((Katiea POV))

I tossed in my sleep and opened my eyes to see I was curled up next to Thorin. I smiled remembering what he had told me. 'I'm going to live in Erebor." I whispered to myself. Suddenly an arm was wrapped around my middle and Thorin pulled me close to him. His grip was strong...and protective. I turned around and looked at him. He was already awake and put his finger to his lips telling me to be quiet. He looked away from me but I couldn't help but never take my eyes off of him.

I couldn't help but feel my heart pound faster in my chest every time he looked at me. Something about this dwarf king has my stomach in knots.

I turned more towards him, attempting to shield myself from the cold wind inside the cave when I heard a small amount of talking going on. I realized it was Bofur and...why does bilbo have his bags?

"Your homesick...I understand." Bofur said. "No! You don't understand! This is life for you! Always on the road never settling in one place! not belonging anywhere!" I heard bilbo whisper shout. I felt Thorin's gripp on me loosen.

"I wish you all the luck in the world...I really do..."

All I heard was the sudden sound of sand falling. Thorin jumped up.

"GET UP! Everyone!!" He shouted.

Suddenly we all fell though trap doors in the floor. We all slid down these long slides landing harshly into a metal cage. We heard screeches and the smell is horrible. We suddenly see goblins running towards us. "Thorin!!" I scream reaching for him. Before I could grab his hand we where all pushed away. I grabbed the closest hand near me which was Fili. We continued to be pushed down long wooden bridges by the disgusting creatures.

We where taken into a large opening...only to see the disgusting...goblin king. I resisted the urge to gag.

"Who is so bold as to come armed into my kingdom?" He said.

"Dwarves your malevolence." A goblin said.

"Search them" he yelled.

"what are you doing in these parts?" He asked. None of us replied. "Fine! If they will not talk...then well make them skwak!! Start with the youngest!" He shouted. A goblin grabbed a fistful of my hair and my arm and started to pull me towards the King. "Let me go!!!" I screamed. "STOP!" Thorin said stepping forward.

"Look who it is, Thorin Oakenshield, son of Thrain...son of Throrr! King...under the mountain." He said mockingly. "Oh wait, you don't have a mountain do you? So that makes you...nobody really." He said. Thorin glared at the disgusting goblin king.

"I know someone who would pay a pretty price for you head. Just a head, nothing attached. I believe you know of who I speak of?" He asked. I looked at Thorin worried...I knew who the king was talking about.

"The Pale Orc, astride a white warg." The King said. "Azog was destroyed in battle long ago." Thorin growled. The King raised an eyebrow and leaned to a gross little creature on a swing like thing. "Tell the Orc we have his prize." He said.

I looked at Thorin then to Bofur who looked equally scared.

The goblin king smiled and started to sing. "Bones will be shattered~ necks will be rung!"

Suddenly one of the goblins hissed looking at Thorin's sword. "I know that sword! It is the goblin clever."

Suddenly a bright light shown, blinding us all. It faded to revile Gandalf. He looked at us. "Take up arms! Fight!" He yelled. We all grabbed our weapons and started to beat and slice though goblins.

I stayed close to Kili and Fili and killed anything coming towards me. We all started to follow Gandalf, I was being pushed trying to keep up.

We all ran and used a large pole to start to push huge packs of goblins out of the way. We sliced and diced our way through. I stood with Kili and Fili dodging arrows. I looked and saw Thorin slicing of goblin head after goblin head. I grinned slightly before being stabbed in the shoulder. "AGH!!!" I screeched. I turned and stabbed my dagger into the goblins eyes and kicked him off the ledge. "Are you alright!?" Kili asked. I nodded and caught up with the group.

We followed Gandalf until suddenly we where stopped by the large Goblin king dropped down infront of us. "You thought you could escape me?! What are you gonna do now wizard?!" He said. Gandalf sliced through his disgusting chin and stomach. "That'll do it..." He muttered.

Suddenly the bridge we where on gave sending us flying down the ledge. We all screamed until we got to the bottom. I held onto Bofur like my life depended on it. Once we got to the bottom I jumped off and hugged the ground. Suddenly the large dwarf king fell right ontop of the dwarves. "Ouch..." I muttered. "You've got to be kidding?!" Dwalin yelled. We looked and saw hords of goblins running towards us. "There's to many!" I said. Thorin nodded to me. "RUN!" Gandalf said.

We all maneuvered out of the mountain and ran down a large grassy hill. I panted down breath as we stopped. I suddenly felt someone touch my shoulder. It was Bofur. "I'll bandage that up for you." He said. He quickly wrapped up my arm. I winced as he tightened it. "T-thank you" I said.

Thorin looked at all of us. "Where's bilbo?" Gandalf asked. "Where is our hobbit?!" He yelled. "Curse the hobbit! He's lost!" Dwalin yelled. "I thought he was with you...I saw him slip away." Nori said. "Where is he..." I said softly. "I'll tell you where he is. He's been missing his warm home and cozy life since he left home. He is long gone. We won't be seeing our hobbit again." Thorin said darkly.

Suddenly bilbo popped out from behind a tree. "No...he's not." He said. I smiled and ran to hug him. "Bilbo!" I said. "We had given you up!" Kili said relived. I smiled. "Why did you come back?" Thorin asked. "Your right...I do miss my home, I miss my books, my cozy life. But here's the thing that's where I belong...that's my home. You don't have one...it was stolen from you. But I will help you get it back if I can." He said. "Yeah! Me too!" I chirped. Kili and Fili smiled at me. Suddenly we heard loud howls. "T-Thorin..." I said running to him. "Out of the frying pan..." He said grabbing ahold of my small hand. "And into the fire." Gandalf said.

"RUN!!!"
