So sorry this is late. I've been helping my brother who had brain surgery and with my sister having some problems at her apartment with her friends. I hope you can all forgive me and I also hope you enjoy this.
Chapter 37
Second Attack/Death of Pippin
Everyone was talking all at once. One of them was about arrows. Mordor had a load of arrows. Orcs were at their ready for the kill of the rebels of Helms Deep. Boromir started to talk about the report and how they were doing.
(Boromir)
How do we stand, Isildur?
Make your report.
(Isildur)
We've bows enough
But arrows short.
(Frodo)
I will go into the streets
There are bodies all around
Arrows to be had
Lots of quivers to be found!
(Boromir)
I won't let you go
It's too much of a chance.
(Aragorn)
Let me go
He's no more than a boy
I am old
I have nothing to fear.
(Pippin)
You need somebody quicker
And I volunteer!
Pippin climbed down over the wall of Helms Deep so he can grab arrows for the rebels.
(Madril)
Come back Pippin, don't you dare!
(Elrond)
Someone pull him back up at once!
(Pippin)
Look at me, I'm almost there!
When Pippin was on the ground on the other side of Helms Deep, he began collecting arrows while singing a song. All while arrows were flying toward him.
(Pippin)
And Little People know,
When Little People fight,
We may look easy pickings
But we've got some bite!
So never kick a dog
Because he's just a pup
An arrow flew across the field and hit Pippin. One of Orcs of Mordor was getting ready to fire another arrow at him.
(Pippin)
We'll fight like twenty armies
And we won't give up.
Soon another arrow flew across the field and hit Pippin. Everyone on the other side of the wall of Helms Deep were calling his name and telling him to get back inside Helms Deep where he should be. In pain, Pippin threw the arrows high over the wall and into Helms Deep.
(Pippin)
So you better run for cover
When the pup grows-
One it took to fly across the field to hit Pippin. When Pippin hit the ground said or sang no more. Then Legolas ran through the gate that opens for people to come into Helms Deep took Pippin into his arms and ran back inside. All he did while was running in and out was crying. One Orc came to stand with one last warning for them all.
This was very hard to write. I didn't want to kill Pippin like Gavroche died in Les Miserables book and musical, But I had to. I hoped you all enjoyed. Again I'm so sorry this chapter is late.
