Chapter 10: Fangorn Forest, Ent - friendly
The days grew shorter and the nights grew colder, and Frodo and Mystic where becoming weary as they treacked closer and closer to Mordor. Mystic didn't ask for stories much anymore and during the nights, they kept there distance. Edoras had helped them regain strength but it had also created a awkward aurora between the 2 of them. 4 days after leaving Edoras, they reached Fangorn Forest. At first Mystic was a little scared, but after a minute or two they moved in.
" Frodo, how will we tell what's alive and what's not?" Mystic asked, looking wearily up at a old sycamore tree.
" Don't worry Mystic, Merry and Pippin said the ents can be quite friendly!." Frodo replied. He spoke too soon, for at that moment a branch swung down and grabbed the two of them. Mystic let out a piercing scream. They where both looking into the eyes of an ugly dark casia tree. It smiled at them, well at least it looked that way.
" Hello, what are you?" He asked very slowly but cheerfully. Mystic looked terrified but Frodo was used to strange things like this.
" Where hobbits." He said. The ent smiled.
" You are? Like the great Meriadoc and Pergin, the awakers of the ents?" He asked. Frodo laughed.
" Yes, I'm good friends with them back home." The ent let out what sounded like a laugh.
" Oh, this is so cool! My name is Dain,." He said. mystic seemed a little less perturbed. Frodo had an idea as he looked over at mystic, who seemed very emotionally tired.
" Dain, would you mind taking us through the forest." He asked in a very kind voice.
" I'd be honored, where are you heading." He asked. Frodo paused.
" To Lothlorien for now." He said as Dain started walking. He was very interested in there travels.
" Where to after that?" he asked. Frodo paused.
" Well we'll go down the Anduin, then to the dead Marshes, then to the Drimell stair and the... to MT. Doom." he said. He stopped talking, he hadn't realized how close they where getting. Mystic looked sort of dazed, watching the trees go bye and talking to herself.
" Our you the two I heard about, the ones with Sauron's power?" He asked in astonishment. Frodo wasn't sure who to trust, this could be a spy for Sauron.
' We have something to do with that." He said.
" It seems as though all the little people get the adventures!" He said. Frodo laughed but wished it weren't true. They walked along through the night and at morning stopped for a breather. Frodo's legs couldn't support him well after the long break and were quite tipsy. By 12 o'clock they reached the outskirts of the forest. Dain set them down.
" It was nice to meet you... oh I haven't got your name." He said. Frodo paused
" My name is Mr. Underhill and this is Sammy." He said. The ent nodded.
" Nice to meet you." he said and trampled off. Hey, Frodo thought, It worked in Bree last time!
