"I am a wraith
darkness falls
I scream
ride my steed
to find the One Ring.
Our Master waits
his eye wreathed in flame
we scream together
ride we must
for the One Ring calls to us.
Darkness wanes
we struggle on
in hopes of fulfilling it
our mission for the ring
onward we ride.
The Halflings have the ring
one has felt our icy blade
he will become one of us
though the poison may be stopped
we shall prevail over him.
The Darkness calls
we ride
searching for the bearer
together my friends
we will triumph.
Over hills
through the mountains
over the forest
along the river
we will follow.
The ring we will have
we will give it to our Master
ride we must
onward we go
for we will triumph.
The light of day comes
we will not rest
together we shall move on
the ring is ever closer
we shall have victory.
I see the halflings
they are in a company of nine
they don't outrank us
they even us
we shall follow nonetheless.
The wizard has fallen
for a demon has taken him
woe be to his fall
let us make haste
triumph will be ours.
The company heads for the trees
we ride in an attempt to head them off
our blades glisten with anxiety
the company sees us
our battle begins.
One of our number has fallen
another has gotten the bearer
he rides to Mordor
the rest of us fight
we distract the company.
*~*-*~*
I ride to Mordor
the halfling struggles
I have no choice for I slow my steed
one hand holding the halfling
I stab him with my blade.
The halfling cries out
poison reactivates and continues
it courses through his veins
his eye's glass over
he breaths his last breath.
I continue the ride to Mordor
I have reached the brown lands
it is a smooth ride from here
sounds of hooves approach fast behind me
the company has slain my friends.
I must ride on
to Mordor
I urge my horse to run faster
the company is gaining
the gate to Mordor is open.
Run like the wind my steed
my horse complies
sitting low I hold onto the halfling
he is stirring
he is startled to see me.
He looks behind me
who are those people he asks
I answer him
they are hunters trying to kill us
we must make haste to Mordor.
He only nods
he holds onto me for dear life
the halfling is a wraith now
he will only listen to Sauron
or a high commanding wraith.
Run! we are almost there
the gates are closing
Run! we must make the gates before it closes
the halfling holds on
we rush through the gates as they close.
Orcs notch arrows to bows
arrows fly and the halfling cries
why do you cry I ask
he doesn't answer at first
my friends! how could you?.
They would have killed you
you are a wraith now, Frodo Baggins
Noo! he yells but places his face in his hands
he cries but I feel his pain
for we are not at all like cruel heartless creatures.
Do not cry I say to the halfling
he shakes his head
you won't have to be alone
my company was killed by your friends
you will become one of my company.
Getting off the horse while pulling the halfling with me
Noo! I don't want to be a wraith
I sigh with annoyance
Come for your new master awaits
He awaits to have his ring back.
No! I can't do it
he takes out the ring
looking at it his expression changes
I will do it
Yes, Master must have his ring.
The halfling scares me
has he lost his mind
he reminds me of Gollum
pity we had to let it go
I enjoyed his screams.

Darkness covered the land once more
Lord Sauron came again to power
palaces and villages fell
people suffered and died
for darkness waxes choking the land."
