The mansion was packed with vampires, so Bilbo wasn't anywhere nearby. Thorin would never risk the life of his soul mate. The leaders of the three covens met and agreed for a joint line of attack. They planned out scout units to survey the town, and cut off any escape route. Thanks to Kili's in-depth analysis of the vampires' minds, they knew exactly where to strike, their fighters ready for the challenge.
"Kili!" Théoden greeted him warmly. "It's a pleasure to see you again." The tall blond man was the leader of the Rohan Coven. His son Theodred, niece Eowyn and nephew Eomer were also there. Kili knew they were all in fact blood related the whole family truned vampire in the medieval ages. His skills also made him know that Théoden was in fact a king in the old days.
Thranduil also present in the room did not acknowledge the boy, their personal attitudes towards each other were cold to say the least.
"We shall strike at twilight." Thorin spoke in a decisive voice as all the fighters gathered. He slowly explained the plan, and he gave each vampire personal instructions. As they were finishing the meeting he glanced at Kili with a smile, and yet again stressed the valuable role Kili played in cornering the wild vampires.
"You're coming with me lad!" Dwalin pulled Kili along. "Damn you smell delicious… Don't tell me you found a partner?" The older looking vampire chuckled. "High time lad!"
The boy just looked down clearly shy.
"Now don't be shy! All of us find a human partner sooner or later, if you're lucky you'll end up like Thorin and Bilbo, but at least you won't be as lonely as always…" Dwalin continued not sensing the boy was distressed with what he was saying.
"You're making the boy uncomfortable!" Bard noticed with a grin. "So what is she like?"
"He's extremely handsome and unique." Legolas smiled at both men. "When are you planning to introduce your soul mate to the clan?" He asked Kili with a gentle smile.
"When I decide so…" Kili mumbled and left them. Somehow Legolas's words broke something in him. His soul mate. Fili was his soul mate. And that one notion made his world whole.
The vampires were slowly leaving in their groups, when Thorin called Kili to come to his office.
"I wish I would have found out from you personally." The older vampire smiled at the boy. Despite his age, Kili was just a boy in his eyes.
"It's still a new thing." Kili mumbled.
"It's a great reason for a celebration." Thorin smiled. "I assume he's still human?"
"Yes…" Kili mumbled shyly.
"When this is over, we'll meet for dinner the four of us. I'd like to meet him myself before introducing him as your official mate." Thorin spoke in his fatherly tone, one which he only used to Kili.
"Be careful tonight." Thorin gently patted the boy's back. "It's going to be a hell of a battle."
"I know." Kili murmured, as both of them left the mansion together.
"Having someone to love means having more reasons to fight for our rules and order. More reasons to protect." Thorin told him as they were getting in his car.
Kili was glancing out of the window picking up all the members of the assault team, when it hit him. The feeling Fili was in pain. Then a wave of relief came over him, and the words "My mate, my vampire is my one and only mate" hit him like a freight train. He grabbed his phone and texted Fili, and with every message sent the voice was becoming clearer and clearer until he could hear him perfectly in his head. He was shocked with the revelation that his powers began finally working, but the idea that Fili could respond and acted calmly as if this was normal and predictable shook his reality. Fili was scared for him, Fili told him he would come home safe, Fili's emotions flowed over him, and the notion of the depth of his love meant the world to Kili. Slowly he closed his eyes and saw things his powers never showed him, he immediately knew this was a vision of the future.
"You have a lot of explaining to do…" He wrote one more text.
"Seeing it you might be able to do it better." Fili replied. "Come back to me."
"I will." Kili replied.
"I know." Fili replied yet again.
Kili told Thorin what they should do differently, the older vampire just glanced at him, but the conviction in Kili's voice assured him this was based on his powers. He grabbed his phone and called Thranduil to change several things in their attack plan.
Azog the vampire leading the wild vampires, could have never predicted what happened. He was stronger and cruel than his pack members, tall blond with crystal white skin. He was a bit older, but not old by vampire standards. He heard the warning passed on by this three younglings, but it just irritated him. No one had the right to tell him anything. He could have never expected to face real old vampires, created from blood of old.
Thorin in all his glory was one of the strongest vampires in the world, Thranduil and his coven, despite feeding only on animals, were no less lethal and dangerous. Théoden's coven living according to the same strict rules were well trained and disciplined. They had the advantage of experience, of strength and of wisdom. Not to mention that had worked out their enemy, knew everything about them and thanks to Kili's last input there was nothing which could surprise them.
The well trained soldiers showed no surprise as they were attacked by nearly thirty younglings, instead of the known fifteen. It was short and swift, the fastest fighters like Tauriel making sure no one escaped their cleansing. The night hid their battle from the sight of men, and their troops disposed of the dead vampires, cutting off heads and burning them. No one knew better how to kill vampires than other vampires, especially those who had lived for centuries.
When Kili returned home with Tauriel and Legolas, he was surprised to see Fili waiting for them. Kili didn't even say a word he just sat on the sofa and pulled Fili into his arms. After a longer while he finally whispered. "You didn't have to wait for me…"
"Try sleeping seeing that fucking battle in my head…" The blond complained finally feeling better having the arms of his vampire around him. "You're dirty…" He complained. "Let's have a shower and I'm going to sleep."
"Don't mind us…" Tauriel gasped seeing them hold each other tenderly and kiss right in front of them.
The blond just glared at her coldly. "I don't give a shit about you…" He finally told the female vampire. Legolas gasped surprised, no human ever talked to a vampire knowing that a vampire was a vampire. Either the boy was suicidal or insane. Or he trusted Kili to defend him no matter what.
The girl made a faint smile. "I'm sorry about earlier."
Kili glanced between his friend and his lover. "We'll talk later." He cut their discussion. He pulled Fili into the bedroom.
