"Aye that's him" the deep voice rumbled again from directly behind Bilbo. Bilbo tried his best to calm him self with out alerting the two men that he was nervous and vary afraid. Thorin runs a hand over his beard it was short and well kept. He slowly approaches the smaller man tied to the chair looking down at him like he was searching him for some thing or a reason any reason at all. "So Smaug reached out to you?" Thorin spoke slowly he voice deep like the summers thunder. When he spoke those words it was a statement not a question. Bilbo swallows hard the Durins had a hate on for Smuag, his palms began sweat again worse than the last time. "W-well yes" bilbo stutters out his voice sounding small and weak like a small animal."why?" Thorins voice as louder this time and commanding. bilbo feels his eyes widen looking up at the man towering over him. Bilbo didn't answer he was in shock by the sudden change in his voice. He opens his mouth and shuts it again, he couldn't find the words to explain what had happened. Then what happened next shocked him even more there was a sharpe sting on his right cheek the man standing before him known as Thorin just struck him! "Why?" Thorin repeats again his voice sounding dangerously even. Bilbo swallows hard "W-well you see he came to me because I well I'm vary good at what I do." Bilbo spoke his voice becoming more even as he becomes more brave. The heavy foot steps sounded again from behind Blibo the man came to stand beside the other. this one was much more intimidating than Thorin. He was taller long hair that had the top shaved, he was absolutely covered in tattoos and vary muscular, and like Thorin he had a beard. "And what is it you do lad?" The other man asked his voice was deep and had a heavy Scottish ascent. "Well I'm a thief or bugler as you like to put it." He says looking up at the two large intimidating men before him. "What did Smaug want from you?" Thorin asks his voice still dangerously even. Bilbo bites his lip thinking it over it could go over badly if he tells them, but it could go over worse if he doesn't tell them. When Bilbo didn't answer Thorin hit him again this time with much more force causing Bilbos head move to the side with the force. The coppery taste of blood soon fills Bilbos mouth, the slap had split his lip and there was sure to be a bruise froming. "For me to still the Arkenstone and some sort of file." Bilbo says looking up at the men Thorins hand connected with Bilbos face again one or his heavy steel rings cutting his cheek, the force of the slap caused his head to snap to the side. "What file was it?" Thorin all but growls out his posture becoming more tense and ridged. "It was labeled VB10 that's all I know was that he wanted the file and the stone." Bilbo says sternly, "did you speak with Smaug directly?" Dawlin asks his voice more curios than demanding. "No one of his goons spoke with me, and for the recorded I didn't want to, they forced me." Both men raise there eye brows in suspicion. "You lad expect us to believe that you were forced into to doing that with no proof?" Dawlin say slowly looking down at him. Bilbo sighs "lift my shirt and you'll see" he says looking at the men towering before him waiting to see what they were going to do next. Dwalin looks at Thorin, Thorin nods to Dwalin. Dwalin steps forward lifting Bilbos shirt carefully more than Bilbo would have expected from such a large and intimidating man. Bilbo looked down at his now exposed stomach and some of his chest. It was covered in large purple and yellowing bruises burns from cigars, and cuts probably from some sort of knife or blade. Bilbo could have swore he herd Thorin take a sharpe breath in upon seeing the state of Bilbos stomach and chest. "Why did you have the Arkenstone if you gave it to Smuag?" Thorins voice was slightly softer than before but his posture still ridged. "Because Smuag cheated me by only giving my a third of what we agreed on. So I stole it back, I was going to get the file as well but I couldn't find it. I was going to express mail you the stone today before you lot stole me." Bilbo says looking in to the icy blue eyes or the Gang leader standing before him. "So you didn't do this for Smaug willingly you were forced to?" Thorin asks looking in to his prisoners eyes briefly before looking at dwalin. Dwalin looks at Bilbo "you were going to give the stone back lad?" Bilbo nods "yeah, it wasn't like I woke up one morning and said hey this sounds like a good plan I'll go see if I can work for Smuag who happens to the enemy or the largest and scariest nod family in the United Kingdom and steel some thing that means the word to them and really fucking piss them off." Bilbo says looking at them half expecting to be hit again, but to his surprise he wasn't instead dwalin laughed it was deep rolling laugh that bounced of the walls and clapped him lightly on the shoulder. "you know Thorin I don't mind him." he says looking to Thorin who looked to be almost smiling "send for Gandalf and have Oin come and have a look at his abdomen and face." he says to Dwalin before leaving the basement dwalin fallowing close behind. much to Bilbos delight they left the door cracked so there was a small amount of light left in the room.
