I am loyalty (Thorin / OC )

Chapter 24 : Shift

Adrianna POV

Slowly , the Orc that once stood over Thorin , fell to reveal a terrified hobbit. I watched with disbelief as he bent and yanked his blade from the Orc corpse.

My heart flew as I saw Thorin , still with his head.

Azog snarled at the hobbit , then looked to his orcs.

"Kill him." He bellowed in the common toungue. I snapped out of my trance. I sprinted forward , and stood in front of bilbo , bearing my teeth. A couple of the wargs and riders approach us snarling.

Suddenly , fili , kili and dwalin crashed into the wargs from the side and started fighting them. In the confusion ,bilbo leapt into the fight and started attacking with the others.

I however scan the battle field for my kill. I spot the white Orc and his putrid beast and lung forward. Azog spots me , and moves to meet me.

The white warg hits me in the chest with his great head , sending me fly.

As the fighting continues , Azog and his white warg approach me.

I know that I am about to die. Like my mother and my brother did , I will burn in the flames. My flesh will become fire. As fire is made flesh.

Azog dismounts his beast and walks towards me. As he walks , he drags his blade along the rock to create a awful sound that hurts my ears. Azog laughs , and stops a foot away from me. His putrid breath hits my face is waves.

"Mub pafund tharb ti mubtaum dajal skopar kishaulus ur Shendrautsham

Skalkisham thrak gogan zoshk nudertog ( I killed the first shifter , and now I will kill the last. Shame you will not see your mate die. I assure you , I will make it slow and painful)" Azog growled , before punging his sword thought my chest.

My weapons clattered to the floor , echoing it seemed.

A small gasp of breath left me as I rested my chin on Azog's pale shoulder.

I watched the company fighting the orcs.

Fili , kili and dwalin are being surrounded by orcs and wargs.

Everything seemed to move slowly.

Is this what happens when death comes.

But why am I dying.

I feel no fire.

I feel only the pain of Azog's blade.

Dori slips from the end of Gandalf staff. Ori and Dori fall towards the ground far below.

I watch as a small moth flutters by. I smile , they will all be safe.

The eagles have come.

"Od vi lug vajos? fal kista goi? kitot fos bajrakroth oxhak kri-krisur ( do you feel that? You wonder why you are dying , yes? This sword was given to me by my master. It Is taking your soul. It IS killing you.)" Azog whispered in my ear ,pulling me further onto the blade.

Azog hears the crys of the eagles and spins round , leaving the blade buried in my chest.

The eagles grab orcs and wargs and toss them over the cliff.

Others knock down trees , which crush the wargs below them.

Another eagle fans the flames with its wings , causing an inferno which burns the wargs.

I feel the heat on my skin , as I sink to my knees.

I can feel it , feel my soul being slowly clawed from me.

Azog snarls in frustration.

The eagles swoop down close to Azog and his warg , making them growl and then retreat. The eagles pick the rest of the company up , but leave Thorin and I.

They must think us close to death.

The remaining orcs and wargs flee , as the fire becomes more fierce.

I sheath my blades , if I was to die I would die as a warrior .

I look towards Thorin , and crawl towards him.

"Ki Yawne ( my mate / my love) " I whimper as I reach him.

I cradal his head as the fire creeps closer.

I look up to see Bain.

He kneel down beside Thorin and taps his cheast.

I hear a faint heart beat.

Thorin's heart.

I could cry with happiness , but I must get Thorin to safety.

"* ssshift , you mmussst ssshift *" Bain whispers , then disappears as if traveling on the wind.

Shift . I must shift.
