Tygr POV

My eyes opened...I think. All I saw was black. "My love!" Someone yelled. It was Thorin. I looked down to see my hands pressed against the blackness around me. "Thorin?" I said. "My love come to me!" He yelled again. "Tygr! Come on! You'll get left behind!" I suddenly heard Kili's voice pipe up. I shot up and looked around, though all I saw was black. "I-I don't know where you are!!" I said scared. "Tygr! Why aren't you coming with us! We need you!" Fili's voice yelled. "I can't see you!!!" I cried, I felt tears run down my cheeks. "Where am I?!!?!!!" I screamed pulling my knees to my chest and grabbing my hair, ducking my head down. "My love, don't be scared...just come with us...everything will be okay." I heard Thorins soothing voice behind me. Then an outcry of screams erupted. Orc screams, elf screams, dwarf screams, Echo roaring...and other dragons and beasts. I heard metal clashing and agonizing cries. "W-what's happening?!" I cried. "Don't worry, just come toward the light...and be with us." I heard the three dwarves say. I turned and saw a hallway of light, at the end stood Thorin, Kili, and Fili. "N-no! Come away from the light! The light is bad!!!" I screamed standing up. Thorin smiled at me, as did Fili and Kili.

I shot up, screaming. Sweat dripped off my forehead and my body shook. I held my forehead and panted "it...it was just a nightmare" I said out of breath. I looked spring the room franticly...bilbo was gone. "T-Thorin?" I said quietly. Suddenly the cries from my dream pierced my ears. "No....no no no!!!!" I screamed. I jumped off of the bed and rammed the door. It was still locked. I placed a hand on my stomach. "Mommy is going to turn into a raging animal okay? But your going to be okay. If there's one think I'm never going to let happen, it's you getting hurt." I said before backing up and forming into my fighting form. I growled and hurled towards the door before ramming it breaking it down. The screams became louder. I sprinted through Erebor down to the large door....I was horrified. Orcs, Elves, Dwarves....blood. Blood everywhere. I cringed and ran out into the battle. I jumped and dived through swords and axes. I then found Dwalin, being chased down by a large Orc. I growled and tackles it before snapping through its neck. "Tygr! What are you doing here?!?" Dwalin yelled. I formed into a girl and grabbed Dwalin by his armor. "Where are Kili, Fili, and Thorin? TELL ME NOW!" I screamed. He pointed and I looked back to see large mountain goats scaling a cliff. Before I had the chance to run off Dwalin grabbed my arm and pushed me to the ground before swinging his axe, cutting an Orc through the face. "Lass, please be careful. Promise me?" He said. I stood and nodded. "Of course I will...as should you." I said. Dwalin nodded and I looked up to see Echo fly over me. "ECHO!!!!" I yelled. In a matter of an instant Echo landed besides me? She was splattered with Orc blood. "Take me to Thorin. I need you to get Kili and Fili and get them somewhere safe!" I said climbing onto her back. She pushed from the ground and flew fast to the cliff. I watched Kili and Fili go into a tunnle, I jumped from her back and ran after them. However when I got there I found Kili. "Kili! Where is Fili!" I said. "Tygr!! Your not supposed to be here!" He yelled...angry. I shook my head, my nightmare catching up to me, "Where is F-" I froze stone cold...as I heard a thud behind me and a horror struck look on Kili's face formed. I heard an orcs voice yell though I never understood orcish. "F-Fili..." Kili whispered. I watched tears form in his eyes. I turned and shrieked before covering my mouth and dropping to my knees on the ground. I saw Fili, on the ground blood gushing from his neck. "FILI!!!" I cried before crawling towards him. "Kili grab his legs! NOW!" I cried. Kili ran and lifted him up, "echo block the cave!" I said. Echo stood guard, not letting any orcs past her to us. We laid Fili down. "Fili your going to be okay! I promise." I said trying not to cry as I popped one of the pellets out of my bracelet. Fili's eyes darted, watching me. I opened his mouth and shoved it down his throat, "swallow it! Do it!" Kili yelled. I looked up at him and held a finger to my lips. Fili slowly swallowed it. I sighed in relief, I kissed his forehead, "if ether of you try to argue with me I'll kill you both myself. You are going back into Erebor. Echo is going to watch over. I am going to get Thorin. Understood?" I asked. "What?! No I'm fi-" I stood and slammed Kili against the wall. "NO! YOU ARE GOING TO LISTEN! Your brother just almost died! I'm not risking that happening to you! now please! Go!" I yelled. Kili's eyes watered and he nodded. "Echo! I said. She tuned and looked at me. "Take them back to Erebor. Watch them." I said. I helped lift Fili onto her back and Kili held onto him before she took off. I watched them before forming back into my fighting form. I suddenly heard Thorins yell. I sprung from where I stood and ran up the cliff. Suddenly something nailed my back, hammering me to the ground. I shrieked and looked, a large Orc, who's body had iron coming out of it. I growled and swung before biting his stomach, my sharp teeth tearing through his flesh. I felt his axe cut my leg, deeply. I growled in agony and threw him from the cliff, plummeting to his death. I ran, pushing through the pain in my leg. I ran until I slid into ice...there was Thorin and Azog who was struggling, holding onto a piece of ice trying not to drown. I stayed quiet and watched Azog slip under the water. Thorin with his back to me, I watched him follow Azog under the ice. "Thorin don't!" I yelled forming into s girl. Thorin looked at me over his shoulder. I felt time stop...as in the blink of an eyes Azog broke through the ice...stabbing his sword through Thorin's stomach. Thorin screamed in agony as he shoved his sword through Azogs chest. I could make a sound...just stand there. My heart stopped. I watched Azog disappear under the water and Thorin throw himself to the side so he wouldn't go into the water. "Th-Thorin...THORIN!!" I cried. Suddenly I saw an Orc from the right begin to run at him. "DONT TOUCH HIM!" I screamed in fury before running at the Orc, picking a sword up from the ground and sliding, slicing right through his head. I turned to though and gasped before running to him before sliding onto my knees to his side. "Tygr..." He breathed. "It's me...I'm here." I said. "Your...your supposed to be in our room...with our baby." He said breathlessly. "No, I'm here with you." I said. His eyes closed for a moment, "My love keep your eyes open! Don't you dare go to sleep!" I cried. My shock was passing through as I looked down at his abdomen...bleeding. "N-no...we need to fix this!" I said panicking. My mind raced faster than I could handle. I felt my tears falling and heard Thorin laugh faintly. "My love, don't cry...I hate seeing you so sad." He said. I chocked on a sob and looked down my bracelet. "Th-Thorin you need to swallow this." I said as I took another pellet out of my bracelet. Thorin opened his mouth and I dropped it in. He swallowed it and said nothing. I held onto his hand tightly. "We're going to be alright, okay?" I said. Thorin looked at me, his bright blue eyes hazy. I felt my head go light. I looked back and saw a large gash in my calf...gushing blood. I looked back to Thorin before my eyes began to drop. "Thorin...promise you won't leave me...don't you dare...I need...I need you." I whispered before collapsing down with my head on his chest. My vision leaving me.
