Doormaze Drage The Orange World Part Three
Heat
Doormaze and Burn were almost drenched in sweat. Yet as far as they have traveled they had not seen a single drop of safe water! Yet they could see that Coalmine was a lot less affected than they were.
Must be due to her dragon side…
That was when her mind turned over the dream that she had when Dark Curse and Dark Destiny discussed turning her into a dragon.
Maybe it won’t be a bad idea after all. Maybe if I was a dragon then this heat will not be so insufferable.
‘Insufferable’? Ahh!
Suddenly she could feel the heat of her body becoming hotter and hotter and hotter. Her mouth felt dry yet she could feel it getting dryer and dryer. She tried to keep her mouth closed to keep in as much moisture as possible. But her lungs demanded more air forcing her to open her mouth and this caused her mouth to become dryer and dryer. Soon her tongue looked like a pink desert. Yet this dryness traveled on further and soon her throat became as dry as her tongue making her cough and cough. Her knees buckled and collided with the ground and she hit her chest on the ground.
“Doormaze!”
“Are you alright?”
She would have responded if she could break this coughing fit. Then after finally being able to stop, she looked up and could do nothing but shake her head. She felt weak as her lungs felt like it had been slashed by a sword.
They both looked at each other as Coalmine but her bottom lip. They both knew that they desperately needed to get out of this place. They had to find some safe water to drink and soon. Coalmine picked Doormaze up.
“Come on, we need to find where this place comes to an end.”
She nodded as they all walked on and on. Coalmine kept an eye on both of them as she walked on and on with her twin on her back. Yet she soon noticed that Doormaze was starting to become scarlet as she shivered on her back. Burn was also becoming like that too. Yet as they walked on and on Coalmine kept her eye on her too.
“How come you’re not as affected as Door’?”
She frowned.
“I guess it’s because I grew up on the streets. Soo I was born blind af the first time I used magic it was on my eyes, which gave me my sight. That must be why my eyes looked different. Then my parents left me on the streets. They called me Wick McKenzie back then. Then a gang found me and called me Burn Rosebush.”
She nodded.
“Why?”
“My eyes looked like they were burning and I was found under a rosebush.”
She nodded.
“Why did they do that? And where have you lived!”
“They’re Night Hunters and they hate magic and I lived in a cave until-something happened and I ended up in that monochrome world.”
She nodded as Doormaze fully collapsed and all went black.
She was soon looking directly at Dark Curse.
“I feel you watching me girl!”
“Sorry…”
“And communicate with me? How interesting…”
“I need help!”
“Oh? With what?” He asked with narrowing eyes.
“There is a place that we’re in. It’s hot and dry and I don’t know if we will be able to last long enough to get the piece.”
He nodded slowly as he took a moment to think.
“Only under one condition.” He spoke as he showed her a gold and black goblet.
She looked down at it with disgust and dread yet uneasy too.
“Know what it is?”
“A potion that will turn me into a dragon?”
He nodded.
“Can you make two?”
His eyes narrowed as he turned his head to the right for a moment. Then thrust his head close to her making her suddenly even more uneasy than she was.
“Why would you want two?”
“There are three of us. Me, Coalmine and Burn.”
He looked down and she was scared that he would reject her but then he nodded.
“Alright. I will make a second one. But take this one first. Then, in your next dream visit you will be taught how to bring the next one to this Burn girl. Now drink.”
She took it and lobbed it down before she had a second thought. Soon pain erupted all around her. She could feel her lungs split into two. She could feel the same in her guts. She could feel her head pounding.
She could feel herself coughing and coughing. She felt like she was on the verge of truly losing consciousness. Soon her eyes felt like they were on fire and she started crying tears of blood before the pain became too much and she blanked out.
