p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"It had been three days since Thorin had lockdown everyone in Erebor. He kept asking for what was rightful for him. None knew what he was talking about. At least Fili and Kili did not know about it. She tried to look for Zirb in the dungeons but there was always someone stopping her./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""I'm sorry, Brine, but if Thorin finds out that I have let you see her… I don't want to know what he would do to me…" Bofur said one time. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""But she hasn't done anything wrong. She was here helping me out to go back home." She argued but Bofur did not move./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""I'm sorry!" He yelled once Brine decided to walk away from there. She needed to find a way to take her out of there./span/p

p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Are you crazy?" Fili asked as he walked from one side to of the room to the other. "He will put you inside the dungeons too if you go and tell him that." Brine followed him with her green eyes./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""It's the only solution unless we find out what he is looking for." Brine explained for the third time./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""The problem is that we don't know what he is looking for." Fili sighed and sat down next to her in his bed. "Brine, I'm sure he will change his mind soon, so don't worry." He tried to calm her down./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""But she is my friend! She is like my sister. I cannot let her abandon there!" Brine said as she did the same thing Fili was doing a moment before. She started walking around the room. "What if it was me instead of Zirb. Wouldn't you try to help me?" /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""I guess so." He murmured and looked at the other side. Brine felt that it was useless to keep talking and she went to her room. "Brine, wait." /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""No Fili. This is useless. We are here, locked, just because he had this stupid thought that we have stolen something from him." She was about leaving when Kili appeared in the room without even knocking the door./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""I was looking for you guys!" He said as he entered in Fili's room./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Kili. What did I tell you about entering without knocking?" Fili asked in a big brother tone./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""It is important." Brine pushed her back against the door and waited for Kili to tell them whatever he needed. "I know what Thorin is looking for." Fili and Brine focused their attentions in Kili's words. "The Arkenstone." He finally said./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""What is that?" Brine asked quickly./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""The King's jewel," Fili answered slowly. "But I thought it was something that Smaug kept in the chambers," Fili said and Brine felt completely lost while the brothers kept talking./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Okay, guys. Now we know what he wants. We just must look for it. And then, I can take Zirb out of the dungeons." She said in a cheerful tone and walked outside the room with Fili and Kili following her. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Brine, do you have any idea where to start looking?" Fili said. "I propose to wait until tomorrow, so we'll have more time." /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""What? I'm sure it is not that difficult." She turned back but kept walking. "Come on. The first one to get it wins." She cheered the guys. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""What is the prize?" Kili asked funny. "A kiss from you?" He laughed and blinked her an eye./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Well, that could be your prize." She answered turning her gaze away from him. She wished she could ask for the same prize: A kiss from Fili. "But mine would be…" She was about to finish her sentence when they arrived at the treasure's chambers. They were in something like a bridge, from they could see everything shining in gold. "This is the place?"/span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Are you ready?" Kili asked from behind her as he put a hand on her shoulder./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Yes." Brine nodded and walked down unsecured. She felt the rounded coins under her as she walked above them. She had never been in a place like that and she was sure she would never be again. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"-/span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"It had been two hours since they began to look for the Arkenstone without finding it. Brine sat against a wall and hit her head lightly. She was tired and she needed a little rest, but she could not stop. Not for Zirb. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""It looks nice on you." Fili's voice said fanny as he put something on her head. Brine opened her eyes and found him in front of her with a smile on his face. She took her hands above her head and felt something like a tiara. She smiled back to him. "Maybe if you change your cape for this coat…" He offered her a long and heavy coat made of the most luxurious fabric she had ever seen. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Hmm. What do you think? Do I look like the Queen of Erebor now?" She laughed as she walked around him. Kili joined them once he heard the noises. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Definitely yes." He said as he looked at Fili. "But you are missing something." Brine and Fili looked at him confused. Suddenly, he put a crown over Fili's head and pushed him to Brine. Fili fell on his knees in front of Brine. "You are missing your King." Neither Fili nor Brine could look at the other. They were so embarrassed that they were avoiding crossing their gaze. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"span style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /span"So you are the ones that I should blame for everything." A rude voice said from above them.

p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""Uncle is not what you think. We were trying to help. We were just having a rest." Fili began to say as he walked to him but stopped at the begging of the stairs. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""You are so naïve, Fili. Do you think that was what you were doing? Women have a nice way to control our minds. They managed to make you think that you are something to them. That they care for you… And they do, until they get what they want." He said coldly fixing his gaze on Brine. "I should have known since the beginning. You came with us to take it, right?" He took her wrist and pulled her closer. Brine complained./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""I think you should stop," Fili said trying to control his nerves. Thorin did not listen to him and continued arguing. "I said stop!" Fili yelled as he pushed him away from Brine. "Don't you ever touch her again." He embraced Brine and took a few steps back. They looked at each other for a long time until Kili broke it./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""What is that?" He asked as he heard a noise of voices coming from outside. Kili and Thorin looked through a little window while Fili was checking Brine./span/p

She felt sadder then as she thought about her marriage. She wished her future husband to be half like Fili, but she was sure he would be a stubborn and mean dwarf. She felt asleep crying and thinking about how it would be to be married to Fili instead of with a complete unknown dwarf. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"She woke up at dawn. Erebor was complete silence. She looked through her window and saw a terrific image.

When he opened the door, Brine felt worst. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;""What's wrong?" Fili asked as he took her face in his hand. "Are you okay, Brine?" He looked at her worried. Brine took a step back. She could not help but notice Fili's armour. "Brine!" He called her./span/p

To stay here until they took Erebor and we lost our home again? We have been looking for that all our life. We are not going to lose it so easily." He said with a hard tone. Brine looked at him as she shocked her head lightly. /span/p
