Well I know that it's pretty much a striaght road through Edoras and Helms Deep. After that it's the Gap of Rohan where we have to stop to fill up the car.

*drives one handedly through firien wood while munching awkwardly on her sendwich. spares a finger to punch on the headlamps and the car trundles on as fast as its wheels can trundle. gulps down the last of the bread and grips the steering wheel fiercely with both hands. has been going through here for a while, and the denseness is becoming less. can distincly see the trees to her right thinning out-
*suddenly finds the car deeper in the ground than it was- wait, no, that's water. pummels the accelerator (we'll need a new one when the race is over...) and speeds through the stream, spraying water every whichway.* the windows are up, right?
*fortunately, they are. clear of the stream, the red car zooms on, straining to keep the other two vehicles in sight.*

Reaches the Gap of Rohan and slams on the brakes. The car skids sideways before coming to a halt.
Okay Elidor fill her up!
If anyone wants the bathroom go now cos we're not stopping again.
*Jumps out of the car and strides across the forecourt to a small shop.*
I'm sick of hotdog's.
*Peruses the aisles picking up Doritos, Pringles, a large bottle of coke, some doughnuts and chewing gum...

*finally out of the woods, the red car now careers along the open road at top speed. pushes the sunglasses up the bridge of her nose and squints ahead.* there's the elf car... *glances sideways at the car's clock, by the radio.* we'll be at the gap of rohan pretty soon... *brushes hair from her eyes.* i think we're doing alright for time, it's barely noon now. *draws level with luth and areth.* you want to switch when we reach the gap? *shuggles the gearstick and pulls ahead.*

*Looks at the dials*
We're almost out of petrol. I hope we've got enough to get us to The Gap of Rohan.
*Sees the rangers approaching fast*
They're catching us!

*waves as they overtake the green car, then focuses once more on the road. glances at the fuel gauge; they'll be alright for a while, but like the elves, they should probably fill up soon.
*a time later, while the cars are still in eachother's view, the river isen comes into view, and of course, the gap of rohan. taps at the pedal again and hopes they hold out.*

*Grins* We didn't drive as crazy as the others so we'll have some fuel to spare. But I think we should also fill the spare tank. Might come in handy later....

*can faintly see the gap of rohan ahead, and seeing that they're almost out of er, petrol and what not she speeds up, as much as possible, slowly makes it past the rangers, waving-thusly kinda swerving, and then they finally reach the gap of rohan* Come on all, let's go, let's go! I may know how to drive this thing, but that's all, I know...

*Walks out of the shop and wipes his bloodied sword on his robes. Stands there for a moment contemplating what he should do.
It wasn't his fault. He had no choice. The cashier wouldn't accept Mordorcard and there was nowhere else you could buy Doritos for miles.
Sees two cars racing towards him.*
Oh it's them.....................
*Quickly jumps in the car and drives away hoping they haven't seen him. His mind is not on the race, he just wants to get away from The Gap of Rohan as quickly as possible.*

*Drives on towards Isengard, steering with one hand whilst trying to get the lid of the pringles. The lid flies off and the crisps spill all over the car. Swears and throws the tube out of the window. Drives past the magnificent tower of Othanc and waves to an orc on guard. Yells out the window* I'd come in for tea but I'm in a race! Ah yes, the race. It had quite slipped his mind in the hurry to get away. He felt like there was something else he's forgotten......  ELIDOR!!!!I've forgotten Elidor  Hell, it's a race I can't go back. |

*They reach the petrol station. Jumps out of the car, seing a trail of blood from the building and Eli lying in the dust.* Uh, what happened here? Seems there's noone left we could pay for the fuel...a few precious minutes gained...*Starts to fill the tank.*
