I'm updating again!
Eragon POV
We were meeting once more.
"No, that's not possible, Eragon." Murtagh said running a hand over his face at my latest plan.
"It can and will work, Murtagh." I said glaring at him half heartedly.
"How will we protect the rest of the eggs if everyone is searching the island, unless you have some secret part to this plan, it won't work." he shot at me. Silence, he was right. I stared into Saphira's blue eyes absent-mindedly. Then it came to me.
"It's perfect!" I said leaping up excitedly, momentarily forgetting the crowd, " If we act as though the dragon holds are empty, save for the clutches of dragon eggs, we can trap the shade in the Cathedral leading to the Dragon Holds."
Silence followed as the Masters pondered over the radicle plan.
"It just might work." Orlo muttered half surprised. The rest of the masters nodded their heads slowly.
"Well, it seems you can come up with the craziest plans in one bout." Murtagh grumbled, "But it definitly might, might, work." he infasized the second might.
"It will work... Possibly how we planned it or not, but it'll work." Blodhgram said, speaking for the first time since this meeting began.
"Of course it will, I came up with it." I grinned at him. He smirked, very much un-elf like
"That's the problem, you came up with it." he scoffed at me and I rolled my eyes. Suddenly the doors flew open and Selena, Islanzadi and Brom came tumbling in.
"Can we help! Can we?" Selena lept onto my lap and looking at me with wide innocent looking eyes, "Please?"
"I-" I started
"We really really REALLY want to help!" Brom said wiggling into my arms as Islanzadi climbed onto my lap beside her sister.
"PLEASE!" she cried out as she burrowed her face against my chest. I looked at murtagh for help, but he declined.
Little Ones... I can tell you how you can help. Saphira said, her head lowered down to their level, We are all going to go on a treasure hunt, for a shade. And we need you three to help us. Do you want to come with us?
"Yes! Can we, Daddy?" the looked at me with the eyes and I flinched.
"Yes, but you must obey your Aunt Saphira." I said diverting my eyes from their faces.
"Yay!" they cried out in elation as the scampered off me and out of the room. I looked up and saw that everyone was staring at me.
"What?" I asked at their quizical looks.
"You, my friend, have changed from that lost young boy that the last of the female dragons hatched for to a man of wise understanding and father hood." Blodhgram said smiling happily. I raised my eyebrows. I already knew this.
"Well, now that that discovery is over with, let us get back to business." I declared and we began our planning.
How'd you like it? I don't think it was as good as last chapter, but okay. It's the best I can do to hold you over for now. I only have a few more chapters before the epilogue! Nooooo! But I have a sequel for this one already planned out.
