I was... BORED! I mean did it take this long for Riders to recover in the book? She'd been down for almost half an hour. Nah, she's fine! I'm a dragon and she's my Rider, no way I'd permanently harm her.

I think...

But I'm bored as I said, and starting to get hungry. Should I try and hunt something? I mean I'm not very big right now and it could be hard. What if something gets me?

I'll just stay put, I mean, it's really enjoyable so far to be in proximity to my Rider I've found. It's, calming, yeah that's the word I want!

Also very weird at the same time. Kinda contradictory, but it's what I'm feeling alright.

Gotta get rid of this boredom, and distract my stomach until she gets up and feeds me. Im sure I'll learn to be a dragon soon, maybe we'll go to the elves to train soon! Or are we already travelling there?

Wait! What's that smell? It's almost... Familiar? Like, I feel I know what that is...

I hopped off my Rider, sniffing around her, searching for it.

There!

The leather pouch with the other egg! It must be Saphira's! I grabbed the bag with my teeth, the taste of leather filling my tongue. It wasnt very pleasant, but it seemed to help curb my hunger, so ill count it as a plus. Making sure she was still out i scanned for Eragon, in the same spot as earlier but looking more confused than before. I ran/drug the egg across the forest floor to him.

Ya I was dragging it, what do you want from me? I just hatched! This thing was heavier than i thought it would be! Besides, im sure theres enough magic surrounding it that it will be fine.

I slid it infront of him, setting it by his knees.

He gave me an odd look, but made no move towards it. So I started grabbing the leather laces, jerking them around like I was trying to get into it. Eventually he got the point and opened the bag.

He managed to get it open, and at that point I wondered if the books exaggerated the power of the elves. But then again Arya was unconscious so maybe that affected what I assumed were many wards around the egg. His jaw dropped when he got it open, obviously recognizing what it was from mine.

He went to reach his hand into the bag to pull the egg out-

"What do yoy think you're doing?" Arya asked, coldly albiet tiredly aswell. "Put that down."

Immediately I let out my roar/squeak and charged my way to her. Jumping up into her arms, i misjudged the distance. I was further away than i wanted to be. Great way to show my magesty to others...

Just when i thought id plumet to the ground from my jump, landing snout first in the dirt, my wings snapped open on their own. Or at least, i THOUGHT there own. Maybe i did it.

Ah! Look at me im flying! This is awesome!!

Ok well, maybe it's just a glide, and maybe I'm only a foot above the ground. But this is awesome! I'm already learning!

Arya crouched down and managed to snag me out of the air and into her arms with no problem. I got my snout right up next to her face, rubbing my cheek against hers. A low humming started to eminate from my throat. Huh, is this like a cat purring?

I did my best to impress on her mind how great and amazing of a flyer i was. After all i did just hatch, and managed to glide a few feet. Man im awesome! I puffed up my chest a bit.

Arya let out a laugh, and my humming grew stronger. The book was definitely right about how pleasing her laugh was to the ears.

My stomach rumbled and at that point all i could do was impress on her mind my hunger, Hunger, HUNGER!

"Oh, I see" she murmed. I press more hunger on her. "Yes yes, I understand hatchling..." She looked around uncomfortably for a few seconds. Eyes landing on Eragon.

"I..." She began hesitantly. "You wouldn't happen to have any meat would you? I... Don't partake in the eating of meat or enjoy taking an animals life, but it seems my dragon is hungry. If not it seems I'm going to have to get used to it, for his sake, until he gets big enough to hunt for himself."

"Er.. Right," He said, walking to his bags and rummaging around. I chirped with impatience. "I'm looking im looking. Ah! Here, some jerky for my hunting trip, should be good right?" He held out the two strips to her.

As soon as he had taken it from his pack my mouth started to drool. I could smell it from so far away! As he walked to her I couldn't help but send more of my hunger through the bond and stretch my neck out to the jerky.

He handed the meat to Arya, instead of me! I almost let out a whimper... Alright fine! I did whimper. I'm hungry!

She set me on the ground, settling herself infront of me and tearing a small chuck off, holding it out to me.

I'd like to say I practiced restraint, but as soon as she held it out to me, all control disappeared. As I snapped my head out and gobbled up the the morsel in a flash, I heard her gasp and mumble something about making sure to get her fingers out of the way just incase.

I hummed in pleasure from the food, and proceeded to bombard our link with even more hunger.

Arya smiled and shook her head, feeding me the rest and chuckling quietly. Once I was finished I licked my chops, savoring the flavor of the meat. Feeling my belly full and bulging, a sleepiness filled me.

Walking over to my Rider I plopped myself into her lap to doze off. Her hands started to scratch behind my jaw and i couldn't help but let out a happy hum. Sending feelings of happiness and fullness through our bond.

She began speaking with Eragon, but I wasn't paying any attention as sleep took me. Completely happy.

I think I like this...
