Emma Quickly drew the one Weapon she had managed to conceal- an Iron dagger. Jexak sighed
"You won't' get anywhere like that." He muttered, entering a fighting stance. The gauntlets then seemed to glow. A slight whirring sound was heard, and the gauntlet 'hands' extended from the base like hungry snakes. The dragon roared, and charged up his fire. Jexak willed his Gauntlets to form a shield, and a web of metal quickly took shape. By the time the fire hit, the web had become more secure than a fortress wall. Shuddering with the weight, Jexak unravelled the shield and rushed the dragon, almost becoming invisible in the process. The dragon responded by lunging with one of its huge hind legs. It should have been a guaranteed hit, but Jexak summoned a black rift and teleported right on top of the beast. He thrust himself several feet into the air, fusing together his gauntlets into a heavy mass of metal. He dropped down like a boulder and crashed straight through the dragon's skull with an almighty thump. He ran back towards Emma.
"Are you okay?" He asked
Emma failed to answer. She was just too awestruck. Jexak turned back towards the dragon, and was surprised to see that it appeared to be melting. The smoke-like energy gathered above the corpse, and bolted toward Emma. Before Jexak could stop it, Emma had already been hit. However, she did not seem to be affected by it. Jexak Understood what was happening.
"Hmm. You are more than I anticipated." Jexak told Emma "Yet my advice still stands. I shall take my leave now…" Jexak paused. He handed her a dwarven sword. "Take this. It may not be much, but it may help." Jexak then opened another rift in front of him, stepped through, and disappeared.
