Remember We'll Be History

Twenty-Two: Lake town & Old Souls

Bag End

Queen Mother Tris had been a current visitor to Bag End since the new contract had been signed. The Ranger, who called himself Hunter, which her own Spymaster the wife of Nori told her it was a hidden name, but she couldn't find a register of, what his real name was, as the Rangers tended to be very secretive of their names. So, he tended to come and visit Master Baggins as he always got information of the progress going on.

"Lady Tris, you came to visit," Bungo said with a smile opening his door.

"Master Bungo," Tris said with a smile.

"Well come in Prim is getting the tea ready," Bungo told her.

"I hope that I am not bothering you," Tris told him, she knew that he would get some unwanted visits.

"You are a visitor, I do look forward to," Bungo admit it. To him it was calming and part of him knew that he was getting to know the woman that would be close to his Bella, he knew that Sherlock would be protective even when he came over to visit with him to let him know where they were.

"I see that Miss Lobelia has been around," Tris said. Prim was coming over with some biscuits for them to munch on and she seemed red on the face.

"Ugh, that…."

"Prim," Bungo said

"Uncle Bungo, she is crossing the line," Prim told him.

"I'm well aware but with your marriage to Drogo coming soon, we don't need tongues wagging," Bungo told her, Tris saw that Prim was not too happy with that answer but understood. Diplomacy at its finest and it made her want to meet Belladonna.

"How is the wedding planning going, I thought you would wait until Belladonna was back from the journey,"

"We were but we were told by Bella that we should get married soon," Prim said.

"I believed that she wanted to be here," Tris said before drinking some tea.

"Bella knows that Drogo and Prim cannot wait for her, so she wants them to get their happiness sooner," Bungo told her.

"Interesting," Tris said. She had been told when she and Bungo stayed alone drinking tea that Bella had a tendency of not being in around and traveled more seeing the world. She had been invited into Bungo's office and had seen so many things from around and even some of the teas were exotic in the smial.

"Now for some news my Bella's Soul tells me that they are getting to Lake town," Bungo said.

"Oh, sweet Mahal, they are so close," Tris said almost getting tears in her eyes. Bungo touched her hand with a soft smile.

Mordor

He moved around trying to reach the creature around them.

"Do not harm it,"

"What is it?'

"Bright-master!" the creature showed himself and it was a creature that he wanted to put out of his misery. He raised his sword not to harm it but to stop it from getting close. "Ahh! You hold Bright master! Gollum, Gollum,"

"We should kill it,"

'No, he is needed for something greater,'

Thorin on the other side had just been hidden in a small home that didn't seem strong enough to hold them. They had been helped by a Bargeman that seemed to have been waiting for them to come in, the plans changed when they had to come inside the toilet at the Bargeman told them that the Master of Lake town was not fond of people coming in.

"What are you planning?" Bard asked Thorin.

"We want to get our home back," Thorin said. Bard looked at him and he didn't see the woman standing there.

'You can't shame him for wanting to get his home back,' Mina told him.

'He might cause a Dragon to come down on us,' Bard told her in his mind. Mina looked at him and he had to look away as he had done worst as well.

"You're saying Thranduil has plans to do this?" Bard asked.

"He mentioned to wait until he arrived, we have plans to keep everyone safe," Thorin told him.

Outside Bella and Ori had arrived with both Legolas and Tauriel with them to be protected. They were stopped by a disgusting man, that she didn't like at all.

"Well hello, visitor's I hope that…Prince Legolas," Alfrid said surprised at seeing him.

"Hello Alfrid, is there something I can help you with?" Legolas asked politely but cold at the same time.

'He is a leech, the right hand of the Master of this place seems to get off power, he is incredibly hated by the other,' Sherlock told her. 'Don't speak out-loud this place is not kind to Old Souls,'

"My liege, the Master is being very careful about the people coming in, I do apologize," Alfrid said but he noticed the two hooded figures that could be children, but he doubts it. "You brought people with you,"

"Yes, my Father close friends Lady Belladonna of Rivendell and Master Ori," Legolas said and hid Ori's sex which she was thankful for as he knew that Dwarves hid their sex. He also kept the last name and given her more protection. It caused Alfrid to stop and think because he really couldn't stop the Elven Prince to come in if they wanted war with the Woodland Realm and everything was a bit difficult now after the Old Soul had been killed.

'He is trying to save face,' Sherlock told her.

"Ah, the Master will want to know that you have come to grace us with your presence," Alfrid said before he bent down toward Bella and seeing her face. "Hello, my Lady,"

"Hello," Bella told him the creepy smile made her want to punch him especially when he grabbed her hand to kiss it.

"I have never seen someone like you here," Alfrid said noticing that she might have been small as a child but as an adult.

"I happen to be Hobbit sir," Bella said.

"Ah, the Master would want to meet you," Alfrid said but he was stopped by Legolas.

"We have other business we come for, but I believe we can go when my Father has arrived," Legolas said making it sure that Alfrid understood that he would not be left alone with Belladonna.

"Understood, the Master will know he will have guest," Alfrid said. He left them but he kept looking behind them.

"We're going to have to worry about him," Bella told Legolas.

"We will take care of him," Legolas told her. "We should get going,"

They walked trying to hurry and not get stopped by another person, Sherlock was looking around and could see that the home they were going to had people looking around. He also felt the people that he was close to an Old Soul.

"We're here," Legolas told Bella as he helped her, and Ori climb the stairs.

"Thank you," Bella knocked on the door and it was opened by a very tall man that seemed tired, he looked at Bella with surprise. It always happened when she met Old Souls it was like clashing with auras. Bard was looking at the small woman and he knew from Mina that she was what someone would call a Hobbit and he had not ever seen one.

"Hello, my name is Bard,"

"Belladonna Baggins," Bella said.

"It's nice to meet you my Lady," Bard said shaking her hand with kindness.

"Ori!" they both turned to see Dori look at his younger sister. Bard and Bella laughed.

'Huh, no wonder you and the Elf King are friends,' Sherlock told her.

"What do you mean?" Bella asked.

'You have in your presence Vlad the Impaler,' Sherlock told her, Bella turned to Bard.

"Really, that is interesting," Bella said surprising Bard as the last Old Soul was sickened, when they found out who he had been.

"Well not as interesting as it seems your life had been," Bard told her. They could both see their old souls and Mina had smiled because they had met in their time. Bella turned to see Thorin standing there and he seemed to be serious. She turned and walked over to him ignoring pretty much everyone.

"Thorin," Bella said and Thorin smiled her way touching her cheek, before bending down and touching foreheads with her.

"You arrived safe," he told her bring her hood down.

"I did just a small bump, but we did," Bella said. The others had moved their gazes away from the couple, they weren't the only ones as Ori and Dwalin were getting acquainted. On the side Sigrid was looking at the couples.

"Your Aunt and Uncle are sweet," Sigrid told Fili who was surprised. He looked at the oldest who had been so kind to them.

"They are, and she will be our Aunt soon," Fili told her. It caught Sigrid by surprise hearing his voice as he had been silent just looking around.
