Salacia PoV

I patted my thighs as I walked alone towards the inn where we where kindly given rooms. As I neared mine I pulled out the key and unlocked it. "Wow...nicer than I was expecting." I said as I closed the door behind me. I quickly sat down on the net and pried my boots off and rubbed my aching feet. I ran my fingers through my hair and sighed, laying on my back. I tossed my arm over my eyes and breathed steadily, not a worry in my mind for the first time in near to a month. "Salacia?" I heard Kili's voice through the doors. "Three minutes of privacy? Record." I muttered as I got up and opened the door. "Yeah?" I asked. "Oh, Thorin just wanted to make sure you made it to your room alright." He said. I rolled my eyes and grinned. "Yes, I'm quite alright." I said with a grin. Kili flashed that charming smile of his, "that's great! We're all drinking so...would you care to join us?" He asked. I scowled slightly, "maybe in a little bit. I have some things I need to do." I said. The dwarf shrugged and wandered off, I quietly closed the door. "Alright...time to get myself in check before I go out and get hammered." I said to myself as I pushed furniture around until I had a large open space. I rummaged around the room. "Common...help me out here." I muttered as I dug through the bathroom of the room, looking under the sink. I growled and sat back running my fingers trough my hair. I looked back over my shoulder and grinned. "My luck sure is lucky isn't it?" I asked myself as I twisted back and grabbed a small bottle of bath salts that where left on the side of the tub. I stood back up and walked back into the bedroom before popping the bottle over and making a light circle of salt before tossing the now empty bottle onto the bed. I sat down cross legged into the floor. 'Alright~ let's clear your mind Salacia'

Thorin PoV

I sat quietly listening to my company talk happily. I glanced over my shoulder and noticed something odd...Bofur and Bilbo sitting rather closely to eachother. I raised an eyebrow and laughed slightly before turning back. "Good for them." I muttered quietly. "Thorin!" I heard my nephews voice. "Ah, Kili. How is she?" I asked. "Oh she's alright, she said she would be coming down soon." He said. I nodded. "Did ye notice she looks a wee bit different?" Balin asked. "Aye. Her hair, and eyes." Dwalin said. I nodded in agreement, "I wonder what happened to her in the period of time from when she was gone to when she came to us." I said. They all stayed quiet however nodded in agreement. "Well...I think I'm am going to go and find Salacia." I said standing up, they all looked at me. "What?" I asked. They said nothing but averted their gaze. "Hm. Well...don't make fools of yourselves." I said before turning away. As I made my way towards the door to leave the tavern my arm was grabbed. I whipped my head around and looked up to see a rather bulky woman looking at me drunkenly. "W-where you goin ya sexy dwarf~?" She slurred. I looked at her wide eyed. Suddenly she reached behind me, her surprisingly strong hand groping my rear. "Ah've never slept with a *hic* dwarf before~" she slurred looking at me deviously. 'Shit...' I thought as I tried to shove her away, not being to rough...she is still a lady after all.

Salacia POV

I breathed out calmly, the silky looking light flowing around me fading away. "Finally....my soul is at ease, and my mind is at peace....time ta get waisted!" I smiled as I ran towards the bathroom. I conjured come new clothes, some long black flowy pants, and a short light red belly shirt, that exposed quite a bit of my stomach. I hummed to myself as I looked in the mirror. I pulled on my pants that gently hugged my lower waist and my shirt flowed gracefully. I conjured a beautiful Opel navel ring and swapped it out. I hadn't told any of the company I had my belly button pierced, I'm honestly surprised they never noticed. These piercings where very very VERY rare. I brushed through my handled hair and ran a softening oil through it. After brushing it once again I ran out the door towards the tavern I was told to meet the dwarves at.
As I made my way through the slightly darkened Laketown and tapped on my legs as I walked. I flinched suddenly hearing a loud booming yell. "GET OF OF ME HOUSE YA FAT PIG!" He yelled, followed by a loud slam. My eyes widened and my greater good instinct kicked in, giving me the sense that someone was in trouble. I averted my path and ran towards where I heard the yelling. Suddenly I began to heard crying. As I rounded the corner I saw a woman sitting, absolutely bawling her eyes out. My eyes widened and I ran to to her. "Are you alright?! I heard shouting." I said placing a hand on her shoulder. She looked at me, her eyes drowned with tears. "T-that man kicked me out!" She cried. "Why?" I asked. "Ah caught him sleeping with some skinny whore in our bed!!!" She said. I frowned and stared at the door. "That bastard." I muttered. "I denne care that he cheated! Ah'm scared for me boy!" She cried. "You're son?" I asked. "Aye, he's a strange lad, can do weird things...Derik will beat him if I don't get him outta there!!" She cried. "Weird things?" I asked. "Aye...I don't know what's wrong with the boy. He can make things float and bring our flowers back to life! It's unholy!" She said. '...I wonder...' I thought. "I'll get your son." I said standing. "What?" She asked me surprised. "I said i will get your son out of there for you." I said again as I took her hand and pulled her hand and pulled her up. "Oh bless you!!!" She cried as she hugged me tightly. "Aye aye. Now, is that woman still in there?" I asked. She nodded and sniffed. "Alright. Derik? Correct?" I asked. She nodded again. "Alright, you...go hide out of sight, and what's your name?" I asked. "Beth." She said. I nodded as she went to hide.
