Eragon was shocked to say the least. Now he had to get out of this mess.
"I didn't mean that she was stupid or anything-"
Little one, he has gone. Said Saphira, her voice was laced with pity and empathy, maybe even motherly. Eragon sighed and breathed in deeply, soaking up the Sun's rays.
We need to leave. He said, lying down to stare at the brilliantly blue sky.
At this moment?
Well, maybe ten more minutes.
The warmth of the day seemed to infuse Eragon with energy. He could tell that it was going to be a hot day, he was enjoying it while it was only pleasantly warm. He felt full of life on days like this and when he sat up, it was plain to see that everything else did too. The birds in the trees and in the sky were chirping merrily, singing their songs for the world to hear. The trees themselves were rustling their leaves in the faint breeze, illuminated by the Sun's early morning rays.
Eragon froze.
There was no breeze.
Something was coming through the trees extremely quickly, towards himself and Saphira.
He jumped onto Saphira's back and she was alarmed at the sudden change of mood, he said quickly, simply.
There's something coming. We need to be airborne.
She took off in an instant. They were leaving the ground far behind and the Sun seemed much brighter now that they were in the air but Eragon and Saphira kept their eyes firmly on the ground, where the trees were rustling. There was a voice,
"So he told you he was an idiot?"
"Yes. Those were his exact words."
"He may already have gone."
"I doubt it. He seemed very comfortable."
Eragon scoffed out loud. The voices stopped instantly.
Shall we land? Asked Saphira.
We may as well. There's a clearing near to where they stopped.
OoOoOoOoO
Angela hurried to the clearing only to see that she had missed the landing. But none the less she was glad to have found Eragon, she had been worrying ever since it had dawned on her the night before that he may do something idiotic because of her words. She half walked, half jogged, over to he and Saphira. She nodded at the dragon, she had always respected Saphira, it must be hard having to have brains enough for two.
"I have realised" she didn't mention when "That you are an idiot." Eragon groaned
"I think you made that quite clear yesterday." Angela shook her head.
"You will take what I said literally and go barging up to Arya demanding her love." Angela walked to stand right in front Eragon. "That won't work."
"How do you know?" He sounded so indignant that Angela had to fight the urge not to laugh.
"Do you know what you'll get if you do that?" Eragon shook his head.
"Maybe she'll see sense at last."
"Shall I show you what you'll get?" Eragon didn't like the sound of this, but nodded, thinking back to Saphira's words.
"Put your hands behind your back." He did so "And close your eyes." He did that too, Solembum raised his eyebrows, Angela was leaning closer to Eragon's face, as if to kiss him. Eragon could feel Angela's warm breath on his face, he wanted nothing more than to open his eyes but did what he was told and kept them screwed shut. Angela came so close to Eragon that their noses were almost touching. Closer…. Closer….. She tilted her head slightly… Eragon was waiting, eyes closed, wringing his hands behind his back. Angela breathed in one final time, and then…. She slapped him, hard, around the face. Eragon was so shocked that he couldn't react fast enough. She kneed him in the stomach and he was sent to the ground. Angela put her foot on his throat.
"That. That is what you'll get if you go around demanding people's love." Eragon clutched his stomach and writhed. Angela finally spoke,
"Now, do you want to know what to do?"
