*Thorin's POV*

As we charge onto the battlefield we give our all. We unleash fury and turn our sorrows to rage from the last battle here on the fronts. I swing, slicing Orcs left and right. Many of our kin lay dead which give me even more gumption and power to keep fighting. After killing an Orc four more charge at me at once. Glancing I see the familiar red-haired dwarf "Dain!" I call stabbing an Orc.
"Thorin!" he shouts hitting an Orc with his hammer "Hold on! I'm coming!"
On the shoulders of an Orc, he flings it to the ground and smashes its head. "Hey cousin, what took you so long?!" 

I chuckle as I bring him in an embrace "I just needed a little shaking up is all."
An Orc comes behind me but I strike at it without barely looking.
"Lad, is that....lipstick on your mouth there?" Dain asks.

 I reach up and feel my mouth and my eyes widen as I remember the kiss Molly and I had shared.
"No." I say quickly as Dain and I go back to back fighting Orcs. Dain hits two Orcs.

 "I know lipstick when I see it Thorin. And you got a wee peck on your mouth there."
I groan decapitating an Orc "It is not lipstick."
Dain laughs kicking an Orc "Is too."
I growl "Is not."
He chuckles "Is too!"
I then slice three Orcs at once with one blow "Is not!"
We both sigh and look around "There's too many of these buggars, Thorin. I hope you've got a plan."
I look up and see the hilltop on which Azog's wooden machines and signaling orders. I nod "Aye - We're going to take out their leader!"
Dain seems puzzled "Azog..."
I stride forward and mount a large goat that Dain's army had brought. I glare at Azog "I'm gonna kill that piece of filth!" 

Before I take off Dain shouts "Thorin!" 

I turn to see an Orc already swinging down his sword but an arrow catches it in the back and it screams then another in its head. As it slumps over dead I look around to find Kili but instead, I see Molly standing on top of the hill towards Dale. She puts down her bow and smiles and I look at her in amazement. She's dressed in the same clothes she wore the day I met her along with some light dwarvish armor. She nods with a worried smile and takes off towards Dale.
"Thorin?" Dain says.
I turn and look at him and he points "Marry that woman."
I chuckle with a nod before taking off. I am then followed by Dwalin, Fili, and Kili, each on a mountain goat, as we charge towards Azog's hill, smashing through the Orc armies in our way.

*Molly's POV*

I snuck into the city of dale only to be met by fleeing women, children, and young boys. As I look at the rushing crowd I see Bard's kids.
"Molly!" Bain shouts.
I push through the crowd and to the kids.
"Are you all alright?" I ask.
They nod and I motion forward "Come on let's go."
We follow the running crowd as close as we can but we fall behind. While we're running to keep up an Orc jumps in front of us. The girls scream and I take out my sword as the Orc charges. I jab towards it hitting it right in the center of its chest. It hits the ground dead and were silent then I laugh "Ha! I did it! Haha!"
I look back at the kids who look frightened and the eldest one who is about my age holding her hand out.
I nod "Right, sorry, let's go."
As we are running we crash into Bard. 

I gasp "Bard!" he smiles and his kids run hugging him.
"Da!" they exclaim. As they are all smiling and hugging I look down the street to see Gandalf and Bilbo. I look at the family and then begin leaving them.
"Molly!" Bard calls.
I stop and turn as he smiles "Thank you."
I nod "What are friends for?" and I run towards the Wizard and Hobbit. 

"Gandalf!" I call out.

The wizard turns surprised to see me and Bilbo smiles.
"Molly! What on Earth are you doing here?"
I smile "What? And let you have all the fun?"
The Hobbit laughs and so does the wizard. Gandalf nods looking around "We may yet survive this."
I look around and shrug "Yet."
I glance and see an Orc "Gandalf!" he turns and strikes it killing it. He hurries over towards Bilbo who is looking over the edge towards the mountain.

"What is it?" I ask joining them.

"It's Thorin!" Bilbo says pointing. I stop and see Thorin, Dwalin, Kili, and Fili riding up the mountain. "He's taking his best warriors." Gandalf says.
I shake my head "W-what? Why? What are they doing?" I ask.
The wizard looks concerned "To cut the head off the snake."
I swallow and look up seeing where Azog is and I get a bad feeling in my stomach.
"Legolas... Legolas Greenleaf!" Gandalf says. We turn and I see Thranduil's son walking up with Tauriel. He nods to the wizard then see's me. Before he can say anything a couple of Orcs attack. I swing my sword left and right trying my best not to get hurt. I find myself back to back with Legolas.
"You!" he says shooting an Orc.
"You shoved me!"
I stab an Orc and it hits the ground "You pissed me off!"
Once the Orcs were dead Legolas turns to Gandalf "There is a second army! Bolg leads a force of Gundabad orcs. They are almost upon us!"
Gandalf's voice lowers "Gundabad...This was their plan all along. Azog engages our forces, then Bolg seeps in from the north."
Bilbo looks baffled "Wha...the north...where is the north, exactly?!" Gandalf nods towards the mountain"Ravenhill."
My eyes widen and I shake my head "Ravenhill...Thorin is up there! And Fili and Kili - they're all up there!"
Tauriel looks alarmed as well and we both exchange worried glances.

*Thorin's POV*

We reach the top and look around only to find the icy fortress looking vacant. "Where is he?" I mumble.
"Looks empty. I think Azog has fled!" Kili says happily.

 I shake my head "I don't think so...Fili, take your brother. Scout out the towers. Keep low and out of sight. If you see something; report back, do not engage - do you understand?!" Fili nods and we hear growls only to see Goblins. Dwalin grips his weapon "We have company; Goblin mercenaries. No more than a hundred."

I nod to my nephews "We'll take care of them. Go! Go!"
As they run off to the abandoned fortress Dwalin shouts to the Goblins "Come on!" And we swing our swords as we collide.

*Molly's POV*

Bilbo and I follow behind Gandalf as we meet Thranduil "My lord, dispatch this force to Ravenhill! The dwarves are about to be overrun. Thorin must be warned."
The Elvin King looks at Gandalf and nods "By all means, warn him. I have spent enough Elvish blood in defense of this accursed land - No more!" Thranduil walks away haughtily and angrily.
"Thranduil?!" Gandalf calls but the King ignores us. My eyes widen seeing the piles of bloodied Elven bodies on the snowy ground. The blood and snow soak my sneakers and I step back and look away from the sight. I look down shaking my sword swallowing the lump in my throat "I'll go!"
The wizard shakes his head "Don't be ridiculous! You'll never make it!"

"Maybe not. But I have to warn them Gandalf. They'll die."
The Elf King scoffs "You overestimate yourself or underestimate the enemy. You'll die the minute you step out those gates."
Gandalf nods in agreement "Thranduil is right. You have to get home is what you need to do. I should have sent you back to the Shire to wait on me long before all this!"
I smirk sadly "Maybe I should've gone then but I didn't. I have to go now and I'm not asking your permission."
He growls "But they will see you coming and kill you!"
Bilbo steps forward "No, they won't."
Gandalf looks at Bilbo peculiarly as well as me. He smiles "They won't see her."
I furrow my brows "How?"
The Hobbit fiddles his hand in his pocket "I have a plan."
I look at him for a moment but then nod "Alright."
Gandalf shakes his head "It's out of the question - I won't allow it!"
I turn to the wizard and smile sadly gripping his arm "I'm not asking you to allow it, Gandalf. You gotta trust me."
Following behind Bilbo around a corner we stop.
"What's the plan?" I ask.
He is hesitant but reaches into his pocket grabbing something.
"When we were in the goblin caves...I found something."
I furrow my brows "What?"
He is silent again but holds out a ring in his hand. I shake my head "How is this going to-" he cuts me off "It turns you invisible when you wear it. This will get you up the mountain."

"I don't understand."

Bilbo nods "Trust me it will. It's how I escaped the Goblins."

Taking the ring from Bilbo he seems concerned and I nod "Thank you."

 He grips my wrist "But, you must not tell a soul and I will see its return to me."
I nod "Yes, of course." I say confused looking at Bilbo's face. For a moment he almost looks angry. He nods and his expression relaxes "I'll follow you out. Just go out the main gate."
I nod and hold up the ring and slip it onto my finger.
