Aragorn watched in awe as the White City was flooded with an eerie green light. Goblins and Orcs alike fell at the charge of the army of the dead. Aragorn grabbed a nearby stray steed and mounted him, and rode through the sea of dead towards his great city. Legolas watched as Gimli followed Aragorn on foot stopping occasionally to hack at a dead orc. Legolas switched his eyes to the horizon.-Mordor is restless. The closer the Ring gets the stronger Sauron becomes. Ellie? - His Mind continued to call to her without answer. He arched his back and narrowed his eyes toward Mordor. Frustrated he looked away and rushed to the city walls. His heart worried as his mind called out to Ellie very few minutes.
Kill you!! Kill you kill you nnoow!!!" The creature on Frodo's chest screamed. "It's ours, ours! Gives it to us!!" Suddenly the chain around Frodo's neck broke and the ring came out. Frodo lost his balance and fell into the wall; the creature fell on his back. Silence came over the three beings in Shelob's lair. Ellie was blinded by the darkness. She put her hands on the wall in front of her as she felt the ground and felt cold metal, and picked it up. Suddenly the tunnels filled with the harsh evil black speech of the ring and Frodo heard laughing and joyous shouts under all echoing of the ring. Ellie turned her head, "FRODO BAGGINS!!" she screamed.
"Ellie, over here!!" Frodo gasped.
"Baggins, do not put the ring on." She whispered as she stared slipping into a blind rage and the wish to be the one with the ring.
The creature laying on the ground sat upright. It held open its huge right hand and opened it bulbous eyes. He raised the ring above his head and lowered it onto his index finger. "Mine… the Precious is mine…" He chanted. Elainor fell to her knees as the ring called to her louder, she knew she told Frodo not to put the ring on. The hobbit just did not listen. –Stupid, fat hobbit- her mind screamed, -Its mine!! It should be mine! And who would know? Nobody, they will all be dead. Stupid hobbit, stupid weak hobbit- She stood up and walked silently to the power of the Ring, and could feel the ring bearer's back to her. She lifted Lothamin above her head.
Frodo sat up when he saw the light shine off Lothamin. He watched in horror as Gollum rejoiced unsuspectingly and heard the elf's vicious voice, "Stupid hobbit!! The ring should be mine!!" Before Gollum could scurry away, the elf had already cut both his arms and a leg off. She bent down next to him and started hacking away at the body until screams could not longer be heard. She wiped the blood from her face and suddenly her vision returned. She looked at the scene and turned to see she had slaughtered the creature Gollum. She looked around and saw the hand with the Ring on it. She looked around her and saw the hobbit cowering away from her, holding a sword at her. She wiped away tears from her eyes and looked back at the ring. She stood up and held the sword up, and kicked the hand gently to Frodo. The hobbit took the ring and concealed it immediately in a leather pouch. Ellie looked around and softly spoke, "It is time to leave, time to go to Mordor." Frodo held back before nodding. Elainor put her hood back on her head and walked quickly so that the hobbit had to run to catch up to her. She knew he didn't trust her anymore, but she didn't care. She finally stepped out of thee dark tunnel and looked ahead of her to see the great eye, and behind it Mount Doom. She stood with her head cocked to the side giving the area an evil look and waiting for Frodo to exit. Once he did she turned to look at the hobbit. He had dark circles under his eyes and looked distressed. Her vision clouded again and she turned away from him.
"Master Baggins, this is the last lap. The final run. Whether you trust me or not, the ring must be destroyed," she said slowly and dreamily. She turned and affixed him with her dark eyes; he started, never having seen her eyes that color before.
She led him down the trail and after half a day's walk they ran out of water and food. They walked in silence and Elainor occasionally put her hand on the hobbit's shoulder to steady him. After another few hours she had led them all the way down behind the Tower of Barad- Dur. "We will camp here tonight." She stated as she lead him into a small crevice between the rock and the wall of tower. Frodo stepped in and sat down, and Ellie slid in and stood with her sword in her hand. There was no space for her to sit. She was content with standing, her back to the hobbit.
Legolas stood on the wall of the highest tower in the white city with his brows furrowed and his bow and arrow pointed toward Mordor. Gimli was standing in the door way watching the Elf struggle with a far off enemy. He shook his head and turned around to walk into the main room.
Aragorn, Gandalf, and Eomer sat in deep discussion. Gimli started when he noticed the three tall hooded and cloaked figures standing next to Gandalf. Gimli stepped closer and noticed Haldir talking to them rapidly in elvish. Elrond turned around when he sensed Gimli's eyes. He smiled and his two sons, Elrohir and Elladan turned and bowed to the dwarf. "What are you three doing here?" the dwarf asked in awe.
"They, master dwarf, are here to help us invade Mordor. We are going to divert the eye to the black gates and it will give Frodo the opportunity to end this war." Aragorn looked up at the disturbed elf walking into the room.
"Aragorn, we must hurry. They have entered Mordor. They need cover, they need us." Legolas was pale and his bow was shaking in his hand. He looked at Aragorn and watched his face soften.
"Mae Govannen Legolas." Elrohir said as his flowing hood fell from his head. Legolas glanced at him and his brother. A weak smile came over his face.
"Ah, Mae Govannen, friends" Legolas nodded. He turned towards the stone window, and hopped over it. Haldir was already on the window sill.
"She loves you, brother." Haldir uttered.
"She loves you too Marchwarden." Legolas stated, both looking toward Mordor.
"I have been calling to her all day…"
"As have I… no answer."
"I fear for her, I fear for Frodo.."
"Haldir, Ellie, she is strong… she is the only one who will we can trust."
Haldir jumped off the ledge and looked away. Legolas followed his comrade's footsteps, "Haldir?"
"Mmmhhmm?"
"We have been through much together… Sam, Elainor, and now… the end of Middle Earth as we know it…" Haldir turned so abruptly that Legolas bumped into him.
"Daro! Daro, Legolas Thranduilion. Stop, you mustn't say those things." Haldir put his hand on his friend's shoulder and nodded.
It rained hard that night. Ellie and Frodo trudged in darkness, mud and ash. Ellie kept her face concealed in the darkness of her hood, and on occasion silent tears would fall from her eyes. –Lasto beth nen…Ellie, Lasto beth nen- A soft voice called to her from afar.
-Undomiel? Mornie utile… Mordor has won… It is all over-
The soft voice laughed,-Yese hatho ortho, Ellie. Ni ordi, ni orli- Ellie let tears fall from her dark eyes, as she watched the unsleeping, unforgiving eye circle over the forgotten ash, goblins and urak flinching in its sudden red light. She looked up and saw it, Mount Doom. –This is where it all began, this is where it will all end- her mind raced. –Good- She quicked her pace taking the guiding hand off the hobbit's shoulder, she raced in the shadows. Finally she came to a borrow in the ground, miles off from the mountain, and waited for the hobbit to climb in. She jumped behind him, and sat down.
"This should be safe tonight. Rest, and collect your strength young hobbit." Frodo kept his back to the elf and grunted. Ellie stared at her boots, and pulled her hood off her head. "Frodo," she said as she unpleasantly recalled losing all their supplies in Cirith Ungol, "here, this is all we have as far as food goes. Enjoy it." The hobbit turned around, and gratefully took the lembas from the elf. He broke it in half, and offered the other piece to the elf, which refused it. He offered it again and she took it, broke a small piece off and put it in her mouth, the rest she put in a pouch attached to her leg. "We might not make it through this, but if we do, we'll have food." She joked, Frodo smiled.
Aragorn sat on his white steed, his eyes searching the faces of the scared soldiers mounting and readying to fight in Mordor. Gandalf, Pippen, Merry, Legolas, Gimli, Faramir, and Eomer rode to the front and stood around Aragorn. Elrond, Elrohir, Elladan and Haldir finished checking supplies and rode up to meet the group. Silence fell through the company; Aragorn turned around and led the battalion into war. As the soldiers left the city of Minas Tirith sisters cried, children ran between riders, and mothers threw themselves in the streets, the whole time a façade of roses falling from the sky.
Aragorn set a quick pace, but the elves still rode ahead of him. Soon Elrohir was leading the elves with Haldir, followed by Legolas, Elladan, and Elrond. "Let your arrow fly true archers of the west." Aragorn whispered as the groups divided as Aragorn turned sharply to the left towards the Black Gates.
"Haldir?" Elrohir whispered as the elves flew toward Mordor
"Yes, brother?"
"We wont make it will we?"
"I don't know…I .. hmm…" silence fell on the company again as they drove toward their goal. Elrond sped up and stopped the company when Mordor was 100 leagues away.
"Ion-ens, listen well. Our part is to get into Mordor, and guard the ring bearer's path to the mountain." He huffed, the horses stirred and the elves eyes turned cold and hard as they listened in on the plan, and readied themselves.
