When Nightmares Become More!
Chapter 1: Sapphire and Crimson
Saphira and Shruiken were squaring up each other, baring their teeth, and growling with such ferocity that nobody but their riders were brave enough to come within a hundred feet of where the four were standing. Saphira was shouting inside the jet black dragon's mind. Her words were so hurtful and explicit that both Eragon and Galbatorix blocked their minds from the sapphire dragoness.
After Saphira was done, she merely stared at Shruiken with hatred in her sapphire blue eyes. This made Shruiken chuckle in spite of himself. You know you are so cute when you're angry.
SHUT UP!! Eragon and Saphira said unanimously. Causing both of them to experience a split second of embarrassment before turning back to hatred against the so-called king of Alagaesia, but while he and Saphira were occupied the king and his dragon managed to get away
Stay on your guard, Saphira…Saphira...Saphi- Eragon gasped when he looked down and saw what had happened to his dragon. Her eyes were wide and her breathing was almost non-existent. He tried to move but something pushed him down, impaling him on one of Saphira's spikes. He tried to dislodge it from his innards but another unseen force snapped the spike causing Eragon to fall to the ground. The impact knocked the wind out of him and jammed the spike deep within his chest. He turned toward Saphira as Shruiken and Galbatorix materialized in front of him. Shruiken was gripping Saphira's throat with his claws. It took all that Eragon had not to pass out due to blood loss.
"Now you see that there is nothing you can do to stop us." Galbatorix pushed forth a blood-curdling laugh as he beckoned Shruiken to gain altitude. Shruiken then pumped his wings and rose into the air; crushing the life out of Saphira. Eragon's vision went black as he fell unconscious.
As Eragon came to, he saw Saphira being tossed to the ground in one mighty heap. Eragon's legs were broken as he heard Galbatorix mutter a spell under his breath. Eragon could only watch as Shruiken landed near his dragon's broken body. She had a large gash on her underbelly and, blood was gushing out of her back where her spikes used to be. The fall she took broke both of her wings and ripped them to shreds .her hind legs were jutting out at odd angles.
Shruiken pinned Saphira down as his master strode over to him with a bloody spear he had obtained from an incapacitated soldier.
Saphira! He yelled in her mind, get away from h-
"Silence," Galbatorix yelled as Eragon's arm shattered and he fell to the ground yelling in agony. Saphira felt it and her eyes reflected the only thing she had left, pain.
"You and your rider have plagued me for far to long," Galbatorix said aloud so Eragon could hear the evil in his cold, raspy voice, "but I do not believe he will bother us anymore once I destroy his precious DRAGON!!!" he lifted the spear into the air and drove it into Saphira's throat.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO" Eragon yelled as blood started pouring out of Saphira's wound. As Galbatorix raced off with Shruiken, Eragon crawled over to his dying dragon. Her scales were no longer blue, but were covered in hot, crimson, blood. He held her head in his arms tears streaming down his face.
Please Saphira y-you c-can't leave m-me Eragon stammered I need you. He stared into her sapphire blue eyes, crying.
E-Eragon, There was great strain in her thoughts I-I'm s-sorry. Her eyes closed as Eragon felt her pass into the void
