The Begining of the End
Eragon
It was the second day since the capture of Fienstar. Eragon was outside Nasuada's tent getting ready for the upcoming war meeting she summoned him to. It was five minutes later that she called him in. To Nasuada's right was Jormundarr and Arya and to her left was Angela the herbalist. Nasuada told Eragon to take a seat. He took a seat and Nasuada began speaking " Eragon Islanzadi told me that you should be there for the burrial of Oromis and Glaedr. What do you think about it?"
Eragon sat there thinking about it when he got an idea. Saphira do you think we should go to Oromis' and Glaedr's Burrial?
I don't know little one this is your decision no one can make it for you.
Alright, Saphira, it's just, I want to go but what if the Varden need us. What if Thorn and Murtagh come out and attack while we are gone. They could kill over half the Varden and mortally wound a lot of them. What if we take that chance and come back and find most of them dead. That is a chance we can't take.
Alright Eragon that is a tough choice but I think you should hurry up and choose so they stop staring at you. She told him while letting loose a jet of saphire fire.
Okay Saphira.
So he looked at them and said "I shall stay here and protect the Varden while we proceed to Belatona."
Eragon felt someone trying to enter his mind and threw up his defensive barrier's. He noticed it was Arya and let her in. "Yes Arya? What do you want?"
"Are you serious about not going to the funeral?"
"Aye, I am."
"Good because that leaves us the chance to go on a mission for Nasuada she planned that this will go this way and knew that if it did we would have the time for this."
"And this is?" Eragon asked.
"You and me going on a solo attack taking Belatona. That way we won't lose men to war."
"But how? You and me cannot overpower the entire city on our own!?"
"Ahh but we can. We have Saphira set Belatona ablaze and the we go in there capture the leader and Destroy it and we won." She explained.
"Alright we can try but i don't think it will be that simple, what if Murtagh and Thorn are there lying in wait for us?
"Then let them you can beat them I know you can."
"It's not like you to be overconfident." Eragon thought with a smirk.
"I am not being overconfident." She told him. "Just sure."
"Alright, alright." Eragon said soothingly.
He then saw her struggle to get her emotionless mask back on. She couldn't so she asked Nasuada if she could be excused and ran out.
"Alright so this meeting is over." Nasuada said, then ran out following Arya.
So with that Eragon stood up and left.

Arya
Why did I yell like that, she thought. I've not had an outburst like that since i had gotten banished by my mother. She thought back to the mixed feelings that she had shoved to a corner of her mind and sealed of even to herself. In it was the feeling's she had for Eragon. She had hidden them away to not be thought about till the war was over, but she couldn't help but think about them. Then she saw Nasuada coming, the only person she had shared her feeling's with.
"Arya? Are you all right?" Nasuada asked.
"No I am not. I should not have outbursted like that. That was very impolite of me please forgive me." She said.
"Ahh Arya it's about Eragon again isn't it? And tell the truth." She added
"Aye it is about him I cannot help my feelings. I cannot go on the mission with him for fear of distracting him from the war. And now after what had happened at the Agaeti Blodhren, I fear he does not like me anymore than a friend." She told her.
Nasuada looked like she was about to say something when she was cutoff. "Arya you must be as blind as a bat if you think he doesn't like you more than a friend. He just had hidden his love better than you." Said Angela as she came out from nowhere. Arya turned around confused and saw her.
"Why does he hide his emotions though?" asked Nasuada.
"I made him swear to stop pursuing me lest we could not be friends anymore. This was before I knew I loved him." Arya replied.
She then heard a a loud roar and screams of scared people, and looked up and saw Thorn and Murtagh coming towards the Varden incampment in Feinstar. They all raced back to the Varden incampment to see Eragon and Saphira taking flight with Blodhgarm and the elves in tight pursuit.
Arya raced after them.

So how was the real chappy. CC [constructive criticism] needed.
