Harry and Ron quickly stepped through the stone doorway and into the world outside quickly followed by Hermione. They could see the fiery battle going on below them and decided that they needed to help. Gandalf was pulling his share but the ware was definitely showing in this old wizened man.
"Harry do you remember the glacius charm we learned in Flitwick's class last Monday?" asked Hermione.
"Yes how could I forget Ron hitting me with it in the back of the head after class? I couldn't feel my face for the rest of the day." replied Harry.
Hermione let out a stiffed chuckle then said,"We need to aim that straight at the monster's chest."
The three climbed down the ten feet to the battle and began hurling glacius charms at the Balrog from behind a boulder that seemed as though it was about to melt from the extreme heat. The trio was starting to feel the heat but the cooling charm was working quite effectively. The charm was having no effect on the Balrog and Gandalf began to stumble. Harry was trying anything he could think of to stop this enormous beast of fire. Screams of expelliarmus, stupefy, and even though Harry was sure it wouldn't work, expecto patronum. The three teenagers were getting very exhausted from all the useless work they were doing.
Gandalf was getting slashed with the Balrog's whip of fire. His grey robes suddenly went ablaze and he began to fall to the ground. It seemed like it took him forever to fall. When he finally hit the ground a great pulse of energy was exerted from his body. Harry was able to cast a ward around Gandalf so he would not have to face the recoil. Harry was so concentrated on Gandalf's body that he did not even notice the Balrog fall to the ground, its flame extinguished. Hermione saw this and immediately collapsed; satisfied that there job was done here. Harry and Ron just stood there in awe of the two great bodies lying in front of them. For Harry there were three. Harry immediately ran over to Gandalf to find that he was still alive but just unconscious muttering in his deep sleep.
"He's alright Ron, how's Hermione?" asked Harry sounding very concerned for the health of his girlfriend and the great wizard.
"She'll be alright; she's just collapsed from exhaustion. How's Gandalf?"
"I really don't know. He's just laying there muttering things in his sleep. The only words I could make out were Manwe and Orome. I have no clue what they mean. Do you?"
"Not a clue. Wait a second why don't we try to enervate them?"
Ron walked over to Gandalf and muttered enervate. Gandalf did not stir. Harry did the same for Hermione and she immediately woke up, dazed.
"Harry, is that you?"
"Yes 'Mione. I'm right here."
"Did we just do what I think we did?"
"If you mean defeating the Balrog at the Battle of the Peak, then yes."
"Wow!" exclaimed Hermione still lying on her back.
"Do you think u can stand?" asked Harry.
"Yeah, I'll be fine."
Hermione stood up. The three immediately felt a voice calling them then a pulling force in their stomachs. Harry tried to resist but it was useless, he was already gone. He fell to the ground at his new destination with a loud crunch. He had landed on top of Ron. Harry got up as soon as he could to find Hermione already standing.
"Harry, where are we?"
"I don't know, just stay close."
Just then a short figure clad in white flowing robes came in to the tall gold chamber. He was much taller than Harry and reminded him of a skinny Hagrid. The man immediately spoke when he was in hearing range. He kept talking while he walked towards them.
"Enter the Halls of Manwe. You have been expected here for some time. It is a pleasure to finally meet you. O great ones."
Harry didn't like the fact that even in this world he was already famous for nothing. The mysterious being spoke again.
"Manwe awaits your arrival in the great chamber." He pointed to a giant gold door on the other side of the chamber.
The three looked at each other, hesitated then slowly stepped forward. Harry passed the before now unperceivable person and saw that he was indeed an elf. Harry had no clue just what elf he was. He was an elf of old, one of the first to pass through middle earth and into the halls of Arda, many had heard his name and of his greatness but he has not been seen in middle earth for many ages. His name was Cirdan, the shipwright, friend of Gandalf. (A/N Theres more to him but u might find out.)
The group continued to walk past the aged elf and stepped up to the magnificent golden doors lined with three great jewels. Harry was in awe of these magnificent crystals and so were the others. Hermione knew what these were and bowed down to them. Harry saw that she had stopped and went back to her.
"Hermione are you okay."
She was absolutely speechless. The only words she could say were, "The Three Jewels"
"What…Hermione we have to go."
"I know we do. But you don't understand what these are. They are…" As she said that Harry and her were pushed into the next room by Cirdan.
"One must not linger beneath the jewels. They are for the Chosen Ones only; no mortal has ever touched them. For those are the Silmaril."
"But weren't they lost?" challenged Hermione.
"Just stories my dear lady, stories to preserve the truth. Now you must enter the Halls of Arda."
The three walked down the hallway without stopping. They saw Ron waiting for them there. He had figured it was just another one of their snogging sessions and didn't ask anything. They all walked through the final door to be greeted by a blast of bright white light. The light went away as fast as it came and Harry was temporarily blinded.
When his vision returned he saw sixteen tall figures bowing down to him. Included in this group were Gandalf and Cirdan. He did not know who the other fourteen were but Harry could sense their great power. He looked to his left and saw Ron and Hermione just gaining their vision. Harry heard Hermione gasp and fainted immediately. She knew who these people/things were.
