The moment Fili died, Kili lost all will to attempt to win the arena. Time passed inconsequentially and Kili paid no mind to the pain in his stomach or the creatures that wandered out of the mist until he saw a blonde three inches shorter than him. Life breathed back into Kili at the sight of his brother whole and with it a fervent desire to not fail his brother this time; they would go to the orchard together and neither would be left by himself. By the hand, Kili led his lethargic brother toward the orchard only to find what Kili could only describe as a rock monster between them. Before even needing to speak, Kili identified Orc as a threat, something he had to defeat to protect his brother and he would not fail Fili this time.

"Go hide," he tried to urge Fili away, but the blonde stared back at him blankly, ever silent.

When he turned back to face Orc, Kili now had the only knife of Fili's he'd kept for himself curled in his hand. Without another moment of hesitation, he charged with a shout, knife held high. He would protect Fili, he would save him this time, he would not let him die.

Orc was mad.

He had gone so long without getting upset. Without wanting to hurt people.

But the Capitol had gone too far. They'd pushed his buttons.

You want a monster? You've got one.

Orc barely registered the dwarf before he was ontop of him. In a jerky, startled sort of way he flung his hands out to shove Kili off him, each arm covered in coarse pebbles.

Kili leapt onto Orc without a second thought for anything but protecting Fili and stabbed his knife down toward the pebbled arms as they thrust toward him. He could only hope that he could kill this thing before it got a hold of his brother but as he was shoved back down into the dirt with a brutal force, snapping his head back against the ground, anger surged up inside of him. It bubbled over despite the pain and he leapt again at the creature with another arc of his knife.

[paidinbeer]

This time the knife found it's mark, sparking through the pebble armor and piercing a crack in Orc's second layer of skin. Dark blood leaked through as he howled in pain and swung that same arm hard, this time toward the ground trying to flatten the burly little man.

"GET OFF ME!" He bellowed.

[emptytrousers]

The swipe was more than enough to knock Kili's grip from the knife and slam him down against ground once more. Behind his eyes, stars bloomed and for a moment all he saw was white as pain blossomed up his spine. He tried to roll to the side to avoid a second such blow if it ever came, but when he came to his feet, his head swam.

Of course, that did not stop him from jumping once more, albeit much clumsier than before. He had to, though, he had to teach this monster to not go near his brother.

"Stay away from him!" He cried out as he leapt toward Orc again.

[paidinbeer]

This jump seemed to startle Orc and he stumbled back, tripping on the curb and flattening a mailbox as he fell onto his back The metal digging into his lower back made him roar with deafening sound. The pain was excruciating and he could just hear the stone cracking under him.

Taking the opportunity presented, Kili crossed the distance between them, raw anger in his expression as he stabbed downward with the knife toward Orc's neck. He had to finish this before he became too dizzy, too dazed by so many hits from the monster.

[paidinbeer]

This time Orc was fueled by fury and that made his motions faster and sharper. His arm came up to block the knife, but this led to the blade sinking into his forearm.

"ENOUGH!" He snarled grabbing for the dwarf with his uninjured arm. If he got ahold of the dwarf he would spin him over head by the back of his clothes.

[emptytrousers]

The blade sunk into Orc's arm and Kili tried in vain to remove it, but it was stuck fast in the monster's rocky skin. Before Kili could even realize it enough to move away, Orc's arm closed around his own much smaller one. There was no escape now.

"GO AWAY YOU JERK!"

Swinging Kili over his head once, twice, three times! Orc roared a booming angry roar having it echo through the streets before releasing. Flinging Kili head over heels for the roof of the nearest building. He wanted to put as much distance between them as possible.
