Chapter 18: Queer Mercenary

14 January 5555
Rubyworth Forest
[Zach McCarthy]

The snake on the man's tie hissed ferociously, the dragon has recovered from the Draco Mind Freeze spell that Zach has employed on it, it glared ferociously at dragonslayer, then at the man with the Axe.

The stranger's Axe had now transformed into a Halberd with a Skull at the other side of the weapon. Both men took one last look at each other as if attempting to convery a battle plan against their gigantic, scaled foe, Zach leapt onto his trusted horse and began charging up both his hands with his Cryokinesis (Ice Magic), although it might only last him for the next ten minutes, Zach hoped it would at least prove to be useful against the dragon. Paladin leapt towards the dragon, showing no signs on fear while the mecernary rushed towards the dragon with his Halberd, showing no signs of fear, ready to deliver a clean blow towards it's leg while the dragon was occupied with Zach.

The dragon bared its fangs and heat was gathered in it's mouth, it was preparing to fire a fireball toward's Zach! However before the dragon could expect it, Zach has already launched a gigantic ball of ice into the dragon's mouth, carefully estimating the size of the ball so that it would lodge directly into the dragon's fangs after being melted from the amount of heat gathered within the dragon's throat, the moment the Ice ball was being lodged into the beast's mouth, the man with the serpent tie swung his halberd toward's the dragon's left foreleg, crippling the huge monster causing a blood to splatter across the man and its surroundings while Zach had leapt off his horse for more airtime and has made a gigantic Ice hammer and slammed it hard on the side of the dragon's face, causing a few of the beast's teeth to fall out as it's teeth was already lodged into the Ice ball that Zach had created beforehand, it was a perfectly synchronised attack, the Dragon knocked itself against the walls of the cave again.

"Lets make a break for it now!" Zach said as he landed back on his horse and galloped for the exit. "Wait for me lad!" The mercenary said as he took out a handkercheif and walked over to the exit while wiping the bright red dragon's blood off his face, the serpent that has been used for his tie hissed in excitement. Giving off almost an eerie feeling.
