The Adventure of Lauren Macrof

Chapter 11

I started to panic, for how have I could done this? Did the wizard know about this? Was there something he was hiding? Oh yeah, of course he was hiding something. Ok, lets get back to panicking because what else am I supposed to do in a situation like this that usually is impossible?! But once more, the power of the dagger rushed through me and it  felt like my doubt was left behind on the ground and freedom and power was renewed. I was surging through the air not a feeling I'm familiar with but it felt good, really good. I was heading for its chest and to it, I was just a fly, but what it didn't know  was that I was seriously deadly. 

               I held the dagger out in front of me, closed my eyes and wished. Then I felt a big jolt and soon I was flying through the air from being swatted away by the dragons wings but I regained control and sped as fast as I could toward the thing and closed me eyes again, wished even harder and then heard a scream mixed with a groan and a really loud thump. But as that spread hope for me I soon realized, with me eyes still glued shut from fear, that if I killed the dragon or what ever it is, wouldn't I go down with it? So I opened one eye, then the other and realized that the ground was still 40 feet below me! And I soon descended and saw the dragon lying on the floor, dead.

                People were clapping and hugging for I had experienced  adventure, and become a hero. My sister greeted me but then I noticed something, " Where's Maxwell?" I said uneasy. The I heard a scream and the flapping of wings, I looked up, the sky still dark, and saw a flailing figure being carried off and I realized those little minions of it  were not destroyed after I killed their master, and I was set out on another journey, to save Max.
