Eight Wizards gaped as a skeleton was instantly burned to a crisp. Salem murmured as dust rained, "Well, that was a surprise!"

"What is it?" JD asked.

"A dragon, son."

"A dragon?" Ezra squeaked.

"We're leaving now."

"How do you know, Sir?"

"Yeah. How can you be so sure that's what it is when I can't smell a thing down here?" Josiah sniffed.

"Because nothing else blows fire like that in their sleep!"

Huge roars shook the underground cave. The Wizards paled as the dragon began to stomp out of the side corridor. Their teleporter arrived just in time and whisked them to safety.
