Hiya! I got the idea of Eragon saying 'nin nin' from the anime Fairy Tail in one of the first few episodes Natsu and Happy are pretending to be Ninja's. Well anyway, hope you enjoy it! Please a review and favorite! Farewell and enjoy!

-Let there be midnight

Arya's Day of Toddlers

Arya stood in front of the table with crossed arms while Angela, Orik, Solembum, Saphira, and Thorn sat down in front of her, well Saphira and Thorn just put their heads in the tent since they were too big. Next to Saphira, Eragon sat there playing with Albert while Murtagh sat next to Thorn, making a picture of Thorn that looked a lot more like a bug than a dragon.

"All right," Arya started, looking at everyone in the room.

"Who will take care of Eragon and Murtagh today?" she asked. When she looked to where Solembum was seated on the table, she saw the spot empty with no trace of the werecat anywhere. Okay, one down but I still have four more. Arya thought.

"Sorry, I'm experimenting with something that might explode today and going to try and find a cure through the old books I found in the village a few miles away, so, I'm out." Angela gave Arya an apologetic smile before she sat up and excused herself from the tent, making Arya sigh. Arya looked at Orik with slight hope, but he looked at her with wide eyes, shaking his head making it look like it was about to fall off.

"Arya! You take care of Eragon! I'm not!" he shouted. Arya raised her eyebrows curiously at him as he stood up.

"Why not?" she asked him.

"He found Brisingr yesterday and I told him the name of the sword. When he said it, I saw my life flash before my eyes!" His eyes were wild now as he started to shake at the memory.

"Well, what about Murtagh then?" Murtagh perked up at the mention of his name, but when he saw no one looking at him, he went back to drawing the Thorn like bug.

"No! He almost choked me with his new recipe of torture!"

I will. Thorn spoke up, making both Arya and Orik look at him. Well, he is my Rider, so it will only be appropriate if I did look after him and I now got the full grasp of this… situation.

"Great! Murtagh, go with Thorn, he's going to look after you today." Murtagh nodded as he stood up with paper and crayons in hand and exited the tent while Orik went his own way, muttering to himself about having to find a better place for Brisingr. "Saphira, will you take Eragon?" Arya asked as she looked at the great big blue dragon. Saphira shook her head.

Sorry, I have to make sure Thorn doesn't do anything too dangerous around Murtagh and I don't have enough time to watch Eragon while trying to make sure Thorn doesn't accidently step on Murtagh.

"But he's your Rider."

Yes, I know. I'll watch him tomorrow, but not while Murtagh has the danger of death with Thorn watching him. Arya sighed but nodded her head as she closed her eyes in frustration.

"Yes, yes, alright. Go and make sure Thorn doesn't kill Murtagh before we find the cure." Saphira gave another apology before she left the tent, leaving Eragon and Arya alone.

"Alright who—" She opened her eyes to look around but only saw Eragon looking up at her with wide adorable eyes. "Looks like I'm the one who is taking care of you today." She sighed as she walked over to Eragon and bent down to look at him in the eyes. "So, Eragon what do you want to do?" Eragon beamed up at her in excitement as he jumped up with Albert clutched to his chest.

"Hid 'n' Seek! Hide 'n' Seek!" he cheered happily. Arya nodded, smiling gently at him, patting his head gently.

"Okay Eragon, why don't you hide and I count?" Eragon nodded and ran off. Before he exited the tent he looked at Arya with serious big brown eyes that could make any girl squeal from the cuteness it held.

"Imma ninja. Be wawned." He slowly walked out of the tent, eyes always on Arya. "Nin nin. Nin nin." And with that, he disappeared from sight with Albert clinched tightly to his chest. Arya blinked, barley processing what just happened.

"Uhh…" Was all she could say before she covered her eyes hesitantly and started to count to twenty.

~Ten minutes later~

"Eragon!" Arya called out, looking under and within everything that came within sight, but she just couldn't find the brown hair little adorable toddler anywhere. "Note to self, never play hide and seek with Eragon when he's two. He's a good hider." she told herself as she put her hands on her hips and shook her head. "I swear he can stay hidden forever if he could." Arya said, going off to find Eragon once more.

When she finally found the toddler, he was inside a chest with Albert still clinched tightly to his chest as he looked up at Arya giggling and holding out his arms for her to pick him up. Arya smiled as she picked the toddler up and swung him in the hair as he giggled more.

"I found you Eragon!" she cooed as he laughed even more, Arya now settling him on her hip. When she went outside with Eragon firmly on her hip, she realized it was night time. "Let's get you something to eat before we put you to bed." And with that, they went off to the cook's tent.

~After Dinner with Eragon in Bed~

Eragon was snuggled cozily in bed with Albert still at his chest as he stared up at Arya with sleepy eyes as she smoothed down his hair and placed a gently kiss on top of his head with a smile.

"Me had fun…" Eragon said in a sleepy voice.

"I bet you did." Arya responded quietly as Eragon snuggled deeper into the blankets.

"Twank you Ary Ary…" His eyes fluttered close, Eragon losing the battle with sleep. "Night night… Ary…" And with that, the small toddler fell asleep. Arya placed one last kiss on his forehead as she stood up to leave.

"Night Eragon, sweet dreams and don't let the bed bugs bite!" she whispered as she closed the flap to the tent.
