Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid, Stormfly, Fishlegs, Meatlug, Snotlout, Hookfang, Tuffnut, Ruffnut, Barf and Belch traveled along with the Dwarves who were riding their ponies and Gandalf on his horse down a path through a wooded area. Devon rode on Luna's back while the Viking Teens rode on their dragons. The group continued through the area until they heard a voice calling out to them.
"Wait! Wait!" A voice shouts
Everyone stopped when they heard Bilbo's voice. Bilbo runs up from behind the group and catches up with them.
"Bilbo!" Devon exclaims
"I signed it!" Bilbo says
Bilbo walks over and hands Balin the contract. Balin takes the contract and inspects it with a pocket-glass. He then smiles at Bilbo.
"Everything appears to be in order. Welcome, Master Baggins, to the company of Thorin Oakenshield." Balin says
The Dwarves cheer, but Thorin doesn't look too impressed.
"Give him a pony." Thorin says
"No, no, no, no, that-that won't be necessary, thank you, but I-I'm sure I can keep up on foot. I-I-I've done my fair share of walking holidays, you know. I even got as far as Frogmorton once-Agh!" Bilbo says
Bilbo was cut off as Fili and Kili ride alongside him and pick him up from behind to put him on a pony.
(Moments later)
Bilbo rode on a pony, looking quite terrified. The pony neighs and tosses its head, making him quite uncomfortable. Devon and his friends rode up to Bilbo.
"Glad you finally decided to come along, Bilbo. I knew you would." Devon says
"I'm happy that you're here with us, young one." Luna says
Bilbo smiled at Devon and his friends as they smiled back at him.
"Come on, Nori, pay up. Go on." Óin says
Nori tosses a sack of money to in. Sacks of money begin passing between the Dwarves.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Óin says
Some of the Dwarves laugh.
"What's that about?" Bilbo asks
"Oh, they took wagers on whether or not you'd turn up. Most of them bet that you wouldn't." Gandalf says
"What did you think?" Bilbo asks
"Hmmm." Gandalf says
Gandalf catches a sack of money tossed to him and puts it in his bag.
"My dear fellow, I never doubted you for a second." Gandalf says
Suddenly, Bilbo sneezes loudly.
"Ohh. All this horse hair, I'm having a reaction." Bilbo
Bilbo searches his pockets for his handkerchief, but he couldn't find it and he looks up in shock.
"No, no, wait, wait, stop! Stop! We have to turn around." Bilbo says
The entire company comes to a halt and the Dwarves start objecting and asking what the problem is.
"What on earth is the matter?" Gandalf asks
"I forgot my handkerchief." Bilbo says
Bofur tears a strip of cloth from his clothing and tosses it to Bilbo.
"Here! Use this." Bofur says
Bilbo catches the rag and looks at it in disgust. The Dwarves laugh and begin to continue their journey.
"Move on." Thorin says
The group continues moving on as their journey began.
"You'll have to manage without pocket-handkerchiefs and a good many other things, Bilbo Baggins, before we reach our journey's end. You were born to the rolling hills and little rivers of the Shire, but home is now behind you. The world is ahead." Gandalf says
The company travels through many beautiful areas of Middle-earth, including forest, hills and green plains.
(Later that night)
The group camped near the edge of a cliff. As Glóin sleeps, tiny flying insects get sucked into his mouth every time he inhales and they are expelled when he exhales. Bilbo watches in disgust, then finally gets up and walks around. Most of the Dwarves were asleep while Gandalf, Fili, and Kili were awake, keeping watch. Devon and his friends were also awake while the Dwarves slept. Devon leaned back against Luna's left-side as the female Night Fury curled around him while she slept. Spyro and Cynder laid next to each other near Devon and Luna. The Viking Teens sat on the ground with their dragons. Bilbo walks over to his pony and gives her an apple, after checking to see that no one is looking.
"Hello, girl. That's a good girl. It's our little secret, Myrtle. You must tell no one. Sh, sh." Bilbo says
Bilbo hears a scream in the night air and becomes worried. Devon and his friends heard the scream as well. Luna and Toothless' ear flaps perked up as they woke up and heard the screams. Bilbo runs over to Fili and Kili.
"What was that?" Bilbo asks
"Orcs." Kili says
Another scream was heard. Thorin, who was dozing, jerks awake upon hearing the Orcs.
"Orcs?" Bilbo asks
"Throat-cutters. There'll be dozens of them out there. The lowlands are crawling with them." Fili says
"They strike in the wee small hours when everyone's asleep. Quick and quiet, no screams, just lots of blood." Kili says
Bilbo looks away in fright. Fili and Kili look at each other and begin laughing.
"You think that's funny? You think a night raid by Orcs is a joke?" Thorin asks
"We didn't mean anything by it." Kili says
"No, you didn't. You know nothing of the world." Thorin says
Thorin walks off to the edge of the cliff and looks out over the valley. Devon looks concerned at Thorin. Balin saw this and decided to speak.
"Don't mind him, laddie. Thorin has more cause than most to hate Orcs. After the dragon took the Lonely Mountain, King Thrór tried to reclaim the ancient Dwarf kingdom of Moria. But our enemy had got there first." Balin says
(Many years ago)
In the Battle of Azanulbizar, thousand of Dwarves and Orcs fight in front of the gates of Moria. Thorin, Thrór, Thráin, Balin, and Dwalin fought fiercely against the Orcs. One massive, pale, Orc wipes out many Dwarves with his mace, then engages King Thrór. This Orc was known as Azog, the Defiler.
"Moria had been taken by legions of Orcs lead by the most vile of all their race: Azog, the Defiler. The giant Gundabad Orc had sworn to wipe out the line of Durin. He began by beheading the King." Balin says
Azog, having defeated King Thrór, holds up his beheaded head as he roars. He then flings the head which bounces and rolls to Thorin's feet.
"No!" Thorin cries out
"Thráin, Thorin's father, was driven mad by grief. He went missing, taken prisoner or killed, we did not know. We were leaderless. Defeat and death were upon us." Balin says
The Orcs began overpowering the Dwarves, making them flee for their lives.
"That is when I saw him: a young dwarf prince facing down the Pale Orc." Balin says
Thorin charges toward Azog and faces him. Azog swings his mace and knocks away Thorin's shield first, then his sword. Thorin falls down an embankment and lands on the ground.
"He stood alone against this terrible foe, his armor rent, wielding nothing but an oaken branch as a shield." Balin says
Azog leaps to smash Thorin, but he, grabs an oaken branch lying on the round and manages to roll away in time. Azog continues wielding his mace against Thorin, who is still on the ground, but Thorin blocks his mace with the oaken branch, which he used as a shield. As Azog swings one last time, Thorin grabs a sword lying nearby and cuts off Azog's left arm from below the elbow. Azog clutches the stump of his arm as he howls in pain.
"Azog, the Defiler, learned that day that the line of Durin would not be so easily broken." Balin says
Azog was pulled away into Moria by other Orcs while Thorin rallies the Dwarves into battle.
"Du Bekâr! Du Bekâr!" Thorin yells
Thorin leads the Dwarves against the Orcs, letting out a battle cry. The Dwarves fought bravely and they seemed to have the advantage.
"Our forces rallied and drove the Orcs back. Our enemy had been defeated. But there was no feast, no song, that night, for our dead were beyond the count of grief. We few had survived." Balin says
After the battle was won, the battlefield was covered in the corpses of Dwarves and Orcs. The surviving Dwarves weep with one another over their loss. Balin and Dwalin who were younger at the time hug and put their foreheads together as they weep. Balin, still weeping, looks up and sees Thorin framed in the sunlight, holding his oaken branch.
"And I thought to myself then, there is one who I could follow. There is one I could call King." Balin says
(Present time)
Thorin turns away from the view beyond the cliff. The entire group was now awake and standing in awe, staring at him. Thorin walks between them toward the fire.
"And the Pale Orc? What happened to him?" Bilbo asks
"He slunk back into the hole whence he came. That filth died of his wounds long ago." Thorin says
As Devon watched Thorin walked past him and his friends, the Dwarf prince reminded him of himself. Listening to the tale of Thorin fighting Azog, the Defiler made Devon remember all the times he had to face up against his evil arch enemy, Lord Thanatos, the powerful Keyblade Master of Darkness. Some of the battles played in his mind with some examples like their epic battle on the Isle of Darkness in the world of Pokémon or when he and his friends fought Lord Thanatos after he tried to possess the Screaming Death back on Berk or even back when he and his friends fought Lord Thanatos at the battle of the Black Gate in Mordor. Even then, Devon knew there would be even more struggles against Lord Thanatos in the future.
Balin looked at Devon and saw that he had some struggles of his own.
"Tell me, laddie. What is your story? I can tell that you must've had some struggles of your own." Balin says
Devon looked at Balin.
"In that, you're right, Balin. I did. Some of them had an effect on my life." Devon says
Devon then began to tell his story to the Dwarves.
"I was not always a Keyblade Wielder. Back then, I was just a child. My mother and father were both very strong Keyblade Masters. They had saved many worlds and fought bravely against the forces of darkness. But we all had a common enemy: an evil Keyblade Master named Lord Thanatos. My parents fought Lord Thanatos many times in epic battles, but he just kept on coming. Then, Lord Thanatos came to my home and killed my parents and I was left alone to fend for myself. My mother and father were the greatest Keyblade Masters ever and they still couldn't stop him." Devon says
The Dwarves felt sad upon hearing this. Even Bilbo and Gandalf felt sad. Luna, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens and the dragons all felt sad, knowing well-enough of Devon's hardship.
"Many years later, I was able to wield a Keyblade of my own and that was when my journey began." Devon says
Devon looked at Luna while she looked up at him.
"I met Luna in the forests of Berk and we became friends for life." Devon says as he petted Luna's head with his right-hand
Devon looked back at the rest of his friends.
"I met Hiccup and his friends, then later on we met Spyro and Cynder. Together, we traveled to other worlds and fought against the forces of darkness to save them. We were a great team." Devon says
A serious look then formed on Devon's face.
"But in almost every world we visited, we had to face off against Lord Thanatos who was a force to be reckoned with. Lord Thanatos was very powerful that he almost cast more than one world into darkness." Devon says
Bilbo and the Dwarves paled at the thought that such an evil being like Lord Thanatos could so powerful.
"And that's not even the worst of it. Lord Thanatos does not work alone. He serves a being that is more powerful than him. That being is known only as the Dark Lord of the Shadows. He's a being of pure evil that will stop at nothing until the entire universe is under his control." Devon says
The company paled even more and hoped that they would never meet such an evil being like the Dark Lord. Gandalf heard Devon speak of the Dark Lord of the Shadows and he knew that Sauron, the Lord of Mordor was evil. But to hear Devon say that this Dark Lord was more powerful and more evil than him made Gandalf even more concerned.
"It turns out, I'm the only one who can stand up to the Dark Lord and his power. For you see, I'm the Legendary Keyblade Master, a great warrior destined to bring an end to bring balance to Light and Darkness and ensure peace throughout the worlds." Devon says
"It sounds to me that you have a great, noble task before you, lad." Balin says
"Yes, I do. And I will see to it that it is done." Devon says
Devon looks back at his friends, then at Luna.
"But I know that I have my friends to back me up along the way." Devon says
"Well, you can know that we'll back you up too!" Kili says
"Aye!" Fili says
"Aye!" Glóin says
"Aye!" The Dwarves yell in unison
Devon smiled as he saw the Dwarves supporting him. Thorin heard the entire thing and just continued to stare out into the valley.
On another cliff across the valley, a group of Wargs and Orcs spied on the company. Yazneg, their leader, talks to the Orcs.
"Chita tu piel. Koz kota keno nien. (Send word to the Master. We have found the Dwarf-scum.) Yazneg says
(The Next Day)
The company rides through a muddy forest as it rains. They all look cold, wet, and miserable.
Here, Mr. Gandalf, can't you do something about this deluge?" Dori asks
"It is raining, Master Dwarf, and it will continue to rain until the rain is done. If you wish to change the weather of the world, you should find yourself another wizard." Gandalf says
"Are there any?" Bilbo asks
"What?" Gandalf asks
"Other wizards?" Bilbo asks
"There are five of us. The greatest of our order is Saruman, the White." Gandalf says
Devon and his friends heard Gandalf mention Saruman's name and they felt weary upon hearing him for they knew that Saruman became an evil Wizard during their journey with the Fellowship.
"Then there are the two Blue Wizards, you know, I ve quite forgotten their names." Gandalf says
"And who is the fifth?" Bilbo asks
"Well, that would be Radagast, the Brown." Gandalf says
"Is he a great Wizard or is he...more like you?" Bilbo says
Gandalf looks slightly offended.
"I think he's a very great wizard, in his own way. He's a gentle soul who prefers the company of animals to others. He keeps a watchful eye over the vast forest lands to the East and a good thing too, for always Evil will look to find a foothold in this world." Gandalf says
(Elsewhere)
The Wizard, Radagast, the Brown runs through a forest and stops to examine a dying plant.
"Not good. Not good at all." Radagast says
Radagast continues running through the forest, passing many dead animals lying around. Radagast plucks a mushroom and puts it in his bag. He feels and tastes the sap of a tree which appears to be infected. He starts to grow more and more worried. He whistles into the forest and a bird appears. Radagast lifts his hat and the bird and it's mate land in their nest which was on Radagast's head. Radagast gasps and runs over to a hedgehog lying on the ground which appeared to be dying. He cradles the poor animal in his arms.
"Oh no! Sebastian! Good gracious." Radagast says
Running through the forest, Radagast brings the hedgehog into his home, Rhosgobel. There, he attempts to cure the hedgehog using various medicinal and magical techniques, but to no avail. The hedgehog's family surround it and Radagast tells them to move.
"Move back! Give him some air for goodness sake!" Radagast says
Radagast continues his treatments, but they don't work. The hedgehog writhes in pain.
"I don t understand why it's not working; it's not as if it's witchcraft..." Radagast says
A strange look comes over his face and he speaks in a more serious voice.
"Witchcraft. Oh, but it is. A dark and powerful magic." Radagast says
Suddenly, Radagast looks up and sees several giant spiders crawling up the side of his house. Radagast hurriedly braces his door shut with a bench. The hedgehog suddenly croaks, gasping for air, then sighs it's last breath and dies. Radagast looked sad upon seeing this. The house began creaking with the sound of the spiders crawling over the roof. Radagast runs over to his staff and pulls out the blue stone embedded at the top. As all the small rodents and other animals in his house flee, Radagast cradles the dead hedgehog in his arms and utters a spell while holding the blue stone to the hedgehog's muzzle.
"Lerya laman naiquentallo. Sí a hlare ómaquettar. Na coilerya en-vinyanta." Radagast chants
The spiders begin to break through the thatched roof. Radagast goes into a trance-like state and his spell grows more and more powerful as darkness falls over the house.
"Sí a hlare ómaquettar. Na coilerya en-vinyanta." Radagast chants
A black, inky shadow was slowly extracted from the hedgehog and into the stone. Suddenly, the hedgehog gasps for air and wakes up, being brought back to life and light returns to the area. The spiders crawl off the house and begin to disperse. Running outside, Radagast sees spider webs all around his house and he sees the giant spiders crawling off into the forest.
"Where on this good earth did those foul creatures come from?" Radagast asks
A bird flies to Radagast and he converses with it. The bird chirps and tweets to Radagast.
"The old fortress? Show me." Radagast says
Radagast rides through the forest on a sleigh pulled by several large rabbits. As he proceeds, the forest become dark and gloomy, covered in cobwebs. In the distance was an old, ruined fortress.
