AN: I AM BACK! :D Hopefully it's a bit of an improvement on length... :P Thanks you guys for all the reviews! I was stunned! :D
huntressofartemis101: Glad you liked! I didn't particularly enjoy writing Fili's anger, since I love them both too much for either to get hurt that way, but it had to happen! Enjoy!
jaymzNshed: ANGST ABOUNDS! XP Me neither, I can't really imagine them hating each other, and I'm the one writing the thing! :P Thank you for reading it anyways!
Akeea: I'm sorry your heart broke, I think mine did too... I'll try to make the chapters just a bit lengthlier, but I'm finding it a little difficult. The last chapter I wrote for my 'Nobody, Somebody' killed me, so I think I might stick to shorter chapters for all my stories in the future. Thanks for the advice though! Aw, thanks for the compliment! I'm glad you like it that much!
Mira Meliandra: Yes, I'll be looking into that further into the future... I broke my heart too! Soon enough for you? ;) Enjoy!
That Fantasy Junkie 96: Nope! I was not... ;) Glad you like!
leggomygreggo2: Kili is next chapter, sorry. But hope you like this one!
Guest (April 24): Thanks! I'm glad you liked the idea! Enjoy! :D
BookLover963: I'm SO GLAD you love it! And yes, SHAME FILI! SHAME! X( I hope you love this chapter! (And yes, I love drama as well :P)
Fizzydrop2000: HERE IT IS! Only problem is: KILI'S STILL IN THE FOREST! I hope to get next chapter up soon! In the meanwhile, here's a chapter for you to chew on briefly.
At around supper time, Thorin and Dis came back. Dis prepared the rabbit that Thorin had caught, and had set the table. Thorin had been resting in a chair when he realized that someone was missing.
"Where's Kili?"
"Hm? He must've gone out to play. You know how he likes being outside in the forest." replies his sister.
"Lad gets more like an elf everyday. One day he's going to ask me to marry one."
Dis rolled her eyes and set the bowl of vegetables on the table.
"Fili! Dinner time!"
Fili came out with a face resembling Thorin's scowl after a bad day at the forge. "What's the matter azyûng?"
"Nothing."
Thorin rolled his own eyes. Disobedient boy probably got into another fight today. He would get his after. For then, at least one peaceful dinner.
It wasn't until the rabbit began to look kind of bare and lacking in meat that Thorin began to really worry about his nephew.
"Kili's been much too long. The rabbit is halfway done. Do you know where he is Fili?"
Fili flinched almost imperceptibly, but Thorin was able to catch it. He narrowed his eyes.
"You fought again today didn't you?"
Fili shrugged.
"Answer me boy! Did you fight with your brother?"
"Yes." Fili said quietly.
"What happened?" Thorin stood up angrily. These boys will never learn!
"He knocked over my picture of Adad and ripped it in half. And then I got angry with him."
"What made him run away? What did you say to him?"
Fili was getting scared. If his uncle found out... Oooooh.
"Mm nothing." said Fili, and covered his face.
"Fili." growled Thorin in a warning. "What. Did. You. Say."
"I told him that he was a disgrace, that I wished I was an only child, that I hated him and I never wanted to see him again." said Fili in a low voice, anticipating Thorin's wrath.
Dis gasped. Thorin stared wide-eyed at his nephew.
"You said that to him?"
"Yes."
"By Mahal." breathed Thorin, and went to put on his stuff.
"Where are you going?" asked Dis worriedly.
"I'm getting a search party!" replied Thorin, running out the door to friends' houses. He went to Balin and Dwalin's first, knocking
urgently on the front door. Balin opened it.
"Balin, forgive me for interuppting your meal."
"No bother laddie. What is it?"
"Kili's run away."
"We'll be right there." said Balin, turning and rushing in to tell Dwalin and get his gear.
"Meet at the Ur's house."
Thorin turned and ran to every one of his friends' houses, no one hesitating to grab their things and join him. That's what they each would've done if Kili had been their own child. The only one who wasn't able to go was Dori, who had to take care of Ori, because he was sick. Nori went however, being a representative for his own family.
Back at the Durin home, Fili was getting his.
"You sir, are going to sit there without until your comes back with Kili. And if anything has happened to your younger brother, I'm going
to take away your swords, and you'll have to find your own way to get new swords. Understood?" Dis said angrily, though really on the inside, she was shocked and hurt as to what Fili had said.
"Yes Amad."
"Mahal help me. Disgrace! What kind of older brother says that to his younger brother?" Dis muttered as she went to a chair by the fire, sat down and rocked back and forth, crying the silent tears of a mother who wished for peace in her family.
AN: THORIN TO THE RESCUE! Well, that's the chapter for today! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE ONCE MORE FOR ALL YOUR TREMENDOUS SUPPORT! I FEEL SO HAPPY! MUCH LOVE TO EVERYBODY! Please tell me what you thought, and I hope to have next chapter up soon! HAVE A GRRRRRREAT REST OF THE WEEK!
TONS of Love and Starlight,
