Events Move Ahead Quicker Than Expected

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 24033

Minestus was aware that something had interferred with his magic in the area, but he didn't know what. He was a very lazy dragon, and the enchanted armour he had placed on Astra had probably been too hastily conjured. How the glider's voice could possibly interfere with his magics - as it had been since her arrival into his dominion - was beginning to anger him. What exact spell she had disturbed with her song this time, he wasn't so sure, but the fact that she could disturb any spell was an outrage! This was the second time she had interferred with his magic by simply using her voice! He now knew who held the latent potential for weilding powerful magicks, it was this wretched little glider.

Two great plooms of smoke spouted from the dragon's nostrils, and it's great catlike eyes went from yellow to fiery orange. "I THINK INSTEAD YOU SHOULD KEEP YOUR FILTHY LITTLE MOUTH SHUT NOW, IF YOU WANT A QUICK, CLEAN DEATH!" Minestus's voice thundered through the Arena, causing the very ground to tremble. "YOU ARE AN ANNOYING LITTLE FLY, AND I AM GOING TO SQUASH YOU LIKE ONE!" The dragon lunged forward, thrashing it's tail at Checker's for a second time. This time the glider didn't have the advantage of the lantern's light, and she was sent hurling accross the chamber from the violent force of the impact. She was knocked out cold under a pile of rubble.

Things were going a little too fast for Minestus's style, it was just that the litte fly had actually spooked him for a moment! He would have to kill her immediatly, her voice was too much of a wild threat. The time for beguilement was over. These gliders were a little stringy, but they made a good snack - their blood was sweet. He would still have a couple of Dragonslayers to toy with before he destroyed them as well. Lifting one of it's great forearms in the air, it prepared to crush Checkers with one fell stomp.

Fred had reached the end of the tunnel above. Seeing the predicament Checkers was is in, he did the only thing he knew he could do. Distract the dragon. Just in time, he began shouting names at the beast.
