All Copyrights go to Christopher Paolini, I am a huge fan of Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle Books.

I am always fascinated on Dragons, Magic and different Races like: Orc, Elves and Dwarves and Medieval knights and weapons of sorts.

Prologue Part 1: Recklessness is not an option, together as 1 we shall win.

Elven:

Not knowing if I would ever see his face again or the other person accompanying me.... Now I stand here alone. I look across the landscape in this cold night, towards the sky and the stars shimmer as if knowing of what's about to happen.

I'm not ready to lead this army or win a war at that, I'm still too young and inexperience and they decided to throw me out here still... That's when I heard a voice behind me, "You'd really believed we were going to leave you all alone?", I turned around slowly recognizing the voice. He walked next to me with his partner on his side and put his left hand on my shoulder, "Who else Elven?." He has the bad habit of acting like a teacher in the worst possible moments. "You're persistent you know that". I said to him with a grin, He stood behind me, Smiling ready for the battle that was going to be unleashed upon this wasteland.

I looked forward hoping an answer would appear like magic... "Magic was what got us in this mess in the first place" I said in a whisper, answering my own question. The portals were shimmering as the sun came over the horizon, In My mind all I could hear was his voice reassuring me that there will be food at the camp, "Food? Really? Well that's all yer ever think about mate". Ugh... I caught myself thinking of him, hurtful memories get out!.

My souls right side exposed like a fresh wound, In need of assistance, No one able to repair it, no one... except my Brother.

As the Sun started rising, I lifted up my hand and screamed my lungs out "FOR NARNIA!" everything went quiet... " let's Go!"

We charged as a tsunami and the force of a hurricane but I couldn't stop laughing on my way down the hill.

Prologue Part 2: Where are you Elven?! Have you forgotten about me brother?

Raven:

It has been years since I last saw you.

"Only the strong survive and the weak perish isn't that right?." Standing next to me was one of my teachers, someone which I still do not trust.

"Well yessss, only the ssssstrong will have the opportunity to finisssssh the weak ssssslowly ssssso it can sssssuffer... The ssscreamsss are what makessss me feel pleassssed" She said hissing, "Can you speak normally, please?", I pointed out and in that second she appeared behind me whispering in my ear. "Be careful Raven, you know what I'm capable of." She said slithering away and disappearing into the darkness. I took a deep breath "Humph... You should be the one to be careful snake". I said to myself slowly.
In deep though, I stood on the edge of the castle, going over the plans and tactics.
"All this time you have been in the wrong side brother, It is time to join me at my side, I will personally find you and make you join me, even if I have to use "That". If you don't join me then so be it, I shall end you're life in a flick of my sword, I felt a mass of anger growing inside me like a volcano about to erupt.

I pointed my Sword towards the demons, "KILL ANYTHING THAT APPEARS BEFORE YOU, CHARGE!!." I screamed my throat out. Holding my left hand out, shining pure venomous green and black I vanished. I reappeared at the front of my army.

A foolish Elf came through the portal looking around confused and I though "My plan is working perfectly, all it needs is some finishing touches".

I appeared behind him, cut Him in half, grabbed his hair and cut off his head, from the halved cadaver I lifted up the head, Blood gushing out, I concentrated and from his blood a skeleton hand appeard, slowly rising and taking human form " Hello Durza "The Shade" I am honored to have you with us". He looked around then swiped his hair backwards and gave a disturbing smile "About time someone revived me" he bowed with respect, his evil grin and his eyes flickering fiery red, as red orbs appeared around him.

Thank you, what is your name, if I may ask?" I laughed slowly showing him my left hand, He gasped and looked at me shocked then smiled softly... "That explains how you revived me.... Interesting. He is playing a dangerous game... I shall follow you, for now..." Said Durza with an evil smile.

I am death and shadow itself. Today I will spread it across the land as every body falls at my feet.

Just as the armies clashed from afar I saw him "Elven!" I rushed and appeared in front of him too fast for any kind of eyes and slashed my sword towards his face. There was a moment of silence, "Hello Brother Raven... Its been a while" I jumped back shocked and confused, "How is it possible?! I am too fast for anyone to see!" I rushed again but an invisible force stopped me.

"I stopped your attack thanks to my friends here" I looked and saw nothing, but as I concentrated my magic I understood, a chill ran down my spine "Eragon?!" He smiled and winked at me, slowly getting on a Blue Diamond Dragon.

From afar I heard Durza"Raaaaaaagghhhh, Eragon! I can smell you! Come out, so I can kill your filth once and for all... I will pay you for the pain you caused me years ago."

In that moment I paused, but I have a partner too "Come out Ve---" the Battlefield became dark and void... Down from the sky came My partner, my friend, my Dragon! Pulsing in darkness, "Come Brother, let's fight!"

Elven did same as me and right behind him appeared a blinding light with a roar that left the battlefield in silence. "Let's finish this Raven, no more killing and needles deaths it has come to you and me".
