To RadiantBeam: Yeah, pretty much

To melissalovesdogs: I got the words from an on-line Latin to English, English to Latin Dictionary. I can't remember what it meant but it was something like come out, break the spell... etc. something like that.

To HORSELUVER101: Thanks!

Chapter Eleven

"Yo, listen y'all, the Dark Dragon's back an' ready to attack, anyone able to fight get over here, we need an army to help defeat the Dark Dragon," Violet yelled so all would hear.

"How do you know we'll be able to fight the Dark Dragon?" asked a cat.

"I don't," Violet said, "But I do know that that shouldn't stop us form tryin'. Now, who's with me?"

There were mumblings from the crowd. "Don't you think the Dark Dragon is too strong to be defeated by now?" asked a griffin.

"Oh, come on! Are y'all givin' up already? You didn't even start fighting yet!" Violet said, "Just try, we still have a chance of bringin' the jerk down! Just believe you can do it."

"Boy, that sounds clichéd," Violet added, "but that ain't the point! Come on can you imagine what'll happen if DD took over? He'll either destroy or hypnotize anyone in his way. Freewill might not exist anymore if he took over." She crossed her arms and waited for their response.

"I'll join your army against the Dark Dragon!" said a wolf.

"Me too," said another wolf.

"Good, anyone else? We can't exactly bring down DD's army with a few wolves." said Violet.

"I'm in." said a griffin.

The griffin nudged another griffin next to him, "I'm in," the other griffin said hastily after seeing his companion glare at him.

"Count me in." said a dog.

"Me too,"

"I'll help."

"So will I!"

"We'll join you, dragon!"

"Me too!"

"Me three!"

"Me uh… what comes after three?"

"Four, you dummy!" growled a tiger.

"Fine! Me four!"

Soon all those in the crowd volunteered to join the army. Violet nodded, a smile on her face, "Now listen up, go back to your homes and gather up anything you can use to fight- weapons, wands, potions and whatnot, got it?"

"Ma'am, yes, ma'am!"

Violet stuck her tongue out, "Yeah, whatever, just don't call me that!"

"Sure, dragon."

"Now, that sounds better!" Violet smiled

"Okay… uh… um… didn't you see an army of geeks just pass by?" Jack said to a crowd gathered around him.

"Well, duh! Do you think we're blind, dragon?" asked a goblin.

"That was the Dark Dragon's army an' if you don't help stop him he's gonna take over the world!" Jack said.

"So, you want us to join your army? Is that what you're saying?" said someone from the crowd.

"Yes."

"You want us to help you?"

"Yes!"

"You want us to fight the Dark Dragon?"

"YES!"

"You want us to get killed?"

"Ye- no! NO! NO! NO!" Jack said getting annoyed, "What I do want is for ya'll to think! If the Dark Dragon takes over the world, you won't be able to move without his permission!"

"Kid, is this a practical joke?"

"NO! What is the matter with you people? DD wants to take over the world and destroy all human beings!" Jack yelled angrily.

"Whoa! Cool it hothead! Fine we'll join you, but what's in it for us?"

Members of the crowd nodded in agreement.

"This is so annoying!" Jack muttered, "The Dark Dragon is one bad dude! You don't want him to win do you?" he yelled.

"Kid does have a point," a hippogriff muttered to his companion, "All right, we'll join your army," he said.

"Finally! Anyone else wanna join?"

"Fine," said a reluctant cat.

"Yeah, we'll join,"

"We'll bring the jerk down… or at least try."

Soon all decided to join, though some reluctant ones were persuaded by their friends.

"Okay, finally, now, what I want you all to do is go back to your homes and get anythin' you can fight with or use to win," Jack instructed.

"This just might work!" Jack whispered happily.

Yeah, I know, totally short, maybe even a bit pointles, but I had a major writer's block, anyway, review and please be gentle.
