One of the Fallen: Part 2

by Winnie1991

This is Part 2 of my story One of the Fallen. In this section we see Adonnenniel's travels through Fangorn Forest, and some tough decisions must be made. With new friends and return of old friends, what trouble can this reborn Elf get up too this time?

10. Day 145

Day 145: March 5:

We made it to Isengard. Leaving the safety of the trees, we slowly made our way to the gates. Treebeard, leading the battle, tore down the imposing metal gates standing in our way. Looking around I noticed there were very few Orcs. This could only be good for us, but meant the majority of the Orcs were somewhere else; I pray to the Valar the rest of the Fellowship stays safe.

I pulled my twin swords from their sheaths and began cutting down Orcs. From the safety of Treebeards arms, Merry and Pippin helped guide me to my enemy. I saw Saruman barely miss getting caught in Quickbeam, an Ent's, arms. He made it to the safety of his tower, damn; that would make killing him tricky.

Not long after, pillars of fire began shooting from the ground; I, myself, just barely missed being scorched by one. Ents and Huorns alike began getting burned. Treebeard bellowed out above me to make our way to the dam. I hopped into his branches when the dam's wall began crumbling, releasing a torrent of water, quenching the fires of Saruman and washing away Orcs in its path.
