Saphira In Love

Me: "I do not own Eragon." Runs behind a corner while Saphira walks in.

Saphira: In a singsong voice. Oh, Codie! Where are you, my darling mate! I have some wondeful news!

Me: Looks around and spots Eragon sitting with his arm around Arya's shoulder then grabs them both and pulls them into the corner with me. "Help. Me! If you don't I'll post another fic about what happened between the two of you after you, Eragon, confessed your affection for Arya and before she totally shot you down or as the readers of the books think happened! I swear I'll tell them what really happened if you don't help me!"

Eragon & Aryra: Gasp!

Eragon: Y-you wouldn't! How dare you hold that against us as blackmail!? We were both drunk from a feast that wasn't mentioned in the book! You can't...." Is cut off by Arya slapping her left hand over his mouth.

Arya: "Hold your tongue Shadeslayer! Any more of that subject being mentioned and Codie would be getting requests to write such a story! And you know he'd do it too! Besides, I am unaffected by it at all, so his threat is an empty one in my eyes." Glares at me.

Me: Smirks at Arya evilly then takes a deep breath. "Eragon and Arya sitting in a tree. M-A-K-I-N-G-O-U-T! First came love, then came passion, next thing you know Ayra's swelling!" Laughs as I roll around on the ground while clutching my sides.

Taratulas: Catches on to the joke and then begins to cackle evilly.

Eragon & Arya: Sweat drop and their faces flush in embarrasment. "Okay! We'll help!"

While Codie, Saphira, and Thorn were having their arguments Eragon was in his room worrying about his upcoming duty as Arya's escourt to one of the elves most important events....The Summers Eve Ball.

"This is both wonderful....and horrible. On the one hand I am able to be with Arya as her escourt. On the other it's only because no one else bothered to ask her and I feel as if I was her last resort. Oh, how do I get myself into these messes, and if Saphira knew of this she'd never let me hear the end of it." muttered Eragon as he searched for the best outfit for his escourt duties that very evening.

Perhaps you should be more concerned about what I have in store for Saphira night after next Shadeslayer. I don't intend to lose her as easily as I did the last time. came the voice of Codie as the black scaled Dragon landed behind Eragon so silently that, when he spoke, Eragon jumped nearly two feet into the air from the startle.

"Codie, please, I've asked you before not to sneak up on me like that. And what exactly are you planning on doing with Saphira night after next? I hope it's not something that will get her or anyone else killed." said Eragon once he calmed his furiously beating heart and turned to face Codie.

Oh I don't plan on doing much Shadeslayer. I only intend to take Brightscales as my mate. You know how she and I were when the both of us were younger. How we would mock fight and other such things? Well, I just consider all the times we mock mated as practice for later on in life, and I'm very happy with the fact that Saphira has agreed to be my mate. said Codie as he smiled slightly.

When Eragon heard this he stared at Codie in shock and only returned to his senses when he heard the door open and he saw Arya walk into the room and over to Codie.

"You would do well to remember, Codie, that Saphira's heart is a delicate thing. To shatter it would bring great suffering to both her and the rest of this land. Do not forget that she is the only hatched female of your race that is within breeding age at this time. Now, give me your word that you will always look out for her once she becomes your mate and will always aid her when she has need of you even if she stubbornly refuses it." said Arya as she gently ran her hands over the black scales on Codie's neck.

I give you my word....Rider. But do not forget that what I spoke to you about when we became joined was told to you in confidence and you would do well to continue to keepp it to yourself until I feel that you may reveal it unless I choose to reveal it myself. said Codie as he then spread his wings and turned his back to his Rider and Eragon as he began to leave. By the way, Shadeslayer, my Rider plans on wearing the dress she wore when she found you after you foolishly decided to stay in the Empire after rescuing your cousin's father-in-law. I suggest that you wear the garments you wore to the feast back before yuo defeated Durza. I've never seen Arya look at you with such admeration, shall we say, as she did when you wore that outfit. Wear it again and you may just end up becoming my Rider's mate. And I would enjoy that because then Saphira and I would never be seperated due to your embarrasment of you two Riders being near each other. Codie added as he then took off into the air and flew off to rejoin Saphira and watch the sunset with her.

Me: "I know it's short but I'm running out of time on the library computer so I've got t make this quick. Read and Review and if you guys, and gals, want me to write a fic about the blackmail I was doing to Eragon and Arya at the begining of this chapter let me know in a review. Later!"
