K,
sorry guys, I didn't get much time on because we had a lot of
homework
after x-mas break and you know the rest. And good news- I
finished Eragon!
Also, to the guy (I forget your name) who said about the historical
incorrections, like the honey, lets pretend that I said tree sap from
a nearby pine tree, as for the coyote and wolf, this is a world with
dragons, magic, and other fantasy creatures, so its fine, but ty
anyway, And thank you to my beta
reader,
animedragon59.
Chapter 2
Later that day, at dinner, Roran was devouring my whole turkey in an
attempt to prove that it will last only one meal.
"Why didn't you shoot anything else besides this bird? Because
I'm positive that you saw
at least SOMETHING else on your way
back." Garrow asked.
"Well you see, I found this weird stone on my way back
to
Carvahall," I said producing the stone.
"Let me see that," said Roran.
"Sure," He reached out and took the stone. We all examined what I
believed to be a stone in turn.
"Interesting," said Garrow
"When the traders come to Carvahall, we'll
see if we can sell
it and buy some food."

That night, I woke up to a strange rattling noise by my rucksack. I
went
over and saw that the stone was shaking, very much like a
chicken egg about to hatch. That's when it dawned on me that it
wasn't a stone, but
some strange egg. I grabbed the egg and felt
it pulsing with life. So I wrapped it in my deerskin blanket but that
did not do much. Then
before I had the chance to grab it, it
rolled and landed unharmed on the floor.
Out of
nowhere, the egg exploded! I looked in amazement at the creature that
it housed. It
was like a large, reddish-gray lizard. When it
unfolded its wings I realized what it was. There was only one word I
could say. I stuttered in shock as I looked at it,
"…dragon."

The next morning, we had bread and rainwater for breakfast. Valencia
said something, however, that made me stop cold.
"Eragon, did
something happen with the stone last night? I heard something
crack."
"Actually, yes, something did happen, I heard the
cracking too, but when I
checked the bag, the stone was gone." I
replied shrugging my shoulders.
"Strange," said Garrow
dismissively.
"Yeah, I know," I said remembering that I still
had to clean up the pieces of the egg and
find shelter for my
dragon.
There
you go, sorry that its not too much longer then last time, but
I
don't want to make a novel with a chapter.
