"Guys" Solaris shouted as she ran into the clearing and let Bilbo down. "Wargs and Orcs" as soon as she said it figures loomed at the top of the hill.

"RUN!" Gandalf shouted.

"Gandalf we will never outrun them" Solaris shouted.

She turned and sent one of her goblin arrows back. She hit a Warg in the forehead and it went down with a crash. They came to a stop and started to fight with arrows and swords. Some of the dwarves got to the edge of the cliff and stopped.

"It's a dead end" Nori shouted.

"Up in the trees, all of you!" Gandalf shouted.

As a child Solaris had been an excellent tree climber. She dashed around giving the dwarves a lift up to the lowest branches they could find. She then leapt into a tree herself and scrambled as far as she could go till she came across Balin, Dwalin and Thorin.

"Is everyone up?" she asked.

"I think so" Dwalin replied.

The Wargs came and clawed and snapped at the bottom of the trees. Suddenly they stopped and everyone's eyes were drawn to a massive pale orc sitting on a white Warg.

"Azog" Thorin said and Solaris looked from him to the orc who was truly terrifying.

"He's speaking to you Thorin but I can't understand" Solaris said quietly.

"It doesn't matter" he said gruffly, not turning to look at her.

She felt tears brim in her eyes and she wiped them away furiously.

"It cannot be" Thorin whispered.

The Pale Orc yelled in his black language and sent Wargs forward crashing into the bottom of the trees. Solaris's tree shook the hardest as it was the tree that Thorin was in. One of the trees started to timber and in doing so started to take the other trees down with it like dominoes. Thorin grabbed Solaris around her middle and held onto her as they clambered from one tree to another as they fell. They then came to a stop in the last tree and luckily this one didn't fall.

"I'm okay" Solaris said wriggling out of Thorin's arm and onto her own branch.

She then felt the heat of something orange fly past her head, she watched as a flaming pine cone hit a Warg and caught his coat alight.

"Laris" her name was called and Fili dropped a flaming pine cone down to her. She tossed it from one hand to the other as she lit some more for the others and they then launched them down to the ground. A ring of fire was soon around them and the Wargs went running. Everyone started to cheer but their cheering was short lived as the tree started to fall and stopped horizontally over the cliff.

"Hold on" Kili shouted from next to Solaris.

Dori and Ori had fallen and were hanging from Gandalf's staff.

"No, where are you going?" Kili suddenly shouted and Solaris turned her head and saw Thorin standing.

"Thorin!" she yelled. "Don't, Gandalf" she called desperately "Tell me what to do!"

"There is nothing you can do" Gandalf shouted back.

Tears streamed down her face as she watched Thorin run towards the orc. On his white Warg Azog jumped and knocked Thorin to the ground. Solaris tried to push herself up but her arms were failing her.

"There is nothing" Kili said from next to her, she looked and saw that there were tears on his face to.

"There is always something" she said and with a final pull she got herself up onto the tree. She watched as the Warg picked Thorin up in its mouth and he cried out in pain.

"No" Solaris said and started to run.

As she ran forward she pulled her final arrow from the quiver and sent it flying. She didn't have good aim and it went into the Warg's shoulder. It shook its head and tossed Thorin to the side and growled. She ran as fast as she could and skidded to Thorin's side. There was no way she'd be able to move him any where, she turned and saw another Orc approaching. She leant over Thorin and watched as they got closer.

"Don't" she pleaded. "Please don't" tears continued to fall down her cheeks and sting her cut. The second orc in charge lowered his blade and placed it under her chin.

"What is this, never did I think I'd see an elf protecting Thorin Oakenshield" Azog said. The blade tickled Solaris's skin as she swallowed.

"Tell me, She-Elf do you love this dwarf for I see no other reason for why you would choose to protect him?" Azog said.

"What?" she asked blinking.

"Do you love him?" Azog asked.

"I, I…" suddenly the blade was gone from her throat and the orc was tussling with a little hobbit.

"Bilbo!" Solaris exclaimed grabbing Thorin's sword but Bilbo had stabbed the Orc first. Together Solaris and Bilbo stood in-front of Thorin. Three Wargs with Orcs started to advance forward but before they got to the elf and hobbit the other dwarves came to their rescue. Solaris held onto Thorin's elven blade and raced back to his side. "Thorin" she whispered shaking his shoulder gently. "Please Thorin wake up"

A new sound then echoed in her ears and she looked into the sky and saw large birds circling. Thinking that they were vultures Solaris attempted the last thing she could think of.

"Fallan ho quenat!" (heal his body) she shouted in Elvish and held her hand above Thorin's body. A purple light came from her hand and shone brightly at first but it then started to dim. Her vision started to blur and she felt all the energy in her body leave her. An eagle then swooped past her and took Thorin in his talons. She watched as the others were lifted into the air, an eagle then came for her and she jumped onto its back and nestled into the hollow between its wings. She took a deep breath and let sleep take her.

The eagle got as low as it could to the rock and let Solaris slide from his back and then took off. She was awake but she didn't want to open her eyes, she didn't want to see what lay before her. In her hands she gripped the hilt of Thorin's sword; she pulled her knees as close as she could and turned her head down.

"Laris" someone called softly in her ear.

"No" she said shaking her head.

"He's alright, everyone's alright"

She opened her eyes and saw Fili looking down at her. "Thorin's ok?"

"He's fine" he said "Come on"

He put a hand under her elbow and helped her get to her feet. He put an arm around her waist and walked her forward. Thorin was now standing and Solaris saw him shake the helping hands away.

"You!" he said gruffly at Bilbo. "What were you doing, you nearly got yourself killed. Did I say that you would be a burden? That you would not survive in the wild? That you had no place amongst us" he said walking over to Bilbo. Solaris let her head hang. He had truly learnt nothing. "I have never been so wrong in all my life" he suddenly said and pulled Bilbo into a crushing hug. "I am sorry I doubted you"

"No I would have doubted me to; I'm not a hero or a warrior. Not even a burglar" Bilbo said "But you should also be thanking Solaris, she did the most putting herself between you and the orc"

Thorin turned and looked at Solaris. Without so much as a word he strode over to her and pulled her into his arms.

"I am sorry for everything I said and did" he said pulling back and wiping away the crusted blood from her cheek with a gloved hand. He held both sides of her head with his hands and pressed his lips to her forehead.

"I would do it over again" she whispered hoarsely.

"What Lady Solaris has failed to tell you is that she attempted to heal you with magic Thorin" Gandalf said "That is why she is so exhausted now, that kind of magic is hard enough let alone for young elf such as Laris here"

Thorin studied Solaris's face. "I owe you a great debt" he said and Solaris smiled.

"Loose the attitude and we've got a deal" she said holding her hand out and with a smile Thorin shook it.

"Here's your sword by the way" she said handing the blade back to the dwarf.

Their fellow dwarves cheered, they finally got the chance to look around and Thorin froze.

"Is that what I think it is?" Bilbo asked.

They all turned and looked in the distance to see a mountain standing solitary.

"Erebor" Gandalf said "The Lonely Mountain, the last of the great dwarf Kingdoms of middle earth"

"Our home" Thorin whispered.

"A raven" Oin said as a bird chirped "The birds are returning to the mountain"

"That, my dear Oin is a thrush" Gandalf said.

"But we'll take it as a sign, a good omen" Thorin said.

"Your right" Bilbo sighed "I do believe the worst is behind us"

So we're up to the end of the first film. This chapter was so emotional to write! I'm really enjoying this story and I hope your enjoying it too! Let me know your thoughts about Solaris, I'f love to know what you think of my OC. Everything 'The Hobbit' or 'The Lord of the Rings' related belongs to J.R.R. Tolkien and Tauriel belongs to Peter Jackson. Think I'm going to upload the rest of my story under a new title so that I can stay in line with the films. But have no fear, I will put in the description of the new story that Anything for you is the first section. If that makes sense :P love Mayday xx
