The loud sound of wings, caught Eragon's attention with a smile, " Sounds like they have returned." the dark haired rider got to his feet happily to see his half brother returned safely. But as he walked to the door, he stopped at the sight of a soaked Murtagh and a dripping Thorn. The blue she-dragon let out a laugh making Eragon smirk slightly.

" You two are soaked." he chuckled as the black haired rider walked by him glaring. The red male walked by them with a strange look in his red eyes, that gave Saphira a slight shiver. As the two riders' yelled and got in their silly argument, the red dragon spoke through their minds making everyone freeze.

' The rumor is true...'

His words made Eragon growl, his fists clenched tightly his knuckles turning white. He turned his head to the red beast, his blue eyes burning with anger and fear.

" Impossible..It-" Before he could finish he was interrupted by Murtagh, " It's true Eragon…" he called softly as he pulled out the blanket from his bag, " And..this…" he let go of a corner and the egg shells hit the floor. The room grew silent at the sight, Arya stood up and walked over and got to her knees as she laid her hands on the broken shell. Her eyes wide in shock, as she felt her hands trembling at they held the large piece in her hands. Saphira growled loudly her tail thrashing as she stood from her resting place, her sapphire eyes burning with a deep rage. Her rider, slammed his fist on the table cursing.

" THIS IS-...Dammit!" he growled pushing his hand through his brown curls, his arm shaking from slight pain from hitting the glass table. Arya looked at him and walked to him, " Eragon...What is he isn't like his father..", Murtagh gulped at her words making everyone look at him with more worry.

" That's just it.." Murtagh whispered softly trying to finished but his dragon did for him, ' It's a girl...'. Arya looked at them and shook her head, " W...What..", Eragon growled loudly, " It is still the same..", he glared at them, " Whoever it is..will be brought here to suffer punishment along with the others before." he turned and walked away with Saphira following right behind him, the doors slamming shut behind them. Arya looked down at the shell, tears in her eyes for the child who was now in the rage path of her lover. Murtagh looked down with a sigh, " I pray it doesn't come to that.." he called to the young Elf queen. She raised her eyes to his, the clear tears rolled down her cheeks and nodded slowly and soon disappeared out the door with her dragon.

Thorn looked down at his rider, he rubbed his head on his rider's back softly to calm him. Murtagh looked back and smiled at him laying his hand on his dragon's snout and rubbed it slightly.

" Come on Thorn… Lets go to bed.." he smiled slightly, " Hopefully Eragon will come of his senses... "

The light of the sun shined down through the holes in the roof of the tent, a soft gentle breeze slowly pushed into the opening. A small moan escaped Odette's throat as she felt the warm sweet air of the Spine, stretching out on the bed of cloth. Slowly opening her eyes, slowly adjusting herself once again to the light surrounding her in its warm embrace. Covering her eyes with her hands as she sat up, jumping slightly at the weight on lap looking down and smiled softly. Her hands against Alana's smooth scales, giggling softly as she cuddled herself closer to her. A small cough caught her attention to the entrance, she turned to see the Orc leader standing there looking at her with a soft smile on his face.

" I see you have awakened, Odette." he called to her softly, making her smile slightly, pulling back her white- silver hair out of her face as she nodded. Her silver-blue eyes staring at him, the fear gone from her eyes as she looked around her.

" Thank you for allowing us to sleep here.." she called out softly as she covered her dragon with a silk sheet. As he walked to her side, resting his hand on her shoulder looking down at her .

" Come… Let's get you two some food." and right at those words the hatchet shot her little head up. Her blue eyes shining happily as her voice rang thought Odette's head calling out, ' Food!' , making her laugh at the young one's excitement. Giggling more as she stood to her feet, the small creature climbed up her belly to her shoulder wrapping herself around her neck. Odette shook her head smiling at her, rubbing her cheek on Alana's small head. Odette smiled softly as she and the Orc Leader, " What is your name? So I don't call you 'Sir' or "leader' all the time..". This question caused him to laugh, looking down at her with a soft grin, she glared softly not understanding why he way laughing.

" My name is Bolg.", he chuckled softly as they walked out of the tent. Her eyes widened as she looked around the camp, it looked more alive and happy then when she first arrived. Alana looked around, ' It looks alot better now..' , Odette nodded at her. She gasped softly as she looked down as young children ran by her laughing as they played her games. Odette smiled softly and watched them, looking back to Bolg as he held his hand to her and lead her to another tent. As they walked inside little Alana's eyes grew wide as she looked around the tent in wonder.

' FOOOOOD!', she called out loudly in her thoughts her voice ringing in Odette's ear as she opened her wings and flapped slightly making an attempt at flying. Odette laughed as she grabbed her dragon around her little belly, the dragon whined and wiggled in defeat looking back at her master with huge eyes. The girl laughed softly and kissed her white creature's head, ' Just wait Alana...Food will come soon.' she thought to her for the first time. The dragon gave her a toothy smile, her tail wagging slightly like a dogs, Bolg laughed at this. Odette looked up and saw a young Orc, he looked almost her age he looked at her with grey eyes. They were unreadable as they turned to Bolg, " Morning Leader.", he called softly with a nod of the head.

The boy smiled slightly as other looked at the girl and her young dragon, one young orc walked to her holding a bowl of meat. Odette smiled softly at him and giggled at Alana slowly crawled down her arm near the bowl.

' Alana..don't take his food.'

' I just wanna sniff it…' , the young hacklet sniffed at the bowl with glee as her tail wagged making the child giggle. Odette smiled softly as the child gave a piece of meat to the small dragon, Alana took it happily chewing on the meat happily. The child gently rubbed his hand on Alana's small head, as he looked up giving her a playful grin. She mouthed thank you softly to him, before his mother took him away telling him not to talk to strange ones. The small lizard stuck out her tongue slightly, as she watched them leave.

' I'm not that strange!', she huffed softly as her tail twitching slightly as she crawled back around Odette's neck softly. The girl giggled softly as she rubbed her cheek against the small creature's head.

'Alana, its okay. They just don't know us very well.' she whispered into the mind, as they continued to explore the camp slowly. Trees growing tall above them, as if the are touching the skies. Odette smiled softly as she played with dragon's small tail as she thought softly to herself.

' I Will Be Strong..'

' No, WE will be strong.'
