Pippin reaches out a hand to touch the arrow in the skeleton's hand. Its head falls off and into the well, bouncing off the walls. Gandalf turns around swiftly as the whole skeleton, and the chains it holds fall into the well. It bounces down, echoes are heard throughout the mines. Pippin grimaces. Everyone holds their breath, but nothing is heard. Aragorn and Boromir breathe a sigh of relief.
GANDALF: (closing the book) Fool of a Took! (he puts down the book and takes back his hat and staff) Throw yourself in next time, and rid us of your stupidity!
Pippin looks folorn. As Gandalf turns away a drum is heard. The drums get louder and faster. Everyone looks around. Sam looks at Frodo's sword
SAM: Frodo!
Frodo unsheaths his sword which is glowing blue. A screeching is heard.
LEGOLAS: Orcs!
Boromir runs to the doors.Two arrows fly past his head, narrowly missing him, and stick into the door.
ARAGORN: (to the hobbits) Get back! and stay close to Gandalf.
Gandalf puts his arms around them. Boromir shuts the doors quickly. Aragorn comes to help him barr it shut
BOROMIR: They have a cave troll!
Legolas throws axes to them to barr the door. Gandalf draws his sword. The hobbits copy. The doors are being battered. Gimli gets up on Balin's tomb
GIMLI: Agh! Let them come There's one dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath.
