When the right arm moves, the left leg moves. He had been doing this for minutes until he got to the very top.
At the very top, he saw a rounded stone table attached to the bottom. With the light gleamed from above, a glowing object stood horizontal on the table’s top.
Vaeludar walked into the light and near the bright object.
The object was brightly shining the light’s reflection on it and it was hard to tell what it looked like. Vaeludar placed his hands on the shinning object and lifted as easily as lifting a feather. Moving it out of the light, it appeared short and nearly as long as the lower arm. It was a ten-white-armor-plated gauntlet with a ruby attached to the hand part of it. The figures were horned and spikey.
Finally, on his long journey, all the monsters that appeared in his way, moving from one unexpected place to another, he was now at the main goal: the armor artifact.
“At last,” shouted Vaeludar, excitedly. “I have finally found the armor artifact. Now, we can get back to the village and…” Vaeludar turned and saw Wonomi was walking toward a spear-axe weapon, with a great curiosity. “WONOMI, DON’T!” yelled Vaeludar.
But the hybrid’s voice wasn’t enough to stop Wonomi who grabbed the spear-axe with both hands.
“INTRUDERS!”
A voice in the sound of a Dragon, which Vaeludar thought to be one of the five Dragons, had echoed. The Dragon had awakened with the greatest anger, of the worst attitude when it comes to a Dragon’s love for treasure.
“Someone has invaded my territory! Any intruder who intrudes in my home shall DIE!”
Many rays of fire burst from the hill where Vaeludar stood on. The cavern crumpled and many rocks fell from above.
Vaeludar jumped down far down towards the lower steps and ran down when he landed. While he jumped downward, he looked at Wonomi dropping the weapon he grabbed and sank deep into the ground.
Marina, Flavius, and Galvin looked at Wonomi in anger but made no effort to end his life. But before they could see make their escape, the entrance they entered had rocks collapsing over it. Seeing no way out of the falling collapsing cavern, they were trapped.
Wonomi dashed toward the bridge of stones. Marina, Galvin, and Flavius were suddenly flopped into the air from the platform they stood on. They sailed in the air by the emerging rocks from their feet, making them fly to a high point and began to drop toward the boiling water.
Vaeludar felt nerves in his wings flinching as the staircase he was running on turned into a slope and he slid down while on his feet. He saw the slope’s end curving up like a slide. Widening out his wings, he jumped at the curvy end and started to fly. He caught a falling rock wide, big, and thin like a surfboard and attached his tail’s arrowhead (his tail’s pointy end) to it.
The arrowhead of his tail snapped off just as easy as ripping paper in half. Vaeludar flew with the surfing rock trailing behind him. He flew and got his falling companions on the rock.
After rescuing them, Vaeludar turned up and made a very sharp hundred-seventy degree angle. He now had to rescue Wonomi jumping on the stones
He stopped in horror that the stones he jumped on were sinking in the boiling water and the water level rising. He stopped at the last stone still floating above the waving water’s surface.
Vaeludar, who placed the gauntlet on the claws of his wings, dived down, hoping to grab the low-minded man who brought down a collapsing cave. He saw the water level rising closer to Wonomi. Vaeludar grabbed him just as the last stone sank quickly like a gofer diving in its hole. Vaeludar tossed Wonomi on the surfing rock with the other three and turned to see the water while flying in the air.
The water level began to rise higher than ever before. Then a body of a large, serpent-like Dragon emerged from the water’s surface. It was relatively the Ice Dragon, with blue scales instead of white scales; it must be a Water Dragon.
“You cannot escape me!” shouted the Water Dragon.
The Dagon’s voice wasn’t the same with the other voice; they had to be a second Dragon nearby. Vaeludar had no time to bother to wonder where a second Dragon was lurking. He still aimed at the one and only exit they entered from. He went flying at high speed away from the Dragon behind.
“Vaeludar,” yelled Marina, warningly.
“I know,” he yelled back, knowing what Marina and the others were seeing. Vaeludar drew closer to the blocked exit, but he turned and saw the Water Dragon flying after them with a large wave of the water rolling behind the Water Dragon.
Vaeludar turned back toward the collapsed exited and plowed through the rocks blocking the exit. The rock with his companions surfing behind him narrowly dodged the rocks he charged through.
Into the dark maze of tunnels, Vaeludar went flying as fast he could in any direction of the cave an instinct would spark in his mind. From left and right up and down, the hybrid did not slow down since water and a Water Dragon were right behind him.
Vaeludar was making many turns in many directions. He had no idea where to fly or move to, as long as there was no Dragon or water coming in front of him. He countered three falling rocks that hit the surfing rock and nearly banged his companions off it. He saw he was coming to a wide wall.
“That’s it we’re done for,” said Galvin.
“No, we’re not going up or right or left. We’re going DOWN!”
Vaeludar made a very, stern sharp downwards turn and
