Lenora makes her grand debut in this chapter. This one is also a little sad but with some bits of Smaug in it. Hope you like!
Lenora would be portayed by Keira Knightly.

A dark brown haired woman at the age of thirty stood over her mother's grave. She wore a tan colored dress that had straps resting at the sleeves. Her mother's gravestone said. "Katla Black beloved mate to Tobias Black and Mother to Lenora Black"

"Visiting your mother again I see" Tobias came up from behind his daughter breaking her train of thought.

"I just wanted to feel her presence that's all" Lenora said smiling look back to her father. Tobias was in his early fifties in human years, and he looked like he was in her early thirties from a human's perspective. He still was a handsome male wolf with the same colored hair as Lenora's which matched with his golden eyes. He wore a gray tunic with black pants and matching boots. Lenora's was barefoot and this displeased her overprotective father. She placed the white iris's she had brought onto her mother's gravestone before turning around and taking her father's hand into hers.

"You worry about me too much Da" Lenora teased as she and him headed back to village.

"A father always worries for his child's safety and I want a guard with you the next time you decide to leave the village love, you know there have been reports of Orcs running amongst and Azog is not fond of our kind"

At the mention of Azog the Defiler, Lenora felt her fangs elongate. Throughout her childhood Lenora learned that her pack and Azog's shared the same forest but both alpha males had their own domains but that didn't mean there were fights. Several days ago some Orcs ambushed a hunting party and seriously injured some wolves. The party was led by Azog's son Bolg; the younger Orc was just a hideous as his sire.

"If that is what you wish father" Lenora said back. Tobias kissed his daughter's hand and said.

"That's my warrior" Lenora only smirked at this comment.

The she-wolf was taught how to fight and to properly wield weapons since she was five, despite the several tantrums and wanting to give up, Lenora continued to try and master the arts of weapons. By the time she reached eighteen years she was one of the best fighters amongst the pack, making her popular with the other male wolves. Also once she became eighteen her training in the way to lead her pack began. That was harder than learning how to fight, but Lenora wasn't one to give up easily and after four years of training she was declared ready to lead. In a few months she would take over her father's role and become alpha herself.

And she hoped to find her true mate; a true mate to a wolf was precious. Lenora knew some of her ancestors were elves, so she knew the Elvin language well. The village was beginning to celebrate the first night of the warm season meaning spring. Spring and summer in this part of the forest were incredibly hot, but it also brought lots of rain and warm weather.
"It appears everyone is looking forward to tonight's events" Tobias stated the obvious and this earned a smirk from his daughter. Some wolf children in their wolf forms ran past the two and when they saw them, they bowed down in the manner to show respect to their alpha before taking their leave to play. Older wolves doing laundry, and what else not would do the same thing as they passed. Tonight was a full moon and that was a wolf's strongest time of the month.

"I wouldn't blame them this winter has been dreadfully cold and food was not east to find" Lenora added.

"You are right and tonight will be your last chance to join with the others before you take my place" Tobias said coming to a stop in front of Lenora's home. It was a small hut and it was made out of the trees from the forest where the Mirkwood Elves lived.

"I am a little tired I want to rest before tonight's events" Lenora explained looking to her father.

"Then get some rest my child I shall see you tonight" Tobias put his hands onto his daughters face and brought it down forward so he could press a kiss against her forehead. Lenora growled at the way he kissed her but she allowed him to do so none of the less. Tobias bid her goodbye and Lenora opened the door to her cottage and shut it. She didn't almost make it to the bed she was so tired, last night she hadn't sleep well, and she hoped a few hours of sleeping would restore her energy. She fell asleep once her head hit the pillow and she dreamed of dragons for some reason.

She dreamed that she was a black dragon herself flying gracefully in the air alongside another dragon. By the looks of it he was a male and he was larger than her despite her being big herself. His scales were a dark red with gold scales lining his underbelly. He was a drake that had four limbs instead of six, like she had. Whoever this dragon was she felt a bond between the two of them.

"Shall we hunt my mate?" Lenora asked to the male.

"Let's" the male replied his voice was deep. He had the most beautiful golden eyes with black slits she had ever seen.

"Then catch me if you can" Lenora teased before she spread her wings once more and she nosedived toward the ground. Her mate roared out in annoyance and he did the same technique following after his beloved. Lenora was the first to land onto the ground before her mate landed next to her. He then launched himself onto his mate in a playful manner. Lenora fell to the ground making the earth shake underneath her. As she tried to get up her mate pinned her beneath him his wings holding her in place.

"That wasn't nice Lenora" the male teased the black dragoness.

"You do things similar mate" Lenora teased her mate back. He chuckled darkly before bring his great face forward and licked her face with his black tongue. The male then nuzzled his great ahead against hers scales against scales. Before anything else could happen, Lenora suddenly woke. When she did she heard screams from her fellow pack members and she smelled smoke. Alarmed the she-wolf got out of bed and hurried over to where her long sword Jura was. The blade was made from a dragon fang and it was diamond white, while the hilt was a dark red with golden rings, the scabbard matched. Not caring if she wasn't wearing shoes, Lenora opened the door to her cottage and her eyes widened.

The other cottages were alight with fire, and she turned around just as an Orc came upon her. The shape shifter took out her blade and with one swing she cut the Orc's head off. The corpse fell to the grass beneath her, its blood soaking her feet. One thing was on her mind and that was to find her father and grandparents. Some wolves were fighting against the one's the Orcs rode, while some were in human form taking down Orcs. Lenora followed her father's scent and hurried over to her grandparent's home first. She caught the smell of their blood and that made her heart freeze.

"Grandma? Grandpa?!" she called as she entered their home which was beginning to catch aflame. She eyed around hoping to see or hear them, however two bodies filled her eyes and she let out a mournful scream. The bodies of her grandparents lay lifeless to one another and worse they were stripped of their clothing. She fought the tears coming down her face before she turned around and left the horrid sight behind her. More and more screams were heard as she followed her father's scent once more, she prayed her father was still alive.

She came upon a field and her eyes widened as her father battled against Azog in his silver wolf form. Azog was just as ugly the last time she saw him a few years back. Tobias was on top of the Orc's back holding on for dear life as with his claws and fangs, her father's fangs were bitten hard into the Orc's left shoulder blade. Despite her father size, Azog grabbed the alpha's scruff and threw him hard into the ground. Tobias yelped as he collided with the earth and what happened next would forever haunt Lenora.

Azog took out his sword and pushed the blade hard into Tobias's heart. Lenora's scream of fury escaped her throat and it caught Azog's attention. The Orc turned to face her and he smirked taking out his sword from her father. Lenora ran towards him with Jura ready, Azog was ready as well. The sounds of metal against metal sang out in the moonlit field.

It's has been a few years child of Tobias Azog sneered at her.

Don't you dare address me you bastard! Lenora snarled back at the alpha Orc. She could understand the Orc language thanks to her studies.

You die tonight little she-wolf Azog sneered back at Lenora and he used his sword to knock Jura out of her grasp. The sword went flying from her hand landed in the grass a few feet away from her. Lenora's blue eyes widened and her human form began to change. She felt her limbs stretch and black fur emerged, a second later a huge black wolf snarled back at Azog. With rage fueling her veins Lenora launched her huge form onto Azog, catching him off guard. The she-wolf knocked her prey to the ground and she began to claw and bite the Orc all over his body. Azog screamed as he felt his face being scratched and he smelled his blood pouring out of his wounds. But Lenora wasn't finished just yet she sank her blood stained fangs into Azog's right leg and bite down hard feeling the bones break underneath her bite.

Azog's screamed even more in pain before he lay his head against the earth. Lenora released her bite from the Orc's leg and sniffed to see if Azog was dead. She growled when she learned he wasn't, his wounds were serious and his face was torn out beyond recognition. Lenora then turned to her father and reverted to her human form. She still wore her dress from earlier but it was stained with blood as was her face, legs, arms and her hair.

"Father" Lenora came over to Tobias, his clothes were torn and he was back in his human form.

"My little warrior" he said weakly putting his hand to his daughter's face. Tears sprang down from Lenora's face.

"Please don't leave me Da I need you the pack needs you"

"The pack is all dead nothing is left for you here my child, and my time to join your mother comes"

"Da please I could get help" Lenora began but she knew it was no use her father the light of her life was dying and quickly.

"You must leave here gather whatever you can before you are found, head to the east to Mirkwood there Lord Thranduil will help you I am certain of it"

A sob escaped Lenora's throat before she buried her head against her fathers. She held onto his hand, as he said.

"You're mother loved you even before you were born"

"I know she did" was all Lenora could say.

"Goodbye my daughter I will always be within your heart" then Tobias Black closed his eyes and death claimed him. Lenora then began to scream like she never screamed before in grief. Tears poured down her face as she mourned both her pack and her father. Then she heard the howls of the Orc's wolves she had to move, or else she would be killed as well. She stood up and went to grab Jura but the sword was gone, there no trace of it. Lenora looked around for her beloved blade until she heard the shouts of the others Orcs.

Cursing she ran like the wind back threw the now ruined village still burning from the many fires. Her cottage wasn't burned down yet thankfully and she hurriedly gathered as much clothing, food, water, and her weapons which included another sword. She tied a black cloak around her and pulled the hood up covering her face as she ran out into the depths of the forest leaving behind her home.

Later

"Milord Legolas you should see this" Legolas Greenleaf was out patrolling his domain with his fellow elves when one of his father's guards called for him. Concerned he jumped from the tree he had been in and followed after his fellow comrade's voice. Legolas came to a stop where the male elf was, on the ground was a dark brown haired female dressed in a tan dress and it was stained with blood. She had serious wounds that looked like they were about to become infected.

Who is she? Legolas asked in his native language.

It is the daughter of Tobias Black, her pack was murdered as well was its alpha the other male elf explained.

My father will not enjoy hearing this he was always a good friend and ally to Tobias, take her weapons and supplies I shall take her to the healers Legolas ordered his companion who nodded. Legolas then walked over the unconscious she-wolf and scooped her into his arms.

Just hold on sister of the earth Legolas whispered to shape shifter as he carried her towards his home.

Meanwhile Far Away at the Lonely Mountain

The great dragon Smaug the Magnificent felt the presence of magic that was unfamiliar to him. He woke from his sleep and lifted his huge head out of his bed of coins. The coins made clinging sounds as they fell off of him. The fire drake shook his huge body free of the rest of the gold that he lay against his scales, before beginning to walk forward. He followed the pull of the magic and came to a stop at the sight of a sword in its scabbard. The sword was unfamiliar to him but he felt something powerful within the blade. He bent his face down and his teeth scabbard into his sharp fangs.

"For now I shall keep you until I decide what to do you" the dragon said to the blade as though it heard him.

What shall become of Lenora stay tuned to find out!
