The trio and Princess Dorathea were in a room of where everything still seemed dull, as if Aragon was still in control of it. The specific room had walls and carpet of dark purple, even the rims and columns of the place had that dark purple with a lighter highlight around it. Dora led them to a huge metal square object, which was placed into the room. Danny and Sam stared at it with caution, while Tucker looked at it with awe, seeing what marvelous thing it could be, for it's basic shape.
Danny and Tucker went to the sides of the square, while Sam walked to the only available side, as Dora was on the side of a grey control panel. Dora had pressed a button and sudden mechanical noises then came from the metal object. A sudden square door was opened and a level that had smaller objects came up to replace the level of the opening door. Sam took a step back, nostril twitching, seeing what the smaller objects were.
They were instruments to take animal samples, which made Sam gave a low groan of protest. Dora looked up at Sam, seeing her reaction, "If we can find a way to transform Sam back to her human self, I would need to take samples of the dragon.".
"And what if there is no way to tell if she can?" Tucker asked.
Dora's expression then turn sad, as her head went to the direction of the floor, "Then she is stuck in this form."
Sam gave a bigger groan, as a claw went on her snout, looking distraught, making. Danny looked at Sam, seeing her pain. He turned to Dora, "I'm pretty sure there is a cure, if I can turn to a ghost and human, then Sam can be human too.", Sam lowered her claw, looking at Danny before Tucker.
"Wait, do you know what Aragon could be doing?" Tucker questioned again.
Dora sighed and explained, "No, but I can tell you what had happened. We placed my cruel brother in the dungeon cells, and took his power. But somehow, he escaped, took his power and mine, so now, I cannot help if he comes back."
Danny gave a hmm, hand on his chin until he snapped his fingers, "Well did he drink anything or something to infect Sam?". Dora shrugged and sighed again. Danny looked at Sam again, "If only she can talk, so we can know what happened."
"Well, I think she can talk, but she needs to learn how." Dora stated, then went to the supplies of instruments. "Alright, I need samples now." she said, picking up one instrument that was a picker, like to pluck hair. Sam looked uneasy again, her lipped curled up, showing her teeth, but she was silent. When the face muscles were calm, Dora slowly walked to the dragon, being aware of how dangerous it would be to come close to a dragon, and possibly can't run in a royal dress.
Dora gestured Sam to raise her left fore leg and she obeyed. With slow, steady, fingers, the picker slowly went into the scales of the dragon. Sam thought, Well, this isn't so- she gave a sudden roar of pain, as Dora plucked a small scale from her. Sam shook her hand scale covered hand as she finished bad.
"Thanks to technology," Dora said "we can examine the samples as well.". She looked at Sam again, seeing she was snarling at the small pain on the hand. Dora placed the sample in a small plastic back and said "Don't worry, just a few more samples of scale, hair, and maybe saliva.". Sam's ear flattened, giving a growl, thinking Oh great…
