Kili woke up and saw a familiar looking dwarf standing in the distance. He stood up and walked towards him. "You are my uncle Frerin, aren't you?"

The dwarf nodded. "Yes Kili, I am Frerin. You look a lot like your mother but you have your father's eyes. I'm here to show you something."

Kili looked at his uncle, who had been killed at the Battle of Azanulbizar many years ago, with wide eyes. "Am I dead?"

Frerin put his hand on Kili's shoulder. "No, your are not dead yet but you're very close to it. Kili, there is still much to live for even if your situation seems to be terrible at the moment. You have to fight your way back to the world of the living or terrible things will happen."

"Which things?" Kili asked looking quite confused. "My marriage is a disaster and most of my family hate me."

"No, Kili! They don't hate you. Come with me, I'll show you what will happen if you give up and stay here amongst the dead." Frerin explained with a sad smile.

Kili nodded and followed his uncle to a basin with a strange looking liquid in it. Frerin told him to think of those he loves the most and soon a clear picture formed in the basin:

Dwalin and Thorin stood close to the entrance of Erebor's Royal Burial Chamber looking at the rest of their family sadly. Closer to what Kili noticed to be his tomb stood Poppy and Dis supporting a crying Daisy. The hobbit looked pale and thin. Her hair didn't shine anymore like it used to when Kili fell in love with her.

Directly in front of the tomb kneeled Fili and Dwalis with a small dwobbit who looked a lot like Kili with dark hair and chocolate brown eyes. Both of his siblings looked heartbroken. Although Dwalis had never been close to her brother she still missed him and was sad that she was never able to get to know him. The little one clutched Dwalis' dress and cried while Fili held both of them in his arms. He told the child about Kili and what a wonderful dwarf he had been. Then he put his lips to the little dwobbit's ears. "Your Adad loves you and your Mama does as well although she couldn't stop crying since the day he passed away. Your her biggest treasure."

Kili gasped and wiped his tears away before looking at his uncle again. "What's this?"

"This is a scene of what is going to happen on this day in three years if you don't fight your way back." Frerin explained and then vanished.

Kili screamed because he was suddenly alone in the white room. He couldn't remember anything about the the vision of his future anymore but he knew that he had to survive.

Several days after Tauriel's attack on Poppy and baby Thorin, King Thranduil received a letter from King Thorin and Lord Balin. They wanted to inform him about the crime committed by one of his subjects and that she would most likely be sentenced to death. Thranduil was furious and decided to travel to Erebor as soon as possible. He tried to keep Tauriel's crime a secret but soon rumours spread through Mirkwood.

Sarya, the healer who had worked with Daisy before she was brought to Erebor, heard about the rumours as well and finally saw a chance to inform her King about a terrible secret she had kept for years. She talked to her husband about it. He still worried about their little family's safety but encouraged her to talk to Thranduil nonetheless.

Soon afterwards a guard brought Sarya to the throne room. Thranduil wondered what the healer might want to talk about but suspected it might be about her new foster son Ronon. When she told him that it was about Tauriel he looked slightly annoyed but decided to listen to her nonetheless.

Sarya chewed her her bottom lip nervously but then started speaking in a low voice. "My King, I would like to tell you about Tauriel's miscarriage a few years ago."

Thranduil nodded slightly. "Please go on."

Sarya swallowed and then continued to speak. "My King, it wasn't a miscarriage or-" The elf bit her lip. "Or at least it didn't have anything to do Prince Kili's Dwarvish blood. Tauriel brought some herbs from Dale and asked me to make a brew from them. I denied her wish but she threatened to kill my husband and family if I wouldn't and so I did it. She drank the brew and several hours later she forced my to attest her miscarriage." Sarya sobbed. "I'm sorry, my King. I know that I committed a crime since any form of abortion is forbidden but I was so scared. I understand if you'll have to punish me for this."

King Thranduil was shocked about Sarya's confession but believed that she said the truth. He asked her to come to Erebor with him. Tauriel would probably be sentenced to death anyways but he wanted her to be punished for all her crimes and King Thorin deserved to know about this as well. After all it was Prince Kili's child she had killed.

Sarya was a bit scared and reluctant to go with her King but he promised her that she would be safe. He would also sent a few of his most trusted guards to keep an eye on her husband and Ronon. After Kili had asked Thranduil to find a new family for his adopted son and his and Tauriel's departure to Erebor soon afterwards, Thranduil decided to let Ronon stay with Sarya and her husband for as long as they would be gone. The elf was one of his most trusted healers and he knew that she and her husband had dreamed of a child for a long time. The elfling's behaviour had already changed for the better within a few days and so King Thranduil had decided that Ronon would stay with his new family permanently.

Daisy stayed with the still unconscious Kili for several days. Poppy and Dis asked her to go for a walk with them because she needed some fresh air, but Daisy said that she wouldn't leave Kili's side. She talked to him a lot and kissed and touched him to let him know that she was there.

Fili, Thorin and Dis often joined her in Kili's sickroom but they also understood that she wanted to spend some time alone with her love.

One day Fili suggested to spend the day at home with the children, Runa and Runor because he thought that Daisy needed to spend some time with her best friend. Poppy agreed happily and decided to pack a picnic basket for her and Daisy.

She nursed Thorin again and then told her children, who were playing on the balcony, that she would go to spend some time with Daisy and that they should behave while they were with their father. Lili, Vili and Tulip hugged her and promised to behave. But Ruby put her arms around her legs and begged to come with her.

Poppy picked her up and stroked her daughter's hair. "My gem, you can't join me this time. Daisy stays with your Uncle Kili but he is still sick and needs rest. But I promise that you can see and play with Daisy soon."

Ruby started crying and put her arms around Poppy's neck. "Please Mama, I want to come! Please Mama!"

Poppy and Fili looked at each other in worry. They weren't sure if Ruby just begged because she wanted to see Daisy or if she was scared that something might happen to her if she left them.

In the end Fili went towards his wife and daughter and pulled Ruby into his arms. The little girl buried her face in her father's hair and continued crying. Poppy looked sadly at her youngest daughter and put a kiss on her head before she took the basket and left for the infirmary. It hurt her to make her daughter cry but her friend needed her as well.

Poppy and Daisy spent the afternoon together talking about many things and eating their picnic. But all the time Daisy worried deeply about Kili and looked at him. After a few hours Poppy suggested that her friends needed some rest and left.

When she went back to her new home, Fili, Runa and the children were still playing. Ruby cheered when her mother was back and ran towards her. Poppy kneeled down and embraced her happily. Then she went towards the rest of her family and joined them in their game.

The next day Daisy sat on the bed next to Kili again with his uninjured hand pressed against her belly. It was still too early to feel the baby's movements but she somehow hoped that Kili might sense it's presence.

Suddenly she felt a stir in Kili's hand and yelled for Oin and Fjola immediately. She took Kili's hand between hers and put kissed on it. In between she asked him to wake up and come back to her again and again.

After a few more moments Kili moaned and then opened his eyes. "Daisy." He whispered and smiled at her. "Am I dreaming again?"

Tears form in Daisy's eyes and she smiled at Kili. "No, you're not dreaming. You are finaly back with me."

In that moment Oin and Fjola opened the door. They were relieved to see Kili being awake and immediately sent their apprentice to fetch Kili's family.
