Chapter 1
The Stone
Faster, Saphira! Faster! screamed Eragon.
Eragon and Saphira were trying to fly across the plains that stretched from Uru'baen south to Cithri. Arya and Roran were sitting behind him, Arya holding the green egg and Roran keeping behind her. Galbatorix had probably noticed the green egg's absence overnight and was sending legions of soldiers after him, maybe even himself and Shruikan.
The beginning of dawn started to creep towards the east. Everyone was already tired from the adventure that took place that night: Eragon, Saphira, and Roran attacking the guards, and Arya stealing the green egg in the king's treasury. Trianna and Nasuada were waiting for them in Cithri with the egg.
I'm going as fast as I can, Eragon, replied Saphira. If I go any faster, I'll lose my energy, and Galbatorix's troops will catch up to us.
"Eragon, this is bad," said Roran. "Saphira isn't getting any faster."
"She says that she's going as fast as she can. Tell me if you see Cithri."
"I have an idea," Arya put in unexpectedly. "Why don't you transport the egg to Nasuada. That way, even if Galbatorix's troops are going to catch up, the egg will be out of their grasp."
"That's it!" exclaimed Eragon. "Arya, give me the green egg."
She handed it to him. He held it over his head, muttering the incantation. For a moment, a ray of blue light illuminated his face; then the egg was gone.

When they reached the Surdan border, Trianna, Nasuada, and a lot of soldiers were waiting for them at a large pavilion.
"Where's the egg?" Nasuada asked as soon as Eragon dismounted Saphira.
"I sent it to you, Milady," he replied in a confused tone. "Why?"
"Well, I don't have it," Trianna blurted out.
"Eragon, did you picture the area in your mind?" Arya asked
He stayed silent. A lump had formed in his throat.
"Well, did you?" Her voice rose. Nasuada put her hands over her mouth.
"No," he croaked.
Trianna gasped. WHAT?!?! Saphira's yell nearly knocked him over. What do you mean you didn't picture the area in your mind?
"Well, where's the egg?" Nasuada demanded.
"I-I don't know."
"It could be anywhere, Eragon. Anywhere!" yelled Roran. "Apparently, your training didn't focus on your IQ."
But the real question is: where? said Saphira.
Sokka stared at the smoldered area of pine trees. Just a few seconds ago this area was normal until a giant flash of blue light exploded out of nowhere and burned all of the tree of their leaves. In the middle of the small clearing was a large smooth green stone.
He cautiously went over to the stone and poked it with his boomerang. He jumped back but nothing happened, so he warily picked it up and began to examine it. The stone was about a foot long and white webs were on it. It looked very hard and it was the smoothest rock he'd ever seen. He tapped it with his finger and a ringing note filled the air. Was it hollow? I wonder if I can sell it for a couple of copper pieces. We're running low on them anyway. Shrugging, he tucked the stone under his arm and walked back to camp.
At camp, the Angry Jerk was building a fire since it was already dark; Aang was eating some nuts on a rock; Iroh was...filling a tea pot with tea to eat over the fire; Toph was, besides making an earth tent for herself, doing nothing in her tent; and Katara was gathering water for them. The Angry Jerk and Iroh had moved in with them since Zuko had rebelled against his sister and released Iroh. Then they moved in with them, with Iroh and Zuko teaching Aang Firebending. Still, Sokka didn't trust the Angry Jerk...or Katara's constant following him around.
Aang jumped up from where he was eating his nuts. "Sokka, what'd you got there?" he asked.
"Some stone I found," Sokka replied, showing it to him.
Aang smiled and looked fondly at the stone. "What are you going to do with it?"
"Sell it," Sokka said.
"That stone's too pretty to be sold." Katara had looked up from where she was storing the water.
"But we need the money," Sokka insisted. "And I think it could be sold for a good price."
Iroh placed the tea kettle over blaze.
"Tea'll be ready in a little while," he said, Zuko and him going over to Sokka. "That is a handsome stone you have there, Sokka."
"Great, you picked up a rock for us, peas--Sokka." Zuko had changed words at Iroh's scowl.
"What's all this about a stupid rock?" Toph had lowered a wall from her tent of stone.
"I like this stone, and you shouldn't sell it, Sokka," Aang said.
"What do you mean?" Toph asked brusquely. "Our money's down to zero, and we need it." She raised up her wall and didn't say another word after that.
"Where'd you find it?" Katara asked.
"It just exploded!" Sokka exclaimed.
Her sister raised an eyebrow and Aang broke out in laughter. "Are you sure you haven't been hitting the cactus juice?"
"What? It really happened!" Sokka countered.
"Yeah, like that'll ever happen."
"Tea's done!" Iroh exclaimed. He took out some cups and poured some hot tea in them. After they drank their tea, they spread their bedrolls around the fire and slept.

Squeak!
Sokka shot up. Goosebumps formed on his arm. He was the only one awake; everyone else was still asleep, undisturbed by the noise. He checked his bags and sleeping bag if an elephant rat was inside. All that he found was the stone with a giant crack in the center. Great. Now I can't sell this thing! In disgust, he took out the stone and raised it over his head, ready to throw it into the woods where it came from...
He yelled, dropping it besides him. The stone had started to shake violently, like it was being controlled by some kind of demon. His scream had woken up everyone: Toph exploded her tent, Aang screamed and rolled off of Appa, Zuko jumped up in a fighting stance, and Iroh sat up and rubbed his eyes, murmuring something about tea.
The stone was still shaking, but now it was starting to squeak monotonously. Aang was hovering over the stone thing and went to poke it.
"Aang, don't touch it," warned Katara, holding his arm back. "We don't know what it is."
"I wonder if it holds a duck," said Iroh. "Preferably, a roast one."
Zuko rolled his eyes. "Uncle, duck eggs aren't green!"
"Agni can make anything possible."
"That's it!" exclaimed Sokka in rage. He pulled out his machete. "Whatever comes out of that thing, I'll kill it!"
The stone cracked even more until a little piece of it wobbled off. Nothing happened for a moment, then, without warning, it just exploded, shattering hundreds of little pieces everywhere. There, testing its wings, was a little green dragon.
Chapter 1 done! Oh, remember this story is told by SOKKA'S point of view, so he calls Zuko the Angry Jerk! And that little dragon is so--Stops for a moment-- Oh no! I have to pee, then curse Sokka for giving me to much eggnog! Hey, Sokka, get over here!
