Sir Toby cursed and swung his blade in the general direction of Fred's
neck. Fred, however, foresaw this move and dodged, rolling off to one
side. He righted himself on all fours, in full dragon form. Sir Toby
slashed at Fred again, but Fred caught the blade in one of his foreclaws
and wrenched it from Sir Toby's grasp. He injured his claw in doing so,
but now his opponent was unarmed. Sir Toby, seeing no other alternitave,
turned to run.
Fred chased after Sir Toby (he could still move surprizingly quickly with an injured claw). He didn't want to hurt his childhood friend, even if he did mean him and the rest of his family harm, but he mustn't let him reach the king. If he let Sir Toby get out of the caves, he would be able to overtake him easily by flight, but that would probably attract both the King and the cave's dragon's attention. He had no other choice but to make sure he did not leave the caves. Toby was nearly out when Fred caught him. He picked him up by the legs and carried him for several hours through the caves, walking rather akwardly on three legs, to where he guessed was closer to the Aqualarian enterances. Guarding the way he came, he let Sir Toby go. He quickly fled down one of the nearby passageways. He had not been gone for a second, when a loud growl was heard and Toby came fleeing from that passage into another. Emerging from the passage Toby had been in, came a large emerald green dragon, and it didn't look happy to see Fred.
