Fawn'S POV
I sat on Angel's back. Not the best idea I ever had. I had to position myself a certain angle to sit comfortably on his back. Even then, it didn't feel right. Still, I had to admit, when was the first time, if ever, time to ride on a dragon? It's a rather different feeling than I would expect.
I always wanted to fly. Well, my wish finally came true.
"How long will this take?" Sparrow muttered, fiddling with his fingers.
"Would you tell that human to shut up already?" Angel muttered.
"No answer." I replied.
"Is it that, or something else?" Daisy asked, stroking the side of Angel's neck.
"Nope, nothing else, I'm guessing." Kai said, grinning. "Hey doesn't that look familiar?"
"Well, you stay here, I'll check." Cara murmured, and she leaped from the dragon's back. Her white, angel-like wings opened, white feathers and all outstretched, and she did acrobatic tricks before diving to the ground.
"Fawn, do you know what material does wings are? How do they stay together?" Sparrow asked, grabbing a notepad.
"Great, now you ruined the moment." I said. "You're supposed to be awed by this, not take notes."
Sparrow, in the meanwhile, did not listen to a word I said. He instead decided to continue scrawling notes and threw them into his backpack.
Meanwhile, Cara approached the portal with wariness, and watched every step she took. Suddenly, the already-too-familiar sound of a pressure plate clicked, and a net wooshed toward Cara. It snared itself on her wings, and she mumbled curses.
"Looks like the human got itself stuck." Angel mocked.
"Shut up Angel." I muttered
The dragon soared toward the ground, and I leaped from Angel's back and ran toward where Cara was lying.
"Just get into the portal." Cara said, tugging on the ropes.
"Nope, we'll do this the hard way." I said. "I'm bringing you."
I tried to find the end of the rope, and I made a circle which a large kind of animal would be able to fit through.
"Angel, would you mind helping?" I asked.
Although I was sure that he would retort something, or complain, he nodded and slipped his neck through the loop that I had created.
"Well, smarty-pants, what are we going to do now?" Kai asked, jumping off of Angel. "Dragon's huge, portal small."
I looked back at the portal and noticed she was right. The portal was only supposed to be an entry way for a person or two to go into, side by side. I looked at Angel. He was double the size of the portal, and only his head would fit through, if it even did.
"Well, we make it bigger obviously." I said, pulling out a stack of obsidian blocks. "Sparrow, could you tamper with the code real quick and change how big the portal has to be?"
"I guess." Sparrow said quietly, fiddling with some grass. He pulled out his computer, which was programmed to change the code of Minecraftia itself. He started typing in a few things, and after a minute or so of endless typing, he gave a wink. It was ready.
Using a diamond pickaxe my dad had given to me before I left, I started to break the portal. Note that this pickaxe would break things in a matter of seconds. After breaking apart parts of the portal, I started to build around it, making a portal just big enough for Angel to fit through and exhausting my obsidian stores.
Angel ran into the portal first, with Daisy and Kai grinning on his back. Sparrow meanwhile put his computer back into the backpack and dashed into the portal. I looked around carefully, then set some super-charged TNT down on the ground, I lit it before diving into the portal and leaping out the other side.
The portal exploded behind me, and using lightning-fast reflexes, Angel swept everyone beneath his wings and protected everyone from the incoming shards of obsidian.
