Chapter 7:Gathering of evil
Galbatorix sat on his dark throne, contemplating what he should do when he finds that traitor Murtagh, maybe rip out his eyes and fed them to his dragon. Maybe throw him as far as he could and watch Thorn try and catch his rider. Maybe bury him from his neck down and put giant fire ants on him and listen to him scream or maybe just slice his dragons throat in front of him or maybe a series of the events. With so many possibilities he didn't know what to do. He went to the balcony and saw some shapes coming towards him, He walked down the staircase and all the way across the huge castle, and though the giant doors to the courtyard.
"I don't want your names, you are the 1st regiment, nothing else!" The dark king said as he was looking a well over hundred Wyverns and more landing by the second. Then a terrible
screech went through the air and a beast erupted through the ground, it was huge and easily three times the size of Shruikan, and with so many heads.
"It's a Hydra, battle positions!" Said a Wyvern rider and they took off.
"Halew" and the Hydra froze.
"What do you want?" asked Galbatorix.
"Death!" the Hydra said.
"There's plenty of that coming soon" Galbatorix replied with a evil smile.
"Good I want this one most" he showed a picture of Eragon on Saphira.
"Kill the human but not the dragon" Said Galbatorix.
"Ok, master but cut off my heads, all of them until I say stop and heal my wing. The Hydra said Galbatorix was puzzled and only caught off one and then it grew back into two and he started slashing wildly while laughing.
"I will present you with a rider and bond you and him together. The evil king said.
"Ok, when will I attack?" asked the Hydra
"Tomorrow" the dark king said.
"And you, you are not the captain of this regiment." The dark king said as he was pointing at the Wyvern rider who told them to get into battle positions.
"I get to pick who it is, and it is you" He said pointing at a female rider of a green Wyvern.
"You are second in command" He said pointing at a male rider and his purple Wyvern.
"You two in command will be the largest so come in here so I can make you bigger, than I will pick 48 other Wyverns to get bigger." Said the Dark king
"You come I got to get you a rider" stated the dark king.
"Every magician is to report to the courtyard now" Said the dark king projecting his thoughts out to everyone in the city.
One by one everyone showed up each going in front of the Hydra and let it reach into they're minds. "No, no, no, no, no, maybe step over there, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, maybe, no, no, maybe" The Hydra said over and over till there was twelve people left, and then, "No, no, no, no, no, maybe, no, no, no, no, maybe, no" said the Hydra.
He stayed in the first ones mind for over fifteen minutes, then when to the next.
"You" the Wyvern said as all four-hundred-or-more heads surrounding a female spellcaster.
"Guliegl notlx jabt kiatoiz hdfeamnd " the dark king recited over and over until both the Hydra and the girl was three hundred foot in the air then they went slowly down and touched the ground.
"Hydra touch the girl" The dark king said, and it touched her and she screamed and all over her body were red lines not like veins but with a ghostly red glow popping up, then the scream slowly turned into a laugh and she looked down, her eyes were pure black even the white is just pure black.
"Alright, you and your Hydra will teach these Wyvern riders." said the dark king
"You do not command me!" Said the girl
"I don't?… you are of this city and" he was cut off by the girl.
"I am Belovi the shade of all shades put in one and rider of Hydras, you do not command me!" Said the shade
With that the dark king froze her like he did with the hydra and the hydra attacked then the dark king drop his spell and then froze both and entered her mind and found her true name and of her Hydra he said them they were long and complicated but finally got them and made them swear loyally in the ancient language, it was long and difficult speech that took over an hour so they could not do the same thing as Murtagh and let them go
"Now you will leave here at the break of dawn and go with the 1st regiment to the Varden and attack." the king stated in ancient language so they had to then told the 1st regiment that they had better not mess up. Then the exhausted king went in the castle doors, though the hallway and into his chambers where he fell asleep.
Chapter 7:final battle.
Eragon woke up holding Ayra in his arms, they were in the same tent, Ayra decided to move in with him but Eragon instead moved in with her so she didn't have to move everything, he looked up and saw the gold and diamond flower Eragon sung for her when they were running through the empire. He stayed there watching her sleep, about an hour later she awoke
"Good morning Eragon my love." Ayra said with a smile
"Good morning Ayra my love" Eragon said smiling bigger than hers.
"I love you" Eragon said
"I love you too" Ayra said this is the happiest thing he ever heard, then he kissed her, and they kissed and they kissed and kissed, and then got up and went to the courtyard to find several hundreds of griffins sleeping in the courtyard and with a griffin keeping watch, he rose and with his rider on his back,
"Hello, we were told to come here by four other griffins" The griffin rider said.
"Yes, there are four of them here, and how many ore there now?" Eragon asked
"five-hundred-twenty-three, I mean five-hundred-twenty-seven." the rider said
"F-f-f-five-hunderd? Eragon asked not believing
"and twenty-seven." the griffin stated like it was an un-significant number.
"Well welcome to the Varden I will get my Lady." Eragon said walking away,
He went to Lady Nasuada's chambers and the night guard asked "State your name and business"
"Eragon Sladeslayer, important business. Eragon said
"Eragon Sladeslayer asks of an audience of important business." Night hawk called into the room.
"Send him in" came a voice inside the room.
"Hello my lady, you need to come down to the courtyard pretty soon" Eragon said as he was walking in the room "And you should like get me a card so I can just walk in"
"Ok, I will" Nasuada said back,
"Ok, goodbye" Eragon said. He went back down to his tent with Ayra and they kissed and laid down and stared into each others eyes about an hour after they got done, they laid there some more then got dress.
"I haven't seen Ronan in a while, I'm going to, I would like it if you came too, will you?" Asked Eragon hopefully
"I would like that a lot" Ayra replied and so they went clear across the camp, and too Roran's tent and Eragon knocked on his sword,
"Come in" Came in Roran's voice came and Ayra and Eragon went in.
"Hello cousin, where's Katrina?" Asked Eragon,
"She went over to a friends tent earlier" Roran said back
"Oh, well this is Ayra" Eragon said
"Hello Ayra" Roran said nodding his head
"Hello, Roran" Ayra said back.
"What brings you too here?" Roran asked.
"Nothing just seeing you" Eragon said back
"and you?" Roran asked looking at Ayra
"Nothing, just with Eragon, meeting new people" Ayra answered.
"Yes, well I have things to do, I imagine you and Eragon know about the siege of Belatona, and well Nasuada just promoted me to third in command of the Varden." Roran said proudly.
"Well congratulations" Eragon said to Roran, with that they left and went to lady Nasuada's chambers.
"Hello, Eragon Sladeslayer, you have a pass to go in whenever you want" Said the nighthawk, and with Ayra right behind, the nighthawk stopped her,
"Stat your name, and business" he said to her
"Ayra Sladeslayer, and with Eragon." Said Ayra.
"Ayra wishes an aud---" the nighthawk was saying as he was cut off by Nasuada
"Oh, she can have a pass too." Nasuada said rudely
"Hello my lady, have you seen the courtyard yet?" Eragon asked
"No, I've been busy of how to take the city from the ground." She said
"You don't need to" Eragon revealed
"Just come down to the courtyard and see." Ayra filled in.
"Ok, lets go" She said agreeing and as she walked by the nighthawk.
"Those two can go threw without an investigation of who they are" Nasuada stated
"Yes, my lady, I'm sorry" The nighthawk said
"Don't be, just now you know" Nasuada said, and they walked down the citadel, through the door, through the Varden and into the courtyard.
"How many are there?" Nasuada asked
"five-hundred-twenty-seven" Eragon stated with a smile
"Well then we attack tomorrow" Nasuada stated
"Ok, then I and the others will train them" Eragon said
"Alright, all Griffins fighting for the Varden and against Galbatorix and the Wyverns?" Eragon asked knowing the answer and it was 527 "Yes"'s.
"Good, now we will assault the city of Belatona in three days while the Varden is marching there." Nasuada said, then a screech Eragon recognized all to well, it was the Hydra, with that Eragon ran to the castle-wall where the dragons were, and saddled Saphira while Murtagh was saddling Thorn and the other three were saddling there's and jumped on and into the air five dragons and over five hundred Griffins were flying towards what is soon to be one of the biggest aerial battles ever.
They got closer and closer and the Griffins and dragons were flying up higher and higher until they where above the Wyverns and then dropped everywhere you could see Wyverns colliding with three or more Griffins, but all five dragons went for the Hydra with a girl on top, and then she started firing fire bolts at them, and Eragon and Ayra got a weird chill that made there hair stand up.
"It is I, Belovi the shade of all shades, come for revenge on you to for killing me twice!" she said.
Wyvern after Wyvern hit the ground, not many Griffins went down for there superior number until there wasn't that many Wyvern's left and they surrounded it, the five dragon-riders charge for the Hydra with over four-hundred heads. It easily made the back away until Murtagh got it on the belly and made all of the heads turn and Eragon went surging forward and chopped off at least thirty heads, and Ayra and Blodhgarm attacked from the sides taking many heads and Lopry attacked from above, the shade said something Eragon didn't catch but everyone was thrown off and away, everyone quickly regained altitude and regrouped, they separted and attacked again while the shade was slicing off heads, three attacked all but Ayra who was flying below the Hydra and Eragon who was going higher and higher with Saphira, and then jumped off, Murtagh jumped off of Thorn and challenged him without being attacked by the Hydra, he fought valiantly but was cut in the leg and arm and he dropped Zar'rock, he was now defenseless and was being attacked by the shade Eragon had Brisingr in his grasp and closer and closer as the shade was about to lope off Murtagh's head Eragon cried "Brisingr!" and his sword caught fire and the shade looked up just in time to get a sword through the stomach but shades only died with something piecing they're hearts and Murtagh knew this so he quickly grabbed a dagger from his belt and stabbed the shade in the heart, then a horrible scream, and the Hydra started snapping at them and they got off just in time to get caught by Tyhra and Ayra. They were getting chased and Saphira and Thorn dropped below Tyhra and Eragon and Murtagh jumped onto their on dragons and strapped in, all the Wyverns but two huge ones were dead or to hurt to fight by now so all of the Griffins and dragons surrounded the Hydra who was screeching loudly, and the two Wyverns attacked and fifty or so Griffins attacked and kilt it fast and easy.
"Aim for right below the neck" Eragon shouted a mental thought to everyone, and the dragons and griffins all attacked, head after head fell then the Griffins opened their mouths and shot mist out and once it hit the Hydra it froze, and fell and hit the ground with a loud clash that sounded like a twenty-ton vase hit the ground, it was dead.
