SoulBlind

Chapter 15

Add had been right about my ring but we still had to smuggle the dwarves through the toilet. I fought to hide my laughter as Dwalin came out scowling. But all that faded when Kili came out. He hobbled up the stairs.

"We need to get that fixed." I said help Kili sit down as the other began discussing weapons and such.

"It's fine..." Kili said.

"It's not. That was a poisoned arrow."

"Does it kill me in the movie?"

"Well no but..." i said before Kili cut me off.

"Then I'll be fine."

I growled. "Fine, we can't leave right now anyway. And I'd need to leave to get the medicine you need."

I pulled away from Kili as they Bard left the house in a huff.

"Uh... did you guys already piss him off?" I groaned.

"Apparently, yes. But that doesn't matter. Tonight we'll make our way to the armory." Thorin said in a whisper.

"Guys honestly that's not necessary. You won't even get around to using those weapons. You'd do fine with a knife." I said.

Dwalin shook his head, "I'm not going with out a weapon."

"I...fine. Oh and you know what? Make sure you take Kili with you." I said. How have put up with this stubbornness for so long?

"I thought you said he was sick?" Thorin said.

"Oh nope. It seems I was mistaken." I said sarcastically before sitting down.

"Andria..." Thorin started.

"Nope." I said.

"Just.."

"Ah!" I cut him him off.

Thorin tried one more time but I stood firm. They'd make it to the mountain just fine. With full armor and great weapons. So what if it's not the way they expect. I was tired anyway. I had starred out of the window for awhile. A few of the dwarves watched in concern. But eventually I had fallen asleep.

I woke quickly to hands shaking me.

"Where are they?! Where have they gone?!" Bard said, nearly pulling out of my seat.

"By now? Probably being hauled away to see the master since they didn't want to listen to me." I said. With a sigh I got up. "Come on."

We rushed over to the masters house just as a crowd had formed.

"This is Thorin! Son of Thrain! Some of Thror!" I could hear Dwalin yelling.

"Perfect timing." I muttered.

"We are the dwarves of Erebor. And we have to come to reclaim our homeland!" Thorin spoke.

Bards face heated with Andre as Thorin continued. And he was just about to March forward when I stopped him.

"Nothing you say will change anything. It's pointless." I said.

"He will kill us all!" Bard said.

"Then stay here and evacuate everyone. Be the person who gets them out early! You will kill Smaug. And your family will live either way. But maybe this way you'll be able to save more." I said, trying to convince him.

Bard shook me away and continued forward. "Death! That is what you bring upon us!"

I sighed and let him finish his argument before I stepped forward. "I am here with the dwarves. And whether you side with them or not they need weapons and armor."

"And who are you to make such a request?" The master asked.

"That's her sire! Thranduil's soul mate." Alfred said stepping out from behind the Master.

"I am Andriel. And it is my understanding that all the trade and wealth of this town comes from Thranduil. I don't think you would disrupt all that good wealth over a few swords and chestplates would you?" I asked, chin up and a smirk to match.

I glanced down at Thorin who lowered his head and smiled. I think he quickly understood his error.

"In that case I say...Welcome! Welcome!" The Master shouted.

Bard scowled. Before walking off.

"You'll have to remind me to listen to you from now on." Thorin said to me before walking away.

From there the Master invited us into his home and hosted a party. Drinks were passed to everyone. It wasn't long after the laughter, food, and games that I was completely drunk. I wouldn't have been had they not kept refilling my wine. I couldn't walk straight, not that needed to walk anywhere.

I don't remember what I was doing when I looked at Kili, he was so pale. I looked over to Fili who was laughing about something Bombur had done.

"Hey..." I said. "We really need to worry about Kili."

"Andria! How much have you had?" Fili said looked over a bit concerned.

"Too much...you guys kept rrr...re..refilling my drink. And...well I didn't want to not drink it!  You know reject it....that's just rude." I mumbled, swaying as I leaned.

"Okay then why don't you just lay down right here and we will worry about Kili tomorrow."

"Okay...wait your not just saying that cuz I'm drunk right?"

"No." Fili smiled patting me on the shoulder as I layed down right there on the floor.

I let out a sigh. "Okay....I believe you..."
