(Several days later)

Elysian P/O/V:

We stop riding and come to a ruined farm house. Thorin looks around "We'll camp here tonight." I shake my head "That's not a good idea something bad happened here." he scowls and Gandalf nods "I agree. It smells bad." Thorin scowls "If I wanted your opinion I would have asked." Gandalf scowls and storms off. The dwarves start gathering firewood and I help tie up the pony's and Nala.

I sit next to Bilbo quietly before Bofur asks him to take some food to Fili and Kili who are watching the pony's as we tied them a little way from the camp. I close my eyes deciding to meditate for a while and listen to the surrounding trees. Something distracts me and I focus on it before jumping to my feet. Trolls. 

The dwarves are also all standing and running into the trees. I follow at a distance and watch as they run through them into a clearing attacking the three trolls that are standing there arguing. I scowl and run in the other direction to find Gandalf. 

Thorin P/O/V:

I break through the tree line and see one of the trolls holding up Bilbo. Fili and Kili appear and lunge forward with there swords. The rest of us follow suite and Bilbo ends up being dropped. I scowl as we become over powered and wounder were Elysian has run of to. Why would she just leave us? So much for helping. 

The trolls start knocking us down and we all end up in brown sacks lying on the floor. I scowl and try and escape but the ropes are tied to thick. The others are also struggling and I rack my brains for any possible escape. Bilbo appears again and starts talking to one of the trolls who seems to be a cook of some sort. He mentions something about us having lice and the best way to cook us. The others start bickering but after a moment I realize he is trying to play for time I kick who ever is close to me and glare at them trying to get them to realize as well. Luckily they must get the message as they start agreeing with Bilbo.

Obviously annoyed with each other the Trolls start arguing with each other. One yells in pain and blood spurts from its neck but there is no sign of the weapon or a reason. A second soon joins the yells of pain a deep cut appearing on his arm. The others have also fallen silent as the Trolls search for the reason of their injuries. The third ends up with a cut on his leg and the three of them all hit the ground around them trying to hit an invisible being. The ropes binding us grow loose and I pull the sack away to find they have been cut. 

The others also start standing up and sorting themselves out and a shadow appears. Gandalf. "Let the sunlight claim you." he cleaves a boulder in two and light streams into the clearing the Trolls all yell in pain turning to stone before our eyes. Fili and Kili yell in surprise and I turn sword raised only to find Elysian with her own sword raised Troll blood dripping down it. Gandalf walks over and I scowl at the girl "So you decided to come back did you?" she sighs "I did not leave you. I ran ahead found Gandalf brought him back then ran back to help distract the trolls although Bilbo did a wonderful job."

He beams at the praise and Gandalf sighs "Apparently he was the only one with any sense to play for time." I scowl but don't say anything about it "What were trolls doing so far down from the mountains?" Gandalf frowns "I don't know but I suspect they have a hoard somewhere nearby."
