Greenwood's Queen
Fourteen: Smaug
As they arrived Billa saw the place and she was getting nervous, she breathe in and began to walk toward the Mountain. Billa looked at the ruins and she looked at Balin.
"What's that?"
"That used to be Dale, it ended like that when the Dragon came." Balin told her. Billa looked around.
"Shouldn't we wait for Gandalf?"
"No, we need to get there soon, Billa." Thorin told her. They began to walk over and Billa was seeing all Smaug had left, all she couldn't see from Lake Town. She looked back to the town and hoped that Thranduil; would arrive soon. She was getting this deep feeling in her gut that wouldn't go away. She learned to trust it through her years.

Lake-Town
Everyone was getting ready to leave the town; they were listening to both Prince Legolas and Fili who were telling people they had to leave. Some people of course were being stubborn and did not want to leave.
"The Dwarves promised us a new beginning." One of the men told them.
"You won't be getting one, if something terrible happens to you." Fili told him calmly.
"Aren't ya supposed to be dealing with the Dragon?" one of the citizens asked.
"I was asked to help the people out of town in-case something were to happen." Fili replied.
"Fili, Sigrid!" they both turned around to see Bain coming.
"What's wrong?" Sigrid asked.
"The Master had Da arrested." Bain whispered to them.
"What?" Sigrid said.
"We need to find a way to get him out." Fili told them.
"He gave me something to hide." Bain told them.
"Keep it safe." Fili told him.
"I will." Bain said.
"We need to get these people out of Lake Town and help Bard." Legolas told him.
"Kili?" Fili asked.
"I'm on it." Kili said and he moved with Tauriel to break Bard out of prison.
"We saw a few stray Orcs." One of the humans told them.
"I'm on it." Legolas told Fili and now it was Fili and Sigrid directing everyone. Legolas threw a look toward the Mountain; he was worried that Billa would not come back from it and that his Father would suffer another loss. He had no idea that Thranduil was coming and he was getting ready.

They had given up; the Dwarves had just given up. The light of the sun was no matter and everyone was down. Billa didn't know what to say but she grabbed the map that Thorin had thrown her way and she was trying to find an answer. She looked at it, until she saw it.
"The key hole." She said. "Come back, come back!" she screamed.
"It's the last of the moon, the last of the moon of autumn." She screamed pointing to the Moon and went to look for the key which Thorin had dropped. "Where's the key?" She kicked it when it stopped and Thorin was standing there. He bent down to grab it and she saw all of them come back. Thorin put the key inside and they waited before he pushed the door opened and it did.
"Erebor."
"Thorin." Balin said and Thorin held his shoulder. Billa looked at them and she sighed they were home and she had one thing to do.
"I know these walls, these stones." Thorin said touching the inside. "You remember Balin."
"Aye, I remember." Balin said.
"Here lies the seventh kingdom of Durin's folk." Gloin read out loud and Billa looked at it. "May the heart of the mountain unite all dwarves, in defense of this home?"
"The throne of the king." Balin told Billa.
"And what's that above it?" she asked.
"The Arkenstone." Balin told her.
"That Miss Baggins is what you came here for." Thorin told Billa. She looked at him straight in the eyes and something came to mind, she remembered what Elrond told Gandalf and knew that she needed to be careful.

Billa walked slowly toward the pile of gold, where Smaug was rumored to be sleeping at the moment. Balin had told her to find the Arkenstone; she knew that she needed to be worried about it. He told her that she could turn back, but she told him that she wasn't going to do it. As she walked, she saw the room filled with Gold.

Gandalf was in Dol Gondur knowing someone had begun to take residence there. Gandalf said a spell and he was attacked by Azog the Defiler.
"Where is your Master, where is he?"
'He is everywhere and with you.' Azog said and Gandalf turned to see the power that seemed to be emanating, but the power should be gone, Billa had taken it to Mount Doom.
'You are done wizard.' Azog said and Gandalf blocked him, he could notice the power that was coming around though. He ran and went to one of the bridges, when he saw it.
"Gandalf."
"Saruman." Gandalf said. "The Orc are building an army, we must warn them."
"I know." Saruman told him and sent him blast that Gandalf fought back surprise.
"What are you doing?"
"I need to know, who the ring bearer was, now that the Dwarves are going to Erebor, did you not think the Arkenstone could be use, the King in exile will lose his mind with the stone and will cause war." Saruman said. He attacked Gandalf again but this time it was darker and Gandalf saw that Saruman had been tainted by greed, he was blocked, but he lost.

Billa was walking inside the Mountain and she was worried. She had nothing to make her invisible, but she gave her word. She walked inside the room and she was shocked the place was filled with gold. She didn't know, how she was supposed to find the Arkenstone in all of this, but she understood when Thranduil told her that Thror had gone mad with gold trying to collect more and more. She knocked on the wall and saw how it echoed.
"He's not at home, not at home." She whispered to no one.
She walked on the gold and began to try and find the Arkenstone. She moved pieces and couldn't find them.
"Arkenstone a large white stone, very helpful." She said to no one. When she moved some of the gold, it seemed to move and she looked at the eyes of the dragon. She hid behind the pillar and saw as the gold moved and she knew that Smaug was incredibly large. She didn't know if he was awake but she began to move a little faster and trying to be quiet around the gold not being seeing, before she hid behind a pillar, from the pillar she found, she saw him.
"Well thief, I smell you, I hear your breath, and I feel your air." Smaug began to talk. "Where are you?" he asked and she was glad she was away from him, but she threw some gold coins to the other side to trick him.
"Come now, don't be shy, step into the light." Smaug taunted her, trying to find her. When he moved, she turned around the pillar. "There is something about you, something you carry something precious." Smaug told her and she was trying to find, what kind of precious thing she could be holding that would get his attention, she had no gold. She hadn't notice, she had not moved.
"Ah, there you are Thief in the Shadows." He said and Billa looked at him.
"I did not come to steal from you, oh Smaug the Unassessably Wealthy, I merely wanted to gaze upon your magnificence to see if you really were as great as the old tales say, I did not believe them."
Smaug moved out of the way and Billa was trying to keep him in her sighed.
"And do you now?!"
"Truly, the tales and songs fall utterly short." Billa said. "Oh Smaug the Stupendous."
"Do you think flattery will keep both of you alive?"
"No, no." Billa was looking at him weird; there was only one of her here.
"No indeed." Smaug told her. "You seem familiar with my name—but I don't remember smelling your kind before, who are you, and where do you come from May I ask?" he said and Billa looked at him, before she noticed it, the Arkenstone.
"Uh—I come from under the hill." Billa said.
"Underhill?"
"And under hill and over hills my path has led. And through the air I a she who walk on fire."
"Impressive, go on."
"I am luck-wearer, riddle-maker, barrel-rider." She hadn't actually ridden down the river but the dragon didn't know that.
"Barrels? Now that is interesting." Smaug told her moving. "And what about your little Dwarf friends? Where are they hiding?"
"Dwarves?" Billa asked. "No, no, you got that all wrong they are no dwarves here."
"Oh I don't think so, barrel-rider!" Smaug said. Billa began to move when Smaug was focused on his rant. "They sent you here to do their dirty work, while skulk about outside."
"Truly you are mistaken, O Smaug, Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities." Billa said.
"You have nice manners for a thief and a liar!" Smaug screamed at her. "I know the smell and taste of Dwarf, no better, it is the gold, they are drawn to treasure like flies to dead flesh." Billa saw as the Arkenstone was taken when Smaug moved it away and she followed it.
"Did you think I did not know this day would come?!" he said moving after her. "That a pack of canting Dwarves would come crawling back to the mountain?!"
#
Outside the Dwarves heard the noise.
"Was that and earthquake?" one of them asked.
"That, my lad was a dragon." Balin answered.
They weren't the only ones out in Lake Town, some of the people heard it, and the main was Thranduil as he was coming.
"That's coming from the Mountain sire." One of the elf's told Thranduil. He didn't look worried but on the inside he was, his wife was in that Mountain, she could be fang Smaug at the very moment.
#
"The King Under the Mountain is dead, I took his throne and ate his people, like a wolf among sheep." Smaug told Billa as he was following her. "I killed where I wish, when I wish, my armor is iron, no blade can pierce me." he taunted her.
#
Legolas had to knock out the Guards and broke jail door.
"Did you hear it?" Bard asks him.
"Yes, Billa is there." Legolas told him.
"I need to get to the tower." Bard told Legolas worrying as well.
"We are getting more people out of the town." Legolas told him.
In the Mountain all the Dwarves were looking at the door.
"What about Billa?" Ori asked.
"Give her more time."Thorin said.
"Time to do what? To be killed?" Balin asked.
"You're afraid..."
"Yes, I'm afraid." Balin answered. "I fear for you, a sickness lies upon that treasure hoard, a sickness that drove your grandfather mad."
"I am not my grandfather."
"You're not yourself." Balin told him. "The Thorin I know would not hesitate to go in there—"
"I will not risk this quest for the like of one burglar." Thorin snapped.
"Billa, Her name is Billa and whether you like it or not, if she loses her life in there a Dragon is the last thing we will need to worry about." Balin told him. He had seen the love of the Elf King for his Queen and he knew if he lost her no one would stop his rage.

"It's Oakenshield that filthy Dwarfish usurper." Smaug told Billa. "He sent you here for the Arkenstone didn't he?"
"No, no, I don't know what you're talking about." Billa said trying to get the stone.
"Don't bother denying it; I guessed his foul purpose some while ago." Smaug said. "But it matters not Oakenshiel'd quest will fail, someone was tainted and darkness will reign once more, it will spread to every corner of the land."
"You have been used Thief in the Shadows, you were only a means to an end, the coward Oakenshiled has weight the value of your life and your off spring and found it worthless." Smaug told her. Billa stood frozen in shocked, she had head wrong, and she had to.
"No, no you're lying."
"What did he promise you a piece of the treasure as if it was his to give, I will not part with a single piece of coin, not once piece of it." Billa ran for the stone. but she was thrown in the air.
"My teeth are sword, my claws are spears, and my wings are a hurricane." Smaug told her. He stretched and she saw it.
"So it is true the black arrow hit its mark."
"What did you say?" Smaug asked.
"I was just saying, your reputation precedes you Smaug the Tyrannical, truly you have no equal on this earth." She said and looked at the stone.
"I'm almost tainted to let you take it, if only to see Oakenshield suffer watch him destroy him, watch it corrupt his heart and drive him mad, but I think not, I think our little game ends here, so tell me thief how do you and the child in your womb choose to die?" Billa moved out of the way as Smaug let the flame out and she grabbed the Arkenstone, throwing into the Dragon's flame destroying it and she ran away trying to get back to the surface.
