Mel nodded her head and turned to go back towards the palace, though she had only taken a few steps before she stopped again to look over her shoulder at them. "The two of you aren't going to do something foolish, are you?"

"Whatever would make you think that?" Tauriel protested indignantly. "Of course not! We will be right behind you."

"Let's keep moving, we can't stop!" Thorin called to the others as he pushed his barrel to the shore, letting Maleficent help him out of the barrel as with his clothes soaked through he didn't have enough strength, as exhausted as he was, to do it alone. He then helped the fae to get the others onto the shore as well.

Kili could only take a few steps once he was on the shore before his leg collapsed underneath him, he groaned loudly in pain and put his hand on the wound, as if it would help, gritting his teeth together.
