Chapter Twenty-Three
Your Plans WILL be Foiled
Merithurosstopped. Her heart beating rapidly and her smile covering most of her face. This was it! The sign on the tree said so! Her insides boiled with joy. Luck was on her side today.
"And this is it. Milk and Cookies. I found this place...a few years ago, it's like my home," She couldn't remember how old Estarael was when she found this place so she improvised not wanting to mess up her luck.
"Wow. This place is beautiful!"
"I know! I love it! No one except for you, Icefire and I know about this place."
"I feel special..." Murtagh muttered his lines. Merithuros smiled at him. She was practically shining. Her father would be so proud!
ooxxoo
Icefire! Mortalitas roared. What happened to him?! Where was he? He just disappeared. Mortalitas roared once more and took off into the azure sky to Thorn.
Thorn!
Mortalitas, what is it? You sound upset.
Icefire! He-He's gone!
Gone? What do you mean gone? Did he go hunt-
No! He just disappeared like- Argh! Let me show you. Mortalitas shared her memory of Icefire's disappearance to Thorn who immediately began thinking over the situation.
I..I don't know what has happened. Maybe we should go tell the king and queen. Eragon and Saphira would be coming this afternoon. They might know what is going on.
Thorn and Mortalitas flew at full speed to the king and queen. Each worried about Icefire.
ooxxoo
Merithuros played with Murtagh's here- much to his disliking- while they sat upon the boulder. Merithuros' mind was far away. She was thinking about what had to be done now.
1. Send Estarael in the past - Check
2. Pretend to be Estarael and Mortalitas, Icefire - Check
3. Make Murtagh fall in love with me - In Progress
4. Coronation - Needed to be done
5. Kill Royal family - Needed to be done
6. Rule Alagaesia - Needed to be done
Ah six simple things to do, three done. The Coronation was after the wedding, which was about two weeks away. Merithuros was on Cloud Nine. Little did she know that her little plan was already over.
ooxxoo
The king paced the room. His feet sounding a loud thud with every step. He stroked his beard and scrunched up his nose. He wanted to get rid of Merithuros so badly. But her dragon wanted Murtagh to realize for himself that she was not Estarael. The king wondered if he should be trusting Mortalitas. After all she was Merithuros' dragon. What if all of this was part of their plan? He had to convey this to Thorn when he saw then the king felt a deep prescence enter his mind. His mind was blocked to everyone except the dragons. He trusted them enough not to tell his secrets.
My king! I have some important news to show you!
Show?
Kep your eyes closed and focus on the memory I am sending you.
Okay...
The king sealed his eyes shut and saw the vision, full blast. What had happened to Icefire?
What happened to him?
That we do not know, but I guess when eragon and Saphira come they might know, My king have faith.
How is that girl?
I'm not sure. Mortalitas would find out and then tell me. I must take your leave.
Goodbye.
The king felt the prescence leave his mind. Well this was the perks that came with being a king, not so?
ooxxoo
Mortalitas felt for her connection with Merithuros.
Merithuros! How is it going?
It's wonderful! I found it! There was an inscription in the tree and.... Mortalitas fought to keep the disappointment in her voice out. She was for once grateful that unlike rider and dragon Merithuros could not feel her emotions through their connection. She figured it was because Merithuros wasn't her real rider. Mortalitas had often wondered who she was really destined to be with. It was painful knowing that someone you had a strong connection with was never going to meet you. Mortalitas snapped back to the conversation in a minute.
That's fantastic! I knew it would work out! Now all you have to do is make him fall in love with you! Not so?
Yes. I have to go, he's talking to me.
Goodbye. Mortalitas cut off her connection. At least Merithuros was still going to fail in her plans.
Mortalitas looked at Thorn and frowned.
She found it?
Yes. The inscription....
That's too bad. But she will pay for it all. We know now... Mortalitas... Can I ask you something?
Yes go right ahead.
You love Icefire?
I'm....not sure....
Thorn nodded his head but said no more. There were more important things at hand. Now all they needed to do was wit for Icefire...
Okay okay, don't kill me. It's not that long..... but there's not much more to tell in the present. So I think I might be having more chapters in the past from now on. Don't worry I'll tell you at the beginning of the chapter. I know the whole concept of this story might be somewhat confusing so plaese don't hesitate to ask me anything about it. I'll be more than glad to answer. Tell me how it was ;D Bye...
