The Next Generation

Chapter One:
Warped

The last thing that Jaide can remember from her world is being home alone, chatting on the computer with her friend. "Im going to go bike riding and take Cin, (her dog, short for Cinnamon) ttyl, k?"

"Okay. ttyl, bye!"

"Bye"

Jaide exited the conversation window and put her black and blue jacket on.

"Hey Cin, wanna go for a walk?" She asked her dog in her high-pitched voice.

Cin jumped up and whined and ran to her leash.

"Okay, okay lets go!"

Jaide went out to the garage and got her bike out. After putting Cin on the leash and making sure the house was locked up, they started out for the large field out by Jaide's house. Jaide was a 15 year old girl, with startling electric green eyes, thick, reddish-brown hair, and loved animals. She loved the feel of wind in her hair; it made her feel free. All her life she wished she could fly. (who doesn't want to be able to fly?)

After awhile, the clouds started to gather and were looking dark and ominous.
The wind picked up speed and it was hard to continue on her bike.

"Cin, I think we had better head for home," Said Jaide.

As they were going full speed, it started to rain and hail at the same time.
"This is wierd -ow- that its rain-ouch-ing and hailing at the same -ooh- time"
Said Jaide as the hail pelted her face and arms.

Then, suddenly everything stopped. She looked down at her dog, she was frozen in mid-run, her bike stopped, the wind stopped, the rain and hail stopped, everything just stopped. She looked up and saw a lightning bolt directly above her head that seemed to be coming from a cloud that looked like a black dragon.

"Oh my gosh..." Said Jaide, stunned.

Then, as soon as everything had stopped, it started again. In a rush and a flurry, the wind, rain and hail picked up, the dog started running, and the lightning bolt hit Jaide's bike. She lost balance as it electrocuted her, Cin jerked away and ran for home, and Jaide fell unconcios.

Everyting went BLACK.

Then, Jaide started to see some blues, and greens. As she opened her eyes,
she gasped. There were green clouds forming a tornado right above her. She tried to move but she couldn't; she was still too stunned from the electricity of the lightning. As she watched in growing horror, the tornado took shape and it started swirling to the ground in such an un-natural way, it looked like magic. The tornado hit the ground right on top of Jaide and she screamed. It lifted her up, into the funnel, and, flinging her around and around, lifted her into the sky like a Vortex. All the rest is a blur to her, and she blacked out again after a rock that had been picked up from the wind hit her in the head. As soon as the tornado had Jaide, it lifted from the ground, went into the sky and dissapeared. It was so quick that no one even noticed. Except Cin. Who was now shaking like a leaf at the front door, whimpering at what she had just been through.

--Later--

Jaide found herself in a dim room, with light coming from the cracks in the bricks.
There was some straw pieces scattered about, and there was a door, a thick wood door on one wall, that had a small window opening with bars on it, and twords the bottom it had a large slit, for sliding in food trays. "Am I in prison...?" she said aloud. She was sore from the lightning and then the swirling and swirling, then the rock hitting her head. I should get checked for a concussion, She thought to herself.
Just then the door that had the opening with bars swung open, and in walked a tall, evil-looking man with a heavy cloak on. He was bald, and had slightly pointed teeth. Then another just like him walked in after the first. They were twins and both as ugly and evil as the tornado that had swallowed her up.

"Hello, young girl." Said the first twin. His voice made Jaide shudder. "That was quite a nasty bump you had on your head." Chimed in the second.

"...Um, w-where am I...?" Asked Jaide still bewildered.

"Why, my child, you are in the Castle of Galbatorix in Uru'Baen," Said the first twin.

"Who the heck is Galbatorix, and where the heck is Uru'Baen?...Is that in Canada?"

Both twins looked as bewieldered as ever. "Cananda? My child, you are in Alagaesia."

"Alagaesia?"

"Yes,"

"What is Alagaesia?"

The twins laughed, then the second one said, "You are IN Alagaesia...Where did you come from?"

"Umm...Utah..." Said Jaide, still unable to think clearly. There was a bitter taste in her mouth, and a pit in her stomach telling her that she was in alot of trouble...

"Hmm, well who are you?" Said the first Twin.

"Jaide...I think..."

"What are your abilities?"

"What do you mean 'abilities'?"

"I mean, child, what is your power level? You warped here right in front of the king, so you must know SOME tricks. Also we will know your knowledge of the ancient language, so that we know what kind of threat you are to us."

"I don't know, Im not very strong, if thats what you mean, and I don't know what type of ancient language you are talking about, I just know some spanish my friend taught me."

"So, you did not transport yourself here?"

"No! This huge vortex/tornado thingy came and lifted me off the ground! I didn't WANT to come here, I don't even know where here IS! All I know is that I somehow got here, and I want to go home NOW!" Jaide nearly screamed the last part. She was getting frustrated that these two...people, if thats what they were, were questioning her on something she didn't even know. Not to mention she was sore,
and she gets cranky when she is tired, sore, and being interrogated."

"I see," said the two in unison. "Well, what ever the case, the king will want to see you, and question you further on who you are and where you came from, also,
how you even got here."

"King...Galba..torr..is?"

"GALBATORIX!"

"Oh, close enough."

And with that, they snapped their fingers and in came a servant girl, who looked about Jaide's age, and she lead her out of the room, and to a bath, and helped her get cleaned up, and into a new outfit.

"You must look good for the king," said the girl.

"What is your name?" Asked Jaide.

"Brenda, what is yours?"

"My name is Jaide,"

"Thats a pretty name. How did you get here anyway?"

"I...well acctually I don't know..."

"Oh, thats too bad.."

Brenda finished doing Jaides hair and then said, "Alright I'm done, you are ready to eat with King Galbatorix"
Brenda started leading Jaide out of the room they were in, when Jaide asked, "Is this Galbatorix a good king?"

Brenda stopped, looked around to make sure no one was listening, and leaned close to Jaide, whispering, "He is the most evil person anyone could ever know.
those two who were questioning you earlier, they are the Twins. They are his spys and his pawns. If you aren't carefull, they will destroy you. Be carefull, Jaide,
Galbatorix makes his words sound smooth and calm, and he can make you believe anything. But he is anything but calm. There is a war going on between him and the Elves and the Varden, because there is a new Rider, who"
"Rider of what? Elves are real? Who are the Varden?" Interrupted Jaide.
"The Varden are a good group of people who oppose Galbatorix, yes the Elves are real though not many believe it. And a new DRAGON Rider...you ARE from very far away aren't you?"

Jaide almost fell over when she heard Dragon Rider. She had always dreamed of Dragons and if they were intellegent, or just like other wild animals. But she preferred to think they might be very intellegent and wise.

"Y-yes I am from an extremly far away place, apparently..."

"I thought so. Now to continue with what I was saying...there is a new Dragon Rider who is supposed to be going to the Varden with a man, who slayed the legendary Morzan, who betrayed the Dragon Riders to Galbatorix..."

And so Brenda went on to tell the tale of the Riders and their downfall, and how no one had any hope that Galbatorix would ever be defeated, untill this new rider came along, and how the evil king still has 2 dragon eggs left, and also that he will want to know how Jaide got there because it seemed a powerfull force that brought her there.

"I see. So this new Rider, he brings hope that the evil king Galbatorix will finally fall?" Asked Jaide after the whole story.

"Yes, and we are all very excited about the hope of being able to be free, finally."

"And you know this...how?"

Brenda smiled. "My grandmother has told me much. She is quite old."

"Ahh, Grandmothers are good for story-telling aren't they?"

"Yes. Now we must go before the King becomes impatient."

As they were walking down halls and up stairs, Jaide started thinking of how she got there. She didn't believe in magic but thought of some of the Sci-Fi shows she watches. She also started thinking of how she could get home. Her parents were probly worried sick about her being gone.
They went around a corner and were suddenly in front of large doors opening into a grand banquet hall. There were only 2 place-settings, but a lot of food. At the head of the table, sat the King.

Evil King Galbatorix...thought Jaide.

"Please, come in," He said.

His words sounded smooth and calm, just as Brenda said. But there was evil in his eyes...
