Screw it. I’d fight without flying and weapons, then.
“I warned you, motherfuckers!” I heard Denise yell.
Poor Denise, stuck up there with dozens of murderous witches and God-knew-how-many magically venomous snakes. I had to get to her. Right now.
I started climbing up the cliff wall. Jagged rocks sliced up my hands, making my grip slippery from blood. I didn’t care. All that mattered was killing Morgana.
The cliff suddenly shuddered while large rocks struck my head and bashed into my body. The heavy barrage made me lose my grip. I stopped my fall by shoving my hand into a crevice hard enough to shatter bones. Pain screamed through me, but now I was anchored to the cliff wall, and I ducked beneath the next onslaught of rocks.
What was this? An earthquake? We were in California; it was possible. Or was this more of the witch’s tricks?
My bet was on the witch. “Is that all you’ve got, Morgana?” I shouted. “If so, I’m still coming for you!”
No answer except screaming. Hmm. That didn’t sound like Denise. Instead, it sounded like several of the witches.
Another blast of rocks pelted me, and the cliff wall next to me crumpled before sliding off onto the beach. Shit, maybe this was an earthquake. I crab-crawled away from the growing hole, avoiding the worst of the landslide. Then, I raced toward the top as fast as I could. Two minutes later, I heaved myself over the still shuddering ledge…and stared.
I’m hallucinating. Wow. Ashael’s blood is good shit.
A grayish-green dragon stomped after a group of witches. Every step from the massive beast made the ground tremble, and its thick, whiplike tail swept aside the snakes that tried to swarm it. When one of the witches got too close to its flank, a huge wing snapped out and flattened her.
Another witch grabbed a snake and hurled it at the dragon. The viper latched onto the dragon’s neck while thin, shiny drops rolled down its thick scales as the snake tried to pump its magically derived venom into the beast.
The dragon’s roar blasted the hair back from the nearby witches. Then, its head snapped out with surprising speed. For a second, all I saw was the bottom halves of the witches’ blue robes because the dragon’s thick head blocked the rest of them. Then, the dragon reared back up, clenching several big, blue, bloody forms between its teeth.
That’s when I realized I wasn’t hallucinating.
Back away from her, or I swear I will turn into a dragon and eat every last fucking one of you!Denise had said two days ago. Morgana and the others had laughed, but no one was laughing now.
Except me.
“Ha ha ha ha! Oh, it’s on now, bitches!”
