Fili: 9

Kili: 7

I run towards Mister Fauin's house to pick up Kili. Mister Fauin is our tutor. He tutors me and Kili on an every other day schedule because the two of us together we get no work done.

Today Kili was being tutored today and I just finished helping Uncle Thorin at the forge and he said I can go pick Kili up. I run with all my might and soon the cottage is in view. I knock on the door and Fauin opens the door.

"Why hello Fili what can I do for you?" the old dwarf ask. His hazel eyes looking troubled while he rubs his graying beard.

"I am here to pick up Kili."

"Oh you just missed him lad. He set off home just 10 minutes ago." He tells.

That is strange. Kili isn't suppose to walk home alone and ever since the goblin attack he has been scared to be alone by himself without an adult dwarf near.

I nod and take off towards the forge to let uncle know. Something isn't right.

"Uncle! Uncle! I must talk to you!" I call as I near the forge.

Thorin walks out while wiping his hands.

"What Fili? I am very busy right now."

"Kili isn't at Fauin's. I went to pick him up and Fauin said that he went home by himself. You know Kili is afraid to be alone." I start to plead my case.

"That does not make sense. Go look for him. I'm going to try and finish up so I can look too." He tells me.

I nod and take off to look for young Kili.

Kili

I sit in the corner trembling. One minute we are learning fractions and the next he throws me in the basement and ties my hands together. I don't know why he is doing this to me.

I hear the door creak open and Master Fauin walks down.

"Your pesky brother has come looking for you. Stupid brat didn't think to look down here did he now?" he chuckles.

"Why are you doing this?" I whisper.

"You are too spoiled, your brother and you. I had to watch my brother die in my arms. Your brother is going to have it worst. He is going to be missing a brother. Not knowing if he lives or has died when really he sits here." He snickers.

I feel tears stream down my face.

Kili! Hear my plea! Come rescue me!

Fili

As I run towards the forest I get a feeling in my stomach. A feeling that Kili is not in the forest but where he was suppose to be the whole time. Fauin's.

I take off towards his house and when I reach his house I sneak around the back and look in the window the is in the basement. In the basement sits Kili curled up against the wall his arms tied.

"Well what do we have here?"

I jump and spin around to see Fauin standing there.

"Come here so we can talk."

I just take off running towards the forge running as fast as my feet can carry me.

Uncle is leaving when I get there.

"He is in Fauin's basement tied up!" I cry.

"Fauin's?"

I just grab his hand and I start to drag him to the house.

I then hear a cry that belongs to Kili.

"Come on brat! I need to get yer out of here before that bastard shows up again."

I lose it and let out a cry and run to attack Fauin.

I punch and kick and pull until I feel big arms wrap around me and pull me off.

"That is enough Fili. Dwalin and I will deal with him now." Thorin says.

I look up and see that Dwalin has also arrived at the scene. I then see Kili and I run and hug him.

"Oh Kili." I murmur and stroke the back of his head.

"I was brave Fee. I only cried once." H sniffles.

"This the only time?"

"No, this is the second time."

"Why are you crying? Your safe now."

"I'm crying because I get to stay with you and Uncle Thorin. I love you."

"I love you too."
