So it was that Danielle had managed to get to the other side of the coal furnace whilst Jamie continued her changes.
Now earlier when Aunt Grendela had returned with James slung over her shoulders,Danielle had acted like she was asleep,but had kept her eyes partially open,.
So she'd watched Aunt Grendela place a small statuette of a obvious dragon fertility
goddess on James exposed belly.
Her aunt had said her various incantations and the stauette had begun to glow,as did the skin it rested on.
After Grendela had left,Danielle had sidled over to her unconcious
brother and rested her hand on that glowing belly of his.
She could see his belly starting to swell and could feel a tiny heartbeat within,where
a new dragon fertility goddess might have just been concieved.
So now Danielle wiggled her way towards the steps leading out of the basement,
whilst behind her she could hear the snapping of the ropes that bound new dragoness Jamie.
