Allie has a daring look on her face as to say "if you dare bitches." Grace coincidentally has the same look. Alex has this silly prideful look on her face and she musses Allies hair with her hand.

"I've taught you well young one," Alex smirks. The dwarves gape and Thorin just hits his head against a tree. Yeah no one even tried to grab at the key. Not even Nori.

To say the weather is bad was an understatement. It is awful and had oh so convenient timing. It hit right as we hit the mountain pass. So let's mix pouring rain, with heavy wind, slick rocks and what do you get! A very precarious situation.

Its been 3 days since we left Nedar so 3 days of Allie staring blankly at everyone and everything saying absolutely nothing.  She does flinch ever time the dwarves get close though.  She also flinches every time she is jostled to roughly or moving to quickly. She's refused to let Oin look at her stitches so she's getting worse.

This weather is beating her and the rest of us hobbits down hard. I am on the brink of passing out. I've managed to hold it off this long but I'm getting so wet fainting is definite. Alex has my arm tied to her arm and has to keep snapping in my face to keep me awake. As long as none gets in my mouth I'll stay awake...somewhat.

Sam is staring curiously but not asking questions I told her not to ask. Grace is scowling harshly while gripping Allies arm. Alex is gripping my arm but smiling brightly. Alex likes the rain. A loud rumble followed by a crack of lighting blades across the sky and I groan. Of course a thunderstorm starts now! The storm only gets worse and worse as the mountain pass gets thinner and more slippery. This won't end well. 

"Alright, hold on!" Thorin warns to everyone has he passes through a particular slippery thin strip. Bilbo slips but the dwarves next to him stop him from falling off the edge. Letting out a deep sigh of relief I shake my head to stay awake. "We must find shelter!"

"Really you don't say!" Grace snaps.

"No Thorin I really love this awful weather lets dance on the slippery rocks forever!!" Alex growls. She may love the weather but she loves being sarcastic more. I falter and trip Fili grabs my shoulder and steadies me before I fall.

"Careful now," Fili says. I smile with my mouth closed I cannot get any water in my mouth.

"Look out!" Dwalin yells suddenly and we all look up to see a giant rock flying towards us, it hits the edge of the mountain, shattering around us.

"Hold on!" Bofur tells Allie who lost her grip when a rock hit her hand.

"This is no thunderstorms! It's a thunder-battle! Look!" Balin shouts pointing off in the distance. I see a stone giant fighting another stone giant.

"Well bless me. The legends are true! Giants! Stone giants!" Bofur exclaims stepping away from the mountain side.

"Take cover, you fool!" Thorin demands as another rock comes towards us.

"Hold on!" Nori hisses grabbing Bofurs arm. As the stone giants fight each other the mountain breaks beneath us. It breaks right in half and each half of the company on each ledge gradually grows apart.

"Kíli, grab my hand!" Fili nervously shouts to Kili holding his hand out. Kili freezes with terror as we break apart. Fili leans over farther but I grab his arm and yank him back before he leans too far. Suddenly the mountain we're on comes to life and starts fighting with the other stone giants. We appear to be on the knees of the giant and we are very much separated from the rest of the company. By "we" I mean Fili, Bofur, Balin, Nori, Thorin, Allie, Alex, Grace, Dwalin and me. This giant we are on doesn't move very fast so it gets knocked down quick and the other ones smashes into a jagged cliff edge crushing the rest of the company. I stop thinking correctly and Fili goes completely pale.

"KILI," Thorin yells. The knee we are on quickly connects with the other so we take our chance and jump on a non living cliff. Thorin runs followed by Dwalin to the place the others got crushed. But we are greeted by very much alive dwarves and not crushed bits.

"We're alright! We're alive!" Ori assures when he's tackled by Dwalin.

"Thank Mahal," Thorin praises when he sees Kili. Fili runs and hugs his brother followed by Alex who joins in the brothers hug. She won't admit it but she cares.

"Where's Bilbo? Where's the hobbit?" Bofur asks abruptly. I jerk my head to look around when I see him dangling off the edge.

"Get him!" Thorin shouts and I drive towards his hand. I reach over the edge towards him but my arms are to short to reach him.

"Grab my hand! Bilbo! Come on and take it!" Bofur encourages falling to his stomach next to me and reaching for him. I send a glance towards Allie who is kneeling and glowing a concentrated look on her face. She nods at me letting me know she can do what has to be done if necessary. Bilbo still can't reach. Dwalin falls on my other side and desperately reaches but it's no use. Finally Thorin jumps down and helps Bilbo up. Just then Thorin loses his grip on the ledge so I dive forward to help him. Dwalin grabs his other arm and helps Thorin up.

"I thought we'd lost our burglar," Dwalin sighs in relief patting Bilbo on the shoulder.

"He's been lost ever since he left home. He should never have come. He has no place amongst us," Thorin growls and Bilbo looks visibly hurt. Allie steps forward about to say something but Grace grabs her arm. So I step forward Fili reaches to grab my arm as I waiver but instead knocks me and I loose my footing falling backwards. A scream erupts from my throat and water invades my mouth.

"EMILY," Sam screams. That was the last thing I heard before my world went dark.
