Mirabella crouched by the other hobbits, panting heavily. Her heart was thumping like a great drum, and she was sure they could all hear it. She palmed around for her stick she had brought earlier, and yelped as she saw it in the fire. Grabbing the cool end, she took it out and noticed it was still slightly aflame. Holding it out, and shaking violently, she looked at all the hobbits, and Old Bill. Even he was jittery, holding out his sword carefully.
She moved up next to Ben and mumbled 'What is it??' He shook his head and looked at her with great fear 'What'll we do?'
Mirabella strained to see what it was, and muttered 'Ah well, I'll eat my words...'
