DRAGON HOTSY ( CHAPTER 2)

DRAGONS

" My fellow Dragons, today we meet to discuss saving our castle, the place where our ancestors lived centuries. King Ivan killed many of our friends and relatives during his reign up to now. It is time we regain and own our castle and kill the King," Hotsy said to the Dragons.

" We have to find a way to fight his soldiers. Their arrows wounded and killed us before we could fight with their swords. Our numbers are limited. It will be 12 Dragon against his 200 soldiers. It will be a tough war to win. You are safe in your invisible state and can breathe red hot air as a weapon. We need to find a way to surprise the King's soldiers," One of the Dragons shouted.

" I am glad to inform you that Iron Tommy and his soldiers of 40 will join us for the battle. This will give us additional power and support. I and Tommy will make a war plan on how to handle them. I am vulnerable as well. I can not be invisible and use my breath of red hot air same time, I will be there to protect you and repel them." He told.

" We are ready to battle with the King. My Dragons want protection from the King's weapons especially arrows before we can organise our tactic," Hotsy asked Tommy. " I understand their worry, will find a way to destroy them. Let me speak to Kuna the Witch and come back to you," Tommy said.

WITCH OF KONA

" I need a favour from you, my friend. To save my princess, my army and Dragons will fight to King, Dragons need something special to protect them from King's horrible weapons can you help us please," Tommy asked the Kuna the Witch. " Of course, I can but will charge four gold for each Dragon makes it 48 gold pieces," She had a big smile. " I shall also provide magic in the Ghost Castle that will frighten residents and the soldiers as you need them outside of the castle to fight, additional 50 gold for that just make it 100 gold pieces altogether," She said." It is okay, I shall be back with your money," Tommy left.

" Here is your payment of 100 gold pieces, tell me what will be the magic you will be using to help us win the battle, save princess, Pinky and the castle," Tommy asked.

" I shall call spirits of the all past Dragons killed in the castle, their ghosts will be flying all over the castle. Resident pheasants will be frightened to death with the dead dragons flying around. They will run away out of the castle and open the castle doors. King will order soldiers to follow pheasants to bring them back to the castle. That is the time Hotsy and his Dragons should attack the soldiers," Kuna had it planned. " To protect the Dragons I shall put a spell on them which will provide them with a secret invisible guard around the body, arrows, swords any weapon will bounce back won't hurt them but caution is will only last 30 minutes. You've got to win the battle within that time frame after that spell will end, one last thing you have the war the night fool moon is on in ten days' time, otherwise, my magic won't work," Sorcerer said.

Tommy dashed back to Hotsy and gave all the details to him. " In my view, Dragons must front the King's army while my men attack them behind once they are circled it will be easy to kill them. We will only have half an hour to finish this battle. You and I will go to the castle to save Princess and Pinky and we have ten days to prepare for this, battle should start at the full moon," Tommy sounded very happy. " Give us a five, good organising you are amazing," Hotsy said.

WAR

It was the full moon. The night was very quiet and scary. Wolves around the valley were howling, wild sounds echoed at the castle walls. Pheasants were hiding in their huts as fool moon always frighten them. The Ghosts of dead Dragons started flying around in their white shadows. Soldiers started running around making scary warning noises not knowing what was happening. Villagers who saw them as well started panicking and getting out of the castle. Ghost castle surrounded by ghost dragons again. People run out of the castle." Get those pheasants into the castle, don't leave the castle gate open we are in danger," King shouted to his soldiers. They obeyed the order and went out to collect them like shepherds gathering their flock. That was the time twelve Dragons attacked them. Hotsy became invisible and run into the castle. Iron Tommy on his white horse surrendered soldiers from the back and attacked them. War was started and it was bloody. The Dragons were amazing. Soldiers couldn't kill them. Every weapon they used was bouncing back making them defenceless and killed. Tommy ride to the castle and reached the princess's location. King was waiting for him with his 10 men. His sword started shining warning of danger. Hotsy came around and start spraying red hot air at the soldiers. Two of them burnt. King and Tommy start fighting with their sword were making such a noise princess and Pinky knew they were outside. They just wrapped their arms and waited for them. Hotsy was wounded with the arrow that made him really crazy he killed three more soldiers with his tail and the other two with his red hot air. Then went into Princess's room they were still holding each other. Iron Tommy wounded the King and got his sword. He was helpless and was begging his mercy. " What you want me to do with him, Princess ?" He shouted. " Please let him go, I forgave him he is my father," She said. Pinky was over the moon. She took the arrow from Hotsy's shoulder and gave him a big kiss. She had missed him.

NEW BEGINING

It was a new world for Hotsy and his friends. They settled in the castle providing an order to the new settlement. Hotsy was united with Pinky their love blossomed. Hotsy invited the Landlord of the " Red Dragon Inn" to open one in the castle. They could have the " Dragon wine blood" at last. After that, Pinky on Hotsy's back travelled around Kona county.

Iron Tommy and the Princess became the King and Queen of the Ghost Castle. They gave one gold to each pheasant to live happily with the Dragons.

King run away from the castle and were hiding in shame. He visited Kuna the Witch secretly. " I want you to help me to get my castle back," He said.

" You can my Lord, it will cost you 500 gold pieces. I can put a good spell to make you King again," She loudly laughed.

" No problem, I shall get your money. Here is a one gold piece tell me what you see in your Witch Cyrstal Ball," He asked.

She wiped the crystal ball, her face changed eyes wide open and said " Big fire coming to Ghost Castle again," making. a loud noise.
