The photo is the best describe on what Zena looks like.

~~~Gandalf's P.O.V~~~

When I left the Hobbit's hole, I went to the forest in search for someone. When I went a little deeper into the forest I heard a yowl behind me and turned. A large Saber Cat was approaching me, it was bigger than any Warg or bear. I smile softly as I knew who it was.

"Zena, I was looking for you." The Saber changed into a girl with waist length sandy blonde hair, sandy brown cat ears and tail, fair skin, freckles, and big violet eyes.

"Gandalf!" She screeched and ran to me. She hugged me tightly and I hugged her back chuckling. She was taller than a Hobbit and shorter than a Dwarf.

"What are you doing this deep in the forest looking for me?" She asked looking up at me.

"How would you like to go on an adventure?"

~~~Zena's P.O.V~~~

"How would you like to go on an adventure?" He asked looking down at me. I squealed and turned into my smallest form, which was a Saber Cub, and jumped up to him. He held me and I licked his face. He laughed,

"I'll take that as a yes, then. Go to a Hobbit hole in the Shire three nights from now, there is a mark on the door." I shifted back into my human form and nodded.

"Yes, sir. I'll see you then?" He nodded,

"Indeed you will. Until then, Zena."

"Bye da!" He smiled at me and walked out of the Forrest. I know he isn't my father, but he raised me when my real father was taken.

I ran back home and started to pack some clothes and a blanket.

~~~Three Days Later~~~

I walked around trying to find the Hobbit Hole Gandalf told me about. I sighed heavily before finding it, the door was open and Dwarves were scattered on the floor. I saw Gandalf standing and walked to him,

"I'm here." I said, he turned and smiled.

"Zena, I trust finding this place was easy?" I frowned and shook my head,

"It was very hard to find. I would've been here sooner." Gandalf nodded and looked at the Dwarves that were getting up. I looked at them in awe, I had never seen Dwarves before, only heard stories of them from Gandalf as a child.

"What is going on here?" Someone asked from behind. His voice sent chills up my spine and goosebumps appear on my skin.

"Ah, Thorin. Glad to see you made it." Gandlaf said to the man, or Dwarf, behind me. My left ear turned to the side when I heard his footfall walk up and he stood next to me.

"It was very hard to find this Hobbit hole, Gandalf." He said beside me, my ear twitched when I heard him shift, meaning he was looking at me.

"And who is this?" I turned to him and almost bit my lip. He was handsome, that's for damn sure.

"I am Zena. Gandalf's daughter." Silence fell in the Hobbit Hole, I could feel all eyes on me and it made my tail wave in nervousness. The Dwarf, Throin, looked at me with a raised brow. He then looked at Gandalf,

"I was not aware you had a daughter, Gandalf." Gandalf only chuckled,

"She isn't my real daughter, Thorin. I found her when she was just a cub and raised her." I moved closer to Gandalf and he put his hand on my shoulder, due to our difference in height, I only came up to his torso.

"I never knew my family..." I mumbled and moved from him, I walked to the sitting room and sat on the floor in front of the fireplace.

Gandalf's POV

I watched as Zena walked to the sitting room with her ears down and her tail wrapped around one of her legs. I looked back at Thorin,

"She has a grudge against the same White Orc as you do, Oakenshield." I said and turned from the Dwarves and went to find the Hobbit.

Some time later

Thorin's POV

I watched the halfling walked around as he read the contract, Zena sat next to me as she read a small one Gandalf had written up for her.

"Incineration?!" Both she and the halfling said aloud.

"Aye, he'll melt the flesh off your bones in the blink of an eye." Bofur stated. "Teeth like razors, claws like meat hooks, extremely fond of precious metal."

"Thank you, I know what a Dragon is!!" They both yelled.

The halfling paced as he read the contract and Zena had lost all color in her face.

"Think furnace with wings." Bofur continued. Zena placed a hand on her stomach and Bilbo muttered something about needing air. "Flash of light, searing pain. Then poof! You're nothing more than a pile of ash."

Zena fainted and fell against me, there was a thud and I turned to see that Bilbo had fainted as well.

"I cannot guarantee they're safety." I said to Gandalf, he only nodded.

"Understood."

"Nor am I responsible for they're fate." Gandalf only nodded and picked Zena up, he took her out of the dining room. I sighed and rubbed my face.

General POV

Gandalf laid Zena on the couch and covered her form with a blanket. He rubbed her head before leaving the room and lighting up his pipe. Thorin and the other Dwarves started to go into the sitting room after a few moments and sat or stood in various places.

Thorin leaned against the wall with the fireplace and stared into it, Zena started to wake and her heart jumped up into her throat when she heard his humming.
(Now would be a good time to listen to that song above)

"Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold,
To Dungeons Deep And Caverns Old,
We Must Away Ere Break Of Day,
To Find Our Long Forgotten Gold,

The other Dwarves joined in and Zena sat up and listened with her eyes closed.

"The Pines Were Roaring On The Height,
The Winds Were Moaning In The Night,
The Fire Was Red, Its Flaming Spread,
The Trees Like Torches Blazed With Light."

They kept humming and Zena started to him with them, she joined in when they started again.

"Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold,
To Dungeons Deep and Caverns Old,
We Must Away Ere Break Of Day
To Find our Long Forgotten Gold,

Zena don't realize that only see was singing and they were humming and watching her.

"The Pines Were Roaring On The Height,
The Winds Were Moaning In The Night,
The Fire Was Red, Its Flaming Spread,
The Trees Like Torches Blazed With Light."

She finished lowly and opened her eyes to see everyone staring at her. Gandalf was smiling at her. Her cheeks turned red and her ears flattened on her head in embarrassment when she realized what had happened, she hid her face in her hands.

Fili chuckled and patted her in the back,

"Don't be embarrassed, Zena."

"Yea, you have a good voice." Kili said as he sat next to her. Thorin just stayed quiet and looked at her, his heart had almost stopped completely when her singing reached him. He pushed away sudden thoughts from his mind. He cleared his throat,

"Alright everyone, get some rest. We leave at dawn." The dwarves nodded and started to settle down, Zena laid back on the couch and glanced at Thorin to see him looking at her. She blushed and he looked away, she snuggled back under the blanket and went to sleep.

(This was originally supposed to be posted back in June or July 17th of this year //2015// but I never got the chance. So....here it is.)
