"No this cannot be happening!" Bobbie whispers to herself. How could the trolls be this far south? It would be nearly impossible for them to travel this far.
Fili and Kili run toward closer cover around the fire; Bilbo starts to follow them, then returns to grab the two bowls of stew that had been left on the log. Bobbie can't help but roll her eyes at her brother's antics as she follows the group to their hiding spot.
Poking her head out from behind the scratchy bark of the tree, Bobbie can see two massive trolls leaning over a blazing fire. They seem to be hunched and crooked with nobbily knees and gruesome features. Their bottom teeth seem to be jutting out in odd angles and their skin is riddled with grime and boils. A large clearing surrounded them. There were high, bushy trees and what looks like a humungous rock wall that seems to be shielding ugly trolls from any light that may seep its way through.
Bobbie looks around the camp for any sign of the lost ponies. Here eyes rake the surroundings as she tries to quiet her heartbeat that seems to be stomping away in her chest. With a deep breath to calm her nerves she spots right in the back in the darkness, two ponies in a quickly made barricade tide off with rope. Bobbie is about to tell the group of her findings when suddenly another massive mountain troll toddles passed toward the fire, carrying a pony under each arm. The wriggle back and forth, trying to escape however the troll doesn't give up, he just shuffles them under his arm and continues forward.
Bilbo gasps out in terror as he sees the sight before him. "He's got Myrtle and Minty! I think they're going to eat them; we have to do something."
"Yes; you should. Mountain trolls are slow and stupid, and you're so small." Kili nudges Bilbo towards the troll's camp has he looks on with a very nervous expression. Bobbie is not too happy this plan.
Bilbo tries to place a defence across, but it doesn't seem to come out in time. "N--n--no--"
They brown haired dwarf tries to comfort Bilbo with a not so sympathetic tone mixed in. "They'll never see you."
Bobbie sees her brother becoming more and more nervous about the situation and tries to cut in, "Kili I really don't think this is a good plan."
Kili turns to Bobbie with a shrug if his shoulders. "It's perfectly safe!" He turns himself back to Bilbo and nudges him even closer to the troll's camp and take his bowel of stew from the hobbit's hands. "We'll be right behind you."
Fili then grabs his own bowel and encourages Bilbo as well. "If you run into trouble, hoot twice like a barn owl, once like a brown owl."
Fili and Kili push Bilbo toward the fire. He begins whispering Fili's instructions to himself, trying to remember them, but gets mixed up. "Twice like a barn owl, twice like a brown--once like a brown? Are you sure this is a good idea?"
