Enter the Dragon

Fred's head was still spinning and he wasn't really with it, but Astra's voice was sufficiently authoritative that he obeyed her without question. There wasn't too much room, so he sat on the seat of the magical waste dispenser.

A moment later the dragon entered, in his human form of a handsome - but cruel-faced - middle-aged man. "So Princess, how are you today?" he asked.

In response, she said nothing but instead spat at him. Her aim was accurate. The dragon wiped spittle from his cheek and said: "If you are going to be like that, I shall make your life here less comfortable. I could remove your bed, or perhaps the waste dispenser and its privacy screen."

"Please don't do that," Astra said, alarmed that this would lead to Fred being discovered. "I'll behave."

1. "Very well."
2. "Too late." He cast a spell, and the screen and waste dispenser vanished. There was a crash of armour as Fred suddenly landed on the floor.
3. Before the dragon could respond, Fred decided to attack. He pushed the screen back, and rushed forward, brandishing his sword.
