About two weeks had passed since the two eggs hatched. The red dragon still needed both Kendra and Murtagh, which the Varden found hilarious. Both dragons were much bigger, they were about as tall as a person's stomach and about six feet long and three feet wide. Murtagh, Kendra, Ice, Eragon, Saphira, Arya, Nasuda, Orik, and of course the two male dragons were just lounging around, chatting. Ajihad had told them they had all been working to long and to take today as a break.
"Mommy! Daddy!" a voice yelled very loudly in Murtagh and Kendra's mind, making Kendra scream and Murtagh fall off his seat. Everyone automatically looked at the two. Both Murtagh and Kendra looked at the red dragon with wide eyes.
"Did you just talk!?" Murtagh asked.
"Did you just yell Mommy and Daddy at us?!" Kendra asked. The others snickered.
"Yup!" the dragon replied.
"O-okay....how about now that you can talk we choose a name for you?" Murtagh asked. Everyone came up with a long list of names, but the red dragon rejected each.
"I want something simple...like Ice!" the dragon said.
"That's my name! Ugh! Your like a thorn in my foot! Annoying!" Ice growled. The red dragon had annoyed her almost constantly, tackling her, jumping on her, you name it.
"Thorn! I wanna be named Thorn!" the red dragon said, jumping up and down.
"Okay....Thorn it is...." Kendra said.
Thorn skipped around her happily and broke into every ones mind connection to chant, "See! See! My name is Thorn! Mommy said so! Thorn! Thorn! Thorn!" The others were full out laughing, except for Murtagh and Kendra who were blushing brightly.
"Of Course....I get the insane dragon..." Murtagh muttered. Thorn jumped towards him.
"Daddy! What's insane mean?" Thorn asked curiously, before Murtagh had a chance to answer he again chanted, "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy's insane! Insane! Insane!" in every ones mind, causing Kendra to burst out laughing with everyone else this time. Murtagh glared at the dragon, but couldn't keep an amused smile off his face.
"I believe the correct terminology to describe Thorn is annoying and immature." another voice rang out in every ones head. The all looked at the green dragon and how he was glaring at Thorn.
"Your just upset I beat you so many times!" Thorn sung. The green dragon shook his head in disbelief.
"Okay, it looks like both of you can talk now." Eragon stated the obvious.
"Really genius? Note the sarcasm." the green dragon rolled his eyes. The others snickered and Eragon glared. Again they made a list of names, and again all were rejected.
"None of them fit me." the green dragon explained.
"How about Greeny or Clumsy!!" Thorn exclaimed brightly, the green dragon gave him a withering look. But, he hadn't moved from his sitting position, because he was clumsy as the others saw when he tripped all the time.
"At least your dragon isn't annoying and is somewhat smart." Murtagh told Arya. Arya laughed.
"How about Brock?" Nasuda asked, the green dragon turned to her.
"I like it....okay I think I'll be Brock...." he muttered into Arya's mind.
"He's likes it, Brock is now his name." Arya told everyone.
"I still think it should be Clumsy....." Thorn murmured, causing Brock to glare at him. They went and told Ajihad who smiled approvingly.
