Era

Chapter 2

Disclaimer: I own nothing(except this laptop)

Era stared at the rock it was heavy for its size.

"What is it?" she asked

Yuaza shrugged and took the stone out of Era's hands the hit it with the butt end of her knife. "I don't know, but this stone hollow."

"So, what is it?"

"The question is who gets it?"

"Well I though of raiding this group so it should be mine."

" But I killed more soldiers so it's mine"

"Fine we share it."

"Okay" said Yuaza then she muttered "but it should be mine."

In response Era pushed her over. After that they broke out in to a fight which neither of them ended up winning. When they were finish beating the crap out of each other they put the food into the wagon. Then Era got into the driver's seat of the wagon as Yuaza rode on her horse leading Era's horse. They went down the road still towards Dras'Leona.

Sunset

Murtagh rode Thorn over the forest in between Uru'Baen and Dras'Leona. Where are they? He thought angrily

I don't know suggested his dragon Thorn then he started to laugh they could be lost.

Yeah. They are dumb enough to get lost on a clearly marked rode. Murtagh agreed then he saw something. Thorn take us down. I think I see something.

Thorn started to descend. As he did Murtagh saw what happened to the soldiers. Oh my god Murtagh thought.

Thorn answered it was a massacre.

Who did this? Not the Varden they would have taken capitives.

I don't know but who ever it was must have known what was in the wagon.

True but now I have to go back to Galbatorix and tell him that his only remaining dragon egg is missing!

Shouldn't you go after the thief?

No this how we can help the Varden without breaking our oath to Galbatorix.

Oh, good thinking.

Murtagh got back on Thorn and turned around left

The girl's camp

Era and Yuaza sat around their campfire too tired to talk when suddenly they heard aloud crack. They looked to where the noise was coming from, surprised to find it was coming from the stone. A hair line crack had appeared in the stone. The girls watched in awe as soon another crack appeared and then another one, then a small hole, and suddenly the stone exploded revealing a small creature.

"What is it?" Era asked in awe.

"I think it's a dragon."

"A dragon? As in a real live fire breathing, flying, the ones in legends dragon?"

"Yeah, a dragon!"

"Oh, I wonder if it's hungry."

"Good thinking, Era"

Era walked over to their food cache and took out a big slab of meat. Then she returned to where Yuaza waited with their dragon.

"You hold it while I feed it." Era told Yuaza. "Okay. On the count of three, one two, three" Yuaza grabbed the dragon and jumped back in pain. While Era held out her hand to the dragon, who instead of taking the meat it rubbed its head against Era's hand. Era jumped back also in pain. After what seemed an eternity to the girls the pain subdued and both girls had half of a gedwey ignasia on their hands.

"What happened?" asked a very confused Era.

"I don't know" answered an even more confused Yuaza.

They looked at each other for a moment then at their hands. The silence in the camp was quickly ended by a purring coming from the little blood red dragon. Era sighed and pushed her greasy black hair out of her face and started to feed the little thing.

The next morning Yuaza woke up to a little nose poking her in forehead. She opened her eyes to see the dragon was now the size of her cat that she left, it had been her familiar. Yuaza stood up and walked over to the food cache and just pulled out a whole steak, to tired to cut it she just gave it to the dragon who ate the whole thing. After that she woke Era up.

"Lovely morning," Era grumbled sarcastically as she rolled over.

"No Era you have to get up. There is a big problem that we have that we should probably talk about."

"And what might that be?"

"That." Yuaza said pointing to the dragon.

"Oh"

"Well, now what do we do?"

"Well, we don't go to Dras'Leona."

"Then where do we go?"

"I don't know."

"How about to the Varden?"

"Where are they?"

"I don't know, but maybe we could get some directions and supplies at Kuasta,"

"Kuasta? But that place is weird."

"So? It would be a good place for us, you would blend right in."

Era responded by throwing her knife at Yuaza who with lightening speed grabbed it out of air.

"Anyway, to Kuasta then to the Varden."

"Yeah to the Varden."
