3. Ultimatum

Chapter 3: Ultimatum

MorgothII: What is up readers?

Diluvium: Yes just him and me here

M (pointing to ruined remains of Sauron): What about him?

D: Uh, someone call for clean up!

M (sighing): I call for the balrogs to do it

There was a uneasy silence for a moment. Then a figure wearing a crown and wielding a two-handed sword. "I am Aragorn, king of Gondor and leader of this army. Diluvium, I ask you this. What do you want from us?" he asks him. Diluvium chuckles, a dark sound. Then he stops and responds to the question asked.

"What do I want? I want to have many things. I want your metals. I want your food. I want your land. I want your allegiance to me. That is what I want," he says evilly. At these words an old man steps forth. He is clad in white robes and wields an Elvin sword. "I am Gandalf the White," he says in a serious voice. "You have a chance to become a great leader of peace, instead of being another tyrant." Again Diluvium laughs at this. "You are just an old fool! I have two rings of great power now, mine and Sauron's! Both are made for destruction, not helping those that cannot help themselves! If you are against us, then leave. I swear on my honor that I will give you five days to make your final answer. On the fifth day, I will lead my host to the Pelennor Fields. There you will give me your final answer. Choose wisely. Now, be gone!" said he.

The captains of the Host of the West marshaled their troops, and their king led them back to Minas Tirith. Meanwhile, back at the gates the new warlord gathered his new army together. The first to instantly pledge loyalty to him are, of course, the orcs and trolls. After much hesitation, the men of Harad and Rhun pledge their allegiance to Diluvium as well. Finally the remaining eight Nazgul pledge to be his loyal second in commands to him as well.

"Who among you is the highest ranking of your eight?" he asks. One of them steps forward and, in an unnatural voice, says "That would be me. I am Khamul, former second highest ranking Nazgul and now the highest," he says. Diluvium gives an evil grin. "Good, good. You will be my second-in-command. Now, rally all our forces. Tell them to make haste for here. When we march to Minas Tirith, I expect that the answer will be no. When that happens, attack the place, leave none alive except for the wizard. He has something I need, a ring of power. He will give it to me." Diluvium commands.

The Nazgul all bow, get up, rush to their fell winged mounts, and fly to do their master's will. As they do that, said master thinks in his head, So, it will begin. The fools have no idea what will await them. This thought, along with others, make a fell smile play across his face.

MorgothII: Another one bites the dust.

*Balrogs walk in*

M: Ah, good! Please go clean up that mess over their now.

*Balrogs all nod and do the task given to them*

Diluvium: Man, I am awesome!

M: Oh, do not get a bloated head yet. There is more to come next. To fellow readers, please read and respond to me.

*Chapter 4: Will Aragorn choose to join our villain, or oppose his might? And why does Diluvium want with the rings? Tune in next time to find out more!*
