I don't own anything.

The Story

The Eagles set the dwarfs, Gandalf, Bilbo, and Reyna down a small mountain. Both Thorin and Reyna are laid down on their backs. Thorin gets up but Reyna does not move. Bilbo hovers by her as he presses cloth to her wound. The dwarfs and Gandalf look on sadly with tears in their eyes.

"Reyna wake up. I need you to wake up," pleads Bilbo. Thorin walks over and pulls Bilbo into his arms for a hug.

"Never in my life have I been wrong about two people. It is bad that I didn't realize until it was too late," says Thorin.

"Good to know all of you guys will miss me," says Reyna as she opens her eyes. She then sits up to see all of their shocked faces. "I see you are all glad to see me alive. You all are just bursting with joy." Bilbo is the first to move and he hugs Reyna. "I know you are glad to see me alive Bilbo but I am still hurt."

"I'm sorry Reyna. But how are you still alive? Nobody should be able to survive that. A sword went through your gut," asks Bilbo.

"Because of what I am Bilbo. If my father can survive a hand going through his gut then I can survive a sword going through mine," answers Reyna.

Thorin steps forward and says, "I think you owe us some answers." Reyna looks at him but her gaze is soft, not hard.

"I don't own you answers but I will give them anyway. But not right now. Let us get to a safer place," says Reyna. The group turns towards the distance where the mountain they want is location. Birds fly to the mountain.

"The birds are returning," awes Fili.

"Yes. Let us get moving," orders Gandalf. Bilbo and Thorin help Reyna to her feet. They make their way down the mountain with Thorin and Bilbo supporting Reyna. Everyone is amazed Reyna is on her feet much less alive. The group soon makes their way to a well-hidden cave. Gandalf makes his way to Reyna once she is set down. "Let me look at the wound, Reyna. I might be able to help it heal faster." Reyna nods and pulls her undershirt up. "Your wound is healing as we speak. No dwarf, human, elf, or wizard can start to heal that fast. What are you, Reyna? And how did you get into this world?"

"I will tell you. But to understand my story, you must hear my father's story first. But before I tell you either story let's get my wound wrap and supper cooking. I have a few rabbits wrap up in my bag." The wound is wrapped and supper put on the fire to cook.

"I think it is time for your tale," says Thorin. Everyone sits around Reyna for her tell her story.

"Yes. I think it is time," Reyna says. Before I begin my tale you must learn about my world. There are only two kinds of people in my world. Demons and humans. And each side hates the other very much. Like you dwarfs and elves' hate for each other. But there are humans and demons that don't hate each other. Some came together and a baby is born from the union. That baby is then hated from all. The baby comes from both sides but is accepted by neither. He is a half-breed. Half human and half demon. Most die young. They are born from low-level demons. If the demon that mothers or fathers it stays then that demon is usually killed by another stronger demon. The half-breed will outlive its human parent. By the time the human parent can die by old age the half-breed is still a child and still needs his parents. They die not to long later themselves. Half-breeds are not strong. They are easily picked out in a crowd. Demons can tell by smell and humans by the ears. Full blooded demons have pointed ears, not animal ears. A half-breed ages slower than a human. Fifty years past and the half-breed will only look like a five-year-old human child."

"Does that mean you are a half-breed?" asks Fili. Everyone else looks outraged at how half-breeds are treated.

"No," answers Reyna.

"But you have animal ears," says Kili.

"I will get to that. My father was a half-breed. His name was Inuyasha," Reyna says. "He was father by a very strong demon. Lord Inu no Taishō of the western lands. His mother was Lady Izayoi. On the night Inuyasha was born, Lord Inu no Taishō was fighting a dragon demon. He sealed the demon into a deep sleep to never wake up. The wounds he gained from the fight were life threatening if he did not rest. But Lord Inu no Taishō did not rest. His eldest old ask him to rest or he would be going to his death. But Lord Inu no Taishō did not and asked Sesshōmaru if he had any to protect. Sesshōmaru had no one. Lord Inu no Taishō left to save his newborn son and Lady Izayoi. It is the last time father and son saw each other. Now Lord Inu no Taishō carried three swords each one made from his fangs. Tetsusaiga can slay a hundred demons in one swing. It went to my father. Tenseiga can't hurt the living but can harm the dead. And heal the wounded and bring a hundred beings back to live in one swing. It went to my uncle. Sō'unga was not made from my grandfather's fangs. It could summon a hundred of dead souls in one swing. Only my grandfather could wield it for it had an evil dragon spirit in it. Each sword was also known as the sword of destruction, life, and death. Also seen as earth, heaven, and hell."

"Those swords are powerful. Why have you not used them before?" asks Gandalf.

"Because Tetsusaiga can only be use by those who have demon blood and no hate for humans. Tenseiga can be used by those who have compassion and don't hate humans. I was able to use Tetsusaiga because I was protecting Bilbo and Thorin. My father and uncle also told me the swords have a mind of their own," answers Reyna. "Now back to the story. Lord Inu no Taishō goes to where Lady Izayoi is. She had just given birth to a baby boy. But she was also dead by the time he got there. So Lord Inu no Taishō used Tenseiga to bring her back. The building was set on fire so he gave the Rode of the Fire Rat to cover her and the baby. The robe is fire proof. A man breaks into kill Lord Inu no Taishō. Before Lady Izayoi leave he gives the baby a name. Inuyasha. Lord Inu no Taishō dies that night so Lady Izayoi and his pup can live. Inuyasha lives forty years with his mother before she dies. Then there was no one to take care of him. He looked like an eight-year-old. Sesshōmaru and Lady Izayoi's family hated him and so did everyone else in the world for being a half-breed. Inuyasha learned to protect and feed himself. Even on his human nights. Once a month a half-breed turns human for a night or day. They become human on the same kind of they were born on. My father's human night was the new moon. He was born on the night of the full moon but he was born on the eclipse. One hundred and ten years went past and my father was still alone. He then fell in love with a young Miko name Kikyō who protects and purifies the Jewel of Four Souls. The jewel holds great and one can make a wish on it. My father wanted the jewel to become a full blooded demon. He hated being weak but as he tries to get the jewel he fell in love. Kikyō and Inuyasha decide for them to be together that Inuyasha would make a wish to become human. It was the idea that the wish would purify the jewel so together they can live a normal life. But another half-breed Naraku wanted the jewel himself. He could change his appear. So his disguised himself as both Inuyasha and Kikyō and trick them into thinking the other betray the other. Inuyasha went to take the jewel himself but Kikyō sealed him to the tree before he could leave with it. She herself died from a fatal wound from Naraku. She and the jewel were burned together. Fifty years later, Inuyasha wakes up from a young girl five hundred years from the future. She went by the name Kagome. Kagome was the reincarnation of Kikyō. She could subdue my father by saying the word 'sit'. Kaede had thrown the Beads of Subjugation that her sister Kikyō had made. Inuyasha and Kagome go on a journey to find the shards of the jewel after Kagome broke it trying to get it back. Inuyasha soon gets Tetsusaiga. He and his brother fight over it. But my uncle could not touch Tetsusaiga without getting hurt. For he hated humans and his own brother. Inuyasha and Kagome soon come across other companies. A young fox kit named Shippō who lose his father to the to the Demon Brothers. Then a monk named Miroku who has the wind tunnel in his hand. It was passed down from his grandfather. Naraku had cursed him with it. The wind tunnel had killed his father and grandfather and would have killed him if Naraku was not killed. Sango was a demon slayer and so was her whole village. When Sango, her father, little brother, and a couple others went to kill a demon for Naraku. But they didn't know it was Naraku as he was controlling this human lord. He took control of Sango's little brother and had him kill the small group. The demon slayers were buried but Sango had lived. Naraku sent thousands of low-class demons to kill her village. Everyone in the village was killed. She had dug herself out and Naraku told her a half-breed with the name of Inuyasha. Sango goes to kill Inuyasha but finds out the truth and joined them. Inuyasha wishes to become a full demon lessens over time. Tetsusaiga was found out to keep Inuyasha's demon half under control. When he became close to death by a demon, one that broke Tetsusaiga, his demon half took over. He killed anything that moved. He saw no friend or foe. By knocking him out brought Inuyasha back. His sword was fixed by one of his fangs being used. But the sword became too heavy and his demon side took over when almost die and was not touching his sword. He killed human bandits and felt guilt over in when he was brought back to himself. Those humans killed others but Inuyasha felt guilt as he never killed a human before. Inuyasha got used to the sword when he killed the same dragon demon that gave fatal wounds to his father. Sesshōmaru who was their enemy became their ally. And because of one little human girl. Her name was Rin. She had no family. When Rin was out in the woods one day, she found him injured and brought him food. When she was killed by a pack of wolf demons, Sesshōmaru brought her back to life with his sword. Tenseiga also wanted him to do it. Rin stays with Sesshōmaru and she softens his heart. Inuyasha and his group along with Sesshōmaru kill Naraku. But in the end, the jewel was the true enemy. It used Naraku to continue its existence in this world. Only one wish could make it go away and it was to make it vanished from that world. My father soon met my mother, a silver wolf demon, and they fell in love. That is my father's tale."

The group just sits in silence for a few minutes.

"How long did your father's journey take?" asks Bilbo.

"Three years," answers Reyna.

"Wow," breathes Fili.

"Your father is strong," says Kili.

"I think it is time for your story now," says Thorin softly.

"Yes. I do think it is time," says Reyna. "I was born two hundred years to a half-breed and a full demon. It makes me a three-quarter demon. For all my family knew I was the only three-quarter demon. I demon senses are more fine tune than my father's but I don't feel as my father did. My feelings were duller than his. He felt his emotions more keenly than I did. He was quick to anger and feel his other emotions. I was indifferent than my father in my emotions but not like my mother. My father didn't feel his emotions as strong as a human. But I still had the same night of weakness. I was on the same kind of night my father was born on. We shared the same night of being human. My mother made me a silver cloak to help hide and protect me. Fifty years ago, Ghost attacked my parents. He hated my father for killing Naraku. He watched us for a long time and attacked the night of the new moon. My mother was weak that night too. For she was in her last month of her pregnancy. Both my mother and my father put up a good fight against Ghost but in the end, he killed them. They fought Ghost to keep him away from me and I escaped. I had returned the next morning to find them dead. I buried them myself. From that moment on I trained to kill him. Twenty years ago I fought him. But I was injured badly and before he could kill me I ended up in the yard of Bag End. That is how I got here."

Thorin says, "That is quite a hardship to bear." A few hours have passed since the story began. The dwarfs and Gandalf didn't know what to say.
