I obviously do not own The Hobbit. So, just testing the waters with this one. This is going to be a Durin-fest. (Because, c'mon, there can never be enough of the Durins.)
Billa Baggins was quite happy in her life as a respectable heiress. She dealt with the usually jerks after her money, but she did know how to handle them quite well. After all, though no one knew it, she had spent half her childhood being a burglar. And no one knew how to spin the truth quite like she did. Of course, she had stopped theiving when she had turned thirteen and her father had found out exactly what her mother's family, the Tooks, did for a living. Her mother, since she loved Bungo Baggins so very much, agreed to withdraw herself and her daughter from the family business.
After she had done this, most of the other Tooks decided to get out as well. Jim Brandybuck got himself in the seat of Mayor of New York. (Something he had his daughter, Bonny, a skilled computer hacker, to thank for.) Rob Took went and died, leaving his daughter, Belladonna, a small fortune. The Baggins took in their newly orphaned niece and as a result that line of the family became honest as well.
Well, Belladonna convinced them that she was hones. Billa knew that her cousin still got out every now and then to do the driving for some of the family. Everyone wanted Belladonna Took to drive them away from the scene of the crime. Never once had she been caught. On the side at school, Belladonna also made false i.d.'s. Though, she was completely careful with it. No one ever knew that it was Belladonna who made the false i.d's. Even Billa had no proof. Since Billa and Belladonna went to a very up-town all girls school for the very wealthy, Belladonna made quite a profit. She invested this (and due to Bonny's hacking skills) doubled her fortune with investing.
Bonny Brandybuck was the only one alive with both parents of the three girls and the middle one at the ripe age of 22. Since her father was a mayor, her life was one of a socialite, since she graduated college by 16.
Billa, the oldest at 23, shared her cousins' traits and was small and very pretty in a simple way. This was definitely inherited from her mother's side, because the three cousins all looked alike enough to be sisters except for their colouring. Billa had light brown curls that reached just past her chin which she rued of every managing and soft blue eyes. The 21 year old, Belladonna straightened her black curls so that they hung to the middle of her back and chocolate brown eyes. Bonny had blonde curls that came down to just brushing her shoulders.
Billa owned a town-house. Due to the combined wealth of her father and mother (which Bonny had invested very wisely) she did not have to (and chose not to) work. Bonny lived with Billa and Belladonna but was often out due to her social commitments. Belladonna, quite possibly the richest out of the three of them, worked at a bar. She definitely did not have to, but (Billa attributed it to becoming addicted to the fast paced life of a getaway driver) was very easily boredd by sitting at home or by living a socialite, though she had more than enough opportunities to go out with Bonny.
This was the comfortable (and respectable) life that a certain Mr. Ian Gandalf chose to so completely disrupt.
Leave a review if you think I should continue this. Or not. Pwetty pwease.
