1. Imrahil did not know what to think of their explanation of what a plane was. "Apparently you are not from Middle Earth?"
Sayid exchanged a worried glance with Kate. "We are all from different places but I am from the Middle East."
Imrahil pondered over this new information. "Middle East? You are an Easterling then?"
"I am Iraqi," Sayid said hoping to clear up the confusion. "I have never been called an Easterling before."
Imrahil looked at the others. "Lady Shannon, are you also an Iraqi?"
Shannon almost choked on her wine and sent the man an annoyed look. "No of course not. Do I look like an Iraqi?"
Imrahil did not know how to answer her. "None of you look like you belong here in Middle Earth to be honest with you."
"Look Mr. Imrahil," Sawyer said as he stood up to get everyone's attention. "We only got one Iraqi present and that is Mr. Osama over there." He pointed to Sayid and put a smirk on his face. He never passed up a chance to insult the foreigner. He just did not like him. "The rest of us here are Americans and we need to get back to good ole U. S. of A."
"This USA is not on any map I have ever seen," Imrahil said. "I have several maps if you'd care to point out your homeland." Imrahil motioned for one of his men to bring in some maps.
A few moments later, the maps were spread out on the table and Sawyer, Kate, and Michael were gathered around them. "Mordor?" Kate said. "Never heard of it."
"I've never heard of any of these places. Rohan, Mirkwood, Shire?" Michael was used to looking at maps. They were just like blueprints to him and he had never found a blueprint he could not read. Yet this map puzzled him. "What country is this map of?"
"It is a map of Middle Earth," Imrahil answered.
Sawyer looked at the map and then around the room before proudly proclaiming, "I don't think we's in Kansas anymore Freckles."
"Something doesn't seem right," Hurley said as he watched the two sets of boats approaching from different directions. He felt a wave of fear wash over him but he did not know why. "Maybe we should hide guys."
"Hide? Are you crazy? It is a rescue party." Claire waved her hands high overhead, hoping to help the rescue team see them.
Jack looked from one sets of boats to the other. He could not make out anyone particular in them as they were still too far from shore but he too felt something was wrong. He put his hand on Claire's arm. "Let's move back just a little towards the trees."
Claire started to protest as her baby began kicking furiously, as if it did not want to go into the jungle. But she said nothing as Jack and Hurley pulled her along with them.
Faramir and his men had spotted the Orcs awhile back. They had not been in range of arrows or they would have begun picking them off. apparently it was not what the Orcs had in mind. They had not made any motion to come closer or to fight them. They seemed intent on reaching land. Faramir did not know what the Orcs wanted with the people but it could not be anything good. "Row faster," he told his men. They had to reach the beach and the people before the Orcs did.
Jin pulled Sun closer to him. He too was feeling very uneasy about their rescue. He looked at the others backing up to the jungle and did the same. The boats were coming closer. It looked like the one set from the right would reach them first.
Locke shook his head as he saw for the first time the people, or things rather, in the boats. "Run into the jungle!" He yelled "Quickly!"
The first arrow came raining onto the beach as the Orcs were finally within shooting range. "Do not hit the girl," Gothmog growled. "We need her alive. Kill the others."
The boats hit the beach and the Orcs began running towards the people. Claire screamed as she saw them and with Jack and Hurley's help, she was ushered into the jungle. "What are they?" she cried out as a pain shot through her stomach. She ignored it and kept running.
Jin did not know what was going on. The arrows were coming at them and he knew he needed to protect Sun. He tried to yell at the invaders but they did not understand him. Sun grabbed her husbands hand and tried to pull him into the jungle but she was too late. An arrow pierced his chest and with one last breath, he told her he was sorry. "No!" Sun screamed but she had no time to grieve for him. She ran. With tears in her eyes she ran blindly into the jungle hoping to catch up with the others and find a place to hide from the invaders.
Faramir was frantic. He knew the Orcs had reached shore first. "Row faster," he ordered as he pulled out his bow and took aim. He let an arrow loose and managed to shoot the Orc that was chasing after a woman. Their boat hit shore and Faramir and his men began fighting the Orcs.
"Over here," Locke said as he motioned to Jack and the others. "We need to hide in the trees."
"Claire can't climb a tree," Jack said.
"She will have to,"Locke replied as he climbed up and reached down for the pregnant woman's hand. With Jack and Hurley pushing her up, and Locke pulling from above, they managed to get Claire situated in the top of one of the big trees.
Jack looked at Hurley. "You next."
Hurley laughed, "Yeah right." He was going to protest more but he heard the screams and shouts on the beach. "Me next," he said as he was helped by Jack and Locke.
They got him up into the tree, but he was afraid to move as each time he did, he could hear branches breaking under his weight.
Jack climbed up and sat next to Claire. He put his finger to his mouth as they heard something coming towards them. Locke gripped his knife in his hand. If they were attacked, he doubted he could save everyone but he'd die trying.
Sun ran screaming as one of the creatures grabbed her. She struggled against it, horrified at what it would do to her. "Let me go!" she yelled as she beat her small fists upon it's rough skin.
"Release the lady!" Faramir yelled as he held his sword to the Orc's back. The Orc growled and pushed Sun down as he turned to fight with the man.
Sun scooted back out of the way, afraid to even get up and run. Being lost and alone in the woods was just as frightening to her as the monsters.
Faramir managed to kill the Orc and he held out his hand to the lady. "Are you alright my Lady?"
Sun nodded her head and took his hand. "Where are the others?" he asked her.
"I do not know."
"Come with me then," he said as he took her hand and led her back to where the boats were docked. "Watch over her. I am going after the others." He left her with two of his men who were guarding the boats and ran off into the jungle.
Locke watched as the creature walked below them. He saw it smelling the air and he gripped his knife tightly in his hand. He could see Claire trembling from fright as he knew she could not stay up in the tree much longer.
He glanced at Hurley who was also shaking. He heard a branch break under the heavy man and knew that he had to act now. There was only one creature that he could see, but that did not mean that there were not others in the area. "I'm going down," he whispered to Jack. Jack wanted to tell him not to, but he heard the branches breaking under Hurley.
Locke took a deep breath and jumped down, landing on the Orc beneath him. He struck out with his knife, slashing the creature's back and neck. With a growl, the Orc threw him off and to the ground. Locke found his feet quickly, knowing that if he stayed on the ground, it would be his end.
"Come on," he said as he locked eyes with the monster. The Orc growled and looked around for its discarded sword. It was too far away so he could not go for it. He would have to kill the man with his hands. He lunged for him, and Locke stepped to the side, bringing his knife down into the side of the Orc and slicing him deeply. The Orc dropped and Locke took the opportunity to stab him over and over again.
Just as he was getting to his feet, a growl erupted as another one of the creatures walked into the open space. A large snap of branches was heard and Hurley came falling from the tree top and landed right on the Orc, killing him. "Good job," Locke said as Hurley looked at the disgusting thing under him.
Jack climbed down, helping Claire get down as well. That was when Faramir found them. "Are you all alright?" he asked as he looked at the strangers. his eyes took in the lady with child. "Hurry, we must make it to the boats before the other Orcs find us."
"Orcs?" Locke asked, not liking the sound of the word. Faramir nodded.
"What of the other people?" Jack asked. He knew they had all scattered when the monsters boats had docked. "We can't leave anyone here."
"My men are out gathering them, now hurry."
They followed Faramir back to the beach. The white sand was littered with bodies of Orcs and people as well. Jack grimaced as he saw the body of Jin and several others from the plane. Faramir took count of his men and then looked at Locke. "This is all that could be found alive. We must make haste and return to Dol Amroth at once."
The men and women were put into the boats and were off on their way to safety, or so they hoped...
