Percy
I turn to hear Apollo screaming.
My eyes spot Alice crumbled on the cafeteria floor.

I shake her lightly.
I lift her up, off the floor.

The boy had collapsed already, and had been hauled away.

The school has fallen to anarchy lately, but Allie may have saved the school for me.
Today we were going to have a fight over it.
With Allie and I here, we can beat anyone.

I stand up, and realize Apollo is right there.
He wraps his talonned paw around my throat.

I choke.
I struggle, and feel my throat restricting.
I struggle more, my powers just below the surface.
So easy to use.

My throat is closed off now, and my body begins to vibrate with my caged power.
I set my friend down lightly, and grab the dragon by the wrists.

I see his eyes pulse to black.
He pins me to the floor.
I let go of the fraying rope.

I scream, "EVACUATE IF YOU WANT TO NOT DI..."

A fin covers my mouth.
Then, everyone rushes to leave.

Then, the last of the rope falls from my failing hands.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR......

I whisper to Violet, "Cover your eyes, my dear dragon. Take Allie, and run. When she recovers, tell her what happened in all truth. No embellishments, please."

Violet screams, "No!"
I bark, "Yes."
I see her eyes close.
She grabs Allie, and disappears into the sky.
Most dragons are.

My heart is nearly stopped.
I hold onto the final thread.
My heart beats too slow to notice it.

You see, as long as my heart beats, I can live off magic for a very long time without air.

Apollo doesn't know.

He smiles when my chest stops going.
My hand slips, and the string is dropped.

I close the dragons eyes anr my own with a spell right before the explosion sends him through the roof and into the sky with a horrible thud.

I wince, but soon fall still.
My magic is growing too strong for me to hold steadily.

They warned me.

I snatch the string, unable to draw it back.
Unwilling to let it go.

My magic grows stronger, the string grows too.

Soon, that small string is the size of an anchor rope.
I grab it firmly, hauling the rope a little bit.
Then, something rips the string my way.

I turn, and see a wolf tugging on the string with a passion from a cage.
I work my way to the cage, and unlock the cage.
Then, the rope falls slack.
A dragon is holding the other end.

It looks pissed.
It snarls, "Once you are done here, please rejoin the real realm."

It disappears after giving me the other end.
I walk away from the cage, wolf beside me.

I retired the end to a large rock with a single handle.
I grab the wolf, slinging him over my shoulders.
I slide down the rope, into a blinding flash.

I see a concerned face over me, and realize this is a coma.
A Mfo coma.

I try to show response.
My chest moves, and my sister starts to cry.
I see Apollo in a crumpled ball on the floor.
He is fine, by the look of him.

My Racer Stamp glows when I start reaching for magic.
My sister touches the mark, and her eyes grow wide.
She cries, "He's alive! He didn't die, Violet!"
Violet appears, tears in her eyes .

She nudges me, but I can't respond beyond reaching for magic.

I send a current between us, and she turns black again.
Our teams racing colours.
I want to smile, but can't.

I send the message, and she roars in alarm.
She rushes to my head, locking me into a grooming fit.
I try to get away, but I can't react.

My body shakes a bit, but it feels like a rope is around me.

I communicate this.
Violet roars again, and starts reading the shot.

We were taught how to free someone in a dead lock.
Violet fires at my face, and I feel my entire body go slack.
I stand up, and fall over to my hands.

A wolf like howl sends Violet reeling.

My were wolf form takes shape, and stares around in shell shock.

I howl, and hear many howls back.

I turn back in a flash.
I look to Violet.

She whispers, "I'm so sorry."
I ask what for.

Her body changes shape.
She turns into a pure white Chinese Light dragon.
I step back.

She glides to the boy.
She sighs, evil tints to her voice, "For thiissss, you blind fool."

Lilly stands up.
I scream, "Lilly no!"

Boom!

I scream.

I scream again and again.
I try to move, but falls under the deadlock again.

I scream while I can, and catch attention of three strangers into all black.

The one who comes to me whispers, "Ash Lava Dash, Percy. Sleep well. We have a long journey, oh yes we do."
