The only thoughts in Eldor's head at the moment were something to do with falling and dying, he was rather surprised when he suddenly saw an egg being hurled at him but thankfully caught it in time. He saw Kastron trying to lure away the dragon by making the sound Emmalinda does whenever she cries with a bucket atop her head, he turned his attention back to the ship, they were getting closer! He could already make out the unmistakable form of the Aunt..... or maybe it was the captain, he couldn't quite tell which.

The dragon chased the skinny legged egg stealer for a while, for he seemed quite insane and the dragon thought he would do him a favor by ending his misery and dropping him nicely in the volcano. He would probably want to eat him afterwards. Kastron thought his idea was a great success, although he knew he was running out of free ground. He switched strategies and ran through the dragons legs.

Eldor was loosing speed as he got to flatter ground, pretty soon he stopped altogether. He turned around still holding the egg and saw Kastron running in the OPPOSITE direction. Eldor smacked his for head, ''Why you pickle eared sausage lips,'' he screamed at the top of his lungs. He didn't really expect the boy to hear him, all he wanted a way to vent his feelings.

Maybe that last thing Eldor said completly went over Kastrons head, literally and figuratively, for the shout was so loud it broke out a small avalanche, however, you will do well to remember that there was someone on this trip with ears seemingly specifically designed for things that weren’t at all there bussines. By that description I am, of course, indicating Emmalinda. While Kastron ducked under some snow in attempt to hide, then running again, she was busy calling out Eldor with HER special line of insults, and by no means attempting to hide his position from the ever bad tempered dragon. “Why you louse headed flat nosed looking glass shattering dodo skinned earwig!”, she shouted, pointing and shouting and dancing about in a rage. “I’ve had enough of your——— VASPERACIOUS mockfoolery!!! Behead him!!!”, she ordered at somebody, anybody. Shamus lay on the floor passed out from his rituals, which had started to melt the snow. Weedsworth lay ten feet away in a hazy unconscious trance mumbling,”no NOT the belt…” Gereway was trying to figure out where to put the polar bear head aunt had given him charge of. You may notice that Emmalindas insults made absolutely zero sense, but at least they were more more sound than her sense of human decency.

Eldor looked on in shock of the small avalanche he had summoned, then his face turned into a smug smile, ''huh, didn't know I had that in me.'' Turning he heard Emmalinda's barage of insults, ''what! And I thought you liked me!'' he said incredulously, ''some loyalty you have.'' He started running to escape the dragon, but instead of running away, he started running towards Emmalinda.

The dragon at the moment was trying to figure out which one of theses weird little chicken wire dimwitts to fry first, and considered the one that was making peculiar and annoying squeaky sounds. Kastron caught the dragons glance and started running to and from it teasingly. The dragon got very annoyed at that, for having loud humans run around you is very much like that annoying mosquito in your bed. However, for once it decided to go after the one with what the dragon knew to be the egg.

When Eldor realized that the dragon was now turning its attention toward himself, Eldor jumped four feet into the air before he landed already in a running posture towards the ship, he hoped Kass would think of something but he didn't know if it was already a lost cause, it is near impossible to stop a mother from retrieving her baby. ''Linda,'' he yelled, ''are you still looking for a knew pet,'' he asked referring to the mother dragon.

Emmalinda opened her mouth and was about to let an earthquake off the stables for getting a nickname, but the sounds caught in her throat as she for the first time paid any form of attention to the very upset looking dragon that was speeding in her direction. Then, she found her voice again. "AUNT!!!!!!! DELIVER ME!!!!!!!!" KAstron meanwhile was trying everything in his power to keep the dragon from getting its egg back, going so far as to pulling on its ever lashing about tail. The dragon kept pounding its way forward, swinging its tail this way and that, trying to be rid of this mosquito human. Kastron resorted to hitting the tail, which admittedly did more damage to his already blue fist than to the dragon, until his fist managed to alight upon the spot he had bitten earlier. With a snarl of fury the dragon turned and gave a loud roar. We humans take it as roars but these were the exact dragonese words of the dragon: "Why of all the incompetent Rush polka dancing turky legs! Unhand my tail ye pesky little blood sucker before I unleash all my fury upon the!!!" Kastron had nothing better to do at the moment, so he screamed back at the dragon, which probably wasn't such a good idea. His shout by some coincidence also translates into dragonese, and here is said translation. "Come unahnd me yourself you aunt slipper snout!" The dragon thought this over, rather surprised. "Alright then.", it said. "You asked for it!" Antd with that it picked up Kastron and began carrying him towards the opening of the volcano.

Eldor looked at the dragon who was carrying Kass away, then at the egg, ''oh why can't you hatch right now, you've caused so much trouble you could at least help us out of it,'' the egg of course said nothing.

Kastron was not having fun at this point. In fact, he was semi sure this would be his end, and was trying his best in trying to get the dragon to put him down. The dragon was fiercly determined to end this pesky human, when aunt Pessilys arived on the scene. "Hey, what in thunderation is going on here!!!", she shouted in her usual comanding tone. ""Bring Kass back here ye overgrown seal chicken!"

The dragon in her surprise dropped Kastron but she soon recovered him in a tighter grasp, she was very unsure of what to do. ''You tell it Aunt,'' Eldor cheered.

Aunt at this point was very mad, not just at the dragon, but also at Kastron for getting caught BY the dragon, so she took her largest greasy cast iron frying pan in her left hand, and her oversized oar in her right hand, and she carried a large fishnet between her teeth. In short, she was a terrifying sight to behold, and Shamus, who had regained his conscience seconds ago passed out again. Kastron at this point feared Aunt more than the dragon, so he clung on to it and tol it to keep flying, which the dragon did not understand, of course.

Eldor did the only thing that could be done at this point, stooping down he gently set the egg and the ground before proceeding to make... a snowball. He packed the missile very tightly before releasing it at the dragon who was still unsure as to what she should do.

The snowball hit the dragon square in the face, and it was temporarily blinded. Kastron used this chance to break free and make a run for it, making his way back towards Eldor. Aunt meanwhile was charging at the dragon like a battling ram.

Silently Eldor cheered Kastron on, he would have yelled but all this strain on his lungs was making him hoarse. ''I got to see this,'' he said in a subdued voice once Kastron had come up.
