Her destiny is to defeat the evil Sorcerer Anca who wishes to colonize Earth with an army of dragons. Zerra reluctantly teams up with the Avengers.

10. Chapter 9

Chapter 9

It was too much Magic for any one being to possess.

"Zerra," a voice whispers.

I turn and see a wall of smooth, sheer obsidian. The voice…"Elder Shanahan?"

The rock begins to rumble and I dodge large chunks as they fall off. The rock is moving?

CRACK CRACK

Two huge slits appear in the rock. They open, rock rumbling and falling, to reveal two glowing yellow eyes. The eyes of a dragon. Suddenly the ground beneath me begins to shake. The ground becomes more distant as I realize the rock is moving up to form a tall tower so that I can be level with the eyes.

"The spirit of Shanahan. Here to guide you along your destiny."

I stand on the platform. "I see that you have found the Book of Magic. Good, but as you have already learned Magic is far more powerful than even you know. Remember Zerra it is an unpredictable form."

"But how do I learn to control it? I have no teacher."

"Then call one to you."
