We stand in silence gazing at Erebor for a second till I fluff my wings and completely collapse on the ground in exhaustion, Emily literally sparks, and Alex trips and falls flat on her face her skin flaring red. That's when Kili snaps.

"You know what? Fuck this! Fuck that," he points to my wings. "Fuck her," he points to Alex. "Fuck you too," a finger to Emily. "In fact fuck each other! Fuck everything!!!" Kili rants.

"Kili!" Fili snaps.

"He's right," Nori mumbles.

"How?" Fili asks incredulously.

"Kili that was rude they saved our lives," Thorin lectures. Kili takes a deep breath through his nose and glances at us. I have nothing to say Emily doesn't either but Alex is tearing up.

"Oh Alex I'm s-"

"I'm so proud of you!" Alex squeals, hugs Kili and kisses his forehead.

"But the language!" Fili gawks.

"Have you heard Alex talk normally? We are used to it. Your brothers right we do owe you an explanation," Emily shrugs.

"Yes I'd like to know why you have wings. Why you can control fire. Most of all how we didn't know the Demon Child was in our midst," Thorin states. Wait Demon Child?

"Oh so you've heard of me?" Alex asks.

"Your tale is widely known," Bofur responds.

"Well I guess you all know it then so no explaining necessary," Alex says.

"Uh what's this about the Demon Child?" I inquire.

"Yeah and why didn't you tell us?" Emily adds.

"Well it's not something that comes up in conversation. But I guess I'll tell the tale anyway for these cute oblivious hobbits. Sit down everyone especially you Oakenshield you look dead on your feet." Everyone sits down laying down their weapons and resting their feet. "Okay well the legend goes like this. There once was a pretty elven lady known as Delilah. Her fairness was known throughout all the land. The Balrog of Moria heard of her and decided to take her so she could hear him an heir. The Balrog decimated her small village and kidnapped her. He impregnated her and nine month's later she gave birth to a baby girl but died in the process. Yeah I'm the baby girl my mom is dead and my dad's the Balrog. Threatened is actually quite precise. But yeah my dad can change sizes and cool his body almost to a normal human temperature so I can do the same. Switching between an elven body and a 10 foot demon body. I escaped my father as soon as I turned 100," Alex explains.

"I'm sorry about your mother," Kili apologizes.

"It's not your fault," Alex shrugs and plops down next to Kili. "Emily your turn."

"Joy well the legend is short so I'll repeat it. It is said that the dragon Smaug had a half brother who was half human half dragon that walked Middle Earth. He started a family and his lineage grew and grew. But no one ever showed signs of any dragonlike traits till one little girl was born with the power to control fire. That girl is me and he wasn't half human he was half hobbit. So there I'm not sure why I have the power and no one else in my family does but I ain't complaining."

"What about you miss Allie?" Dori asks and I shrug. "Are you an angel of some sort?"

"Uh no I'm not. I just have wings. Can't really explain why," I lie.

"What about the black markings on your wings?" Ori asks.

"My soulmates name I can't read it though. It's in dwarvish runes and you guys are super secretive about your language. You can't read them now the feathers on my wings make them impossible to read," I explain.

"We can read then if you'd like," Thorin offers.

"Can you retract your wings?" Balin asks.

"I can retract my wings but I'm too tired so I'm gonna sleep," I mumble, wrap my wings around myself and close my eyes. I rest my head on my right arm and let my other arm sit on the ground. I hear a small metal clink but ignore it.

"I'm tired too losing my shit like that took a lot of energy. Totally fucking worth it though," Alex mutters and curls up.

"Me too," Emily agrees.

Later that night I wake up next to a warm fire. Yawning I sit up and look around to see everyone sitting around the campfire talking and laughing. Thats when I notice all my cuts are bandaged. Oin must have fixed me up.

"So wait if you are two are legends does that mean all legends are true?" Kili asks.

"No way Kili if all legends are true that means the Angel Of Middle Earth must exist too and thats not likely," Fili replies and I choke.

"Yeah no way I have even heard that legend and theres no way," I interject.

"I guess you are right," Kili sighs.

"Anyways now that you are all up lets have a song for celebration," Bofur suggests.

"Yes! Why dont you girls sing!" Kili exclaims.

"Oh no we dont sing," Grace says and shakes her head.

"Besides we dont know any songs," Alex adds.

"We can make one up! Here I'll start," I offer jumping up. My left arm feels oddly heavy but it must just be a bruise.

"I believe if I''d knew where I was going, I''d lose my way," I start.

"I believe that the words that he told you are not your grave," Grace joins standing up and nods at me.

"I know that we are not the weight of all our memories," Alex reluctantly adds standing next to Grace.

"I believe in the things that I am afraid to say," Emily sings and stands up.

"Hold on, hold on," we all sing.

"I believe in the lost possibilities you can't see," I trill pointedly looking at Grace.

"And I believe that the darkness reminds us where light can be," Grace responds.

"I know that your heart is still beating, beating darling," Alex continues.

"I believe that you fell so you can land next to me," Sam suddenly jumps in and pats Emily's shoulder.

"Cause I have been where you are before," Emily croons.

"And I have felt the pain of losing who you are," Grace songs to me.

"And I have died so many times but I am still alive," I belt out.

"I believe that tomorrow is stronger than yesterday," Alex chimes.

"And I believe that your head is the only thing in your way," Sam sings and kneels to wrap her arms around Bilbos shoulder.

"I wish that you could see your scars are linked to beauty," Grace chimes and ruffles my hair.

"I believe that today it's okay to be not okay," I reply to Grace.

"Hold on, hold on," all the dwarves join quietly.

"Cause I have been where you are before," Sam trills. "And I have felt the pain of losing who you are."

"And I have died so many times but I am still alive," I chime in loudly and I'm smiling now.

"This is not the end of me, this is the beginning," Grace sings.

"This is not the end of me, this is the beginning," I repeat my voice getting softer.

"This is not the end of me, this is the beginning," Alex repeats.

"This is not the end of me, this is the beginning," Emily sings again.

"This is not the end of me, this is the beginning," Sam finishes.

This may not he the end of then but it is the end of the first book. I hope everyone enjoyed! Also the song is called I believe by Christina.
