A/N: I know it has been quite a while since I've updated, well the reason was because I was on vacation at the beach YEAH. But now I'm back and here is my next chapter. Chapter 4…Oh wait, before I forget 'hoekom nie' means why not… LIGHTS…CAMERA…ACTION!

Chapter 4

" Look the boy's waking up"

" Finaly" a girl mumbled. Eragon groaned, quite loudly, as he opened his eyes. He squinted in the bright light when he noticed a hairy, long eared figure hanging over him. He jumped upright from shock and felt really foolish for doing so. The figure was nothing but a fluffy white rabbit. With large round eyes and a small pink nose. It kept staring at Eragon wriggling its nose and blinking.

" Get away" he yelled waving his hand at the rabbit. It hit the rabbit on the ear making him jump back with a powerful leap.

" Hey" before he quite knew what's going on he was yanked to his feet and stood face to face to a girl with bushy red hair and freckles on her nose. She held him by his collar; her eyes were dark and fiery.

"Who gave you the right to harm an innocent animal like that"

" It was an accident" she gave a small fake laugh

" Right and I've a fairy princess" Eragon pulled himself from her grip

" Look I don't know who you are, but it was an accident"

" Well prove it then" he opened his mouth when the rabbit jumped between them

" Stop this foolishness, fighting won't do you justice" Eragon eyes grew wide as he stared down at the rabbit

" You… talk"

" Well of course he talks Blondie" the girl snapped

" Giena" the rabbit gave the girl a stern look that made her fold her arms and turn away. He smiled when he looked up at Eragon.

" Yes as you might have noticed I'm a highly superior speaker"

" But you're a rabbit" Eragon could see that the rabbit seemed slightly taken aback by this statement.

" Technically I'm a hare. A cranius maximus hare. We are by far the most intelligent species of animals on this planet"

" What about werecats, they're quite smart as well" The hare nodded

" True, but if you might recall. A werecat is part human, so they aren't actually animals. If you catch my drift"

" That makes sense"

" Come on, Dilan, Just ask him so that we can go" Giena cried impatiently

" If you insist" the hare's face grew serious "Boy, do you perhaps know in which direction the Destroyers flew after demolishing the nearby village" Eragon felt his heart skip a large beat. He spun around and ran to the top of the hill only to look down at a place he could never dream of seeing. The burning remains of the village made him hate his brother with every bone in his body.

The guilt crept up to him. It was his fault this happened. If only he stopped them, if only. He sank to his knees. He's a complete failure in everything. He failed to receive Arya's love. He failed to destroy Murtagh. There was no other word to describe him. He's a failure.

" Poor Boy" he heard Dilan say, " Maybe you shouldn't have been so nasty towards him"

" Well he deserves it" Giena grumbled before she raised her voice to speak with Eragon " hey Blondie are you ever going to answer our question, or not" The anger boiled inside him as he rose to his feet.

" My name isn't Blondie" he turned and glared at her " It's Eragon"

" I don't care if you're name is Puffy the Magical unicorn" she snarled, " I asked you a question and I demand and answer"

" Why do you need to know" he raised his eyebrow

" Because"

" Because what"

" Because it's none of you're business"

" Please be quite both of you" Dilan yelled " look at yourselves. You're acting like a bunch of five year olds, fighting over some mindless garbage."

" He started it" Giena grumbled her arms folded

" I didn't" Eragon protested " You did and you know that"

" I don't actually care Blondie"

" It's Eragon" he said through grinded teeth. Dilan shook his head hopelessly

" Eragon could you please answer the question" Eragon shifted his eyes and met the hare's.

" Only if you tell me why you want to know" Dilan sighed and turned to look at Giena.

She had her arms folded. She considered this and nodded her head.

" Well you see Eragon. We use to live in a village as well. I lovely place full of peace and harmony, until the Destroyers arrived. Giena and I were away from the village when that happened and when we returned everything was gone. Everyone was gone as well…"

" That's when I decided I would have revenge on the destroyers" Giena continued her back towards them, but Eragon saw she was tense and he sensed the hate. " They took away my home my parents everything" she turned around, the determination in her eyes " I won't rest until they lie dead on the ground before me. They will regret the day they destroyed my village" she bolted her hands into fists " they will pay" An uneasy silence followed, Eragon was shocked by her power and her hatred, but the truth was he felt the same way.

" I don't know where they are" he told them " But I want to help you"

" How can you help us Blondie" Giena snapped, " You know nothing about them"

" Well for you're information I do" Eragon glared at her " The rider's name is Murtagh"

" We know that" she grumbled. Eragon blinked

" Well do you know, he's dragon's called Thorn"

" Well actually we do" Dilan informed him " We know many things about him and his dragon"

" We also know" a wide mischievous grin formed on Giena's face " That you are his brother and he betrayed you and stole you're sword. What a shame"

" What" he gasped, " How did you know"

" We just know okay"

" That's not the answer I wanted"

" I don't really care, but you haven't answered my question yet"

" What question" she rolled her eyes

" Do you really think you can help us destroy the destroyers, Blondie"

" For the last time my name is not Blondie and second" he smiled " I can"

" Oh really how"

" With the help of my friend"

" You mean you're dragon" he was annoyed by there wisdom about him and Murtagh "Saphira is it"

" How do you…never mind."

" Would you call her for us, if you won't mind" Dilan asked " If we had a dragon on our side that would change everything"

" Alright Saphira can you hear me" he stopped and listened, but heard nothing in return. "Come on Sahira answer me I'm not in the mood for games" No answer came and he felt his heart beat faster.

"Is something the matter boy" Dilan asked quite concerned

" I don't know" he replied before her tried once more, failing yet again. He felt the horror inside him as he thought of Saphira. She wasn't anywhere near him, her presence was gone. He couldn't sense her anymore and he knew something horrible happened.

" Why isn't you're dragon here yet" Giena asked in a mocking tone.

" Because something happened to her" he yelled " she's gone she won't come"

" Oh my" Dilan exclaimed, " That's just terrible. Is there anything we can do"

" I don't know. I don't know" he felt a small tear leak from his eye. He wiped it with the back of his hand and stared into the sky. Trying and trying again and again to contact her, but it's all in vein.

" Maybe the answer is in here" in a flash Giena pulled a rolled up parchment from his pocket. She opened it and read it through, for a moment he thought her face softened up, but she glared at him as she handed him the parchment. " This might come as a shock."

He blinked and looked at the parchment. He never saw it before and he was positive it wasn't his. Without hesitating he opened it and read a letter that will stick to his head for days to come

You might have noticed that you're precious dragon is no longer with you. That's because I took her and you will never see her again, for as long as you live. Don't feel bad. We might even have pity on you and let her be the one to kill you. Well actually we won't so don't get you're hopes up.

Your brother
