A/N: Now I know it has been a long time since I last updated but I had so may things going on. I do apologize for the long wait and I do apologize again for this chapter not being so long but . . . review anyway!
"So how long are you planning on staying here?" Oromis asked Eragon as he took a sip of his steaming herbal tea. Eragon looked at his tea not feeling any urge to drink it but forced a sip down to warm his body.
"Not very long, as much as I would like to Murtagh knows where we are and so the King knows where we are." Oromis shook his head and crinkled his eyebrows and said,
"I still do not know how he could possibly enter Ellesmera." Eragon nodded and took another taste of the sweet tea. He looked out the window and saw the sun shining brightly in the late morning and then a big green flash came into view.
Leona's here, Eragon thought and got up from his seat to greet her but she was already at the door. Eragon quickly embraced her and said,
"Did you sleep well last night? Was Galron alright? Did Murtagh come back?" Leona hushed him by putting her lips against his and that would shut up any man.
"Eragon, I'm fine and so is Galron. Don't worry." She smiled and Eragon was relived from all the ideas that flowed through his head all night. He smiled and said,
"Want to take a walk?" Leona smiled and nodded as they went out the door. Their dragons followed through the forest that gave out a light calm feeling. They did not hold hands although Eragon was longing to do so. Leona was focused on the beautiful reflection through the woods of the sun. It was too quiet so Eragon said,
"So do you know when we should leave?" Leona turned to him and said,
"Leave? This soon? I thought that we would stay for at least another week." Eragon was surprised at what she said and said,
"Well I thought that since Murtagh invaded the forest that it is not safe here." Leona shook her head and said,
"I'm fine Eragon, I . . . " All of the sudden Leona grabbed her head as if she had a severe headache. Eragon was alarmed and grabbed her just before she was about to faint.
"No, your not fine, here sit down," Eragon said as he led her to a rock to sit on. Leona sat on the rock and said continuously,
"Eragon, I'm fine really." But Eragon did not believe her. Then Galron came close to her and lied down beside her with his eyes glowing. Ten Leona's eyes went wide and they started to glow as well then she closed them with her dragon following her. Eragon was worried and Saphira came behind him to see what was happening. Eragon held Leona close and said almost yelling,
"Leona! Wake up! Get up! Leona . . . please!"
--------------------------------
"Where . . . where am I?" Leona found herself in a different forest. It seemed much brighter and the most different thing about was that Eragon was not there with her. She sat up from the grassy ground and saw Galron laying down next to her awake as well trying to find out where he was.
Leona? Where are we? Leona looked around and said,
It looks familiar, but . . . I just don't know where we are. Galron, we should . . . she was interrupted by a powerful voice,
"So, you named your dragon after me? I'm honored." Leona could not believe what she was hearing. She knew that voice but she couldn't believe it. She turned around and saw a man with long wavy dark brown hair. He had on a beautiful dark green tunic on with a matching green cloak that gaped gracefully around him. He also had on arm braces that had elf designs on it. Leona then looked at his face to find a smile and the same eyes she had on.
"Father!" Leona exclaimed as she ran to her father with open arms. He laughed and grabbed her tightly. Leona felt tears coming down her face but she made no effort to wipe them off. The both let go of each other as Leona said,
"Why am I here? I didn't die, did I?" Her father laughed and said,
"No, Sariana, you are still alive on earth but you mind is in her in heaven." Leona crinkled her eyebrows and said,
"I am very glad to see you father but why have you brought me here?" Her father's smile never faded from his face and he said,
"The last battle, Sariana, is near and you are not prepared. This boy, Eragon, yes?" Leona smiled and nodded and her father said,
"He is an amazing rider no doubt about that, but he does not have enough training or enough experience to teach you what I can." Leona's eyes got wide as she said,
"So you are going to be my trainer?" Her father nodded and said,
"Correct, I will teach you how to be one with your dragon. How to fly in the most difficult ways. Swords play that you thought would be impossible to achieve. Magic you may never thought had existed. And of course all three put together and you have got yourself Galbatorix's greatest challenge." Leona was excited to learn all of the new things and said,
"When do we start?" He looked to her and said,
"Not until a couple of days because I can see a young man down there is waiting to have his "Leona" back, yes?" She blushed as he laughed and said,
"So you do have a boyfriend? And a fine choice too, let me tell you; he has a lot of care for you. So be good to him because I know he will be good to you." Leona smiled but everything was slowly going dark she tried to reach for his father but she couldn't but she finally heard his voice say,
"Sariana? Did you tell Gelmir what I said to you?" Leona sulked and said,
"I am sorry father but I have not." She heard her father gave a slight chuckle as he said,
"Make sure you tell him that, it is very important." Everything went black and she tried to call out to her father but nothing happened until she saw that she was in a different forest that looked quite familiar.
----------------------------------
"Leona! Thank god your alright!" Eragon said as he pulled Leona close to him. She clung onto him as well as he said,
"What happened to you?" Leona smiled and loosened her grip and said,
"I saw my father again, Eragon! And he said that he was going to train me to learn to be a dragon rider. And I will see him again in a few days. Oh! And Eragon he really likes you, he knows that you are my boyfriend and he is happy for it." Eragon smiled and held her again. Then he helped her up and they continued their walk and this time they were holding hands.
--------------------------------
Leona looked at herself in the mirror just before she was about to leave to meet Eragon for a night flight. She was wearing a green dress and a heavy dark cloak and grabbed Gilthrim and left with Galron outside. They walked a bit talking about their wonders of what they will learn until Galron became alert.
Stay back! He commanded and she did what she was told. She hid behind a tree but knew she should be out there protecting her dragon. Once she ran out she felt a large hand grabbing her neck and pushing her against a large oak. Galron roared and tried to reach her but another dragon jumped up and pinned him down.
"Your looking awfully pretty tonight. Going to see you Eragon tonight, am I right?" Leona looked at him and knew it was Murtagh. She struggled as hard as she could to get out of his grip but she couldn't get out.
"Murtagh, please! Let me go now! Why do you have to do this? Just leave me be!" Murtagh eyes softened along with his grip but just as she was about to escape he slammed her harder against the tree and said in a vicious voice,
"If you want Eragon alive, you will listen to every damn word I will tell you!"
