I know I haven't written anything in a while, but I have been a very busy person and haven't been able to type. On top of all this I injured my hand ice skating or bowling. Even with this I am going to try and write an amazing chapter of Annabelle. Even though I like to pretend I own Eragon I don't. =( I would also appreciate getting more than 2 reviews.

Chapter 10 of Annabelle

Awakening

Eragon awoke to the sound of someone coughing. He slowly opened his eyes letting in a little bit of light. He then noticed that the back of his head was pounding. He opened his eyes a little bit more when he did this the pounding got worse. He quickly shut his eyes so that no light came in. He wanted nothing more than to fall back into sleep and to wake up when nothing was hurting, but something didn't feel right. He again slowly opened his eyes careful not to let in too much light. He thought back to last thing he remembered. It was him telling Saphira to fly Annabelle to the village. Eragon knew that Saphira would never risk exposure like that and he wondered if Annabelle had gotten help. Eragon searched his conscious for Saphira. He finally found her in the Spine.

Saphira, are you there?

Yes, Eragon I'm here and I'm glad to see you're awake.

What happen, where's Annabelle, Garrow.

Slow down Eragon. Saphira laughed. You pasted out Dragging Garrow to Carvahall and I felt you fall and turned around to help you. Hurst heard you screaming and came to see what was wrong. I put Annabelle beside you and fled to the spine. Now Garrow and Annabelle are at Hurst.

Ok thank you Saphira

It was nothing Eragon.

Eragon again opened his eyes. He slowly lifted his head to get a better look at where he was. He was in a one-room hutthat had plants and Herbs everywhere. He knew he had been her before but he couldn't pin-point exactly when. Just then a lady walked through the door. She turned around and saw Eragon sitting up on the couch. At that point Eragon knew exactly who she was, Gertrude, the town healer.

"Oh, you're up." Gertrude ran over to Eragon.

"Yes, I feel fine I would like to go see Annabelle and Garrow now." Eragon started to stand up, but was pushed down by a pair of hands.

"Not until I check you and make sure you are ok." She then lifted Eragon to his feet with surprising strength, and started to check every bit of Eragon and finally let him go. Eragon walked along the street wondering how bad Annabelle was and Garrow. He kept walking and finally he arrived at Hurst's. Eragon walked up to the door and knocked and waited. It was Elain who came to the door.

"Oh Eragon, we knew you would be here sooner or later. Your room has been ready for two day; I think we need to give Gertrude her bed back. Well don't just stand there, come in come in." She stepped aside and let Eragon come through the door. She led Eragon into the kitchen and told him to sit in the chair, "Hurst is out in the Barn doing god knows what. Someone has been waiting to see you. HE'S HERE!!!!" Eragon heard the sound of footfalls come down the stairs and around the corner. The next thing Eragon knew he was being tackled.

"ERAGON, ERAGON I KNEW YOU WERE OK I JUST KNEW IT!!!!" Annabelle screamed, "I LOVE YOU DON"T YOU EVER LEAVE ME AGAIN, PLEASE ERAGON PLEASE DON'T." Eragon was not prepared for her to start crying. He hugged her back.

"I won't Annabelle I never will." Eragon hugged her tighter. Her pulled her away and looked her up and down. There was a bandage wrapped around her head and a cast or something on her ankle. She didn't look to bad. Eragon pulled her back into a hug never wanting to let go. This time it was Annabelle who pulled away.

"Eragon you're crushing me." Eragon laughed for the first time in a while. For a few moments everything melted away and the all the pain disappeared. Then the pain came back and he remembered Garrow.

"Where's Garrow." Eragon asked.

"He's upstairs, let me take you there." Elain took his hand and helped him up. She led him to the front room again and to the bottom of the stairs. "Are you sure you can make it up the stairs Eragon it can wait a few days?"

"No I want to do this now." Eragon stared up the long ascend up the stairs with Annabelle in tow and grimaced in pain with each step he took. He was more hurt than he thought he was, but he kept climbing up. He finally made it to the stop of the stairs and sat down to rest at the top of the steps and took a couple deep breaths.

"Eragon are you ok, you look pail." Annabelle asked him, she looked worried. Eragon quickly nodded his head and stood up. Annabelle didn't seem convinced, but she got up and walked down the hall. Eragon followed her. It seemed like he would never make it to the far room. He just kept walking on and on he wondered if he would ever make it.

What seemed like forever later they were finally at the room and Annabelle slowly opened the door. What Eragon saw there made him gasp and fall to his knees he had never seen anything so horrible in his life.
