for the reviews. For all the people that said that they didn´t know Joyce read part one. Hope you like it. I am still looking for any ideas on titel or anything else. So please post some of them.
That evening they made camp along the boarder of Fangorn Forest. Making a small fire with the dead tree branches that were lying around them. "What about the horses?" Joyce askes. "Well we can´t take them with us into the forest. They are better of if we leave them here to run free. I doubt it we will need them." Aragorn answered the question. "Sleep. We all keep watch in turn." Aragorn said. With that Legolas, Joyce and Gimli went to sleep while Aragorn took the first watch. The night passes in peace.
The next day the entered Fangorn forest. "Orc blood!" Gimli says while spitting on the ground. Joyce is looking around. Aragorn looks at the tracks on the ground. "These are strange tracks" He tells the others. "The air is so close in here" Gimli point out. "This forest is old. Very old. Full of memory and ... anger:" Legolas says while looking off into the disctance. "Is it as old as Mirkwood?" Joyce asks the Elf. Looking back Legolas answeres. "No. It is not. And the air is not as thick in Mirkwood eigher."
Groans can be heard. Gimli raises his axe. "The trees are speaking to eachother." Legolas looks in wonder. Aragorn tells Gimli in the mean time to lower his axe. The dwarf does so but ver slowly. "They have feelings my friend. The Elves began it; waking up the trees, teaching them to speak." Legolas explains to Gimli. "Talking trees? What do tree go to talk about? Except the consistency of squirrel droppings?" Gimli answeres in return. Joyce shakes her head.
Legolas is tencing up. "Aragorn, nad no ennas! (Aragorn, something is out there)" He says to Aragorn in a low voice. The man looks at him before moving closer. "Man cenich? (What do you see?)" He asks. Gimli looks at Joyce with a questioning look in his eyes. Joyce is listening to the coversation. She can feel something coming but she doesn´t know what it is. "The white wizard approaces" Legolas finaly says. "Do not let him speak. He will put a spell on us." Aragorn says reaching for his sword. Legolas pulls out an arrow and Gimli raises his axe again. Joyce has a blue energy ball in her hand. "We must be quick" The man says before yelling and turning around.
Gimli´s axe and Legolas arrows are deflected. The engeryball of Joyce is melted in the sky. Aragorn drops his sword when it gets to hot to handle. Pulling her arms infront of her eyes to shield herself from the light that emerges from the wizard Joyce looks at him. "You are tracking the footsteps of two young Hobbits" The voice that belong to the wizard speaks. It sound formiliar but Joyce can not place it. "Where are they?" Aragorn shouts in return. "They passes this way the day before yesterday. The met someone they did not expect. Does that comfort you?" The wizards asks. "Who are you? Show yourself." Aragorn orders.
The light dims and reveals Gandalf. But not the Grey but Gandalf the White. Everyone looks in awe. "It cannot be." Aragorn says in wonder. "Forgive me. I mistook you for Saruman" Legolas says while sitting down on his knees. Gimli follows him. Joyce can only stare. "I am Saruman. Or rather Saruman as he should have been." Gandalf answeres. "You fell?!" Aragorn says still in wonder. "Trought fire and water. From the lowerst dungeon to the highest peak, I fought with the Balrog of Morgoth. Until at last, I trew down my enemy and smote his ruin upon the mountainside. Darness took me. And I strayed out of tought and time. Stars wheeled overhead and everyday was as long as a life-age of the earth. But it was not the end. I felt life in me again. I have been sent back until my task is done." He explains.
"Gandalf" Aragorn says. "Gandalf? Yes.... That was what they used to call me. Gandalf the Grey. That was my name." He smiles. "Gandalf" Gimli says fondely. "I am Gandalf the White. And I come back to you at the turn of the tide" He says with a twinckle in his eyes. Legolas also smiles. Joyce has recovered from her daze and runs at Gandalf. Hugging him with all her might she burries her face into his cloak. "I missed you so much." She tells him her voice a bit muffled. Returning the hug the wizard says. "I could never truly leave you, My little one. Not after what we been trough. Now if you would let go we can move. There is enought time for us to talk." He says while gently trying to get her to let go of him. As she let´s go she smiles trough her tears.
While Gandalf begint walking, Legolas puts his arms around her waist and pulls her close. Joyce smiles in content. Gandalf sees it but doesn´t say anything. "One stage of your journey is over, another begins. We must ride to Edoras with all speed." He says while walking towards the egde of the forest. "Edoras that is not a short distance." Gimli tells the wizard. "We head of trouble in Rohan. It goes ill with the king." Aragorn adds. "Yes, and it will not be easily cured." Gandalf says.
"Then we have run all this way for nothing? Are we going to leave these poor Hobbits in this horrid, dark, dank tree-infested?" Gimli asks. More groans are heard. "I mean, charming, quite chamring forest" Gimli adds fast while looking around in fear. "It was more them mere change that brought Merry and Pippin here. A great poer has been sleeping here for many years. The coming of Merry and Pippin will belike the falling of small stones that starts an avalanche int he mountains." Gandalf asnweres Gimli´s question. "In one thing you still have not changed my friend. You still speak in riddles." Aragorn tells him with a smile. All of them laugh. Growing serious ones more Gandalf says. "A thing is about to happen that has not happend since the Elder Days. The Ents are going to wake up and ..... find that they are strong." "Strong?! O that is good!" Gimli adds fast when the trees groan again. "So stop your fretting Master Dwarf. Merry and Pippin are quite safe. In fact, they are safer then you are about to be." Gandalf tells him. "This Gandalf is more grumpier then the old one" Gimli adds to himself.
Outside of the Forest Legolas, Joyce and ragorn all find there horses. Gandalf wistles. A white horse appears running over the plains towards them. "That is one of the Mearas, unlesh my eyes are cheated by some spell." Legolas says in awe. The horse stops infront of Gandalf and Gandalf pets his head. "Shawowfax. He is the lord of all the horses and has been my friend trough many dangers." Gandalf explains. With that they all leave for Edoras.
