Now this was gonna be difficult. In a quick flash everyone had their weapons drawn. Techno had an iron sword, Skeppy had a stone sword, Spifey and Zelk had both stone axes, Dream and Bad both had bows and A6D had a stone pickaxe. The dragon didn't wait for them to attack and started to dive towards where the group stood.

"Everyone aim for-" Techno was cut off as the dragon clearly targeted him seeing him as the leader. Which he was and therefore everyone was a bit worried when they saw it grab hold of him in its mouth and threw him into a wall. Techno was now knocked out cold and that left Skeppy to lead them.

"Alright," he began hurrying over to the front of the group. "We need to kill it obviously so try and get a headshot!"

"Let's do this," Dream muttered smirking under his white mask. Bad began to aim for the skeletal dragon and Dream stood beside him also reading to fire at the beast. Skeppy and his land team had to just sit back for a bit until it was shot down. But that didn't take long with their impeccable aim. Soon Bad and Dream had taken out one of its wings, so it had no option but to land and fight them on the ground. As soon as it landed the ground group charged at it and started to attack it. Skeppy started swinging at its head which seemingly just pissed it off. Zelk, Spifey and A6D were going for its legs. They just forgot to get the tail. It flung its tail around its legs hitting all three of them into different directions. A6D hit the opposite wall to where Techno was making it harder for them both to be protected. Spifey was thrown towards the edge where the parkour course was and Zelk basically took out Dream. Skeppy had quickly managed to pull Spifey up before he plummeted to his painful death. Bad had gone to check on A6D but found he was in no state to fight seeing as he had a head injury. Techno was thankfully regaining consciousness but all of that couldn't stop the dragon. It then fired a blast in Zelk and Dream's direction. It hit them leaving a purple fire around them. Techno was quickly helping them get back up and everyone started to regroup. Once everyone was back at their starting positions they started planning as the dragon regained some of its strength.

"A6D is in absolute no state to fight," Bad reported.

"Hey, I-I can fight!" he slurred in his French accent. Bad shook his head and carefully got him to sit down out of sight.

"Zelk and Dream appear to have some severe burns," Techno sighed, and they were too sent back to where A6D was. No with that done the remaining people turned to face the dragon once again in hopes they would slay it quickly. And they did. Techno made a big difference and I cannot stress that enough. It took them literally no time at all to kill it and then to make sure it was extra dead they shoved it over the pit of doom. We are gonna call it that for research purposes. They managed to help their friends over to the chests. A6D was doing lots better it was just Zelk and Dream. They seemed to get exhausted pretty quickly. It was concerning to say the least. But they said that they were fine and all. Nobody believed them but didn't want to annoy them further either. Everyone picked a chest and grabbed the most important seeming item in it. They decided they'd share their finds when they got back to their base. It was a bit of a struggle to get all the way back down the mountain particularly with two slowly dying people, I guess. Then the trek back through the forest. It was honestly draining but they all still managed to make it back to their little box of a base. Everyone basically collapsed into their beds and slept even though it was daytime. They slept all the way until the very next day which is quite impressive if I do say so myself. But when everyone woke up, they just made some easy breakfast, and everyone got their things for show and tell. YAY! Skeppy had gotten himself a diamond sword. Techno had himself an unbreaking bow with lots of arrows. Bad had gotten a shield. A6D got the next clue. Zelk got a golden apple. Spifey got three water breathing potions. Dream got a diamond axe. The loot they had just received was pretty good but what the dragon gave their friends. The burns didn't seem like burns anymore. I like the term infections better. They were starting to look really sickly and everyone continued to ask if they were okay. The answer was the same every time. They said they were fine. But they weren't. But then everyone decided to look at the next clue and read it. It read:

Well done for you all to get this far. But I'm guessing some of you may have been burnt by the dragon. There is only one cure for that, and it lies deep in the ocean. The choices are both very good offers. You can only pick one chest to loot. If you don't then prepare to perish.

How mysterious. I wonder where this next challenged is located. It was soon decided to go as quick as possible and in this time, they managed to persuade Zelk and Dream to not come. Bad was also going to be left with them which meant only four of them could try and get their friends the medicine they need.
