Now as white haired Professor Drake Pennywhistle
could have told Hannah,the other dragon was a female,was 132 years
old,weighed 750 pounds and he was its great great great grand nephew.
However he wasn't due to teach his class on Dragon 401 for a
few more minutes and at that moment was checking that students
such as Skye and Jade had passed the security clearance,had insurance coverage
and all wore asbestos lined lab coats over their normal clothing.
As Professor Pennywhistle might have said to his cowering
students,
"That's a REAL DRAGON you're about to encounter
a REAL DRAGON!!!"
So it was the REAL DRAGON spoke to Hannah in the draconic language
REAL DRAGON's use
"My great great great great nephew will be letting us out of this cage in a few minutes.Try not to bite him if he
handles you"
which Hannah was shocked to learn she understood since
the big beast hadn't spoken a word of
English to her.
Before Hannah could digest the ramifications of this
the big stone wall on one side of the cage slowly rose up as clanking chains rose it.
On the other side of the hole Hannah could see a huge cavern,and along the caverns walls was flameproof glass and rows of
students lecture hall seats on the other side
of the observation glass.
In strolled a white haired man in a old fashioned
Dragon Observers suit and
the big dragoness briefly snarled at her relative and slid her
slimy forked tongue over his face in the way of a
friendly greeting to her only remaining human relative.
The Professor,used to this ignore her but instead went to unbind her chains.
That,expecting to only find one dragon in the cage he saw Hannah crouched miserably
in the corner and said
"OH"
If Hannah thought she had a chance of biting the human who had
rushed over swiftly and pinning those vicious snapping jaws of Hannah's
in the crook of a arm
expertly flipped her upside down and in a manner
of a minute had done his examination and analysis
Human turned Dragon?
Nope.Regardless of size humans turned into the shape of a dragon retain their human weight.
Thus a 132 pound Hannah would have turned into a 132 dragon-shifter
This beasty wan't that heavy.
A familiar dragon that strayed in somehow?
Nope,magical elements that take on the form of a animal are govered by the Magical Law of 3 and did NOT
get to weigh more then a dozen pounds-a large bag of store bought sugar
This beasty weighed more then 12 pounds
A REAL DRAGON
Very likely possibility.Conception was very rare,but there was the
Skinflouder Dragon Age to Weigh chart he could use to check things out
The Professor plopped the squawking Hannah on a nearby weigh platform,took the weight
of her
47 pounds
Measured her wingspan
6 feet
and her tail length
6 feet
Then he popped open his
Animal Husbandry :Dragons
author Julious Skinflouder
and confluded
Hannag was not
a human in dragon drag
not a elemental familiar
but something that
would after 132 years be a big,fierce and heavy as his
great great great grandaunt Pennywhisltle Flouder
