Settarah
"Give her 2 more ccs of Saline and tell the blood bank we'll need 3 pints of A-B negative." Said some voice I didn't recognize. I woke up in a strange bed, with strange people in the room. Then some idiot decided to shine a light in my eyes. I squinted and tried to get away from the light. "Hello, my name is Dr. Meyers, and I will be your doctor today. Can you tell me your name and how old you are?" Said the Doctor as she put away the light. "My name is Settarah Greenleaf, and I am 18 years old." I say as I feel tears on my cheeks as I remember what happened to Thorin. "I know it hurts, but it won't hurt much once the surgery is done." "Surgery? Is it that serious?" I said as I tried to get up. I almost succeeded, but the nurses forced me back down. Then the doctor gave me something to drink, and I drank it. A few minutes later, everything went black.
Thorin
I woke up near the brink of death, and I saw Gandalf kneeling down to Settarah, shaking his head. "Such a long life ahead." He said shaking. I got up, and felt her pulse. There was nothing there. The rest of the company shook their heads, but I felt mixed emotions. I felt sadness and anger, and misery and betrayal. "Come on, we need to move." I said as I made for the way down. "Thorin, look." Said Balin with tears in his voice. "The lonely Mountain." I breathed. The rest of the company looked in wonder and awe, including Gandalf, so I kissed Settarah one last time. I will remember that kiss. I hoped that she would wake up, but she didn't. As soon as we got down from the carrock, the earth started crying. Lightly, but heavy enough that I could cry unnoticed. Then, Gandalf made us run from who-knows-what. Then I saw it. The king of all bears. The company was being idiots, so I unlatched the door and we ran inside. The bear tried to get in, but we latched the door from the inside. "What was that thing?" I asked as I sat down. "That," said Gandalf, "Is the owner of this very house we are seeking refuge in."
Settarah
"I wonder when she's going to wake up, Tony." Said a female voice. "The doctor said in a few hours, Kate. So just relax, and go to the beach. I hear there's a nude beach a few miles away, so you can get rid of the tan lines." Said the male voice. "You've been there, haven't you Tony?" Said the female voice. "Only on vacation, and that time it was on accident." Said The male voice. "Sure,Tony. An accident." Said the female voice. I guess they saw me move, so they came in and introduced themselves. "I'm Kate, and this is Tony. We're from NCIS, and you've been placed under protective custody under us." Said Kate as she elbowed Tony. They reminded me of Thorin and me in Rivendell, so I kind-of giggled. They both looked at me, and I stopped. "Where am I, Kate?" I said as I looked at needles in my arms with suspicion. "You're in Bethesda, in Washington D.C." Said an unfamiliar voice. "My name is Leroy, but you can call me Gibbs." He shook my hand, and sat down. "What's your name. If you don't remember it, that's okay." Said Gibbs as he looked at my ears. "My name is Settarah Greenleaf, and I'm 18 years old." I said with a thickness in my voice. "Run that through the database Kate and see if you get any hits. Tony, sort through evidence with Abby." Said Gibbs as he grabbed an inkpad and some paper. "What's that?" I said with suspicion. "Relax, it's just a fingerprint kit. We need your prints in order to filter out yours, and find out how tried to murder you." Said Gibbs as he took my fingers one at a time and took my prints. Then the doctor came in, and he discharged me. Three hours later, I was walking and eating what they call egg drop soup. It was very good, and when we were done, Tony came and picked us up from where they call Central Park. After about 20 minutes, we came to a giant building that touched the sky. "This is NCIS headquarters, where you will be staying until we arrest the person that tried to kill you." Said Tony as he helped me out of the car.
