5. I will not distract anyone when they are fighting a Balrog of Morgoth.
'Gandalf!' Merry called out, 'Gandalf! GANDALF!'
'WHAT?' Gandalf asked through gritted teeth, 'WHAT, pray, could be so utterly important at a time like such?' he dodged another sway from the Balrog's whip.
'It's, it's- um' he glanced at Boromir, who happened to be standing next to him, and had an idea, 'It's Pippin!' he exclaimed loudly as the Balrog cracked his whip again, 'He's fallen into the chasm!'
'That Fool of a Took!' Gandalf glanced down at the seemingly bottomless pit, 'I suppose it's my duty to save him now' he jumped aside from the Balrog's whip and looked up into its hideous face, 'D'you think we can hurry this fight up a bit? I have to go rescue a lub of fat that just fell in that hole'
At this moment Pippin decided to skip over from where he was examining a particularly pretty piece of rock, 'Hey Merry! I thought I heard my name'
'Shut UP!' Merry muttered through gritted teeth and shoved him backwards into Aragorn, who was picking his teeth.
'I'm going to save him now. Fly, you fools!' And with that he jumped off the bridge into the chasm to "rescue" Pippin.
No one found out the truth.
Until Gandalf got back.
Merry's hands still ache from THAT punishment.
Please read...and then review...or just read...or whatever :)
