Bellas POV

I couldn't have been asleep for more than 10 minutes when voices woke me up. I rubbed my eyes and tip toed over dwarves following the noise. I found Elrond and Gandalf arguing.

"Gandalf leading a company of deserves to reclaim Erebor is madness. If you wake that dragon-" Elrond hissed.

"We will take care of the Dragon it has sat there too long if dark forces gain its allegiance-" Gandalf cut Elrond off. I heard footsteps behind me and I turned to see Thorin.

"There is no dark forces we are at peace" Elrond snapped.

"Well whether you like it or not the dwarves will march on that mountain. Thorin Oakenshield believes he answers to no one and so do I" Gandalf growled. They both stormed off.

"Shouldn't you be sleeping" Thorin asked.

"I woke up" I replied.

"Why didn't you eat dinner" Thorin changed the subject.

"Yeah I should be sleeping" I tried to walk past him but his caught me.

"Why didn't you eat dinner" Thorin repeated.

"I uh wasn't hungry" I mumbled.

"Sure you weren't not being hungry for days isn't normal especially for hobbits" Thorin pushed.

"I'm not a normal hobbit" I retorted.

"I'm asking you a final time why didn't you eat dinner" Thorin said calmly. Then he turned me so I was looking up at him. I was instantly transfixed by his eyes and didn't answer.

"Bella" Thorin said sternly.

"I will not be a burden on this quest I refuse to be. So I refused food and only ate the apples I brought from home. I was hoping I could eventually learn to hunt so I could help with the food situation. I fell into the habit of not eating I guess" I replied angrily and pushed past him.

Adrianas POV

My dad's face when Bella stormed away. It was priceless. The perfect balance of shock, worry, regret, anger, sorrow, and something else. Might be wandering how could I pin point all these emotions well my elven side allows me to read emotions. That last emotion confuses me though. It's warm and nice feeling. I've never really read it before.

"Dad that's no way to flirt with a girl" I teased and ran out.

"You heard the whole thing" Dad raised and eyebrow.

"Yeppers and is it also your fault I can tell your feeling regret" I inquired.

"Yes but how do you know" Dad demanded.

"I can read emotions I just read all yours they are:shock, worry, regret, anger, sorrow, and something else. I can't read the last one all I know is its warm and nice. But up can't read people's emotions if they don't know know they exist."

"That's a cool talent I bet it's from you elvish parent" Dad rubbed my hair.

"Elvish parent you said elvish parent not mom" I back away.

"Oh I meant-"

"Are you my real father" tears brimmed my eyes. Dad paused and I could see a tear fall down hi face.

"No"

"What!!!!! Why didn't you tell me!!" I screeched.

"I didn't want you to feel like you weren't my daughter" Dad took a step closer.

"But I'm not" I cried.

"Yes you are I love you I should have raised you fully but the time I did was the best. We aren't related by blood but by bond" Dad wrapped his arms around me. I sobbed into his chest.

"Who are my real parents"

"I don't know. I found you one morning outside the gates. I fell in love with your eyes and your smile. I knew your were my daughter" Dad stroked my hair. We just stayed there for awhile hugging comforting each other. I was still in shock. All this time I thought he was my real dad. I guess my parents didn't want me. At least I have someone who cares about me.

"Thorin I dont have much time but you and the company have to leave as early as you can the council may try to stop you on this quest you cannot let that happen" Gandhalf rushed over and told Thorin before rushing away again.

"Well okay" I muttered.

"Are you coming" Thorin inquired.

"That's a stupid question of course I'm coming I just found my father after 60 years of hell. I'm not gonna let him go" I said sternly.

"Wait 60 year of hell what happened to you"

"Uh uh well I was kidnapped by Thranduil I was forced to be his personal servant for 55 years. Till Elrond somehow managed to convince Thranduil to transfer me to Rivendall. So for 5 years I served as a guard here. I was happier here but still..." By the time I was finished Thorin was seething.

"Calm down" I patted Thorins shoulder.

"I will not calm down that elf has wronged me to many times" Thorin stamped his foot. "When I reclaim Erebor we are going to war with the elves of Mirkwood" Thorin swore.

"THORIN DURIN" I shouted Thorin froze. "You will not go at war with the elves we need allies not enemies. You are not thinking like a king your thinking like a father. As Mich as I would like to see Thranduils head on a stake and I'm sure the other dwarves would too. But that's not smart. We would become enemies of all the elven races. Besides it was kinda Thrors fault he took away their Starlight gems. Thranduil was only settling a score" I explained.

"You think more like a ruler than me one day you will rule Erebor it will be a golden age" Thorin admitted hugging me. "Also my new last name is Oakenshield you need to ask Balin about that story though."

"Thanks dad now he get some rest I have to pack" I shoved him away and rushed of to my room. When I got there I packed a few changes of clothes, a hairbrush, and some apples. I braided my hair. Then I filled my quiver and put it on my back on with my too long daggers. I hid knives multiple places and put a sword on my hip. I was currently wearing my guard outfit. It was a blue tunic with black leggings underneath and a leather chest piece. (Like Tauriel's only different colors.) Before I left I scribbled a note to Elrond saying where I was going, resigning and apologizing.

Dear Elrond

I know you must have seen this coming. I'm leaving Rivendall to go with my father to Erebor. It where I belong. I for May resign my guard post and apologize to you. I'm sorry I'm leaving so suddenly. Thank you for your hospitality to me and for saving me from Thranduil.

-Adriana

I left the note on my vanity and rushed of to the pavilion where the dwarves where.
