Lost Love

Chapter 2

Sauron's New Servant

Hope you liked the first chapter, now here is the second. Constructive criticism is appreciated.


It had taken them two days to reach Minas Tirith, with a lot of fighting on the way, and Aragorn stayed on Eomer's horse the whole time as he had been too weak to fight.

When they had got to Minas Tirith they were all tired so they all went to bed.

All Aragorn was able to say was,

"Thanks guys," he said drearily, before falling into a deep sleep.

In the morning Aragorn had his wounds seen too, and then made his way to the hall to discuss what had happened over breakfast.

Lord Faramir started off by asking the others on their theories of how Arwen was taken under Sauron's power, but unfortunately know one had any ideas.

So Legolas stood up and said that they were open for suggestions that will help them get Arwen back.

So Gimli stood up and shouted,

"We should use the old method!"

"What might that be then Gimli?" asked Eomer in a confused way, raising an eyebrow.

Then Gimli replied back with a hearty smile, "It is when you storm in to Mordor, snatch Arwen and make a quick exit." He finished with a merry laugh, but one grave look from Legolas shut him up. Then Legolas stood up once again and exclaimed furiously,

"That is a ridiculous idea! One of us could get killed, we need to plan it and go in quietly and un detected, then he stopped speaking for a few seconds, and then a smile came to his face and suggested that they go in dressed as Haradrim; but the others weren't sure about it, but Legolas didn't care he liked his idea so he went with it.

So they had spent the whole day sorting out a plan of action, but half way through Lord Faramir had stood up and made it extremely clear that Aragorn was not fit to back in to Mordor, so everyone else agreed.

"You're not in the correct health, my lord Aragorn," he spoke sincerely. "Let us do the fighting, and we'll have Arwen back in no time."

"Besides, you'll only slow us down," chuckled Gimli quietly, and yet another reproving look from Legolas quietened him once again.

Suddenly, the doors opened. All heads turned to face the Lady Eowyn, striding in with a water jug.

"If you intend on storming into Mordor dressed as Haradrim, I suggest you gather more souls to assist you," she declared brightly.

"And I suppose you would be one of them?" Eomer suggested, staring into her eyes.

"Certainly, dear brother!" she replied, smiling mischievously. "Would I have it any other way?"

"Fine you may accompany us, if you take the job of gathering more, as you say, souls," exclaimed Eomer with a friendly smile on his face.

So without a moment to spare, Lady Eowyn turned and made her way towards the door, still holding the water jug in her hands.


About two hours later, Eowyn came back into the hall with about fifty people behind her and had made quite it clear that she was annoyed with them by saying,

"So, all you have done is sit here for two hours doing nothing, while I have been finding people who are brave enough to accompany us in to Mordor?"

"I am sorry to say that you are incorrect my dear Eowyn, we have been sorting out what we need for our disguises," answered Gandalf.

So Eowyn replied back with an embarrassed look on her face, "Well, have you sorted them out then?"

"Yes, yes, they are the armoury," answered Faramir.

So they all got out of their seats and made their way to the armoury to get the armour on, while Aragorn went up to his room to get some rest, as they had been talking all night. They had got it on in no time and were ready to leave, so they went and got their weapons and walked outside to get the horses, so they all mounted their horses and rode out the gate in to the horizon towards Mordor.


They arrived at the black gates before lunch, so they had a quick bite of Elven bread before splitting into groups. Legolas and Gimli were as in charge of fighting, Faramir and Eomer were in charge of going in to rescue Arwen.

So Legolas' and Gimli's group went in first to make sure it was safe, it was all clear so Faramir and Eomer ran ahead with their group. They ran up the many steps to reach Sauron's tower where they thought Arwen would be, but they were highly mistaken, Arwen was know where to be seen, even after thy looked all over Mordor know one was there.

So dreading how they were going to tell Aragorn that Arwen had gone, they made their way back to Minas Tirith.
