With a tiny tremble, the Minister whipped around and sank his staff into the earth, shouting, "Indespectus clypeus!"
His dragon allies fell to their knees as the round shield slid over their heads, coating their surroundings like doughnut icing. The stray dragons, attempting to locate the group once more, squawked in bewilderment and few in ovals.
"We're going to have to split up," With a scowl, the Minister murmured, "Trevor, Alessandro, and Sergio, you will fy up and try to hold them of." Max and Leon, you'll watch over me while I go into the cave and attempt to get the book."
"What the fuck happened?" Over the dragons' screams, Sergio cried, "I thought we made a deal with them."
"I was expecting this, men," the Minister moaned as he saw a figure atop one of the dragons. A better bargain was presumably used to entice them. It's not quite reasonable to have rogue dragons."
