Chapter 7: the talk

Disclaimer: I still unfortunately for me don't own Eragon.

Yuaza rode Barzul at a full gallop and could still not keep up with Era riding above her on Agni. Then suddenly another dragon appeared out of no where and rammed into Agni and sent Era flying off his back but luckily Agni caught her before she fell the hundred feet to the ground. Yuaza started to breathe again when she saw Era climb back on Agni and started to yell at the other rider. Then she heard in her head from Era. Yuaza are you listening?

Yuaza replied Yes, I saw what happened are you okay? I take it that it's Eragon and not Galboratrix.

Then a new voice butted in their conversation and said Yes, this is Eragon. Who is this?

This is Yuaza. Era's best friend and fellow rider.

Oh so you are both riders?

Yes. Yuaza and Era thought at the same time.

Then Era thought Why don't we land so then you can get the whole story? Then if you would so kind we would like to help the Varden.

Okay thought Eragon. Yuaza watched the two dragons land a mile in front of her she pressed her knees into Barzul and they flew over the last mile. When she reached there she quickly dismounted Barzul, untacked him and walked over to where Era and Eragon sat waiting for her. She sat down in between the two. Era was the first to speak " So, as you both know I'm Era daughter of someone unknown, this is Yuaza daughter of Trina, and you are?'

Eragon cleared his throat and said "Eragon son of Morzan, but adopted son of Garrow." He was surprised that neither of the girls in front of him seemed shaken at the thought of who his parent was. "How did you get the egg?"

Era spoke first "We ran away from home. On the road we ran it to a group of soldiers. We were hungry so we attacked them and took their food, in a wagon that they had we found a library of books on dragons, and the egg. Soon after that it hatched and then we both touched the dragon at the same time so now we are both his dragon riders. After that a red dragon attacked us but because the rider did not know we could use magic we were able to bind the rider and find out some information. That's how we knew about Murtagh."

Yuaza sensed that Eragon tensed at the metion of his brother so she butted in "You might like to know that he does not want to fight you." Eragon gave her a look that said sure. So she continued "He called Galboratrix a pig and said he should be fighting for the Varden."

At this Eragon looked hopeful then he said "Thank you, you have just restored some hope for the Varden."

Yuaza smiled to herself. Then she felt like she should say something inquisitive but she had no idea what. Then Era said "So how did you get your dragon?"

Eragon looked surprised "You don't know? I thought the Varden had spread my legend from here to Carvahall?"

"Well we did here a rumor about a knew dragon rider but we don't get much news in Daret." Yuaza admitted.

"You lived in Daret? Why did you leave? I thought that would be the safest place in Algaesia. When Brom and I rode through there the men didn't even let us in the town. We had to wait outside till a boy went and got what we wansted,"

"You knew Brom, the killer of Morzan? Wow you are so fortunate! I would give up my Thorn just to talk with him for five minutes!" Era said amazed.

"Why is your horse named Thorn? The only other Thorn I know is Murtagh's dragon."

"I named him Thorn because shortly after he was born he ran on to a thorn bush. So since I had no name for him I named him Thorn." Era explained.

"You know if your parents used that same system of naming I think your name would be cinderblock." Yuaza retorted.

Era groaned and looked at Eragon who seemed to be trying not to laugh. So she said "Anyway, How did you get your dragon?"

Eragon took a deep breath and told them his tale. He explained to them about how he found Saphira's egg and told about what happened to his uncle. Then about how he and Brom rode to find the Raz'ac. Then when they lost their trail and they went to Teirm. There how he learned how to read and when he met Angela amd her ware cat. Then Gil'ead where he first met Murtagh, and how they rescued Arya. After that how Brom's died. How then they raced against the Urgals to Farthen'dur and the battle that happened there. How Murtagh got kidnapped and Agihad's death and burial. Then how he swore fealty to Nasuada and not the council of Elders. Then how he traveled to Ellesmera, and then training with Orimis. Then the battle at the Burning Fields and his fight with Murtagh. After that how he met with his cousin Roran and the rest of Carahall. Then finally how he just came from the Dwarf King's funeral.

When he was finished the two girls were speechless. it was Yuaza who broke the silence. "Oh yeah, we have a gift for you from the legend teller in Kuasta. He's a sorcerer or was, that lives there and scries the rest of the world to tell his legends. He said he got this under a red sky when a black dragon flew over, and he said this belonged to the hero of Kuasta." Yuaza walked over to the wagon were they had been keeping their stuff, and pulled out the sword and gave it to Eragon. He unsheathed it and let out a gasp, the blade was a bright blue.

"This must have been Brom's blade. I always wondered why he didn't have his sword." Eragon said in amazement. He swung the sword around abit then looked at it again. "This is incredible! He must have found this after the war. That would explain the red sky and the black dragon."

"He also gave us these." Era said. She and Yuaza drew their swords. "Mine was the Sword of Bleta the first female rider, and Yuaza's was the sword of Vrael's himself."

Eragon was shocked he had always thought Vrael had a white dragon. "Vrael had a red dragon?"

Yuaza shrugged "I don't know I just have the sword."

Eragon nodded, "Well do you know how to fight, with swords that is?"

The girls looked at each other they could fight but they never had tried the art of swordsmanship. Their extent of fighting people not them selves was tree stumps or the group of boys they used to hang out with at Daret. There they spent their time there fighting or gambling. Luckily Yuaza's parents knew nothing of this. But the girls figured if they could fight without sword, they could fight with one. So they protected their edges of their swords and were ready to fight. Within three moves Eragon had disarmed them but he did not beat them. After he disarmed them they fought with all their strength and won.

Era grinned "Would you like to try again?"

Eragon groaned "No but you might want to work on your swordsmanship. Though you beat me you might not beat everyone else."

Yuaza nodded then said "So now to the Varden."

Thank you all for your reviews. Now to answer all the reviews I have and will get about why the girls fought in the other chapter. I have three resons

Both of the girls have been raised as boys and to my knowledge of boys when ever they have a disagreement they fight.

The girls are actually really mature though they chose not to be at some points in the story.

I have seen two sixteen year old girls fight before and though I am not totally sure what it was about from what I heard it was something frivolous. This by the way was in real life not in any movie.

Does that answer your questions and as for Murtagh being immature I don't know how boy's minds work so cut me some slack please thank you.
