Surviving Heroine
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 55694
|
As the dragon tried desperately to unfurl his wings to break his fall,
they struck against the side of the shaft. There was the sound of breaking
bones, the dragon's scream of pain, and the terrified screams of Shara and
the other redhead. (Astra was made of sterner stuff.) A few seconds later
Fred heard a heavy "thump", presumably the sound of the dragon hitting the
bottom. He couldn't see what had happened to Lisa; it was too dark down
the shaft.
"That was just about the bravest thing that I've ever seen," he said. "I think that the dragon must be dead - it seemed like a long way down - and I fear that your friend must be dead too." "I'm not dead yet!" came a cry from somewhere below. Fetching a torch, Fred was able to see that Lisa had managed to grab an outcrop twenty feet down, and was grimly clinging to it. "Are you all right?" he called down. "Yes, nothing worse than cuts and bruises, I think. But I can't hold on much longer."
