"Umm," She tucked some hair behind her ears. She bent down, finding one shoe. She went to a bush and searched for the other. She followed the track while Eragon and the Murtagh followed suite. "It should be around here soon."

"You know girl, this will cost your life if you dont find it." She slipped on her shoe but that only make the cuts irritated so she remained barefoot.

"And what if I dont want to show it to you anymore?" She stopped, holding her chin up high in mockery.

"Dont kid yourself. Now get going." In one swift motion he pushed her back around and nudged her with his little bow and arrow.

She could have ran, she had though about it, but eyeing the nice little bow strung through Eragons baldric, over his back, he could have that whipped out and have her shot before she could say 'I want to go home'.

She looked around, rolling her eyes because everything looked the same.

"Theres got to be something that I can remember.." She mumbled to herself. "OW!" She felt a sharp jab in her back. She turned to see Murtagh with his bow out. "What the hell was that for?!" She cried out in outrage.

"What are you saying- anything you say, say outloud."

"Ohhh hahaha suuuuure." She mocked. She turned around and this time spoke outloud. "I wonder how many blows to where if hurts will it take to get you down?" She peered over her shoulder giving them the eye and smirked. She gave a confident walk, knowing that they were watching her.

"Next shoe." She scooped the shoe up as she walked along. "THERE!" She screamed. She went to run but was picked up my soft yet strong hands. She looked over her shoulder to see the blonde boy.

"Wh..what now?" He grabbed her in a fireman hold. When she tried to turn her accidently grabbed her rear and she shot up, giving him a look. She could see he blushed easily.

"Cant take any chances, you know the way they speak of this egg."

"What do you think I want to do with it? I want to eat it." She nodded her head in a 'duh' way. She spotted Murtagh going and poking it with a stick. She only noticed Eragon was laughing when she turned her head. "What...can I ask..if so funny?" He put her down and she fixed her outfit.

"You cant eat that kind of egg.." He grabbed at his stomache, doubling over.

"Sure you cant, you just want it all to yourself!" This caused him to laugh even more. She bent to the side like she was stretching to peer up at him as he laughed. His face suddenly turned serious and in a fluid motion swung his hand and hit the back of her leg. She buckled and fell to the ground.

"Okay, NOW THAT WAS RUDE!" She struggled to grab his leg but he just chuckled as she tried. She pulled her necklace out of her shirt and he eyed her. She looked up at him, and she licked the point of the necklace. She drove it deep into his leg. He gave a cry and fell beside her.

She put her hand on his chest and teased, climbing ontop of him.

"You think that just because you live all alone here in the forest," She gave a cry as he overpowered her and now was ontop of her. She moved her legs with discomfort.

"Excuse me for trying to help people." She groaned, pushing back,and successfully getting back ontop of him after alot of effort and a bite mark he had to show.

"Helping who, all youve done so far is just," She leaned in close, "Alot of stress. She felt a force grab her from behind her but Eragon was still holding her wrists so she had no way of letting go no matter what she did. So she drove her elbows back, causing Eragon to let go and she stood up, blowing the hair out of her face.

"Alright there missy." Murtagh grunted as he picked her up and threw her over his shoulder once again. She looked back at Eragon and stuck out her tongue. "Eragon use this cloth," he threw a burlap sack at him, "fetch the egg, just dont touch it." He gave a sort of narrow eyed glare at Shayy but she just tilted her head and supported her chin with her hands and watched him walk stubbornly towards the egg. he kicked the twigs in his way. While she was swinging her legs, she suddenly realized.

"ERAGON!" Murtagh shot his head away from her, and she held her hand out. She struggled but he held tight. "My shoes-Get my shoes!"

"Oh, Ill get youre shoes alright." He Looked at her in the distance, hands reaching out like it was for him. He grabbed her shoes and the egg. He was scared, he admitted it to himself but to show that he was scared infront of Murtagh and this new girl, he would be seen as a coward. All this training, he wouldnt let it go to waste if he were to quit at that moment.

Shayy made faces at Eragon all the walk back. it was starting to get dark and he just kept his serious look the whole way. But, he did laugh at one face she made, it was more cute that funny actually. All he did was give a chuckle but stopped immediately when Murtagh peered around, eyebrow raised.

"I actually made you laugh." Shayy whispered resting on the cold plate on Murtaghs back. "Its nice when you laugh." She was about to say but stopped herself at how silly that would sound.

They were at the camp and passed the fire. She gasped, It seemed like Eragons eyes had changed colour. She shook it off and looked around. She was set back down on her feet but was briskly grabbed once again. She stared up confused at the young Murtagh. He had a good grip on her wrists.

"Oh by the way, ehres your shoes." Eragon threw them at her, but she tried to catch them but Murtagh had a pretty good hold. She followed them as the landed...right in the...fire. She cursed to the side. But she had other problems to worry about.

"Time to go to sleep."

"Sure..?" She looked around confused like she could find the answers to his weird sayings. "Are you gonna let go now..?" Her eyes still travelled.

"No." He tilted his head in fake mockery. "Eragon go get me that wrap."

"Youre not thinking of what I think you thinking of." She looked Eragon up and down and tried to pull away from Murtagh but he pulled back twice as hard. She could feel her her wrists bruising.

"Whats he thinking of?" She blurted, scared. Eragon looked down and went to get what looked like a peice of leather from one of his horses. She still had clicked in her head what he was going to do. She eyed a post beside her. Sort of like a 't' with two lines across instead of one.

It was only when she looked back did she notice that Eragon had already come back and Murtagh had let go. As the realization hit her face, he grabbed her once more before she could run and started wrapping the leather tightly in criss-crossed around her wrists. She looked up pleadingly but none of them would look her in the eye.

"Youre not seriously thinking of leaving me out here are you?"

"How do I know you wont try something at night."

"Excuse me," She pointed with a finger. "I am still a virign if thats what youre implying." Murtagh stopped tying and looked at her. Eragon looked down nervously even in the dark she could still see him blushing.

"Im talking about attacking us." he stated, returning to his duty once again.

"Oh, I wont, I wont, I promise. N-NO PLEASE!" She pleaded as they walked away. Eragon lingered around for a few seconds but he too retreated. "No! SOMEONE HELP! You guys, you can even pat me down, I promise I wont." Her screams were ignored.

She fell asleep for a slight moment but was awaken by the sounds of the wild. She jumped up onto the beam.

"H-hello? Is anyone there?" No answer. She was starting to get scared and hugged herself. Then she saw the blonde.

"Oh...Its just you." She pretended like she wasnt happy to see the beachhead Eragon. He gave a short smile. She eyed the fluffy looking rag in his hands. It dragged against the floor. She raised an eyebrow and sat up.

"I thought," He huffed, walking behind her and throwing the blanket over her shoulders. "You might be cold." He paused, she smiled. "Well ill just leave now." He went to walk away but Shayy held out her tied hands.

"No!" He stopped, giving her a weird look. "Im lonely," She looked around. "I want someone to talk to." She wondered what reaction she would get. Did her words sound to needy? She wants...she wants.

He hesitated but came back to stand infront of her.

"What do you want to talk about?" She paused, looking up at the clear starry sky. She held a sort of wing out, inviting him. "What?"

"Come." She insisted with tone. He gave a look. "I dont bite." She chuckled. He came and sat down on the beam, grabbing some blanket, she jerked a little and rolled her eyes to the side. This guy didnt know his own strength.

She sat swinging her legs, and staring up at the sky. She peeked at him out of the corner of her eye to see he was just staring at her. She kept glancing at him, hinting for him to stop, but he would turn away and then go right back to it.

"You know," Her voice startled him and he jumped. "We dont have nights like this back where I come from?"

"Alot of hunters and no queit nights?"

"Sure..." She gave a confused look. "I was talking about the sky," She pointing, bringing the blanket with her. "The city...it has alot of lights and you cant see the stars."

"this..city...is it your hometown or something?" She looked him in the eys this time, he actually stared back, which was surprising.

"You could say that." She let the words roll of her tongue, not breaking her stare once. When she blinked he turned away and she cursed to the side that she had broken their connection. "So...tell me about yourself."

"There really isnt nothing to tell." He leaned forward on the beam, hands gripping them deathly.

"Oh really? Everyone had a story. Whats yours?"

"Well.." He took a deep breath. "I was a hunter, raised by my uncle you know," She nodded, not wanting to say anything and interrupt him, "He taught me everything I know. But hes dead now, and nothing to me." He looked up, like he was trying to keep from crying. Shayy just kept her mouth shut. But she couldnt resist.

"Im so sorry.."

"I am too." He looked at her briefly but then looked away.

"Well then how did you meet your nice little buddy who tied me up." She said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Just...around." She knew when to shut up, he was holding back information.

"Cool. Hes a keeper, now dont let him go." She chuckled at her own joke, smiling big when Eragon looked at her.

After a long paused he said, "You know I have an extra sleeping bag, you could sleep there if you feel more-"

"No no," She held out her hands. "Your friend wouldnt like that very much."

"Well, I cant just let you stay out here with wolves out there." She winced at the words.

"Okay, see, I was okay untill you said wolves." She clenched her teeth.

"Sorry. But, why dont I tie you up by where im sleeping, I just sleep under my dragons wings anyways."

"You sleep under your dragon?"

"Yes, you should meet her, I bet shed like you." he stuck two fingers in his mouth and whistled. The dragon opened its yellow eye and raised its head. Suddenly it was like she had someone speaking into each ear.

'Hello little one'

"WOAH!" She grabbed her head. "Did you just speak?"

"No." He smiled showing his beautiful smile for once. "Youre just hearing her talk to you." She lowered her hands in awe.

"She...she...talks?"

"Well, you just heard for yourself so," He nibled on his lips.

"But what are you going to say when Murtagh finds out? I mean he cant be that stupid, right?" He simply just chuckled, looking down at the ground and then back at her.

"Ill tell him hes getting old and becoming forgetful." WIth only those words, Shayy jumped of the beam and waiting for Eragon to untie her. He did the unthinkable he hovered his hands over the ropes and uttered a few words she couldnt catch. She looked at him as he worked and saw the rope unravel. She shook it off as she was tired, but didnt forget it.

He brought her over to the next beam, as she rubbed her wrists, seeing them red and cut. He glanced at her, wincing everytime she lifted a finger to the wounds.

"Here," he held her hands softly. She almsot stumbled if she wasnt holding onto the beam. His hands were so warm considering that the weather was so cold.

"Waise Heil." Was all he said and her skin felt like it was on fire. But he seemed to have to his soul sucked out of him as he raised his head and she watched as her wounds healed. He tilted but he regained his balance.

"Thank...you?" She mumbled, as he tied her wrists once more but she tugged the blankets closer to her. She sat on the perch and watched as Eragon made his cozy little corner in the dragons wings.

"Goodnight." He said to her, looking weak and lay his head down. She felt her eyes closing.

'Goodnight' They shot open.
