This is a story about a Hobbit whose name is Bilbo Baggins. One

morning thirteen Dwarfs and Gandalf The Wandering Wizard appeared

at Bilbo’s door. The Dwarfs wanted Bilbo to help them conquer a

dragon named Smaug, who had taken over their land.When Bilbo woke up the next morning, they started out on a journey

towards Lonely Mountain. Then, a thunder storm came upon them and

they found a dry cave and slept there for the night. Bilbo was

awakened by a scraping sound, then he saw the stone wall open.

The group was captured by Goblins.They found themselves in a large cavern in the mountain. The

Goblin scowled at them. Then Thorin stepped forward and explained

to him that they did not mean to trespass. Gandolf appeared at

the door and freed the group from the goblins. The group ran

ahead and Bilbo was lost behind them.Bilbo found an underwater lake and a ring on an island in the

lake. He found out that the ring made him invisible. In the lake

also lived a creature named Gollum. Gollum was a creature that

ate other people. Gollum approached Bilbo and Bilbo told him he

desired to find a way out. They then played a riddle game and if

Bilbo won, he lived and if he lost, he would die. Bilbo won the

riddle game but Gollum still wanted to eat him, But then Bilbo

accidentally slipped the ring on his finger and became invisible,

so he escaped.He met with the group again and walked with them for a few days.

Gandolf left the group a few days later. The ring Bilbo had

helped the group through two more circumstances along the journey.The group made it to the base of Lonely Mountain. They then

climbed the mountain and found a secret entrance to the inside,

where Smaug was. Thorin and the Dwarfs stayed outside. Bilbo

went down a hallway and came upon Smaug. He then slipped on the

ring he had found earlier and became invisible. Smaug awoke when

Bilbo tried to steal a gold cup.Smaug knew that the Hobbit was there because he heard him. Smaug

told Bilbo that nothing could pierce his scales. But when Bilbo

searched Smaug’s body he found a scale was missing in one spot.

So Bilbo grabbed the cup and ran out of the mountain.Smaug followed Bilbo and started burning the city. Meanwhile,

Bilbo had told a bird to find a hunter named Bard the Hunter and

to tell him that Smaug had a weak spot below the neck. Bard the

Hunter came and saw the spot and plunged an arrow into Smaug,

Smaug fell down and died.
