~*~ Last Time on So Far Away ~*~
"What do you wish for me to do for you now Princess?" the horse then asked."Take me to Edoras along with my companions." Ainawen answered and Helios bowed once and again and allowed his princess to get on his back. Legolas stared at Ainawen with a curious glance. 'What has she not told us yet about herself?' Legolas asked himself. But soon snapped back into reality when the horses Eomer let them borrow arrived. He and Gimli got onto the white one and Aragorn on the dark brown. The group then set off, with Gandalf leading, to Edoras, where the sickened King lies...
Frodo and Sam have now finally reached the Black Gate of Mordor, Gollum hisses with fright."The black Gate of Mordor..." Smeagol whispers."My old Gaffer would have a thing or two to say if he saw this." Sam stated with his eyes opened wide."Master says show him the way into Mordor, so good Smeagol does," Smeagol whimpered."I did..." Frodo answered. They see that there are Orcs patrolling at the Gate."That's it then...We cannot get past them." Sam stated with a lot of doubt. Then from their right, an army of Easterling soldiers marching towards the Black Gate, yelling a call-and-response marching song."Za dashu snaku Zigur, Durbgu nazgshu, Durbgu dashshu!"[1] the Easterlings shouted. Smeagol, terrified, covered his ears and wailed. A command is heard and an orc blows into his horn, signaling for the Gate to be opened. And with not but a few seconds later two trolls are pulling the Gate open.
"Look! The gate, it's opening!" Sam shouted happily."I can see a way down.." Sam whispers as he moves closer to the edge and leans forward. Suddenly the rock under him gives away and he falls, tumbles and lands at the bottom of the tall hill."Sam! No!!" Frodo cries and runs after his friend."Argh!!!" Sam screeched. Frodo not wasting anytime jumps down and skids down the dirt and rocks, dodging the large boulders as he goes."Master!!" Gollum yells. Two of the Easterlings look up and sees the streams of dust coming down the cliff and moved away from the troop to investigate it. Frodo finally reaches Sam who is stuck in the scree. As the Easterlings move closer, Frodo throws his elven cloak over himself and Sam to shield them from their un welcoming eyes. The soldiers walk over towards the hobbits and stands directly infront of them. They look around to see nothing but a large rock, signaling to the other soldier they leave and Frodo quickly throws back the cloak and digs Sam out.
"I do not ask you to come with me, Sam." Frodo tells his friend."I know Mr. Frodo, I doubt even these elvish cloaks will help is in there." Sam answers. The two small beings prepare to make a run for the Gate that was slowly closing. Seeing there chance Frodo looks over at Sam and nods."NOW!" Frodo cries and himself and Sam began to dart off towards the closing Gate. but at the last moment Gollum pulls them back quickly slamming them into the floor and Gollum begins to pet Frodo's arm."NO! No! No, master! They catch you! They catch you. Don't take it to Him. He wants the Precioussss. Always he's looking for it, and the Preciousss is wanting to go back to him! but we musn't let Him have it..." Gollum says gravely trying to talk Frodo out of going through the Gate. Frodo tries to make a run for it again, but Gollum stops him again and pulls him back."No! There is another way! More secret, and dark way..." Gollum said hesitantly."Why haven't you spoken of this before?!" Sam growled and held his fist up."Because master did not ask!!!" Gollum shrieked and held his arms up to protect him in case the hobbit's fist came down upon him.
"He's up to something!" Sam glared at Gollum."Are you saying that there is another way to Mordor?" Frodo asked the tortured creature."Yes...There's a path, and, and some stairs and then a-a-a tunnel..." Gollum stroked Frodo's arm and buries his face in Frodo's cloak."He's led us this far, Sam.." Frodo begins."Mr. Frodo, no!" Sam interrupted."He's been true to his word!" Frodo began again."No!" Sam argued."Lead the way, Smeagol." Frodo ignored Sam's words."Good Smeagol always helps." Smeagol whispered. Sam just looked at Frodo in disbelief.
Gandalf, Aragorn, Ainawen, Legolas, and Gimli finally arrived at Edoras."Edoras and the Golden Hall of Meduseld. There dwells Theoden, King of Rohan, whose mind is overthrown." Gandalf stated sadly......
