I ignore the instinct to turn and run, never looking back. Instead, I tighten my grip around my sword, my knuckles turning white as I grip onto the leather hilt. Before we came here, I added a lethal poison to the blade of the sword. It's impossible to see, and it won't come off unless I put it back into my inventory and separate the poison and sword. One cut from this, and it'll be the end of the dragon. The only thing that could save it is one of my potions, but of course, I'll only be using that for me and my friends.
The dragon let's out a loud roar, sending flames in our direction as it does. I bring my arms in front of my face to shield myself, but to my surprise, I remain unscathed. I lower my arms to see a shield in front of me, one much like the shield Jungkook used in the man hunt game. The dragon still stares right through our souls, so I'm sure it can still see us. This shield must not be used to cloak, it's one to protect us from outside attacks. I silently thank him, relieved that someone like him has our backs. We might actually get through this.
The beast snarls at us, showing off it's large, sharp teeth. I'm sure if it got to us, it could tear us to shreds. Yoongi, who stands by my side, shows no sign of intimidation. Hoseok lets out a loud roar cry, and starts to charge towards the creature, starting the plan Namjoon created on the way here. Under no ordinary circumstances would Hoseok be the first to run into a dangerous situation like this. I know that he's probably cursing us all as he runs to the dragon, wishing he had any other part in the plan besides this one.
Despite the danger we face, I chuckle remembering how Hoseok whined and fought with Namjoon as he formed his plan.
"Are you insane?" Hoseok yelled at the boy, "You're all conspiring to get me killed aren't you?"
"We're not trying to kill you. Just trust the rest of us to follow through with the plan and everything will be fine," Namjoon reassured him. Hoseok reluctantly agreed, but only after trying to volunteer everyone else in the group to do the job instead.
The dragon lets out an annoyed huff as the boy continues screaming and running towards him. It whips it's tail around, aiming to hit the boy, but at the very last minute, Hoseok is teleported by Jungkook, out of it's way, and rematerializes him to a spot above the dragon in a tree. While the creature is confused as to where the boy went, Hoseok throws a dagger at the dragon. The weapon slices through the air, searching for a victim to plunge through. It finds it's target; the long neck of the beast. A deafening roar of pain comes out of the dragon. I didn't think the small weapon would be able to do very much due to it's thick scales, but it must have done some damage.
The dragon turns around to find where the knife came from. When it sees a terrified Hoseok clinging for dear life in the trees, it lifts one of it's arms to claw at him. "Jungkook, hurry," the boy yells worriedly. Just as the dragon's claws hit the tree, Jungkook teleports Hoseok back to safety. I watch as the dragon breaks the tree that Hoseok was just in. The tree snaps loudly, and the top half goes flying. Hoseok's jaw drops as he stares at the damage done by the dragon.
