"Kili!" Amanda yelled only to hear another female voice call for him too. 

"Amanda! Taruiel" Kili called out. Amanda ran into Taruiel and they just looked at each other before Bolg appeared and swung for Amanda. Tauriel pushed her out of the road to save her but was thrown by Bolg. Amanda swung her sword at the orc but he was too fast and ducked under it, just in time to stop Tauriel from landed her blade. He grabbed her wrist tightly and twisted causing her to drop her blade and yelp in pain. 

"Kili, no!" Amanda yelled as he jumped in as Tauriel was thrown against a rock hard. Bolg quickly threw Kili far from him with just enough time to turn around and grab hold of Amanda's neck and lift her up. She struggled to breathe as she held onto his wrist for support. But using as much strength as she could muster, she kicked off the wall behind her and kicked Bolg's knee causing him to buckle. This gave Amanda the chance to drop out of his grasp. Just as she did, she grabbed her spare blade from her boot and sliced through Bolg's neck. Bolg stumbled backwards before Tauriel spun and sliced at his neck with her long sword. Cutting it clean from his shoulders. 

"Amanda!" Kili called as he rushed over to her and embraced her in a tight embrace. "Thank Durin you're okay!" he laughed as he placed a hand on the back of her head.

"I'm fine, I'm just glad you are too," Amanda told him before pulling away. "We have to go help Thorin."

"Amanda, Fili..." Kili began,

"Is still alive, I gave him medicine to slow the bleeding. But he doesn't have long. We have to end this," Amanda told him as she also looked to the she-elf. "Now." She told them as all three of them ran back to the iced river.

"Thorin!" Amanda yelled out as they stopped at the top of the cliff looking down. The ice around Thorin and Azog was shattered. And the hills over to the left had legends of orcs from Gunabad marching towards them. Just then from the horizon, the eagles appeared once more. Baorn riding one of them jumped off and shifted into a bear. They watched as the Eagles took down most of the army in one swoop.

"That takes care of that!" Kili laughed and before looking back at Thorin as he stepped off the ice to let Azog fall in. 

" I must go and find Legolas, good luck. Both of you," Taruiel told them before running off in search of Amanda's brother. Kili and Amanda ran down the cliffside to stand by Thorin who smiled at them.

"Amanda, I am sorry for everything I said before," Thorin begged for forgiveness to her. 

"Thorin, I..." Amanda began but saw Azog under the sheet of ice they stood on. But something didn't seem right. 

"Pick up your sword." Just as she muttered this, Azog pierced his blade through the ice and into Amanda's foot. She let out a yell of pain before Azog smashed through the ice. Causing her to fall onto her back. Thorin rushed and pushed Azog off her back before Kili ran at him. He swung his sword but was blocked by Azog, who pushed the blade away. Opening Kili up to allow his blade to impale him in the stomach. Kili grunted as the blade was pulled out.

"Kili!" Amanda yelled as tears brimmed her eyes. Kili hit the ground and bounced before laying motionless. Thorin yelled in anger and jumped onto Azogs back. Azog managed to grab hold of Thorin and flip Thorin over his head to slam him into the ice. Azog went in for the kill, but Amanda swung her blade for his neck. He saw this and blocked her efficiently before grabbing her by the neck and throwing her against a rock wall. Amanda's head bounce of the ragged surface causing her vision to double and blur.

"Thorin," Amanda muttered as she tried to focus. But her vision began to move in and out of the darkness. She saw Azog pierce Thorin's chest, then nothing. But her vision returned enough for her to see Thorin drive his blade into Azog's heart. He rolled him over and pushed it further in, killing Azog completely.

"Thorin," Amanda muttered as she heard him groan in pain. Amanda shook her head to bring her thoughts back enough. She stumbled to her feet, looking to her left she saw Fili sitting against the rock not ten meters from them. She ran over to him to check and see how he was. He was unconscious but breathing. Amanda sighed with relief before dragging him over to Kili and Thorin. Now all three Durin lay next to each other, upon the frozen river of Ravenhill. The orcs had been defeated and the battle of five armies won.

"Did we win?" Kili asked breathlessly. 

"Yes," Amanda answered him as she sat by his side. "Yes, we won." She muttered with tears clouding her vision. "I'm so proud of you my love, you fought so hard." 

"We are all proud Kili," Thorin spoke out raspy.

"Are you hurt?" Kili asked Amanda who just shook her head softly.

"Apart from a few scratches. I'll live." She chuckled to him softly.
