Sorry about the huge mistake in this chapter. I didn't remember that I already had Kili and Audrey having a soul-bond in an earlier chapter. So I changed some of this chapter. Hope you like the new non-mistake chapter.
Kili's POV:
Everyone started panicking when Audrey faded into a black mist. Kili tried to touch her but his hand went right through the mist. The other dwarves, Gandalf, Bilbo, and Haldir gathered around the mist, wondering what's going on.
Suddenly she turns back into her corporal form though she is in her bra and underwear and soaking wet. She falls off the chair, onto her hands and knees. Water gushes from her lungs as she gasps for air in a horrible choking sound.
Haldir, the only person wearing a cloak, drapes it over Audrey. She sits back on her heels, still staring at the floor, wrapping the cloak around her tighter. Kili just wants to hold her close, not wanting her to get hurt again.
As Kili wraps his arm around her, she jerks away from him. It hurts but he knows that she probably doesn't know it's him, hopefully. Her sapphire eyes, shinning with tears, slowly look up. They are unfocused, letting her see something else.
Slowly her eyes focus on Kili. She sobs, before lunging at him, wrapping her arms around his waist. His arms wrap around her blanketed back, holding her snuggly. His eyes turn to Thorin, then Gandalf, wondering what's happening.
"It's horrible. They were drowning me. Please don't let Them get me again." She begs, before falling into a deep sleep.
"What is going on with her?" Thorin demands of Elrond, not wanting to see his nephew hurt or fade away if Audrey dies.
"I do not know. This has never happened before." Elrond explains, agitated that he doesn't know something, wanting to do something.
"I have heard of something." Gandalf begins, only continuing when everyone is looking at him. "Her body must still be alive in her time, though in a coma. When she fades out, she's back in her time. They could also be using magic."
"How do we stop it? If it happens again, she could be killed." Kili demands, ice coming through his voice showing how serious he is.
Everyone can tell that he will do anything to keep Audrey by his side, even something dangerous. He is wrapped around her finger and doesn't care, only caring about what she thinks. She is the most important thing in his world now.
"It must be magic because a soul-bond would keep her here, unless it's something totally different." Gandalf is muttering to himself, puzzled.
"Uncle." Kili pleads, looking at Thorin, sounding heartbroken, scared of Audrey being taken from him, knowing he won't live if that happens.
"Balin, you remember our history better than me. What do you remember of the First Dwarf and his soul-bond?" Thorin demands.
"She came from the future. When she died, they said she went back to the future, probably when she was the same age as when she arrived in the past." Balin explains.
Audrey becomes the black mist again. Strangely she stays in the same spot, like she's still in Kili's arms. After a few minutes she reappears, this time with bruises all over her body and a shallow stab wound in her side.
"Oin, help her." Thorin demands as the older dwarf rushes forward. "We have to do something about the magic that takes her."
"That's it!" Gandalf exclaims loudly, happily, stopping all other conversations. "Excellent idea, Lord Thorin. I know how to stop it."
He waves his wand at Audrey and Kili, speaking in a different language that the dwarves don't know. A green glow surrounds Kili and Audrey. It covers every inch of them before slowly fading into the couple, not hurting them.
"That will stop all magic from reaching her, except from his staff." Gandalf answers everyone's silent questions, happily.
"She has a brand, on her right wrist." Oin announces, earning angry growls from everyone. "It is a little sideways W inside of a D." Oin adds, looking up at Thorin with an unreadable expression on his face.
