(The Next Day)
Early the next morning, the plain infront of the mountain is covered with legions of Elves and Men, armed for battle. The Dwarves were also prepared, watching from above the gate blockade.
In Dale, Alfrid comes to wake Bilbo up, carrying a bowl of food.
"Wakey, Wakey, Hobbit. Up you... get." Alfrid says
Alfrid pauses when he realizes that Bilbo was not in the room where he had left him.
Back outside, Thranduil and Bard ride together to the front of the armies and approach their side of the broken bridge over the moat. From above the blockade, Thorin draws a bow and shoots an arrow at the ground directly infront of Thranduil and Bard who immediately halt in surprise.
"I will put the next one between your eyes!" Thorin says
Thorin draws his bow again, and the Dwarves on the wall cheer and shake their weapons. Thranduil stares at Thorin angrily, then slightly tilts his head. In that moment, several rows of Elves near the front lines of the army pull out their bows, notch their arrows, and aim at the Dwarves, all in one fluid motion. The Dwarves duck behind the ramparts, except for Thorin. After holding the pose for a few seconds, Thranduil raises his hand, and the Elves easily put away their arrows.
"We've come to tell you: payment of your debt has been offered... and accepted." Thranduil says
"What payment? I gave you nothing! You have nothing!" Thorin says
Bard reaches into his robe and pulls out the Arkenstone, holding it above his head.
"We have this." Bard says
Thorin looks on in shock, lowering his bow.
"They have the Arkenstone? Thieves! How came you by the heirloom of our house?! That stone belongs to the king!" Kili shouts
"And the king may have it, in our good will." Bard says tossing up the Arkenstone and catching it back in his hand
Bard then puts the Arkenstone back into his robe.
"But first he must honor his word." Bard says
Thorin whispers to himself, shaking his head slightly, and the Dwarves can hear him.
"They are taking us for fools. It is a ruse, a filthy lie." Thorin says
Balin looks shocked that Thorin's mental state had deteriorated to the point at which he would consider this.
"The Arkenstone is in this mountain! It is a trick!" Thorin shouts
At the top of the ramparts, Bilbo steps out from the Dwarves with Devon and his friends.
"It-It's no trick. The stone is real. We gave it to them." Bilbo says
As Bilbo speaks, Thorin's expression changes to a mixture of sorrow and anger. Thranduil and Bard look worried, as they thought the group was still safely in Dale. Thorin and the other Dwarves look at Devon and his friends in shock.
"You..." Thorin says
"I took it as my fourteenth share." Bilbo says
"You would steal from me?" Thorin asks
"Steal from you? No. No. I may be a burglar, but I like to think I'm an honest one. I'm willing to let it stand against my claim." Bilbo says
"Against your claim? Your claim. You have no claim over me you miserable rat!" Thorin says
Thorin throws down his bow in anger and begins walking toward Bilbo.
"I was going to give it to you. Many times I wanted to, but..." Bilbo says
"But what, thief?!" Thorin asks
"You are changed, Thorin! The Dwarf I met in Bag End would never have gone back on his word! Would never have doubted the loyalty of his kin!" Bilbo says
"Bilbo's right, Thorin. You are not yourself. It's the treasure! And the mountain! Can't you see?! It has changed you! It's driven you into greed! It has made you into the very thing you hate! Do you want to know who you are like?! Do you wanna know who you sound like?! Don't you see who you're turning into?! You're becoming like Smaug! The very monster you hated, and cursed all your life!" Devon says
"Do not speak to me... of loyalty! And don't speak to me of who I am like! I know who I am!" Thorin shouts
Thorin shouts to the other Dwarves.
"Throw them from the rampart!" Thorin says
Devon and his friends looks shocked. The other Dwarves step away from the group in confusion. Thranduil and Bard look concerned. Thorin was surprised to see that no one obeyed him.
"Did you not hear me?!" Thorin asks
Thorin grabs Fili's arm, but Fili shakes him away.
"I will do it myself!" Thorin says
Thorin lunges forward and grabs Bilbo, shouting.
"Curse you!" Thorin shouts
As Thorin struggles with Bilbo, Devon, the Viking Teens, and the other Dwarves leap forward, shouting, to pull Thorin away. Luna, Toothless, and the other dragons roar out at Thorin, pleading him to stop.
"No!" Fili shouts
"Thorin, stop!" Devon shouts
"No! Don't!" Hiccup shouts
"Let him go!" Astrid shouts
Thorin manages to grab Bilbo and begins pushing him over the rampart.
"Cursed be the Wizard that forced you on this company!" Thorin shouts
Suddenly, Gandalf appears, striding through the armies. His voice was magically amplified into an incredibly loud, deep, and powerful tone.
"If you don't like my burglar..." Gandalf says in his powerful voice
As he continues to speak, Gandalf's voice returns to a normal volume and tone.
"Then please, don't damage him. Return him to me!" Gandalf says in his normal voice
Thorin stops what he was doing and looks down at Gandalf.
"You're not making a very splendid figure as King under the Mountain, are you? Thorin, son of Thráin." Gandalf says
Thorin slowly lets Bilbo up, and some of the other Dwarves rush to help Bilbo up.
"Never again will I have feelings with Wizards!" Thorin shouts
Bofur gently pushes Bilbo toward the rope he'd hung the night before to climb down the walls.
"Go." Bofur says
"Dragon Riders! Or Shire-rats!" Thorin shouts
Bilbo throws his coiled rope over the wall and clambers down. Devon and the Viking Teens climb onto their dragons and jump down from the ramparts, following Bilbo down.
"Are we resolved? The return of the Arkenstone for what was promised?" Bard asks
Thorin, breathing heavily, looks to a ridge in the distance on his left, as if looking for someone or something.
"Give us your answer! Will you have peace or war?" Bard asks
As Thorin bows his head, a large raven flies up to the ramparts and perches beside him. Thorin and the raven stare at each other. Thorin then looks over to the ridge on his left.
"I will have war." Thorin says
Suddenly, a rumbling sound was heard in the distance, and the armies look up to see the ridge being covered by troops of heavily armored Dwarves, lead by a huge Dwarf riding a battle-pig.
"Ironfoot." Gandalf says
The Erebor Dwarves began cheering and screaming as they see their backup arriving.
"Ribo i thangail! (Rush the shield-fence!)" Thranduil says in elvish
Thranduil rides through his army as his Elves and the Lake-people turn away from the gates of Erebor and begin marching quickly toward the oncoming Iron Hills dwarves. Devon and his friends strides along with Gandalf as they follow them with Bilbo rushing to keep up.
"Who is that? He doesn't look very happy." Bilbo says
"It is Dain, lord of the Iron Hills. Thorin's cousin." Gandalf says
"Are they alike?" Bilbo asks
"I always found Thorin the more reasonable of the two." Gandalf says
The two armies halt a short distance from one another, and Dain rides his war pig onto a rocky overlook to address the Elves and Men.
"Good morning! How are we all? I have a wee proposition, if you wouldn't mind giving me a few moments of your time. Would ya consider... just soding off!" Dain shouts
The townspeople clutch their weapons and step back in fear while the Elves pull out their swords and step forward.
"All of you! Right now!" Dain shouts
"Stand fast!" Bard shouts
Gandalf strides forward to try and help settle things.
"Come now, lord Dain!" Gandalf says
Dain sees Gandalf approaching him and instantly recognizes him.
"Gandalf the Grey. Tell this rabble to leave or I'll water the ground with their blood!" Dain says
The townspeople muttered to themselves nervously upon hearing that.
"There is no need for war between Dwarves, Men and Elves. A legion of Orcs march on the mountain. Stand your army down." Gandalf says
"I will not stand down before any Elf! Not least this faithless woodland sprite! He wishes nothing but ill upon my people! If he chooses to stand between me and my kin, I'll split his pretty head open! See if he's still smirking then!" Dain says pointing his war hammer at Thranduil
Thranduil smiles furiously, and the Erebor Dwarves cheer.
"He's clearly mad, like his cousin." Thranduil says
"You hear that, lads?!" Dain says
Dain turns and rejoins his army.
"Come on! Let's give these bastards a good hammering!" Dain shouts
"Yag na dolredum!" A Dwarf shouts
"Maka magahm!" The Dwarves shout all together
The Dwarves raise their weapons and cheer. The Elves maneuver to put their shield-and-spear bearers at the front of the army while the arches stand behind them. The Dwarves continue to shout. As both armies prepare to fight, another rumbling sound was heard at the base of a spur in the mountain. The armies grows silent as they turn to look. Gandalf whispers to himself.
"Were-worms!" Gandalf whispers
At the spur of the mountain where the rumbling was coming from, massive worms break through the rocks. Their mouth were essentially giant drilling machines, strong enough to crush the toughest rocks in their jaws. Everyone looks on in shock.
"Oh, come on!" Dain says
"You've got to be kidding me!" Snotlout says
The worms suddenly retreat into the tunnels they'd made through the mountains. As the mist clears, Azog and a few other Orcs stand atop a hill. Behind them were several massive contraptions made of wood, rope, and cloth, meant to be used as signalling devices.
"Vod nod auishi! (Come forth my Armies!)" Azog shouts spreading his arms out
As Azog gives a sign, one of the wooden structures opens up in a particular position, and a horn sounds. Immediately, legions of Orcs began pouring out of the were-worm tunnels.
"The hordes of hell are upon us! To battle! To battle, sons of Durin!" Dain shouts
Dain and part of his army turn and rush toward the oncoming Orcs.
"I'm going over the wall! Who's coming with me?" Fili says
The other Dwarves cheer and agree, preparing to climb down. But suddenly, Thorin speaks.
"Stand down!" Thorin says
"Are we to do nothing?" Fili asks
"I said stand down!" Thorin shouts
As Thorin walks away, the other Dwarves look on in shock and surprise.
On the battlefield, as Dain and a company of his Dwarves rush toward the oncoming Orcs, the Elves stood right where they were. The Dwarves were clearly outnumbered by the Orcs.
"The Elves, will they not fight?" Bilbo asks
"Thranduil! This is madness!" Gandalf says
Thranduil looks back at the Iron Hills Dwarves as they stopped and built a shield wall with their massive spears pointed outward, lead by the chants of their leader.
"Mraka magahm!" A Dwarf shouts
"Maiyuza!" The Dwarves shout all together
The Orcs were quickly approaching the shield wall. Just as the Orcs reach the Dwarves, the Elves leap up over the shield wall from behind, wielding their swords, and begin raining down blows on the Orcs. As the Elves press forward, the Dwarvish shield wall was raised and the Dwarves rush forward, cutting down Orcs with their spears. Dain rides furiously through the Orcs, smashing them left and right with his war hammer.
As the remaining Elves march toward the battle, Gandalf, Bilbo, Devon and his friends stood where they were.
"Eh, Gandalf? Is this a good place to stand?" Bilbo asks
At the top of the hill, Azog commands his Orcs.
"Shotog shulbum! (Send in the War Beasts!)" Azog says pointing to an Orc on his right
The wooden signalling devices change their position to show a new signal. Gandalf, seeing the signal, looks toward the tunnels to see new legions of Orcs, including massive trolls and other monsters come out. Thranduil shouts to his troops.
"Terio matarag! (Archers, take aim!)" Thranduil says in elvish
The Elves stop and pull out their bows, preparing to fire.
"Noha kozshagum. Shegru bilyishul. Doh bulrazgin! (They cannot fight on two fronts. Now we make our move. Attack the city!)" Azog says
As a horn sound and the signalling device changes again, another legion of Orcs that had been waiting for the signal turn and march toward Dale which was between the current battle and the tunnels.
"Azog. He's trying to cut us off." Gandalf says
"They're heading for the city!" Astrid exclaims
The group see massive trolls, each large enough to carry multiple catapults on their back, march toward the city along with the Orcs.
"All of you, fall back to Dale! Now!" Bard shouts
Bard, the Lake-people, Gandalf, Bilbo, Devon and his friends rush toward the city, trying to intercept the Orcs.
"To the city! Bilbo! This way!" Gandalf shouts
"Guys! Come on! Let's go! Let's go!" Devon shouts
The monstrous trolls approaching the city stop at a rise overlooking Dale. They bend over and plant all four legs on the ground, thus making their backs horizontal. On their backs were catapults loaded with large rocks. Orcs on the troll's backs wind up the gears of the catapults. At a signal from their leader Orc who strikes the ground with his mace, the catapults fire, and the rocks fly toward Dale. They smash into the walls and towers, destroying everything they hit.
As Bard, at the front of his army, rides across a bridge into Dale, the Orc army approaching the wall from another area. A troll with a giant triangle-shaped rock strapped to it's head runs up to the wall and smashes into it headfirst, knocking it down and knocking itself out in the process. The Orcs rush into the city through the hole, entering the houses and killing whatever people they find.
In the city, the townspeople flee screaming from the oncoming Orcs. Sigrid and Tilda hide in a building as they see a troll climb over the wall. Bain, holding a sword, looks for them among the fleeing people.
"Sigrid! Tilda!" Bain calls
Bard rides into the city and dismounts, drawing his sword. He runs against the flow of the fleeing people, looking for his children.
"My children! Where are my children?!" Bard asks
"I saw them. They were down in the old market." A woman says passing him
"The market?! Where are they now? Tilda! Sigrid!" Bard says
Percy runs over to Bard up at the head of a company of Lake-town soldiers.
"Bard, Orcs are storming over the causeway!" Percy yells
"Get the bowmen to the eastern parapet. Hold them off for as long as you can!" Bard commands
"Archers, this way!" Percy shouts leading the soldiers
More people come fleeing from another part of the city.
"The Orcs have taken Stone Street! The market's overrun!" A man shouts fleeing the streets
Bard watches the man flee from the streets, then looks back toward the street where he came from.
"The rest of you, follow me!" Bard says
Bard's group run down into the market and encounter the Orcs. With each of the men letting out a battle cry, they charge into the fight.
Elsewhere in Dale, Gandalf, Bilbo, Devon and his friends were also fighting the Orcs.
Devon clashes his Keyblade with the sword of an Orc and swings it away, down to the ground. From there, he quickly delivers an uppercut, making the Orc spin in the air before falling to the ground dead. An Orc attacks Devon with it's sword raised over it's head, but he knocks the blood-encrusted sword away with his Keyblade and counters with a blow to the Orc's stomach. From there, Devon flips the Orc over his shoulder, making fall down onto it's back, and cuts off it's head with a downward slash.
Luna stayed close to Devon, protecting her love and rider from the vile Orcs. Two Orcs armed with spears charged at Luna and tried to attack her, but the female Night Fury knocked them both away with a powerful swipe of her tail. One Orc tried to attack Luna from behind, but she kicks it back using her hind legs. Another Orc charged at Luna with it's sword raised over it's shoulder. Luna charged up a plasma blast in her mouth and shot it at the Orc. The blue fireball hits the Orc with direct impact, leaving a hole in it's chest. The Orc falls backwards on it's back dead.
Spyro uses his Ice Breath against an Orc that tried to attack him upfront, unleashing a stream of ice, and freezing the Orc right on the spot. From there, Spyro rams into the Orc with his horns, smashing it to pieces. Cynder uses her Poison Breath on an Orc that tried to attack her from the left, spewing a glob of green poison at the Orc. The poison hits the Orc and began melting it's skin off. The Orc fell back dead on the ground in a pool of poison and black blood.
Toothless knocks away an Orc with a swipe of his right-paw, then kicks away an Orc that tried to attack from behind him using his left hind-leg. Another Orc tried to attack from behind, but Toothless swats it away with a swipe of his tail. Stormfly stomps down on an Orc, crushing it underneath her feet. The Deadly Nadder then flicked her tail, launching multiple spikes toward an Orc. The spikes hit the Orc in multiple places, piercing through it's iron armor, killing it. Meatlug slams her bludgeon-like tail into an Orc, knocking it down to the ground. Then, the Gronckle turns around, lifts up it's large tail, and smashes it down on the Orc. Hookfang grabs an Orc in his jaws, shook it around a bit, then tosses it away. Then, the Monstrous Nightmare lights his tail on fire and slams his tail into an Orc, sending it flying. Barf and Belch both trip two Orcs using their tails to sweep them off their feet. With the two Orcs down, the Hideous Zippleback rise up on their hind legs, and slam their paws down on the Orcs, crushing them under their feet.
Gandalf swings his sword and staff at an Orc, taking it down. Bilbo stabs an Orc multiple times with his sword, Sting.
In another part of Dale, a group of townspeople run toward the Orcs, and Alfrid was running with them.
"Charge! Onward! To the death!" Alfrid says
While still shouting, Alfrid stops running, panting for breath. Seeing that no one is watching him, he hides in a building.
Two Orcs were chasing Sigrid and Tilda. As they run screaming around a corner, Bain jumps out and kills the lead Orc. The second Orcs knocks him to the ground and swings at him, only to get his sword caught on a tree branch overhead. Bain uses this chance to thrust his sword into the Orc, killing it. He then slices it's neck with his sword. He and his sisters round a corner and see their father fighting further up the lane, uphill from them.
"Da!" Sigrid shouts
"Da! We're down here!" Tilda shouts
"Here!" Bain shouts
Bard hears them and turns to see them, looking relieved. However, his expressions changes to shock when he sees a troll enter the lane behind the children, throwing men many feet away with a single blow of it's mace. The troll sees the children and growls, making the girls scream. They were too far away for Bard to reach them in time, and he looks around frantically. As the troll approaches the children, Bard tilts upright a cart that was laying sideways in the courtyard. He scrambles into it and launches himself down the avenue toward the children. The troll raises its mace to smash the children, but pauses in surprise when it sees Bard hurtling toward it in the cart.
"Bain! Sigrid! Get down!" Bard shouts
The three children throw themselves to the floor as the cart bounces over them. It then smashes into the troll and sends it flying. Bard was also thrown forward, and he manages to thrust his sword into the troll's heart in a flying strike.
After dealing with the troll, Bard and his children run up an empty street.
"Listen, I need you to gather the women and children. Take them to the Great Hall and barricade the door." Bard says
Alfrid, hiding in a doorway nearby, hears them speaking. Bard gently takes Bain's sword from him.
"You understand? You must not come out for any reason!" Bard says
"We wanna stay with you!" Tilda says
Alfrid steps out and speaks.
"Show your father some respect! You leave it to me, sire. You heard him, we make to the Great Hall!" Alfrid says
Alfrid grabs Tilda and Sigrid and begins rushing them away. Bard calls after him.
"Alfrid, women and children only. I need every man fighting. See that you return!" Bard says
Bard thrusts the sword into Alfrid's hands.
"I'll get them to safety, sire." Alfrid says
Seeing Orcs appear nearby, Alfrid nervously hurries away.
"My sword is yours to command." Alfrid says
Alfrid begins rounding up the people he sees.
"Get up!" Alfrid says
"Look after them!" Bard says holding Bain's face earnestly.
"Shift it, granny!" Alfrid says
As Bain catches up to Alfrid, Alfrid rudely tosses him the sword, and Bain looks at him in disgust.
Bard and his men continue fighting Orcs. Elsewhere in the city, Bain and the other help the weak and elderly.
"Make for the Great Hall!" Bain says
As they approach the Great Hall, Alfrid runs and pushes his way through the people, knocking many of them over in his haste to reach the doors.
"Out of my way! Abandon the cripples!" Alfrid shouts
As more and more Orcs and trolls enter the city, Thranduil rides his elk into the city by crossing one of the bridges. As he crosses, his elk tramples many Orcs. The elk lowers its horns and spears five Orcs at the same time, lifting them up so that Thranduil can behead all of them with one swing of his sword. As they head into the city, the elk is killed by multiple Orc arrows to it's chest. As it falls forward, Thranduil leaps clear and rolls. He comes up from his roll to find himself surrounded by Orcs. He pulls out both his swords and begins fighting them, soon reinforced by his Elven foot troops.
In the city, the Men, Elves, and Orc all fight each other, and the Orcs seemed to have the upper hand due to their massive numbers. Azog watches from his hilltop vantage point.
"Shoylazgu gaiyil. Sheyu razgayu. (They cannot hold the city. The Dwarves are almost spent.)" Azog says
In the plains infront of Erebor, the Iron Hills Dwarves were being driven back by the Orcs. Some of the Orcs manage to kill Dain's war pig with two Orc spearmen driving their cruel spears into the war pig's belly, making it fall over on it's side, throwing Dain off.
"You buggars!" Dain says
Dain began killing Orcs left and right with his war hammer and by headbutting them.
"Where's Thorin?! We need him! Where is he?" Dain asks
From his vantage point, Azog gloats as both battlefronts are being won by the Orcs.
"Gashish doiyazgim! Ohmnishi. (Let these lands run with blood! Slaughter them all.)" Azog says
In Dale, Bard and the men began to retreat, trying not to get overwhelmed by the Orcs.
"Fall back!" Bard shouts
The people continued to flee from the Orcs, screaming in terror. Dead bodies of both Men, Elves, and Orcs began to fill the city streets. Devon and his friends continued fighting valiantly against the Orcs alongside Gandalf, but they were fighting a losing battle.
(Meanwhile)
In Erebor, Thorin sat on the throne, caring not at all for what was going on outside. Dwalin approaches him.
"Since when do we forsake our own people? Thorin, they are dying out there." Dwalin says
Thorin remains silent, before he speaks.
"There are halls beneath halls within this mountain. Places we can fortify." Thorin says
Dwalin looks disappointed and angry at Thorin.
"Shore up, make safe. Yes... Yes... That is it. We must move the gold further underground, to safety!" Thorin says
Thorin begins walking away, but Dwalin angrily calls out to him.
"Did you not hear me?! Dain is surrounded! They're being slaughtered, Thorin." Dwalin says
"Many die in war. Life is cheap. But a treasure such as this cannot be counted in lives lost. It is worth all the blood we can spend!" Thorin says
"You sit here in these vast halls, with a crown upon your head, and yet you are lesser now than you have ever been." Dwalin says
"Do not speak to me as if I was some lowly Dwarf lord..." Thorin says
As he speaks, Thorin is clearly mentally affected and he starts to speak in a broken voice.
"As-as if I were still... Thorin... Oakenshield." Thorin says
Dwalin looks at Thorin with a sad look on his face.
"I am your king!" Thorin shouts pulling out his sword
Thorin pulled his sword out, but he was so unbalanced that he almost fell over.
"You were always my king. You used to know that once. You cannot see what you have become." Dwalin says
"Go. Get out... before I kill you." Thorin says
After looking at each other for a while, Dwalin turns and leaves.
(Moments later)
Thorin walks through the Gallery of the Kings, walking across the entire floor which was now covered in gold a few feet deep. In his head, he hears many voices that he spoke or were spoken to him earlier.
"You sit here... With a crown upon your head... You are lesser now than you have ever been..."
"But a treasure such as this cannot be counted in lives lost..."
"A sickness lies upon that treasure..."
"The blind ambition of a mountain-king..."
"Am I not the king!"
"This... this gold... is ours... and ours alone..."
"I will not part with a ssssingle coin..."
"He could not see beyond his own desire!"
"As if I was some lowly Dwarf lord..."
"Thorin... Oakenshield..."
"A sickness which drove your grandfather mad..."
"Oakenshield..."
"This is Thorin, son of Thráin, son of Thrór!"
"I am not my grandfather... My grandfather..."
"You are the heir to the throne of Durin..."
"They are dying out there..."
"Take back Erebor..."
"Dain is surrounded... Dain is surrounded... Dain... Dain..."
"Take back your homeland..."
"You are changed, Thorin..."
"You are not yourself..."
"Do you want to know who you are like?!"
"Don't you see who you're turning into?!"
"You're becoming like Smaug!"
"The very monster you hated, and cursed all your life!"
"I am not my grandfather..."
"Is this treasure truly worth more than your honor?"
"I am not my grandfather..."
The voices suddenly stop, and Thorin looks down and sees the shadowy shape of Smaug sliding beneath the gold. Now, Thorin was starting to imagine things.
"This treasure will be your death..."
Thorin screams as the gold beneath him turns into a sinkhole and he begins drowning, surrounded by gold. He screams as he tries to escape, but keeps getting pulled down. As he disappears beneath the gold, his vision ends. He stands in the golden court and yanks off his crown and throws it to the floor. Thorin had finally come back to his senses.
(Meanwhile)
Back outside, the battle was going badly for the Dwarves
"Fall back! Fall back to the barricade! Fall back!" Dain shouts
The remaining Dwarves began retreating toward the gates of Erebor with the Orcs in pursuit.
"Mogi nakyash dohkin. Sheglo biduzul. (Now comes their end. Prepare for the final assault.)" Azog says
A signal horn sounds, and the Orcs regroup to march on the Dwarves.
(Erebor)
Inside the gates of Erebor, the Dwarves of the company sit desolately, hearing the cries of battle outside, unable to help their kin. They rise as they see Thorin approaching from further in the mountain, his sword drawn. He was no longer dressed in his royal robes and armor, but in a simple leather outfit. Kili rises and begins shouting at him.
"I will not hide behind a wall of stone while others fight our battles for us!" Kili shouts
Thorin and Kili continue to approach each other.
"It is not in my blood, Thorin." Kili says
They soon stop infront of each other and stare at each other.
"No, it is not. We are sons of Durin. And Durin's folk do not flee from a fight." Thorin says
Thorin lays his hand on Kili's shoulder, smiling. Kili smiles back at him through his tears. They touch foreheads. Thorin then turns to the rest of the Dwarves.
"I have no right to ask this of any of you, but will you follow me one last time?" Thorin asks
The Dwarves rise and take hold of their weapons, ready to follow their leader and friend again.
(Meanwhile)
Back outside, Dain and his surviving Dwarves set up a desparate shield wall infront of the moat by Erebor's gates. The Orcs line up by rank, ready to attack them. Azog suddenly stops the Orcs with him on the hill from signalling the attack.
"Shigash! Sholyd... sholyd... (Not yet! Wait... wait...)" Azog says pointing to one of the Orcs
Several heavily armored trolls shoulder their way to the front of the Orc ranks.
"Voh... ohm! (Attack... now!)" Azog says
The Orcs sound their signalling horn, and the Orcs and Trolls begin to march forward. Suddenly, another horn is heard. It was Bombur, atop the wall. The Orcs stop in confusion. In Dale, Bilbo, Gandalf, Devon and his friends hear the horn too and look up in surprise.
"Thorin!" Bilbo exclaims
The barricade of rocks in the gateway of Erebor suddenly smashes outward as it is hit from inside by a giant golden statue that the Dwarves had hung up like a bell. The rocks fall forward and make a rough bridge across the moat. Thorin and his Dwarves rush out and through the ranks of the Iron Hills Dwarves. Azog looks on in shock. Dain begins shouting to his troops.
"To the king! To the king!" Dain shouts
"Du Bekâr! (To arms!)" Thorin shouts
Thorin leads the way as all the Dwarves form a wedge behind him. They smash their way through the Orc ranks, releasing their pent up anger and hatred upon them.
In Dale, Bilbo, Gandalf, Devon and his friends look out at the plain from an abandoned causeway.
"The Dwarves! They're rallying!" Bilbo exclaims
They watch as the Dwarves, fighting with new vigour, destroy the Orcs.
"They are rallying to their king." Gandalf says
"Thorin..." Devon says feeling renewed with hope
Bard speaks to his remaining men.
"Any men who want to give their last, follow me!" Bard says
Bard and his men charge through the city and clash with the Orcs, fighting with newfound courage, abandon the despair in their hearts now that they know the Dwarves are back at it.
In the Great Hall, the woman who spoke of the prophecy grabs a spear and speaks to the others huddled inside.
"I say we stand with our men in life and in death! Arm yourselves!" The woman says
Many of the women and older men grab some weapons and follow her. Bain grabs his sword. While this was going on, a woman speaks to an old lady sitting hunched over under her shawl.
"Come with us, love." The woman says
"No, no, no! You leave an old woman be." The old woman says
"Don't be afraid." The woman says
The old woman suddenly speaks in a male voice. It was actually Alfrid trying to disguise himself as an old lady.
"I said get off!" Alfrid says
The Woman reaches over and yanks off the shawl, revealing Alfrid to everyone.
"Alfrid Lickspill, you are a coward!" The woman says
"Coward?! Not every man is brave enough to wear a corsett!" Alfrid says
"You're not a man, you're a weasel!" The woman says
As the others grab whatever tools or weapons they can find to join the battle, an urn falls over, and Alfrid sees it fall. It breaks open to reveal that is was full of gold and silver coins.
On the battlefield, Thorin kills an Orc, and calls out to Dain who was not far away from him.
"Dain!" Thorin calls
Thorin spins around and swings his sword down on an Orc.
"Thorin! Hold on! I'm coming!" Dain shouts
Dain jumps onto the back of an Orc and swings his war hammer around while doing so. He then snaps the Orc's neck and jumps off.
"Hey cousin, what took you so long?!" Dain says
Thorin and Dain meet and hug each other.
"There's too many of these buggars, Thorin. I hope you've got a plan." Dain says
Thorin looks up and sees the hilltop where Azog's wooden machines was signalling orders.
"Aye. We're going to take out their leader!" Thorin says
"Azog..." Dain says in disbelief
Thorin strides forward and mounts a large goat that Dain's army had brought.
"I'm gonna kill that piece of filth!" Thorin says
Thorin, Dwalin, Fili, and Kili, each on a goat, charge toward the hill, smashing through the Orc armies in their way.
"Lead on!" Dwalin shouts
(Dale)
In Dale, Gandalf watches human spearmen and archers kill a massive troll which made it fall back on some Orcs that followed it up some stairs.
"We may yet survive this." Gandalf says
"Gandalf!" Bilbo calls
Gandalf kills an Orc, then hurries over to where Bilbo is standing at the wall and watches Thorin, Dwalin, Fili, and Kili ride up a spur of the mountain to where Azog was. Devon and his friends saw this as well.
"It's Thorin!" Bilbo exclaims
"And Fili, Kili... and Dwalin. He's taking his best warriors!" Gandalf says
"To do what?" Bilbo asks
"To cut the head off the snake." Gandalf says
"He's going after Azog." Devon says
Atop the hill, Azog hears the sound of goat hooves, and he snarls. Thorin and his Dwarf brothers reach some ruins on top of the hill, killing Orcs along the way. There was a frozen river between them and where Azog was.
Legolas and Tauriel arrive back in Dale together on a horse. They charge through the streets, killing Orcs on their way in. They come to where Gandalf was standing.
"Gandalf!" Legolas calls out
Gandalf, Bilbo, Devon and his friends see Legolas and Tauriel approaching them.
"Legolas... Legolas Greenleaf!" Gandalf exclaims
"There is a second army! Bolg leads a force of Gundabad Orcs. They are almost upon us!" Legolas warns
"Gundabad... This was their plan all along. Azog engages our forces, then Bolg seeps in from the north." Gandalf says
"Wha... the-the north... Where is the north, exactly?!" Bilbo asks
"Ravenhill." Gandalf says
Gandalf turns and strides over to the parapets to look at the hill where Thorin went.
"Ravenhill... Thorin is up there! And Fili and Kili! They're all up there!" Bilbo exclaims
"They won't stand a chance! They'll get killed!" Astrid exclaims
"Right! We have to help them!" Devon says
At the mention of Kili's name, Tauriel is alarmed. Together, they all look out toward the top of Ravenhill which was shrouded in mist.
(Ravenhill)
Thorin, Dwalin, Fili, and Kili, having defeated all the enemies at present, they look out across the river at the ruins in which Azog was last seen. His wooden signal machines were visible through the mist.
"Where is he?" Thorin asks
"It looks empty. I think Azog has fled!" Fili says
"I don't think so." Thorin says
Thorin turns and looks at Fili and Kili.
"Fili, take your brother. Scout out the towers. Keep low and out of sight. If you see something, report back, do not engage. Do you understand?!" Thorin says
"We have company. Goblin mercenaries. No more than a hundred." Dwalin says
The four Dwarves look back the way they came and see dozens of Goblins running over the ruins toward them.
"We'll take care of them. Go! Go!" Thorin says
"Come on!" Dwalin shouts
As Fili and Kili run towards the river, Thorin and Dwalin prepare to meet the Goblins in battle rushing toward them.
(Dale)
Thranduil walks slowly through the city, seeing the fallen bodies on the ground, many of which are his own Elves. He looks upon them in shock. An Elf commander comes running up to Thranduil.
"Recall your company." Thranduil says
The Elf commander blows a horn. around the same time, Gandalf comes running up to Thranduil.
"My lord, dispatch this force to Ravenhill! The Dwarves are about to be overrun. Thorin must be warned." Gandalf says
"By all means, warn him. I have spent enough Elvish blood in defense of this accursed land. No more!" Thranduil says
Thranduil walks away haughtily and angrily.
"Thranduil?!" Gandalf says
"I'll go!" Bilbo says
"Don't be ridiculous! You'll never make it!" Gandalf says
"Why not?" Bilbo asks
"Because they will see you coming and kill you!" Gandalf says
"No, they won't." Bilbo says
Gandalf looks at Bilbo peculiarly.
"They won't see me." Bilbo says
"It's out of the question. I won't allow it." Gandalf says
"I'm not asking you to allow it, Gandalf." Bilbo says
Gandalf remained silent upon hearing that. Bilbo and Gandalf nod to each other, then Bilbo strides away.
"Don't worry, Gandalf. We'll go with him." Devon says
Gandalf nods in acknowledgement. Devon and his friends follow Bilbo as he moves through the city. They soon turn into a corner and stop.
"Bilbo, you make your way up to Ravenhill. We'll fly up and meet you there." Devon says
Bilbo nods and pulls out his ring. He looks at it for a few moments, then puts it on.
"Alright, let's go!" Devon says
Devon jumps onto Luna's back and they take off into the air. Spyro and Cynder take off into the air, following Devon and Luna to Ravenhill. Hiccup climbs onto Toothless' back and sets himself in his saddle.
"Come on, bud!" Hiccup says
Toothless roars and performs a vertical take-off, following Devon and Luna into the air towards Ravenhill.
"Let's go!" Astrid says
The Viking Teens climb onto their dragons and they take off into the air, flying towards Ravenhill.
Invisibly, Bilbo runs through the city, seeing the remaining battles. In his ring-enhanced vision, the Elves appear to be beings of white light, while the Orcs were like solid shadows.
Elsewhere in the city, Thranduil and his Elves march through the city. An Orc gets in Thranduil's way, but he cuts it down with a simple swipe of his sword.
"Wiya hol liath. (You will go no further.)" A voice says in elvish
Thranduil and his Elves stop abruptly when they see Tauriel standing in the middle of the lane ahead of them, looking resolute.
"You will not turn away. Not this time!" Tauriel says
"Get out of my way!" Thranduil says
"The Dwarves will be slaughtered!" Tauriel says
"Yes, they will die. Today, tomorrow, one year hence, a hundred years from now, what does it matter? They are mortal." Thranduil says slowly approaching Tauriel
Suddenly, Tauriel whips out her bow and notches an arrow, aiming at Thranduil.
"You think your life is worth more than theirs, while there is no love in it? There is no love in you!" Tauriel says
Thranduil looks at Tauriel angrily for a moment. Then, he whips out his sword and slices Tauriel's bow in half. As she drops it in shock, Thranduil lifts the point of his sword to her neck and speaks angrily.
"What do you know of love?! Nothing! What you feel for that Dwarf is not real! You think it is love? Are you ready to die for it?" Thranduil asks
Suddenly, another sword, Orcrist, was laid atop Thranduil's sword. It was Legolas, pushing his father's sword away.
"Tihem magathon, ulugele thol. (If you harm her, you will have to kill me.)" Legolas says in elvish
While Thranduil stares at Legolas in shock, Legolas turns to Tauriel.
"I will go with you." Legolas says
Tauriel smiles and the two Elves hurry away together.
In another part of Dale, Alfrid, still wearing a woman's outfit and clutching the gold he found to his chest, weaves through the city, dodging Orcs. As he backs toward a wall, a troll climbs over it and roars at him. It raises its club to kill him, and he screams. Suddenly, from behind him, Bard shoots and arrow and kills the troll. Alfrid falls over, and money falls out of his dress, and he tries to gather it up.
"Get up!" Bard says
"Get away from me! I don't take orders from you! People trusted you. They listened to you. The master's mantle was there for the taking. And you threw it all away. For what?" Alfrid says
Bard turns and looks back. Alfrid follows his gaze to see Bard's children in a doorway, staring at him as his dress is full of coins. He turns and stomps away.
"Alfrid, your slip is showing." Bard says
Alfrid adjusts his dress, then runs away.
(Ravenhill)
Fili and Kili creep quietly through the ruins below Azog's signalling station. Suddenly, they hear a noise up ahead. Kili tries to move forward, but Fili stops him.
"Stay here. Search the lower levels. I've got this." Fili says
While Kili stays behind and goes into another passageway, Fili moves on to investigate.
Having defeated the Goblins, Thorin looks anxiously out over the frozen river.
"Where is that Orc filth?" Dwalin asks
"Thorin!" A voice calls out
Thorin and Dwalin look up and see Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens and the dragons flying down and landing infront of them. The voice belonged to Devon who climbs off Luna's back and walks up to Thorin.
"Devon!" Thorin exclaims
Devon looks at Thorin, and was pleased to see that he had come back to his senses.
"Good to see you've come back to your senses." Devon says
Then, Bilbo appears out of thin air behind Thorin, panting.
"Thorin..." Bilbo says
"Bilbo!" Thorin exclaims
"You have to leave here! Now! Azog has another army attacking from the north. This watchtower will be completely surrounded. There'll be no way out." Bilbo says
"He's right. Azog knew you would be coming for him." Devon says
"We are so close! That Orc scum is in there! I say we push on!" Dwalin says
Dwalin tries to move on, but Thorin holds his arm out and stops him.
"No! That's what he wants. He wants to draw us in." Thorin says
Thorin began to understood something.
"This is a trap!" Thorin exclaims
Devon looks around, and doesn't see Fili or Kili anywhere.
"Where's Fili and Kili?" Devon asks
Thorin and Dwalin look toward the tower on the otherside of the frozen river, knowing they had sent Fili and Kili there. Devon and his friends followed the gaze of the two Dwarves and had worried looks on their faces.
In the ruins, Fili hears a sound infront of him and turns around, only to see lights coming up the hallway from behind him too. He was trapped.
Back with the group, Thorin talks to Dwalin.
"Find Fili and Kili! Call them back!" Thorin says
"Thorin, are you sure about this?" Dwalin asks
"Do it. We live to fight another day." Thorin says
As they turn to leave, the group hears a drum sound from Ravenhill. Looking back at the tower, they see a light appear. Atop the tower, Azog appears, dragging Fili behind him.
"Goriazi. Nagak gamrul nash. Regu nule ekkenske. Shugu shagali. (This one dies first. Then the brother. Then you, Oakenshield. You will die last.)" Azog says
"No! Run!" Fili screams
Thorin, Dwalin, Bilbo, Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens, and even the dragons look on in shock and horror as Azog lifts Fili by his neck, then stabs him through the chest with his arm-blade.
"Hulas ugamni! (Here ends your filthy bloodline!)" Azog says
Azog drops Fili who falls to the ground from the tower, lifeless. He falls past Kili who had been watching from a doorway below. Kili, seeing his dead brother on the ground, furiously rushes up the tower steps toward Azog.
"Kili!" Thorin shouts
Thorin begins running across the frozen river.
"Thorin! Thorin...No." Dwalin says
Dwalin rushes to catch up with Thorin while Luna, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens and the dragons looked at Devon who was still shocked upon seeing Azog kill Fili right infront of them. As he stood there, Devon gripped his right-hand into a fist, his heart filling with anger. He then summons his Keyblade: Soul Calibur into his hand in a flash of blue light, and turns to look at his friends.
"Devon..." Luna says feeling worried for her beloved rider
"Let's go finish this!" Devon says with a serious look on his face
Devon moves past his friends who look at each other, feeling worried for Devon.
"Devon!" Luna calls out
Luna went off to go and join him, and the others followed suit. Bilbo stood where he was for a moment, then drew his sword, Sting. He then went to join the others.
Kili rushes up the steps, killing Orcs in his way. As Thorin begins to clamber up the ruins, Azog rushes out of a tunnel and attacks him. They fight on the snowy mountainside, Thorin with his sword and Azog with his arm-blade and a mace.
Dozens of Orcs continue moving across the frozen river toward the ruins. Before they could proceed any further, Devon jumps down from the ruins and engages them with his Keyblade: Soul Caliibur drawn. The Orcs target Devon and charge toward him, wielding their blood-encrusted weapons.
One Orc swings it's sword downward at Devon, but he leans his body to the left, dodging the attack. The Orc then swings with a right slash, but Devon ducks down, and dodges the blade. The Orc swings it's sword down at Devon again, but like before, Devon leans his body to the left, away from the blade. He then counters with a blow to the Orc's stomach. The Orc lurches it's body forward after recieving the hit. From there, Devon flips the Orc over his shoulder, making it fall down onto the ice. He then finishes the Orc with a downward slash, cutting it's head clean off it's shoulders. Another Orc charges at Devon with a frontal charge, and it's sword raised over it's shoulder. Devon holds his Keyblade up in defense and clashes blades with the Orc. The two push against each other's strength as they were caught in a blade-lock. Devon soon got the upperhand, swings the Orc's sword away. He then drives his Keyblade right through the Orc's chest. The Orc's body stumbles over and falls down onto the ice.
More Orcs continue coming down the frozen river toward Devon. But before they could reach him, Luna jumps down, and stands infront of Devon, curling her body around her love and rider, protecting him from the vile Orcs. Luna growls and snarls at the Orcs, showing them her sharp teeth. She then lets out a loud roar, telling them to back off. Of course, the Orcs didn't listen, and they roared back, charging at the duo with their weapons.
Luna quickly charged up a plasma blast in her mouth and fired a blue fireball at an Orc on her left, taking it out with one hit. The female Night Fury looks over to her right, and fired another plasma blast at a second Orc. The Orc flies backwards, and falls to the ground dead with a scorching hole in it's chest. Devon helps Luna deal with the Orcs by throwing his Keyblade. He tosses his Keyblade with a vertical toss at one Orc, landing a direct hit at it's chest. The Keyblade stabs through the Orc's body, making it fall back dead on the ice. After hitting the Orc, the Keyblade reappears in Devon's hand with a flash of blue light. Devon then throws his Keyblade with a horizontal toss at another Orc. The Keyblade flies across the air, and cuts the Orc's head off it's body with a clean hit.
Soon, the Orcs got close enough to Devon and Luna, forcing them to fight in close combat. Devon fought the Orcs with his Keyblade while Luna fought using her paws, wings, and tail. The two fought well and stood firm as the Orcs continued their assault.
Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens, and the dragons saw Devon and Luna fighting the Orcs on the frozen river from the ruins across from them, and was about to join them, when a group of Orcs came charging toward them, forcing the group to fight their way over to them.
Bilbo, still on the other side of the river, hears a noise and ducks as Werebats fly out of the fog. His sword glows blue, and he looks back to see Bolg and his forces climbing over the ruins.
"Gor! Gurush! (Go! Move it!)" Bolg shouts
Seeing Bilbo, the Orcs charge at him. Just before they reach him, Dwalin charges up and began fighting the Orcs single-handedly.
"Zorgil! (Slay them all!)" Bolg shouts
Tauriel and Legolas pause on their way to Ravenhill as they see the Werebats massing. The Werebats fly down to the main battlefields, swooping through ranks of soldiers and causing mayhem. Legolas leaps and grabs the leg of a passing Werebat, and it carries him away. Tauriel sees Kili fighting several Orcs on the ruins.
"Kili..." Tauriel gasps
Azog and Thorin continue fighting. Thorin manages to knock Azog down, and Azog slides down a slippery slope. Before Thorin can chase after him, other Orcs arrive and he was forced to fight them.
In the courtyard, Bilbo throws rocks at Orcs as Dwalin fights.
Kili continue fighting his way up the ruins. Tauriel makes her way through the ruins, looking for Kili. She encounters and kills several Orcs.
As Bilbo continues throwing rocks, Bolg suddenly runs out and smacks Bilbo in the head with the handle of his mace, knocking him out cold.
As the Werebat carries Legolas over a stone tower, he shoots it through the neck, killing it and forcing it to release him. He drops gracefully ontop of the tower.
Back with Thorin and Azog, Azog suddenly charges at Thorin and knocks him onto the surface of the frozen river.
After cutting down an Orc, having a brief moment of peace, Devon saw Thorin get knocked onto the frozen river, near it's end.
"Boiya galyir! (Go in for the kill!)" Azog yells
Azog yells to his Orcs who run out on to the ice to attack Thorin. Devon and Luna try to move toward Thorin to help them, but some of the Orcs got in their path, cutting them off, and forcing the duo to fight them.
"Ebru doi! (Finish him!)" Azog yells
"Thorin!" Devon shouts
Thorin looks around as many Orcs run toward him.
Suddenly, the Orcs begin falling over with arrows stuck in them. Devon and Luna looked near the edge of the frozen river and saw that the shots came from Legolas who was shooting the Orcs attacking Thorin from the top of the tower. Thorin, with his broken sword, takes on the remaining Orcs.
Tauriel, in a moment of peace after dispatching an Orc, calls out for Kili.
"Kili!" Tauriel calls out
Kili hears Tauriel calling for him, but he was too busy fighting two Orcs at once to respond.
"Kili!" Tauriel calls out
"Tauriel!" Kili calls out
Tauriel hears Kili calling her and gasps.
"Kili..." Tauriel gasps
Suddenly, Bolg jumps out of a tunnel and kicks Tauriel into a rock. Seeing this, Kili angrily defeats his Orcs and begins making his way toward Tauriel. Tauriel manages to slip out from Bolg's grasp and begins attacking him with her dagger. Bolg manages to grab both her arms and twists them, causing her to shriek in pain. He then smashes his fist down on her head, making her fall to the ground. Kili rushes desperately as he hears Tauriel's groans. Bolg raises Tauriel up by her throat, but she manages to kick him in the knee, causing him to fall. Bolg grabs Tauriel and throws her body against a wall. As she lays stunned on the ground, Bolg raises his mace for the kill.
Suddenly, Kili leaps from a parapet onto him. Kili manages to slash at Bolg, but Bolg grabs Kili by the head and raises the pointed base of his mace to stab him through the chest. Tauriel jumps onto Bolg from behind, trying to help Kili, but Bolg manages to throw her down again. In that moment, Bolg raises his mace and plunges it through Kili's chest.
"No!" Tauriel cries out
Kili looks at Tauriel, staring into her eyes as they were tearing up. Soon enough, Kili sighs his last breath and Bolg drops Kili to the ground dead.
Tauriel's grief turns to anger, and she leaps onto Bolg as he approaches her. They were standing over the edge of a precipice, and Bolg tries to swing Tauriel out over the fall. She manages to hold on to him and kick off a stone, launching them both over the edge.
Legolas, on top of the tower, suddenly feels the tower shaking. He looks down to see a troll smashing away at the tower's base. Hearing Tauriel's grunts, Legolas looks out and sees her rolling with Bolg down the mountainside. She lands on a broken staircase, gasping in pain. Bolg, after landing landed near Tauriel, rises up and prepares to kill her. Legolas sees this and reaches back for an arrow, only to find that he has run out. He angrily throws down his bow and pulls out Orcrist. He leaps off the top of the tower and plummets down holding his sword out. He manages to stab the troll in the head, and it hobbles around in pain. Twisting the sword, he manages to get the troll to charge forward, smashing head first into the already-weakened base of the tower.
Bolg looks up to see the tower fall over and make a bridge over the chasm in between Legolas and Bolg. As Tauriel lays unconscious, Bolg and Legolas charge at each other over the makeshift bridge and begin fighting. As they fight, Bolg swings his heavy mace down at Legolas and misses, hitting the floor and causing it to crumble and fall into the chasm.
Up on the frozen river, Thorin manages to stab an Orc in the knee, but another Orc rushes up and smashes into him, causing him to slide across the ice on his back all the way to the edge of the waterfall, directly over Legolas and Bolg. Bolg knocks Legolas over, and prepared to finish him. Just as Bolg raises his mace, Thorin manages to knock an Orc over the edge of the waterfall, making it land on the bridge behind Bolg, breaking through the stones and causing him to fall under a pile of rubble.
Another Orc approaches Thorin who was lying on his back, partially hanging over the edge of the waterfall, defenseless. Devon and Luna saw that Thorin was in trouble and tried to make their way over to him, but they were met with another group of Orcs, and were forced to fight them. As the Orc raises its sword to finish Thorin, Legolas manages to throw Orcrist into the Orc's chest, killing it. As the Orc falls over the edge, Thorin manages to reach out and grab the sword, saving it from going over.
As Legolas watches Thorin, Bolg leaps out of the rubble and swings at Legolas, but Legolas dodges and pulls out his two knives.
After finishing with the Orcs, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens, and the dragons make their way over to Devon and Luna just as they finished fighting their Orcs with Devon killing the last Orc with a stab of his Keyblade down into it's chest.
"Devon! Luna!" Astrid calls
Devon and Luna turn to look at their friends as they approach them.
"Are you alright?" Hiccup asks
"Yeah. We're fine." Devon says
Devon and his friends turn back and watch as Thorin rises up to face Azog. The group knew that this was his fight, so they decided to stay out of it.
Thorin stands and looks in wonder at his blade. He then looks up and sees Azog, alone, facing him. Thorin and Azog approach each other slowly. Suddenly, a horn blows, and Azog smiles as a hill in the distance behind him becomes covered with approaching Orc reinforcements. Azog charges forward and swings a large rock attached to a chain at Thorin who ducks under it. As Azog was left unbalanced by the swing, Thorin manages to get behind him and slash him. Azog angrily swings the rock at Thorin again. As Thorin dodges, the rock smashes into the ice, cracking it.
Down on the makeshift bridge, Bolg throws a huge stone at Legolas, and it smashes the bridge beneath him. Legolas manages to run up the falling rocks and leaps at Bolg. As they fight, Legolas manages to stab at Bolg, but Bolg grabs the knife between his arm and armor, just like in their encounter in Lake-town. This time, though, Legolas smiles and uses the knife as leverage to swing atop Bolg's shoulder. Legolas twirls his other knife and stabs Bolg through the top of his head, killing him instantly. Legolas leaps back onto land as the bridge falls to the ground, carrying Bolg's body with it.
After dealing with Bolg, Legolas looks for Tauriel where he last saw her, but doesn't see her anywhere.
"Tauriel!" Legolas calls out
While Thorin and Azog continue fighting, the ice continues cracking. They both pause for a second, then Azog swings again. This time, the ice actually begins to break apart beneath them. As Thorin stumbles over an edge of the ice, Azog manages to knock his legs out from under him with the chain, making him fall on his back. Azog swings again, but Thorin manages to roll away. He leaps behind Azog who was off balance, and slashes at him again. Azog angrily swings the rock and chain at Thorin, but missing him. The rock becomes stuck in the ice, and Azog was forced to slash at Thorin with his bladed-arm, but the Dwarf Prince leaned his body away, making the Pale Orc miss.
Suddenly, an Eagle cry sounds through the air. Azog looks into the sky behind Thorin in shock. Devon and his friends look into the sky, and were surprised by hat they saw. In the sky, several Eagles swoop down onto the battlefield with Radagast riding the lead Eagle. They sail through the ranks of the oncoming Orc reinforcements from Gundabad, decimating them. Beorn, riding atop one of the Eagles, throws himself off it and changes into his massive bear form as he falls to the ground, landing right in the middle of the Orcs. He smashes through the Orcs, quickly going through their numbers.
Back on the frozen river, Thorin suddenly throws his sword down. Reaching forward, he lifts the rock at the end of the chain and tosses it to Azog who instinctively catches it. Azog looks at Thorin in shock. Thorin jumps backward, off the ice floe that they were both standing on. Without Thorin's weight to balance it, the ice floe tips over and Azog plunges into the water below. He scrabbles at the edge, but the chain pulls him down. Thorin pants in exhaustion, relieved that the battle was over.
As the fighting on the frozen river started to settle, the Eagles attack the Werebats, ripping them out of the air.
Thorin bends down to pick up Orcrist, and walks down the frozen river. He sees Azog through the ice, being pulled slowly by the current toward the frozen waterfall. Thorin slowly walks above him, and they stare at each other through the ice. Azog closes his eyes and Thorin continues to stare at the Pale Orc, believing that he was finally gone.
Suddenly, Azog opens his eyes, and he manages to stab Thorin through his left-foot, through the ice, with his blade-arm. Thorin screams in agonizing pain and falls down on his back. Azog leaps through the ice and pins Thorin down to the ice. Azog tries to stab his blade-arm at Thorin, but Thorin manages to stop it from piercing his chest by sliding Orcrist in one of the forks of the blade. Azog uses his superior weight and position to his advantage and slowly pushes his blade further down on Thorin while he struggles to keep it away.
As they stare at each other, Thorin slides his sword out of the fork, allowing Azog's blade to stab him through the chest. Devon and his friends looked on with horrified looks and widened eyes on their faces. Azog smiles evilly, knowing he had finally beaten Thorin.
Suddenly, Thorin raises his own sword and stabs Azog through his heart. Azog's smile fades as the sword went through his chest. Thorin flips Azog over onto his back on the ice and forces Orcrist all the way through Azog and through the ice below. Azog dies with Thorin kneeling on top of him. Thorin, mortally wounded, struggles to get up.
Bilbo regains consciousness and sees the Eagles flying overhead.
"The eagles are coming..." Bilbo says
Thorin stumbles toward the edge of the frozen waterfall, looking out over the battlefield below, where the remaining Orcs were being routed up. Feeling weak from his wound, Thorin collapses on his back. Devon and his friends rush over to Thorin, feeling deeply worried for him. At the same time, Bilbo comes running up in surprise. Devon and Bilbo both kneel down to Thorin.
"Bilbo... Devon..." Thorin says weakly
"It's okay, Thorin. We're here. Just hold on." Devon says
"Don't move! Don't move! Lie still!" Bilbo says
Bilbo examines Thorin's wound, then recoils in shock, covering his mouth with his hand.
"I'm glad you're all here... I wish to part from you all in friendship." Thorin says weakly
"No. You are not going anywhere, Thorin. You're going to live." Bilbo says
"I would take back my words and my deeds at the gate. You did what only a true friend would do. Forgive me... I was too blind to see. I'm so sorry that I have led you all into such peril." Thorin says weakly
Thorin began choking up on his blood.
"No, no, I'm glad to have shared in all your perils,Thorin. Each and every one of them. It is far more than any Baggins deserves." Bilbo says
Bilbo and Thorin smile at each other.
"Farewell, Master Burglar... Farewell, Keyblade Master... Go back to your books and your armchair. Plant your trees, watch them grow. If more people valued home above gold... this world would be a merrier place." Thorin says weakly
Thorin gasps deeply.
"No! No! No! No! No! No! Thorin! No, don't you dare!" Bilbo says
Thorin sighs his last breath and dies.
"Thorin, Thorin, wake up. The eagles... the eagles... the eagles are here. Thorin..." Bilbo says
Bilbo was overwhelmed with sorrow and mourned over his loss, crying to himself.
Devon closes his eyes in sorrow, and sighs. His eyes began to fill with tears. He tries hard not to let them overwhelm him, but a single tear slides down his cheek. Luna gently nudges Devon's right-arm with her snout. Devon wraps his arms around Luna's head, and he hugs her. Spyro and Cynder look at each other with sad look on their faces. The two dragons then hug each other. Hiccup looks on with a sad look clear on his face. Astrid also had a sad look on her face and she sighs. Fishlegs was sniffling. Tuffnut and Ruffnut look at each other in silence, both of them feeling sad. Snotlout brushes a tear from his face. Toothless and the other dragons whimpered in sadness, mourning the loss of a good friend like Thorin.
On another part of Ravenhill, Tauriel places Kili's stone in his dead hand while Legolas watches. Thranduil walks slowly through the ruins of Ravenhill, gazing about at the carnage. Legolas walks over and approaches him.
"I... cannot go back." Legolas says
Legolas brushes past his father and prepares to leave.
"Where will you go?" Thranduil asks
Legolas turns and faces Thranduil.
"I do not know." Legolas says
"Go north. Find the Dúnedain. There's a young Ranger amongst them, you should meet him. His father, Arathorn, was a good man. His son might grow to be a great one." Thranduil says
"What is his name?" Legolas asks
"He's known in the wild as Strider. His true name you must discover for yourself." Thranduil says
Legolas and Thranduil nod at each other, then Legolas turns and walks away. Thranduil calls after him, and Legolas pauses.
"Legolas... your mother loved you... more than anyone... more than life." Thranduil says
Legolas opens his eyes open in shock and surprise. Legolas and Thranduil make a gesture of departure to each other, then Legolas leaves. Thranduil watches him leave sadly, bowing his head in grief. He then proceeds through the ruins and finds Tauriel still next to Kili's body.
"They want to bury him." Tauriel says
"Yes..." Thranduil says
"If this is love, I do not want it." Tauriel says
Tauriel looks up at Thranduil with tears in her eyes.
"Take it from me, please! Why does it hurt so much?" Tauriel says
Thranduil approaches Tauriel slowly with an understanding look in his eyes.
"Because it was real." Thranduil says
Tauriel looks up at Thranduil in shock. After thinking for a while, Tauriel leans down and kisses Kili for the first and last time.
(Meanwhile)
Bilbo sat on a rock, staring off into the distance. Devon sat near Bilbo on the ground to his right with Luna curled up around his body. Spyro and Cynder laid on the ground near Devon and Luna. The Viking Teens sat on the ground with their dragons. Gandalf comes in and joins them, taking a seat next to Bilbo on his left. The group sits there, quietly, thinking. Gandalf begins cleaning out his pipe quite noisily. After a moment's pause, they nod at each other.
The remaining members of Thorin's company kneel beside the body of their king, paying homage to him.
Author's Note: Here it is! The Battle of the Five Armies! At first, Thranduil and Bard encounter Thorin and the Dwarves upon the gates of Erebor. There, they try to reason with Thorin, promising to return the Arkenstone, which Devon and his friends had delivered to them back to Thorin, but only if he kept his word to the people of Lake-town. Of course, Thorin refuses to see reason. That is when Devon and Bilbo try to bring Thorin to his senses. But, of course, that does not work either, and Thorin tries to kill Bilbo. Lucky for him, Gandalf comes in and stops Thorin, drawing his attention while Devon and his friends follow Bilbo down to Gandalf. Suddenly, the Dwarves of the Ironhills show up, ready for a fight. Then, if that wasn't enough, Azog and his army of Orcs arrive. Devon and his friends fight alongside Gandalf, Bilbo, the Lake-town people, the Woodland Elves, and the Dwarves, and make their stand against Azog the Defiler and his Orc armies. Meanwhile, Thorin finally manages to come to his senses and takes up arms with his Dwarf-brothers. They soon join in the fight and head to deal with Azog himself. Devon and his group join Thorin up on Ravenhill, and they fight together against Azog, and his Orcs. Legolas and Tauriel show up on the scene, and they join in the fight too. Thorin Vs Azog. Legolas Vs Bolg. And Devon and his friends Vs a dozen of Orcs. As the fighting goes on, the Eagles fly in with Radagast and Beorn to lend their support. Thorin manages to defeat Azog, but was fatally wounded, and dies. The battle is over and the heroes have survived. Only one last chapter left to complete the heroes' journey in Middle-Earth.
