"-Blimey! These ain't sheep, these are westsnape!" One deep voice boomed proudly, whom she assumed it to be from the troll as she roamed quietly from tree to tree, eyes scanning for her brother, though in vain.

"Awh, I don't like horse- I never have. Not enough fat on 'em." A different voice complained.

"Lot better than that ol' farmer; all skin and bone he was. I'm still picking out bits from my teeth." Another voice complained.

Her eyes widened a moment. How can her and Bilbo of all people take on three whole trolls? Not that she didn't trust Bilbo, she'd trust him greatly with even her own well-being. But the poor hobbit just strongly lacked in weaponry.

Jumping onto a higher branch she got a eye full of the trolls camp just a few feet away. The three trolls were surrounding a small fire, sitting on a few fallen trees that she assumed, they themselves probably tore down. One wore an apron, the other a vest and shorts and the last one bearing solely a pair of shorts. Behind the one closest to the cave wall, she spotted all the missing ponies.
Her eyes suddenly flicked to movement creeping around the trees just beside the trolls encampment. Found him.

Bilbo carefully made his way past a few trees, but just as he went to pass another one his foot pressed on a twig. She watched him wince at the small cracking sound with widened eyes.
"Wha' was that?" One of them stood to get a better look of Bilbo's direction.
Looking to the encampment, in which she had a surprisingly good view of both that and Bilbo from her spot in the tree, she saw the one with shorts make their way over to the noise. She tightened her hold on one of her swords as her mind danced a mile a minute, trying to think of a way to avert the attention from her brother.

She saw Bilbo start to move again, attempting to be quieter than even before but then she had noticed that he was going in the direction the troll was headed towards. With a batted breath, she crouched down on the branch, ready to attack if he gets spotted. "You better hurry Fili, Kili. I can't just wait around forever." She mumbled in annoyance. Trying to meet the boys halfway and somewhat comply with their ways. But if something indangered Bilbo, she'd be ready in a split of a second.

Bilbo was now just near the small clearing and was about to come in sight of the foul beasts. But just then, be it the luck of Took as it might, the troll in the vest sneezed loudly, earning the attention of the other trolls. "oh that's lovely that was, oh and look! A floater." The one in the apron said sarcastically.

"Maybe it'll enhance the flavor!" The troll that was about to find Bilbo said excitedly, turning on his heels to sit back down on his log and glancing into the pot of whatever blasphemy of a concoction they had stirred up. She sighed in relief, happily noting just how short of an attention span they must have.

"Well there's more where that came from!" The one that sneezed perked up, about to sneeze again then the in the apron grabbed his nose. "Oh no you don't! Sit down!"

Her eyes traveled to behind them as Bilbo peeked out and made his way towards the ponies. He tried to tug, pull and tear at the ropes holding the ponies to a fence. She had to admit, she was impressed the buggers thought to tie them up.

As the trolls argued amongst themselves, she eyed her brother in a glare that just screamed, 'you're a fool, Bilbo Baggins. A total utter doorknob.' as she watched him make his way towards the trolls with their backs to him. Attempting to pull on the blade that graced one of their sides. She rolled her eyes as much to his dismay, the sword didn't budge an inch. Just what did he expect? A small tug to it and the gigantic piece of metal would just come clanking down? It was attached to a rope around the buggas waist!

She stuffled a laugh as she watched her brother attempt once more to tug it up and out of the rope, this time doing it properly, only for the troll to stand up and full on scratch his behind directly in the face of the poor hobbit. His face turned to one of disgust, crouching down to hide from the creature and hopefully, the gastley smell.

As the troll made his way to sit back down, Bilbo stood up and went directly behind the troll, once more grabbing the blade. Her eyes widened, the laughter that was eched on her features turned to one of worry as the troll reached behind him and suddenly grabbed Bilbo, blowing his nose on him. She was genuinely grossed out but begun to pull out her sword none the less. Of course, She wanted to just charge out of the tree now and demand they release him at once, but the first thing she learned (the hard way, might she add.) Was that she must wait for the right moment to attack, catching them off guard always gave an advantage. At least in the wise words of Dalana.

"Ahh! Blimey! Look whats come out my hooter! It's got arms and legs and everything!" It squealed out. The others standing to look aswell.

"What is it?"

"I dunno, but I don't like the way it wiggles around!" He cried out, tossing Bilbo onto the floor along with what she assumed was the hangerchief he meant to grab but grabbed bilbo along with it. The one bearing only shorts grabbed a knife. "What are you mate? An oversized squibble?"

"I-I'm a burgler! I mean- Hobbit!"
She giggled, at least he's taken in to the Burgler title.

"A burglerhobbit?"
"Can we cook him?"
"We can try!" He turned to make a run for it but they were surprisingly quick to surround him.
"He won't be more than a mouthful when he's skinned and deboned, but perhaps, there's more burglerhobbits in these parts, then there might be enough for a pie!" He went to grab Bilbo, Bilbo ducked one hand but clearly didn't see the second coming right towards him.

Aviel's breath hitching in her throat; she took one of her swords and threw it straight into his hand. Compared to his size, it looked as if she threw a large needle at him. He screamed and groaned as Bilbo froze in surprise, along with the others . "Isn't that Izbad?" He blinked, recognizing his sisters weapon, before going to dodge another trolls grip. "I knew there'd be more in these parts! Where are they hiding?!"

"I-I don't know!" Bilbo panted has he continued to dodge the trolls restlessly. Finding an opening between one of their legs he ran through only to be caught by the one with a vest on the otherside. "Gotcha!" He said in thumph. Holding Bilbo by his ankles, as his face quickly turned red from the blood rushing to his head and probably the tiredness from all the running he did. "Bilbo!" She shouted in worry. The trolls looked around the trees, intrigued. "So there is more BurglerHobbits! Come out come out where ever you are!" The one holding Bilbo sang as he looked around for her. "If you want help your friend, that is!" He chuckled.

"Yeah, or get eatin' too!" The other chuckled along, only to release a groan as he got a hit in the ribs from the troll beside him.

She huffed. Fine, if he wants to play. Let's play. Pulling out Azbad she jumped to a closer tree and crouched down. Pausing as she heard rustling of grass and a trail of stomping boots, just a bit away she could see none other than the Heirs of Durin and the rest of the company in tow. She let out a sigh of relief.

"Is there others of you out there?" The trolls circled the hobbit hanging by his feet in the air. "No! No there's not!"

"Where are the other BurglerHobbits hiding?!" The other shouted.
"T-theres nobody else! Just me!" Bilbo shouted exasperatedly. Her face softed at his response. Even in immediate danger he wouldn't give them up, it was something she admired greatly in her brother. She turned to see the company also listening to the interrogation at hand. Their faces showing a sense of pride, surprise and a slight bit of guilt. She smirked in thumph. It felt good to have them see first hand that her brother is a great person overall. Someone who deserves their respect, if anything at least for his courage and loyalty.

"If he won't fess up, then hold his toes over the fire! Make him squeal!" She turned from her thoughts in surprise. Without even thinking about it she threw Azbad into the hand holding Bilbo. The troll screamed in pain dropping Bilbo, who in turn ran away towards the ponies and hid behind the fence. Breathing heavy. Too busy watching her brother escape safely, she didn't notice the eyes on her, nor the stumping of oversized feet until she was grabbed by the waist and yanked from the tree. Squealing in surprise as she was now face to face with three trolls.

"Well looky here! Its a girly BurglerHobbit!"
"You must be his mate, ain't ya lassie?" One chuckled out as she winced in disgust. Spitting in his face. His laughter turned into a scowl as he tightened his grip on her, she cried out in pain but watched as Bilbo made it past the trees to where the company was now hid. A look of relief washed over her.
"She's much too small to be eatin' by herself, hardly any fat on 'er!"
"What you mean? I reckin' the lass would be a mighty fine dessert. At least for one!" He chuckled darkly, pulling her closer to his mouth and she squished her nose at his terrible breath. Thanking Durin that she was grabbed with her arms to her sides, she wiggled her arm a bit closer to the dagger that dressed her thigh. As her fingers grazed it she let a smirk tug on her lips. With as much hast she could muster, she bent her arm and sent the dagger flying straight into his horrid mouth.

He released a scream, stumbling back into one of the logs and in turn falling over onto his back. His hands hurridly trying to get the dagger from his mouth. She reminded herself to thank Dalana later for those excessively long hours of training her how to fall properly. Though she deemed it unnecessary then, it came of great use after all. As she rolled onto the dirt, paying careful attention to her head, she landed on one knee in a crouched position. "Ever heard of a peppermint, you disgusting beast?" She huffed; blowing a misplaced piece of her hair out of her face. Even when she tied it up, it still got in her face during battle. She sighed at the stubborn bits of strawberry blonde before she felt a tug at her ankle.

"Wahh!" She yelped out, now coming face to face with a troll yet again. Cursing under her breath that she had forgotten about the one that was behind her. And now was in the same position Bilbo was in, only this time, hanging by one ankle.

"A pepper what?" He growled.

"I'll take that as a no." She rolled her eyes, using her hand to try to push away the smell of the others one breath, just as bad, if not worse than the first trolls. He grumbled in annoyance, squeezing her tighter. She involuntarily let out a scream of pain as her ankle throbbed within the horrendous creatures fist.

Only easing as she heard a growl from below him and the troll holding her whimpered in pain. Limping backwards before landing on one knee and in turn, loosening his grip.

"Release her!" A familiar voice growled from below. She'd know that voice anywhere, as she listened to it lull her to sleep aplenty when they rode places, often talking of random things or telling her goofy tales of his childhood. She released a breath, trying to get a glimpse of the dwarf. "Kili!" She shouted with relief. He smiled back up at her, eyeing her frame for injuries. Though seeing nothing serious he's eyes turned cold again, looking past her to the trolls. "Drop her!" He shouted.

"You what?!"
"I said, drop her." He smirked darkly, spinning his sword. The look on his face just dared them to try anything funny with his Aviel. Wait, his Aviel? He blinked at the sudden thought.
The trolls glanced at each other. Before looking at him and shrugged. Tossing her from them. Her eyes widened as she felt her stomache drop, her arms and legs swinging in vain to grab something, anything, as she flew through the air.

Landing with a loud thud, she gripped her head as it hit sturdy metal. Wait, metal? She looked up to meet dark brown eyes, both filled with surprise and relief. "S-sorry." She mumbled attempting to get up from the armor clad dwarf prince. His arms that she just realized was around her held a bit tighter so she couldn't get up just yet. She blinked in confusion only a moment before hearty roars and various dwarfs ran into the clearing, weapons aimed at the now wounded trolls.

She blushed lightly as she realized why he had stopped her. She by the looks of it would have just gotten knocked over again by the way the dwarves blindly ran in at full force. "T-thanks." She whispered to which he smiled gently. Giving her a strong nod. "Always, Aviel." His eyes found hers just when-

"Hate to interrupt the reunion but we best get you lovebirds moving." Fili's voice said just beside them with amusement in his eyes. The she-hobbit turned in surprise to find the blonde leaned down to their level. Kili rolled his eyes as he watched Fili offer Aviel his hand, helping her up from their awkward position. Giving an small laugh, she nodded in thanks. Once Kili hopped up they took a fighting stance, only for her to wince at the sudden pain that shot up her leg and throughout the rest of her body.

She signed inwardly as she glanced down to her throbbing ankle. Why'd that idiotic beast have to have such a strong grip?

"You alright there, lass?" Fili glanced down at her, having noticed her wincing.

"I'll be fine." She reassured him, or more so herself, limping a bit closer to the action as she spotted Azbad in the dirt just a bit away. She paused when a hand on her upper arm stopped her. She glanced back to the blonde dwarf looking at her ankle in worry then back to up her. "Really, I'll be fine Fili. It's nothing I can't handle."

"Perhaps I should get Kili to help you back to camp? I think you should sit this one out, Lassie."

Her eyes widened at the mention of the dwarf prince. "There's really no need to worry him, it's alright, just a scratch. I'll have it checked later, Fili. Promise."

He gave her one last hard look, before nodding and releasing her arm. He sighed, watching her attempt to conceal her limp as she made her way over to her sword. Kili was going to kill him.
