The Fallen

Chapter 8

I have decided on what I'm going to do, if you have any complaints or if you don't like the story, then stop reading it for Christs sake, i'm not making you read it and if you don't want to read it then don't. But if you do like reading this, leave a vote or a positive comment, thank you my lovelies, the person above in the picture is what Jiyong, Kiami and Kiani's armor and clothes look like, but instead of a skirt, they are wearing black leggings, while Jiyong is wearing loose pants. And Kiami is wearing red trim, tunic, and boot details. Kiani has blue trim, tunic and boot details. Jiyong has grey trim, tunic and boot details.

As soon as they saw the cliffs, they saw the other members of their company, watched as Kai walk out of the woods, carrying what seemed to be water skins, but the dwarves were drawn immediately to the big moose roasting on the fire, Nai was fixing the skin and the fur of the moose onto a type of metal, what it was they could not tell, into a pair of arm braces, they were too feminine to be his, so they assumed that they were for one of his sisters or cousins, Kai was carving the moose antlers into a pair of knives, and Mai setting her stuff down near her siblings, the Hi sisters were also setting their stuff down and getting ready for the night.

The only person that wasn't there was Jai, but out of no where, there was something slithering through the group of dwarves near their feet, which caused some dwarves to look down and shout from shock that there was a giant snake slithering, and when they reached for their weapons, the snake's bones started to crack and snap, it's skin started to change from green and black, back to the smooth caramel tan that Jai has, but what shocked everyone was that he was as naked as the day he was born, and all the dwarves starred out of shock.

~Jai's P.O.V.~

As soon as I shifted back to my other form, I felt a bunch of eyes on me, but only on pair mattered to me the most, my mate, my beautiful little Ori, she is so innocent and sweet, I don't think that the dwarves know that we know Ori is a female, but oh well, that makes things more interesting, but now i'm getting bothered by all of these eyes on me, so I decide, why not. I turn around and say" You know, I was told starring is rude, but I don't mind that little Ori is looking at me, she is rather cute."

And with that, I walk over to my siblings who are quietly laughing, at the dwarves shocked faces, well Nai and Kai are, Mai was just sitting there with a big smile on her face. And with that, we heard pairs of angry dwarves coming towards us, so i turn my head towards them while putting on pants and ask them" Can we help you?"

"How do you know that Ori is a dwarrowdam?" Asked Balin, genuinely curious, so Mai replied" Shinchangers have the best sense of smell out of all of the races, so we know that there is a distinguishable smell between a male and a female, especially between dwarves and elves. We knew from the moment that we smelt her inside master Boggins home that she was a dwarrowdam. It's not that hard for our people to tell the difference between male and female."

Bilbo was curious and slightly irked from that comment, so he said" Its Baggins, and what does the smell of male and female smell like in each race?"

"Well, to a Skinchanger for dwarves, a dwarf smells either like coal, ash, smoke or leather, and a dwarrowdam smells like either like flowers, fruit, stone or in Ori's case, books, for elves, the males smell like pine trees and females smell like oddly sweet flowers, for the race of men, the males smell like fish or dirt and the females smell like blood or chocolate, and last but not least, hobbits, the males smell like tobacco, books, fish, or soap, while the females smell like flowers, fruit, sweets, or honey." Replied Nai. "Anything else?"

"W-why d-do you n-n-not mind m-me l-looking? If it's not t-too much?" Asked a blushing Ori. "Well, it's because you, sweet little Ori, you are my Piqpaqtaq, in my language it means love, or in the terms of your people, my one. And I think that your blush is the most adorable thing I have ever seen." Replied Jai, his 6'3 frame towering over her little 4'2 frame. All the while he was walking over to her, and when he got near her, he bent down onto his knees so he was eye level with her. By the time he finished, her face was bright red, because of what he said and by how close he is, so remembering the manners that her brother taught her and said" Oh, ok."

Jahi walked up to her, put a arm around Dori and Nori's shoulders and said with a crooked smile "Welcome to the family, master Dwarves, we expect to see you two over for the holiday's."

"What do you mean!?!? See us over the holidays? Ori isn't going anywhere without us!!" Cried out Dori with outrage.

"Well, then I guess that you two are gonna live with us then, I do not recommend trying to split up your little sister and Jai up, that will give our cousin a rampage. And trust me when I say this, you do not wish to see a rampaging skin-changer." Replied Jahi with joy in her voice.

The Ri brothers looked at her funny when they detected joy in her tone when she was speaking to them, and they were about to ask a question, but she was walking over to her bed roll to get ready for the night.

Kai, who was waiting at the edge of the clearing, heard some quick movement coming, so she alerted the others and formed their protective layer around the Hi sisters, with their weapons drawn out, prepared for anyone to try and harm their younger cousins, but only to relax as 3 figures appear on the opposite side of the clearing.

Gandalf sighed and asked that they show themselves to the company before anyone gets a wrong idea about then, so slowly the three of them glanced at eachother, and lowered their hoods, the dwarves, who were shocked to see two females who looked similar to eachother, the first female had red trimmed armor, but the armor itself was black, she had a long cloaked hood with dark grey patterns all acroos the botton of the cloak, she had tanned skin, with scars across her whole body, but tbe most noticable scar was the one that went down her left cheek all the way to the underside of her chin, the intensity of the scar was shocking, but her eyes are what drew the dwarves attention, specifically Dwalin, they were a deep black, her eyes were almond shaped, her hair was a dark brown in a very long and tight braid that went down to her mid thighs, her body was tense, her weapons of choice were throwing knives that were hidden all across her armor, battle axes that were strapped on her back, battle ulus that were in the sheaths on her thighs, and a curved sword that was strapped at her hip. The female in the armor with the blue trims skin was a smooth ivory, unlike her female companion, she did not have as much scars, but the scars that she did have, we're very thick and ragid looking. Her eyes were almond shaped, but her eye color was a smooth light brown, her hair was a dark brown, like her companion, but it was in a braided tight bun, her body was tense, but at the same time calm. Her weapons on choice were bow and arrows, throwing knives that could fill an armory, battle ulus, and throwing axes. The male, who had his arm wrapped around the female with blue trimmed armor, was in similar armor to his two companions, but the trimming to his armor was trimmed with grey, his skin was a very dark tan, the most noticable scar started on his right cheekbone, and went into his beard and over his upper lip. His hair was in a braided that went to his mid back. His eyes were very small almond shaped, his eye color was a very dark brown. His body was relaxed, but with his arm around the female with blue trimmed armor he appeared to look like he was protecting her, his weapons were a long sword across his back, throwing knives, battle ulus, and twin swords on his hips.

The dwarves, who were shocked by their appearances, they did not notice that they were unable to move until they looked into the eyes of the female in the red trimmed armor, she was glaring at them with glowing dark crimson red eyes. They attempted to grab their weapons, but they were unable to do anything but look around with their eyes.
