Ah! Over 100 hundred reviews! Thank you so much, I never thought I'd get this much feedback and support. Thank you everyone!

The holidays end tomorrow so I might not update as often as I have been doing, because of school work.

I'll see if I can get them to Rivendell in this chapter!

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

'Bifur, Nori and Oin have gone to collect the supplies, they will catch us up' Ori explained as Daisy questioned where the three dwarves were off to.

'Oh ok then' Fili and Kili helped her to her feet.

'Can you walk ok?' Kili asked, unsure whether to let her arm go or not.

'I'll manage'

'Fili! Kili! I need you' Thorin called.

'His majesty awaits' Kili said dramatically. 'See you in a minute' and with that the two of them left, leaving Daisy with Bilbo. The two of them walked in silence until Bilbo spoke up.

'It really was very brave of you my dear,' he said and Daisy's mind flashed back to what Ori had said the previous night. 'And I'm glad everyone seems to accept you now, even if it did take three trolls to almost eat them to make it happen. Are you sure you're alright?'

'I'm fine, I think.' Daisy sighed, rubbing her ribs. They did rather hurt but then Daisy suspected that being grabbed multiple times by a troll had something to do with it. 'I'm more tired than anything,' she yawned as she said this. None of them had got any sleep, and it was beginning to show. On more than one occasion one of the dwarves had to stop to splash water of his face. Then Kili suddenly cried out:

'We've found it!' The company turned to face the young dwarf, who was standing on top of a large rock a few hundred feet away. They all hurried as quickly as they could to where Kili was standing. The smell was the first thing that hit Daisy.

'Oh my god' She whispered, covering her nose with her hand.

'It seems we have found their cave' Gandalf said. 'Be on your guard.' Thorin jumped down into the entrance, followed closely by his nephews and Dwalin. Bofur and a couple others also went in, but the majority stayed outside, including Daisy and Bilbo.

'Well,' Kili said as he came back out. 'You'll be pleased to know you didn't miss out on anything special Daisy. In fact, I would have been quite miffed if those trolls had expected me to live in that' a couple of the dwarves let out a chuckle.

'Ah don't worry lass, we wouldn't have let them' Balin patted her on the back.

'Daisy! Bilbo!' Gandalf called as he came out of the cave. 'I found some things that might be of use to you.' He handed Bilbo a small sword. 'It's of elven make which mean it will glow blue when orcs or goblins are near.' Bilbo looked at it.

'I can't take this. I've never used a sword in my life.' He stammered, trying to give the sword back to Gandalf.

'And I hope you never have to.' Gandalf said seriously.

Bilbo held the sword in his hand unwillingly whilst Gandalf turned to Daisy.

'Now I've found quite a handy little dagger which will be easier for you to use should you need to, though I think with your masses off bodyguards you'll be just fine.' Daisy realised he was talking about the dwarves. 'It's got a little belt so you can attach it to your dress.' Gandalf handed her the weapon and went off to talk to Thorin. Daisy was just about to carefully leave the dagger behind when one of the dwarves shouted:

'There's something coming!'

Daisy and Bilbo got dragged into the circle of dwarves, who were pointing their weapons madly in all directions. The sound of something rushing towards them could be heard, and Daisy prayed it was not more things that wanted to eat them.

Suddenly a great sleigh type craft burst through the trees, and when it slowed Daisy could see it was pulled by rabbits, and the driver was a rather small man, who had beard with similar traits to Gandalf.

'Radagast!' Gandalf cried. 'Radagast the Brown! What on earth are you doing here?' Gandalf eyed him suspiciously, and Daisy had a niggling feeling that Radagast hadn't come bearing good news.

'Well I was looking for you Gandalf' Radagast said, stepping of his sleigh. Then he stopped, and kept mouthing at Gandalf, as if he couldn't quite remember what he was going to say. 'It was right here, on the tip of my tongue! Oh! It's not a thought at all; it's a silly old stick insect.' Bilbo shot a disgusted look at the wizard as Gandalf pulled a stick insect out of Radagast's mouth.

'Now Radagast, what were you going to tell me?' Gandalf lead Radagast a little way off so they could speak in private.

'Well he seems a little….odd' Dori finally concluded as he sat down.

'We need to get moving,' Thorin muttered as he started to pace around, glancing at the two wizards.

After what seemed like an age Gandalf and Radagast made their way back towards the company, and Thorin stopped his pacing much to the relief of everyone else.

'Well?' Thorin asked expectantly. A loud howl echoed around them, and Daisy knew that whatever had made that noise was not good.

'Was that wolf?' Bilbo said from beside her. 'Are their wolves out there?' He was panicking.

'A wolf?' Bofur said, stepping wearily around the group. 'No, that is not a wolf.'

Daisy's eyes widened as she saw something that looked very much like a wolf, only it was much much larger, appear on top of the rocks above them. She was going to cry out but the creature leapt down towards the group and if had not been for Thorin attacking it, it would have ripped Fili, Kili herself and Bilbo to pieces. They heard a growl behind them and another one leapt down from the other side. Kili was quick enough to react this time and shot an arrow at it whilst Thorin finished it off.

'Warg Scouts!' Cried Thorin, drawing Kili's arrow from the beast. 'Which means an orc pack is not far behind.'

The reality of the world she'd come to set in on her. It was dangerous, and if Daisy was honest, she didn't know if she could handle it. Thorin, as if he sensed her panic looked at her quickly, but then Gandalf shouted.

'Who did you tell about your quest? Beyond your own kin?'

'No one' Thorin answered.

'Who did you tell?' Daisy sensed something was very wrong as Gandalf rarely got this angry, he sounded very worried.

'No one, I swear!' Thorin replied. 'What in Durin's name is going on?' Daisy looked widely around but found that the dwarves looked as confused as she was.

'You are being hunted.' Gandalf said solemnly. Fili and Kili moved Bilbo so he was closer to Daisy, and then moved either side of the pair as if trying to protect them. Daisy felt herself trembling, and she tried not to show her obvious fear.

'We've got to get out of here. Now!' Dwalin stated. Even he seemed anxious.

'We can't!' Came a cry and Daisy looked up to see Ori. 'We have no ponies! They bolted!' Several groans erupted from the company as they realised they were in even bigger trouble.

'I can draw them off' Radagast said suddenly, Daisy had quite forgotten he was there.

'These are Gundabad Wargs, they will out run you!' Gandalf warned but Radagast did not seem deterred by this warning and Daisy almost admired him for that.

'These are Rhosgobel Rabbits!' Radagast said matter of fact-ly to Gandalf. 'I'd like to see them try'

Fili and Kili snorted and Thorin shot them a dirty look, as if to say This man, however weird he may be, is about to save us. So shut the hell up.

Gandalf nodded and wished Radagast luck. They could hear more howls as Radagast left the clearing and Daisy looked at Bilbo in fear.

'We must hurry!' Gandalf cried and made off, the company following him.

They soon came to the edge of the forest and saw Radagast in the distance with an alarming number of Orcs riding on top of the Wargs behind him.

'This way!' Gandalf hurried straight for the cover of a rock. They all gathered there and made a run to the next rock as soon as the coast was clear. Daisy was struggling to keep up, her ribs were hurting and she'd never been a strong runner, or a strong anything for that matter. Fili and Kili seemed to notice this and stayed close to her in case she needed a hand. She nodded thanks to them just as Thorin cried out:

'Ori, no!' Daisy thought the worst but looked up just in time to see Thorin pull Ori back from the edge of the rock so he wasn't seen. 'Where are you leading us?' His gruff voice asked Gandalf in frustration but Gandalf paid him no heed, instead he ran to the next rock and motioned for everyone else to follow him.

'What now?' Balin asked just as the sound of heavy breathing above them reached their ears. They all looked at one another in fear, until Kili silently put an arrow in his bow. Fili put a hand to his brother's shoulder and nodded at him, and Kili stepped out and managed to shoot the Orc. However, as Daisy was learning, things never seemed to go to plan and the Orc fell in front of them, as did the Warg, and they were both still very much alive.

Dwalin swung an axe and killed the Orc in an instant whilst the others took on the Warg. They'd made so much noise that Daisy was sure that the other Orcs had heard, and by the look on Gandalf's face he thought the same thing.

'Quick!' Gandalf called and they were all running now as the sounds of howls meant their cover had been blown. Daisy briefly hoped that Radagast was ok, but all thoughts for the brown wizard were lost were she could see a dozen or so Wargs chasing them out of the corner of her eye. They made it to a little mound and even though she felt her lungs had burst, Daisy knew well enough that unless they got out of there soon, they wouldn't be getting out at all.

'Where's Gandalf? Oin growled. Daisy and Bilbo whirled around-the wizard was no where to be seen.

'He's abandoned us!' Gloin yelled as he swung an axe at a Warg's head. Kili ran past and started to fire arrows, and even Ori had used his slingshot. The Orcs were closing in around them and Gandalf was still nowhere to be seen. Bilbo held his sword out in front of him, waving it wildly at an Orc who was cornering him.

'Bilbo!' Daisy cried, trying to help him. Oh my god, they are going to kill us. Daisy, breathe. What happened in England stays in England. From now on-

'Daisy watch out!' Thorin shouted as she felt something whiz past her ear. Unfortunately she didn't quite escape the knife's touch as it embedded itself neatly in her outstretched forearm. She gritted her teeth to try and stop herself from crying out.

'Over here you fools!' Daisy turned to see Gandalf standing above a rock that looked like it led somewhere. There was a thud to the side of her where a Warg had fallen down, struck by one of Gloin's axes. Strong arms enclosed her round her middle and she was picked up. She looked round and to her surprise discovered it was Thorin carrying her, and not Fili or Kili.

They reached Gandalf and Thorin slid Daisy carefully down into the little cavern under the rock before turning round and shouting: 'KILI! Get here now!' Kili dropped down into the hole with them and they all stayed there, breathing heavily.

'Here, let me see your arm' Thorin said gruffly, making his way over to Daisy. 'I'm going to have to take this dagger out. It's going to hurt.' Daisy looked at him with wide eyes. 'Daisy if I don't get the dagger out it will only make it worse.' He said, growing a little exasperate with the girl. Bilbo came over and held her hand whilst Thorin, in Bilbo's words, 'You violently ripped out that dagger Thorin!'. Thorin quickly bandaged it in a cloth that he'd somehow managed to get whilst Daisy stood still, trying not to be a pain by complaining.

'Hopefully it won't get infected.'

'Hopefully?' Bilbo almost shrieked. Thorin growled and was a bout to make a reply when the sound of horns could be heard, and an Orc tumbled down into the hole with them. Thankfully it was dead, and Daisy was trying to concentrate on making the pain go away to take much notice of its corpse.

'Elves' Thorin spat in disgust as he pulled out an arrow. Bilbo lightened up a bit at the mention of elves.

'I can't see where the pathway leads! Do we follow it or not?' Dwalin shouted from a little way away.

'Follow it of course!' Bofur replied hurriedly and rushed after Dwalin.

'I think that would be wise,' Gandalf muttered. 'Is that arm of your ok Daisy?' Daisy nodded, trying not to make it seem that she was in pain.

'Just keep holding it' Bilbo told her. 'When we stop I'll bandage it properly. If you're in too much pain tell me, ok?'

'Thanks' She whispered.

They seemed to walk for hours, and everyone was beginning to think that maybe Gandalf had no idea where he was leading them.

Until, of course, they came to the end and were greeting by the most beautiful sight Daisy had ever seen.

'The valley of Imladris' Gandalf said, almost proudly. Daisy was vaguely aware that her mouth was hanging open.

'Rivendell' Bilbo breathed with a sort of dreamy look on his face. A wave of realisation hit Daisy; this was where she departed from the dwarves. Even though Rivendell did seem a lovely place, and she could practically feel the angelic like vibe radiating off it even from the top of the valley, she had grown sort of…fond of these dwarves and had felt more lively than she had done in ages. And not to mention she would miss Bilbo so terribly much, and Ori. And, all of them really.

'Which is why you will leave the talking to me' Gandalf huffed and Daisy realised that he had begun to walk down the side of the valley.

'What's wrong Daisy?' Bilbo asked. 'You've gone a bit quiet.'

'This is Rivendell.' Daisy said sadly.

'Yes, yes it is.' Bilbo replied. 'It's such a beautiful place though, I'm sure you'll feel better once-'

'No Bilbo, this is Rivendell.' Daisy said again. 'This is where I'm leaving you.'

Bilbo, who had clearly forgotten this, paled visibly.

'Goodness me.' He said. 'I'd quite forgotten that.'

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

There you have it! Next update sometime in the week.

Thank you all so much! It will get interesting as things will be revealed at Rivendell!
