Pirate Gold

by Romania Black and Auzzie K

Well, Chapter Four is up!

First of all, let me say a few things:

1.) I am open to all reviews, flames and compliments. However, there is a standard to which I hold to be the LIMITS of a flame, and (cough Cough Mr. Sporker) a few individuals seem that it is necessary to literally cuss an author out in their reviews. Let me assure you that in our humble opinions that is both extremely immature and rude. Please keep in mind that younger people also read this stuff and what is said should be kept in those respects.

2.) Thanks for the reviews posting helpful information to further the story. It was very appreciated! I will try to better spellcheck this one! LOL

3.) Please keep this in mind that this was a story me and my friend Auzzie did over a short period of time. Yes, I am sure that Tolkien would never have a daughter of Rohan named BrandyBuck, or a pirate named Danny in his books, (although he did have a pony named Bill oddly enough) I respect that many believe that we should follow the "Tolkien" way of writing this. Just for further notice, this is a silly story me and Auzzie K wrote and if we intended it to be a serious Tolkien work, we would have made it that way. Sorry if I didn't explain it earlier, but this is just for fun folks. You either have to deal with it and go on reading, or shut the book. It's that simple.

and

4.) In regards to Mr. Silver Sporker's comment on his review, we are most certainly not "Giving it up", and probably will not until I have the entire story posted. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Romania Black and Auzzie K

P.S. I own nothing of the good J.R.R. Tolkein! LOL

"Danny..Danny!" She screamed. She began to cry. Danny ran over to her. He looked down at Theodor. His eyes where open as if staring at them. Brandy's tears dripped onto his face.

"Come on, Brandybuck, there's nothing we can do. He shall rest in peace." Danny reached down and put his hand over Theodor's face, shutting his eyes, so he could no longer look at the world. Brandy got up and wiped her eyes. Danny took off his hat and placed it on Theo's chest. "Rest in peace, my brother."


Brandy let the tears fall into the face of Theodor, who was lying on a slate in front of the white tree. Eldarion, the brother of Theodor and Vardahir, was softly mumbling words in elvish, as Arwen dabbed her eyes, silently crying.

Aragorn laid a hand on his son's chest and softly sang Elvish songs of hope and love as Brandy walked away from the slate.

Danny was staring out into the horizon. He turned and laid a hand on Brandy's shoulder.

"Oh Danny!" Brandy whimpered, but he pressed a hand to her mouth.

"We have to go tonight...It's the only way...to save her." He whispered.

"What?"

"We're going after Vardahir. Berethor's gathering his things. We'll leave tonight."

Brandy smiled at Danny slightly, beneath the tears. "Wonderful...we'll save her!"

"No..." Danny whispered. "I will. And Berethor...not you. You are to stay here."

"NO!" She lowered her voice as Eldarion gazed her direction.

"The Pirates will go after you first if you come. The answer is no." Danny kissed her passionately and turned from her. "Goodbye..my love."

He turned from her and ran down the steps of the tower, to wait a horse before him. She saw Berethor at the ground level as well.

Brandy was about to start crying again when she felt a hand on her shoulder again. This time when she turned, it was Eldarion, tall and strong.

"I have heard what has been said," He said slowly. Brandy looked at him and remembered his ability of Elvish hearing.

"Then you--"

"I will assist you from here," He spoke, "And we will ride together and catch up with him."

"Why are you doing this?"

"You wish to be with your love, Danny, and I with my sister." He said as he led her from the memorial service.

"Does your father suspect this?" Brandy whispered as they reached the castle door.

"No, let us hurry though, before he does." With that he took Brandy's arm and led her away from the funeral. "We must get some dressings on you first." With that he waved Elanor to them and the three went into the castle.

Well, that's that! Tune in for Chapter Five, coming soon! LOL!

Auzzie K and Romania Black bid thee good day!
