Dragon Riders
Disclamer: I don't own any of the Eragon series or claim to. All I own is my ideas.
Chapter One
It was a cold, mucky day when Juliet woke up to a remarkable dream. She was in a cold sweat because the dream was so realistic. Her Mother and Father, King Eragon and Queen Arya, were in her dream. Her father, Eragon, was one of the riders who saved Alagesia; the other rider was her mother, Arya. Both of her parents helped the Varden free the land. There were many battles. Unfortunately, the evil King Galbatorix was a dragon rider himself and he had an egg as well, which hatched for Murtagh, who was Eragons' best friend. Her father had to battle him many times; one time Murtagh caught her father. While he was trap Murtagh reviled to Eragon that they were brothers. Fortunately, her uncle let him go but warned him that next time he wouldn't be so lucky. The Varden captured the third, and final egg, from Galbatorix; many hoping that it would hatch for them touched the egg. Only when Arya touched the egg, did it hatch. From then on her mother and father battled and defeated King Galbatorix, which freed Murtagh from the ancient language; which he swore under allegiance to King Galbatorix. Eragon and Arya soon restored order to the land and got married. Because they loved each other so much they did the whole wedding in the ancient language. All the people want them to be King and Queen of the land. So they complied. Juliet just woke up when her mother and father were being crowned. She was so happy. She loved listen to her father when he told her these types of stories. Why did I have this dream this time? Why wasn't it about the story dad told me last night? She suddenly got this weird feeling about the eggs like they were in trouble, therefore she ran to the secret room to check on the eggs. When she got there she saw that ever thing was all right. Instead of leaving right a way she stayed and admired the eggs for a while, especially the black one.
Juliet was always drawn to the black egg, yet so many others disliked it because it reminded everyone of Kings Galbatorix dragon, who caused so much pain. Except, she loved that egg. Her father always got mad if they tried to touch the eggs. He always gave a lecture if the triggered one of his defenses around the eggs. "You should always treat these eggs as if they are Kings and Queens and give them space," he always said to them. 'In just one more day, I get to touch it,' thought Juliet. She was practically jumping with joy because it would be the egg ceremony, where everyone, who was under 17 years old, in the land, came to touch the eggs to see if they would be the next riders.
Everyone expected her and her 4 other siblings to be the next dragon riders. Because it was in their blood and Saphria, Eragons' dragon, had found a mate. She had laid 5 eggs. Juliet loved to look at the eggs, because the way they glowed in the light. One egg was a fire red, another was emerald green, another was deep blue and the last two where dark maroon and pitch black. It was very odd because each egg fit the children's' personalities so well.
William, who was the oldest being 16, was quiet yet if you made him mad he was like a fire. Then there was Chantal, who was 15, she was just like her mother, peaceful and never let her emotions show, except her hair was brown like her fathers. Chantal and Sapphire were twins, but their personalities were different. Sapphire, who was 15 was quite, resourceful, like her mother, and when she had her mind set, she didn't change it at all, which was like her father and a little bit like her mother. Andrew who was the spitting image of his father, except his features were gentler like his mother, but his temper and personality was just like his father. He was 14 years old. Then Juliet who looked like her mother and father; her hair was black and features were gentle like her mother, but her eyes were blue like her father. Her temper took after her father, which was very short and she got easily frustrated. Andrew and Juliet were twins as well, but they weren't identical twins.
Unfortunately the royal children would go last so they could give the rest of the kingdom a chance. 'Though, Juliet thought, no one might want to touch this egg, so it might be mine.' She ran up the stairs out of the secret room that no one, except the royal family, knew about. She was so happy that she ran head long into to William, who was read a scroll about history while walking to his room. She was happy it was him because if it was anyone else they would have yelled at her, but all William did said,"So you've seen the eggs today." "Yes, and I'm so sorry for running into you." "Ah, well that is quiet alright and I assume that the eggs are all right." Juliet nodded; she was quite relieved that he wasn't mad. He smiled at her, gave her a quick hug, picked up his scroll and continued reading as he walked back to his room. Juliet thought to her self, 'I'm happy that he doesn't scold me all the time.' She smiled to herself and ran to her father to hear about another story; about his battles and victory over King Galbatorix.
