Heres the next chapter the escape from the pits of Isengard and into middle earth where adventures await lets continue….

Maugoth peered out of his chamber and signalled the all clear for Nurzum, both were dressed in full armour and Nurzum wearing Maugoth's helmet after a small argument in which he gave up and let the big uruk wear it.

"Now listen it is currently midnight, there wont be many patrols about, but if they inquire we are going to get our weapons fixed, and the moment we get Emlyn out of her cell, we must make for the south exit from the external pits."

Maugoth suddenly realised that everything he had just said had not made any sense to Nurzum so he sighed and said. "Me and you, save Emlyn from bad uruks and run out south cave."

Nurzum gave a nod of understanding, before they both stood up and walked towards the prison cells, Maugoth was relieved there was only one guard patrolling and no screaming from the prisoners, they were all sleeping, Maugoth looked at the guard, it was just a simple orc guard nothing Maugoth hadn't killed and eaten before so he walked gingerly up to the guard.

"Hey orc!"

The orc just grunted as he turned to be punched in the face by Maugoth, Nurzum winced at a loud crunch and a thud as the orc fell over, probably dead. Maugoth then flexed his hand and pointed to Nurzum.

"Quickly, begin to pick him up, I will get his keys."

Nurzum obeyed and grabbed the orcs legs as Maugoth quickly ripped the cell keys from the orcs belt, Maugoth then went to Emlyns cell and enjoyed her embrace as Nurzum threw the body into a nearby forge fire.

"I told you I'd be back for you Emlyn."

Emlyn kissed his cheek. "I didn't doubt you for a second, is this your new friend?" She said this pointing out Nurzum.

"Yes Emlyn this is Nurzum, be sure to use small words, he's as thick as his armour."

Emlyn bowed. "Pleasure, now how are we getting out of here?"

"Well the nearest exit out of the pits and into fangorn is the south put exit, there wont be any guards but just in case." Maugoth handed Emlyn a sword and a dagger.

The two uruks and one woman were quickly making their way to the south exit, Maugoth began to feel like they were nearly free from this decrepit place, of course though Isengard was never the easier place to get in and out of unless you were an orc, so of course at least three pit guards were slain in order to through some gates.

The trio eventually got the south of the pits, Maugoth quickly ordered Nurzum and Emlyn to crouch down as two Uruk guards walked by, then Maugoth signalled the all clear, this was it they were nearly free as they ran quickly up the exit tunnel.

The run was quickly cut short by Nurzum being hit by a shield that sprung out in front of him, and a familiar uruk stepped out and Nurzum and Maugoth noticed it was Rutruhk with a furious look on his face and a stump where his hand used to be.

The larger crippled uruk stood over the moaning Nurzum and laughed. "You big stupid bastard! You took my hand, so now Im gonna take yours."

"Let him go!" Roared Maugoth as he tackled Rutruhk and sent him into the side of the tunnel, the snarling uruk stood up and brandished his sword, Maugoth bared his teeth and drew his sword.

"This time Rutruhk, Im not letting you get away, were escaping and you will meet the end of my sword."

Rutrukh just smirked as he lunged his crude blade towards Maugoths stomach narrowly missing and lodging itself into the tunnel wall, the uruk tried to free his blade but his struggle was cut short as he felt a sharp pain in his back, as Rutrukh dropped to his knees, he looked frantically around as he felt the pain get worse, he could clearly see Maugoth beaming in front of him and Nurzum groaning and standing up, but where was this pain coming from, he felt the breath of a woman on his neck as he saw the end of a shape dagger come out of his chest, Rutrukh gasped as he started to taste his own blood and his vision fading, he dropped to his side and drew he last breath as he saw Emlyn wipe her dagger clean, then he passed away.

Maugoth gave Emlyn an impressed look. "Well done milady."

"Nothing to it, but I think we might have some more unwanted company pretty soon, so we had better clear the rest of this tunnel and get a good distance away.

Maugoth nodded and turned to Nurzum. "You ok there?"

"Nurzum fine, is bad uruk dead?"

Emlyn nodded. "Were free from his evil, now come on we have to get out."

The trio quickly began to run again, they were nearly out of the tunnel as they could see the night sky ahead and their pace quickened, then Maugoth froze as he could hear a warning horn echoing through the pits of Isengard, they hadn't much time to escape.

"Quickly!" Yelled Maugoth. "We must get out now!"

Soon they darted out into the open world and noticed how far from the main wall they were, they could still hear the horns though.

"Quickly keep running we cant stop yet we must get into fangorn to ensure our safety, the uruks and wargs wont follow us that far!"

Maugoth and Nurzum could've ran for ages, but Emlyn couldn't run any more and nearly collapsed if it were not for Maugoth quickly hoisting her over his shoulder and continued the run towards fangorn, they could hear the howls of wargs and ran even faster as the treeline of fangorn came into view, Maugoth quickly looked over his shoulder to see the tower of Isengard getting smaller and shadows of warg riders getting closer, they darted into the treelike.

"We are not safe yet, quickly climb the tree's conceal yourself in the branches."

Nurzum climbed a large tree and used his dark skin to blend, Maugoth did the same and huddle with Emlyn to keep her from being seen, they kept as quiet as they could as they could hear the patter of wargs as their riders got off and looked around.

"Bastards! No one gets away from us! No one!"

"Calm down Grozm, the nets will surely crush them if they remain here."

"Aye we can just tell Saruman that the nets got em."

"Good because we will be fed to the uruk brutes if we go back there with nothing to say."

The orc swirly climbed back onto his warg. "Don't bloody remind me, ok lads back to camp!"

The all waited until the sound of roaring wargs was only in the distance before climbing out of the trees and catching their breath.

Nurzum looked around the forest, he didn't like it much, it was dark and scary and he could've sworn that the tree he was hiding in moved slightly, he turned to see how Maugoth was doing and saw him and Emlyn hugging and kissing each other, Nurzum just rolled his eyes and turned his head and waited, then a look of excitement appeared on his face.

"Hang on, we escaped, we free!"

Emlyn raised her hand. "Nurzum not so loud, the orcs would've been merciless, but we must be careful around the nets."

Nurzum turned his head in confusion. "Ent?"

Maugoth decided to explain. "An ent is a tree person, think of any tree but walking and talking."

Nurzum went deep into thought then nodded. "I get it now."

Emlyn then sat down and stretched. "Now what?"

Maugoth sat down too, now what? he thought to himself. "Well if we run into any whiteskins, Emlyn you will have to explain me and Nurzum and extra explaining about him."

Maugoth pointed to Nurzum and Emlyn laughed at seeing the uruk looking at a night owl with wide eyes and a turned head, he looked like he was in some sort of trance, then the owl screeched and Nurzum flinched which made Emlyn laugh even more.

"He is a funny one isn't he?"

Maugoth ran his fingers down the back of his neck. "You have no idea."

"So what exactly is up with Nurzum?"

"Thats just it, he's simple, he was probably going to end up a beserker, but he doesn't have any malice, anger or vengeance he doesn't even know who he follows or what side he is on, he thinks I am his damn leader."

"He's close to adorable, thats the first uruk Ive seen besides you that doesn't have a constant look of anger on his face."

Maugoth then leaned towards Emlyn letting her rest her head on his shoulder. "Be honest Emlyn, the orcs in the cells didn't harm you did they, I paid em not to do anything to you."

Emlyn just shook her head. "No they left me alone, I still had to listen to the screaming of other prisoners."

Maugoth grunted. "It aint something you get used to."

The pair then looked at Nurzum and chuckled to see him eyeing up Maugoths helmet as if it was made of gold.

"Im also glad Rutruhk's dead, he would've been after us had we let him live."

Emlyn shuddered, she had seen that uruks behaviour from her cell, had it not been for Maugoths bribes to the guards Rutruhk probably wouldve been in there unlacing his breeches like he did with all the other prisoners.

"Emlyn I am proud of you for finally sorting out that bastard once and for all, he shan't do harm ever again."

"It still felt wrong to kill him, even if he was evil, I mean when me and you bonded, before you were a ruthless captain."

Maugoth smirked. "Well I was still planning on escaping regardless, you just became of importance as my plans became easier to make."

Emlyn huddled up the uruk. "Im glad you freed me from that place, both of us can be free, and of course Nurzum."

Oddly enough Nurzum had dropped the helmet and gone back to looking at the owl with wide eyes, Emlyn couldn't deny it, this uruk was funny, she could see no malice or hatred in Nurzum just some childlike behaviour like a small boy learning to speak.

Maugoth sighed again and shook his head. "Technically he is only young, he was spawned so early, but he is my burden as are you, so his safety rests with me, but where are we to go now?"

Emlyn thought about this. "The nearest stronghold of the free peoples is Edoras in Rohan."

Maugoth cringed at the thought but sucked it up. "I suppose we have no other choice."

Then all of a sudden Emlyn could hear an orc yelling in the distance.

"Im gonna rip out your filthy little innards!"

Maugoth stood straight up and ran in the direction of the orc voice, Emlyn and Nurzum quickly followed, weapons drawn.

Maugoth ran faster he could still hear the orc yelling threats.

"Come ere!"

Maugoth then broke through some bushes and found a scrawny orc with a large blade cornering two terrified hobbits, Nurzum stood in confusion and Emlyn looked ready to fight.
