Thanks for reviewing. I'll be sure to make this chapter longer.

Chapter 2

This chapter takes place ten years in the future. Saphira (Sapphire) has figured out how to move in her human body and is living with Eragon and Saphira.

I was reading a book when I had a flashback. It wasn't the first time, every few days I blacked out just to go to my past and remember something.

This time, I remembered what Brom had said after we had started our training.

We'll get through this together.

As soon as the flashback faded, tears sprung to my eyes. I missed Brom. I had learned that he was dead from Eragon but I still missed him.

Suddenly, I heard a roar of anger. I jumped up and ran to find Eragon. When I did find him, he was standing next Saphira, trying to calm her down.

What's wrong, Eragon? I yelled with my mind.

He turned back to look at me before saying.

"Saphira's egg has gone missing."

WHAT! I exclaimed.

"We can't find her egg anywhere and she's panicking." Eragon replied.

You would too if your child went missing. Saphira wailed.

Don't worry, we'll find it. I said trying to calm her down. Saphira looked at me for a moment and then she must've said something to Eragon because he said.

"She means, I'll find it."

I'll look too. I said firmly.

"NO!" Eragon exclaimed.

I'm not a child, Eragon, I can look for her egg. I said defiantly.

"I won't let you." Eragon said firmly.

You're being ridiculous. I said exasperated.

"You're too young." Eragon said.

I am not! I said angrily.

"Yes you are." Eragon said.

Saphira. I complained to her because she usually sided with me.

For once, I agree with Eragon. Saphira said before adding. We can't lose two hatchlings in one day.

But, Saphira, I can find it. I complained.

"You heard her, you're not going." Eragon said firmly.

I stomped my foot ready to throw a full-blown temper tantrum if I had to. The temper tantrum was one of the only good things that came with being a human kid.

"No you will not get your way with a temper tantrum." Eragon said sternly.

"Fine." I snarled causing him to stand in shock before i stormed away.

The reason he was shocked was that I usually only spoke with my mind. I found speaking with my voice quite tedious so I hardly do. Only when I had to or when I was really mad did I use my voice.

When I stomped away, I wasn't giving up. I was going to get my sword and go look for Saphira's egg. I, of all people, understood how a dragon's egg was important to her.

As soon as I got my sword, I snuck out. That was fairly hard considering that Saphira and Eragon seemed to see everything. I had to keep ducking behind cabinets and blocking my mind. But I was finally able to get out into the forest.

Once I was out in the forest, there was only one thing to do: pick a direction and look for Saphira's egg. I finally decided to just go straight and see if I could find it.

I looked high and low, but I couldn't find it. It was like it had disappeared off the face of the earth. I continued looking for at least another hour before I saw it and a man.

What do you think you are doing with a dragon egg? I asked coldly.

The man looked up surprised but when he saw me he seemed to dismiss me, as if I were a mere girl. Which was a terrible mistake.

I said: WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING WITH A DRAGON EGG? I said harshly.

This time he looked at me with more interest. He pulled out a sword. I laughed and pulled out my own.

"What do you want?" He asked.

That dragon egg, so I can deliver it safely back to its guardians. I replied my voice cold.

He did something very surprising. He threw the egg and ran. My attention shifted from him to the egg and I dived after it.

I threw my arms around it and then I started tumbling down. After a few knocks to the head, I fell unconscious.
