A/N: This is co-written with my lovely friend Evanescence2189. Tis a parody or the horrible beasties we know as mary-sues. My apologies to anyone with the actual pen name "Inherigirl".
This is the same Format as Crazyroninchick's, Never Leave Fanfiction Lying Around, and is used with her permission.
Basic premise is; Murtagh changed his true name mid-battle, and did a few heroic things in an unimportant deus ex machina. However, Nasuada needs to come up with a penalty for him. Then, Elva finds The Book.
The Marvelous Adventures of a Mary-Sue: Inheritance Cycle~
Prologue: Murtagh's Doom
"You have put me in a very difficult place," Nasuada said. Murtagh glared back at the rebel leader.
"I am so very sorry I didn't have Thorn incinerate your camp and allow Galbatorix to conquer you. Allow me to go jump off a cliff."
"You are being impossible. I don't wish to kill you, but after what you've done—"
"Lady Nasuada!" Elva dashed into the tent, fear evident in her freaky-purple eyes.
"What is it, Elva?" Nasuada was only mildly surprised. The witch-child wasn't often scared, or if she was, she refused to show it.
"Look." Elva held out a book. The leather that bound the book was bright green, and had the image of a beautiful girl on the front. The title was hard to decipher due to the fancy script, but Nasuada could just barely make it out: "The Emerald Rider, By Inherigirl101."
"I opened it!" Elva said. "And it's…it's horrible!"
"It's just a book," replied Nasuada.
"Read it." Elva challenged, again offering the book. Nasuada flipped the book open and began reading.
"Princess Emerald Eva Marianna Susana ran into the forest, her long, raven-colored hair fanned out behind her. Her brilliant green eyes searched the underbrush for animals. She was petite and slim, but with an hourglass figure. She resembled an elf so much some people thought perhaps she had elven relation, but she knew none of her family on her mother's side.
Emerald wore green leggings and a tunic of a darker shade of green. They fit her form perfectly, gracing her curves and showing off her athletic figure. The young woman was beautiful beyond comparison, but found the stares people gave her disconcerting. They were just jealous of her flawless body that they could only wish to have.
She sighed in contentment. The lush green woods always calmed her, and it was wonderful to visit her dragon, Sarra. No one knew about Sarra but her. Emerald had a package from her mother as long as she could remember. On it had been a note to not open it until she was 12. When she did, it was a green dragon egg that had hatched for her. She had concealed it from her father all these years, until now when she was 16.
Today, her father was in one of his rages, and she preferred to be far away. This was because her father was none other than King Galbatorix. She reached the woods and leaned back against a tree. Suddenly, a rustle made her jump. She drew her sword immediately, almost grazing the face of the intruder. Who, as it seemed, was Murtagh, Galbatorix's dragon rider.
Nasuada looked up. "Did this ever happen?"
"No. And Galbatorix doesn't have a daughter! That's one of the more implausible things I've ever heard in my life!" exclaimed Murtagh.
"It gets worse," said Elva gravely.
"How much have you read?" asked Nasuada with a delicate raise of an eyebrow.
"Quite a bit, actually. It sucks you in, and then you can't stop! It must be dark magic."
"Then let's dispose of it," Murtagh suggested darkly. He wasn't exactly certain why he was so afraid of the book, but it struck terror deep within his heart. Perhaps it was innate survival instinct.
Nasuada appeared to be skimming the book. She looked up again.
"Oh no. No, I think this book is the perfect way out of our difficulties." She then turned to Elva.
"Please get Eragon, Saphira, Arya, and Angela. We need witnesses."
This is really more a prologue than the first chapter, which I why it is so short. It will get longer. Hope you enjoyed, feedback please!
