(Bree)
It was night time and rain falls heavily upon the small, dirty-looking town of Bree just on the borders of the Shire. A figure wearing a pack and a raincoat walks through the streets. The figure with the pack was considerably shorter than other
people on the streets. The figure walks up to a building and pauses, inspecting the sign that hung above the door. This sign read: The Prancing Pony. The figure was none other than Thorin Oakenshield. Thorin looks about, then enters the tavern.
Inside, there was much talk and laughter throughout the busy tavern. A waitress treads through the crowd at the pub, carrying a mug and a platter of cheese and bread. Drunk and unruly customers get in her way, and she moves around them.
"Watch it!" The waitress says
"Sorry, lass." A man says
The waitress makes her way to Thorin's table and sets down the mug and platter.
"Here you are." The waitress says
"Thank you." Thorin says
Thorin puts down his pipe which he had been smoking. He tears apart his bread and begins to eat. As he eats, he looks around at all that's going on in the pub. He looks to the right and sees a bald, suspicious-looking man watching him. He looks to his left and sees another shady character watching him. Thorin puts his bread down on his plate and slowly wraps his hand around the handle of his sword which was strapped to his pack next to him as the two men stand up and move toward him.
Suddenly, another figure appears at the table infront of him. It was none other than Gandalf who sits across from Thorin.
"Mind if I join you?" Gandalf asks
As the waitress passes by, Gandalf catches her sleeve.
"I'll have the same." Gandalf says
The suspicious men back away as Gandalf speaks to Thorin.
"I should introduce myself. My name is Gandalf. Gandalf the Grey."
"I know who you are." Thorin says
"Well now! This is a fine chance. What brings Thorin Oakenshield to Bree?" Gandalf says
"I received word that my father had been seen wandering the wilds near Dunland. I went looking, and found no sign of him. You're like the others. You think he is dead." Thorin says
"I wasn't at the Battle of Moria." Gandalf says
"No. But I was." Thorin says
(Many years ago)
Thorin remembers the day that he and his father fought in the Battle of Moria. He remembered the sound of clashing swords, the cries of battle. He even remembered when his grandfather, Thrór was slain by Azog, the Defiler.
"My grandfather, Thrór, was slain."
"No!" Thorin cries out
"Father!" Thorin exclaims
"Stay back!" Thráin yells
"No! I will fight with you!" Thorin says
"Azog means to kill us all! He will stop at nothing to destroy the line of Durin! I will not risk the life of my son! You will stay here!" Thráin says
"My father led a charge toward the Dimrill gate. He never returned."
"Father!" Thorin calls out
"Thráin was gone. They told me he was one of the fallen. By the end of that battle, I searched amongst the slain, to the last body. My father was not among the dead."
(Present Time)
"Thorin, it's been a long time since anything but rumor was heard of Thráin." Gandalf says
"He still lives. I am sure of it." Thorin says
"The ring your grandfather wore, one of the seven given to the Dwarf Lords many years ago, what became of it?" Gandalf asks
"He...gave it to my father before they went into the battle." Thorin says
"So, Thráin was wearing it before...he became missing?" Gandalf asks
Thorin nods his head.
"That's that then." Gandalf says
Gandalf looks up as the waitress sets his platter of food in front of him.
"My father came to see you before he went missing. What did you say to him?" Thorin asks
"I urged him to march upon Erebor, to rally the seven armies of the Dwarves, to destroy the dragon and take back the Lonely Mountain. And I would say the same to you. Take back your homeland." Gandalf says
Thorin picks up his mug and drinks.
"This is no chance meeting, is it, Gandalf?" Thorin asks
"No, it is not. The Lonely Mountain troubles me, Thorin. That dragon has sat there long enough. Sooner or later, darker minds will turn toward Erebor. I ran into some unsavory characters whilst traveling along the Greenway. They mistook me for a vagabond." Gandalf says
"I imagine they regretted that." Thorin says
"One of them was carrying a message." Gandalf says
Gandalf lays a dirty piece of cloth with a message and a picture of the Lonely Mountain drawn on it on the table and pushes it toward Thorin.
"It is Black Speech." Gandalf says
Thorin had been reaching forward to take the message, but warily pulls his hand away.
"Promise of payment." Gandalf says
"For what?" Thorin asks
Gandalf remains silent for a brief moment before he answers.
"Your head. Someone wants you dead. Thorin, you can wait no longer. You are the heir to the throne of Durin. Unite the armies of the Dwarves. Together you have the might and power to retake Erebor. Summon a meeting of the seven Dwarf
families. Demand they stand by their oaths." Gandalf says
"The seven armies swore that oath to the one who wields the King's Jewel, the Arkenstone! It is the only thing that will unite them, and in case you have forgotten, that jewel was stolen by Smaug." Thorin says
Thorin and Gandalf look up as the two shady men from before rise and leave together, looking back over their shoulders at Thorin and Gandalf.
"What if I were to help you to reclaim it?" Gandalf asks
"How? The Arkenstone lies half a world away, buried beneath the feet of a fire-breathing dragon." Thorin says
"Yes, it does, which is why we are going to need a burglar." Gandalf says
(12 months later)
It was night in the present time, shortly after the ending of the first movie. Bilbo peeks over some rocks on a high ledge and watches Azog and his Warg Scouts running along a ridgeline not far away, occasionally stopping to smell the air in their
pursuit of the company. Not finding anything, they continue on their way. Suddenly, Bilbo hears a snarl from the side, and ducks behind the rocks. He peeks out and sees a large bear watching Azog from another pile of rocks, snarling softly. Bilbo sneaks away. As he does, the bear roars loudly.
Bilbo has made his way down the rocks to where Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid, Stormfly, Fishlegs, Meatlug, Snotlout, Hookfang, Tuffnut, Ruffnut, Barf and Belch, and the Dwarves and Gandalf were waiting to hear Bilbo's
report.
"How close is the pack?" Dwalin asks
"Too close. A couple of leagues, no more, but that's not the worst of it." Bilbo says
"Have the Wargs picked up our scent?" Dwalin asks
"Not yet, but they will. We have another problem." Bilbo says
"Did they see you? They saw you!" Gandalf says
"No, that's not it." Bilbo says
Gandalf smiles and turns to the group.
"What did I tell you? Quiet as a mouse. Excellent burglar material." Gandalf says
The Dwarves chuckle loudly in appreciation of Bilbo. Bilbo looks exasperated that no one was hearing him out.
"Will you listen-Will you just listen? I'm trying to tell you there is something else out there." Bilbo says
The group look worried.
"What did you see, Bilbo?" Devon asks
"What form did it take? Like a bear?" Gandalf asks
Bilbo pauses and looks curiously at Gandalf.
"Y- yes. But bigger, much bigger." Bilbo says
"You knew about this beast?" Bofur asks
Gandalf turns and walks a few steps away.
"I say we double back." Bofur says
"And be run down by a pack of Orcs." Thorin says
"There is a house, it's not far from here, where we might take refuge." Gandalf says
"Whose house? Are they friend or foe?" Thorin asks
"Neither. He will help us, or he will kill us." Gandalf says
Devon and his friends and the Dwarves looks at each other in dismay.
"What choice do we have?" Devon asks
A roar sounds off in the distance behind them.
"None." Gandalf says
(Moments later)
It was now morning and the company runs through plains and across streams.
"Come on!" Gandalf says
As the Company runs through a forest, Azog and his Orcs race through the forest too. Both groups suddenly stop when they hear an ear-splitting roar nearby.
"This way, quickly!" Gandalf says
While the rest of the group flees, Bombur looks on in shock until he is pulled by Bofur.
"Bombur, come on!" Gandalf says
As they exit the forest, they spy a house surrounded by a hedge in the middle of a plain.
"To the house! Run!" Gandalf says
The group runs across the plain. Bombur, the fattest Dwarf, outruns the group in his haste. They run through a gate in the hedge.
"Come on, get inside!" Gandalf says
The group run to the front door of the house, but it was closed. Bombur reaches the door first, throwing himself against it but falls flat on his back when the door doesn't budge. The rest of the Dwarves catch up and begin throwing themselves against the door, trying to open it. Devon and his friends looks back as a massive bear breaks out from the edge of the forest and runs toward them.
"Open the door!" Gandalf yells
"Quickly!" Thorin yells
Thorin pushes through the Dwarves and manages to raise the exterior bolt, opening the doors. The entire group bolts inside the house. Luna, Spyro, Cynder, Toothless, and Meatlug manage to fit inside the house, but Stormfly, Hookfang and Barf and
Belch had to change their size in order to fit inside. The three dragons shrank until they were the size of Luna and Toothless. The Dwarves try to slam the door shut, but the bear managed to get it's head in the door before it could shut completely.
As the bear roars and tries to push the door open, the Dwarves yell and strain to close it. Bilbo pulls out his sword and points it unsteadily at the bear.
"Come on, lads!" Dwalin yells
With a final heave, the Dwarves manage to close the door and drop the bolt across it. They all sigh with relief now that they were safe inside the house.
"What is that?" Ori asks
"That...is our host." Gandalf says
Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens, the dragons, the Dwarves and Bilbo turn to Gandalf in bewilderment.
"His name is Beorn, and he's a skin-changer." Gandalf says
"Skin-changer?" Astrid asks
"Yes, miss Astrid. Sometimes he's a huge black bear, sometimes he's a great strong man. The bear is unpredictable, but the
man can be reasoned with." Gandalf says
"Well, that's good to know." Hiccup says
"However, he is not so overfond of Dwarves." Gandalf says
The Dwarves look at each other in dismay. Ori peaks out a crack in the door to see if the bear was still there.
"He's leaving!" Ori says
Dori pulls Ori away from the door.
"Come away from there! It's not natural, none of it. It's obvious: he's under some dark spell." Dori says
"Don't be a fool. He's under no enchantment, but his own. Alright now, get some rest, all of you. You'll be safe here tonight." Gandalf says
The Dwarves start spreading throughout the house.
"I hope." Gandalf whispers quietly to himself
While Fishlegs, Meatlug, Snotlout, Hookfang, Tuffnut, Ruffnut, Barf and Belch spread around the house with the Dwarves, Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, Hiccup, Toothless, and Astrid look at each other, then look back at the door as they hear the
bear growling outside.
(Later that night)
The massive bear walks around the woods, growling and standing guard as Beorn's house sat in the distance. Azog and his
company of Orcs watch the bear from the edge of the woods.
"Bu margi hum. Guri shugi khozdayil. (Attack them now. Kill the Dwarf filth while they sleep.)" An Orc says
"Shâ. Hulim nari arangish. (No. The Beast stands guard.)" Azog says
Azog angrily walks away from Beorn and the house, and his Orcs follow. They walk back to where the rest of their group was. Several Wargs fight each other as Azog and the Orcs walk back to them.
"Zadgarimid ru mong. (We will kill them on the road.)" Azog says
Suddenly, the Orcs hear a sound in the woods, and they pull out their weapons. Another large, Orc astride a Warg runs up to them, and the Warg stops inches from Azog, growling at his face. Azog stands without flinching. The Orc that stood infront
of Azog was Bolg. He held a weapon shaped like a sharp spinal column, and he had iron plates embedded in his skull and chest.
"Ginanyu dulgarin gudolrab. Dorgul torral gizid! (They are gathering in Dol Guldur. The Master has summoned you!)" Bolg says
Azog growls in anger.
(Beorn's house)
The group sleeps throughout the house. Bilbo was sleeping, sits up and looks around. After making sure that no one is watching him, he pulls out the Ring. As he examines it, a dark voice chants softly.
"Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul."
(Dol Goldur)
Azog walks out onto a raised walkway in Dol Guldur. A mass of darkness thus known as the Necromancer flies through the air and speaks.
"Zath thrrak kah ash. Zath thrrak ka leishu. Ziak khu liak. (We grow in number. We grow in strength. You will lead my armies.)" The Necromancer says
"Mod ekken skelu? (What of Oakenshield?)" Azog asks
The darkness flies around Azog, moving behind him.
"Oot mu nak ash. (War is coming.)" The Necromancer says
"Zan nathadam thran goom! (You promised me his head!)" Azog says
The darkness flies right through Azog, and he spins around to face it.
"Donm mu shab valad. (Death will come to all.)" The Necromancer says
The darkness disappears, leaving Azog snarling. An Orc comes to him.
"Du guth tuim sha nuz din? (Do we call off the hunt?)" The Orc asks
Azog contemplates for a few seconds, then makes up his mind.
"Bolg!" Azog calls
The Orcs turn as Bolg, being much taller than they were, walk up to Azog, pushing the other Orcs aside. The two tall Orcs go toe to toe and glare at each other.
"Nush darl nu mish. Thrak gul bin nakal nurak nash? (I have a task for you. Do you still thirst for Dwarf blood?)" Azog says
Bolg growls in agreement.
(Meanwhile)
In the forest outside Beorn's house, the bear ambles toward the house. At the edge of the forest, the bear stands on it's hind legs, and it's form melts into that of a tall man. The man looks toward the house in the distance.
Bilbo was sleeping in the house until he hears a noise. He wakes up and quietly peeks out of his blankets. He sees the man enter the house. Devon also woke up upon hearing the man enter the house. The man looks upon the group as he enters
and it looked like in that moment that he was looking right at Devon. Both Devon and the man stared at each other for a few moments before the man walked off further into the house. Devon thought about what he had just saw. If he had to
guess, that must've been Beorn, the Skin-changer Gandalf spoke of. And he had a feeling that he and his friends would meet him in the morning.
Author's Note: So, now we move onto The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, the second chapter in the Hobbit Trilogy. Devon and his friends continue their journey with Bilbo and the Dwarves of Erebor, avoid being hunted by Azog, the Defiler
and his hunting party of Orcs. They are then chased by a huge black bear! Fortunately, they find safety inside a house in the forest. Gandalf reveals that the bear was Beorn, a Skin-changer with the ability to change between a bear and a man and that the house they were in belonged to him. Meanwhile, Azog, the Defiler is called to Dol Guldur by request of his master, the Necromancer. Of course it's obvious we all know who the Necromancer really is, but why spoil the surprise? So anyway, the Necromancer commands Azog to prepare his army for war. Azog then tells his second-in-command, Bolg to continue the hunt for the group while he remains in Dol Guldur. Things are getting interesting. Let me know what you guys think. No flames please. Hope you guys like and don't forget to review!
