Fanalis of Middle Earth

Hitting the Road

Random POV:

It was early in the morning when the dwarves had started to wake from there slumber. They had quietly cleaned up place making it look exactly the way it was supposed to be.

They didn't bother waken up Bilbo or the stranger but the wizard left a the contract since he had a strong feeling that Bilbo would change his mind, though he was unsure about the mysterious person.

Morgiana's POV:

I woke up when the sun was shining in my face. Groaning a bit when I sleepily made my way to the kitchen to grab a bite to eat also forgetting that dwarves were even there.

Once I fully woke up I tense when I realize there was supposed to be dwarves here. Looking around the place I notice that everything looked spotless...'wow they clean up well!'

"Bilbo!?" I said once I saw him standing near the table that had the company's contract. Bilbo who was staring at me looked at me with a determined expression.

" I'm gonna go" he didn't need to explain himself because I knew he was talking about the quest. I couldn't stop the smile on face as I felt proud of Bilbo.

"I'm going as well" I saw Bilbo's  shocked face before it quickly turned stern.

"No Morgiana! It's dangerous for you and I wouldn't want anything to happen to you" I felt happy that he was concerned about me but I know he would be far more likely to get hurt than me, plus! it's in my blood to fight. I especially, will fight for the ones I care for no matter what even if I die all over again.

I grabbed onto Bilbo's shoulders and leaning a bit so I was close to his face.

Random POV:

The sudden action from Morgiana cause Bilbo to be startled slightly since she moved fast but Bilbo's heart started to beat faster when she brought her face close. He froze solid when his eye's met her's. Her face was stern yet stoic but it was her eye's that got Bilbo to freeze as her eye's held a raging fire that wanted to consume anything it's path.

"Bilbo I'm going with you! I appreciate the concern for me but it's in blood to fight so I'll be able to help and protect you. I know you still don't me well but I need to do this! I also can't stand by seeing my friend go into dangerous situations without me to at least help a bit" Bilbo was shocked by Morgiana's words as he felt they held such a deeper meaning.

Meanwhile Morgiana was letting her words sink into the hobbit she couldn't help but think of the other's back home, all those times she was pushed away to not help those she cared for. She had to watch them struggle even though she could've helped them, she knew there were times they had to struggle to better themselves but she couldn't help but be frustrated with herself since she hated being useless.

Tears were threatening to spill in the corner of her eye's but she wouldn't allow them to fall since she needs to stay strong.

Bilbo couldn't help but wonder why would she go so far for someone she didn't know for long.

Morgiana's POV:

I watched as Bilbo sighed but looked at me with soft smile. " alright but I think we should hurry before there too far ahead"

I smiled while I nod my head, both me and Bilbo quickly grabbed some stuff for the trip, I grab my cloak to put it on once Bilbo was ready to go. He grabbed the contract and raced out the door with me right behind him. Racing through the shire we ended up getting some weird looks from people.

"Hey! Mr. Bilbo where are you off to?" said a hobbit as we were running by.

"Can't stop I'm already late!"
