A Fan fiction that takes place after the Hobbit and some points during the War of the Ring. I hope I do well on this story seeing how it is my first one on this site.

All rights belong to the creator of the series J. R. R. Tolkien i own nothing except my OC Adelpha Plus others that come later in the story.

I am unsure how this will go but please let me know what you think :D p.s bold text is old Bilbo and Frodo taking about the story when it's in the past.

There is some violence in this chapter thanks to Orcs.

Bilbo was fast asleep in his bed dreaming a peaceful dream until the smell of food and the rays of the sun light woke him up.

'Food?' this thought hit him hard as his eyes flew open, he sat up, got out of bed and rushed to the kitchen area where he found Adelpha.

"Adelpha? Whats going on?" he asked as he looked around his kitchen, it didn't look in disarray nor did it look like a storm had gone through it.

"Oh good morning glad to see you up and moving I made you some breakfast its in the other room" said Adelpha as she smiled. Bilbo raised an eyebrow at this, unsure of what to say he walked to the dining room where he saw that she had indeed made him breakfast.

"Well go on then I'm sure your hungry after all you didn't anything last night"

Bilbo looked at her questioningly "and um what about you aren't you going to eat too?" he asked remembering the condition she was in.

"I've already eaten you see I have been up since the sun rose so I thought I'd make something to eat."

"Oh...well..thank you" said Bilbo as he turned to go into the other room, taking a spot at the table and eating.

'Well she is right about one thing' he thought as he chewed his food ' I am hungry.'

"Oh! by the way " said Adelpha as she walked into the dining room with a cup of tea for him "a strange man happened to drop by earlier."

"A strange man?" he asked sipping some tea "what do you mean?"

"Well he was a very interesting fellow ..a bit odd when I said good morning to him" at that statement Bilbo slightly choked on his tea a bit.

"When you mean by odd do you mean he asked you several different questions after you said good morning to him?"

"Why yes he did actually oh and he also said he would be back later since it appeared that you weren't up yet" said Adelpha as she smiled. Bilbo knew the strange man she was talking about it was Gandalf , Gandalf the Grey but what could he be doing here now? Bilbo knew he would come to visit but he didn't think it was time for another this confused him very much.

"So she met Gandalf?"

"Yes Frodo she did unknowingly of course to her I'm sure he was just a strange old man but who am I kidding I'm sure she thought we were all a bit strange"

"What happen next?"

"Ah well you see what happens next is what set the course for our adventure together across Middle Earth"

After Breakfast Bilbo thought it would be best to try and see if Adelpha could recall anything if he took her back to the spot where he found her.

"And here we are" he said as he stood in front of tree "this is where I found you or more like this where you fell from." Adelpha looked at the spot where the tree limb was and then looked up at the tree. Bilbo could see that she was trying to remember something if anything!

"Well?" he asked as he watched her continue to scan the area around the tree "nothing" she replied with a frown as she walked over to the tree to touch it.

Bilbo sighed. Well there went that idea along with others that he thought that might have worked.

Adelpha walked around the tree before walking back to Bilbo and standing next to him.

"So you got nothing from the tree then?" he asked her as they made their way back to his home.

"No I'm sorry I really did try" said Adelpha sounding quite sad over the fact that she couldn't remember anything.

"Oh don't worry about it my dear we will figure something out" said Bilbo as they reached the house.

"Um why is the gate open I thought it was closed?"

Bilbo saw this too and found it to be strange, he then looked up so see that his front door was open as well. "What in the?" Bilbo hurried up to the door and opened it walking in he went straight to the living area with Adelpha far behind him. Closing the door Adelpha saw a grey hat on the rack from the door "hmm now this seem familiar" she said looking the hat over.

Bilbo made his way into the living room to see an old friend looking into the fireplace.

"Gandalf!"said Bilbo with excitement in his voice.

"Bilbo Baggins! ahh pleasure to see you again my friend" said Gandalf as he hugged his old friend "how are you and what happen to the young miss I saw this morning?" he asked staring at his friend questioningly.

"Ah well if you must know-"

"Mr. Bilbo! I think I know who's in the house" stated Adelpha as she walked into the room with the hat, looking up from it she could see that she was a bit late to the party "oh I guess you already know huh..oops."

-later that evening-

"So Bilbo do you mind telling me where you met this kind young lady?" asked Gandalf as Adelpha handed him wine while she gave Bilbo his tea.

"Look I know what your thinking and it's not like that, I met her when she fell out of a tree" said Bilbo as he put emphases on the last part.

"I see so then dose the young miss have a name?"

"Adelpha" replied Bilbo as he drank some of his tea

"Hmm Adelpha meaning sister how interesting" commented Gandalf as he took a sip of his wine.

"Indeed now Gandalf I must ask why are you here?"questioned Bilbo as Adelpha walked back into the room. Gandalf looked at his friend before chuckling to himself.

"My dear Bilbo am I not aloud to come visit even when I happen to be in the neighborhood?" asked Gandalf as he smiled "and besides I have a few questions I'd like to ask you."

"Questions? what questions?" asked Bilbo confused

"In due time Bilbo..all in due time" stated Gandalf as he drank some more of his wine.

It was a few hours later and Adelpha had grown tired though it was fun talking to Gandalf her eyes couldn't stay open anymore she bid them both good night and headed off to sleep.

After they were both sure that Adelpha had gone to bed Gandalf got to the serious matter at hand.

"This child does she know anything else about herself or where she is from Bilbo?"

"No I fear she suffers from amnesia I tried earlier today to see if maybe I could trigger something and it just blew back into my face" said Bilbo as he leaned back into his chair exhaling a long sigh.

Gandalf sat there for a moment think about something before he spoke again "we should not lose all hope" he said as he took a drag form his pipe. Bilbo looked at his old friend questioning him "and why shouldn't we?" Gandalf smiled at his hobbit friend "because I believe we might know someone who can help us."

That morning after they had eaten Bilbo told Adelpha that they were going on a trip to see a friend who might help them.

-a few days later pass the last bridge near trollshaws-

Bilbo sat down on a rock to rest they had been traveling for a couple of days now, course walking did not bother him one bit but he could tell Adelpha was growing board of it in fact he was beginning to think that she was just plain board period, she had stopped asking question a day ago which was nice but it concerned him it's not like she stopped talking she did say a few things every now and again or maybe she commented on a few things but something wasn't right.

Night soon fell and they had to make camp in cave near Trollshaws Bilbo wasn't all to pleased with this he even tell Gandalf uneasy but they had no choice. They soon set up a fire to keep themselves warm soon after Adelpha fell asleep leaving Bilbo and Gandalf on watch.

"There is no need to worry Bilbo" said Gandalf as he smoked from his pipe. Bilbo looked at him quizzically.

"What do you mean?" he asked as he turned to look at the grey wizard.

"What I mean is there is no need to worry about Adelpha, I saw that you grew concerned after she stopped asking her questions which is normal but I assure you there is no need to worry, Adelpha is merely thinking is all, lost in her our mind trying to figure things out on her own I'm sure" stated Gandalf as he looked out in to the dark wilderness before him.

"Really no need for worry? well I'm sorry to say this Gandalf but I think I'll continue to worry until I know that she will be alright" replied Bilbo as he stood up and walked over to Gandalf.

"And why do you say that Bilbo? What reason could you possibly have to make you worry so much about her?" questioned the grey wizard

Bilbo figured sooner or later he would tell Gandalf about the condition he found her in. "Look Gandalf when I found her she was just-" Bilbo's words were cut short when the sound of a horn filled the air.

"Gandalf!" whispered Bilbo as he saw his sword in his travel bag turn blue.

"Orcs!" gasped Gandalf "quickly Bilbo wake Adelpha we must hurry from here."

Bilbo rushed over to Adelpha's side shaking her "Adelpha! Adelpha! please wake up we got to hurry Orcs are coming!"

After much shaking Adelpha awoke to hear the sound of the horn again only much closer.

"Quickly! now both of you! Bilbo put out that fire now!" shouted Gandalf.

Bilbo Quickly put out the fire grabbed his bag and pulled Adelpha along with him.

The three ran as quickly as the could while hearing the horn along with the sound of angry beasts. Quickly they made their way to an open area with rocks and flat land. The sun was slowly rising and the could see what the beast were.

"Warg's" breathed Bilbo as he saw the beasts coming forward.

"Quickly you two this way!" shouted Gandalf as he ran for a large rock " up the rock you two hurry now!"

Both Bilbo and Adelpha hurried up the rock with Gandalf behind them. They went up as high as they could yet the Warg's continued there attack trying to climb up the rock to get the prey they were chasing.

"What are these things!?" yelled Adelpha as one Warg jumped up trying to snap at her which made her scream loudly.

"Warg's horrible beasts that are under the control of Orcs." yelled Gandalf and as if on cue five Orcs on Warg backs came from forest before them. Bilbo saw this as well and looked to Gandalf with the look of 'what do we do?'. Gandalf looked at Bilbo then smiled as to reassure him that everything was fine. But everything soon turned out not to be fine the cloak that Adelpha had been wearing was caught by a Warg in which he pulled on causing her to fall back.

" Mr. Bilbo!" she shouted as she was pulled back her head dangling off the side.

"No! No! No!" shouted Bilbo as he grabbed a hold of her hand trying to pull her back but it was in vain cause the Warg pulled harder causing her to fall back onto a ledge much closer to the Warg's.

Now everything seemed to be in disarray the Orcs were approaching their speed gaining and Adelpha was now lower level to the Warg's "Just a little more" mumbled Gandalf as he watched the sun rise slowly. During all this Bilbo was doing everything in his power to help Adelpha back up but every time she would jump up and try to grab his hand she would miss.

"Come on just a bit higher!" shouted Bilbo as Adelpha tried once more and this time successfully grabbing Bilbo's hand "Ah! I got her! Gandalf quick help me here!"

Gandalf turned around grabbing a hold of Adelpha's arm and helping Bilbo pull her up. Once up they all could see that the Orcs were much closer now "what do we do Gandalf?!" asked Bilbo as he readied his sword but Gandalf stopped him. Bilbo looked up at him confused until he heard the sound of another horn this one much different from the Orcs horn.

"Who dose that sound belong to?!" asked Adelpha as she looked around for the source of it.

"The Elf's my dear but not just any Elf's no these are the Elf's of Rivendell" said Gandalf as the horn grew louder causing the Warg's surrounding them to flee and soon out of the clear behind them five horse riders appeared heading past the rock and after the Warg's slicing their heads clean off or stabbing them right into the skull. The Orcs of Warg back soon started to flee as well into the forest with the five riders behind them.

What were a couple pf minutes felt like forever soon the five riders returned four of them stopping in front of the rock while another rode back past them. Once Gandalf , Bilbo and Adelpha were down one of the riders approached Gandalf.

He started speaking in some strange tongue that Adelpha couldn't understand "It's elvish Adelpha" said Bilbo as looked at all the other riders.

"Really?" she asked which Bilbo responded with a nod.

Soon the rider that had left before returned with another one. This one was different for he didn't wear a helmet like the others, he had long brown hair and seemed very stern and noble, you could also see his face and by the looks of it he seemed rather confused and concerned.

"Mithrandir? mani ier lle sinome ten'?" asked the leader quizzically (Gandalf? what are you here for?)

Gandalf just looked at him and let his eyes lead over to Adelpha who was standing next to Bilbo.

"Re?" he asked (she?)

Gandalf just nodded his head.

"I see well why don't we escort you three back to Rivendell where we will have more time to talk" said the leader as ordered his men to allow them to ride with one back to Rivendell.

Oh my this took forever! so much talking I'm sorry I hope there won't be more more of that but I make no promises. So if like this chapter please leave a review and tell me what you think. Thanks :D
