Cerberus's heads nodded as they watched me point toward the door leading to the passageway. The heads kept looking back and forth between the two of you, watching for potential dangers. The two heads watched while the third kept looking at me, noticing that I wanted to move ahead and that Cerberus should stay silent if it made any noise. Cerberus's three heads kept their gaze on you, following my lead closely.

I started to walk down the stairs very slowly. As Cerberus walked behind me, I used a spell to cast on the guards. "Hmm, a little sleeping magic will do the trick," I said quietly. I started to sprinkle a little sleep and dust on each guard as I passed them. In a moment of silence, I almost tripped over my tail.

Cerberus watched as I successfully cast the sleep spell on the guards. Cerberus looked impressed at my magical abilities and watched the guards slowly fall asleep. The room's quietness was deafening to Cerberus as his ears picked up every little sound and movement I made. Cerberus's lips curled up softly, and its eyes softened as it saw me tripping over my tail a little.

I looked back and softly chuckled. "I'm okay," I whispered. We reached the door once the last guard was down for the count. "Here we are. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly from here on out. But you still have to be careful and quiet."

Cerberus's eyes continued to soften as I chuckled to myself. Cerberus understood the need to be quiet, and Cerberus's body shifted a little, becoming completely still. The tail and serpentine tail of Cerberus kept swinging slowly back and forward. Cerberus's breath slowed and became more profound as it waited for me to open the door.

I opened the door, and a tunnel with torches on the wall went down. "Come, they will wake up soon." I used another type of magic and created one that allows Cerberus to be like an average-sized dog, allowing them to fit better through the door frame.

Cerberus nodded as I used my magic to shrink Cerberus's size. Once it was shrunken to the size of an average dog, Cerberus's eyes softened once again. Cerberus slowly nodded in approval as it fit well through the door frame. Cerberus's three heads stayed close to me, watching my every move closely. Cerberus's bodies kept close to me, too, following me through the tunnel. Cerberus's eyes perked up as it noticed the torches on the tunnel's walls.

Cerberus growls, expressing its protectiveness and loyalty to me.
