So the fellowship took the path to the mines Gandalf in the lead and Legolas the back, the company moved swiftly and at a steady pace. Once they had reached the mines a magical door appeared on the wall of Moria. Above the archway was some writing but it was in an elvish language which only few can read, it says
style="font-style: italic; font-size: 18pt;""Ennyn Durin Aran Moria. Pedo Mellon a Minno. Im Narvi hain echant. "Which means The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria Speak, friend and enter". "What does that mean?" Sam said "well if you want the doors to open just speak the password" said Gandalf,
so the wizard tried to open the doors, but it didn't work.
So the fellowship stop to have a rest while Gandalf and Frodo were trying to open the grand door. While they wait Merry and Pippin were standing by a murky black lake throwing rocks into the water, Pippin was about to throw again when Aragorn stopped him, "do not disturb the water" spoke the future King of Gondor. Everyone in the fellowship were dreading about going into the mines, Legolas didn't do well in dark places and being underground. Elves liked to be in bright open spaces and not dark closed in ones were the most tiniest light can't get in.
Frodo was looking up at the door reading the writing on the archway when suddenly he said "it's a riddle speak, friend and enter what's the elvish word for friend" "Mellon" said
style="font-size: 18pt;"Gandalf then the doors opened and the fellowship ran through the entrance, "shortly Master Elf your see great halls of the dwarfian kingdom and they call it a mine! a mine!" Said Gimli "this is no mine it's s tomb" spoke Boromir.
Legolas looked at the corpses, pulling an arrow out of a body. "Goblins!" He said, tossing it to the floor. Now what he'd been sensing; it was indeed dangerous to take this route. Boromir yelled everyone to get out of the mine and they quickly obeyed. Legolas saw the waters nears the gate suddenly stired, and he realized that danger was even more imminent outside the mine. Before he had a chance to warn everyone, a massive creature suddenly burst out the water and seized Frodo.
The other Hobbits yelled their friend's name and Sam stabbed at the creatures tentacles, making it drop the hobbit. More tentacles shot out of the water and again grabbed the ringbearer, obviously enticed by the Ring, Legolas aimed his bow and fired at the creature as Aragorn and Boromir launched their own attacks. Aragorn sliced the tentacle holding the hobbit and Frodo fell into the arms of Boromir. "Into the mines!" Gandalf yelled, seeing that they would never get past the creature. "Legolas!" Boromir yelled. "Aim for its eye!"
Legolas did just that as the others ran. The arrow hit its mark and Legolas followed after the Fellowship, as the creature began to fall back into the water. It lasted out a tentacle towards them forcing Legolasvto jump in order to mske it into the mines before the tentacle slammed the door shut. He hit the hard, as the roof-literally- fell down on him...
