11.) Rivendell

Raven follow them down to the gateways then they cross the bridge as she heard what sounds horse hooves beating against the ground, she looks behind her and saw a group of horses and riders heading their way while the company got close and pulled their weapons Raven just stood in place and stared at them. She watches as the leader who she learns name was Elrond get down and pass over a sword then went to Gandalf and the spoke, for a while till Elrond welcome them and offer them food which just so happens to be everything but meet.

Once they all were seating down after cleaning up Raven was wearing black boots, black pants, and a red long sleeve shirt than a black corset top over it. Raven rolled her eyes and look over and said something in her native tongue" I am sorry Lady Raven what did you say" Lord Elrond ask, " I said I am not a show pony, I will only phase when needed and not on command or to show others my wolf" Raven said and look over calmly, while she watches as Gandalf reeled back as if being slapped and the dwarves trying not to laugh. But of course, that didn't last long since Thorin storm off after Lord Elrond look over the swords, making Raven sigh then she got up and follow after him calmly.

" Thorin I understand your dislike for elves but you must not allow them to get under your skin," she said then saw his confuse face " it a saying anyways you storming off and reacting like that, show them how much they are getting on your nerves plus this is not the elves form Mirkwood," she said then had him stop " listen to me love to take your anger out on a whole race just because of one kingdom isn't right, I sm not saying become best friends with them but who the better person is," she said and watch him while she told him off and she could see that she was getting though go him and that she was making sense. But she knew he wouldn't make it easy for the elves till they prove themselves to him, and that she couldn't fault him for but she hopes Thorin would take her advice and use it.

A couple of days later the company was all pack with their supply and all rested up, and now Thorin, Balin, Bilbo, and Gandalf along with Raven were standing with Lord Elrond with the map, Raven stood there and allow them to talk till they got to the talk about Durin day and they still have time that was when Lord Elrond asks time for what, " for us to get to the Ironhills where the dwarves are having a celebration" she said and still on Gandalf foot to keep his mouth shut, while she took the map and handed it to Thorin. Then she glared coldly when he talks about how Gandalf wasn't the only one who watches over middle earth " then where are this so-called guardian of people who look over Middle earth because from the time I was here and travel not once have I seen them help as darkness covers the land" she said coldly. As she walks forward and stared at him " you all have become lazy and blinded if you don't think that a darkness is coming and that they may have peace for now but not for long and it about time they start to listen instead of blindly following like sheep to a blood bath because from my understanding is that white wizard stays within his tower as Gandalf and the brown wizard travels and see the signs" she snapped then turn and left calmly.

Raven took that time to find the best route to leave then she returns to the company and told Dwalin of the route as they waited for the others to join, knowing they would be leaving first thing in the morning right before the sun rises, so Raven would need to lead the way out and through the route she found. So once everyone was all together they went to sleep since they were going to leave at first light, Raven was dreaming of running with the pack and hearing her cousin voice along with the others, of course, she had no idea how downhill the pack has become since she wasn't there to keep Sam in his place.

Once morning came the company woke up and got ready then they headed out to keep on the path they needed while keeping track of the deadline they need to keep, once they were out of Rivendell Balin had taken over while Raven made sure Bilbo stay with the group, she has grown as it starts to rain on them as they climb the mountain till they ran into the great stone battle then they finally found a cave to rest in.

Of course, no one in the company knew what was waiting for them when nightfall hits but sadly they found out soon since the floor open up below than while they fell but Raven got separated from then but found Gandalf and lead the way as she follows the dwarves scent. But no one knew Bilbo wasn't with them till they got out and saw that he was missing, Raven inhaled smelling Bilbo scent but then she heard what sounds like paws slamming against the ground, she lookup quickly "we got trouble" she said and saw the others look at where she was then they all took off running as Raven shifted and killed a warg took out any who got to close as she listens to what was being said, she bared her teeth while she stared down the white warg and the pale orc, in till Thorin ran past her making her follow and attack, she shifted back when the eagles came and saved them.
