The Journey Begins

The morning Bilbo woke up he started to run around like a chicken with his head cut off. Bilbo had decided he is going on the journey with Gandalf and the dwarfs. Reyna had calmly grabbed the bags she had pack the night before and everything else they needed for the journey. She then guides Bilbo out the door. The two of them catch up with the dwarfs and Gandalf quickly.

"Wait! Wait!" yell Bilbo.

"Good to see you have shown up, Bilbo. Reyna, good to see you too," Gandalf says. A pony and a horse are brought over to Bilbo and Reyna. Bags of money are passed around from the bet the dwarfs and Gandalf made. Reyna rolls her eyes at them while Bilbo looks wide eyed. For the ride, Bilbo talks with Gandalf, Kili, Fili, and many of the dwarfs. They try to talk to Reyna but she does not answer them or seem to pay attention to them. But Kili and Fili won't give up trying to talk to Reyna. Reyna sighed. She only came on this journey to protect Bilbo. Talking with the dwarfs or Gandalf and protecting them was not on Reyna's to do list. Protecting strangers only ended up in pain. The group soon found a spot to stay for the night.

"So how did you and Reyna meet, Bilbo? asks Fili.

"Yea. I want to know too," says Kili.

"Well Reyna and I met twenty years ago. And Reyna only looks like she age two years snice I met her," answers Bilbo. Gandalf looks over at Reyna who is lounging on a tree. "Interesting. To only look like you age two tears in a twenty year time period," Gandalf thinks.

"Wow. But what happen when you met Reyna?" asks Ori. Most of the dwarfs had come closer to Bilbo to hear the story.

"Twenty years ago I met Reyna when I was walking home. She was in the field outside my house. Passed out she was. So I dragged Reyna into the house and put here on the couch. For the night I took care of her. When she awoke, Reyna did not trust me. And she didn't trust me for many moons. But Reyna could not go home as she did not have one. Soon she began to trust me and I began to see her like a daughter. My house became a home to her. But some time I see her staring at the moon with a longing look on her face," answers Bilbo.

"But what is Reyna and where did she come from?" asks Kili.

Bilbo looks over at Reyna and answers, "That is a question for Reyna to answer. And it will take a long time for Reyna to trust you. Then longer to answer your questions. Trust me, the same thing happen to me. But she then started to trust me. Once Reyna trusts you and becomes your friend she becomes the best friend anyone can have."

"How long do you think it will take for Reyna to trust is?" asks Fili.

Bilbo sighs and answers, "It is hard to tell. It might take the whole journey. She is very picky when it comes to trusting people."

"Telling stories about me now?" asks Reyna. The dwarfs and Gandalf jump not hearing walk up behind them. Bilbo didn't jump because he is use to Bilbo walking up behind him without a sound.

"How did you do that?" yelps Kili.

Reyna smirk and answers, "Very easy. I walked over here with my legs. Very useful thing they are." Kili glares at her for the answer but does not say anything. "I see the pup has nothing to say." Kili's eyes burn in anger and he lunges at Reyna before Fili could stop him. Reyna easily dances out of Kili way and grins at him with fangs on view. "I see the pup wants to play."

Before Kili can lunge at Reyna again, Thorin growls, "She is baiting you Kili. Don't listen to her." Kili stops and glares at Reyna but listens to his uncle. Bilbo gives Reyna a look of disappointment but only gets a smirk in return. Bilbo throws his hands up in the air and walks over to his pack. Soon Kili and Fili go off to take their turn on watching the ponies and horses. A little while later, Bilbo goes to take dinner to Kili and Fili. Reyna was off who knows where and Gandalf had left when the story was over.

Bilbo walks up to Kili and Fili quietly arguing over something. "What is wrong?" asks Bilbo.

"Well there were fourteen ponies and two horses," answers Fili.

Kili finishes, "Now there is ten ponies and no horses."

"And snice you're the burger," says Fili.

"We think you can go and get them," finishes Kili. Kili and Fili pull Bilbo over to where the ponies and horses are. There were three trolls.

"Good luck," says Kili and Fili while they leave. Bilbo looks at the trolls and walks as quietly to the horses and ponies. But while he was cutting the rope to the animals, the one troll used him as a tissue. Then the dwarfs busted out of the woods to save Bilbo but ended up in tied bags themselves when one of the trolls threaten Bilbo's life.

Meanwhile Reyna has just caught a couple of rabbits for dinner. She cooked them and ate a whole one herself. The rest of the rabbits Reyna packed up for the road. Walking back to camp, Reyna took her time. "Why did Bilbo want to go on this journey? It will only bring Bilbo pain and stuffing. If Bilbo is lost on the journey then it will be her own fault that Reyna did not protect him enough."

When Reyna made it back to the camp she found it empty. "What are those dwarfs up to now?" Reyna though angrily. Pain or death will be brought to whoever or whatever if Reyna finds a single hair out of place on Bilbo. Reyna picks up the sect and follows it to the troll's camp. The dwarfs and Bilbo are tried up. "Is Bilbo trying to tell the trolls how to properly cook the dwarfs? Yes he is."

Reyna strolled out into the middle of the camp. "Let the hobbit go and I will not kill you," snarls Reyna.

"Reyna!" hiss Bilbo.

"And the dwarfs," added Reyna.

The biggest troll kneed down and laughs, "What will make me listen to a tiny thing like you. There are three of us and one of you."

"I may be smaller than you too. But I am a lot stronger than the three of you combine," snarls Reyna. The trolls laugh but before the kneeing troll can move a sword wipes out and slices into the troll's neck. The troll falls like a rock. This startles the other two trolls but before they can move Reyna is on them. Shen jumps onto the one troll's head and sinks her sword into it. Before that troll falls Reyna is on the next troll that the troll that used Bilbo as a tissue earlier. She sinks the sword in that troll too and flips off the troll afterwards. Reyna puts out the fire before using her claws to cut the wood holding the dwarfs that were going to cook. Then Reyna uses her claws to cut the bags Bilbo and the others are in. The dwarfs stare at Reyna in shock. How could she have done that?" is the though the runs through the dwarfs' head. Bilbo runs up to Reyna and hugs her. Reyna hugs Bilbo back and starts to lead him away.

"How did you do that," demands Thorin while standing in Reyna way.

Reyna snarls "Get out of my way Thorin or I will do the same you I have done to the trolls." Thorin glares but before he can say anything Gandalf shows up.
