The phantom saves the shadows
Hello people! I just want to mention here that I know this isn't that good of a story… If you don't like it so far, you probably won't like the rest.
I hurried back to the stack of backpacks and grabbed mine. Unzipping the main compartment, I felt around inside until I felt a hard rectangularish object. I pulled it out.
It was the phantom of the opera.
Now, I'm not sure if I've mentioned this, but Erika Loves the Phantom of the opera. Her real name isn't even Erika!
If there's one thing that would make Erika remember everything, its Ph.O.T.O. Taking the D.V.D. out of my backpack I called to Leah that I'd be back in a minute, and hurried down the mountain, arriving in town about an hour later (We weren't at the top of the mountain or it would have taken way longer)
At the edges of the burned heap of sticks that used to be a town, small groups of people were sleeping under the stars. I crept over to where she was asleep and put the D.V.D. where she was sure to see it when she woke up.
The next morning, we set off on our separate journeys. Leah went west, towards Terim, where she could buy some horses. Eragon, Saphira, and I went East, Towards the Ramr River.
Naturally, she didn't know it, but the phantom had had the desired effect. Obviously, twenty some kids on foot could not travel as fast as a dragon, even one carrying two humans, but the shadows were close behind… and not shadows anymore.
By the time they reached the Ramr River a few days later, I was starting to get very nervous about what we would do when we reached Urubaen, But when Saphira landed by the river, a pleasant surprise was waiting for us.
Alieina!
Oh my god… I don't think I've ever written a chapter this short! I swear this is the last short one I'll do… Probably… Just kidding! Anyway, that's all for now!
