The conflict in this book all started when the a random person comes out of no where and describes himself as the Dragon Hunter and starts hunting for the stone when heard that there was one more dragon alive. Now the Evil Dragon Hunter is at a fake stone and threatens them to surrender or he will destroy the stone, but what the Hunter didn't know is that if he broke the stone a baby dragon would be born from it.
Pg. 228 "Surrender or I'll destroy it, NOW!" yelled Hunter,
"Just drop it and maybe, just maybe, we can work things out,"
"Never, until I have head,"
I chose these quotes because after they talked an explosion happened and the stone fell and broke but what they didn't know is that the stone was just an egg the real stone is still a big mystery and now they have a long journey to go on, to find the real stone and protect it from the Hunter or anyone else that might threaten them.
The conflict ended when there conversation ended because now the Hunter thinks that the stone was destroy but he still won't stop until the dragon is gone, so they will have problems getting away from but also, he might know that stone was a fake, meaning the dragon isn't the only one in danger.

Dragon Keeper
Title: Dragon Keeper
Author: Carole Wilkiinson
Pages: 331
In the time of the Han Empire in ancient China , the last remaining dragon is in danger of being killed by the cruel Emperor. A nameless orphan with no past and an uncertain future becomes his unlikely ally. The young orphan soon discovers that it is her destiny to protect the aging dragon dragon and his mysterious purple stone. Chased by an evil dragon hunter and a powerful sorcerer, their adventure is not easy. Each must learn to help and understand the other if they are to survive. To succeed in her task the young orphan must reach deep within herself to find courage she never knew existed. No longer can she be the timid, shy orphan she once was. She is now the one, true Dragon Keeper.
Pg. 63, "What was in front is now behind." I chose this quote because I think of when she (orphan) was poor and homeless which is now in the past, cause now she is a protector of dragons and no longer homeless because she considers Ping (the dragon) as her friend.
I believe that this is Person vs Person because she and the dragon are trying to get to the purple stone knowing that they are being hunter by a dragon hunter who wants to kill Ping the last dragon. Though she tries and protects Ping from the hunter knowing that she might die while protecting him becaus e that is how much she cares for him.

Title: Crazy Horse
Author: Russel Freedman
Genre: Biography
This book is about a native American named Kuchunka Witco who was a shy man and at some point became famous for being a Oglala Sioux warrior and a leader of his tribe. They started calling him crazy horse be his horse was literally crazy. He won so many battles including the Battle of Little Bighorn which Crazy Horse and his ally, Chief Sitting Bull led their combined army's to victory against the whites. Later on Crazy Horse was captured by and killed by the soldiers bayonet in
Fort Robinson on 9/5/1877.
Pg.121, "I see a time of seven generation, when all the colors of mankind will gather under the sacred tree of life and the whole earth will become one circle again." I chose this quote because when I read this I was thinking of all the different cultures will come together and make a treaty so there will be no more battles between them and find ways to make the world better.
I don't really know if this book would be a Person vs. Person or a Person vs Society because in the book it talks about the challenges Crazy Horse faced and tells how he is against society because he never felt that whites would be good to have peace with. He felt that they would do a lot of changes in the lokota tribe.

Comparing Characters
The characters that I'm going on compare are Crazy Horse and Eragon. I chose these 2 because they both us to be normal and then at some point in the books they both become leaders of an army.
The difference between these characters is that they both have different time zones and one is a biography about someone's life and the other isn't. Like how Eragon is in a time where dragons were alive and Crazy Horse was in a normal time with no aliens or dragons.
Pg.456 (Brisinger) "So you mean to tell me that Brom is my father." Said Eragon (shocked).
"Yes, the egg was meant for him. But instead it chose you because you were born on the day the egg was mentioned, but the egg had to be touched by someone that had blood of a dragon on there hands." Said Aria."
I chose this quote because this explained on how and why the ended up in the forest and hatched when Eragon touched it, it was because Brom put dragon blood on Eragon when he was gone so that he can someday become a dragon rider when he is ready.
Pg. 117 (Crazy Horse) "Upon Suffering, beyond suffering, The Red Nation shall rise again, and it shall be a blessing for a sick world. A world filled with broken promises, selfishness and separation... A world longing for a light again."
I chose this quote because it talks about a red nation which to the lokota tribe call their enemies and when I hear "The Red Nation shall rise against

Pirates of The Carribean: At Worlds End
Author: Elizabeth Rudnick
Title: Pirates of the Caribben: At Worlds End
This book is the last book of Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl where a war will rage on between all pirates and the army of the navy with the help of Davy Jones (Flying Dutchman) where they will battle to jones heart from the chest that lies within the pearl and now a war will wedge on between pirates, the navy, and the crew of the Dutchman and only one will win.
Pg. 353 "With his heart we have full control over the Dutchman and his crew, with there help we'll finally put an end to these pirates for good." Said Cutler Becket, filled with hope.
"And what about our agreement."
"Oh yes our agreement, guards take him away"
"NO! we had a deal." Said Norrington being taken away.
I chose these quotes because this shows that Cutler Becket doesn't care about anything else but power! which he now does over the Dutchman. But for how long?
I think that this story would be Person vs Society because this is a war between all navy and pirates.
And this war will decide which side will win and and one of the greatest battles of pirate history.
