He raced away frantically, his heart pounding in his chest, feeling as if it was going to explode. In his hand he held a notebook. It looked unassuming. It was blue, smaller than most. And it was the most powerful book in the world.
As he ran he flipped through it’s pages furiously, turning the pages as quickly as possible without tearing the precious material.
“C’mon c’mon c’mon!” he muttered to himself. Where was it! He needed something quickly. At this point he didn’t care what it was as long as it was able to protect him.
He stopped and gasped with relief as he found the page he was looking for. There was a loose drawing of a scaled creature. Not very good, but enough to convince anyone looking at it that it was not a beast to be taken lightly. He held it close to his face as pain flared in his side.

The voice inside the boys head screamed Now! and he threw the crumpled paper at the man’s feet.
With a roar the beast sprang into the existence, its skin covered in hard scales, its eyes a fiery yellow with a single black flame in the center. It looked at him, and with a bellow it leapt at his attackers.
