Dragon Hunters

[the Mimikar inspects our heroes, who are chained to a wooden frame]

Gwizdo:
Lian-Chu, the reason you can't feel your body anymore is not because you're clean. It's because you were poisoned.

Lian-Chu:
You mean to say you took all those risks just to save me? Oh, Gwizdo, I don't know what to say.

Gwizdo:
Well, given the present circumstances, "Farewell" might be a good start.

[the Mimikar spits fire onto its hands and rubs them together]

Lian-Chu:
It's not farewell. You wanted to save me, now I'll save you.

[Lian-Chu tears the chains off of his hands and lands on his back with a crash. With all his might he starts pushing on both sides of the wooden frame from the middle. The Mimikar prepares to breathe more fire]

Gwizdo:
Lian-Chu, you wanna save me? How about now...?!

[Lian-Chu shatters the frame to pieces, breaking the handcuffs on Hector and Gwizdo at the same time just as the Mimikar breathes out the fire. The Mimikar starts bawling]

Gwizdo:
[ecstatically] Lian-Chu, buddy, I'll say it for the millionth time: You are simply the best.

[Lian-Chu gives Gwizdo a feeble smile and collapses]

Gwizdo:
Hmm? Lian-Chu?

[Distraught, Gwizdo runs over to Lian-Chu]

Gwizdo:
No!

[He shakes Lian-Chu's arm desperately]

Gwizdo:
Wake up, buddy! Wake up, my friend! Don't you worry, Lian-Chu, we're gonna save you!

[He looks up with a look of grim determination on his face]

Gwizdo:
The gland. Hector?

Hector:
Yes, sir!

Gwizdo:
[picking up a piece of the wooden frame] Get ready. Get ready!

[Gwizdo springs forward with the piece of wood in his hands and charges towards the Mimikar. He swings the piece of wood back, aiming it at the gland]

Gwizdo:
Hold Lian-Chu's mouth open!

[the Mimikar breathes out a gale of fire. Gwizdo hurls it forward, stumbles and lands on his face. The piece of wood is sharpened into a stake by the flames and it lands straight in the Mimikar's gland]
