The Equilibrium of Earth and Space

This was a sudden inspiration that came to me after watching SpongBob Squarepants, Jimmy Neutron, thinking about Lord of the Rings and Kingdom Hearts, and eating chips and dip and Oreos…

I don’t own any of Tolkien’s characters, places, events, languages, etc. but this story has more elements to it, so…

Chapter One: A Storm is Coming…

Helm’s Deep, Middle-Earth~ March 3rd, Year 3019 of the Third Age. 6:44 p.m.

Legolas took in a deep breath. All the Elves at his sides stood at attention. A storm was coming. Not only a thunder storm, but a great battle as well. The Elf closed his eyes for a minute as a small gust of wind rushed past his face.

“You could have picked a better spot!” Legolas smiled as his Dwarven companion hopped around, trying to see over the wall which barely even came up to the Elf’s chest.

Legolas peered out into the darkness again. He could make out the marching shapes rather plainly now. He ran a finger impatiently down the elegant carvings on his bow.

Yes, a storm was coming…

New York City, New York, USA~ March 3rd, Year 3019. 3:26 p.m.

“Come on, Alex! We’ll be late for the movie!” A teenage girl pulled along her friend towards the exit to the school.

“I’m coming!” Alex pulled on her hoodie before following her friend out the door.

They were headed out to a movie right after school, and it was the movie’s opening day, so there was bound to be hundreds of people there.

“Come on, get in!” An older, though shorter, brown-haired boy was waiting for them with his car.

“You have the tickets Riley?” Alex knew that her friend didn’t always remember everything.

“Right here!” He waved three tickets in her face.

“Right. Let’s go!”

Helm’s Deep, Middle-Earth~ March 3rd, Year 3019 of the Third Age. 7:58 p.m.

Legolas whipped out another arrow, a perfect shot into an orc’s deformed neck.

He barely had time to whip out his blades before the onslaught of orcs coming from the ladders hit him.

After a few minutes of fighting like that, it had cleared up a bit. He ripped his blade out of another orc and looked down at the beasts below. They had opened up a path in their numbers leading up to where Legolas knew the sewer system was…

“Togo hon dad! Legolas! Naga hon!” Legolas was already reaching for an arrow as Aragorn yelled at him.

He pulled the arrow back, found aim quickly, and fired. It missed his target at the jugular, instead hitting the base of his neck. The foul beast had managed to keep his balance and just kept running.

He fired again. The orc gave a shout of pain. Legolas started to reach for another arrow. The orc tripped and the wall exploded. The last thing Legolas saw was a fiery explosion before he was thrown into darkness…

“Bye!” Alex waved to her friends, Riley and Ashley, as they drove off. After they had seen the movie, they had hung out at the mall until late. It was raining now, the fact that they had watched the scary movie was not having a good effect on her now…

She climbed quietly up the stairs to her room where she laid down on her bed and was soon fast asleep.

There’s Chapter one.

I hope you like it. Please R&R! If you like it tell me or I won’t continue.

(Togo hon dad! Naga hon! Means ‘Bring him down! Slay him!’)
