What the bloody hell?!" Everyone screams as myself and Claire pour water over them. "That's cold!" Holly yelps. "Thanks" Mia says sarcastically. "Freakin hell. You two are evil" Jessie says, taking off her shirt and ringing it off. "Ok well now you're all awake, start packing up. We are getting a move on" I call over my shoulder as I start fitting the saddles onto the dragons. As I fit the last saddle bag to Arrow Astrid walks up holding a peice of papper in her hand. "It's from Heather. Told us to hurry up. She's getting impatient". "Well if we can find a dragon to satisfy these two we should be fine". I pointo to Jessie and Holly. "Well let's get going".
I hang out the back of the group with Holly. We're discussing the Dragon Jewl. "So do you think it could be used for anything else?" She asks me. "Maby. Who knows how long this things been around. Could do just about anything. Guess that's why it's so dangerous". I study it in my hands. "It's got a weird kind of core to it though so we better be careful with it...", "there's a fire over there. Best go check it out" Astrid yells back to us. "Lets go. Could be something interesting" I say to Holly.
As we get closer I relise what started the fire. It's a massive plain red Typhoomerang with ocean blue eyes. "Woah" I hear Jessie whisper and I think I kniw what's coming. "She's beutiful. I want her". Yep, definitely saw that coming. "No way, it's to dangerous for a rookie like you" Astrid says, crossing her arms. "Come on Astrid, I managed to train Flare. I'll be helping". I plead and so does Jessie. "Ok fine, but non of us are going to rush in to save you when this goes wrong". I roll my eyes and look at Jessie. "Nothings gonna go wrong".
"Ok so, it's gonna fire at you, but because it has a cyclone spiral of fire you shoukd be able to get to its head. Once you do that rub the dragon nip on her nose. Got it?" She nods, "got it" "ok three, two one!" Jessie manages to get into the middle of the blast and li, "ate the snout. She rubs it against the Typhoomerang's snout and it falls to the ground. "Nice one. Just give her a minute to come to it and then we'll try to make sure you don't get killed". "I'm NOT gonna get killed Indi", Jessie sighs and I look back up to the others and wave to them. I hear something stir behind me and look back to the Typhoomerang awake. I reach into my pocjet and clench the Jewl tightly just in case we need it. "Ok now move slowly and try not to startle it. That's good. Now reach out your hand and...". I whisper to her in dragonese "hey its ok. We would like you to join our group. My friend here just wants to be your friend". "You speak my toung, can trust you?" I give her a nod. "Of course". The Typhoomerang slowly lowers her head and I sigh in relief. "Nice. What are you gonna name her?" "Umm, Eragon, it's a dragon from one of my favorite book". "Cool, now lets go show Astrid you didn't get yourself killed".
As we fly up towards them, Jessie positioning her self on Eragon, Astrid just stares at us. "So who didn't get killed" I ask, smirking like an idiot. She just rolls her eyes and motions foward. "Lets keep going. And no more being an idiot". "We where'nt idiots". She just nods. "Uh huh. Lets go".
"Hey guys, its getting late. We should make camp" I call, watching the sun set. "Alright, how about yhat island there?" Mia asks, point to an island. "Isn't that...?" "Yep, one of the old dragon hunter bases". I lokk at her concerned. "You sure you want to stay here Astrid? I understand if you don't. We know what happens, we've all watched it". She sighs. "Of course you have. And I'm fine, it's just thst this was the one where they kept the adult death song". "Ok. Well if you at any stage want to leave, just say so". "I know. Now lets set up. We're getting going as soon as the sun rises". We all groan, including the dragons. "Come on. We've had plenty if days off. And I'm dure you've had worse when you where stuck on that island". "Yeah, you have a point. Lets go gang". She chuckles. "What?" "You just sounded like Hiccup". I smirk. "Must think I'm pretty attractive then, right?" She runs up and tackles me. "Say it again, I dear you". "Well, I could, but it's only fun if you get a scar out of it". Everyone bursts out laughing. "I do NOT sound like that". "Yeah, yeah you do" Claire says, backing me up. "Ugh, just go to sleep. I want to see Heather". "Fine. Goodnight everyone". "Goodnight".
