The Misty Mountains (LoTR B3)

Chapter 31: Come On

I plunged deep in to the water. As I was quite a bit surprised by the fact that it was not as shallow as I had feared. As it was that I didn't feel my body land on the ground, at that.
How ever, that didn't mean that it still didn't hurt. As it was that I had practically landed face first on the water, at that. As it was that I did in fact feel my entire body in pain, just as it was the case.
Perhaps I had hit the ground, and just not realized it. As it was that I did in fact seem to hear a loud voice from out side the water. As it was that I did in fact listen to what it was that it had to say, at that.
"You will not win! I will kill you all!" I did in fact hear The Watcher say. Just as soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case.
Was I still awake at this point? I was not all too sure as to whether or not that was the case. As perhaps I was even dead right now, and that these were my last moments.
I could be unconscious and still hear the voice in my brain. As it was that it all just felt hopeless to me at this point, at that. As it was that I just continued to stay still, as I found it harder and harder to breathe with each passing second.
This was it, as I could feel it all in side of me. As I was stuck, and I felt like I was about to explode. As it was that I did in fact seem to speak to my self in my head, at that.
"Well... At least I can go down as a warrior who died bravely in battle..." I did in fact just seem to think. As it was that I felt some what better. Just as soon as it was that I had thought on such a thing like that.
Though it still didn't seem to make me feel good at all. As it was that I did in fact simply continue to stare. As it was that the darkness just seemed to get even darker.
That was of course, until I was all of the sudden ripped out of the water. As it was that I let out a loud gasp of air right away. As it was that I heard the voice of Bradley seem to speak to me, all of the sudden.
"Oh no... You are not going to die here today Michael!" He did in fact just seem to say, all at once. As it was that I did in fact have quite a bit of a blank look on my face as he had said that.
I opened my eyes as I did in fact look at the man. As it was that he had his eyes wide as he seemed to stare at me. As it was clear to me that he was in fact a bit scared for me.
He was trying to make sure that I was in fact okay. As it was that I was not all too sure as to whether or not I was at this point. As it was that I then did in fact begin to go and speak back to him, at that.
"Thank you Bradley... I..." I did in fact just seem to start to say to him. As it was that I was not all too sure as to just what else to say. As it was that I felt a bit too lost in my head right now.
I was lost as to just why they were all of the sudden coming back. After it was that they had given up on me and the dwarves so early. As I did my best to try to not get angry about it right now.
As it was clear to me that there were in fact bigger and badder things. That I did in fact need to be worrying about right now. As it was that I heard the loud groan of the monster that was close by.
"Curse you humans! You are not supposed to be here!" It did in fact just seem to yell. As it was that I then did in fact turn my head to it. As it did in fact remind me that it was in fact still with us, at that.
As it was that I did in fact seem to look back at the creature. I was glad to see that it's focus wasn't on me any longer, at that. As it was clearly on the rest of the group, at that.
It was taking arrows from all around at this point. As it was clearly not hard to hit your shot on the monster. As I saw that the arrows were quite a bit spread out all around.
As it was that I had in fact just seemed to have continued to have stared. That was when it was that I did in fact hear the voice of Aaron. As it was that he just then began to start to yell, all at the exact same time too.
"Well we are here now! And you have made a huge mistake with who you messed with!" He did in fact just seem to say. As it was that I could not see the man through all of the fog that was still around us.
It did in fact still make me feel better to know he was by my side. As it was that I did in fact just seem to let out a soft sigh of relief at first. Until it was that I just then did in fact begin to hear the voice of Bradley.
As it was that he seemed to begin to go and speak to me once again. As it was that I just then did in fact begin to go and listen. As to just what ever it was that he had to say to me, all at the exact same time too.
"Come on Michael... We need to get off of the water and see if you can walk!" He did in fact just seem to say. As it was that my eyes grew wide just as soon as he had said that.
As it was that I felt like he had a very fair point on saying that. As I was in fact not at all too sure if I could walk just yet. As it was that I did in fact hold on to the much larger Bradley.
As it was that he did in fact seem to pull me out of the water. I felt a whole lot better just as we got out of there. As I then did in fact begin to start to speak to Bradley, all at once.
"Thank you Bradley..." I did in fact just seem to say to him. As it was that I once again gasped for air, at that. Just as soon as it was that I had said as to what I had said to him.
It felt like a lot of things were in fact going by fast. As it was that it did in fact seem like Bradley wasn't even paying attention to me. As I did in fact see that his focus was in fact on the monster, all at once.
He just seemed to stare at it for just a few seconds, at that. Before he then did in fact look right back at me. And he then did in fact begin to also speak back to me, as well.
"Well... You need to make sure that you can walk Michael... We are going to need you in battle right now... So can you try that for me?" He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time as well, at that.
Just as soon as it was that he had said as to just what he had said. That was when it was that I did in fact realize that he was right. As it was that I could see the rest of the group that was on the shore now.
As it was that they were dodging and weaving the monster. As the monster was reaching closer to the shore it's self, at that. As it was that I did in fact do my best to try to act as normal as I felt like I could.
I then once again looked right back at Bradley, all at once. As it was that I just then did in fact go and nod back to the man. And I then did in fact also go and speak to him, all at the exact same time too.
"Yeah... I can try..." I did in fact just seem to say to him. As it was that I did in fact lift my self from off of the ground, at that. As it was that I did in fact begin to start to walk, all at the exact same time too.
I did in fact seem to stumble on my feet as I did as such. As I did in fact seem to be all over the place right now. As I did in fact do my best to try to get my focus back, at that.
As it was that I felt very sore, as well as the fact that I felt dizzy. As it was that I then did in fact hear the voice of Bradley speak. And I then began to go and listen as to just what he had to say, all at once.
"I will take that as a no... You need to stay back Michael... You are the most important out of all of us..." He did in fact just seem to say. As I was quite a bit lost as to just what he had meant by that, all at once.
I knew that Kips had told me that the group was free to go with out me. As now he seemed to be changing the idea, all at once. Even though they had in fact left with out us, all at once.
As it was that I did in fact seem to think on that for some time. That was when it was that I then squinted my eyes back at Bradley. And I also then did in fact begin to speak back to him, all at the exact same time too.
"No... I can walk... I am fine... I am just a little sore from the fall... I can get over it..." I did in fact just seem to say to Bradley, all at once. As I made sure that I was not looked at, as some sort of weak boy, at that.
I felt like I was looked at like that at often times, none the less. As it was that I did my best to try to stay strong. As I knew that I wasn't in any sort of real pain, at that.
As it was that Bradley did in fact seem to stare back at me. That was when it was that he then squinted his eyes back at me. And he also then began to go and speak back to me, all of the sudden, at that.
"Well... If that's the case, then let's go Michael... We need all of the help that we can get right now!" He did in fact just seem to say. As it was that he then did in fact pull out his sword just as he had said that.
As it was that he had said as to just what he had said. That was when it was that I blinked my eyes just a few times at first. And I then did in fact begin to go and nod back to him, all at the exact same time too.
Just as soon as it was that I had done as such a thing like that. I then also began to simply go and start to walk with the man. As it was that we did in fact join up with the rest of the group in battle, all at once.
Just as soon as it was that we had in fact gotten over to them. That was when it was that I heard the voice of Connor go and speak. As it was that I did in fact go and listen as to just what he had to say, at that.
"Michael is fine? Good! We could use his help! We've already lost Tom!" He did in fact just seem to say. As it was that he did in fact have his eyes wide just as he had said that.
Just as soon as it was that he had said as to just what he had said. That was when it was that I did in fact drop my head to the ground. As it was that I knew that this was in fact still all my fault, all at once.
As it was that I seemed to stand there and stare for some time. That was when it was that I did in fact just seem to hear Steve speak. As it was that I did in fact listen as to just what he had to say, none the less.
"Gone... But not lost... We need to kill this thing..." He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I saw him dodge one of the tentacles.
Just as soon as it was that he had said as to what he had said. As it was that I did in fact blink my eyes a few times, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I then saw him shoot an arrow at the creature, at that.
I saw it hit the creature, but it didn't seem to do real damage. As much as it was that it felt like it might just be a pinch to the thing. As it was that I just then began to step in and speak, all at the exact same time too.
"No... You've got this all wrong! You've got to cut the tentacles! I did it in the water! It is possible!" I did in fact just seem to say to them all, all at the exact same time too.
As it was that I did in fact say as to just what I had said. That was when it was that I saw a few of them look at me. As it was that their eyes were quite wide just as they did as such.
As it was that I then did in fact go right on ahead and hear Dick speak. As it was that I listened as to what he had to say, at that. Even as much as it was that I felt like I really didn't want to.
"Yeah... It's a lot easier said than done there Michael... I'd like to see you try, because if you let it touch you... Well... You'll be joining Tom..." He did in fact just seem to say. As it was that he did in fact just seem to look right at me as he had said that.
He then turned his head away from me after saying that. As he then took his bow and fired another arrow. As it hit the monster, but the monster did in fact seem to ignore Dick.
As it was that it went straight for his feet, all at once. As it was that Dick then did in fact try to jump over it. But the tentacles went a little bit too high for him, all at once.
They seemed to snatch directly on to Dick, all of the sudden. As it was that I then did in fact begin to think quick, all at once. As it was that I then did in fact begin to go and speak out loud, all of the sudden.
"I'll show you how it's done... We can't just be taken out one by one..." I did in fact just seem to say to them, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I did in fact pull out my sword, all at the exact same time too.
As it was that I then did in fact begin to rush to the aid of Dick. As it was that I could already see him being pulled away, at that. As it was that I did in fact jump up, swinging in with my sword, all of the sudden.
As it was that I almost did in fact hit Dick with it. Which I knew would in fact be a deadly blow. With how sharp this sword was, none the less.
How ever, I just barely was able to manage to hit the tentacle. As it was that I then did in fact hear the creature yell on pain. As it was that I did in fact begin to start to hear it yell back at me, once again.
"You will die! You will die Michael!" It did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As it was clear that the creature was very angry with me, none the less. As I felt like I could care less as to whether or not it was.
I did in fact seem to keep my focus on the creature, at that. As it was that I did in fact seem to see that it was coming right at me now. As it was that I did in fact see that there was more than one that was coming.
Just as it was that it was about to come close, and I was going to choose as to what to swing at. That was when it was that I heard the voice of a few of the others. As it was that I did in fact listen as to what Owen had to say in specific, at that.
"Don't worry Michael! We've got you!" He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As just as soon as it was that he had said as to just what it was that he had said.
That was when it was that I suddenly saw them come from my blind spot. As it was that they did in fact swing right at the tentacles. As it was that the creature then began to get more and more angry.
As their cuts didn't seem to be as sharp as mine had been. As they managed to simply puncture the creature, all at the exact same time too. But that still did not seem to matter either which way, at that.
As it was that it was enough to make the creature move back. As it was that I did in fact just seem to start to hear the voice of Limbsy. As it was that he then did in fact seem to yell with his axe out, at that.
"Come on men! This is where we strike even harder now! We must finish the job!" He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As it was that he had a serious look on his face just as he had said that.
I looked at his axe, as it was that the metal seemed to glow. Just as it was that it seemed to do with me, at that. As it was that I realized that it was made out of the same material as my sword was, all at once.
Just as soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case. That was when it was that I then did in fact just seem to shiver. As it was that I looked at the rest of my group, as it was clear that they were worn already.
As it was that I had realized that it was in fact the case. That was when it was that I then began to start to go and step in and speak. As it was that I made sure that they could all hear as to just what I had to say, at that.
"No... We can't beat this thing still... It has hundreds of tentacles... We need to find a way out..." I did in fact just seem to say, all at once. As it was that I did in fact look behind my self, just as soon as I had said that.
Just as soon as it was that I had said as to just what I had said. That was when it was that I heard the voice of Kips go and speak. As it was that I did in fact look in to the fog, as I listened as to what he had to say.
"There is nothing and no where for us to go besides a huge rock wall Michael... We have no other choice but to fight..." He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too.
Just as soon as it was that he had said as to just what he had said. That was when it was that I then squinted my eyes at the fog. And I did in fact seem to see that he was in fact correct, all at the exact same time too.
Just as soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case. That was when it was that I did in fact hear the voice of Aaron. As it was that I did in fact begin to listen as to just what it was that he had to say.
"Yeah... Plus we can't really give up on Tom just yet, right?" He did in fact just seem to say. As he did in fact seem to be quite a bit scared. As it was clear that he feared for the life of his friend, all at once.
As it was that I realized that it was in fact the case, all at once. That was when it was that I did in fact look man at the younger man. And I then did in fact just seem to simply go and squint my eyes at him.
Just as soon as it was that I had done as such a thing like that. That was when it was that I did in fact eventually let out a very rough sigh. And I then did in fact begin to also go and speak back to him, at that.
"Fine... We fight... And we fight like hell..." I did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I did in fact have my eyes squinted just as I had said that.
As soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case. That was when it was that I heard a battle cheer. As it did in fact seem to come from the rest of the group, at that.
I couldn't help but to smile just as soon as it was the case. As I felt like this was my place, all at the exact same time as well. As I did in fact feel like I did in fact really fit in, all at the exact same time too.
Just as soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case. That was when it was that I did in fact seem to pull out my sword. As it was that the tentacles came towards us once again, as I did in fact hear Steve yell, at that.
"Onwards! Together men! And dwarf!" He did in fact just seem to yell, all at the exact same time too. As it was that he did in fact go and lead the charge. As it was clear that we were no longer in defense mode, at that.
Which made sense, as I knew that you could not win a fight. If it was that you did in fact simply play on defense, all at the exact same time too. As it was that I was the next person to go and join Steve, at that.
I then did in fact swing at as many tentacles as I could. As I cut through multiple just as I had done as such a thing like that. As it was that I did in fact make sure that the thing could in fact feel the pain.
The creature did in fact seem to go and shriek. As it was clear that it had in fact not expected us all to do that. As it was clear that it was in even more pain than it had been before.
The creature then did in fact being to start to yell, all at once. As it was that I then did in fact begin to start to hear it yell at us. As it was that I did in fact go and listen as to just what it was that it had to say.
"Fine! You win humans! You were much more brave than even I had expected!" It did in fact just seem to say, all at once. As it was that the voice seemed to go back to normal just as it had said that.
Just as soon as it was that it had said as to just what it had said. That was when it was that I did in fact just seem to see it pull it's tentacles back. As it was that I felt a whole lot better just as soon as it was the case.
I did in fact hear the cheering of Limbsy, all of the sudden. As it was that I did in fact listen as to just what he had to say. Just as soon as it was that he did in fact begin to go and speak out loud, at that.
"We did it! We won!" He did in fact just seem to yell, all at the exact same time too, at that. As it was that he was in fact quite proud of us all just as it was that he had said that.
I felt like I couldn't help but to also smile my self, all of the sudden. As it was that I then did in fact simply go and grin. Just as soon as it was that it had in fact all been the case.
Just as soon as it was that I had in fact heard as to what he had said as well. That was when it was that I heard a loud splash in the water. As it was that I turned my head on over to it, as I did in fact hear the voice of Mitch go and speak, at that.
"What was that?" He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As it was that he some how did in fact seem to be afraid. Even though it was clear that the monster had in fact left.
Just as soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case. That was when it was that I did in fact look in to the water, at that. As it was that I saw that there was a ripple from what ever had landed there.
As it was that it had in fact just seemed to have been the case. That was when it was that I blinked my eyes quite a few times. And I then did in fact simply just seem to hear Aaron go and speak, all at once, at that.
"That was Tom! We need to get to him quick!" He did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time too. As it was that he did in fact have a bit of a look of fear on his face, at that.
He had said as to just what it was that he had said. As it was that I had expected to see him lead the charge, at that. To go and help his friend, all at the exact same time too.
How ever, he just seemed to continue to stare at the water in fear. As it was that I then did in fact decide to go and step in, all at once. As it was that I quickly began to speak, just as soon as it was that I did in fact run in to the water, at that.
"I've got this..." I did in fact just seem to say, all at the exact same time as well, at that. As it was that I did in fact ignore every thing else. As it was that I got my focus on to the area where the ripples were in the water.
I then did in fact go over to where it was that it happened to be at. As it was that I did in fact swim as fast as it was that I felt like I could. As it was that I knew that any moment the man could drown and die.
Just as soon as it was that it had in fact just been the case. That was when it was that I did in fact hear the voice of Limbsy. As I heard him go and speak from behind me, at that.
"I will come... Just in case the monster is waiting..." He did in fact just seem to say, all at once. As though I did in fact not look at the dwarf at all.
I was quite sure that he had his axe in his hand, all at once. As it was that he then did in fact begin to go and swim right behind me. As it was that I did in fact continue to focus on where the ripples were at.
Just as it was that I did in fact get over to the ripples. As thankfully I was in fact a very good, and a very fast swimmer at that. I had only taken me maybe 30 seconds at the most, all of the sudden.
I then did in fact reach in to the water, all at once. As it was that I felt a body in side of there, all at the exact same time as well. As it was that I then did in fact begin to go and speak, all at the exact same time too.
"Come on Tom! Come on!"
