Racing back to the rooms, we all get into dressy clothes. I get into the dark green dress, liking how it feels against my skin. While putting on the slippers, I'm glad that the dress is wrist-length, since it hides the cast on my left arm.

Finally, because of all the talking, I finally know who everyone is and what they are. I was a little puzzled about there being dwarfs, a wizard, and a hobbit. That makes me happy so I don't accidentally embarrass someone with my few nicknames.

The Safe man is Kili and the Axe man is Dwalin. The other dwarves are Thorin, Fili, Balin, Oin, Gloin, Dori, Nori, Ori, Bifur, Bofur, and Bombur. The wizard is Gandalf the Grey. And the Hobbit, the littlest man, is Bilbo Baggins.

Stepping out of the bedroom, I see everyone waiting for me, all in new clothes. Kili offers me his left arm, staring at me, amazed. Blushing I take it, noticing how handsome he looks in his green clothes that matches my dress.

Haldir walks up to us. He smiles at me, nodding his head. I smile at him, happy that I'm with new friends and old. Gesturing for all of us to follow him, he leads the way down the stairs, to the huge dining hall that can seat five hundred.

"Lady Audrey, please accept this seat." Elrond says, gesturing to the chair to his left before gesturing to his right. "King Thorin, this seat."

My eyes look at Kili, wondering if he's allowed to sit up there and if not, where we can sit together. He nods up at the head table, staying one step beside me, not letting go of my arm. He sits down closest to Elrond.

Elves begin serving lots of vegetables and some meat. Haldir smiles and waves from his seat, that is at a long table along the left. The rest of the dwarves, the hobbit, and the wizard are along the long table along the right.

"Lady Audrey, I was wondering if you would not mind having some of my men guarding you on your trip." Elrond asks, almost like he's asking the weather, though there is a hint of something else.

"Um…I'm not entire sure. You will have to ask Thorin." I answer, not trusting Elrond but trusting Thorin much more.

"What do you think, King Thorin." Elrond asks Thorin, after briefly looking at Haldir who is smiling with amusement.

Kili sneakily slips his greens onto my plate. I smile, trying not to giggle but failing though it's quietly. Kili notices, smiling and bumping my arm with his closest shoulder. I smirk, rolling my eyes before putting his greens back on his plate along with all of my greens.

His face is hilarious, staring at his not huge pile of greens. It's hilarious and I can't stop the laughter from boiling over. He pouts, turning to his uncle, who is looking at us with an exasperated look on his face. Elrond is looking amused.

"Sir, the small council of Wizards will be arriving next week. They have lots of things to talk about." A male says to Elrond, stopping my laughter.

Suddenly Deven is snuggly gripping my neck, straddling my waist. He shoves me back under water, smirking happily. My hands claw at his hand, trying to get free, not wanting to die. He brings me back up, letting me gasp for air.

"Stupid, Bitch. I knew that you would wake up if you almost died." Deven pauses. "Now, you will watch as we kill you."

He forces me back down under the water. I struggle, hands and feet kicking out. He grins down at me as the others gather around us. Rylie yanks off my shirt and pants, leaving me in my bra and underwear. I scream out, water filling my mouth.

Blackness wraps around me, trying to engulf me. I can feel everything but my body is numbing. Terrified, I struggle to force it back, not liking it. It's thick and heavy, suffocating and drowning me. A force presses down on my body.

Suddenly I'm on a leafy floor, gasping for air. My lungs hurt, feeling scratched from all the water. Water is still all over my body, sending chills zooming up and down my spine. I am trying to figure out where I am.

A soft blanket is draped over me. I blink, feeling safe, wrapping the blanket tighter around me. An arm sets on the blanket, wrapping around my shoulders, but I cringe away, unsure if it's Them trying to be nice or my Kili.
