Authors Note- And I'm back no not to make excuses or anything but I did have like 10 chapter written up to post, but I started to run out of space on my laptop so I started to delete random stuff and w/ my luck I deleted all of the new chapters I had just typed. -_- So I am sorry for the delay but I will try to at least update weekly since I am out of school for now but w/ tournament team for softball and swim practice every morning I have not been able to go back and retype these. As it is I am typing this on the 4th of July, and there is no Wi-Fi so no updating as of now and by the time I actually post this…. Ill be camping once again without any Wi-Fi. More about that in the next chapter you guys have waited long enough so here we go. Ps my concussion has gone away! I'm all better now…but now I don't sleep soooooo sorry for mess-ups in my grammar and shtuff.

Disclaimer- If I owned either of these stories I would be in the freakin Bahamas by now, so ya. And the fact that I am female also, makes it a little harder to pretend to be either of the respective authors.

Max POV-

I can feel the air rushing by and it feels so familiar, I almost just want to give into the fall and let my inevitable death happen, but yet, I have so much more to live for. So I snap open my eyes and yell out in the ancient language " Fall Stop" with as much force as I can manage. The magic is released instantaneously, and I can feel the strain of having that magic continue to hold me in place. I hold for another 30 seconds until I can see black spots on the edge, but neither Midnight or Saphira are close enough so I continue to keep my magic going when I hear shouting beneath me and it startles me so much that I stop. And go hurtling towards the ground, as the magic cost catches up to me I hear in the ancient language the words, "cushion fall", and I feel my fall slowly slow down but by the time my body hits the ground I am out cold. All the while I felt a strange absence of my dragon.

Midnight POV-

When I feel Saphira behind me and feel the anger radiating off of her I do what my instincts said, to roll and fly immediately up. Not realizing what Max is going through I continue to spiral upwards. When I feel her bite the back of my tail I immediately whip around and attack her back, putting my mind defense all the way up blocking out even Max. And our fight engages, I do not know why she attacked and I will not ask, not until I come out victorious. Turning back around I immediately dive down and turn my neck around, and I spit fire at her wings, not enough to cripple or injure her to badly, just enough to stop her attack, and it worked, sort of. It made her stop short and roar very loudly, but it just made her even more enraged. She immediately chases me down picking up more speed than I can, her wings are bigger after all, and so I must beat her not by speed but by agility, stamina, and tight turns. So I do what every dragon before me has done, I went in to survival mode and I didn't come out of it until Gladr himself stopped me, and by that I mean he pinned me to the ground until my rage went away. But that isn't for another hour and for now I must fight

1 hour later

(imagine the guy from SpongeBob saying that)

By the time I saw Gladr great golden hide make its way into the sky Saphira and me were both bleeding terribly from multiple wounds. Mostly in our wings and tails, and I had blood dripping out of my mouth caused when one of my teeth broke off, while Saphira had a bloody foot from where a claw had broke in half. Then it happened she started to shake and gray smoke came out of her and made a shape of a G, and then it immediately dissipated and her eyes which looked so enraged went through 3 emotions all at once, weariness, confusion, and lastly pain. But I wasn't through with her, so I continued to chase her, until Gladr slammed into me, which dazed me, and he grabbed my tail gently and started to pull me towards the ground. As soon as we touched down I immediately struck out and I hit his leg. And he pushed me to the ground and held me there. It was very embarrassing, and while I sat there and let the rage slip away, I noticed that I was missing a small amount of weight from my back. I immediately sat up and threw him off and I cast down my barriers in search of her, but to no avail, I could not reach her mind, it was missing, and it was making me feel so incomplete.

Turning to Gladr I ask, "Where is she? Where is Max? What happened to her? What the hell happened to make Saphira do that?"

"BE QUIET AND PATIENT!" Gladr rumbled, quietly he added Max is being taken care of by Oromis and Arya, and I don't know what happened to Saphira but we'll figure it out." He then took off into the sky leaving me behind, I presume he's going to look for Saphira. Curling up into a ball I sit and wait, knowing he will come back and lead me to where I need to go when the time is right.

Authors Note- Sorry about the shortness of the chapter it is the first one in a while and they'll get longer and longer soon enough hope you enjoyed! Please help with constructive critisism if you have any for I am still a noob at this, and I will always be a noob, as will we all for none of us is perfect.
