35. Two Battles

This chapter has 703 words.

3rd person view:
They had been driving for almost 2 hours before they saw the battlefield.

View of Aragorn:
Between the clanking of swords, I heard Gimli and Legolas count.
"Twenty-five, twenty-six ..." Legolas said.
"Sixteen, seventeen," Gimli said again. I always found it funny how the two of them were still racing.

After another hour, we already won.
"Release us," the King of the Dead told me.
"Bad idea, these guys are a great fit in an emergency.  Even though they're dead, "Gimli replied for them.
"You have given us your word," said the King of the Dead again.
"I consider your oath fulfilled, go. Peace be with you. ”I said with a smile.

After a while, I heard Éomer roar. At first I was scared, but then I understood.  Éowyn is dead. I felt sorry for him, even though I only liked Éowyn as a friend, I was still sad.

As I treated her, I noticed she was alive. I was very happy. At least I won't have to choose another woman. I thought in my head. As soon as I found out, I went to tell Éomer. He was very happy. And me too. I was glad no one close to me had died, except Théoden.

Legolas View:
"The darkness deepens," Eomer said.
"If Sauron had a ring, you would know," Aragorn told Éomer.
,, It is only matter of time. The enemy has been defeated, but is regrouping behind the walls of Mordor. "Éomer said again
"Let him stay there ... Let him go!  What is after us, "Gimli said.
"But now there are 10,000 goblins between Frodo and Mount of Destiny," Eomer said.
"Frodo still has hope. It needs time and safe passage across the Gorgoroth plain. We can give him that." said my beloved man.
"How?" Gimli asked, smoking a pipe.
"We're luring Sauron's troops. He empties Mordor ... We will gather our entire army and go to the black gate " When Aragorn said his plan, Gimli was taken aback.
"We cannot win by force of arms," ​​said Eomer
"Certainly not, but if we get Sauron's attention, we'll give Frodo a better chance ... he'll be blind to everything else that's moving," Aragorn said.
"We're luring him away," I said confidently.
"It is a certain death, a small hope of success. So we're waiting for it, "Gimli said. Then Eomer came to Aragorn and whispered something to him.
Something like Sauron finds out it's a trap. But Aragorn replied: I don't think so.

View of Aragorn:
Right after this conversation ended, I decided to go see the palantir. I "talked" with him for a while and managed everything until he showed me Legolas. He was pale, paler than normal, and there was blood all around. I immediately went to Legolas to tell him what I saw there. Then Legolas reassured me that he had no plans to die yet.

We left the next morning. I followed Legolas, Gimli and Éomer first. When we arrived there, all the soldiers stood in line. I, Legolas, Gimli and Éomer went to the Black Gate. After a moment, the gate began to open, and Sauron's Mouth came out.

"Is anyone in that asshole entitled to deal with me?" Sauron asked.
"We are not coming to negotiate with the treacherous and cursed Sauron," Éomer said
"I have something to show you," Sauron's Mouth said. As he did, he pulled out the mytril Frodo was wearing. He came so I cut off his head and Gimli said:
"I suspect this is the end of negotiations." Then the gate began to open and there were 300,000 goblins. Now we are back behind the soldiers.

Legolas View:
Then Aragorn gave an encouraging speech. When Aragorn said that, the goblins surrounded us on all sides.
"It never occurred to me that I would fall in battle with the elf," Gimli told me when there were goblins all around us.
"How about fighting alongside a friend?" I asked Gimli with a smile.
"Yeah, I could do that," Gimli told me.
When Aragorn stood in front of me, I heard Sauron's eye address him. Then we all stopped fighting.

I know this chapter is very brief.
