Bonjour my fellow readers! Super sorry it took me awhile to post this chapter. I didn't think it would have taken this long to write this chapter but it did but it was fun writing it! So I feel like I rushed through this and if I did I promise not to do this for future chapters! I'm trying my best to upload chapters so you wouldn't have to wait but things do come up! Oh and I know that there are spelling and grammar mistakes, I see them too but I see it after I post... Enjoy the story! :D Disclaimer: I sadly don't own the Hobbit!

Maya squinted her eyes as she rose from her sleeping position. It was still slightly dark but the stars were slowly disappearing from the sky. Everyone was still sound asleep except for Thorin keeping watch. She looked out at the sky and saw an orange-yellow color which meant the sun was slowly rising to reveal morning. Maya quietly sat up and saw that Fili was lying right next to her asleep with Kili next to him a few spaces away. Maya threw over Fili's jacket on Fili and looked at him. She did like his braids but just remembered the awkwardness when she complimented him about that. Maya glanced and saw a dagger and carefully grabbed it. Maya tiptoed passed the camp and ran off into the woods.
The sun was barley positioning itself up high in the sky. Everyone slowly started to wake up.
"Where's Maya?" Fili held up his jacket.
Thorin quickly turned to see the Maya absent from where she was sleeping.
"Did she ran off again?" Fili asked.
"Her stuff is still here, but one of my daggers are missing," Fili stated.
"Everyone scattered to look for her.
"Thorin, you were on watch, how did you not see her?" Gandalf questioned.
Just before Thorin could say anything, a noise behind the some trees. Everyone grabbed their weapons and waited for whatever was on the other side. The noise came closer and closer.
"Good morning!" Maya smiled. She was carrying a bag over her shoulders.
"What's in the bag?" Thorin asked suspiciously as he walked over to her.
"My contribution for breakfast," Maya stated. "I felt bad for what I did and I want to prove to you that I'm not a burden. So I was thinking that why not attempt to get some food. Most of it is small things like berries and I got a couple of fishes."
Maya handed the bag over to Bombur and grinned happily.
"Here's your dagger, Fili," Maya said. "Sorry I didn't ask you but you looked like you were enjoying that sleep so I didn't want to bother you."
"I'm just happy that you didn't run off again," Fili said.
"I wouldn't do that again," Maya said.
Once breakfast was over, everyone continued on their journey.
Grass, hills, trees, and birds flying here and there were what Maya had seen repeatedly since the journey begun.
Maya had her arms around Fili to make sure she didn't fall off. She still had her phobia of heights but that was slowly disappearing.
How could people stay so quiet?
Nightfall had covered the sky with so many dazzling, bright stars. She's never seen so many stars in the sky at once. Maya wished she had a camera to take a picture of the scenic view.
Everyone settled down at camp. Some were sleeping, some were resting, and some were talking with each other. Maya sat with Fili and Kili by the roasting fire. The warmth felt so nice on Maya's skin as the cool breeze passed.
A creepy wolf-like howl interrupted the peaceful night.
"What was that?" Bilbo questioned to the others.
"Orcs," Kili started out and explained to Bilbo about Orcs.
Bilbo's face went pale and Kili and Fili started laughing. Maya giggled but stopped as Thorin scolded Kili for telling such a story.
"Sorry," Kili apologized.
"Do you think we'll run into orcs?" Maya asked. "Because I don't think I'd ever want to run into them.
"No, not that I would think so," Fili replied.

"Why won't any of these stupid keys work!" Hannah threw the keys down and kicked the air once again. "Wait till I get Becca, she'll pay…" Hannah grabbed the keys off the ground to see a weird looking key that wasn't on the set of keys before.
"What the hell?" Hannah picked up the key. It looked like a prop key from a theatre production but one she had never seen before. "Well, it's worth giving a shot." She inserted the key and with luck it turned. She gasped and opened the door. Hannah quickly swung the door open but there was no sign of Maya. She walked in and searched as the door closed behind her.
"Maya!" Hannah shouted at the top of her lungs. "Maya, you in here?" Hannah could have sworn Maya was in here. She walked back to the door. She turned one last time. "Maybe she did leave…" Hannah opened the door.

******************

Maya felt like the journey was déjà vu for her. She had lost count of the days that passed by quickly and slowly. The trees looked the same, the whole woods looked the same. Then with Maya's luck, it started to rain.
Oh great… and I don't have an umbrella…awesome….
"Fili, how long exactly is this trip?"
"Days, weeks, months…years…"
"Years!" Maya exclaimed.
"Just kidding, just weeks." Fili laughed.
"Meanie," Maya said and then started laughing.
Hours passed. Maya started to feel weak from just sitting and wished she could stretch but she knew Thorin wouldn't stop just to stretch. She was happy that it stopped raining. Her hair started to frizz and she absolutely hated that. It would take her some time to straighten her hair. It would look like Hermione's hair from first year except crazier with curls and waves.
They finally arrived in an area to stop for the night in an abandoned area.
"A farmer and his family used to live here…" Gandalf stated.
"What happened to them?" Maya asked looking at the ruins.
Before Gandalf could answer Thorin and him got into an argument which made Gandalf leave furiously.
"What did you say?" Maya asked.
"None of your concern," Thorin replied and walked to the group of dwarves.
"Bombur, get dinner started," Thorin ordered. "Fili, Kili, look after the horses."
Maya stayed by ruins.
"What are you looking at?" Bilbo questioned.
"The sad ruins of a family's home who was probably forced to leave. Imagine the horrified faces and the children. I know I don't them but it really saddens me."
"Wow…" Bilbo looked around. "I would feel depressed if I were to be forced out of my home."
The night covered the sky once again. Bilbo and Maya talked for some time about random subjects.
"Bilbo, bring these up to the lads," Bofur said as he handed the two bowls filled with food to Bilbo.
"I'll go with you," Maya said.
They walked through the woods and saw Fili and Kili just standing there.
"What are you guys staring at?" Bilbo asked.
"There were fourteen ponies and now there's twelve," Kili answered.
"Twelve? Where are the other two?" Maya asked.
They all heard a noise and saw a troll walking by with two other ponies, one each in it's large sausage arms.
"What are those?" Maya asked.
"Trolls," Fili stated.
"You two should go since you're the burglars," Kili and Fili grabbed the bowls from Bilbo's hands.
"What about you two?" Bilbo questioned.
"You two are fast and they won't see you," Kili said.
Bilbo and Maya looked at each other with worried faces and turned back. Their faces went into shock when they saw Fili and Kili completely gone.
"I've got your back," Maya patted Bilbo on the back.
What did I get myself into?
Bilbo and Maya sneaked past the trolls as quietly and quickly as they could before approaching the jail pen that the ponies were put in. They tried to untie the ropes but they were too tight. Bilbo spotted a knife on one of the troll's belt and went for it while Maya still tried to unloosen the ropes.
No luck! There has to be another way!
Maya searched for another way. She heard a muffled voice from inside the pen. Maya looked behind one of the ponies and to her surprise saw Hannah!
Hannah!
"Maybe it will taste good!" said one of the trolls.
Maya climbed the pen and ducked as one of the trolls turned. She crawled to Hannah.
Oh my god, Bilbo!
She untied Hannah.
"What are you doing here?" Maya asked with confusion.
"I was just gonna ask you the same thing!" Hannah whispered. "What's going on?"
Kili popped out from the woods armed with his sword ready.
"Let him go!" Kili yelled.
"Okay," the troll said and threw Bilbo on Kili and the rest of the dwarves ran out of the forest starting a small battle.
"I'll explain later!" Maya said and ran to help. "Just stay there!" Maya hopped over the fence. She ran towards the fight and Fili chucked a sword to her.
Hannah was in awe but felt secluded from what was going on. She got up and ran towards the battle not knowing what was going to happen. She spotted a sharp stick and plunged it in one of the troll's foot making him let go of one of the dwarves who continued fighting. Right as she pulled the stick, the troll forcefully grabbed her and his grip become tighter. Hannah screamed for help and tried getting out.
An arrow fly across Hannah's face and into the troll's arm. He had let go of her and she was falling. Kili sprinted to Hannah and caught her right as she was about to land on the ground. Hannah was in complete shock when he set her down and ran to fight.
"Bilbo!" one of the dwarves shouted.
"Maya!" Fili shouted.
Bilbo and Maya were being held captive. Maya tried to escape but since she was hanging up side down it didn't work.
Everyone stopped. Thorin threw down his sword and everyone followed his action.
Half the dwarves were tied in bags while the others were slowly being roasted over a fire.
This is the end, isn't it?
"There's a special way to cook dwarves," Bilbo said.
"Oh, yeah and what's that?" one of the trolls asked.
"You have to um… skin them first," Bilbo quickly responded.
A troll picked up the scared looking Bombur.
"Wait!" Maya hopped to where Bilbo was. "Don't you know that eating them whole without cooking them will just give gas!" Maya improvised.
"I'll take my chances," the troll almost said.
"They have worms!" Loads of them…in their… tubes!" Bilbo continued.
All the dwarves started to complain except for Thorin.
"He's right!" Hannah hopped to Maya and Bilbo. "They have so many worms that if you eat them they'll pop out of you stomach!"
Everyone looked at Hannah.
"It was better in my head…" Hannah whispered.
The dwarves were still complaining but Thorin realized what they were trying to do. Then all the dwarves started to agree once they knew what was going on.
Gandalf appeared out of nowhere.
"Can we eat him too?" a troll questioned.
Then light broke loose from where trees were and the trolls slowly transformed into stone.
Everyone helped each other out.
"And who are you?" Thorin had as sword against Hannah's chin.
"Woah! Don't hurt her!" Maya shouted.
"Do you know her?"
"Of course, she's my friend." Maya confirmed. "If you hurt her…"
"What's your name?" Thorin glared at Hannah which made her sort of uncomfortable.
"Hannah," she replied.
Thorin looked at her and walked off.
"What was that about?" Hannah asked Maya.
"That's just Thorin, you get used to him."
Hannah spotted the dwarf that had saved her earlier.
"Who's that?" Hannah asked.
"Why don't you go found out?" Maya pushed her towards Kili. "She wants to talk to you. Have fun!" Maya walked to Fili.
"Um, hi," Hannah started off.
"Kili, at your service," Kili bowed down and then kissed her hand. Hannah slightly blushed.
"Hannah, at yours," Hannah said. "Thanks for saving me back there but just to warn you I'm sort of a ninja, not some damsel in distress so you don't have to save me all the time."
Kili chuckled. "Pleasures all mine, Hannah." There was an awkward moment. "So your Maya's friend?"
"Yup," Hannah said.
"Okay," Kili said. "Well, I'll see you later."
"Yeah, for sure."
Kili walked off helping others as Maya walked back to Hannah.
"That must have been the most awkward conversation between two people I have ever seen," Maya commented. "So, you do have a crush on him or something?"
"No!" Hannah said. "Well, I'm grateful that he saved my ass but I don't like him like that, I think."
"Okay then," Maya said.
"Can you just tell what's going on?" Hannah pleaded
"I will, when we're heading there, it's sort of a long story."
They released the ponies as they started to mount them. Hannah started to follow Maya but she went with Fili. Hannah stood there not knowing what to do.
"Hannah!" Maya shouted to get her attention. "Ride with Kili!"
Hannah nodded and tried to not blush in front of anyone.
"Hannah, right?"
Hannah nodded once more.
Kili stuck out his arm to help Hannah. She took it and was hoisted up. As she landed behind Kili, a squeak came out of her mouth.
"What was that?" Kili asked.
"My dignity…" Hannah turned red. "I swear I don't normally squeak like that. I just underestimated my landing."
Kili started laughing and Hannah punched his arm, and then she started to laugh herself.
"You hit pretty hard," Kili rubbed his arm.
"Duh!" Hannah said. "So don't get on my bad side!"
"Because getting on Hannah's bad side will just result to a bruised arm in the future!" Maya said.
"What Maya said!" Hannah said. "You know me so well."
"Of course!" Maya laughed. "So want me to explain to you what's going on?"
"Please do!"
They found to where the trolls were hiding and explored it.
Maya and Hannah looked at all the treasures that were stored in the cave.
"Hey, Maya, here's a sword for you!" Fili handed her a dusty sword with some cobwebs still attached to it. "So you can stop stealing my weapons."
"Oh very funny!" Maya smiled.
"So are you and Fili together?" Hannah asked.
"What?" Maya asked.
"You two act like a couple," Hannah stated. "If you aren't you should. You two would look pretty cute together."
"Really?" Maya asked. Maya pulled Hannah to the side. "Don't' say anything but I do think he's pretty cute but I don't know if I like him like him."
"I get you," Hannah said.
"And what about you and Kili?" Maya questioned. "You two sure hit it off."
"Psh, psh, what are you talking about?" Hannah tried to hide the blush.
Everyone started to exit the cave. Kili walked up to Hannah and Maya.
"I found this sword since you don't have a weapon," Kili said to Hannah. "Picked it out myself. Oh and a bow and some arrows, just in case you get bored with the sword.
"Thanks," Hannah smiled. "Promise to teach me?"
"Of course, it would be an honor."
Kili walked off.
Maya smiled at Hannah. Hannah lightly punched Maya in the arm.
"Don't look at me like that." Hannah said.
"Okay!" Maya smiled and walked to Fili.
Hannah smiled to herself. She had butterflies in her stomach.
Maybe Maya's right…

Hannah is now in Middle Earth! Pretty sure you guys knew this would happen but why is she exactly there? You'll find out! So Hannah is starting her crush on Kili but won't admit it because it would make her look weak and girly! As for Maya, she told Hannah that she technically likes Fili but still wants to take it slow! Aww! Will Thorin accept ever accept Maya and now Hannah? Who knows? Please review! I'm trying my best to remember what happens in the movie but luckily the DVD come out tomorrow/today! Is anyone going to get as soon as possible?
