35.
Aragorn was bleeding fast. Legolas remained unconscious.
Gimli hacked at each orc, never giving up. How he wished for Legolas's bow to buy more time, or for Aragorn's sword to strike another of those demons!
'Well, a dwarf's got to do what a dwarf's got to do…' Gimli thought. Smiling grimly, he lunged at them anew. He had to defend his friends; he would never let them down.
A trail of corpses snaked around him and more orcs were coming. He shouted across, "Aragorn! How are you feeling?"
"Good for now…" Aragorn replied weakly, a hand pressed on his wound.
