Book 5: Chapter 53
Gren sank her teeth into Kondras shoulder, and Kondra sank her teeth into Grens shoulder in return. Are you tired? Kondra asked, her voice muffled.
Im just getting started, Gren said, her mouth barely moving. She scratched at Kondra, and the two dragons rotated as their tails thrashed about, trying to wrap around the others body.
Kondra exhaled out two jets of steam from her nostrils. Im just getting started too, she mumbled and pulled her neck back, attempting to rip a chunk of flesh off of Gren. Gren thrashed her head from side to side, biting and releasing Kondras shoulder repeatedly. Sparks flew as her teeth grinded against the holy dragons scales. Without warning, a huge force crashed into the both of them, and they were launched through the airstill entangledand smashed into a wall.
Gren and Kondra grunted and relaxed their jaws, letting go of the other dragon. They climbed to their feet and made space by slapping each other away with their tails, their motions nearly identical. Their eyes narrowed at the third party, an ocean-blue dragon who was glaring at them with golden eyes.
What are you doing? Gren asked. Why did you attack us?
Kondras brow furrowed. Vur? She glanced at Gren. What is Vur doing here?
You know him? Gren asked and raised an eyebrow. He came here with Grimmy. As for why hes still here, Im not sure.
Apologize, Vur said and snorted. You attacked me while I was sleeping.
Kondra cleared her throat and took a step to the side, distancing herself from Gren. It was Grens fault. If you want someone to apologize to you, it should be her.
Vurs eyes shifted onto Gren. The cursed dragon furrowed her brow and looked at Kondra. The holy dragon was looking away with her neck stretched out, her head pointed at an angle towards the ceiling as if there was something interesting on the wall. Gren followed Kondras gaze, but there was nothing up there.
Vur narrowed his eyes and stretched his neck further, increasing the intensity of the laser beam. However, it didnt seem to do anything, so Vur stopped and frowned. Whats that? he asked.
A sealed evil, Gren said. She slapped her paw against the ground again, and the hand spread its fingers. It curled its middle finger and pressed its thumb against it, pointing the other three fingers at Vur. There was a sound akin to thunder as the hand flicked its finger, shooting a shockwave at Vur. It struck him, and he exploded.
Holy smokes! Emile shouted. Vur died again!
Susan slapped Emiles head with her wing. Thats Moms technique, stupid.
Flames appeared behind Gren, and Vurs body materialized with his front paws outstretched. He grabbed Grens tail before she could react and braced himself with his hindlegs. With a grunt, Vur swung Gren like a baseball bat, slamming her into the wall. The black light in Grens eyes disappeared, and the black circle with the arm faded away. Vur heaved, and he swung Gren the other way, slamming her into the wall once again. She curled her body and lunged at Vur, but another pair of legs sprouted out of Vurs sides and blocked her from grabbing him.
What the? Question marks floated above Grens head before she was promptly slammed into the ground. Vur stared Gren in the eyes without responding. He lifted her above his head once more and grunted as he braced himself.
Im sorry! Gren shouted. Im sorry, okay!? Put me down, please!
Vur snorted and released Gren, dropping her onto the ground with a thump. He nodded and sat on his haunches. Dont let it happen again.
Grens expression darkened. She glared at Kondra. No wonder why the aggressive holy dragon didnt want to fight Vur. You couldve warned me about his six legs.
Kondra blinked. I didnt know he had them though.
