  “Fly, Raolcan! Fly!” I yelled.

  He leapt into the air, climbing as fast as he could. I held Leng tightly in my arms, hoping his harnesses held. All I saw was clouds above us and then Raolcan began to level off, curving slightly as he did so. I risked a look below in time to see two fireballs hit Grandis Leman at once. He and Leepsain crumpled, fire dancing up and down their fallen forms. It was too late to convince the Grandis of anything. Too late to save his life. Across the field, Corrigan and Magika Hectorus stood with arms outflung.

  I’d never seen magic used before today and I never wanted to see it again.

  I heard beating wings gaining on us and my heart leapt into my throat. Was it Starie in pursuit? Ahlskibi pulled in level with us and I breathed out a long sigh of relief. How far could that Magika fling his fireballs? I didn’t want to find out. We needed to be out of sight as fast as possible.

  Raolcan reacted to my thought, swooping low to dive over the side of the cliff and out of view from the humans. Ahlskibi mirrored him and together we swept low so that the trees seemed to almost touch their bellies.

  “We follow the coast,” I said, unnecessarily. I felt shaken and afraid. I’d lost our leader and everyone but Leng all at once. And we’d had to abandon Nenebeph. None of this was right! “We’ll get as far as we can and then see what we can do for Leng. We can’t afford to stop. They have dragons of their own.”

  I didn’t have a map, and I’d never been anywhere but my tiny town and Dragon School. How would I find my way to the Ruby Isles?

  Trust me. I will get you to wherever you need to go.

  Tears pricked my eyes as I clung to Raolcan and Leng, hoping for nothing more than that we would all survive until nightfall.
