Earenniel P.O.V

Location: Goblin Town

The Goblin horde brings us through tunnels that network together. Kind of like what inside a ant hill would look like.We reach a massive Goblin wearing a kings crown, sitting on a throne, holding a mace topped with a skull. He was far larger than any of the Goblins, and was incredibly ugly, with warts all over his chin.

Everyone's weapons were piled together.

The massive Goblin jumps off his throne, trampling several Goblins under his feet, and approaches the company.

"Who would be so bold as to come armed into my kingdom? Spies? Thieves? Assassins?" The Great Goblin asks.

"Dwarves, Your Malevolence." A Goblin says.

"And a she elf!" Another Goblin says.

"Dwarves? Elves?" The massive Goblin asks.

"We found them on the front porch." One of the Goblins says.

"Well, don't just stand there! Search them! Every crack, every crevice!" The Great Goblin says.

The Goblins search the group thoroughly, throwing away whatever they find. Óin's hearing trumpet was thrown on the floor and crushed under the foot of a Goblin. My satchel was also throne on the floor as well. A goblin removed my bracelet which held my hidden weapons was also thrown in the pile. I continuously stare at my belongings in the pile.

"What are you all doing in these parts? Speak!" The massive goblin asks.

No one says a word, refusing to speak to the Goblin.

"Very well, if they will not talk, we'll make them squawk! Bring out the Mangler! Bring out the Bone Breaker!" The Great Goblin says.

The Great Goblin points at Ori.

"Start with the youngest." The Great Goblin says.

"Wait!" Thorin shouts.

Thorin steps forward to the front lines.

"Well, well, well, look who it is. Thorin, son of Thráin, son of Thrór, King under the Mountain." The massive Goblin says.

The Massive Goblin bows exaggeratedly to Thorin.

"Oh, but I'm forgetting, you don't have a mountain. And you're not a king. Which makes you nobody, really." The massive Goblin says.

And the rest of the Goblins laughed at what he said to Thorin.

"I know someone who would pay a pretty price for your head. Just a head, nothing attached. Perhaps you know of whom I speak? An old enemy of yours. A Pale Orc astride a White Warg." The Great Goblin says.

Thorin looks up in surprise and disbelief.

"Azog, the Defiler was destroyed. He was slain in battle long ago." Thorin says.

"So you think his defiling days are done, do you?" The Great Goblin asks with a raised eyebrow.

The Great Goblin laughs, then turns to a tiny goblin sitting in a basket and holding a slate.

"Send word to the Pale Orc. Tell him I have found his prize." The king Goblin says.

The tiny goblin writes down the message on his slate cackling with laughter. He then pulls a lever, causing his basket to start sliding down a system of ropes and pulleys it far beyond my eyes can see.

Dozens of Goblins carry massive instruments of torture on their shoulders, bringing them to their king Goblin while he was dancing and sings to us.

Bones will be shattered
Necks will be wrung
You'll be beaten and battered
From racks you'll be hung
You will lie down here and never be found
Down in the deep of Goblin-town

One of the Goblins examines the weapons in the pile. I soon notice it to be my mother's.

"Hey, put that down!" I yell.

As he slides it a few inches out of its sheath. Recognizing the sword, the Goblin gasps in horror and throws down the sword, landing in the view of all the Goblins.

The Goblins howl in fear and rage as they retreat from it. The king Goblin runs rapidly to his throne, trampling many Goblins on his way.

"I know that sword!" The Great Goblin exclaims pointing at the sword.

"If you're afraid of my mother's sword, maybe You're afraid of Orcist as well." I say.

"Orcist is here." The king Goblin says as if it was worse then my mother's sword.

The Goblins began whipping the group with ropes and leaping on them, biting and slashing at them. I try to shake off the Goblins that leapt on top of me, but more kept on coming.

"Slash them! Beat them! Kill them! Kill them all!" The Great Goblin shouts.

I looked to my left to see mutiple a few more Goblins climb and hold Thorin down, and one of them pulls out a knife.

"Cut off his head!" The king Goblin shouts.

The Goblin holds it's knife over Thorin and prepares to behead him.

Suddenly, a massive explosion of bright light fills the Tunnel.

A shockwave rips through, flinging all the standing Goblins in the air.

Everyone was knocked down, including the king Goblin. When the force of the explosion passes, most of the lights in the area had been snuffed out. A shadow with a tall pointy hat walks up.

There is only one person I know with a point hat.

"Gandalf." I say, but how did he do that? Do he do that?

He was holding his staff in one hand and his sword, Glamdring, in the other.

Light slowly returns to the area, we all slowly look up. Every one else was recovering from the shock and they finally stare and notice Gandalf's appearance in the tunnel.

"Take up arms. Fight. Fight!" Gandalf says.

We all quickly got up and begin fighting the Goblins.

As the Goblins run at Gandalf, he kills them with his sword and staff. Gandalf cuts down one Goblin with a left slash, then strikes another Goblin with a right slash, swinging both his sword and staff. He then stabs a Goblin in the chest with his sword.

The king Goblin, still lying on the ground, sees Gandalf's sword and points at it.

"He wields the Foe-Hammer, the Beater, bright as daylight!" The king Goblin exclaims noticing Gandalf's sword.

My eyes drifted to the pile of weapons and I rush towards my belongings. I quickly turn my jewelry back into my weapons and begin to fire my arrows at any Goblin that comes into my sight. There remains turning into gold as the arrow lands into them.

"Where did you get Celestial Bronze?" The king Goblin yells as me.

"So, you know what it is. And you know one fatal shot will turn you into dust." I say turning my bow towards him.

"Oh, I'm scared. a celestial bronze arrow's gonna turn me to dust." He says trying to swing his mace at me, but I easily slide step away he gets angry turning his attention to Thorin who attacking him.

The king Goblin swings his mace at Thorin, but he spins around and deflects the Great Goblin's blow, causing the massive Goblin to stumble backward and fall off the edge of his platform, falling to the depths below. To late to turn him to dust now.

More Goblins continued to attack the group on the platform.

"Follow me. Quick! Run!" Gandalf says.

Starting to run we Cut through the Goblins around us. I look back to see hundreds upon hundreds of Goblins running after us.

"Quickly!" Gandalf says.

"Post!" Dwalin says.

Dwalin and some of the Dwarves cut a wooden post from the side of the path and they hold it out in front of them like a massive spear.

"Charge!" Dwalin yells.

They charge at the oncoming goblins and sweep them away with the long post. Dropping the rail, Dwalin pulls out his axes and knocks aside Goblins that stood in his path.

Glóin hits one Goblin who falls and lands on another suspended path, breaking it and dropping all the Goblins on it into the darkness below. Several Goblins snarl as they swing on ropes toward the group.

"Cut the ropes!" Thorin yells.

I aim my arrow at one of the ropes and watch as it cleanly cuts the rope. The platform falls outward, entangling the Goblins swinging on the ropes.

Several Goblins start shooting arrows at Kili, but he deflects some of the arrows with his sword. He then grabs a nearby ladder and drops it on the oncoming Goblins. Kili and some of the other Dwarves run forward, pushing the ladder with the Goblins trapped infront of them. As they approach a gap in the path, the Goblins fall down into the darkness.

We use he ladder acts as a bridge to cross to the rest of the path. As soon as we cross it, Dwalin breaks the ladder, preventing the Goblins from chasing us further.

"Quickly!" Gandalf says.

We continue running through these maze like paths. Until we come across a section of the path suspended by ropes from above. We all jump on the pathway and the dwarves with swords slices the ropes making the pathway swings away and approach a different path.

"Jump!" Thorin yells.

Several of the Dwarves including I, manage to jump to the other path. However, the suspended path swings back before the others can jump. several Goblins leap on, and as the walkway swings back again, the rest of the Dwarves and Gandalf.

I manage to jump to the new path as well.

They quickly cut the ropes, causing the swinging pathway and the Goblins on it to fall. We follow Gandalf running through the tunnels, killing all the Goblins our path.

Gandalf strikes a rock above them with his staff, causing it to fall down and began rolling in front of the company, squashing all the Goblins in their way.

Soon, we approach a bridge between two walls. As we tried to cross it, the king Goblin suddenly breaks through from underneath the bridge and pulls himself up, in front of us.

I am not gonna even question how he caught up to us so fast.

I looked around to see we're surrounded by hundreds of Goblins, again. approaching us from all side.

"You thought you could escape me?" The king Goblin says.

The Great Goblin swings his mace twice at Gandalf, causing him to stumble back and almost fall.

"What are you going to do now, Wizard?" The king Goblin asks. Well that explains it. Gandalf is a wizard?

Gandalf moves forward and pokes the Great Goblin in the eye with his staff. The king Goblin drops his mace and clutches his face in pain.

"Ow, ow, ow!" The king Goblin yells out.

Gandalf then slices the king Goblin in the belly, making him falls to his knees and clutching his belly.

"That'll do it." The king Goblin says.

Gandalf swings his sword one last time and slices the Great Goblin's neck, causing him to fall, dead. The weight of the massive Goblin causes the bridge to start shaking.

The bridge we are standing on breaks away and starts sliding down the side of the cave.

At the speed it was going it, demolishing everything in it's way. We all clinged on, screaming in terror as we slide down.

I find away to land on my feet while the rest are buried in the wood.

Gandalf get up from the pile of wreckage and inspects the rest of the Dwarves, who were still stuck in the wreckage.

"Well, that could have been worse." Bofur says.

Suddenly, the heavy corpse of the king Goblin lands on the wreckage, squishing the Dwarves further, making them cry out in pain. I looked away. That must hurt.

"You've got to be joking!" Dwalin says.

As the Dwarves free themselves from the rubble, Kili looks up and was shocked by what he saw.

"Gandalf!" Kili says.

The group looks up and saw thousands of Goblins running down toward them.

"There's too many!, My quiver may be infinite, but even I will be towered by them." I say.

"The lass is right. We can't fight them." Dwalin says.

"Only one thing will save us. daylight! Come on! Here, on your feet!" Gandalf says helping the dwarves stand.
