Chapter 22: Skye boat
Amanda let out a loud scream as a burst of pain burst through her. She gripped Kili's hand as the pain was shocking through her. Kili had moved so he was sitting on the bed behind her and Amanda was laying between his legs with her back against him. Her head fell back onto his shoulder as she painted struggling to breath. Kili placed a hand on her forehead and kissed her cheek.
"Your doing amazing." Kili whispered in her ears as he began humming. Another burst of pain shocked through her and she yelled again.
" Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing, onwards the sailors cry." Kili sung lowly to her to calm her down.
" One more push!" An elf shouted as Amanda screamed again gripping Kili's hands.
" Carry the lad born to be king, over the sea to Skye." He sang to her as the sound of a baby cry was heard in the room. Amanda smiled but let off another yell as another shock of pain rippled through her.
" You have to push again. There is another baby." The elf called. Amanda let out another scream as her head fell back.
" I can't Kili, I can't." She said out of breath.
" Yes you can. You are the strongest person I have ever known. If anyone could do this, it's you. So come on, you can do it." Kili encouraged her as her face screwed up in pain and another scream rippled through the air.
" Sing for me, Kili." Amanda begged. Kili smiled softly and began singing again.
" Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, Thunderclouds rend the air; Baffled, our foes stand by the shore, Follow they will not dare." Kili sang gentle to her as he rocked her in gentle movements. Amanda screamed once more before the sound of more crying was heard.
"Two healthy baby boys." Tauriel smiled to them as Kili smiled.
" Two more boys." Kili muttered to her and kissed her gently. Amanda's head was on his shoulder as she took in long deep breaths for air.
" Thorin and Sil." Amanda muttered quietly to him. Kili nodded with a simile and looked to her.
" Beautiful names." He kissed her forehead softly and she smiled. Amanda sighed heavily as she closed her eyes and rolled her head closer to Kili's neck. He held her close as her breathing slowed down.
" Keep singing." Amanda told him as the rain bounce off the window. Kili sighed and pulled her close to him as the elves left them alone.
"Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, Onward! the sailors cry; Carry the lad that's born to be King, Over the sea to Skye." He sang to her softly as she listened to his deep and peaceful voice singing the song she had taught him.
"Though the waves leap, so soft shall ye sleep, Ocean's a royal bed. Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep, Watch by your weary head." He sang to her, his voice wanted so bad to break but he would not allow it. Amanda thought back, to the moment she first saw Kili in Bilbo's house. How he kissed her hand and introduced himself to her. Then too when they shared their first kiss.
"Many's the lad fought on that day, Well the Claymore could wield, When the night came, silently lay, Dead on Culloden's field." He continued to sing as Amanda smiled as she remember him asking her to marry him half way through the battle. She thought he was mad but agreed nonetheless. Sharing their first kiss in the battle field as a married couple.
"Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, Onward! the sailors cry; Carry the lad that's born to be King, Over the sea to Skye." He sang rocking her in a gentle motion as the rain hit the window outside under the night sky. Remembering their kiss upon Ravenhill were they thought it was their last, but no. Their wedding day was blissful as Amanda smiled remembering his vows to her. Their kiss.
"Burned are their homes, exile and death. Scatter the loyal men; Yet ere the sword cool in the sheath Charlie will come again." Kili continued gentle to her as the faces of the ones she loved flashed before her. Her children smiling and laughing with joy. Opening her eyes, she looked to Kili. Her one true love and smiled.
" I love you." She whispered to him as she closed her eyes and smiled.
"Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, Onward! the sailors cry; Carry the lad that's born to be King, Over the sea to Skye." Kili sang as his voice cracked. He felt Amanda's breathing slow down until it was almost no longer there. Kili held her closer to him, her body now limp in his arms as the rain pounded the glass of the window. He cried as he held his dying love in his arms, knowing there was nothing he could do.
In another room just a door down from Kili's, Fili and Chris sat upon chairs holding two small bodies into their arms. Rocking them back and forth to shush then to sleep. They dared not to say a word, for they knew what the close future held. A scream of pain and sorrow sounded through the halls as. The pair of brother in laws looked to each other. Tears brimmed their eyes. The boy name Thorin lay in Fili's arms as he began to cry upon hearing his fathers scream.
" Shh shh. Your safe and well." Fili hummed to Thorin. He looked to Chris who's face was stained with freshly fallen tears. Fili frowned as he knew how hard it must be for him. He had just found his sister and now she was in the opposite room dying.
"I am sorry." Fili spoke to him as a tear fell from his eye. Chris looked to Fili with bright red eyes that over poured with tears. Fili could see all he wanted to do was have a total break down, but he was keeping it away while he held Sil.
