Denmark glanced at the bright, red lava beneath them. "Why did we come here, again?" he moaned. They were inside a volcano, walking across a rope bridge. "We're here because of you," Norway answered. "We were on a hike when you followed a black cat into this volcano. Seems this cat was suicidal."
"No, it turned into a person with a parachute!"
"Guys, calm down and shut up. How are we supposed to get outta here?"
The two men turned silent and stared at Finland, Sweden behind him. A few agonizing seconds of silence passed. "…What? What are you expecting?" Finland said, effectively breaking the silence. "We are still in the volcano, you know."
"Dan, this is all because of you. You're lucky we followed you because otherwise, you'll be alone."
"Well, there's the black cat-slash-person with me, isn't there?"
"Just keep moving across the bridge already, it's starting to get hot when we're right above lava." Sweden said.
Why do I feel like ripping these three people to shreds out of annoyance? Thought Finland, fingering his pocketknife in his pocket. Once they safely crossed the bridge, they sat down on the highest platform they could find. Surprisingly, on there was an abundant amount of food provided on another platform close to them. "Wow! Oi, Norway, there's an infinity amount of food here! Once you take something, it's replaced with another food!" Denmark squealed, quickly snatching a few packs of chocolate and munching on one. "How do you know it's not poisoned?" Sweden inquires. "Because uh... I just know that it isn't?" Denmark replies.
"Oh yeah, I think there are baby dragon eggs here. Once they hatch, they will stick around for, like, 30 seconds, then disappear. They have venom in their teeth like snakes, so you get bitten, and you get poisoned. Got it?" Norway explained. The other three nodded. "I don't know a cure for it yet, and over 30 seconds, and you become enchanted, and that requires magic."
"What if you step or fall into lava?" Sweden asks.
"You get burned. That should be obvious," Norway replies.
"The dragon eggs are basically everywhere, right? So that means we'll be running around in this volcano a lot," suggests Finland. "Are there any ways to kill those dragons?"
"Not that I know of."
"Aww, I really wanted to kill one..." Finland says. "I even brought a pocketknife. Hey, is that a baby dragon hatching over there?" The other three looked to where Finland was pointing. "Hey, it is!" Denmark says. He stared at the dragon until it disappeared into smoke. "You know, we still have to find a way out of this volcano." Norway tells him. "But let's figure that out after we've explored enough of this place. There seems to be quite some secrets lurking in this volcano." Finland and Sweden heard him and replied, "Sure, why not?" So they got up to explore.
