Wasn't going to post this until tomorrow but Saphiralovestolkien ask for this so by their command here is the next chapter

After 2 hours of travelling to this so-called mine of Moria, Aragorn was beginning to think that the old man was either crazy or a liar. Until they suddenly stopped

"Here we are!" The old man told them as he set a gold Medallion on the ground. It flew over are heads as a giant dwarfs head appeared.

"Who disturbs my slumber?" The Dwarf roared.

"It is I, Aragorn son of Arathorn "He said with confidence as the old man told him to do.

"Proceed. Touch nothing but the Ring." He warned. The cave opens up with a roar, and a staircase appears in front of the Man and Elf.

"Remember, boys-first fetch me the lamp, and then you shall have your reward." The old man reminded them.

"'Come on, Mellon" Aragorn said as they began to descend the staircase. Reached the bottom, they enter a golden chamber filled with treasures.

"Would you look at that?" Aragorn couldn't believe his eyes.

"Just a handful of this stuff would make us richer than my Father!" Legolas said as he walked to one of the over flowing mountain of treasure.

"Legolas" Aragorn yelled before he got close enough to it. "Don't...touch...anything! We got to find that Ring." making there way through the room a carpet rises off the floor and begins following them, Legolas froze.

"I have the feeling that we're being followed." he told Aragorn in a low voice. Looking around and saw nothing but a brightly colour rug on the floor and mountains of treasure.

"You're just being paranoid." And kept walking

The carpet starts to follow again, after a few minutes, Legolas froze again.

"Aragorn I am not! Look the carpet just moved!" Once again the man looked and it was still flat on the floor. He turned around and started walking again.

"Legolas, will you knock it off? You are going crazy! Rugs don't move!" He shouted at him from over his shoulder. Legolas pulled on Aragorn jacket for him to turn around. In doing so he could not believe what his eyes was seeing. "A magic carpet!" Legolas started to slowly back away.

"Keep that thing away from me." Legolas warned in a serious tone.

"Relax Mellon; He is not going to bite you." Aragorn chuckled at him, and then realized something, "Maybe you can help us." He told the carpet. "You see, we're trying to find this ring." the carpet storms away. "I think he knows where it is." Aragorn said pulled on Legolas's arm.

"I can't believe this we are following a rug though a mine. Yes we have gone crazy." Legolas muttered to himself as they pass through a long cave, until emerge in a giant underground cavern. In the centre of the room is a tall pillar, with a staircase going up it, it was surrounded by water with unevenly placed stones forming a bridge. At the top of the pillar is a beam of light.

"Wait here." Aragorn told them.

"No problem." Legolas muttered. Carpet lay on the floor and the elf was trying to get as far away as possible from him. Aragorn laughed to himself as he crossed the stone bridge carefully. He and Legolas had faced so many terrible things in there lives and he was scared of a flying carpet.

"Must have finally cracked." Aragorn whispered as he started to climb the stairs and began to think about what the old man would want with this ring. Finally reaching it and he was somewhat disappointed as he was expecting something cool. But it was an old dusty ring. Not that special. "This is it? This is what we came all the way down here t-" Aragorn looked to see Legolas slowly back into a mountain of treasure and it clasped on him. "Legolas! No! We weren't supposed to touch any thing!"

"Infidels!" The mountain roared angrily.

"Uh oh!" Legolas said quickly said getting up.

"You have touched the forbidden treasure." Suddenly all the treasure starts to melt. "Now you will never again see the light of day!" Aragorn quickly put the ring in his pocket and raced down the steps, but they flatten into a ramp, he tried to ski down until flying into the air. The water has turned into lava. I was falling toward it, when all of a sudden Carpet appeared and caught me. Legolas is standing on one of the rocks of the bridge. He looks left and right and sees rocks exploding into lava. But Carpet raced over and Aragorn grabbed him, just as the last rock exploded.

"Whoa! Carpet, let's move!" He shouted racing back through the caves dodging walls and falling debris.

"Aragorn!" yelled Legolas.

"Legolas, this is no time to panic!" He yelled back. Who pointed ahead of them, flying into a wall, "Start panicking" Carpet goes into a nosedive, then through another cave. Finally, emerging through the internal entrance while the cave begins to growl and close. They were almost to the top when a boulder drops on carpet, sending him to the floor. Aragorn grabbed onto the rock wall and held on Legolas only a few feet bellow me in the same position. I looked up and saw the old man at the top, within reach. "Help me out!" he yelled to him.

"Throw me the Ring!" he yelled back.

"I can't hold on! Give me your hand!" he told him again while loosing my grip.

"First give me the Ring!" pulling it out of his pocket and handed it to him.

"Ha ha ha ha! Yes! At last! Ha ha ha ha!" Legolas climbed up and was helping Aragorn up when the old man punched the elf right in the head sending him crashing into a wall. The old man grabbed Aragorn wrists.

"What are you doing?" He asked him in a betrayed voice.

"Giving you your reward." he was not an old man. But before Aragorn could find out who it was, he reaches behind him. "Your eternal reward." He sneered as he pulls out a crooked dagger and is about to stab Aragorn when Legolas gets up and punches him in the gut. He let go of Aragorn wrists and his grip failed and fell off the rock wall. The man pushes Legolas and he also starts to fall, Dwarf roars one final time, then sinks back into the mountain. Saruman pulls off his disguise.

"Heh heh heh! It's mine. It's all mine! I where is it? No. NO!" He yells unable to find it in his pocket
