Part. 5

Thorin yawned and stretched on boarding up from his comforting bed. He opened the curtains and saw that the sun was already high. Wait a minute? High. In general, when he woke up as the sun was barely even surfaced. He watched with dismay out at same than he putting clothes on. Whether it he had really sleeping comfortably. After receiving the clothes on, he padded to the kitchen to make coffee. Thorin looked around, Fili and Kili was missing. They were probably already on their own trips, Thorin thought, a warm smile on his face rises.

Dwarf brothers were living with him at all times. Previously he had lived in the same cottage with Fili, Kili and their mother Dis. Dis had died of bad pneumonia about twenty years ago, and ever since Thorin was taken care of lively brothers. He smiled at the best memories and sipped hot coffee.

Suddenly somebody was knocking on the door sharply. Thorin sighed; wonder what really the matter was? He got up and started walking towards the door, which is now already beaten. "I'm coming!" Exclaimed Thorin with a gruff voice, and in an instant he was at the door. Behind it, stood frantic Bofur. "Come soon, Thorin! Something terrible has happened!" He exclaimed and almost pulled Thorin along. "Wait a minute Bofur. What has happened? What's the matter?" But Bofur just pulled him and said: "You have to see this for yourself. Fili and Kili are in danger."

Thorin was startled. Fili and Kili… in danger? He started to run after Bofur who led him through the village to the gates. There were already Dwalin, Balin, Oin and Gloin. Everyone had a serious look on their faces. Dwalin was holding some kind of message, and stared at it, looking terrified. Horror pictures began to run in Thorin's mind. What had happened? Why everyone looked like that? Fili and Kili dead. Fili and Kili tortured. Fili and Kili drowned. He was dizzy. What had happened?

Balin poked Dwalin and showed Thorin. His old friend started to walk towards him with slow steps putting out the message for him. Thorin took it slowly and started to reading ugly text:

Good Thorin Oakenshield, he started.

I ask you kindly to come to Hill of Undolin at midnight, if you still want to see your son alive.

Sincerely,

Old Friend of Yours

My son? Thorin thought. It had to mean Fili and Kili! Thorin clenched the letter in his trembling hands. Fili and Kili. Could not be true. Could not be true. His only kin were prisoners of somebody, who called himself and Old friend of him. What is this supposed to mean? He held the letter and turned up to Dwalin. "When did you find this?" He asked in a serious tone. "Just a moment ago. We sent Bofur right away to get you." Answered Dwalin in a quiet voice. "Has anyone seen them in the day?" Thorin went on and then looked at all with the most serious eyes. "No one. They have probably already leaved before the sun rises on the hunt." Answered Balin.

Thorin sighed. Now was not the time to despair. The boys had to save. Dis would kill him if she was still here. "Balin, Dwalin and the others. Come with me. Let's make a plan."
