The next morning Serenity was the first of the dragons up. She streached on the ground before taking off for a bit of the cold, high air.
Sera was also awake at the break of dawn, but for a far different reason. Her back. She had moved wrong in the night and a pain like fire shot through her. She couldn't move. The doctors gave her the herbs they thought would help. But Sera still blocked Serenity from her mind completely, for fear of her feeling her Rider's pain.
Sera was told, once the pain began to subside not to move. Also, she was to have no visitors. She began to question the doctor's motives.

Ky had fallen out of bed in the middle of the night. though when she did ky didn't even wake up. Kyle was still asleep when Ky got dressed and so once sh was up she woke him. though being kind of ticked off that Ky had woken him up kyle was ready to help ky get into the infirmiry. very slowly kyle flew up the three floors to the window in the room. Ky peeked in and when she saw no one except for sera she opened the window. quietly Ky entered the room to keep from disturbing sera. but just as she was walking across the room the door began to open. Ky panicked and dove under a bed. she could see the door from where she lay and surprisingly murtagh snuck into the room. then Ky got up and walked over to him. murtagh looked up and from his worried expression Ky knew she needed to heal sera now.below them sera stirred and mumbled something. Ky said "um..? what did you say?"

"I don't wanna go back down there.," Sera mumbled again. She was dreaming about one of her own earliest memories.
When she was younger and before she'd been allowed to touch Serenity's egg, every morning her father would tell her to go and sit at the courtyard pond and listen. And she always hated every moment of it.
Her eyes tightened for another second before she relaxed, back into a deeper sleep.

ky starred at sera for a moment and then put her hand on the queens back right across the wound. sera stirred under her touch and tried to move away but ky held tight. she was asessing the damage. suddenly she removed her hand and looked at murtagh. sera stirred but didn't really wake up. Ky knew she had to be in obvious pain but something was causinng her to sleep and not wake up. Ky had a feeling that wha tever she had dreamt about was happening. as ky starred at murtagh she pointed to the window and then said "we need to go." murtahg nodded and as they left through the window the door opened and someone walked in carrying a vial of something really thick that he forced down sera's throahgt. ky saw him and when they were on the ground she began to tell murtagh about her dream. the guy she had seen in her dream was the same guy she had seen with sera as they were leaving. soemmone was planning to over throw the crown. ky was trying to figure out a way for her to cure sera and them get out of urubaen with out the traitor being identified. ky just couldn't figure out how. as they both walked back to their rooms ky talked with kyle about some way they could "kidnap" the queen in order to save her and the country.

Serenity was beginning to worry. Sera's mind was a seal vault, full only of the thoughts of ant and birds and snakes. Thoughts on the life-force of plants.
Serenity touched both Kylara and Murtagh's minds. Murtagh blocked her out partially, obviously trying to hide the full details of the situation. Serenity was a powerful young dragon. And she didn't fear anything within the castle wall.

ky left her mind open while she was exlaining her dream to murtagh. she could feal serenit react to her explenationn as she got to thepart where the guy wa sitting on the throne. as Kylara described him serenity growled. both riders looked abck at the dragon. at the look on serenity's face caused a slight bit of panick in both riders. serenity looked as if she were going to eat someone and enjoy it. Ky turned back around and continued to describe the ending to the nightmare.

Emerald flames poured from serenity's snout. Why that foul, loathsome, evil...traitor! I'll rip out his entrails and east them as he watches! I'l roast him alive! I-- She thought, her anger coming off in waves.
"Serenity, please, calm yourself. There's no way he could know wee know who he is. But I've not seen him around the castle. Who is he?,'' Murtagh said, trying to get the young dragon to relax.
Serenity snorted once more and responded. He is known as Michael the Archer around here now. But he was born Michael Fitzroy.
'Fitz' in front of any name meant they were illigitimate. Roy was the royal prefix.
Michael, the illigitimate son of Galbatorix, was making a run for the crown.

Ky agve off an exasperated sigh and swung kyle in a wide arc. as they flew back to the castle ky suddenly had a revelation. ky turned to murtagh and said "i think i know who was controling the razac. i mean it makes perfect sense. he would incapacitate one of us leaving our guard down and then come in for the crown." Murtagh nodded and siad "we have to get back to the castle and save sera now. she is the only person who could ever stand a chance against hi in a fight." ky just nodded and got kyle to go faster. they got back just as the sun was setting. ky flew kyle right up to the infirmiry and jsut as they got there ky threw the winds open. ky hardly let kyle stop before she was off and runing for sera's bed. as she got there Ky slowed down until she just barely stopped before runing into the bed. Ky said "i know you told me not to heal you but we've got a problem and need your help." and with that Ky put her heands on sera's back and began to heal it. the whole process took about ten minutes but it was worth it. along with healing sera she removed the poison and gave sera back enough energy to get her back on her feet. as seh felt sera stir Ky sank down next to the bed. ky hadn't felt this bad sense she had recovered form her previous wounds. sera sat up and looked around like she didn't know where she was.

Sera blinked a few times, trying to understand her surroundings. The dream had been so vivid, so perfect. She had expected to awaken in the courtyard, alone. But as she lowered her mental barriers, she felt Serenity's mentality flood her. And in just that moment, all of Serenity's memories, recent and otherwise. Including the conversation.
"Traitor.," Sera spat the word and her face became a mask of anger and hatered. Serenity snorted and it was obvious they were thinking the same thing: rip, tear, KILL him.

ky sat next to the bed gasping from the exertion. she knew it had been reckless to heal sera but desperate times call for desperate measures. right at about the time sera became fully aware the door opened and in stepped michael. ky looked from one royal to the other. she knew she was in a kind of iffy spot on floor. Ky began to move out of the way and good thing she did because as soon as she was out of the way all h*** broke loose.

"Traitor!," Sera snapped. She whispered the word for fire in the ancient language and held a ball of fire in one hand. Michael laughed, deep and rude. Sera chucked the fire ball at him, and he dived out of the way.
"You can't beat me you disgusting little half-ling. Father prefered you, even if you were younger. He gave you the egg. That was my place, not yours!," Michael said, diving at her.
"It was my place, because your mother was nothing more than a fifty crown w***e!,"Sera said, dodging him, then driving her elbow into his back.
Michael was on his feet after that, amazingly. he dove at her and she slid across the floor. "You take that back, you half-blood wretch!"
"NEVER!," Sera cried, burying her knee in his groin as he hit the ground. He hit his head, and it caused him to black out.

ky was still on te floor just feet from where the battle had taken place. she starred at the now unconcious michael and the enraged sera. Ky slowly got up in case she startled the panting girl. sera who was barely back on her feet had just taken out her own brother. as she moved to the window ky asked kyle "if she would do that to her own kin wht would she do to me or nicolae?" Kyle answered "i don't think you will have to worry about that. you seem to be on her good side." ky agreed and just starred at her "friend" and could agree that ever sense sera's rampage across ellesmera the two had been on better terms. she could remember back to when she had first met the young princess and had thought of her as just a spoiled child. but now she could see that maybe the country could florish under her rule if she didn't mess things up to awfly bad. ky snapped out of it as sera turned to her and gave her this "i thought i told you... look." Ky looked at the grounnd and kind of kicked at the floor. she knew she was in trouble but it had been partly murtaghs idea too but she would have to take the blame for actually healing sera.

Sera brushed her hair from her face and rounded on Kylara. "And you! You could've killed yourself! Then where would we be?! You'd be dead, I'd be stuck here, and the fate of Alagaisia would left in the hands of that idiot Nicolae and Murtagh whose not much brighter.," Sera said. Michael stirred slightly and Sera kicked him hard in the head, knocking him out for at least a good two to three hours.
"I ought to let Serenity have her way with this one. Would that be horrible of me?," Sera asked, trying to avoid a painful wound to her pride. Serenity roared her approval of Sera's thoughts, knowing that she would possibly get to rip the traitor apart.

Ky looked at sera and then at serenity. Then she seemed to go insane for a few moments. ky walked up to sera and said "if I hadn't healed you thenwhere would we be? I'll tel you where dead! Your half brother would have killed all of us and taken over the kingdom. And you have the nerve to tell me what I should and should not do?" with that last statement ky walked out but before the door closed she turned back into the room and said " I am leaving and never going to come back. Oh and don't try to find me nicolae or you either murtagh or I'll let Kyle sT you if you even get close. And with that she left and packed her things abs got on Kyle to leave.

"Good! Get out of my EMPIRE!," Sera screamed behind Kylara. She was really beginning to get tired of elves. Of all kinds. "You, too, Nicolae. Go home. I was hoping for this situation to go better. But now I see. Let it be war upon you both.,"Sera continued. Her eyes were tired, but also bright with her rage.
Nicolae had no other choice. He found Gabriel and took off, going back towards Ellesmera He wished he could've spoke to Kylara, but she had a big lead on him, because he knew she would have Kyle flying full speed.
Sera fell into a chair with a sigh, and Murtagh walked in with a stern look.

ky was seriously ticked as she and kyle flew through the cool night air. as she calmed down kyles asked her where they were going. ky began to say to there place in the spine. then she changed her mind and said "were going back to my moms house." kyle rolled his lapis lazul eyes back toward his rider. "why" he asked. Ky said i need to find out something that has been troubeling me for a few days. "which would be", kyle asked. ky told him about her scrying of her moms home nad how her mom had a picture of galbatorix on the mantle next to the one of her dad. once she was finished kyle course corrected for ellesmera. as the flew ky asked " did i do the right thing by healing sera, or should i have let her be in pain for the rest of her life?" kyle siad "you did the right thing by the society you were raised in. i think sera is not exactly used to being carred about and your willingness to help her might have her a little aprihensive." ky agreed and started to think about the first night she had met the young queen. her first impression had been a spoiled queenling that was the spitting image of erh father. now however she could see that ser'a character went far deeper than that. as they flew Ky began to get sleep and since she kind of wanted to get to ellesmera tomorrow she slept while kyle flew.

"You ought not have done that, Sera. She was only trying to help. Nicolae, too, though he was a bit of an instigator at times.,"Murtagh said, taking a seat beside the exhausted Queen.
'I'm not apologising. Apologies are a sign of weakness. And I show no weakness to those fools. If it must be war between the Empire and the elves, let it be. I don't care if they aren't my subjects. I asked her, as a friend and ally, to let me be.,"Sera responded. Serenity appeared outside the window, worried. "Take this one to the Dungeon until I decide what should be done about him." She kicked Michael in the head again. She mounted Serenity through the window and the dragon carried her up to her room, where she all but collapsed onto the bed from exhaustion.

it was raining when kylara and kyle got to her moms place. as Ky walked up to the door she began to get kind of anxious. just before she knocked on the door ku looked back at kyle as if this was actualy a good thing. when kyle kind of nodded his head ky gave the door three good bangs. from inside she could hear someone saying something about just a minute. when the door was finally opened ky looked up at the person in the door way. it was her mom and the look she gave her was an i'm so sorry look. her mom just starred at her for about two or three minutes before motioning inside. it had begun rainig when Ky and Kyle were about half an hour from her hose so both were again dripping wet. Ky's mom had some kind of cool stuff and loved to have people over. her daughter however was another matter. ky hadn't been back to this house since she had left when she was like twenty something. as the two elves sat at the table and drank the tea her mom had prepared ky claered her throaght and asked the question that had been troubeling her for the past few days. "mom do i have any sibblings?" Ky's mom looked at the table for a long time and then said " i nee to show you something." then she got up and lead Ky into the living room and over to the fire place. on the mantle were two farthes one wa her father and the other was someone who made fun of giving Ky nightmares.

Sera slept off her exhaustion.
Murtagh, on the other hand, was almost panicing. A war? Another war? This time with the elves? They would be murdered! He was going to have to stop that. But how? He couldn't go over Sera's head. She would kill him. What if he went to Ellesmera? Stop this before it started...It was the only way. He left silently on Thorn's back, racing towards the elven city.
Nicolae landed in the city and rushed to Islanzadi.

On the mantle was a farthe of galbatorix. Ky nearly passed out from the surprise bit when she thought about it it was intirely to possible. Ky hadn't been back to this house in so long that her mom probably had found someone else. Kyle entered her mind and asked " who is going to tell sera the not so great news?" kylara looked at her dragon starring in the window and said " me I guess hopefully before she kills me. The all of a sudden myles head snapped up and kylaraheard the flapping of enormous wings asthey passed over the house. Kylara ran outside to see who it was and to her great surprise she saw murtagh and his red dragon getting ready to land. Kyle had moved out of the way considerably. As muratgh dismiunted kylara starred at him a d was about ready to kill him when murtagh held up his hands in a gesture of peace.
