Pov a/n
➳
Early the following day, we see that the plain in front of the Mountain is covered in legions of Elves and Men, armed for battle. The dwarves, also prepared, watch from above the gate blockade.
➳
Alfrid comes to wake Bilbo up, carrying a bowl of food. "Wakey, Wakey, Hobbit. Up you...get." He pauses as he realizes that Bilbo is not in the room where he had left him.
➳
Thranduil and Bard ride together to the front of the armies and approach their side of the broken bridge over the moat. Thorin draws a bow from above the blockade and shoots an arrow at the ground directly in front of Thranduil and Bard, who immediately halt in surprise. "I will put the next one between your eyes!" Thorin yell. Thorin draws his bow again, and the dwarves cheer and shake their weapons on the wall. Thranduil stares at Thorin angrily, then slightly tilts his head. Instantly, several rows of Elves near the front of the army pull out their bows, nock their arrows, and aim at the dwarves, all in one fluid motion. The dwarves' cheering cuts off abruptly as they but Thorin duck behind the ramparts. After holding the pose for a few seconds, Thranduil raises his hand, and the elves quickly put away their arrows. Thorin still has his bow drawn, though.
Like them shouts, "They have the Arkenstone? Thieves! How came you by the heirloom of our house? That stone belongs to the King!" "And the King may have it - in our goodwill. And her too," bard says and puts the Arkenstone back into his robe. "But first, he must honor his word." Bard continues. Thorin whispers to himself, and the dwarves near him can hear. "They are taking us for fools. This is a ruse, a filthy lie." Balin looks shocked that Thorin's mental state has deteriorated to where he would even consider this. Thorin then yells out.
"THE ARKENSTONE IS IN THIS MOUNTAIN! IT IS A TRICK!" At the top of the ramparts, Bilbo steps out from the dwarves. "It-It's no trick. The stone is real. I gave it to them." As Bilbo speaks, Thorin's expression changes to a mixture of sorrow and anger. Thranduil and Bard look worried, as they thought Bilbo was still safely in Dale. Thorin and the other dwarves look at Bilbo in shock. "You..." Thorin breathes. Bard notices that Silveria beside him is stiff, and her skin starts to change, slowly but it's still changing.
