More character development and plains for the immediate future please read and review I would like feedback good or bad just try to tell me in more than one word please and thank you o.0

The Gedway Ignasia was beautiful Hinata thought as she looked at the palm of her hand. Although she had never thought of that particular phrase it felt right like there could be no other name for the mark. Has she stared at her hand in wonder the Hatchling turned and jumped off of Karuma's head and flew high into the sky. As the clouds enveloped it they lit up like a prism. Swaths of rainbow colored lights shot in all directions across the sky above them. The dragon the exited the cloud bank was not the hatchling that flew into it. The dragon was now as large as the other two that had brought it to them.

As Hinata watched in awe at the sight before her, Karuma lowered her head to the ground so Naruto and Hinata could speak with Eragon and so she could shift once again. Hinata hit the ground running her Byakugan had been active since her transformation that Karuma performed but she had yet to feel any strain on her chakra reserves.

'That's odd'

'Hello Hinata My name is Boufuu and you are my Rider there is danger coming and we must train if we are to see what we must do to save this land. I know who you are and I know that we are a lynchpin in the creation of peace or the complete destruction of every living being threw out Alagaesia. Will you fight for us will you fight with me?'

"Naruto, we should go with them we are not in Hi no Kuni anymore from what Boufuu told me we are of crucial importance in saving many people in this land."

"Who is Boufuu? What do you think Karuma? You saw what the battlefield was like when we left everyone we knew is dead what is there to return to. If we can save only one life here we will stay and do everything in our power to do it."

"Boufuu is my dragon and I am his Rider, he tells me that although he is too young to ride now he will grow much faster than the wild dragons and should be half of Saphira's and Karuma's size by the end of the year."

Eragon watched in wonder as the all white dragon emerged from the clouds. He was beautiful he thought to Saphira "that he is Eragon" as soon as she finished they were both flood with images of a massive thousand foot silver dragon mating with an equally as large black dragon a nest with one white egg, a wasteland of hellfire and rock the earth scorched black. A woman with glowing red eyes and midnight black hair riding an all white Dragon. A blonde haired man with blue eyes standing on the head riding the same nine tailed fox that had batted him and Saphira out of the air like a fly. He was there with Saphira Murtagh and Thorn as well as Arya and Firnen were also there across form them all stood five beings surrounded in shadows. Eragon noticed that what had thought was a hill that they were standing on was actually a pile of bodies, Elves, Dwarves, Urgals, and Kull, Humans and Were cats, Wild Dragons and animals all piled into a massive pile there corpses rotting. There were no birds or scavengers for they were part of the pile. Valdr cut the vision off abruptly and left Eragon's and Saphira's minds.

Eragon shook his head clearing himself of the lingering feelings that came with the images. When he opened his eyes he was shocked at the three before him. The fox was gone and where she had been, a woman stood surrounded by a massive blood pool. She looked like one of the more animalistic elves he had meet in Ellesmira yet he knew she was not an Elf. 'She must be a creature of magic like the Dragons or the were cats.' He thought to Saphira but was disappointed with the grunt that he got in return.

'Saphira can you carry them all to Hvitr Fell? We must contact the others and see what is happening in Alagaesia.' Can you tell them or the white dragon so that we can get home? That vision has put me on edge.' Eragon stated hoping that what was keeping her silent didn't keep her from seeing the need to contact Nasuada, Arya, Orik, and Murtagh.

'Of course, but let me focus this women is extraordinary she is speaking to me very fast and very well recapping this boys life from birth and her experiences which as far as I can tell go back a few thousand years. They can do things that even the use of magic would be impossible. This man in front of you can level multiple mountains before tiring Eragon; she can shift in a blink of an eye and doesn't tire as far as I can tell. She is a being of pure energy made physical Eragon!' Saphira exclaimed excitedly. 'Let me hear the rest then we will speak more.' And she cut her mind from his as she lowered to the ground.

Karuma looked to Naruto and Hinata then in a single jump landed next to Eragon. Fallowed shortly by Hinata and Naruto

"Eragon, Saphira has told me much about what the two of you have done. I am Karuma the Kyuubi no Kitsune a pleasure to meet you king killer. I was able to see the visions that were sent to you and Saphira. My mate, Hinata and I will join you and help wherever we can. Once we reach solid ground Naruto and I will need a large open space so that I can teach him to speak your language as soon as possible." Karuma said after she had sat down with her legs crossed next to Eragon.

"You might want them to hold on it will be rough and they don't have hand holds were they are seated and Saphira is too large to wrap there legs around."

"Saphira said that you could delve into the minds of any thing around you. I will allow you this once to enter my mind and not become lost. I will show you everything so that you can understand and help us as much as we help you." She said as she closed her eyes and bridged her hands under her chin.

Eragon looked to Saphira as to get her opinion only to have her nod her head and say "She is still showing me things."

"Should I wait until you are done talking to Saphira before I start? So that you can focus more on what you want me to see."

Karuma opened her eyes slowly and looked at him; it was not a pleasant look. I am talking and translating to everyone present here including the two wild dragons that brought Boufuu to us. Do not worry about going mad I will keep you from harm.

Eragon watched in awe as the years flashed by before his eyes. The amount of detail in the memories was astounding nothing fluctuated nothing was fuzzy it was as if the flowing images were a constant stream of perfect fairths one after another. The focus required to produce such a sequence was immense let alone to be able to do it and converse with six other beings at the same time gave him a great respect for Karuma. It was obvious the she was a not a being that could be defeated easily, he wondered what could possibly stand as a threat against them all.

They were a few hours away from White Mountain the heard Hinata murmur skulblakas ven and gasp.

What is it Hinata what's wrong? Naruto asked concern evident in his tone of voice.

"Amazing." Hinata whispered as soon as the words left here mouth Boufuu fell from the sky. Her concentration on the spell failing it canceled out and returned her sight back to her regular Byakugan. With the spell ended Boufuu was able to right himself with a few powerful strokes of his wings.

'Please don't connect our eyes again until we have trained using our abilities together more. I'm sure that to see with your eyes again will be amazing little one but in the air and with no practice it is disorienting to be able to see everywhere at once.' Boufuu thought as he flew up next to Saphira.

Giving Boufuu a sidelong glace Eragon debated if he should ask what had happened. The first time he had done that spell the effect Saphira had not been nearly as drastic as Boufuu's had been.

'Boufuu what happened when your eyes were connected? You should not have fallen from the air like that.'

'I do not know how it is possible Eragon Elda, but my Rider is able to see everywhere at once and telescopically zoom for miles and see threw solid objects. We were able to see White Mountain when we connected our vision.'

'But we are still an hour's flight from home?'

'I didn't know what was up or down in that split second and it made me panic, we will practice more once we are on the ground.' Boufuu said before cutting off there connection.

Using the Eldunari's power Eragon was able transfer enough energy to Boufuu allowing him to keep up the last remaining ours of the trip. Eragon was amazed at the dragons' endurance to be so young and to fly this fast for this long it was amazing. The women he realized had gone to sleep leaning against the blond haired man who remained awake. As there eyes crossed Eragon shuddered at the pain displayed. The man looked to be seventeen but his eyes made him look older. It was the jaded look of an old war hero who had been glancing over his shoulder for too long. Eragon stared back unflinchingly and held his gaze.

"We will train together and would appreciate any help you could give us about what it is to be a rider. Hinata knows that having power means that she will also have great responsibility to use that power to help and protect the people who don't have the power to stand up for themselves. I also believe in protecting the people closest to my heart. Even though they don't really need my protecting anymore." as he said this his head cocked to the side as if he was listening to something then looked back at Eragon. "From what Karuma has told me you fight for a worthy and honorable cause and we offer any help we can provide as I'm sure Hinata will as well. We may not be Riders but we can hold our own, and just so you know we will not swear fealty to anyone we don't find worthy."

"I am my own ruler Naruto as I expect you are as well just so you know that if I or any other ruler in this land finds your actions to be threatening to the peace we have fought for Saphira and I can kill you by speaking only one word. You have no wards to protect you from my magic and have many years worth of wards to protect me from you. Karuma slammed us hundreds of feet threw they air yet we had not a scratch. 'Just remember Naruto I fight for peace and the good of the people I will kill you if I have to' Eragon said to Naruto in his mind sending chills down the blond mans back.

Naruto scratched the back of his head with a stupid grin on his face "sorry about that I just had to make sure we are on the right side of the fight." Naruto said as he once again slumped into his depressed slouch.

"I'm sorry for your loss Naruto; Saphira told me that you lost many people to war. Alagaesia is at peace for now and you will get to see some of the most beautiful places in Alagaesia when we go to the capital to meet Nasuada, Hopefully the other Kings and Queens will meet us there. When we get to White Mountain I have to contact some people a friend of mine will show you to a room were you may sleep. I will come get you for morning meal and we will discuss plains for how we will make the trip. We will probably leave the day after next because it is a long trip and will take about a month we will begin Hinata's training then I will allow you and Karuma Elda to partake in the training as well to the best of your abilities. We can start now" Eragon reached into his pocket and picked out a smooth polished stone he had made from mud. Tossing it to Naruto he said "magic is something you have or you don't if you have it you can grow it, if you don't have it you never will unless you also become a Rider. Now focus on the stone and say Flauga if it floats or twitches, I can teach you how to work magic."

Naruto looked down at the stone in his hand in wonder. He held his chakra back and focused on the stone. "Flauga."
