Hello! Here is a very tiny prologue. This, the prologue, and possibly the epilogue will be the only parts written in first person. Otherwise the rest of the story will be written in third person.
I promise no Mary-Sues, everything will be explained as the story progresses.
Please feel free to call me out on any mistakes that I make.
I will be doing a little research for this story but most of it will be from the movie verse mixed with my imagination. The chapters will be short. That's my style of writing fan fiction.
This story will explore the possibility of Smaug joining the dwarves taking back Erebor and how events would unfold. There will also be chapters about Smaug's past before claiming Erebor.
Hegda is Smaug, Smaug is Hegda. They are one in the same. So technically she is not an original character. Just an altered version of the dragon we all love.
Prologue: Smaug's Decision
People think that I am dead but they couldn't be more wrong. I am very much alive and they have seen me every now and then. They think that I am male but they are also wrong about that. I walk amongst them as one of their own, gathering news of abroad. Apparently, that puny dwarf king was killed in battle by a pale orc and the young prince proved himself as the new leader. Ha! He will never rule as king under my mountain!
Lately I have been sensing a power growing somewhere to the south, south-west. A power that I have not sensed in many years, one that is all too familiar to my kind. It is a power that I both fear and hate. I walked amongst the people of Lake Town to gather information on what was happening but they didn't seem to even notice.
The latest news that I heard was the most disturbing. Word has it that the dwarf "king" is gathering a band together to take my mountain and gold away from me. No! I will not allow that!
I paced the inside of my abandoned mountain kingdom for days, coming up with a plan. I came across a statue of the now so-called king. He was quite handsome for a weak little dwarf. Wait! What was I thinking? This was my enemy! I will kill him and his companions! I burned the statue with my fiery breath and then smashed it with my teeth.
I was afraid to leave my gold unguarded but I was the only one who knew a secret passage into the mountain. I would leave some traps that would slow intruders down and warn me that they were trespassing. I was also afraid to travel in my other form. It left me more vulnerable to that power I so feared. But I would go. I was bored and needed something to do. I would not allow anyone to steal my precious gold. I changed into my human form and searched for the appropriate armor. After I found what I was looking for I left the mountain.
I will join them, find out their plans and slay them when they arrive. That king, Thorin Oakenshield, will watch his precious people fall under my claws before the end of his days! I will slay them all!
