Zis Chapter is really short. M'kay?
Chaptar Ten
The three of us ran through the dense forest, when I say dense, I mean dense! The forest was to thick with trees there was hardly enough room to move around. I mean, Pippin had already bashed into a tree and had a huge purple bruise on his fore head.
Anyway, We stopped, panting.
We flopped onto the ground and got almost comfortable when...
“When are you y’little gerbils? I’ll rip yer heads off!”
One of the orcs had followed us from the battle into the forest.
At that point, I regurgitated my heart.
I had to inhale it back into my system.
“Come on!” Squeal Merry, climbing a tree.
I launched myself onto the tree and started climbing as fast as I could.
Finally we reached the top of the tree and rested.
“Yes!” exclaimed Merry holding onto a branch,”He’s gone.”
And then suddenly Merry was pulled off the tree by the orc who had supposedly “gone”.
The orc pinned Merry to the ground and unsheathed his sword, there was nothing Pippin on I could do, unless we chuck ourselves off the tree and plummet to our deaths.
The bark I was holding onto started to move.
I turned around to look at the tree only to find a massive eye stare me in the face. Now that I think of it, there when two eyes.
I screamed and let go of the tree, started to tip back and fall when.
WHOOSH!Everything happened so quickly I can scarcely remember. The tree picked up it’s foot and squashed the orc and with a swish of his “hand” he picked up Merry in one hand and me and Pippin in the other... Great.
“Little orcs and a slightly bigger one.” Said the tree in a low growl.
“Gee thanks Mr. Tree.” I blurted out.
“Tree? I am no tree! I am an ent!”
“Treeherder!” Muttered Merry “A shepherd of the forest!”
“Thanks for the trivia, man.” I snapped back sarcastically.
“Treebeard, some call me.” Said the ent carrying on.
Pippin seemed to have gotten back his gift to speak back and piped up “Whose side are YOU on?”
“Side? I am on nobody’s side, little orc.”
“I’m not an orc” replied Pippin “I’m a hobbit, so is he!” he motioned to Merry who nodded furiously.
“And I’m a teenager!” I put in.
“Hobbit? Teenager? Never heard of it. Sounds like orc mischief to me!”
I swore loudly.
“Yooou...” Treebeard paused to breath “Puzzle me with your strange words...”
I swore loudly again.
