Dragon's night

The Magic Within

Jamie and his mom run over to him and find he has reverted to his human form. They pull him out and the three of them head into the mine. They go to the shaft elevator and head down. They are met with a wonderous sight. It is a wonderland of geodes and crystals.

Diamonds line the walls, that are held up by huge crystals. Large emeralds and rubies form a crest in the center of the room. Michael’s mom tells Jamie “We need to put him there.” Jamie asks, “But why, he needs a doctor.”

She explains “He has used up all the magic he has. He will recharge there.” Jamie, though confused, pushes him there. Once he is in the center of the gems, nothing happens. Jamie looks like her “What’s going to happen now?” She answers “Well, we pray. See, at night his magic is limitless. But, he only has so much during the day. Especially since he isn’t fully grown into his dragon form.”

Jamie figures she should know “Well, then how does he do that?” She looks at him “He just need to embrace it.” They then hear the elevator squawking. They turn to see a severely burned Daniel. He screams “I haven’t killed this many dragons to fall to you.” Jamie and Michaels's Mom stood between him and his goal.

He gets to the floor and pulls out a small bag “He isn’t the only one with magic.” He eats a small piece of what looks like silver meat. Jamie screams “Wait dad don’t do that you will become a monster.”

Michaels moms ask, “What is that.” Jamie answers “It’s dragon meat purified in unicorn blood. The last person to get a small taste was Macbeth and he ended up going crazy.” Daniel eats the whole beef jerky size peace. His burns heal and then his skin turns grey.

His eyes turn yellow as he starts to grow. He ends up looking like a beast of old. He scoffs “Now I can defeat anyone.” Jamie looks at what her father has done to himself “I hope you're happy?” He smugly remarks “I am, I’ve always wanted to use this and now that there are no more dragons, I have no more reason to hold on to it.”

This confuses them both causing Michaels's mom to ask, “What do you mean?” Daniel shrugs “I guess there’s no harm in you knowing. With Lucifer’s death, there are no greater beasts to hunt. The few that are left are runts. There’s just no belief anymore.” He begins to run at the two of them when he feels a pain in his stomach.

He looks down to see Michael and he tells him “Move!” He brings his other arm across and knocks him into the elevator. Michael then stands up in his dragon form. He turns to his mom and thanks to her “I needed that.” He then turns his attention to Daniel. Daniel stands up “That all?” Michael smiles “Not even close.”

Jamie runs up beside him and Michael asks, “Are you going to fight with me?” She smiles “I’ve always been fighting him.” Michael pushes out his fiery wings, taking to the ceiling of the cave. He then dives on Daniel but gets swatted to the side.

Michael slams against the wall and Daniel begins wailing on him. Daniel then feels a pain on his leg. He turns to see Jamie with a blade, she found on the ground. Daniel turns and kicks at her. She evades and bounces on her heals to pierces him in the abdomen. Daniel is angered by the inconvenience, “I always hated girls, they never obey.”

He then pulls back to slam down on her, but Michael grabs his arms. Michael then pours fire down on his head. Daniel then bashes him on the ground. Confused now, Daniel begins to rampage around. Michael limps to Jamie “You got to cast the spell. I will hold him off as long as I can.” Jamie, with a look of concern on her face, tells him “If you keep fighting you will die.” Michael then gives her a kiss “Then take that, in case I can’t later.” He then runs right at Daniel.

The two clash making waves of dust fly off them. Jamie then turns to Michaels's mom and begins to cast the spell. For all his attacks Michael is only chipping away at him. Michael claws his back, but Daniel jumps backward pinning him against the wall. Michael pushes him off with his legs, just to be backhanded into the shambled elevator.
