MEANWHILE, THORIN MANAGES TO STAB AN ORC IN THE KNEE; another Orc rushes up and smashes into him, causing him to slide across the ice all the way to the edge of the waterfall, directly over Legolas and Bolg. Bolg knocks Legolas over, but as he raises his mace, Thorin manages to knock an Orc over the edge of the waterfall; it lands on the bridge behind Bolg, breaking through the stones and causing him to fall under a pile of rubble. Another Orc approaches Thorin, who is lying on his back, partially hanging over the edge of the waterfall, defenceless.

As it raises its sword, Legolas manages to throw Orcrist into the Orc's chest, killing it. As it falls over the edge, Thorin manages to reach out and grab the sword, saving it from going over. As Legolas is watching Thorin, Bolg leaps out of the rubble and swings at Legolas, but Legolas dodges and pulls out his two knives, fighting Bolg with them. Maristela calls for Attica, the large wolfhound comes to her aid. "Take Tauriel to safety, Attica," Maristela told the wolfhound in ancient tongue, he bows his head before allowing Tauriel onto his back, leaping from the stone into the ruins to get her to safety per his companions request.

Thorin stands and looks in wonder at his blade that had come back to him; he looks up and sees Azog, alone, facing him. Thorin and Azog approach each other slowly; suddenly, a horn blows and Azog smiles as a hill in the distance behind him becomes covered with approaching Orc help. Azog charges forward and swings a large rock attached to a chain at Thorin, who ducks under it. As Azog is unbalanced by the swing, Thorin manages to get behind him and slash him. Azog angrily swings the rock at him again, and as Thorin dodges, the rock smashes into the ice, cracking it.
