Back in Esgaroth, Bolg strides across a bridge and issues a command to his Orcs and Wargs who are waiting there.
"Zidgar Guldur-nar!" (Send word to Dol Guldur!) Bolg instructed his fellow orcs in black speech. "Ekinskeld Erebor-nar nakhan!" (Oakenshield has reached the Mountain!)
Bolg and the Orcs turn when they hear the sound of steel and fighting in the town behind them. The sounds were coming from Legolas, who continued to pursue the Hunter Orcs.
Bolg turns back to the Orcs. "Gur!" (Go!) He commanded his orcs and turned to the others. "Abguriz!" (You! Come with me.)
As the Orcs turn to leave, Bolg and two Orcs stride back toward the town. The remaining Orcs and Wargs gallop across a long bridge connecting Esgaroth to the mainland. Bolg steps into a long alley just as Legolas enters it from the other side. They glare at each other, and Legolas whips out Orcrist, which he has been carrying at his hip. Holding it in both hands, he advances toward Bolg.
As they walk toward each other, the other two Orcs appear out of hiding spots on either side of the alley and attack Legolas. Legolas knocks the two of them down just in time to deflect a blow from Bolg. Legolas fights all three Orcs at once, and when he has knocked down the two again, he stabs at Bolg's stomach, but Bolg drops his weapon and catches Legolas's sword between his arm and ribs. He pulls Legolas closer to him using the sword and then throws him against a wooden pillar. Legolas drops the sword. Before he can get up, Bolg grabs him and throws him again, this time into a wall. Bolg strides over and kicks at Legolas, but Legolas manages to grab Bolg's leg and knock him off balance and into the wall behind him. Legolas leaps in the air and delivers a flying punch to Bolg's face. He grab's Bolg and smashes his head repeatedly into the wooden post. He throws Bolg against a wall, but Bolg rebound from the wall and grabs Legolas in a crushing embrace against his chest. He squeezes Legolas and Legolas strains in pain, then jerks his head back into Bolg's face, forcing him to release him. Legolas manages to pull out a knife and slice Bolg lightly on the stomach, but Bolg grabs him and throws him toward the other two Orcs, who have gotten back up. As Legolas fights the two of them with his knife, Bolg strides away, limping.
Legolas dispatches the two Orcs and runs over to where Orcrist is lying on the ground, and he picks it up. As he stands, he falls back against a wall in pain, breathing heavily. His eyes open wide in shock and he raises his hand to his nose. It comes away with blood, and he looked completely shocked and a bit angry. He looks to the side and sees Bolg on a Warg, heading out of the city.
