Chapter 12- Legends are Real

They'd gathered their stuff together really quickly. Apparently Gandalf had been called to a meeting. There there would be himself, Elrond, an elf woman called Galadriel and the head of Gandalf's order Sauroman. Thorin informed them that Sauroman would want to stop their quest so it was essential that they left now and met them in the mountains.

"Right let's go!"

They snuck from the Last Homely Home and walked up the pass into the mountains. Daisy and Anne sent a final look to Rivendell before jogging to catch up with Dwalin and Oin. Bilbo lingered and looked down at the beautiful valley.

"Master Baggins I suggest you keep up."

The hobbit nodded and walked with Bofur. The girls shot Thorin's back a glare and lagged back to walk with the hobbit. Bilbo was looking at his feet.

"He'll warm to you."

"I wish Anne. He only sees me as a hindrance. I've been no help so far."

Daisy looked at him and gave the hobbit a small hug.

"Don't say that Bilbo. You don't know what you'll do. Besides even if he doesn't..."

She looked to Anne who smiled.

"You got a friend in me."

"You got a friend in me!"

"When the road looks rough ahead. And you're miles and miles from you're nice warm bed!"

"You just remember what you're old pal said. Boy you got a friend in me!"

"QUIET! We're about to enter the mountain pass!"

The two girls huffed and leaned to whisper in Bilbo's ears.

"Yeah you got a friend in us!"

Bilbo chuckled and smiled a little.

"Thank you."

"No problem!"

The girls spotted Bofur and sped up to catch him. He chuckled.

"Nice singsong there!"

"Thanks."

"Love a spot-o Randy Newman!"

"Who?"

"Doesn't matter."

The sky began to chuck down heavily thick sheets of rain. Daisy huffed and pulled up her hood. Anne sighed as the rain soaked her hair. Soon they'd fallen back so that they were walking with Fili and Kili. The brothers chuckled at the soaked girls. Anne sighed again.

"And these were just washed."

Kili was about to reply when a loud crash stopped him. Daisy squinted through the haze of the rain and spotted a shape moving. A boulder came flying through the air and Thorin bellowed.

"Get to the wall!"

The boulder smacked against the wall above them and shattered over their heads. They all felt bits of stone hail upon them. Daisy wiped her damp fringe from her face and looked at Kili. The dwarf tried to smile, but another boulder flew through the air and the ground beneath their feet quaked. Balin spotted a large body moving.

"This is no thunderstorm. It's a thunderbattle! LOOK!"

Anne followed his arm and gasped at the large moving giant. Another giant smacked it as it rose from the ground.

"Well bless me. The legends are true! GIANTS STONE GIANTS!"

"BOFUR GET INTO THE WALL YOU FOOL!"

Thorin's shout was barely heard and their feet began to quake and the ground beneath then began to crack. Daisy felt Kili put an arm over her stomach so she wouldn't fall from the ledge. His other was stretched to reach his brother as the giant beneath them begun to get to its feet.

"Kili grab my hand."

"Fili!"

The brothers were pulled apart and Anne yelled. Daisy nearly jumped off the ledge when she saw Nori's face swing away from her.

"NO NORI!"

Kili grabbed her.

"ARE YOU CRAZY?!"

"FILI!"

The leg swung round and the other crashed into the stable mountain. Anne bumped into Gloin, in front of her. He grabbed her hand and pulled her to the safety of the other ledge. Kili had pulled Daisy into him and had her encased in his arms. They both ran onto the ledge and all shouted when the other leg spun and smashed into the rock face. Anne felt something in her rip apart.

"FILI!"

Thorin ran forward shouting. Dwalin was just ahead of him.

"They're alright! They're ok!"

Anne felt her knees weaken as she turned the corner and saw Fili lying on his back. Kili was supporting Daisy still, and she had her hands tightly knotted in his chest. The brunette girl ran at her friend and tackle hugged him. Fili laughed and smoothed Anne's hair. The girl buried her face in his chest and sobbed quietly. She couldn't lose him...not her friend. She felt Fili kiss the top of her head.

"I'm alright...see I'm ok."

Kili let Daisy run to Nori and the girl hugged her thief tightly. Then the prince proceeded to run to his brother. Anne reluctantly let Fili go and watched the brothers hug. She then whipped her head round when she heard Bofur shouting.

"Bilbo?! Where's Bilbo?"

"OH MY GOD BILBO!"

Daisy ran and crouched at the edge as the hobbit dangled. She, Bofur and a few others stretched out their arms to reach him. He tried to grab their hands, but slipped. Kili cried out when Thorin jumped down and grabbed the hobbit's jacket. He hoisted him up and Daisy grabbed him. The hobbit landed on the stone and rolled onto his back. Bofur hugged him. Then Thorin slipped.

"THORIN!"

Dwalin grabbed his friends arm and pulled. He lifted the king up and helped brush him off.

"Thought we'd nearly lost our burglar."

Thorin growled and glared at Bilbo.

"He's been lost since he left home. He should never have come. He has no place amongst us!"

Anne shouted, but Thorin merely stalked off. Daisy patted her back and gave her a hug as Dwalin proclaimed that he'd found a cave. Cold, damp and relieved they entered it. Thorin put a hand on Dwalin's back.

"Search to the back. Mountain caves are seldom occupied."

Dwalin nodded and lit a lamp. He marched around the cave and grunted.

"There's nothing here."

Anne walked over to the warrior, he lowered the lantern and sighed. He then opened his arms and allowed her to hide herself in them.

"I was afraid I'd lost ye again."

Anne nodded and Dwalin held her closer. Balin huffed and walked away from Thorin, he went over and hugged them both. Daisy had received tight hugs from all the Ri brothers and laughed lightly when Dori scolded Ori for the small cut he'd got from a smashed boulder. She then ran over and hugged both Fili and Kili. She slapped Fili's head.

"Ow!"

"Don't you ever do that again! Nearly gave me and Anne a heart attack!"

Kili chuckled and gave Daisy a hug. He squeezed her gently and buried his nose in her damp hair. Fili smiled warmly and looked over to where Anne was buried in Balin and Dwalin's arms. Daisy smiled and went to get her pack. Then they all laid down for sleep.

…

An arm fell heavily over Daisy's waist and her eyes snapped open. She felt herself being pulled into a chest and a sudden warmth surrounded her. The rise and fall of someone's chest moved against her back, her head rested on their other arm and their hands were entwined. She tried to turn to see who holding her and gasped. Kili mumbled in his sleep and pulled her closer. Their legs were tangled up and Daisy felt her cheeks burn red, though no one was awake to see it. Kili's breath brushed against her ear and she felt her heart quicken. Being this close to her friend had never had this sort of effect before on her. And she wasn't going to deny that she liked being this close to him. A foot stepped passed her face and Daisy pretended she was asleep.

"Where do you think yer going?"

That was Bofur. He was on watch. Daisy cracked open an eye. It was hard to hear anything with Kili breathing in her ear.

"Back to Rivendell."

It was Bilbo?! Bilbo was trying to leave. Daisy moved her head and glared at where she saw Thorin lying. From the quickness of his breathing, she could tell he was awake as well.

"What why? You're part of the company. You're one of us now."

"But I'm not though am I?"

Daisy tried to crane her neck to see, but Kili buried his face in the crook of her neck. Daisy gasped a little, but smiled when she felt his scruff scratch against the skin.

"Thorin said I shouldn't have come and he was right. I'm not a Took. I'm a Baggins...Shouldn't have run out my door..."

From his voice Daisy could tell that he sounded so knocked down with himself. Bofur tried to lighten the mood.

"Yer homesick I understand."

"No you don't you're DWARVES! You're used to this life. Living on the road. Never settling in one place. Not belonging anywhere."

Daisy saw Thorin's body go rigid and she internally flinched. Granted that Ered Luin had never been the company's home, but it had been homely enough.

"I'm sorry...that was uncalled for."

Bofur sighed.

"No you're right...we don't belong anywhere..."

There was an awkward silence where Thorin sighed heavily. Then Bofur spoke.

"I wish ye all the luck in the world. I really do."

Daisy wriggled a little in Kili's hold. How could Bofur be letting Bilbo leave?!

"What's that?"

From the corner of her eye, Daisy saw the blue glow from Bilbo's sword and gasped. The floor beneath them creaked and Thorin jumped up.

"Wake up! Now!"

Everyone jumped awake and Daisy quickly wriggled out of Kili's arms before he fully realised how they'd been lying. She pretended that she'd only just woken and glanced around to look at Anne. The floor burst open and they all fell through. Everyone was screaming.

Ok that's it we're almost at Goblin Town! YAY! HUZZAH FOR GOBLINS! (hazzah) Please review! TTFN xx
