The Unexpected Dwarf

Chapter 7

We ran down the side of an enormous hill to get to cliff where the goblins would not get us. We finally came to where we could see the edge of the cliff.

"Are you ok?" Kili asked with concern in his voice.

"Kinda I just need to catch my breathe." I said.

"Thorin do you have any water?" Kili asked.

"Yes why?" He snapped back.

"I was going to give some to Lucy." Kili said looking back at me. I smiled a bit.

"Why does she deserve any? What has she done for us? All she has done is distract you!" He yelled at Kili.

"Uncle Thorin please." Kili said.

"No that filthy wench doesn't deserve it." Thorin snapped. I lost it. I ran up to him and pressed my dagger against his neck.

"Call me a wench one more time I dare you." I said. Thorin's face was in shock. "Why do you hate me so much!? What did I ever do to you!?" I screamed in his face. He didn't respond.

"Where is Bilbo? Where is our hobbit? Where is our hobbit!?" Gandalf yelled. Fili and Kili shot each other nervous looks.

"Curse the halfling now he's lost!" Dwalin yelled.

"I thought he was with Dori!" Oin said.

"Don't blame me!" Dori shouted.

"Where do you last see him?" Gandalf asked.

"I think I saw him slip away when they first cornered us." Nori said.

"Where exactly! Tell me!" Gandalf shouted.

"I'll tell you what happened! Master Baggins saw his chance and he took it! He's thought of nothing but his soft bed and warm hearth since first he stepped out of his door. We will not be seeing our hobbit again. He is long gone." Thorin snapped. Fili and Kili looked at each other very disappointed.

"No he isn't." We heard a familiar voice say. Bilbo!

"Bilbo Baggins I have never been so happy to see anyone in my life!" Gandalf exclaimed.

"Bilbo we've given you up." Kili said. I smiled at him. Kili pulled me close and put his arm around my shoulder.

"How on earth did you get pasted the goblins?" Fili asked.

"How indeed." Dwalin said.

"Oh what does it matter. He's back." Gandalf said.

"It matters I want to know. Why did you come back?" Thorin asked. Oh so now he wants to be nice.

"I know you doubt me. I know you always have. And your right I often think of bag end. I miss my books. And my arm chair and my garden. See that's where I belong. That's home. See that's why I came back because... You don't have one. A home. It was taken from you. But I will help you take it back if I can." Bilbo said.

It left a very awkward silence amongst us. That silence soon ended. A howl. Another Warg howl. I'm so done with these bloody wargs!

"Out of the frying pan." Thorin said.

"And into the fire! Run!" Gandalf said.

We ran down the cliff quickly I looked behind me to see a Warg on my heels. I slashed the back of its neck.

"I'm done with these damn Wargs!" I screamed slicing the wargs throat.

We where at the edge of the cliff on a few trees separating us from the 300ft drop. Nobody could survive that fall. The other dwarves killed the remaining wargs.
