Fallen Hero

By MysteriousWays

 

"Noooooo!" screamed Merry. "Boromir, NO! Aragorn!"

Merry screamed. His mind raced. Seconds passed. Orcs carried him and Pippin away. Merry could not pull his horrified gaze from Boromir, on his knees, his body riddled with arrows yet still struggling to stand and fight. Merry struggled too. He kicked and screamed. He fought to get free. He fought to be heard. He fought to run back to Boromir in hopes that the tall man might still be saved. Merry kicked and hit. A Hobbit knee in orc ribs. A hobbit elbow in base of an orc skull.

"Enough, you little rat!" cried the orc. Who then swung Merry by the waist, at a nearby tree. A hobbit brow met the bark of the tree. Merry no longer fought nor screamed. Merry’s blood oozed out the fresh cut on his head.
