The Nine Dragons The Dragon King Part Twenty-Nine
The Fall Of The Dragon King
The first thing she did was slide down to the head to get to the left eye. There she stopped at the eyelid. She tried not to pay attention to the storm clouds below them as she caught a glimpse of the volcanos where she fought the fire dragon poke out like a spider’s bite. She knew that she did not want to fall here. Yet this meant that she could not afford to drop for one moment.
She had to ignore the itching in her back. However she could feel her body shaking uncontrollably. She started to breathe in and out rapidly. Her stomach churned painfully. She was suddenly afraid that she was going to throw up and lose her grip and fall. She bit her lip as she could feel ice in her racing heart.
Yet she had to look down at the eye for a moment. Then she saw the dragon palm coming at her. She quickly dived down and in as the eye closed. Darkness eclipsed her as she was smashed between the inner eyelid and the eyeball, but she knew that she could not take any rest regardless of how much her body was crying out for it.
She reached out and had to keep her sense of disgust at bay as she clawed forward. She was glad that she could not be bothered to cut her nails. Which were now very dirty. Which meant that, if she failed, she could take the eye out at least. So she clawed on and on and on. Yet she could not help but notice that she was getting ahead slowly as she dug and dug and dug.
Then she heard Pendragon roar as she heard that he was scratching at his eye. Yet she pushed herself on and on and on. Then she felt the tip of the talon scrape her back, causing pain to flare up in her back. Yet she had to ignore this and clawed on and on and on. She felt another scrape yet she pushed on and on, knowing that the eye was gone now.
She felt her head starting to spin, yet she pushed herself on and on. Her head became worse and worse but she forced herself on and on and on. She felt more and more scrapes but as she dug further and further and further in she felt it less and less. Her body shook more and more and more yet she forced herself deeper and deeper and deeper into the eyeball. Her body’s need to rest became a greater and greater demand. Soon she was fighting her whole body as, after an hour at least, she moved past the centre of the eyeball.
Her eyes started to roll as she moved on and on and on. Yet she had to force her arms up and struck down again and again and again. Soon her hands soon dropped rather than brought down with purpose. She gasped at the thin air and she pushed on and on and on. She kept this up as far as she could for over two hours.
Then she collapsed onto the back of the skull and onto the shield of the brain. There she lay panting as her eyes closed. When she woke up, she felt a talon scrape the sole of her foot. She pushed herself on. She could see the brain. This was the size of two towns!
She summoned the last of her power and pushed her fire into it as hard as possible. She spread the fire as far and as wide as she could. Yet she knew that it was not as powerful as it should have been. Ignoring this, she spread the fire as wide as she could and she pushed it on and on and on. She could feel her body shake sooner and worse than the day before but she kept pushing on and on and on.
Her stomach felt like stone but she pushed on and on and on. She felt the strain but she kept it up as much as she could. She could feel it build like an elastic band, but she pushed on and on. Then it snapped. Pain flared up in her body like she was burning inside. Yet before her eyes closed, she saw the flames spread. When they closed the dragon fell and she passed onto the next world where her next adventure awaited her before she was rendered unconscious.
