Two Lost Souls Chapter 3

Chapter 3
Misty Moutains and a bride to be

Raven

I looked at him, what are we now grumpy from the seven dwarfs (more like thirteen). He has black hair and a beard and wore cloths like from the high rank.
"I would have been lost if I did'nt see the mark on the door," said the dwarf
"there's no mark on the door," Bilbo said "it was freshly painted,"
"um Bilbo," Suzan said "there is one gadnelf traced it on to the door,"
Bilbo turned to look at Gandelf with a Glare. Gandelf did not know what to say, but just stare at the Hobbit.
"Bilbo," Gandelf said finally "allow me to introduce the leader of our comapany, Thorin Oakenshield,"
Thorin looked at Bilbo then gave him a smaug smile "so this is the Hobbit," he said
"uh yes a very kind Hobbit on that," I said trying to get away from Suzan's grip but it was tight "Suzan do you think you can let go?"
Suzan sighed and let go of my shoulders as I walked towards Thorin and greeted him with my hand.
"My name is Raven sir," I said
Thorin looked at me then took my hand and shook it. His grasp was tight that it almost made my hand snap in half, I made a small squeak under my breath. Thorin looked at me, while I made a huge grin on my face making a worried brow onto my face. Thorin letted go and looked at Bilbo. Bilbo was not sure to greet this dwarf at all.
"tell me hobbit can you use a weapon?" he asked
"uh well not really," said Bilbo
They all laughed softly. I knew they were making fun of him, so I took Bilbo's shoulder then said.
"there is no need to hunt prey," I said "we are all on the same side,"
"Raven stop," Suzan said quietly strictly
Thorin looked at me and I looked at him. Suzan walked towards me and grabbed me pulling me towards her again.
"you'll have to forgive my friend she is a little niave sometimes," Suzan said
"Suzan stop," I said "I am not 5,"
"you act like one sometimes," Suzan said
She was right though, but I can take care of myself too...maybe not Suzan is the only one that can drive the bullies away. I sighed and wakled away trying to clear my head. Suzan looked at me and then at Bilbo.



I sat down trying to not think about how I am a dumbass. All the dwarves were sitting talking and Gandelf was also. I grabbed the string to my shirt and started chewing on it. Chewing on things give me a comfort zone. I saw Bilbo walk towards me, I looked at him still chewing my string, then I spitted it out and sighed.
"joining the stress party?" I asked
Bilbo chuckled "you look like you have more trouble than me,"
I huffed a laugh "besides the mess in your house...sure,"
Bilbo sat next to me and looked at me "why are you so stressful all of a sudden?" he asked
I sighed "I am not sure you'll understand but really...I have been picked on by Bullies alot latetly and I have been called alot names and been talked behind my back...more like being stabbed," I said
Bilbo looked at me baffled, he could not believe what he was hearing.
"I thought you were loved by thousands," Bilbo said
I smiled and huffed another laugh thinking it was a joke "I wish...you have no idea what it's like to be nothing when you want to be something,"I said
Bilbo carefully rubbed my back. I looked at him and smiled, I turned to see the dwarves still talking I sat up and walked towards the gang and looked over what they are looking at.
"beyond the peek is where the dragon is," Thorin said
"Dragon?!" I said, then took the map to see a dragon, it was red and huge...I loward the map smiling then looked at the dwarves "I'm so in for this," I said
"Raven," Suzan said "no no no and no, a dragon really Raven I mean were talking huge,"
"the lass is right," Balin said "it be best you stay away from this journey,"
"I can't,"I said "I made a deal with Gandelf that if me and Suzan help him, then we can go home,"
all the dwarves looked at Gandelf, then Gandelf clreaed is throat "I am sure we can argue with that later right now we must talk about Bilbo,"
"wait me," Bilbo said
"you asked me to being the fourteenth memberto our quest and I have chosen Mr Bilbo Baggins," Gandelf said "hobbits can be unseen by most people if they chose which gives us an distantant advantage,"
"me no no no," said Bilbo "no I don't want to be part of any adventure,"
"why not?" I asked "every body wants to be a hero,"
"not me," Bilbo said "I am peacful and clam,"
"wait a minute," I said. I looked at Gandelf "did you ask any knights to help you with this journy?"
"yes but they won't help...there is no reward in I could pay for them," Gandelf said
"and no damsel in disstress right?" I asked
Gandelf nodded, I graoned. It's so typical for men these days, they want to be remembered but they just can't stand by not being noticed at all, but again I wanted be loved by all too. I sat down and shrugged. Anyway I was listeing to the conversation and such. As I saw Gandelf give Thorin a key and Thorin was looking at like it was finally his to take back. They were trying to get the dwarves home back cause like I said, a dragon. The dragon took all the gold away from the dawarves and their home. I thought dragons were good (though correction saint gorge and the dragon). I thought about the movie dragonheart Draco...if only if he was in this world but yeah no. I could convince the dawerves that not all dragons are evil, but their dwarves they are stubborn and just listen to their leader. I sat down still listening to the conversation. Suzan stood against the wall looking at Thorin. I smiled a little then I heard.
"Gandelf must have killed many dragons?" said Ori the youngest of the dwarves "come on tell us,"
They all waited and then Gandelf was coughing not knowing what to say. I thought he was going to be in trouble. So I stepped in.
"I met a dragon," I said
The dwarves stopped and looked at me while I was just silent. Thorin looked at me listening what I said. I wished he ignored. God why do I have to yell things out. Suzan looked at me with a face saying "really come on"
"you have," Bofour asked
"yeah...I have," I said acting cool and smooth "he was my friend, his name was Draco,"
"where is your friend then?" Thorin asked like he somehow he knew I am lying to his men.
"he is dead cause he sacerficed himself to deafet an evil king and he turned into stars into the dragons heavens, he risked everthing for the people and me," I said
"really?" Fili asked
I gulped softly "of coures he was a friend and I always look into the stars and see him looking down at me and my friend Suzan,"
Suzan face palmed and graoned. I sat back down almost feeling sick now, I think I am actully going to faint. My stomach was making me sick and swallowing too. God what am I going to do.
"give him the contract," Thorin said
Balin gave the Contract to Bilbo which Bilbo looked at it...and it was very long, it even had extra panflets on the side. I walked towards him and looked at it with him. Wait so your just gonna let him die in this Journey. Bilbo then read.
"shall not be responsible held towards...insineration?" Bilbo asked looking at the dwarfves.
I took it and then read it myself then looked at the dwarves like "really".
"well that would be refrense to smaug the terrible," Bofur said "he'll melt the flesh of your bones in a blink of an eye,"
Bilbo was trying to breath like he was going to faint himself. Then Balin asked
"you alright laddy?" Balin asked
Bilbo breathed in from his nose then said "nope," then fainted. I gasped making sure he did not hit his head onto the ground. Thorin just groaned while Suzan rolled her eye's. Boy this is gonna be a long night.

The Orcs were riding to their headquaters were their master, the pale orc was waiting for them. They made it towrads the ruins that used of been a small house made out stone. The ratskulls were gathered as a pack and the rest of the orcs were there too. One of the orcs were walking towards the master. The pale Orc was sitting on a ruin chair made of stone with his eye's closed. The Orc cautionly walked towards his master.
"My lord I bring news to you," the Orc said
"what that the elves are a gathering like you said last time," the master said
"no no," the orc said "we have found two strangers...humans,female humans,"
"so," he growled
"but one of them is perfect for you the one you saw in your dream...the sunset girl," the Orc said
The pale orc opened his eye's listening he turned to the orc "don't get my hopes up fool. was she the one I describe to be my queen?" he asked
"yes my lord, with golden hair like the dwarfs gold and blue eye's like the moutains, and her skin delicate and pale," the orc said "we found her with another human, she had brown hair like moving tree's and wore red clothing like the dragon that took the dwarves home,"
"after all this time...she came to me," he said "find out were she is, follow her and her friend, I need to know every thing about her,"
"but master...she is with the Wizard they call Gandelf the gray," the orc said
That did not make the pale orc happy not even the slightest "then you make sure that you split her up away from the wizard," he yelled
"yes master," the orc said

"just let me sit for little while," Bilbo said with a cup of tea that I made him. He was trying to realax from the fainting saranade. I sat down onto the floor next to him while Suzan joined me and sat next to me.
"you have been sitting there for too long Bilbo," Gandelf said "you need to be out and enjoy your self,"
"not likly," Bilbo said
"why not?" I said "there's nothing holding you back,"
"there is and it's my fear," he said
I sighed, though I can some how know he is a brave soul but...he wants to be safe and healthy. I don't blame...I am in the mood for Pizza though there is nothing for Pizza.
"And I can't go around into blue I am a baggins of bagend," Bilbo said in a strict voice.
"and also a Took," Gandelf said "did you know your great great great great great great great grandfather rode a huge horse and chopped a goblins head that it went over the moutains that it fell into a rabbit hole,"
me and Suzan looked at Bilbo with awe and shock "really?" we both said at the same time.
Bilbo looked at us not know what to say.
"it was also the invention of golf too," Gandelf said
I laughed softly Bilbo was blushing. Pretty cool that people made golf cause of a chopped off head. I thought it was pretty funny. It sorta remined me of the aztects that they have fights or wars the winner gets to drink out of the losers head or something. I shudderd at the thought of that. I looked at him and rested my chin on the arm of his left chair.
"Bilbo come on this would be fun I mean I'll go with you," I said
Bilbo looked at me while I made a small smile. Gandelf sat from the other side from Bilbo and then Bilbo looked at Gandelf.
"Can you promise that I will make it back?" Bilbo asked
Gandelf paused then looked shook his head "no...and if you do you will not be the same,"
Bilbo sighed and took a sip of his tea. I made a worried brow on my face. I got up and walked towards the sink and started to wash the rest of the dishes. Now I am beggning to not want to go, how can I suvive when I have no idea how to defend myself. I took care the last of the dishes. I walked out to the door and closed it and sat on the bench that Bilbo sat on the frist time I met him. I sighed and looked at the stars and then the moon, I looked up at the goddess as she shines down aupon us.
"goddess?" I asked "why have you brought Suzan and me here?"
but she did not answer, I sighed looking down. Then the door opened to see a dwarf, it was Bofur, he looked out and saw me sitting on the bench. He closed the door and walked towards me. I looked up at the moon again hoping to get another answer.
"please Goddess?" I called softly "I want to know?"
"who you talking to?" someone called
I gasped and turned to see one of the dwarves walking towards me with his pipe. I looked away and then looked up at the moon again.
"I was just...talking to myself," I said
The dwarf sat next to me while I looked up at the sky. Bofur looked at me smoking his pipe.
"that story?" he asked "about the dragon...it was not real was it?"
I sighed "your gonna tell the others right?" I asked
Bofur looked at the sky with me then said "no,"
I looked at him "really?" I asked
"I think you have something that our clan of dwarves don't have...besides you and your friend are quit pretty," Bofur said taking a another smoke with his pipe.
I looked at him and laughed softly lookign away "thanks," I said
Then the door opened to see Kili, Ori, Dawlin, and Bifur come out walking towards us. I turned then Kili leaned a elbow on Bofur lookign at him with a smaug smile.
"so Bofur putting the moves on the little lady?" Kili asked
all of the dwarves laughed while Bofur was blushing embrassed. I was trying not to laugh myself but ya know...men or excuse me dwarves can be like that.
"you said you met a dragon," Ori said "can you tell the story please?" he asked
I paused for a minute then looked at Bofur "yeah I would like to hear if the lass don'y min?" Bofur asked
I smiled as all of the dwarves had their drinks and was ready to listen.
"alright?" I said "but I warn you this story will make you have a headache with confusion,"
"try us girl," Kili said with a cocky grin.
I smiled "my pleasure," I said

Suzan

I looked out the window to see Raven with some other Dwarves while I think she was just telling them stories. I sighed and sat down, I was too hard on her and I did not mean it. I did not want to lose Raven. She was my best friend and I love her very much, and if I lose her...I would not know what to do with her.
"your friend has spirit," said a voice
I turned to see Thorin, Fili, and Balin looking at me, I turned at the Window withe dwarves laughing with her, I nodded.
"Raven is smart too," I said "though...eversince we came here and Orc things came and attack us...we were scared,"
"then why you coming along?" Thorin asked like he was concerened
"because...Raven can tell of the good that she needs to do," I said "Raven also just wanted to be apart of something eversince she was bullied,"
"the lass seemed she is loved by all from her story," Balin said
"but sadly...the stories do not bring other people to love her," Suzan said
Then Bilbo looked out the Window looking at Raven while they were talking a laughing. I looked at Bilbo then walked towards him and sat next to him then said "amazing is she not?" I asked
Bilbo looked at me then at the window "she does have alot of spirit," Bilbo said "are you sisters?"
"no," I said "Raven lives with her father while I live with my aunt and uncle, our mothers died along time ago on the same day,"
"oh...what about your father?" Bilbo asked
"he left me with my aunt and uncle and wanted nothing to do with me," I said
"...I'm very sorry to hear that," Bilbo said
"it's fine the past is the past right now I am looking towards the future watching over Raven,"
"I'll do the same," Bilbo said
I looked at Bilbo then ruffled his head "it's good to know that Raven has an admirer," I said teasing him.
Bilbo started to blush while Balin, Fili, and Thorin was chuckling. I chuckled myself and looked out the window. To see Raven twirling one of the dwarves sword around her fngers, I  chuckled knowing she was good at that, then after that she was smacking blades with one of the dwarves that must be Kili. Then Kili tripped her pointing a blade to her throat, then he helped her up shaking her hand for a good fight. I walked towards the sink to take care of the dry dishes as I saw Gandelf leaning again the wall looking at me with his pipe.
"are you alright dear Suzan?" Gandelf asked
"yes," I said "I am just...thinking about how me and Raven might be trouble during your journy,"
"I believe that is rubbish my dear?" Gandelf said "it looks like we are going to need the help from you two also,"
"how can you be sure?" I asked
"I noticed that your friend has the name of Raven after the black birds...therfor the prophcy tells when the Ravens come flying to the moutain of airabor then the regin of Smaug is over," Gandelf said
"and what of me?" Suzan asked
"a light will guide us...and to your gold silk hair you must be the light we need," Gandelf said
I smiled "thanks for the pat on the back," I said and then went back into taking care of the dishes. I was washing my hands while there was a puddle in the sink, then I saw a glowing light on the puddle. I took a closer look at it...then there was a blast of fire in my face, I screamed falling backwards dropping the wash cloth and falling on to my butt. Gandelf looked at the sink just to see water then he looked at me as I was breathing in and out, then there was running footsteps as Thorin came running in with his sword, he saw me on the floor as I turned at him then at the sink.
"th-th-there was fire it spitted at me," I said pointing my finger in the sink.
Gandelf lookd into the sink then at me "I see no burn marks Suzan," eh said
"but-but-but it was everywhere," I said
Thorin looked at Gandelf with a frown on his face as he was helping my up on my feet, I dusted my self looking at Thorin "thank you," I said
"your welcome," Thorin said
After that more feet were coming down the hallway as I turned to see Raven all worried "what happened to you?" Raven asked
"I...nothing it was nothing," I said waving my hand
"Suzan are you sure?" Raven asked
"yes really everything is alright," I said
"okay," Raven said "um...I guess I'm gonna get some sleep then,"
I sighed then I walked towards her and gave her a big hug "I'm sorry Raven, I think I need some sleep too,"
Raven hugged me back "it's okay were all stressed today,"

# # #

As me and Raven took a nap together on a couch in a different room Thorin and Gandelf watched us rest for awhile from the other side of the room.
"what did she mean she saw fire?" Thorin asked
"I saw no burns or soot that could cause any flames...it maybe a memory from her past or she might have some sort of power in her," Gandelf said
"What Suzan said she saw was fire spitting at her...it reminded me of Smaug spitting so much fire at the doors of the moutain," Thorin explained
"oh," Gandelf said "Raven is something as well,"
"yes," Thorin said "if she have met a dragon then I need to know how to destroy one,"
"Careful Thorin," Gandelf said "she said that the dragon was her friend...you have to ask her the right question to do that,"
Thorin sighed "so...they are coming along then?"
"we made a deal so yes," Gandelf said then he walked away as Thorin was watching me and Raven sleeping.
Thorin sighed and walked away as he saw Balin sitting down, Thorin looked at his old friend then at the key Gandelf gave to him...that belonged to his home.
"we will be right there with ya laddie," Balin said
Thorin looked at Balin...then at the key "I know...," he said "I will have my home back,"
As the two of them walk into the living room with the rest of the dwarves. AS they sat together.


Far over the misty mouatians cold
to dungounes deep and caverns old
the pines were roaring in the night
the fire was red it blazed with flames
the tree like torches blazed with light

Raven opened her eye's listening to the music, she smilied listening to the tune and melody of the alto and bareatone, and also saw Bilbo looking down on the floor sitting on his bed.
"think about it Bilbo," Raven whispered
then she drifted into a soft sleep and tried to clam her nerves down.
