| Scene 2 |
| ( Next scene: In a woodland clearing, near Bree. The Wraiths all look worried. Some are smoking, some are drinking coffee, and some are just pacing back and forth. The Wraiths will be referred to in this scene by number.) One: This is bad. Very bad. Three: We know! What do you think we�re all worrying about? One: Well it�s just that I.... Three: Shut up! That was a rhetorical question. We all know that the masters ring has been nicked by a halfling, and we�re supposed to get it back... Eight: Yeah! A halfling! We were upstaged by four little halflings! Four little people got away from us! The Nagzul! The human Ring-Bearers! The Wraiths! One: Look, all we have to do is find out where they�ll stop next. And I�ve got a bloody good idea where it�ll be as well... Other Wraiths: (At once): Where? One: Well, where�s the only place nearby that�s fairly safe eh? Six: Dunno...Rivendell? One: Nearer than that. Three: Weathertop? One: Yup. There�s a very good chance they�ll go there. We�ll have to beat �em to it. Two: But what if that Gandalf guy is waiting for �em there as well? One: Our Master has been keeping in touch with Saruman via the Orthanc stone. I have reassurances that Gandalf is safely on top of the tower, in the middle of an orc-drenched Isengard. Nine: Well let�s get going then! (The Wraiths ride off with their horses, whooping and cheering) |
