Chapter One

One fine morning there was a hobbit called Bilbo Baggins and he was sitting outside of his place in his chair smoking his pipe with his eyes closed. He heard someone cough when he opened his eyes he saw a person wearing grey clothes and he had a hat and staff on him.

Bilbo said "Good morning." The stranger said "Good morning my name is Gandalf the grey." Bilbo got off his chair and got his letters out of his mailbox then he said "Goodbye Gandalf." He then walked inside and shut the door.

Gandalf went up to Bilbo's door and put a mark on it then he left to find the dwarfs he met some on the way and had told them to find the mark and the door and they did.

That night when Bilbo was about to eat the food he cooked there was a knock on the door when he opened it he saw a dwarf by the name of Dwalin so he let him in and he ate his food but then there was another knock on the door.

The next dwarf that came was called Balin and him and Dwalin started to clean up an area so that all the dwarfs would fit into the room. Fili and Kili were next and Kili said "You must be Mr Boggins then they walked in.

A few minutes later Gandalf with the rest of the dwarf and there names are Oin, Gloin, Ori, Nori, Bifur, Bofur and Bombur. They walked into Bilbo's house and ate all his food he had in the pantry.

After they had eaten all of the food there was another knock on the door so Bilbo answered in and there was the last dwarf they was waiting for his name is Thorin Oakenshield.

Gandalf and the dwarves were explaining to Bilbo that they wanted him to be part of the company to take back the mountain of Erebor from the dragon Smaug but Bilbo said "I'm not cut out for an adventure." So Bilbo went into his room to sleep from his room he could hear the dwarves singing.

When Bilbo woke up Gandalf and the dwarves were gone but the contract was still there so Bilbo looked at it and then he signed it. He ran out of his door when he packed some of his stuff to find Gandalf and the dwarves.

Bilbo saw them and yelled out "Wait I signed it." Then he handed it to Balin who said "Welcome to the company of Thorin Oakenshield." Kili and Fili lifted Bilbo up on the horse and started to head into the direction of the mountain of Erebor.

They stopped once to sleep but they always had one dwarf or two staying awake, when Thorin keeping watch with Bilbo he didn't like Bilbo so he started hitting Bilbo saying that he didn't belong with them and he never will.

Bilbo woke up the next morning and he was covered in bruises starting from his arms, chest, stomach, his ribs and the tops of his legs. Bilbo was glad that his clothes covered them.

They ended up getting chased by orcs and wargs they fought some and then they went down a hole in between two rocks but the rest got killed by the Elves. The hole led them to Rivendell the house of Lord Elrond.

When Lord Elrond came up to greet them him and Gandalf was talking in Elvish Lord Elrond led them to where they would be eating. When Lord Elrond looked at Bilbo who was sitting next to Balin flinch every time Thorin looked at him.

That evening the dwarves wanted a bath so they had one but Bilbo just wanted to explore the place so he started walking around talking with the elves he pasted. Lord Elrond was talking to Gandalf, Lady Galadriel and Saruman. When they had finished talking Lord Elrond saw Bilbo and walked over to him and said "If you would like to stay you can stay for a while."

But Bilbo just said "No I have to go with the company they need me." Then he left to go to his room. Lord Elrond watched him go but when he looked into Bilbo's eyes he could tell that he was scared of Thorin but didn't know why.

The next day Thorin, the other dwarves and Bilbo left Rivendell while Gandalf talked to Lord Elrond a bit more, Lord Elrond said "Gandalf, why is Bilbo afraid of Thorin for?" Gandalf just looked at Lord Elrond and shrugged his shoulders because he didn't know.
