The young fanboy had offended the cast and crew one too many times. From his insistence upon a shield-skateboarding scene to his endless whining for a Liv Tyler cameo, he had pushed the hard-core Tolkienites to the brink of madness. When he suggested cutting Tom Bombadil's second chorus of "Hey! Come derry dol!", it was just too much, and the youngster found himself bound and gagged and roughly deposited in a closet to wait out the remainder of the filming.
It really wasn't anyone's fault that they forgot about him, or that the closet was surprisingly air-tight. Rune knew his time was up. He put on his elf costume and walked out to the middle of the complex at midnight under the full moon. Bow in hand, he challenged the wolves to come out and fight. Only one answered; and though Rune fired arrow after arrow from his endless supply, they had no effect but to make the warg look slightly porcupine-like. As the Ranger/Spy watched the hulking, dark form shuffling closer, he looked boldly into its eyes...and knew who it was. He threw back his head and laughed...and taunted the creature, saying "I see you..." before he was silenced forever. So much for blond elves. Night 4 is over. Day 4 dawns. Good luck...
