Hey. I'm back with another all new exciting chapter of Strictly Bilbo. This one will be set during his 111 birthday party. Where Bilbo is telling a story to some of the children. Contains a flashback to his journey during The Hobbit. I hope you all enjoy.

Bilbo was just about to sit down and relax when a whole crowd of his younger relations and friend came up to him. The younger one in the group sat around him.

"Tell us a story Bilbo," suggested one of his younger cousins.

"A story?" he asked. "I thought you'd all be begging for more of Gandalf's fireworks."

This had the reaction that Bilbo wanted. Especially after the trick Merry and Pippin had pulled with the dragon firework.

"We want to hear the story about the dragon again," cried another little girl, Annabella Bolger, if he remembered correctly.

"I think that one is over told my dear," said Bilbo. "How about a different?"

The girl nodded.

Bilbo thought for a moment. Then a memory came to him. A funny sort of memory. One he hadn't thought of for some time.

"I will tell you about the mishap that happened when my friends Fili and Kili tried to cook for our company," he told the group.

An audible groan was heard from the crowd.

"Trust me it will be a funny story."

The group silenced and waited for Bilbo to begin the tale.

*Flashback*

Bilbo sat down after a long hard day of walking. These adventure things sure did take a lot out of a person. But the day was far from over yet.

"Fili, Kili," called Thorin, "you two will make our evening meal."

An audible groan went up from the surrounding dwarves.

"Do they have to?" asked Ori. "The last time they cooked we all almost had food poisoning. Thank God for Oin."

"Yeah laddie," said Dwalin.

"I will not be argued with," said Thorin. "Fili and Kili will cook. And Mr. Baggins will help them."

"Mr. Baggins will what?" asked Bilbo finally looking up noticing most of the dwarves giving him looks of consolation.

"You heard me Master hobbit. You will be helping Fili and Kili make dinner for the group."

"Great," said Kili.

"Come along Master Baggins," said Fili as they both dragged him off to gather food and start a fire.

"So what are we going to cook?" asked Kili. "Food just doesn't fall from the sky."

Fili looked around. Not seeing a thing in sight.

"How about that?" Bilbo asked pointing to a bunch of rabbits lazily hopping around.

"No!" cried Kili. "You can't cook my new pet bunnies."

"Kili," said Fili, "you don't have a pet bunny."

"I do know. And neither of you will be cooking them." Kili hurriedly ran around gathering his 'pet bunnies' and putting them in his bag. "There all safe now."

"How about those geese over there?" Fili asked.

"Okay," said Kili. "Go kill them."

"You go kill them," said Fili.

"No. You go kill them."

"No. You."

"How about I kill them?" asked Bilbo.

Both dwarves turned to Bilbo knowing he had yet to prove himself to their uncle. They both smiled deviously. "Alright," said in one voice. "Go ahead."

Bilbo charged at the birds and they scattered."

"Darn it," exclaimed Bilbo.

A few chuckles followed this exclamation.

"It looks like you boys need some help," said Gloin effortlessly shooting down one of the birds.

"Thank you Gloin," all three said in unison.

"I think maybe Gloin and Ori should take over from here," said Thorin.

Everyone, including Bilbo, sighed in relief. And a two or so hours later they had a fine dinner set before them.

"And Fili, Kili, and I were never asked to cook the company meal again," Bilbo finished. "I can still hear the chuckles from the others as I tried to kill those geese."

Bilbo shook his head as the faces of the two young dwarfs came to his mind yet again. And when everyone had gone to get more food or drink he said as if to himself, "I wish you could both be here my dear friends. I wish you could both be here."
