I seriously think I suffer from Short Chapter Syndrome (SCS for short) sorry people!

Empire

Chapter 5:The Wrath of Mercury (Dramatic Music)

Eragon stood on the front porch of MErcury's house. Ok, it's now or never. He knocked on the door which opened instantly.

"Didyoufindher?"Mercury blurted out, pulling Eragon inside by his arm. Man, she had a strong grip.

"Um...ah...well...um...no?" Eragon said helplessly. He had a right to be scared, Mercury had an awful temper. She didn't get mad easily, but when she did, it was Bad with a capital B.

"WHAT?" shouted mercury, her hands clenched. Wind started to whip around her. "YOU DIDN'T SAVE STAR?"

Eragon stepped back as Mercury advanced towards him. He backed into a wall, oops... Mercury's face was inches away from Eragon's and light flooded into the room as the front door opened revealing Arya.

"Oromis want's to see you and Rose so you can start train..." Arya stared, openmouthed at Eragon and Mercury's comprimising position. "Ah... well..." she muttered sheepishly, getting the wrong impression, "awkward..." She turned and hurridly walked out.

"Mercury, sorry about Star. I tried, I really did!"

"I know," Mercury said, smiling sadly, "I was just so mad. She's my sister, you know? Sorry for almost killing you."

"S'kay. Friends?"

"Friends!" cried Mercury, hugging Eragon. She let go of him and smiled, "You know, they're all gonna get the wrong impression..."

"Aww man!"

Yay! cried Rose (now the size of a room, she grew fast! Mercury had made her another bigger treehouse room connected to her's so Rose could fly out easily. it was big enough for Rose when she got to be Saphira's size, who can carry 3 people. Mercury made the room using magic, it was how she spent the first five hours waiting for Eragon) And nobody died!


My problem, SCS is driving me (and probably you) insane! I had this typed up yesterday, but it deleted when I went to upload it! I got mad! But I'm happy now XD R&R!
