Summary:
Thorin and the company had just set forth on their quest to reclaim Erebor, but the moment they began to walk through the forest to venture further from the Shire the ground began to shake, and up above a swirling black vortex appeared in the sky above the company. Out of the vortex shot two figures clad in leather with wings as black as a starless night with golden eyes filled with a murderous intent. Both filled with blood lust and itching to get their hands on each other. They come from a world completely different from Middle-Earth, but why are they here? Did some higher power summon them? And what do they have to do with the company? Could they be the answer to saving the line of Durin? Or will they simply watch the world burn and become the world they're used to?
Author's Note: REVISED! So, here we go again! Another Hobbit fanfic! ^^
Disclaimer: I do not own The Hobbit! All rights belong to J.R.R. Tolkien and Peter Jackson. Any dialogue from the movie or the book belongs to those two men who bought such a beautiful world to life. The only thing I claim as mine is the beginning plot, I've never read any story that has that kind of plot so for now it is mine. The background of the two characters is mine as well. It was a original work I was working on and I thought what would happen if they were thrown into a world different from their own. So! Any grammar errors you see, I apologize and I hope that it was still easy enough to read (and understand) and I will get to fixing it if this story does go further. Enjoy this chapter you lovely readers!
Earth. A once beautiful planet teeming with life everywhere you looked, even in places where no one could reach or see. Deep in the shadows, in the darkest depths of the sea, in forests where none dared to explore, there in places that mankind never dared to touch where creatures that no one thought existed.
For a while, everything and everyone lived in peace, the place was beautiful…a utopia.
But not anymore.
The Earth was barren; lakes and oceans had dried up, forests were burned down, and villages, towns and cities were destroyed. Those that inhabited the world above had discovered something when they dared to explore the unknown, finding creatures that wanted to remain unseen by those that depended on the light of the sun.
Mankind had disturbed the peace of those that stuck to the shadows.
Curiosity led them to the way things were now…for at one point they lived on a planet where everyone was happy. They had overcome the times of war, famine, and disease…but man became greedy. They sought for something more…fought for things that they already had.
It started with one huge find; a creature that was only depicted in folklore. Man was curious about the creature they had found that was said to be a myth…a fairytale people told and wrote about. They began to tamper with the creature, soon finding more and bringing those that lurked in the darkness to light. They then began to experiment on them, having the mindset that they owned them. Thinking that since they had inhabited the planet first, that they had the right to their lives…the creatures were simply treated as property to collect and do with as they pleased. But some of mankind had different views on the creatures…these people wanted to uphold the peace they once had. The creatures they found were put under their protection, this group worked alongside the monsters…accepting the differences, coexisting together to create a better life.
This created an even further gap between mankind…their two different views caused a rift that could not be mended.
And soon…mankind would soon see the error of their ways.
The creatures that were tormented by all the experimentation, those that were branded as slaves began to rebel…to overthrow the humans that ruined their lives. Killing and enslaving them for game.
Man's mistake and greed…cost the lives of many innocent people and the utopia they worked so hard to gain.
A once peaceful world soon became divided into two factions:
The Orthynes faction, those that fought to protect and preserve all and every life on Earth…even those that wronged monster kind sought this group out for protection…relying on them for sanctuary and survival. This faction had monsters under their control, but not as slaves. They fought alongside each other, some monsters had a companion...a bonded that they swore to fight together to bring back the peace.
And then there was the Aralith faction, those that wished to rule and eradicate man, to punish them for all the blood they shed and to make them atone for their sins. This faction was made up of monsters with no humans in power. They only kept them around for one purpose; slavery and hunting for game.
The two factions, for years would be forever at odds…however, this day would be the last. This was the last stand for mankind, the battle to determine the fate of Earth and the human race.
This battle would take place in what the history books called the Pacific Ocean, the two factions faced off against each other. Screams of agony, gasps of pain could be heard all around, blood and dead bodies scattered across the barren ground, swords and guns firing and clashing against each other. It was the biggest battle to ever take place in history.
And above this battlefield, hovering above the bloody carnage were two figures at a stand-off. Both generals from the Orthynes and Aralith faction itching to strike as they prepared for the other to make the first move. The fate of their factions rested on their shoulders. The first to fall, the first to die will determine the future of mankind.
If the Orthynes general were to fall, all life would be enslaved or destroyed, but if the Aralith general were to fall…then Orthynes can restore peace to the Earth once more with the help of their human companions.
The two stood tall, emotionless and calm while both on high alert as they began to analyze each other.
For a few minutes…none dared to move. But this was it, the first attack.
Both generals flew at each other, the intent to kill clear on their face…their determination blazing brightly in their eyes.
Yet…something interesting and unexplainable happened the very moment the two were to clash that caused all the fighting above and below to cease.
Just as the two were about to clash, lightning struck between the generals causing them to separate and drift immediately apart.
The battle down below stopped as well as both factions stared up in amazement at the sudden phenomenon, amazed and curious as to where the sudden bolt of lightning had come from.
Up in the sky, clouds began to swirl at an incredible speed, picking up the bigger it got. Every so often large bolts of lightning would protrude and strike the ground below at a staggering rate. The sudden bolts frightened and scattered everyone on the ground, all running for cover under leftover debris.
The two generals stood tense as they looked up to the sky, wondering what is causing the disturbance. When suddenly the whole sky lit up, the light blinding the two generals and swallowing them whole.
Meanwhile, somewhere in a different part of the universe, in the middle of a forest was a traveling group of people. To be more specific; it was a company of fifteen: A grey wizard, a hobbit and thirteen dwarves riding on top ponies and a horse. This questionable group had just left a peaceful town that was inhabited by men and women.
The grey wizard, who many knew worldwide as Gandalf the Grey, rode at the very front of the group with a dwarf dressed in a blue tunic with a black fur lined coat whose hair was black with streaks of silver. This dwarf was Thorin II Oakenshield, exiled King Under the Mountain. The two were chatting about some sort of adventure of reclaiming a mountain when suddenly...the ground beneath them began to violently shake. The sudden quake startled the animals they rode upon while the group began to look around in confusion.
"What's going on here?" Thorin questioned as he begun to look around with worry.
"An earthquake?" An elder dwarf with a long white beard split at the bottom questioned, this dwarf was named Balin, a dear old friend of Thorin.
"Possibly…" Gandalf mumbled before finally looking up to the sky. "But this does not feel like the Earth is shaking. It's quite possibly...something more."
Suddenly, up above a large opening appeared in the middle of the sky, a swirling black vortex that appeared to get larger and larger by the second. The wind began to pick up, the animals in the area had long scampered off in fear of what's to come.
"What is that?" A tattooed dwarf by the name of Dwalin asked as he glared up to the sky, his hand itching at his sides as one hovered above the handle of his ax.
"I think we'll be finding out very soon Master Dwalin…" Gandalf answered as his eyes were transfixed on the swirling black hole above them.
The vortex suddenly shrunk in seconds before it spat something out. It was barely visible from where the company was, but from what they could tell it was headed in their direction...if it wasn't heading straight at them then it was definitely going to fly past them.
The object was descending fast, and as it flew past them a large gust of wind followed in its wake, the wind was so strong that the company had to hold on to their belongings as the object zipped past them. It flew into several trees before crashing in the distance creating a large gust of wind along with remains of trees kicking up high into the air before slowly settling down.
"How curious...shall we investigate?" Gandalf stated. "And be on your guard everyone."
"Or...we could go the other way." The hobbit who went by the name of Bilbo Baggins suggested, shuffling nervously on his pony. "As curious as I am...we don't know what that thing was! For all we know we're going towards something that could possibly kill us all!"
"That's the problem Bilbo…" Gandalf said as he urged his horse forward. "All of Middle-Earth history tells of anything and everything that has ever happened. And I can honestly say that something like this has never happened before. It's worth inspecting...don't you agree?"
Onward the company followed, quickly heading in the direction the flying object went. It was easy to find...all they had to do was follow the path of destruction and the slight skid marks on the ground.
What they found at the end of the destroyed environment confused everyone even more. It was a creature that even the wizard had never seen before...that no one had ever seen before. No books had ever documented such a creature like that falling out of the sky.
Laying in the center of the large crater was a woman.
This mysterious woman was unconscious, there were cuts and bruises littering all over her body and blood splotches all over her clothes. Her silver white hair was fanned out behind her, out of control and long...but matted with black splotches that made it look unhealthy. The clothes she wore was unusual, and quite possibly in the company's eyes in very inappropriate. If one could describe the outfits she wore...it would be compared to what many in Middle Earth would consider a thief's outfit.
She wore a tight fit black long sleeve shirt with a black corset that had buckles holding it over her body over her long sleeved shirt. The pants she wore was also leather and hugged her legs closely as the boots she wore came up to her knees...though the bottom of the heels were sharp and looked too uncomfortable to wear. Over her shoulder seemed to be a cape that also was spread out behind her. She also wore some fingerless gloves that showed sharp but well-kept nails.
Everything she wore was leather and showed off her curves that caused some of the young ones in the company to blush furiously.
But there was something else that caught the company off guard. Around her pointed ears there seemed to be black scales dotting and making a pattern leading up to what looked to be fin like horns behind her ears, holding close to the side of her face. Behind her were two large black wings that looked twice as big as the woman's body, and every so often it would twitch before going limp in its spot.
"What is it?" One of the younger dwarves, Ori, questioned.
"I...don't know." Gandalf mumbled as he kept his eyes on the creature lying in the center of the crater.
"Let's take a closer look, eh?" A younger brunette dwarf, Kili, said as he nudged his brother Fili, the blond dwarf beside him.
The two were about to jump into the crater before Thorin reached out and took a hold of the two by their collars, preventing them from advancing any further.
"You two will stay here." Thorin grunted as he stood tense, glaring at the creature...preparing to defend should the thing decide to wake and attack.
The mysterious woman didn't look to be waking up anytime soon which caused the grey wizard to worry. With blood oozing continuously from her wounds...surely they would die if it was not properly treated.
"I will go and see if she's alright." Gandalf volunteered as he knelt closer to the edge of the crater.
Though before he could jump into the hole to check on the motionless woman, the ground once again began to shake. This time, the company had to keep a firm hold on the reigns of their steeds as they looked expectantly up at the sky.
The same hole appeared again, this time right above where they stood. The sky had darkened and opened up, the clouds began to swirl before something else came flying out of the center.
The object looked to be spiraling downward before giant wings sprouted from the thing in the sky, opening up and slowing its descent. The thing wasn't close enough for the company to see, but they could see the dark outline of the figure. Something was swaying behind the person, fluidly serpentining left and right, its head was looking frantically in all directions. The person in the sky seemed to be searching for something.
As if it heard the company breathing, their head snapped in their direction and though they could not tell what it was looking at, the company felt a sudden chill run up their spines as it quickly made its way to them.
When it stopped, the wind picked up as the creatures wings flapped with great force, it hovered above the company yet they paid them no mind for their attention was solely on the person behind them. With the creature close enough to see in detail...it was like staring at an exact copy of the woman that was lying unconscious in the crater. Except now they could see more that they couldn't see on the other.
The newcomer had even more revealing clothes than the other, she wore what looked to be a white cropped shirt that showed off her midsection with a leather fur lined jacket draped over her shoulder. She also wore a leather mini skirt that stopped at the middle of her thighs with leather heeled boots going up to her knees. There was a gold looking jewel that peeked out from beneath her white shirt from the center of her chest. This newcomer had black scales as well with pointed ears with fins blending into her black hair that seemed to have a mind of its own as it swayed in all directions. Her hands were covered in black dainty looking leather gloves, but even this woman had cuts and bruises all over her. The company could now see what the thing that was serpentining object was...behind the woman was a long reptilian scaled tail that peeked out from under skirt as it would sometime curl and go still behind her.
The woman's eyes were hypnotizing, the color of gold with thin slits for pupils as it got even smaller the longer she stared at the company.
Her eyes were burning with fury, yet her face was emotionless and expressionless. Yet the moment the woman finally got a glance of the thing behind the company her face instantly changed, now taking on a murderous smile. Adding to the blood splotches it sent another chill down the spins of the dwarves (and the hobbit). Sure the dwarves faced many foes, but never one that looked as dangerous and murderous as the woman floating before them. Her form alone, was no match for the fear that orcs would instill on their prey. She looked like a predator who killed for fun.
"Stand aside." The woman ordered, her voice sickeningly sweet as her grin grew wider. "I'll deal with you after I kill the thing behind you."
"What does she mean by that?" Ori questioned his brother Nori, the dwarf with the three pointed hairstyle.
"Oh for god's sake, are you all daft!" The woman questioned with clear irritation. "I'm going to murder the monster behind you and then I will get to kill you lot."
"We mean you no harm my lady." Gandalf said as he carefully took a step forward to stand in front of the company. "We are peaceful folk, considering the events that just took place...fighting is not the answer. Tell me, where do you come from for I have not seen your kind before."
The woman began to laugh hysterically, her hands clutching her stomach before she wiped the tear from the corner of her eye.
"First off old man, I could care less if you're 'peaceful folk.' And secondly, I don't answer questions asked by lowly, pitiful, squishy...humans." The woman scoffed in disgust. "So, either you move aside and wait your turn or...I deal with you first. I don't care either way."
"We are not from the race of men! We are dwarves you monster!" Dwalin growled out. "And you can't possibly take on all of us at once!"
"Dwarves? Smells like a human to me." The woman shrugged before looking around lazily. "Oh wells, I suppose I'll deal with you first if you're so eager to meet death."
The woman held up her hand, palm facing the company before she smiled an eerie delightful smile.
"A good day to die I suppose." The woman said as a ball of light suddenly formed in the center of her hand, getting brighter and crackling like fire. "I want to say sorry...but I'm not, humans don't deserve the life they're given...the freedom they were born with. So, goodbye people I don't know."
The fire in the woman's hand grew larger, and before Gandalf could negotiate any further a large wall of fire shot towards the group, growing the closer it got to the group.
When it made impact it had caused a loud boom that echoed all around as thick black smoke covered the open field.
"Well...one less pain to deal with." The woman shrugged as she began dusting her hands off on her jacket. "Such a shame really...I didn't even have time to enjoy my kill."
The woman floated closer to where the crater would be, but stopped dead in her spot when she saw a dark shadow as the smoke began to clear.
When the clearing was semi visible, the woman could see someone standing in front of the company. Their hand was outstretched with large black wings unfolded back...creating a barrier for the company who had huddled closer to brace for impact. It was the woman that was seen lying in the crater. Her wings shook out as they retracted, folding against the woman's body as she lowered her hand back to her side.
"Can't go even a second without killing anything can you Victoria?" The woman tisked as she dusted herself off, wincing a bit as she accidentally brushed over one of her wounds. The scaled tail behind her lazily swaying side to side before settling down.
"You should know me by now...human scum need to be eradicated from this world and when they don't comply to my request they need to be dealt with." The woman, Victoria, said with a cheery smile.
"You have no honor what so ever." The woman said with a shake of her head, the statement only causing Victoria to let out a high pitched giggle. "Attacking me when my defenses were down, but...I suppose it's expected from Aralith filth."
"Excuse me?" Victoria scoffed. "Always looking down on us, sick and tired of you Orthynes piece of-"
"And I wonder why…" The woman shot back.
"Oh bite me Eliana!" Victoria growled out.
"Even if I was starving I wouldn't…" Eliana said as she held out a hand, looking back over her shoulder to the company standing behind her, her golden eyes glowing ever so slightly with the pupils now thin slits. "Please, for your safety...stay out of the way."
"Those eyes…" Thorin gasped in slight shock.
"Now, hold on just a second." Gandalf interjected as he took a step forward, the elderly voice causing Eliana to stumble just a bit before she turned to look at the elder man.
"What's wrong?" Eliana questioned.
"I'm sorry to interrupt, but I think you two may be way out of your element." Gandalf said as he gave the woman a slight bow. "My name is Gandalf, Gandalf the Grey."
"Forgive me but I have never heard of you." Eliana mumbled, automatically assuming that the man before her was someone important before she decided to give a slight bow back. "My name is Eliana, General to the faction Orthynes."
"Orthynes...I've never heard of such a place." Gandalf said with a slight hum.
"It's not a place, but an organization whose goal is one of peace." Eliana mumbled. "You're either part of the Orthynes faction or...Aralith."
"You speak of such weird things." Someone from the company mumbled.
"We are from neither...factions my lady." Gandalf said. "Where do you come from might I ask?"
"Excuse me!" Victoria called out as Eliana simply ignored the woman and shook her head.
"Earth...though if you don't know about either factions then something is wrong, we were in the middle of a fight before a black hole opened up above us and a bright light swallowed us whole." Eliana said before lifting her head as she looked to be sniffing around before furrowing her brows in confusion. "The air is less thick...more fresh than what our world is used to...where are we might I ask Gandalf the Grey?"
"Middle-Earth." Gandalf answered.
Before Eliana could question any further her tail had twitched and she quickly pivoted around and summoned a wall of blue fire that surrounded her and the company. A large blast forcefully pushed against the barrier before disappearing causing Eliana to dismiss the wall before glaring up at Victoria who was growling in irritation, her tail twitching furiously from side to side.
"You should pay attention when I'm talking to you!" Victoria growled out as she thrashed her arms around in anger like a little child. "For someone who spouts nonsense about manners and honor, don't you know it's rude to ignore someone who is talking to you!"
"Hence why I'm not ignoring the elder man who is talking to me." Eliana mumbled as she motioned to Gandalf behind her. "You have such a one tracked mind you know that? You would think that the first thing you notice is the air, then to assume that we are not in the same place we once were."
"Whether it's our world or not, so long as you're here...my sole mission is to end you. Without you in the way we can finally have the freedom we rightfully deserve. The humans will pay for all the sins they've committed." Victoria growled out.
"You couldn't kill me even if you tried." Eliana responded out causing Victoria to flinch.
Victoria gritted her teeth before she swooped down toward Eliana, when Victoria was in arm's reach of Eliana the contact sounded like a clash of thunder as Victoria took a hold of Eliana's neck, taking the two of them to the sky.
"Aralith will reign victorious!" Victoria's voice echoed around as the company heard a slight giggling as they watched the fight going on above them.
Eliana quickly got out of the choke hold she was in and in an instant she had unsheathed a large sword that was at her side, bringing it down on Victoria who did a quick dodge to the left...a smile permanent on the woman's face. Victoria looked to be taking great joy in the fight, knowing that she would be killing her enemy while Eliana seemed to have a concentrated look on her face. Though with her movements, Eliana looked to be on the fence and hesitant...as if she wished this fight wasn't going on.
"Gandalf." Thorin voiced out as he cautiously went to stand by the wizards side. "What are they…"
"I don't know Thorin." Gandalf stated as he watched Eliana land on the ground before them, doing a quick back flip to avoid Victoria's fist. When Victoria's fist collided with the ground it created a slight crater in the place Eliana once stood before she rushed at the woman who just kept dodging and blocking the onslaught of attacks from Victoria. "But whatever they are I can tell you this...they will not stop until one of them is dead…"
"Those eyes Gandalf…" Thorin mumbled as the two of them took a step back to avoid blue and red fireballs that had missed their target. "I've seen those eyes once before...only for a second…"
"So have I." Gandalf said as he took a step forward. "I think I should put a stop to this this instant before more damage is done to the environment around us."
Only when the two finally landed with Eliana pinning Victoria to the ground with her sword dangerously close to her neck did Gandalf decide to speak up.
"Enough you two!" Gandalf's voice boomed out, commanding the attention of everyone around as it stopped the actions of the two women as they two looked toward the wizard. "Is fighting really going to solve anything?"
"Here maybe not," Eliana said as she shoved Victoria to the ground and sheathed her sword, standing up straight as she dusted the dirt off her clothes...distancing herself from Victoria as if she were some sort of diseased riddled rat. "But where we come from, our deaths will determine the fate of all mankind."
"What do you mean?" Gandalf questioned curiously.
"That's none of your business gramps." Victoria growled out as she shakily got back to her feet.
"Have some manners when you're speaking to the elderly." Eliana grumbled as her tail twitched once more.
"Hey, I don't know them...nor do I want to and I will not be showing any type of respect to squishy meat bags!" Victoria growled out. "If they don't know what's going on that's their loss! Let them be killed for being factionless."
"They don't know anything because if I'm correct in assuming our factions don't exist, nor does our war and our division." Eliana said calmly. "Honestly, try and use your brain for once and put two and two together."
"You think you're so smart huh…" Victoria growled out, her fists clenching and unclenching at her side.
Eliana made no indication of responding to Victoria for she simply turned back her attention to Gandalf.
"Do you know of a way for us to return back to our time? It is very important that we get sent back urgently. The fate of all rest with us being there to finish the war between our two factions." Eliana stated. "Without me...I fear what will become of my comrades."
"I…" Gandalf looked to be in thought for a moment before letting out a slight sigh. "I'm sorry my lady, I do not have the faintest idea how to return you to your rightful time. There has been no recorded incidents in our books of such an event happening."
"Well, do you know someone who can?" Victoria yelled out, taking a threatening step forward. "I can't stand this place, it reeks of humans…"
"Don't mind her, her kind hasn't grasped the concept of politeness." Eliana mumbled a small apology. "Just learn to ignore her, but if you could kindly direct us to someone who has the ability and power to send us back to where we belong I would be forever in your debt."
"You can take your manners and politeness and shove it where the sun don't shine…" Victoria mumbled as she turned her back to the company and Eliana.
"I...I might know of someone who may have the answers you seek." Gandalf suggested suddenly. "We are actually headed in that direction as well for we have questions that need to be answered as well. We could travel together until we reach the destination since you do not know these parts."
"Are you crazy?" Thorin growled out as he glared up to the wizard.
"Hell no!" Victoria yelled out once more as she whipped around, her tail swishing from side to side furiously.
"Their kind is dangerous!" Thorin said with a glared directed toward Eliana and Victoria. "If their kind is indeed what we think they are...then they are definitely not welcomed."
"And what do you know of our kind?" Victoria growled out, getting right into Thorin's face.
"Your kind is known as the bringer of death and destruction." Dwalin growled out as he came to stand beside his King, his ax held up defensively.
"Dragons are nothing but trouble." Thorin said as he held his head high.
"Hah! For your information dragons are considered rare in our time!" Victoria defended, her arms crossed over her chest as she leaned her weight to one side. "Dragons are the ultimate warrior, born for greatness!"
"I suppose...some could see us as an omen of death...I'm surprised that you know of dragons here." Eliana said a bit taken back before letting out a quiet mumble. "Your world seems so...normal judging by how you humans look."
"We are not men but dwarves!" Kili yelled out in irritation having to repeat something as noticeable as to what race they are.
Eliana looked over the group in confusion before stepping forward, her eyes closed as she began to sniff the two dwarves standing in front of her, the action only causing Thorin and Dwalin to recoil in disgust as Dwalin held up his ax higher and growled at Eliana.
"I will agree that you lot smell differently than any human I've ever met...but not by much." Eliana mumbled with a furrow of her brow. "You're short as well…"
"I will not travel with this group! I can find the place on my own...I will not stoop so low as to depend and travel with humans to find my answers." Victoria said as she turned to leave.
Eliana, in a flash, moved to block Victoria's path causing the woman to let out a snarl, both brandishing their fangs as their eyes glowed a bright gold.
"You will not be going anywhere!" Eliana growled out. "If you're left to your own devices this world will surely burn."
"And who's going to stop me? You?" Victoria scoffed as she attempted to go around Eliana who only continued to block her path.
"I've stopped you before!" Eliana stood tense. "We will travel with this unusual group, then...once we get back to our time we can kill each other to our heart's content."
"So, am I correct in assuming that you will be traveling with us to find your answers?" Gandalf's voice cut through bringing Eliana's attention back to the wizard.
Eliana looked to Victoria with a glare before Victoria let out an irritated sigh.
"Just until we reach where we need to go...then I want nothing to do with you lot." Victoria growled out causing Eliana to let out a sigh of relief.
"So, shall we get going?" Eliana suggested causing Gandalf to smile.
"Just follow us." Gandalf suggested as him and the rest of the company began to mount their steeds a bit hesitantly.
Victoria growled before her wings unfolded behind her allowing her to take off into the sky leaving Eliana to hover just slightly off the ground, the beating of her wings kicking up small dust of dirt under her feet.
"We'll be following you from above." Eliana said emotionlessly as she too took to the sky, leaving the company alone on the ground staring up at the two dark figures hovering in the sky.
"I don't like this Gandalf." Thorin growled out as he urged his pony forward. "Nor do I trust them."
"I don't trust them either, but if they were left alone...who knows what trouble they would get into, not to mention the destruction they could cause if they get too caught up in their fight." Gandalf mumbled as his horse trotted forward. "Better to have them close and in our sight, then set them free into the world to destroy whatever they see…"
"You better hope this decision doesn't kill us Gandalf…" Thorin growled out as his pony came trotting close to the giant horse.
"I hope so too…"
It's hard, well for me at least, to write this without it sounded childish in my eyes. For some reason whenever I write a character that has wings of any kind (now that I notice) makes it sound a little downgraded. So we get a little glimpse and introduction between two groups from completely different worlds. This story is going to be a Thorin x OC story but again, it's going to be a slow build up and it may be overdone with the whole dragon thing, but it was just an idea that came to my head when I was testing out an original story idea (the description that I wrote at the very beginning) and thought it would be an interesting idea to try out.
Also, I'm in the process of writing Once A Rebel, Always A Rebel so that will be out as soon as I can get the events in order. If you want updates, ideas for the inspiration of my characters then I have made a facebook page that you can like and follow: iAltoSax
If you're curious and I caught your interest with this story then follow and favorite to let me know if this is a good idea or not, and leave a little review to let me know how I did or if anyone has any tips on better writing characters with wings better lmfao. Reviews aren't necessary as I have said in previous stories, but it does make me happy and let me know if this is a good idea or not.
Thank you all for taking your time and reading, and I shall see you (hopefully) in the next chapter!
