Everything 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' related belongs to J.R.R Tolkien and Tauriel belongs to Peter Jackson. I hope your enjoying the story and let me know your thoughts.
Since posting this chapter on FF I've added a few extra scenes. In the deleted scenes from the film when the dwarves are first taken to the goblin king he is singing a song which I thought was quite amusing so I've added it into my story.
They were marched along to the sound of some terrible music playing and brought to a stop before the most grotesque looking creature that Solaris had ever seen. The Goblin King was in his element and he danced and sung in-front of his new guests. Solaris couldn't understand a lot of what he was saying but she thought he sung something about 'Goblin Town'. As they were ushered nearer Solaris grabbed onto Fili's hand and he held onto her's tightly. He knew she wouldn't have reached out for someone unless she was truly scared. The song continued as the King sung about various ways to kill things. He then stabbed and swung around one of his own goblin soldiers. The singing eventually came to a stop and the king sat back down on his throne.
"Catchy isn't it. Its one of my own compositions" the king said.
"That's not a song, it's an abomination" Balin shouted.
"Abominations, mutations, deviations. That's all your gonna find down here" the king said.
Their blades were snatched from them and thrown into a pile.
"Who would be so bold as to come armed into my kingdom? Spies, thieves, assassins?" the goblin king asked.
"Dwarves your Malevolence" one of the goblin henchmen said.
"Dwarves!" the king exclaimed.
"We found them on the front porch"
"Well don't just stand there, search them" the king ordered. "Every crack, every crevice"
Disgusting hands grabbed onto Solaris and pulled at her jacket.
"There's jewels in this" one of the goblins said to another.
"Take them!"
"No, no!" Solaris screeched as they started to pull at her clothes.
"Get your hands of her!" Kili and Fili shouted.
"Stop, just stop" she said. She then unfastened her jacket and threw it at the closet goblin. It held it close it its face and studied the topaz. She now stood there in her leggings, boots and vest. She wrapped her arms around herself and the dwarf brothers did their best to hide her from the goblins.
"Stop, what's that?" the king asked.
The goblins stopped and looked around confused at their leader. The king pointed into the huddle with his staff. "Is that a she-elf?" Everyone looked around at Solaris. "Yes your highness" a small goblin replied.
"Bring her to me!"
"No!" the dwarves and Solaris shouted. They managed to kick a few goblins over the edge but they were outnumbered and soon Solaris had been pushed to her knees in-front of the king.
"And what is your name?" the king asked as he brushed some of her hair back with his staff.
"Don't you touch her!" Kili shouted.
"I said, what is your name?" the king asked lowering his face to Solaris.
"Solaris" she said.
"I like you Solaris; I might keep you as a pet. Hold her" the king ordered and Solaris was marched to the side of the throne and held there with her hands behind her back. She bit her lip and did her best to keep a straight face as she looked at the dwarves ahead of her.
"What are you doing in these parts?" the goblin king asked. "Speak"
The little goblins had stopped searching them and they all stood huddled together.
No one said a word to the king "Very well if they will not talk, we'll make them squawk" the goblins surrounding them cheered.
"Bring up the mangler" the king ordered. "Bring up the bone breaker, start with the youngest" he pointed at Ori.
"Wait" Thorin said pushing his way forward.
"Well, well, well look who it is. Thorin, son of Thrian, son of Thror, King under the Mountain. Oh but I'm forgetting, you don't have a mountain. And your not a king, which makes you nobody really" everybody stayed silent "I know someone who'd pay a pretty price for your head. Just a head. Nothing attached. Perhaps you know of whom I speak. An old enemy of yours, a pale orc, astride a while Warg"
"Azog the Defiler was destroyed. He was slain in battle long ago" Thorin growled.
"So you think his defiling days are done do you?" he then turned to a tiny goblin. "Send word to the pale orc, tell him I have found his prize" he said.
"Bones will be shattered, necks will be wrung, you'll be beaten and battered, from racks you'll be hung, you will die down here and never be found, down in the deep of goblin town" the king goblin sang. They were being searched again and being pushed about all over the place. Suddenly all the goblins jumped backwards and Thorin's sword lay on the floor.
"I know that sword, it is the goblin-clever" the king said pushing back into his throne.
"The Biter!" another goblin squealed.
"The blade that sliced 1000 necks"
The goblins suddenly freaked out so the company set to smashing and pushing at the goblins in efforts to escape. "Slash them, beat them, kill them"
A goblin leapt onto Solaris's back and the pair skidded over the edge of the platform, Solaris grabbed the edge and held on for dear life.
"Help!" she shouted.
Fili appeared and pulled her so hard that she landed on top of him, she rolled to the side and they laid there face up as goblins with knives jumped for them. Suddenly a blinding white light shone and all the goblins where thrown back. Everyone lay there dazed and then a voice spoke.
"Take up arms, fight, fight!" it said.
Everyone jumped up and grabbed the nearest weapon they could. It turned out that the voice belonged to non-other than Gandalf.
"He wields the foe-hammer, the beater. Bright as daylight!" the goblin king whaled.
Solaris and Fili continued to work together and bounced of each other and jumped around each other as the fought.
"Thorin" Solaris shouted coming to a stop "Behind you!"
He turned and slashed at the goblin king with his goblin cleaver. The king fell backwards and tumbled from the edge of the platform.
"Follow me, quick!" Gandalf said turning and running.
Everything moved so fast as they ran along the walkways. Goblins came from every direction. Seeing where Gandalf was headed Solaris jumped up higher and ran along a ledge that was some 30 feet above where the rest of the clan were. She'd managed to pick up a goblin bow and some arrows and started to kill goblins that were larger and would be difficult for the others to kill.
She followed their progress as they continued their way to escape. Goblins fell and dropped dead from the path the dwarves were travelling on but there was so many that it hardly made a difference. They finally got to the exit when the Goblin King crashed through the floor.
"You thought you could escape me" he shouted. He swung his club at Gandalf who dodged and fell backwards. "What are you going to do now wizard?"
Gandalf jumped forward and poked him in the eye with his staff.
"Ow" the goblin king exclaimed. He looked back at Gandalf.
"I'm going to tear your heads of!" he yelled.
Suddenly seeming to appear from no where Solaris dropped down and plunged an arrow in the middle of the top of his head. The king froze and his eyes became glazed.
"Not my dwarves" she said twisting the arrow "Not my wizard" she twisted again "Not my hobbit!" she then pushed the arrow all the way into the king goblin's head. He fell forwards and she jumped from him and stumbled into Thorin.
"Damn, need to work on the landing" she said.
The weight of the fallen goblin king smashed the bridge and the whole company were sent tumbling down to the bottom of the cave. They all grunted at the bottom as they landed in a pile of rubble, during the fall Kili had grabbed hold of Solaris and she was now lying on top of him.
"Sorry" she said trying to get up.
"Don't worry about it" he said wincing.
"Well, that could have been worse" Bofur said and then the body of the Goblin King landed on top of them.
"Really!" Solaris exclaimed.
"Yeah what did you have to go kill him for, now look!" Bofur joked.
Solaris smiled and rested her head on Kili's chest. He put a hand on the back of her head and then his fingers pulled at her hair.
"GANDALF!" he yelled.
In his panic he'd grabbed the first thing he could which was Solaris's hair.
"Let go you idiot" she exclaimed and he let go as they scrabbled to their feet, behind them hundreds upon hundreds of goblins.
"There's too many, we can't fight them" Dwalin said helping Nori.
"Only one thing will safe us, daylight. Come on, on your feet!" Gandalf yelled.
They ran and then the exit to the cave came into view.
"RUN!" Gandalf shouted and they raced to fresh air.
They didn't stop running even when the reached outside. The entrance had taken them to the side of the mountain and they raced down the slope at full speed. Trees and rocks started to engulf them once again and as she ran Solaris leapt high off the rocks and landed gracefully.
Gandalf stopped and started counting. "Where's Bilbo, where is our hobbit?" he asked and everyone looked around.
"I could have sworn he was here" Solaris said spinning.
"Where is our Hobbit?" Gandalf shouted more desperately.
"Curse that Halfling, now he's lost" Dwalin said.
"I thought he was with Dori" Gloin said.
"Don't blame me" Dori said.
"Well where did you last see him" Gandalf asked.
"I think I saw him slip away when they first collared us" Nori said.
"And what happened exactly?" Gandalf asked. "Tell me!"
"I'll tell you exactly what happened" Thorin said.
"Think wisely before you speak" Solaris said standing straight as he walked past her.
"Master Baggins saw his chance and took it. He has thought of nothing but his soft bed and his warm hearth since first he stepped out his door. We will not be seeing our Hobbit again" he said.
Solaris marched up to him, grabbed his shoulder and spun him around.
"Will you just stop" she exclaimed "Stop putting him down all the time, yes he maybe a hobbit and yes maybe he misses his home but so do I and so do you, that is why we are here for gods sake. To get you your home and your throne back, Bilbo is sacrificing his life to try and get you lot home and all you constantly do is talk bad about him" she shouted "I am sick and tired of you casting a dark shadow over us with your bad attitude, I am sorry for what happened to your father and your grandfather and I am sorry for what ever the elves did to you to make you hate us so much and if you had laid down your grudge and told me of the map we could have been at your stupid door days ago and never gone to Rivendell as the experience seems to have been so bad, tell me Thorin when will you start being grateful for what you have now and stop dwelling on the past!"
Everyone gasped as Thorin raised his hand and hit Solaris across the face. She fell back to the ground and cradled her face in her hands.
"Thorin!" Kili exclaimed and rushed to Solaris. He tried to help her up but she pushed him away.
"No" she said "Leave me"
Her legs had gone shaky from the shock but she stood and looked at Thorin through her hair that had swept across her face. He looked at her with steely eyes and watched her as she lowered her hand and blood trickled down her face from a thin red cut that had been made by his ring. His face softened slightly and he stepped forward.
"Solaris" he said but she walked away.
"Here" a voice said and Solaris's emerald jacket appeared over her shoulder. She looked round and saw Bilbo standing there.
"Bilbo" she said pulling him into her lap and hugging him tightly. She then let him go and he sat next to her. She pulled the jacket back on and did up the fastenings.
"I heard what you said" he said quietly. "Thank you for standing up for me"
"I would do it again and again; did you say something impressive to Thorin when you came back?"
"Aye I did" he nodded.
"That's my hobbit" she said ruffling his hair.
Then a sound in the distance caught her ears. Solaris stood and turned to the mountain top behind them.
"Oh no" she said.
"What is it?" Bilbo asked.
"Wargs and Orcs, come here"
She pulled Bilbo onto her back and ran to the others.
"Out of the frying-pan and into the fire" Bilbo said.
So what are you thinking about Thorin and Solaris's relationship? Let me know, Love Mayday xx
