The sky grew black as clouds began to gather above the forsaken man and son; the red dragon twisted behind the younger man smoke snorting from her snout heat radiating from her body.
Morzan glanced back at Belle "Belle scout ahead find Brom… and kill Sapphira…I'll be done with this man". Belle took off with one sweep of her wings hitting but dust around the two men. Once she was only a dark speck in the already dark sky Morzan looked back over at the man. "My father died a long time ago" Morzan said raising his sword. The wind blew his long twisted hair across his face.
"The man you killed was not your father" The man said looking at Morzan's face twisting into a wicked grin. "I never thought you would betray every one just like you've just done…I especially never thought you would be turning against you baby brother."
Morzan's smile widened "Brom doesn't see what kind of world we can create…a world of protection world of peace, there won't be any more fighting."
"If you truly believe that then you are truly lost; your mind has been so tangled only a fool would believe that Galbatorix would want that after he lost Lilly; there were only two that kept him sane…one was your mother…two was Lilly, her soul so full of kindness…he lost some of his mind when your mother left him and lost the rest after Lilly's death." he paused and smiled as Morzan's sword had gotten ready to fight, he raised his sword as well "I knew it was only a small amount of time until this happened." He looked at Morzan "My brother never seemed to always be there, my father thought that Lilly saved him from himself." Morzan's sword lowered the man in front of him smiled.
"Brother?" Morzan asked his sword now lowered to his side. The man nodded and lowered his sword as well.
"Yes, I am Galbatorix's baby brother just as Brom is yours…and just as you want Brom dead Galbatorix wants I as well." The man replied lowering his head to look at the ground.
"I do not want Brom dead" Morzan whispered
"Ah…but you do" The man looked up "Didn't I just hear you tell your dragon to find Brom and to kill Sapphira?" He frowned "Killing Sapphira will result in Brom dieing as well, you must have realized that."
Morzan looked down "He will learn to live without her."
"You know deep down that is not true." The older man gasped making Morzan jump. His eyes were closed Morzan was unsure what was going on, a small break in the clouds occurred as a light from above shot down surrounding he old man, Morzan sheltered his eyes from the light stepping back. The light dissipated around him Morzan glanced back at him. The man was only standing his head facing the ground his arms limp at his side; slowly Morzan took a step towards him once again just as he was in arms length the man's head moved so the two were standing face to face as his eyes opened Morzan was shocked to see his eyes were no longer the same by glowing orbs. The man grabbed Morzan's shoulder.
"By the end of this war sorrow shall fill the air, pain will be always, death will find its way thought the world. The youngest brother shall survive through the pain of those he loves the oldest shall parish under the younger's hand, no mercy death shall come to all who bring pain." Morzan tried to pull away but the man's grip was far to tight "A boy shall be born he shall end it all when only death is known it shall pass." The man fell to his knees letting go of his grip on Morzan's shoulder.
"What was that?" Morzan asked as he fell backwards.
The man looked up "I am blessed with the power of foresight as are you."
Morzan looked at him "No you are wrong…"
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Noa…Brom where are we going?" Selena asked she glanced down at Kira then to Brom. She was scared never before had she ever been on a dragon not to mention ever go as fast as Saphira was flying.
"No one knows about this place" Aurora said with a smile pulling Brom into a cave. It had been a four day fly for Saphira but it was the only place that Galbatorix did not know of, it was where Aurora and Brom spent their… loving time together. Here no one would interrupt them plus Brom had put a spell so Saphira could sit outside without feeling attached to the two.
"How did you find it?" Brom asked
"I was wondering around for weeks. And I just found it." She replied her dark hair framing her face; Brom smiled walking over to her and putting his hand on her face "Plus you can practice you magic without others watching you… I know you hate it."
Brom leaned his face to hers and passionately kissed her "You know how great you are?"
"I like to believe I'm pretty great" She replied just above a whisper.
"I love you…And I will never love someone that same way as I love you." He picked her up and placed her on the ground, he kissed her and started to take off her cloths.
"I love you Brom…more then anything in the world…."
Brom shook his head getting the memory out of his mind; he didn't want to think about Aurora right now, the pain in his chest increased every time he thought about her or Morzan, the two he trusted more then he trusted himself.
"A place an old….friend…old friend old me about." He replied
Selena pressed her face into his back to shield it from the wind, "I love you Brom…More then anything I have ever loved before."
Brom nodded "Umm…thanks" Brom didn't know what to say; he knew his feelings for Selena were nothing compared to how he felt…how he still felt about Aurora.
Selena didn't say anything she wondered why he didn't say he loved her back. She led it slide he was probably to focused on getting them to the safe place.
It was almost morning when Saphira landed beside a dark cave; "We're here" He said getting off Saphira and taking Kira from her mothers arms, Selena slid off behind him and followed him into the cave, once all four of them were inside Brom stiffened.
-Crackle…Crackle-
He heard fire "Stay here." He said to the three girls he headed deeper into the cave, Selena nodded and backed up closer to Saphira.
Brom walked slowly sword drawn his eyes caught sight of the fire and a figure standing over it, he accidentally kicked a small pebble
-Click Click Click-
The figure stiffened then looked up; he watched as it stood up "I knew you would come Brom" the figure said.
Brom knew that voice, so soft, so beautiful he moved closer now he could see the figure's face he was almost speechless "Aurora" He said so low she only heard it because she was an elf.
"I've been waiting for you Brom" She said running over to him and kissing him; he couldn't help but kiss her back, he loved the feeling of her lips against his; he picked her up bringing her back over to the fire, he could see the where she had cloth laid out to be her bed, he placed her on that and fell next to her, he started to kiss her he couldn't control himself any more he placed his hands on her face and kissed her harder, she smiled as he kissed her and started to take off his cloths she pulled away form his and started to kiss his neck, kisses trailing down his chest. Brom's fears and concerns all disappeared, nothing else mattered right now only himself and Aurora.

"Yes my son…all you have to do is close you eyes…focus hard and you will see the future" Griffin said
"I am not your son… I have no father" Morzan said "You want to hear the story or not?" He asked
Morzan looked at the man but didn't say another word.
"After your mother left Galbatorix; I came searching for her; Galbatorix loved her so much; I found her. She wouldn't come back with me so I stayed in the village convinced that I would bring her back to my big brother." He paused "As time went on I fell in love with her…when she got married I thought I would die." He smiled "But she came to me at night… a lot I loved her so much, I felt guilty that I was betraying my brother but I couldn't help it I loved her and she loved me. Soon she became pregnant with you, she told her husband you were his but it wasn't, you were mine." He looked at Morzan "A few years later she had Brom who was also mine…a few weeks after his birth the village kept getting attacked by Urgles, I tried my best but I got captured by them… your mother put a barrier around the village to protect it. The barrier weakened as her body slowly wore out; as you know she couldn't even stand. She was constantly pump out magic to protect the people in the village." He glanced down at the ground then back up at Morzan "There was nothing more important to her then the people; even though her body was dieing she didn't stop. That's is until your father found out that you and Brom were not his sons. He started the fire in your house, the barrier weakened and the Urgles broke through. Instead of using her power to save her self she killed all the Urgles in the town. I broke away from the Urgles to late I got back as you carried her body outside. I had an egg I stole from the Urgles, when I saw your brother run into the forest I went into it making sure he would find it. Sure enough he did and ha got Saphira."
Morzan shook his head "I can't believe this" He said out loud he glanced at the sky as he heard Belle in the sky she landed and he mounted
I couldn't find him; he just disappeared.
"Come on Belle we have to get back" He glared at Griffin "That may me true but it doesn't change anything."
