((Sorry guys, I had finals... But now i'm done tilll January!!!))
Cassandra caught up as the elf slowed down. "Wait! There are things up there! Dangerous things!!!" She said kind of quietly but urgently. She didn't want to wake the village or any of the horses. She didn't want more conflict.

“There is darkness in light, there is pain in joy,”"If they're dangerous, then they must be prevented from reaching the village.", Kefira responds calmly. Shifting her attention back to her destination, she picks her pace back up. “And there are thorns on the rose.” ― Cate Tiernan

"As long as I am in power, It WILL go my way!" The secret side of me, I never let you see I keep it caged but I can't control it So stay away from me, the beast is ugly I feel the rage and I just can't hold it Sitting in the building she had built. She sat. Her dark aura shining around her as she made sure to keep herself under high safety. She looked over from her seat at her dragon. He was already full grown, only took him a month. But she was that reason. The reason he was already so big. When her dragon had fallen in the attack she was picked for a second dragon. She was lucky she supposed as her slumbering dragon snorted smoke. She had hated making him bigger. It put him through some pain, but he was alright with it.
She was not just sitting around. Her thoughts were elsewhere, her vision elsewhere. She summoned her own version of a seeing crystal and watched as it shifted colors and showed her what she had wanted to see. Her dragon huffed as he felt disgusted by the image he saw through her head. She looked at a cliff. Above Palancar Valley, where the descendants of Eragon's cousin, Roran made residence in the castle there. She laughed coldly as she had felt the power released through the rider. She found the riders dragon and noticed why. Being siamese twins of a sort. Combined and quite ugly, the two headed hatchling was of two bodies. She cackled as her dragon grunted upset. Normally before such times as this, dragons of this hatchlings dismay, were set free to be wild. To do their own thing as they were considered deformed. She moved her vision to see what else she could see. The young man who had cast the spell had been slung into a tree just from the force of using so much un bridled energy. The hatchling looking over him, not a ra'zac in sight and coming up the slope was an elf and a girl who was carrying the egg left in the Ra'zac's care.
Both she and the dragon snapped back to attention as a knock sounded at her door. She looked over slightly to see her dragon raise an eyelid before pretending to sleep. She sighed extremely annoyed. "Come in. I haven't got all day!" She said and then getting more impatient as she got louder and stood slinging the door open with a quick, "Mor'amr du grind!" using the word for gate as there wasn't a word for door in the ancient language. The door slung itself open and the head of her Shades walked in timidly. It could tell she was becoming angry and impatient. The dragon raised it's head to see the unlucky soul who was in his rider's wrath.
"m-my lady. The Ra'zac have reported from the nest half a league to the east of Palancar Valley..." The shade said. The young woman stepped down and walked forwards. Grabbing the shades collar and lifting the creature into the air her dragon growled.
"Yes, I know they did. I know they lost the egg I put in their nest! And I know that all but the mother and two hatchlings were disintigrated by a Fire Spell cast by a new dragon rider!! So WHY Do you try my patience with such foolish and unneeded talk!" She said her rage filling her vision and her dragon rumbled some. She quieted her rage and set him down.
"And what did they say Catler... You are running down my patience... She said quietly. She set the shade down and turned towards her dragon. It stood and stretched it's neck into the light. It's light blue scales glittered darkly. "Young one. You shouldn't critique those who serve you. Otherwise they may turn on you, like you did the other riders.
The young woman sighed and nodded. "You are always right. I'm glad you are my conscience Aqua... Now Catler, please speak... She said to the dragon and then to the shade. She returned to her seat.
"My Lady Roxanne... The Ra'zac responded with my warning about losing the egg." Roxanne stood again and her dragon started to growl.
"And? He could feel her anger.
They responded with they have already died. What more can you do. They tried... The shade said cringing.
"What can I do?! I'll show you AND those accursed Ra'zac and any ra'zac that believe they can get away with dismissing what I say!" In her rage she blasted the doors off of their hinges in a single breathe. Slammed the Shade into the room that he was to dwell in, and a dragon's wings could be heard from Palancar Valley. Yes, the Mistress and her dragon were paying a visit to the Ra'zac nest. And any of her following dragons were allowed to come and watch. I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin I must confess that I feel like a monster I've gotta lose control, he something radical I must confess that I feel like a monster

"Neh~ Don't leave so soon!~ We still want to play~," the women cooed from the doorway, waving at Remus who turned to leave. He glanced over his shoulder, grinning before resolutely leaving and pocketing his hands. He whistled a tune, his mood slightly more chipper as he ducked into an ally. "Jura," he called quietly, growing accustomed to the little thing following him around. While he initially found her annoying, Jura had grown on him as a sort of companion. The little thing, a red hatchling, fluttered to him from the roof, her eyes a deep color as she stared at him. "You're disgusting. Going into that forsaken brothel. Aren't you ashamed?" She translated in his head, her head twisting before turning away from him, her tail whipping back and forth. Remus scratched his head, slightly annoyed before opening his bag. "Come, inside. No need to get you spotted," he whispered urgently, deciding not to comment on Jura's chastise. She was forced to watch Remus's dirty thoughts. He couldn't help it. He was a grown man. He patted the burlap bag tenderly. Even though he was irritated from time to time with her, he still thought fondly with Jura. Between the telepathic conversations and her small looks, Remus couldn't part with such a being. He moved away from the alley of the bustling village he was in and made his way to travel.

"Xepher. Xepher," she whispered, stroking the smooth white scales of her dragon, who slept in his den. Pozlaceny pet him tenderly, with a caring touch as she tried to coax him awake. His tail moved and Pozlaceny stopped, knowing he was awake. She sighed and took a step back. "My Lady has already departed. We should go soon, or we'll miss the theatrics," she murmured, putting a hand on her hip. Her icy blue eyes stared at Xepher who moved slightly before his own eyes opened. He laid there, watching her, tempting whether to get up or not. He sensed her urgency and responded to her desire, moving up and standing on his four legs with a strong shudder. He stretched, opening and airing his wings slightly, as much as the den he slept in allowed.
Xepher was still young. While he was still fairly large, definitely the burly sort, he was still small. Pozlaceny smiled a little, leaping forward and prepared to saddle him. She adjusted the straps before leading him out.
"Why bother? You know very well my Lady is only going to punish and tear chaos in Palancar valley." Ren crossed his arms, his colorless eyes staring at the pink haired girl with slight annoyance and coldness. She stared back at him, this type of conversation with Ren all too familiar.
This time, she chose not to answer and climb onto Xepher before he launched himself into the sky. Ren watched her before sighing, moving away to busy himself with his errands.

Cassandra decided to continue following up the hill after the elf, who was easily able to out distance her. When Cassandra finally crested the hill she gasped as the upper part of the cliff was charred. She had just jumped from that ledge and the trees surrounding it looked to be ashes on the ground. She looked back towards the trees that weren't charred and there was a young man, older than her, she supposed. She noticed that there was a two headed lizard with wings next to him. She walked over and realized that the two headed lizard was actually a dragon. She put her pack down next to her feet and tried to see if anything was wrong with the male. She quickly jumped through as she heard wings. She wasn't able to tell if they were dragon or Lethrblaka.

"As long as I am in power, It WILL go my way!" The secret side of me, I never let you see I keep it caged but I can't control it So stay away from me, the beast is ugly I feel the rage and I just can't hold it Riding astride her dragon was always exhilarating and saddening. It reminded her at first of her original sapphire dragon. But she would always put the thoughts of him out of her head before he would realize what she was thinking. He raised his thoughts in slight alarm as they flew. She started using her own mind to see what he was sensing. She soon realized who and what was following her. He stopped his alarming thoughts as well and slowed only slightly for the younger dragon to catch up slightly.
"Xepher and Pozlaceny are approaching from down wind about ten degrees, young one." He told her. "Yes, I sense them Aqua. Shall we wait, they might just want to watch the fun I am about to unleash on a rather annoying family of bird-like creatures." She replied to her dragon. He made a nodding motion with his head and slowed even more than his original speed. I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin I must confess that I feel like a monster I've gotta lose control, he something radical I must confess that I feel like a monster

Ebony slowly came around his eyes opening as he woke up, to find a girl standing over him, the same one from before. He sat up and looked at her, "You really should be more care who you provoke. But if you hadn't I wouldn't have found out how powerful my spell would be. That was a simple medium level fire spell, but thanks to my dragon, That spell packed a lot more of a wallop!" and he laughed a little before shaking his head.
Little Gorvin climbed into his riders arms, and stayed there happily, making a squeaky sound that sounded like laughter.

Cassandra smiled only slightly, as she cautiously put out her hand to help him up. "I don't understand a word you are saying but I'm guessing you are feeling better then?" She asked. She wasn't sure about the dragon or the fact that he seemed ot be a dragon rider.

"You Don't See any Ra'zaks or their parents around do you? I cast a fire spell that if cast by any other rider would have merely them given them some warmth and possibly some burns...and Because My dragon is two headed the spell incinerated them." Then Ebony slowly stood and said, "Gorvin here is a two headed dragon. This means he was once 2 dragon brothers, twins, who shared the same egg. But while they waited for their rider, waited for me, they merged and combined into one hatchling. But This is not as bad as it sounds. Gorvin pumps as much magic through me as two adult dragons, making my spells extremely powerful."

Cassandra picked up her pack with the hand she had offered Ebony and tightened the strings, before putting it onto her back. She shied away slightly from Gorvin, as she wasn't sure about the dragon, but she couldn't help but smile at the fact they had helped her. She looked back at the elf. She was very thankful, and slipped into the noble blood that she had normally locked away. She bowed smiling and said quite confidently,"Elrun ono. Pömnuria knifr er wiol ono." She stood slowly as was custom, realized what she had done and started backing away apologizing and muttering that she had errands and things to do.
((Translated as "Thank you. My knife is for you" That is the literal translation. Meaning I am in your debt.))

“There is darkness in light, there is pain in joy,”Kefira looks at the girl oddly before shaking her head a little and heading back down the trail, obviously not having much interest now that the danger is supposedly gone. “And there are thorns on the rose.” ― Cate Tiernan

"Don't apologize for saying you're in my debt. I could use some company. And Besides, It's nice to see a fellow rider. That is no mere stone you carry," Ebony said with a smile before walking toward the edge of the cliff, "Come on in, but be careful, the ledge is very small." Then he climbed down over the edge of the cliff and into a cavern in the cliff face. It was a cavern that went relatively far into the cliff face, at least 50 ft, and the entrance was small enough to only allow one person to pass through it at a time. Inside there was a small fire with a couldron above it. Inside the couldron was only water. "Come on Inside! It's safer in here."

Cassandra watched him uncertainly. She followed though, wanting to know how he knew she was carrying a stone. She entered the cavern and stayed closer towards the exit. She felt some movement in her backpack but didn't make any sudden movements about it. She didn't know what he was doing or getting on about. Another rider?
