A/N
I have decided to put this story on hold. Please take this chapter as an I'm sorry gift.

Lindariel's POV
We had stopped at a barn. Bombur had started on the food and Thorin was talking to Gandalf about going to the Hidden Valley. Thorin is turning down going to the Hidden Valley but I suspect that Gandalf is going to secretly lead us there. Not that I'm complaining. I haven't been to any of the elvish cities in many years. About 10.

I was hanging out in a tree by the camp. I felt like something was going to happen but brushed it off. I am comfortable in trees and often sleep in trees, though there are sometimes that I would sleep on the ground.

Gandalf had finished talking to Thorin and was storming off  mumbling,
"The stubbornness of dwarves."
"Gandalf, where are you going?" asked Bilbo.
"To seek the company of someone sensible."
"Who would that be Gandalf?" I asked coming down from the tree.
"MYSELF."
"Oh so I am not sensible." I state.
"It is not that my dear, it is just that I cannot handle the stubbornness of dwarves at the moment and I need to be alone."
"I understand where you are coming from." I say, looking at the dwarves setting up camp and messing around.
"Go." I say,"while you're at it, make sure our path is a safe one."
Gandalf walks off and I am left with a defenceless hobbit and twelve rowdy dwarves plus a moody dwarf king. I turn to Bilbo and say, "I am going to go hunting. Try not to get into any trouble while I'm gone."
"Trouble? What do you mean by trouble?"
"Bilbo, there are dangerous things in this world. You need to learn how to take care of them yourself. I cannot always be around to protect you from it."
"...alright. I'll see you in a bit."
I head off into the woods with the intention of finding about eight rabbits.

As soon as I am out of sight, I use my other power that Gandalf does not know about. I change into a wolf and use the heightened senses to find food for the hungry dwarves and hobbit. I spot one in the bushes and go into a hunting crouch and catch the rabbit.

//TIME SKIP//

By the time I'm heading back to camp with nine rabbits, feeling proud, I find that the dwarves are gone. Their supplies are left here but I noticed that the weapons are gone. They must be fighting something, I thought. I suddenly hear a yell saying, "We don't have worms, you have worms!" I immediately knew that the dwarves probably got caught by some flesh eating monster if they are yelling about worms in tubes. I go towards the noise and see that there are three trolls and half of the dwarves are tied to a pole which is being turned as if to slow cook them. The other half are in sacks on the floor and I see Bilbo standing up and is trying to get the trolls not to eat them. Should I help them? I asked myself, Will I get anything out of helping them? No probably not. Unless I control the trolls until sunrise and they turn to stone. The worst way to die for a troll. I was still contemplating and finally decided that I would react if they started to try and kill the dwarves off quickly.  I see Bombur being picked up to be eaten and my eyes start to glow. The troll freezes up and drops Bombur while going to the two other trolls and attacks them.
"What are you doing" ugly number one says. "Stop attacking me and snap out of it."
"Well if you want him to stop attacking you then you need to let the dwarves go. Or do you want to die by your own kinds hand." I say.
"Who are you?" Ugly one says. I stop my control for it got boring and being out my sword and dagger.
"No one. Just someone you need want to look out for when it comes to your food choices."
They are stupid. I can tell. The only ones that aren't stupid in this clearing is Bilbo, me and Gandalf who is making his way to the overhanging rock that is going to block the sunlight.
"Can we eat her?" Ugly two asks.
"Not until we get Jeff back to normal." Ugly one answers.
"You won't get what you wish until you release the dwarves." During this, the dwarves and Bilbo are just watching us with shock in their features. Both at the fact that my eyes are glowing white and that they don't get how the troll is attacking his two friends even though they were all buddy buddy a second ago.
"Can't we just catch her and eat her?" Asks ugly two.
"We probably can, wait, who's that?" Ugly one is gesturing to Gandalf who is on the rock.
"THE DAWN WILL TAKE YOU ALL!" He says and lifts up his staff and slams it down on the rock, cracking it and making it break so that the sun shines on the three trolls, quickly turning them to stone and killing them.
