Thank you for all the feedback!

So about height differences, Daisy is quite short for a16 year old (it does happen, I'm tiny) so she's still about the height of a child, therefore I'm just gonna say that Fili and Kili are about the same height as her.

Also, this story was never going to be perfect and everyone views it differently so I'm not going to set heights or anything like that, just imagine it how you want!

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh

'Be-because I killed myself'

There was a stunned silence about the room. Daisy dared to glance around, Fili and Kili were looking at her with a concerned yet confused and possibly hurt look on their faces, while Bilbo looked a little shocked and had taken a step backwards. The other dwarves looked at her as if she was crazy. Gandalf however placed a hand on her shoulder causing her to flinch, making Fili and Kili stand up and Bilbo take his step forward again.

'If you don't mind me asking, why did you do that lass?' The same dwarf who'd asked her why she thought she was in heaven. Daisy clenched her fists together.

'Yes indeed, I think we're all intrigued to know why a little girl took her own life' A big dwarf with a menacing look added, to which most of the dwarves gave a loud cheer. It was almost as if they didn't believe her.

'I-I'm telling the truth' Daisy said, confused. The big dwarf roared with laughter.

'If you were telling the truth then you'd actually be in your so called heaven!'

'Hey! That's enough! Leave her alone!' Fili roared, sending bits of food flying as he slammed his fists down on the table.

'Just because you want the pretty lady Fili-'

'You take that back!' Kili shouted as he stood up to join his brother. 'My brother would never-'

'Kili its fine-'

'No Fili its not-'

'Well I believe her' a small dwarf with a distinctive array of knitwear said. Daisy looked at him.

'Be quiet Ori' an older dwarf said.

'No Dori let your brother speak. Let's hear what he has to say on the matter' Kili said. Daisy inwardly smiled at the rhyming between sibling's names.

'Well, the little Miss looks quite frightened so I think all of you lot calling her a liar isn't helping. If you noticed just now when Gandalf put his hand on her shoulder she flinched, and when you two' Ori pointed at Fili and Kili. 'Came bumbling and said she was a jumpy little thing' at this Daisy looked to Fili and Kili, who were looking at her apologetically. 'This means she is obviously afraid of being touched for some reason or another. And as she claimed she killed herself then I can only come to one conclusion.' He turned to Daisy. 'Were you abused in your previous life Miss Daisy?'

Daisy, not knowing how he had only thought of that possibility, gave a little nod. Several of the dwarves gasped.

'Still don't see why she supposedly killed herself. Practically unheard of.' The big dwarf said again. He was ignored.

'Thank you Ori' Gandalf smiled at the dwarf who had made the little speech regarding Daisy. 'Now Daisy, if you would care to come with me' Gandalf murmured in her ear as he gently pulled her along with him. She heard footsteps behind her and the scraping of a couple chairs so she assumed some of the dwarves were following. Gandalf lead her to the small guest room and pulled the door shut.

'Now Daisy,' he began but was interrupted by the door opening and Fili and Kili tumbling through, followed by an agitated Bilbo. 'Oh for goodness sake, you dwarves are more clumsy than I remember, and nosy too. Here I am, trying to have a private conversation with a guest and you just blunder on through! And Bilbo!'

'Pardon me Gandalf but this is my house, and I wanted to know what was going on with Miss Daisy' Bilbo put in, defending himself.

'Yeh, same with us.'

'It's just not our house.'

'And why would you have any reason to concern yourself with-' Gandalf started but was yet again interrupted by the brothers.

'We found her!' Fili cried.

'If it wasn't for us, she'd be wondering around the Shire!' Kili followed. Daisy felt anger bubble up through her veins. They were making it sound as if she owed them something, when they had just abandoned her for food. She was not going to tell them anything, they had just cast her aside.

'And if it wasn't for Bilbo, I would have been left wandering around this house! You just left me in the hallway and told Mr Baggins, or Mr Boggins as you called him, to look after me while you went and had food as if I was just a trinket for safe keeping!' Daisy shouted. Fili and Kili looked a bit taken aback. If she was honest Daisy was aswell, but satisfied with her outburst. It seemed to have worked, for Fili and Kili looked ashamed.

'We're sorry Miss' Fili began but Gandalf waved them off.

'It seems you owe Miss Daisy an apology, but later. If you would be so kind as to wait with your fellow dwarves while Bilbo, Miss Daisy and I talk then it would be most appreciated.' Gandalf said sternly and the brothers backed out of the room. 'Now Daisy, let us begin. First of all, before anything, do you have any idea as to why you are here?' Daisy thought for a moment, unsure how to answer.

'No.' She admitted. Gandalf pulled a chair up for the three of them and they sat.

'I think you had better start from the beginning then.' Gandalf said, patting her knee. 'No worries, take as long as you need.' Daisy took a deep breath and looked at Bilbo, who nodded encouragement at her.

'It all began when I was 5-' Daisy then began to tell them everything. How her father had turned against her, then how her mother had done so as well. How the only person who was ever kind to her died. How she began to self harm;

'What's self harm?' Bilbo had asked quietly.

'What it implies Bilbo.' Gandalf had told the hobbit. Bilbo had shut up after that.

She told them how she lost the need to eat, how she'd lost interest in everything. And how she'd finally worked up the courage to end it all.

And then how she'd woken up here, in a field and met two dwarves. She explained how she was sure that she was in a story from her own time, and why she thought that it was the afterlife.

'I thought I'd meet my Grandmother again' Daisy admitted tearfully. 'But instead I'm here and I've no idea how.'

'It seems Daisy that something here is very confusing. For we are real, as I'm sure you've guessed, not a story.' Bilbo had said.

'Perhaps it would be wise to not tell the others about the story.' Gandalf had told her, as if he was holding back something. 'Other than that you are free to tell your own story to the others, but in your own time of course.' Daisy nodded at him and felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up to see Bilbo smiling at her.

'In the meantime you can stay here with me-'Bilbo began but Gandalf cut him off awkwardly.

'Bilbo, I don't mean to be rash here but you're not staying here for much longer-' A loud knock sounded at the door.

'What do you mean not staying here? And if that is another bloomin dwarf they can go home!' Bilbo had started across the room. Daisy looked at Gandalf, who was looking at bit sheepish.

'I don't think I have the heart to tell him who that is.' He said. 'It's not only a dwarf, but a royal one.'

'And I suppose you're here to join in the fun?' They heard Bilbo angrily say from the hallway.

'Ah, I had better go and interfere I think.' Gandalf swiftly left the room, leaving Daisy to her own thoughts.

She was positive there was something Gandalf was not telling her. He had sat calmly and quietly through her tale and then just told her what he thought she should do quite casually.

Bilbo on the other hand had squirmed through her tale, cast sad sympathetic looks her way and had seemed simply appalled when she said she had no real passion for food. But he had proven to be quite calm when it came to dealing with the matter at hand, and for that she was grateful.

But the dwarves were another matter entirely. She had not expected them to accuse her of lying. Mad perhaps, but a liar? No. And she really hoped they would go away soon because she could tell they did not like her. But the small one, Ori she seemed to remember him being called, had guessed what had happened to her. And that was strange. She was fascinated at how he could observe so much. It also had helped her out of explaining it to everyone, even if it was a little embarrassing and she'd rather they all didn't know yet. Voices outside the doorway made her jump.

'Tell me Gandalf, what was going through your mind when you appointed Mister Baggins as the company burglar?' A deep voice asked, clearly annoyed. Now Daisy was confused. Burglar? And what company?

'Trust me Thorin, he has a lot to offer. You will be glad he is with you when the time comes.' Gandalf replied in his clam voice he had used with Daisy. 'Now I have a little proposition for you.'

'And what is this proposition?' The one called Thorin questioned.

'This evening has seen a slight turn of events.' Daisy held back a snort. Slight indeed. 'An unexpected arrival appeared on Mister Baggins' doorstep, along with your nephews.' No way, Daisy thought, remembering what Gandalf had said about the new arrival being a royal. Fili and Kili are royals?

'And what has this got to do with anything?' Growled Thorin impatiently.

'It seems that this girl has had a great ordeal. I'm sure the dwarves will waste no time in telling you but I ask you not to believe them as they were rather rude to her. I seem to think that the answers to her being here may lie in Rivendell. I propose we take her along and rest in Rivendell, and when the matter is resolved we shall carry on our way.' Gandalf explained.

'Why should I journey to Rivendell?' Thorin spat. 'By the way you talk; you sound as if this girl is from a different world!'

'Well Thorin, I'm not entirely sure, but I think she might be.' There was silence for a while. Then:

'Where is this girl? If she is to accompany us then I want to know if she will be any use. Though Gandalf, I will not be going out of my way to make sure we arrive in Rivendell. If we choose not to go there, you must take her yourself.' Daisy decided she didn't like the sound of this Thorin, royal or not. The door opened to reveal a proud looking Dwarf with long black hair and Gandalf standing just behind him.

'This, Thorin, is Daisy' Thorin walked towards where she was sitting.

'An unusual name.' Charmer. 'Tell me, Miss Daisy, what is this ordeal?'

'I do not think it is the right time to say much Thorin. You may disagree now but when you know the truth-' Gandalf began.

'Alright, keep your secrets wizard. If you are to accompany myself and my men on the journey then I want to know what you will bring to it.' Daisy gulped.

'Um. I can cook? Sort of.' It was true; she had to cook for herself when she was younger. 'And I'm good at keeping out the way, sometimes you won't even know I'm there so I'll be no trouble at all.'

Gandalf had said there might be a reason as to why she was here, and she wanted that answer. That thought is what made her want to desperately prove herself so the stuck up dwarf would let her come with them.

'I suppose they are reasonable skills, for a girl.' Daisy hated the guy, he was rude. 'Very well. But if she gets injured then I'm not waiting. She is your responsibility Gandalf. Now let me eat.'

The dwarf left the room as Bilbo entered with a little cake and a drink.

'Ah Bilbo, once you've given that to Daisy, please would both of you join us in the kitchen.' Gandalf said merrily as he left them. Bilbo nodded and proceeded to hand Daisy the cake, who looked at it blankly.

'Come now, how'd you expect to keep up your strength if you don't eat?' Bilbo asked. Daisy wasn't really sure if she needed to eat anymore, she was dead wasn't she? 'Come on Daisy please, I don't want you to get sick now.' Daisy gave in to the hobbits demands and lifted the cake to her mouth. Bilbo, satisfied with her actions, began pottering about the room tidying up.

'What did Gandalf and that dwarf want?' He asked.

'I'm joining them on their journey, wherever they are going.' Daisy actually had no idea. 'Until they get to a place named Rivendell.'

'Ah Rivendell. I've always wanted to go there.' Bilbo sighed, staring into space.

'Why?'

'It is where elves live!' Daisy almost choked. First Dwarves, then a hobbit, then a wizard and now some elves?

'Elves?'

'Yes Miss Daisy.' Bilbo sighed. 'You really don't know much about this place do you? And I can't believe those dwarves! So rude. Totally unaware of peoples feelings.'

'If you've quite finished Master Baggins, we are waiting for you.' Kili said, annoyed, from the doorway.

'Right o, come along Daisy.'

Daisy put down her bit of unfinished cake and followed Bilbo, beginning to think that this was a very strange world she'd come to.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hoped you liked that chapter, I don't know when my next one will be. Hopefully by the end of the week though!
