12 Help a Dragon? And Which One? (2/2)
”Training under you personally would be an honor,” Oli bowed humbly, showing respect similar to that of a master or higher power.
Brak smiled and was about to ask again for the egg when Oli continued, ”But I must decline. You may be able to protect me from her, but who would then protect me from you?”
”What did you say?” Brak's eyes lit up, as if on fire.
”If you can be so treacherous as to eat your offspring, how can I guarantee that someone so weak and insignificant like me won't just be stepped on after you're done with me?”
”Why, you brat?! Just die then!” Brak's mouth burst into flames, about to spew plumes of fire towards Oli. But Brak froze when he saw that Oli was unshaken and remained standing there with the egg.
”What's wrong? I thought you were going to kill me; did you change your mind?” Oli poked and prodded the dragon with his words as Trada chuckled to herself. ”Or can you just not bring yourself to destroy the egg after all? If that's the case let me know when the two of you figure out your power struggle. In the meantime, I'll take this egg out of range to keep it safe for you.” Oli bowed his head and began his trek back to the troop.”
”Stop right there! Or you die!” Brak's fury neared eruption. ”Where do you think you're going!?”
”If you want to kill me, then do so right now, this instant,” Oli's calm countenance baffled both dragons. ”Like I thought, all bark and no bite. So much for being a divine beast, more like a divine coward who can only bark orders to scare people into submission. Oh, and come find me later Trada.”
Brak finally made his move for Oli but Trada was quick to intercept. She blocked his every move with superior speed, leaving him frustrated. His only hope in getting the egg now was to defeat Trada and track down Oli afterward.
”You asked for this Trada, so don't blame me.”
”If you weren't so greedy, we would never be in this situation in the first place. No matter what you say, you are the true cause of this,” she was determined to stall, focusing on parrying each strike and never attacking. ”Even if you do defeat me, I'll make sure that my egg has escaped your grasp.”

”Foolish woman!” Brak began using his full strength, knowing that his razor-sharp scales would eventually destroy his defenses.
”Ha, you're just mad that you got outsmarted by a child,” she wasn't strong enough to physically attack him, so she attacked his ego instead. Brak didn't respond and only attacked more ferociously, hoping to defeat her all the faster.
