Chapter Twenty: Comfort
Disc: still not king..I mean lotr still not mine.
Orcs swarmed around them as they ran. Rachel was starting to lag and it was then that her friends knew how hurt she really was. Then the orcs scattered, scared off by the Balrog, which was now coming. The fellowship stopped while the girls continued to run. The made it to the gap in the stairs with the men not far behind. Legolas and Gandalf jumped across only to be followed by Boromir who was holding Merry and Pippin. Tricia jumped and was caught by Legolas. Rachel looked over at Holly, who was frozen with fear. She hated heights with a passion. Rachel pushed the blonde who jumped and landed in Boromir's arms. She clung to the man and let out a sob. "Rae I'm gonna kill you!" She cried. The younger girl just smiled and jumped across the gap. Soon the others were across and they made a mad dash for the bridge. Holly paused for a second only to be grabbed by the hand by Aragorn and dragged across the bridge.
"You're such a chicken." Rachel said when Holly joined the rest of them. Holly just sneered at her and watched with the rest as Gandalf fell into the darkness with the fiery creature. Frodo cried out and had to be held back by Boromir. They ran for the outside as the orcs began to follow them.
Holly wanted to leave for Lothlorien as soon as she could. Though almost as soon as she reached the outside she was hugged by Merry. She looked at him and saw tears streaming down his face. The girl knew that she couldn't let him suffer alone. He had lost a dear friend and mentor. She realized this and sat down holding the boy in her arms. She rubbed his back and let him cry freely on her shoulder. Without realizing it she let a few tears fall from her own eyes. She knew that Gandalf would be fine, yet she somehow hated the thought that Merry was in so much pain.
Rachel hugged Pippin as he cried. She thought Merry was supposed to comfort him but saw that Merry had gone to Holly for comfort. She shrugged and soothed the hobbit. She couldn't really cry herself for she knew that Gandalf was just peachy. Though Rachel found that she liked the fact that Pip had come to her, needed her to hold him.
Tricia watched her friends hug the hobbits. She felt rather lonely at that moment. She knew that her friends were not intentionally making her feel this way. She looked at Legolas and saw that he was standing in shock. She walked over to him and lightly touched the elf's arm. He looked at her slowly. She rubbed his arm reassuringly and smiled sadly. "It's okay. It'll be alright." She said. Legolas looked at her and nodded without realizing it. He didn't know why but when she said that he felt that everything would be okay.
Aragorn ordered them to move out. Holly stood and looked at Merry. She ruffled his hair and smiled. He smiled back then jumped as Holly started a mad run for the forest. Rachel and Tricia followed close behind.
