The next day there was a thick silence in the air the day of the battle. Thorin and Dain were standing ahead of everyone. with Fili, Kili, and me next to them with the rest of the company behind us. "Do you think they will come" Dain asked looking out over the land. "They will come I'm sure of it, now that they have sided with the elves" Thorin said almost growling when he mentioned the elves. the elven king had sided with Bard of lake town. Saying he wanted his heirloom that was his birthright. sadly, Thorin would hear none of it and boarded up our only exit out of the mountain. Thorin was sick and everyone could see it.

I looked over at Fili his long mane and beard making him a lion. he had it swords on his back and his battle ax in front of him leaning on it slightly. Looking ahead hoping that the elves and men wouldn't come and this could all be avoided. I looked back and my head started to feel dizzy and I swayed slightly on my feet. "Onna are you alright?" I heard Fili say now looking at me and catching me by my arms. I close my eyes and shook my head trying to think of anything but throwing up my whole breakfast. "I'm fine my love must have been something I ate" it was a lie but I didn't want to tell him until after the battle something that I would later regret. I was pregnant, Oin had confirmed it I knew Fili would be happy but I couldn't let him go into battle with out me at his side. I decided I would tell him after everything was done and we could rejoice together. I stood back up with Filis help. I looked in to his eyes and leaned my forehead to his. Everyone knew we were together ever since Rivendale when he proclaimed his love to me. "I love you and promise after this no more battles and adventures atleast for a little while" I asked him feeling his chest shake as he chuckle " that's fine i'm sure we will all be able to relax after this. But promise me Tionna whatever happens if it looks like we will lose I need you to run" He looked down at me and rubbed my cheek with his hand. "I promise but that won't happen we will be victorious and Erabor will be back to the great kingdom it once was" he kissed me deep and passionately " I love you Tionna and don't you ever forget that". I smile up at him "And I you Fili till the day I die."

we turned back around when we heard the elvish battle horns and soon followed by Bard's own. " this is it isn't it?" I ask Fili. Taking my hand in his " yes, and don't forget your promise" he said squeezing my hand. " And you don't forget yours we will get over this together and have a life" I say with a smile as Bard and Thranduil armies readied for battle as did Thorin and Dain. the battle of dwarves, elves, and men began. With Dains forces we were winning the battle elves and men were dying left and right. I take my sword and stab it through a elves stomach killing him instantly. as I stand I slash another elf and I start to look for Fili. looking over the battle field I can see Bofur with his hammer and Dwalin with his. Kili was shooting his arrows and then I spot the gold mane of my love. he looks over at me and smiles and I smile back thankful that he in unharmed. then it happened the ground seemed to rumble and I could see something in the distance. everyone man, elf, and dwarf alike stopped and looked at the sky. it was a black mass that seemed to be getting closer and closer. I soon hear one of Thranduils men yell something in elvish and I knew by the sound of his voice it wasn't good. " what is happening what is that in the sky" I heard Kili ask. I continued to look at the sky when my hand was grabbed rougly and I was being pulled from the battle field towards the mountain. I look to see who the had belong to only to be met by Filis stern stair. " you wll stay in the mountain, with Oin and protect the injured do you understand me" he said looking in to my eye. he pulles me toward our makeshift clinic " no I don't understand what is going on?, what is that in the sky?, please Fili tell me" I say with a frantic voice. " its orcs Tionna, they are coming to the mountain and that mass in the sky are giant bats, you need to stay in here its going to get dangerous and I cant stand to lose you, between you , Kili, Thorin, I have to keep you safe please just promise me you will stay" he said looking into my eyes. This was bad very bad I knew the orcs had more men and they never came alone. " Fili I must go with you, I cant let you go out there by yourself unprotected" as I said that there was a large commotion outside and I could hear Thorin calling for Kili, Fili and Dwalin. "you must stay here I have to go, just please stay with Oin and Ori and tend to the wounded. I love you I will come for you when this is all over" he kissed my deeply and before I could say anything else he was gone with his uncle, and brother and comrades.

I stood there lost I never felt so defeated in my life. I knew he was right it was going to get bad but I had to be there with him. " Come now milady there are some men that need water I could really use your help" I heard Oin say behind me. " how can I just let him go in to battle when I know I could be his and his family death" I ask Oin as hot tears began to fell down my face. I was a warrior and a damn good one at that Fili and I had sparred a few times along with Dwalin and once even Thorin and I would hang with them. But that was a happier time and this was war I had to be by Fili " But milady think about your family you ad Fili's I'm guessing you haven't told him." as he said that my hand went to my stomach. I had almost forgot I was pregnant and if something did happen I was carring the heir to the Durin thron. " You have to do whats right and listen to him. he is only trying to protect you and unbenonst to him your child as well" Oin was right I had to protect my child, I wipe my tears fom my eyes and turn to look at him " what can I do".

As day turned to night I could hear the battle raging outside. Both races were taking a heavy loss more men were coming in with different wounds all from the orcs and goblins and trolls. their were both men, elf and dwarf healers coming and gong form each patient some were to far gone and would soon die. others would have lasting scars but would live. each time a new person would come through my heart would stop thinking it was one of the company. As the flap opened again in walk Gandalf blood covering his robes. I ran to him " how is it out there how is Kili, and Fili " I ask desperate to hear that this nightmare would end " they are fine, atleast as fine they could be when fighting a war" I sighed as a weight was slightly lifted from my shoulders I wouldn't be completely at ease till this was over.

as he finished his statement I heard a mighty roar and ran too look out side the tent. I could see Azong the defiler bashing men dwarves and elves alike next to him I could see another orc just large as him. I ran back to a table were my swards a knives were I had to go to fili I had to help. " Tionna where are you going, Fili told you to stay here" I heard Gandalf say how did he know what Fili had said " I don't give a damn I would rather go against his word and help protect him and his kin then to sit back and watch it all crumble around me" I said the Fire in my eyes I strap my last dagger to my side and made my way to the door that lead to the battlefield. Gandalf stopped me before I could make my way out the door " get the hell out of my way old man" I shout " you need to think Tionna, think about what you could lose" he shouted back but I had no time for this I pushed past him and ran to find my kin.

As I make my way battling orcs and goblins alike looking for Fili I made out the brown hair of his brother. I cold see that he was slowly getting overwhelm I took my sword and charged towards. as I slashed with my sword and him with his arrows we soon had all the enemy surrounding us dead. I looked at Kili " where is Fili and are you alright?" I ask " Yes I am fine but shouldn't you be back with Oin in the healers tent I saw Fili bring you there" he said taking his arrows out of and orcs head and putting it back in his quiver. " Yes but I could sit back and do nothing I am warrior not a healer I have to do something and help my kin" I said Kili put his hand on my shoulder " my brother is lucky to have you when this is done I know you will be a good queen when he takes the throne from uncle. I just hope that I can find a women like you and find love like what you and Fili have" he said with a smile. I smile back " I promise I will serve your brother right and I think you already have I can see how you look at the elf guard and can tell that you care deeply for her." his eyes went wide " and don't worry about your uncle im sure this is done he will have different take on elves after this" I say with a smile he smiles back at me " your a good person Tionna. Now I need togo find my uncle and said elf luck and promie you wont die" he sai with a wink " i promise" and with that we went our seperate ways.

I battled my way thethbatle feild looking fo Fili i was starting to becaome frantic i couldnt find him. i made my way up the mountain that hanged above the battlefeild thinking that maybe he went after the other large orc. a i got to the top i could see Fili an the other large orc fightig Fil doading and thrusting his axe at the monster. The orc kept blockng Filis attck and evntully knocked his axe from his hans. Coming down hard on Fil he move out of the way at t secong rollig and taking his sword out from his back. istartedt run and was blocked byan orc tryinto get to Fili. i take my sword and sice thru the frist orc thenhe second. i duck nearly mising my head and spun behind a third orc klling it by sending my swrd thru its back. I looked again and my heart dropped, there in the hands of the orc was fili hanging over the edge saying something in his nasty language. I ran fater then i have ever ran before, before the orc could slit his throut i jumped on his back stabbing his with my dagger from my leg. he threw fili to the ground and wrestaled with me on his back. he threw me off and my head hit a rock. my vision wet fuzzy and by the time i regained my footing the orc was coming cloer an closer to and unconcious Fili. I ran again with what little energy i had left taking another dagger and jumping back on to his back. He threw his head and arms back trying to get me off. we fought trying to get e upper hand on the other, in tha time fli had awoken and was trying to g his surroundings. He looked ovr at he orc and his love battleing it out and comeing dangerously close to the edge. "Tionna?,TIONNA" he yelled.
