Hey, yes it has been a while since I've updated either of my stories, but I've been devoting my time this summer into finding another job. Honesty who knew it would take so long; last time was a piece of cake for me. Oh well, on with the story. Hopefully my writers block will go away so I can continue writing my other one by the time my semester starts.

Disclaimer: THE RUMORS AREN'T TRUE! I DO NOT OWN ERAGON!

Chapter 8

Ok, so maybe trying to fly wasn't the brightest idea he had. Sapphire was still too young to be able to fly anyway so how would he be able to now.

Eragon picked himself up and brushed himself off. He didn't hurt himself too badly, and his wings were fine. At least his excitement didn't do any lasting damage.

He looked around him. He had taken himself deeper into the Spine. He wasn't too sure where he was but he knew the general direction of home at least. He wasn't too excited about seeing his family though. He had yet to tell them about Sapphire and now there was no way for him to just hide her until a good time. He started exploring some more of the Spine, he had never been in this far.

He knew he was stalling but he really didn't want to face Garrow's reaction. He would have to hide himself from the others until their union wore off and they finally split... maybe. Sapphire didn't know if it would where off. He frowned. He still didn't know how this had happened and Sapphire wasn't able to tell him anything. She started sending pictures to him in a form of talking, but she just wouldn't say anything about this... situation.

He stopped and looked at the fading sun. His eyes widened in surprise, he hadn't noticed how dark it had gotten. Sapphire was hungry too. He didn't feel hungry but she was throwing images of food at him quite forcefully. He didn't know how he would get food, he didn't have any weapons on him except for a knife and a lot of good that would do. Sure he had claws now but he still had trouble walking without tripping over his new tail. No way he could just sneak up to a deer and slit it's throat.

Sapphire huffed in irritation.

Without a warning Eragon found himself shoved into the back of his mind. He could still see what was happening though and realized that Sapphire had taken matters into her own claws and was now hunting with their body.

He observed in silence though he didn't hold back his feelings of irritation from her. He could almost see her smug look on his face. He huffed and... sat back?... and watched Sapphire trying to learn how she could walk so silently while he had so many issues of his own.

Brom had finally found where the Razok had put Roran. They had just tied and gagged him, leaving him by the fire, figuring no one would find their campsite. They must have set off to find Eragon, cause Brom couldn't see them anywhere. He stayed still for a few more minutes just in case they returned. When nothing happened he edged out of the cover of the woods, but stayed in the shadows. Dusk was soon upon him so he had enough light to see but also enough shadow to hide. Roran hadn't gained conscious yet, he would be very troublesome to move; a path would be left behind that wouldn't be hard to notice. Brom after waiting just a little bit more drew near to his goal and quickly released Roran of his bonds. As he started to remove the gag he stopped... hearing something. He turned around and froze.
