I am so happy you guys like my story, this is my first.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Hobbit as much as I wish but it belongs to the wonderful J.R.R Tolkien. Arishel and her horse are my creation.

The next thing she knew was being shaken by someone, don't people know not to wake me up. Without opening her eyes she punches in the direction she thinks the person is standing and hits her target, upon the grunt she hears. Ari finally opens her eyes to see who she hit and sees that it was Thorin. He was glaring at her and she just smirks saying, "People have learned to not wake me." She looks over at Gandalf to see him stifling a laugh.

When Ari turned back to Thorin she saw he was walking away barking out orders for everyone to get ready to leave. So she decided to go and change in the bathroom. Once she saw that it was open she quickly went in and locked the door after she grabbed her bag. Once inside she pulled out a blue tunic and black leggings and put them on after she took off her pervious clothes. When that was done she brushed her long dark red hair and put in a few braids, then pinned them back so her hair was out of her face.

On her way out she caught her reflection in the mirror and saw her piercing silver eyes and soft pale complexion. Wondering how someone like her even exists. With parents from different races who hate each other, she frowns and turns a way.

Then she went out into the hallway to see two young dwarves messing around and shook her head and went to get her weapons and put them on. Then she went outside after picking up a few apples and putting some in her bag. Once outside she went to her black horse, "Rivorn did you miss me, do want an apple" getting a whinny and shake of the head, so she gave him the apple.

"It looks like it is going to be a long journey my friend," Ari says while rubbing his neck. She then hears heavy footsteps and turns around to see that it is Thorin. She just stares at him waiting for him to say something.

Rudely says, "If you make any trouble among my company you are gone." Then he walks away without a response from Ari, who just sighs and turns back around to put her saddle on her horse and tighten everything so anything doesn't fall off. When she was done she looked to see everyone coming out the door.

Ari got on her horse and followed every one down the road towards Bywater to get ponies for the dwarves. When they get there they pay for the ponies and load them up. Once on the road the dwarves begin a bet on whether or not Bilbo will come.

"Hey Ari, do you think Bilbo will come or not?" smirked Kili.

Smiling, "Oh, I don't know. I think he will come." They rode on for a little while when she heard a distant voice, she couldn't make it out so she stopped to listen. When she stopped she could hear the voice saying wait.

Looking at the company, "Stop." Grumbling they stopped and faced her, but then noticed someone saying wait, so they sat there waiting and soon enough Bilbo Baggins comes running into sight. Bilbo going up to Balin and handing him the contract. "I signed it."

Balin looked over the contract to make sure, "Everything seems to be order, welcome Bilbo Baggins to the company of Thorin Oakenshield."

With an annoyed look and says, "Give him a pony." Then turns around to continue on. Much to Bilbo's chagrin, he is pulled up by Fili and Kili and placed on a little pony with light hair.
