Okay I have writer's block for this story but I'm writing in it anyway so I apologize if this chapter is lame. (Sigh)

Disclaimer: I do not own Eragon of the JL but both are awesome.
Legends Book 1, Sun and Moon Chapter 3: Alliance with Justice
POV: Eragon
I sighed tiredly as we flew over the vast kingdom of men. We had crossed the great waters and back but still there was no sign of the rider of light and dark. What the heck was that supposed to mean anyway? Light and dark? No rider can have two dragons. Maybe his dragon is two colors or something strange like that. Oh boy. This was really beginning to tax on my patience and strength.
"We need help Eragon." Arya told me from behind.
"From who. I cannot risk exposing Saphira to the humans."
"There are those who can help us."
I instantly got her hint and smiled mischievously.
"I have the perfect way to get their attention."

In the Justice League Watchtower
An alarm sounded in the watchtower alerting the six members currently running through the hallways that there was yet another battle to be fought. They burst into the monitor room and ran to the hero on duty who had on one of his trademark sour faces.
"You are not going to believe this." He growled as he brought up a picture on the screen. "You know that dragon everyone's been yammering about? It's currently perched on the top of the Chrysler building."
"Are you serious?" Wally spurted out as he gazed at the satellite feed of a bright blue dragon on top of one of New York greatest buildings.
Batman's sour face turned into his deadly Bat-glare as he stared at the scarlet speedster. Wally shrank back and hid behind Clark as he caught sight of the look.
"It doesn't seem to be hurting anyone." Clark said as he studied the picture.
"I know but look closer. On her back see them."
The group leaned in closer trying to get a better look.
"I don't see anything." Shayera said with a shake of her head.
"You have got to be kidding me." Bruce growled with a shake of his own head.
"I'm not in the mood for another one of your "Where's Waldo" games Bruce."
Bruce brought up a clearer picture of the dragon and zoomed in on its back and it revealed two people perched on the dragon's back. In a well cared for saddle no less.
"Someone's trying to get our attention."
"Are those...people?"
"No, they're gorillas."
"We should get down there." Clark said as he turned, scarlet cape sweeping behind him as he left the room.
"You're grumpy today." Diana commented as she followed Bruce out the door.
"I'm having a bad day." Bruce growled with a distinct 'leave me alone' in his tone.
The group set another hero on monitor duty and told them to monitor the mission they were going on with great care and send backup should things go south. They then made their way to the javelin and took off for New York.
"Just out of curiosity, why is it always New York?" Wally's jaw snapped shut as he received yet another glare from Batman.
"Because it's the biggest city with one of the largest populations in the world." J'onn said in his stoic voice.
The rest of the trip was silent and it wasn't long before they landed in a clearing in central park afterwards making their way through the city to the Chrysler building. They made their way up to the great blue dragon to talk with whoever was atop it.
"What are you doing?" Clark said, arms crossed as he hovered slightly above the pair.
"Getting your attention without bringing harm." The man said.
The dragon growled as it turned its head to look upon the man.
"I agree completely Saphira. We should talk in a more secluded area." Without any other words the dragon lifted its great feathered wings and leapt off into the air, earning a gasp from the crowd gathered below.
"Great. Now we have to go all the way back." Flash muttered.
"The trip was no picnic for me either Wally." Bruce growled from where Diana held him as she hovered.
The group made their way back to the javelin where the dragon and its riders were waiting for them. It kneeled down an the two hopped off and made their way towards the group.
"My name is Eragon and I came here on a desperate mission given to me by my King." The man explained as he neared. "This is Arya," He motioned towards the pointed eared woman beside him. "and Saphira." He motioned towards the dragon and she bowed her head in acknowledgment. "We need your help."
"With what?" Clark said taking on his role as the League's ambassador.
"To find a Rider. The Rider of Light and Dark though I have no idea what that could mean. The Ra'zac have found Morgul, the son of Galbatorix and convinced him to follow in his father's footsteps. Galbatorix was a cruel King who took control of my land, Alegesia. But Morgul means to take not just Alegesia but the entire world along with it and believe me, teamed with the Ra'zac, he has the power to do so. No even you could stop him. He seeks a stone. It was hidden in man's world along with two dragon eggs, twins. Supposed to hatch at the exact same time. The stone of the Eclipse contains magical power and knowledge beyond imagination. If he finds it then no one can stop him."
"Wait, wait. You just come here, land on the freaking Chrysler building, and expect us to help you?" Shayera shot out as she brought her mace up to rest on her shoulder.
"This is your world too is it not? I have already spent weeks looking for this rider and can waste no more time. Do you wish to save your world or not?"
"Let me get this straight. You're evil ex-King's son is trying to find a stone with unlimited magical powers, which for some demented reason you did not destroy, and the only one who can stop him is a Rider who can supposedly ride two dragons, and you come here telling us that if we don't help then the world will end? Of course we're going to help. Dumbass." Batman growled.
"Bruce!" Clark cried as he caught the curse word.
"I never said anything about him riding two dragons." Eragon said suspiciously.
"Two eggs? Rider of light and dark? Please it wasn't that hard to figure out."
"There's something suspicious about that one." Saphira told Eragon as she growled at Bruce.
"Oh hush up missy."
"You seem to be the smarter, if less social, one from this group. If you would accompany me on Saphira and Arya can go with the rest of your group. We need to get going. I sense the Ra'zac are near."
"Don't say anything stupid." Clark hissed after agreeing for Bruce, he got a glare for doing so.
Eragon watched the group leave before turning to Bruce with narrowed eyes.
"I never said anything about Saphira being female either." He hissed.
"I do my research."
"I don't know how much you know or even how you know it but if you interfere with my mission you'll regret it human."
"You're wish is my command all powerful rider." Bruce said as he bowed sarcastically to Eragon as the man turned and mounted his dragon.
Bruce leapt into the the air, cape following behind like and ominous black curse, and landed smoothly behind Eragon. Holding tight with his legs he refused to even touch Eragon and grabbed a hold of one of Saphira's neck spikes. She leapt into the air bringing her mighty wings down and in a whirlwind of playful air they were flying above the city. Bruce held on like an expert which Eragon noted in an invisible checklist he was making.
The flight was not silent though. Eragon spent the time explaining to Bruce about his country's history, about the stone, and the dragons that were sent along to protect it though Bruce was still angry at his people for not simply destroying the stone and preventing all of this.
"It was said that the Rider of Light and Dark would use the stone to fight the Ra'zac and Morgul." Eragon responded when he mentioned this.
"Still should have destroyed it."
"You're a ray of sunshine aren't you Bruce."
"Reach into my mind again and, a thousand feet in the air or not, I will knock you out of this saddle and keep hitting you until we hit the ground or Saphira saves you."
"How do you know of that ability?" Another check was added.
"How else would you be able to talk to her if not for some mental connection or telepathic ability?"
The rest of the ride was silent.
