Book One Chapter 4-9 end of book one

Chapter Four

After dinner that night they went to bed.

That night she had a weird dream. Eva was in the air without help of dragon. Then she started falling and circling the fast approaching ground. Then Eva woke up in a ball of sweat. Thinking that it was no use trying to go back to sleep she started exploring the rest of the house. She walked quietly, until she found a library.

She started toward a book that caught her eye. Then she heard stirring in the room. She quickly took out her sword and listened.

“You should be sleeping.” She heard Eragon’s voice.

She put her sword away and said,” It is not like you sleep.”

“It is because I don’t wear out as quickly as you.” Eragon retorted.

“Well I can’t sleep so I desided that maybe if I walk around I will get tired enough to sleep. So I will leave.” Eva said as she walked out of the library.

Eva, please, come back to bed. She heard as she felt Jade’s mind rub against hers.

I will in a minute. I am grabbing some candles to read with. Eva found candles and walked back to her room.

She put the candles on the night stand.

I am going to save some matches, I want to try something. Eva got herself prepared for what she was about to do.

“Brisingr.” Eva whispered as the candle lit. The candles were lit by magic. No da, what do you expect from a dragon rider?

Eva do you know that it is risky to do that when you just became a dragon rider? Jade said with concern.

Fine that will be the last time I will do magic with out Eragon’s consent. Eva said trying to soothe Jade. Now go to sleep.

Eva blew out the candles and laid down trying to sleep.

Eva woke up to have Jade twice the size than yesterday. Now Jade was up to Eva’s elbow.

Eva skipped breakfast and walked out to the yard with her sword on her belt. She met Eragon, but something was different. Lilth wasn’t there.

“Eragon, have you seen Lilth? She is usually up before I am.” Eva asked with a hint of fear in her voice.

“No I was hoping you have seen her.”

Eva immediately ran to Lilth’s room. She wasn’t there. She met up with Jett and asked him if he has seen her. And he said no.

She looked into Lilth’s room again, and found Alex.

She relaxed herself and plunged into Alex’s mind.

Alex do you know where Lilth is? It is important. Eva said with panic in her voice.

Big. Scary. Man. Came. Got. Her. Almost. Got. Me. Alex said with the same amount of panic in his voice.

Eva ran back to Eragon and said, “Someone took her.”

“Are you sure? We only saw her yesterday.” Jett replied.

“Alex said a big scary man came and took her. He almost got Alex in the process.” Eva said with her knees trembling.

“Get Alex for me. He has to describe the man more.” Eragon said standing up from his meditation.

Eva sprinted up to Lilth’s room and grabbed Alex and did a mental shout to Jade. Then she hurried back to Eragon.

She quickly gave Alex to Eragon and waited. Waited and waited some more.

Then finally Eragon took his mind from Alex.

“I don’t believe it.” Eragon said looking away from everyone.

“Don’t believe what?” Eva asked.

“My brother, Murtagh, took her.”

“I thought he was on our side.” Said Jett.

“He was. But what made him turn?” Eragon pondered over the question.

“Eragon, this is no time to ponder. My sister is out there somewhere with your maniac of a brother. Are you going to help me or not?” Eva said getting angry.

“Yes. And I know the best person to help.”

“Who?” Jett asked.

“My wife, Arya.” Eragon said looking at Jett.





Jett, Eragon, and Eva were inside because of the rain. Only Jett and Eragon were sitting down. Eva was pacing.

When I meet Murtagh, I am going to hurt him. Eva kept on thinking as she paced.

Then they heard the door open and close. Eva pulled out her sword. When it turned out to be Arya she thought I have to not be on edge so much. But the other side said. You have to be. Your sister has been kidnapped by another dragon rider. What else is going to help you find her? Eva put the sword away as Arya walked towards Eragon.

“What happened?” Eva heard Arya whisper.

“One of my new riders has been kidnapped, by Murtagh. And the girl pacing back and forth is the missing girl’s sister.” Eragon replied.

“Murtagh!? Are you sure? I thought he was on our side after he changed his true name!” Arya said in alarm.

“I am sure. The missing girl’s dragon described Murtagh to a “T”.”

“She has a name. My sister has a name!” Eva said as she walked out of the house.

She walked into the woods and sat underneath a patch of pine trees. She sobbed. She sobbed for her parents and her sister.

“We should have never gone to the royal eggs ceremony.” Eva whispered to herself between sobs.

Jade came and tried to comfort her. After a good hour she went into the house walked up to Eragon and asked, “When are we leaving? The sooner we leave the better.”

“First thing tomorrow morning.”


















Chapter Five

Eva couldn’t sleep that night. She paced so much she was afraid of digging into the floor boards. Every time she closed her eyes she imagined her sister crying because she wasn’t coming.

If we don’t find her in time, I fear that I will go mad. Eva said to Jade when the sun started coming up.

Don’t say that. There is still hope. Jade said.

Eva ran downstairs and found Eragon.

“I don’t know how we will track him down. Our dragons are still too small to hold us.” Jett said to Eragon.

“I know a way but I don’t like it. Eva go to my room and you will find a wrapped up stone under my bed. Please give it to me.” Eragon said as he started walking toward the younger dragons.

Eva ran as fast as her legs could carry her. She quickly found the stone, and ran back.

Eva gave Eragon the stone. Eva isn’t really sure if it is really sure if it was a stone. It looked familiar, yet so strange.

Eragon quickly unwrapped the paper from the “stone” and placed it on Jade’s head. The stone or whatever it was multiplied Jade 4 times her size. Eragon repeated this to the other two dragons.

Eragon ran towards the house and was back quick as a flash with saddles. With lightning speed he put it on the three dragons.

“We better get going.” Eragon said as he and Arya jumped onto Saphira’s back.

Eva jumped onto Jade’s back, and felt dizzy as Jade lifted off. It is going to be alright. She repeated in her mind.

Saphira got quickly airborne. Then Max got into the air, Alex flying close by.

Everyone followed Saphira’s lead as they flew towards the raising sun.

























Chapter Six

Lilth woke up with a headache. Where am I? What happened? Where is Alex? Were the first thoughts as she tried to get up, but found out she was chained to a brick wall in what looked like a cell.

This is defiantly not Eragon’s house. Lilth thought as she looked around more closely. OMG! Lilth you are acting like a blonde again! Lilth thought as she slapped her forehead with her palm.

Lilth looked at her belt to see if she still had her sword. I’m doing it, AGAIN!!!! Lilth looked as the door opened to find a man that looked familiar and different at the same time.

“Murtagh! Help me! Someone kidnapped me!” Lilth said with hope.

“What a silly little girl. I kidnapped you! What has my little bro taught you? Nothing I guess.” Murtagh said with satisfaction.

All Lilth wanted to do was smack that look off his face.

This could be the end for Lilth! Was all that she could think.








Chapter Seven


Eva felt her palm tingle for the first time when they were flying the first 30 minutes. I feel like something’s bad is going to happen. Eva said to Jade.

I know the feeling. We might want to prepare for the worst. Jade said getting tense under Eva. Eva pulled out her sword, holding it tightly in her right hand and clinging to Jade’s neck with her left.

“What is the matter?” Jett yelled over the wind.

“I feel like something bad is going to happen.” Eva tried to yell over the wind. As she put her sword away.

Jett think practical, we could communicate with our minds. Eva did a mental shout to Jett.

Eva smiled and fell off Jade’s back unconscious, and started tumbling and circling the fast approaching ground.

Eva woke up with everyone circled around her. (Even the dragons.) When she tried to sit up she felt a pain in her head.

“What happened?” Eva tried to remember the last time she was conscious.

“You fell unconscious and fell off Jade.” Jett said with a hint of worry in his always cool voice.

“Did I hit the ground?” Eva asked as she felt her head.

“You were going to until you started hovering over the ground.” Arya said as she looked at Eva’s arm to see if anything was broken.

“Hovering? That’s what I did? How could I? I was unconscious.” Eva said as confused as ever. “How long was I out?”

“Two days.” Answered Eragon.

“Two days? Lilth could be d-“

Dead. Eva knew the last word but didn’t want to say it.

“We need to get going.” Eva said trying to sit up, but Eragon lightly pushed her back down and said, “Not until you are better. Rest now.”

HOW CAN I REST WHEN MY SISTER IS OUT THERE WITH YOUR BROTHER? LET’S FACE IT; WE ALL KNOW WHAT HE IS CAPABLE OF! Eva shouted mentally to all of them.

DON’T YOU THINK I DON’T KNOW! I AM WORRIED FOR THE BOTH OF THEM. YOU WOUNDER “WHY, HE IS THE PERSON WHO KIDNAPPED MY SISTER”! IT IS BECAUSE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH MY BROTHER AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS! Eragon’s words were so loud; Eva feared her brain might explode.

Eva and Eragon glared at each other with so much hatred, that Jett was afraid that they would go up in flames. Neither of them flinched from each other’s hostile glares.

With one last glare, Eva walked the other way towards nearby trees. She climbed up one of them and sat on a very sturdy branch. She cleared her mind and tried to make contact with Lilth’s mind. The only thing she got was a big steel wall wrapped around Lilth’s mind. Eva tried to find a crack large enough for her to slip through. She gave up and slipped back into her own mind. A mind full of revenge.



After Eva cooled off, she went back to the rest of the group.

She walked up to Eragon and said,”I apologize. I was being childish.”

“I don’t blame you for being angry. If I were in you position I would be ten times angrier than you.” Eragon sounded like he was stating facts. “We will head off again tomorrow morning.”

After a meal of delicious berries, Eva sang softly a song that her mother taught her. The song was about hope, joy, and justice. The song was sung the most during the end of old Galby’s reign.

Old Galby, you’ve met your match

Your end will come at last

We have no fear

Because Eragon is near

So now you better dash

If Eragon becomes king

He will fix everything

The darkness will end

And off of you we’ll send

At your speeches we’ll yawn

Now you will be gone

Now get out of here

Or we’ll hunt you like deer

Goodbye since it is the end of the song.

Eva sang that song repeatedly that night.

Soon she fell asleep by Jade.

Eva awoke with a start. She heard twigs snapping. She quietly pulled out her sword. She slowly lifted her head to see who it was. An unknown person started rummaging through there things.

Eragon, Arya, Jett, we have company. Eva shouted mentally to the other three.

Eragon quickly and quietly got up when the unknown person turn away from the “sleeping” people.

Eragon put his sword to the skin of the person’s neck. Eva jumped up and so did the rest of the group.

“Why are you going through our things?” Eragon questioned the person.

When the person didn’t answer, he through back the hood of the thief.

It was a man. “Father? Is that you?” Jett asked the man.

“Jett, it is me. Oh my, you are a dragon rider! The rumors are true!” Jett’s father said with joy.

“That doesn’t answer my question. Why are you going through our things? Eragon said getting his sword closer to the man’s neck.

“Because, I wanted to.” Jett’s father turned into a blonde haired man. The man pushed Eragon off of him and aimed his hand at Eva. Saphira roared as she attacked the man. The man got away and aimed a spell at Eva.

Eva ducked down just in time. Her hair was so close from getting singed from the spell.

“Jierda theirra kalfis!” Eva yelled as the man collapsed on the ground groaning in pain.

“Good one Eva!” Arya yelled as Eva tried to regain balance.

Eragon got up and turned the man over so he can see the man’s face.

“Who are you?” Eragon asked with his voice loud.

“Your worst nightmare.” The man said as he began laughing evilly.

“Deyja.” Eragon said as he walked away from the newly killed man.

Saphira and Arya followed him.


Chapter Eight


Eva collapsed with fatigue. Eva struggled to get back up, but her body did not respond. Maybe I shouldn’t do that spell for a while. Eva thought as Jett helped her sit on a log.

Maybe? You won’t be doing that spell for a long time. Jade sounded as tired as Eva felt.

“Jett would you please help me get over to my bedding?” Eva asked politely. Jett picked her up. That was the first time she noticed his big golden eyes. Jett lightly put her down on her bedding.

Jett tickles your fancy doesn’t he? Jade sounding entertained.

Jade! Eva yelled as she felt herself blush.

It isn’t like he doesn’t like you back. Jade said chuckling.

Good night! Eva made it look like she was sleeping, the slow breathing, the still face, all of that.

I know you are not sleeping. You can’t fake sleep at all. Jade said.

They heard Jett chuckle.

Jett and Max are talking about the same thing. Jade said as she pointed her head towards Jett and Max.

I am not going to ask how you know. All I want to do is sleep. Eva said as she really fell asleep.

Eva woke up sore and with a massive headache.

Why does it feel like I got kicked in the head by a horse? Eva questioned as she put her hands to her aching head.

Jade started humming the song that Eva sang last night before she woke up because of the intruder.

Eva blushed as she remembered what Jade said the night before.

Eva help pack up and saddle the dragons.

Why are you so quiet? Eva, I know you better than you think. We will find your sister. I guarantee it. Jade said looking Eva deep into her eyes.

Thinking of things. Thoughts circling my mind like a sandstorm. Right now it seems like my mind is like a deep ocean, a very deep one at that. Eva said looking away.


Eragon, where are we going? Eva asked shortly after lifting off into the sky.

A hideout that I think that Murtagh would be at. It is hard to locate on the ground. We have a good chance finding it in the air. Eragon said trying to get his brown hair out of his face.

Eva heard Arya start singing a song in words she didn’t understand. But it didn’t matter; she still felt the emotion the song was written for. Love, hate, revenge, and joy the song was about.

Eva’s mind drifted away farther with every word. So far that she didn’t even remember where she was.

Eva, stop daydreaming! We are there. Jade said with a mental poke, and Eva was back.

Eva’s pulse quickened with every step. Eva’s hoped raised when she walked towards the door, but she hesitated when she was in front of the door. She looked at the rest of the group as they walked behind her forming a line with their swords in their hands. Eva took her sword into her hand, and unlocked the door.

This is were it will all go down. Eva said walking without a sound into what looked like an old living room. There was a sound of footsteps on the right of her. Murtagh jumped right in front of her. Murtagh attacked first. Eva blocked his blow. Eragon tried to help Eva, but Murtagh threw Eva like she was a toy through a wall.

Through the hole in the wall she saw Eragon sparing with Murtagh. “Where is my brother in there? I know you are not my brother, but someone in his body. WHERE IS HE?” Eragon yelled at Murtagh.

Eva quietly ran to look in the other rooms to look for her sister. She was not in any one of them. She looked into Jade’s mind and saw heat coming from everyone. Eva looked for a body that was her sister’s.

She couldn’t find one.

She ran back to the fight. When Eragon fell on the ground and Murtagh was bringing his sword down on Eragon, Eva found the speed she didn’t know that she had, and ran to Murtagh and blocked his blow again.

“Where is my sister? If you tell me then I won’t hurt you.” Eva said with adrenaline flowing through her veins.

Murtagh chuckled like he was told a joke. “Like you can fight me! Right now your energy is slowly failing you. What do think you can fight me with? Your sword and your stupid little amount of magic? Ha! You are going to lose!”

“I have one thing that you don’t have!” Eva said as she started to sweat. “My power to break minds! My power to chose right from wrong.”

“Where is Thorn?” Arya asked as she pushed Eva away and started brawling with Murtagh. Murtagh threw his sword at Arya. Eragon screamed as Eva yelled, “Letta!” and the sword stopped an inch from Arya’s chest and dropped on the ground by Arya’s feet. Arya let the breath that she held go.

This time Eva didn’t attack him with her sword. She made a fist and punched Murtagh across the cheek. She shakes her hurting wrist as she smacked him with her other hand.

Eva calm yourself! He might hit you back! He is an older rider, and it will hurt! Jade said with concern.

Murtagh gripped Eva by the neck. When she couldn’t break the hold that Murtagh had on her, Jett ran to Murtagh, and kicked him in a spot that no man would like to be kicked in.

Then Murtagh groaned and fell to his knees. “We can hurt you, Murtagh.” Jett said as he picked Murtagh to his feet. “Eva asked you once, where is her sister?”

“What the bloody hell is that?” Eva yelled as a black cloud came from Murtagh’s mouth.

“The thing that possessed my brother.” Eragon said looking into Murtagh’s eyes carefully.

“Hey Eragon! Why are you here? Better question: why am I here?” Murtagh looking dazed and confused.

“Do you remember a girl, golden hair, blue eyes? Maybe you remember her name, her name is Lilth.” Eragon asked Murtagh with precautions.

“Lilth, it sounds so familiar. Oh, the girl with her hair in a tight bun. Yes I remember her.” Murtagh stated looking around the room some more.

“Where is she? Tell me where she is, please.” Eva begged as she stared into Murtagh’s gray eyes.

“I think in a cave a few miles from here north.” Murtagh said in a questionable look in his eyes.

Eva turned and ran to the open door walked through it and headed north running like a mad woman.

















Chapter Nine
Warning: can get a little too girlish, so if you don’t like romantic scenes, don’t read!


Lilth heard a noise coming from the door that separated her from the outside world. “Ma’mor.” She heard in a voice that sounded like Eva’s.

“Eva, is that you?” Lilth asked in a hushed voice.

“Yes, hold still” Eva said as she walked to Lilth. She repeated the word that she used to unlock the door.


They walked out the door holding each other’s hand and getting a little teary.

With a look at her sister, Eva let go of Lilth’s hand and walked toward Jett. She grabbed his hand and led him towards the little patch of trees.

“Jett, thanks for w-“Eva was cut off from Jett leaning to kiss Eva.

“Come on guys, not in front of the dragons, please!” Eragon said in a pleased voice.

They broke the kiss, and looked at the group smiling.

Does this mean that I will have a brother-in-law? Lilth said as she stopped patting Alex.

Don’t know fate is a mysterious thing. Eva said looking at Jett’s golden eyes.



A few years later, they got married and had a boy. They named him, Kane, after a dead great uncle of Jett’s.

Now the Generation lives on.

The End

Book One: Eva and Lilth Sisters, Chapter One-Three. Written by me (Kayla)

Eva and Lilth: Sisters
By Kayla Deal

Chapter One


In a world like no other live two girls who are sisters: Eva and Lilth.

Eva (15) has fiery red hair that is most likely to be down, gorgeous purple eyes to die for. Lilth (16) has golden hair that is almost as shiny as the sun, it is most likely found in a tight bun, and blue eyes as blue as the ocean.

Our tale begins when Eva and Lilth went to see Leon, the town’s story teller/gossip teller. Since it is rude to go into a person’s tent without permission, they had to wait to enter the tent. (Thank gosh it was morning, because if it wasn’t they would all be dead of a heat stroke.)

Leon finally came after they had been there for 15 minutes.

“Come in and have a seat.” Leon said in his faraway voice like he was having a daydream.

“Leon is there anything going on in the town today?” Eva said before Lilth could beat her to the punch.

“Yes there is something going on today, something really important. Eragon the 2ND is here to present the royal eggs. And it is starting in ten minutes.”

Eva and Lilth jumped up at the same time, thanked Leon and ran to the town square. They got there in time to see the eggs being taken out of there cushioned boxes. There were gasps.

There was a gold one, a green one, and a black egg.

“This is an important day. Hopefully today we will find a new rider or riders. May everyone please form a line to touch the eggs? If it shows the royal symbol please take the egg with the symbol and stand by me.” Eragon said with coolness in his voice.

Everyone did what Eragon said. Eva with a knot in her stomach was the 3RD in line, while Lilth was right behind her.

Eva being so nervous started playing with her sleeve of her dress. But Lilth was cool and relaxed. On the outside, on the inside she was as nervous as Eva, maybe more.

So far no one got the eggs to show the symbol.

When it was Eva’s turn, she touched the gold one, nothing. Then she touched the green one and the royal symbol showed up.

I am a dragon rider. Eva thought with a leap in her heart. Eva picked up the egg and walked over to Eragon.

Everyone clapped for Eva.

Now it is Lilth’s turn she touched the golden egg and stuffed in a gasp when it showed the symbol.

My sister and I are dragon riders. Lilth thought with a grin as she walked to Eragon to join her sister.

Lilth and Eva waited until a black haired man with a dagger on his belt, walked to them with his egg.

“These are our new riders.” Eragon said with a grin. Then everyone clapped as Eragon escorted them to a waiting carriage. Then Eragon climbed onto the back of his dragon, Saphira.

So theses are the new riders? They look like they could be great ones. All of them felt an unfamiliar mind rub against theirs.

“Saphira, it is great to meet you.” Eva said as Lilth and she bowed to Saphira.

It seems like 2/3 of them knows manners. Saphira said in a pleased tone.

Be nice. Eragon said in a playful voice.

“We will meet you in a while. Just go into the carriage and the driver will take you to your living quarters. Oh, and the banquet is at 5 o’clock this evening.” Eragon said in his normal voice.

“5 o’clock. I will be there.” said a stranger’s voice. Eva and Lilth turned to see the black haired man talking.

“ Well it is a long ways there you three might want to get going if you don’t want to be late to your own banquet.” Eragon said as they launched into the sky.

Then they climbed into the carriage. And they headed off to their new life.







Chapter Two

On the way there, Eva asked the stranger what is his name and he replied “Jett.”

“So will your parents be surprised when they found out that their daughters are dragon riders?” Jett asked just to make conversation.

“If they were alive, yes they would. Will yours?” Eva said quickly.

They arrived at their destination in 3 hours. The driver slowed the horses and jumped off to open the door to the carriage.

“Thank you.” Lilth said as they climbed out still clutching their eggs.

They walked into the house where the driver showed them to their room. Eva’s room was right by Lilth’s. Jett’s room is right by Eva’s.

When it was 4:30 they heard Eragon landing, as Eva and Lilth was fixing their hair.

At 4:50 Eragon came to bring them into the banquet room.

When they all were seated Eragon said “Congratulations all three of you for becoming the new dragon riders. Your eggs will hatch tonight so don’t get freaked out when you hear something weird. When your eggs hatch, come outside where I will be waiting to see your new dragons. So I will stop talking and let you eat.”

Eva looked at the table and found only one kind of food: vegetables.

That’s fine with me. Eva said with mental shrug, as she grabbed some cooked carrots and broccoli.

After the banquet, they all went into their rooms to wait for their eggs to hatch.

Eva pasted the time reading a book that she always had on her. It was poems about dragon riders.

Jett was on his one thousandths pace when his egg started to hatch. Jett sat on his bed right beside the egg. When he touched the newly hatched dragon, he felt something like liquid fire going into his arm. When he turned his hand found the gdwey ignia on his palm.

Lilth was crossing stitching when hers started to hatch. She touched the dragon and the same thing happened.

Eva was in the middle of a beautiful poem when her egg started to hatch. Eva was hesitant to touch the dragon, but she did. Her eyes water with the pain of her arm.

The three of them walked into the hallway where they met each other walking down the stairs holding their newly hatched dragons, and walked outside.

“That was earlier than I would have thought, but the dragons look fine. I wanted you three here to pick out names. In order to do that you must go into your dragon’s mind. Just relax and stay relaxed.” Eragon said as he leaned on Saphira’s side.

Eva cleared her mind and went into the mind of her dragon.

Umm…dragon, are you a boy or girl? Eva asked with caution.

Eva got a mental picture of a girl.

So you are a girl, right?

Then Eva got a mental picture of a thumb up.

Eva got out of the mind and said, “Mine is a girl!”

Then Lilth came back and said, “Mine is a boy!”

Jett came back and said, “Mine is a boy!”

They were all smiles.

But now was the naming part.

Eva quickly found a perfect name for her green dragon.

“Her name is Jade.” Eva said with an even bigger smile.

Now it was Lilth’s turn.

“My dragon’s name is Alex.” Lilth said with her father in mind.

“I am naming my dragon, Max.” Jett said with the same coolness in his voice.

“Those are unique names, now for the matter of your things. They will be arriving tomorrow morning. Now get some sleep, you will start your training tomorrow.” Eragon said leaving with Saphira.

The three new riders walked to their rooms and went to bed.




Chapter Three

Lilth woke up to find Alex curled up by her side.

Things changed so quickly, I don’t feel like myself anymore. Lilth thought as she got a dress on that was in her belongs that was brought when she was asleep.

Lilth fixed her hair, and walked to the banquet room to have some breakfast. There was no one there so she grabbed an apple and walked outside with Alex close on her heels.

She found Eragon meditating.

“Early raiser, aren’t we?” Eragon said without opening his eyes.

“Always have and always will.” Lilth said sitting down waiting for her sister and Jett to come.

They came shortly after Lilth.

“Before I can train you, we must go and get your own swords. So follow me.” Eragon said as he opened his eyes got up and walked into the forest.

They walked in the forest for 15 minutes, until they found a thatched roof hut, which has smoke coming out of the chimney.

When they walked in they were immediately measured.

They measured weird things like how far apart was your fingers to your toes, and how far apart was your eyes.

But it paid off, they got beautiful swords, one as gold as real gold, one as green as emeralds, and one that is black as night.

The swords were the perfect height and weight.

Then they walked back to the house’s yard.

“Now I must find your weaknesses in fighting and make them stronger.” Eragon said as he took out his own sword. Everyone knows the name of it. It name is Brisingr. “Jett, you are first.”

Jett was done 50 seconds after they started.

Thank all the gods and goddesses that our father taught us how to fight. Eva thought as she stepped in front of Eragon.

They wanted for the other to attack. It didn’t happen until Eragon tried to give a blow to the head until Eva blocked it.

Bloody hell, he’s fast! One side of her thought.
Well, no da! Do you think he just killed old Galby just by luck, you stupid girl? The other side said with sarcasm.

Eva almost got hit in the knee by Brisingr for not paying attention, until she jumped at the last minute and hit Eragon in the arm. She heard a crack as she broke her wrist.

She should have screamed in pain. But she just switched the sword to her left hand.

“That is enough for you. Give me your wrist.” Eragon said as he held out his hand that didn’t have the gdwey ignia on his palm.

Eva gently put her wrist on Eragon’s hand. Eragon tenderly put his other hand on her wrist. Eva felt a lightning bolt of pain as he murmured something she had never heard of before. Light came from his gdwey ignia. Then the pain was gone.

“Don’t do anything that can hurt your wrist for the rest of the day. All of you get some rest and see you for dinner.” Eragon said as he gave Eva back her arm. And Eragon walked away.

“How did you hold him off for so long?” Jett asked.

“I don’t know. Just luck I guess.” Eva replied as she walked into her room and closed the door on Jett.

She lay down on her bed and recounted the last few hours.

Jade jumped up on the bed and started nudging Eva’s arm with her head.

“You must be hungry. Stay here.” Eva said as she walked out of her room and went into the woods to find something for Jade to eat. Eva found a rabbit and killed it. She brought it out of the woods put it down on the ground and found Jade gliding out of the open window. She landed elegantly right by the rabbit.

Jade hit a growth spurt only last night. It seemed that her brain had one too because of just getting only pictures from Jade’s mind she got some words too.

Eva waited until Jade was done eating that she walked back into the house. Jade following Eva of course.

Hi
