Meanwhile in Helms Deep all the Rebels along with their leader Boromir were having their meeting.

(Haldir)

At Minas Tirith,

The sections are prepared!

(Isildur)

At Osgiliath,

They're straining at the leash!

(Legolas)

Rebels, students, workers, everyone,

There's a river on the run,

Like the flowing of the tide,

Gondor and Rohan coming to our side!

(Boromir)

This time is near...

So near, it's stirring the blood in their vains!

And yet beware...

Don't let the wine go to your brains!

For the army we fight is a dangerous foe

With the men and the arms that we can match.

Oh, it's easy to sit here and swat 'em like flies,

But the armies of Mordor will be harder to catch.

We need a sign

To rally the people,

To call them to arms,

To bring them in line!

Frodo soon came to meeting that was always held in Helms Deep.

(Boromir)

Frodo, you're late.

(Elrond)

What's wrong today?

You look as if you've seen a ghost.

(Gimli)

Some wine and say what's going on!

(Frodo)

A ghost you say... a ghost maybe.

She was just like a ghost to me.

One minute there, then she was gone!

(Gimli)

I am agog!

I am aghast!

Is Frodo in love at last!

I never seen him 'ooh' and 'aah.'

You talk of battles to be won,

And he come like Don Juan.

It's better than a opera!

(Boromir)

It is time for us all

To decide who we are.

Do we fight for the right

To a night at the opera now?

Have you've asked of yourselves

What's the price you must pay?

Is it simply a game

For rich young boys to play?

The colors of the world

Is changing day by day.

Red-the blood of angry men!

Black-the dark of ages past!

Red-a world about to dawn!

Black-the night that ends at last!

(Frodo)

Had you been there tonight

You might know how it feels

To be struck to the bone

In a moment of breathless delight!

Had you been there tonight

You might also have known

How the world may be changed

In just one burst of light!

And what was right

Seems wrong,

And what was wrong

Seems right.

(Gimli)

Red...

(Frodo)

I feel my soul on fire!

(Gimli)

Black...

(Frodo)

My world if she's not there!

(All)

Red...

(Frodo)

The color of desire!

(All)

Black...

(Frodo)

The color of despair!

(Boromir)

Frodo, you're no longer a child.

I do not doubt you mean it well,

But there is a higher call.

Who cares about your lonely soul?

We strive toward a larger goal.

Our little lives don't count at all!

(All)

Red-the blood of angry men!

Black-the dark of ages past!

Red-a world about to dawn!

Black-the night that ends at last!

(Boromir)

Well, Legolas, do we have all the swords, bows, and axes?

Isilidur, Haldir, our time is running short.

Gimli put that bottle down!

Do we have the swords, bows, and axes we need?

(Gimli)

Give me brandy on my breath

And I'll breathe them all to death!

(Legolas)

At Edoras, they're with us to a man!

(Haldir)

At Minas Tirith, they're tearing up to the stones!

(Isilidur)

Twenty bows, good as new!

Pippin soon ran into the meeting shouting some news that the rebels need to hear.

(Pippin)

Listen!

(Haldir)

Twenty arrows for every man!

(Pippin)

Listen to me!

(Faramir)

Double that at Dunharrow!

(Pippin)

Listen, everybody!

(Madril)

Seven swords in Dunladn!

(Pippin)

King Elendil is dead!

(Boromir)

Elendil is dead.

Elendil! Is death is the hour of fate!

The people's man.

His death is the sign we await!

On his funeral day, they will honor his name!

It's a rallying cry that will reach every ear!

In the death of Elendil we will kindle the flame.

They will see that the day of salvation is near!

The time is here!

Let us welcome it gladly with courage and cheer.

Let us take to the streets with no doubt in our hearts,

But a jubilant shout!

They will come one and all.

They will come when we call!

Everyone cheered at the sound of that. Boromir was proud that the day when the earth will be freed is here.
