Shield

A thunderous roar escaped Dinah's throat, drawing Alex back to his present predicament.

Alex knew he could dodge the dragon's fireballs all day if he had to but dodging wasn't going to help him defeat this dragon. He had to attack, but how? Should he let his claw grow? Alex shook his head. No, a claw wouldn't be enough and he really preferred to use a sword even when fighting a dragon but how could he get another one? Alex really didn't want to go back up to the cavern because he was certain that Dinah would burn everyone to ashes. It was best to keep her down here, away from his wife and the others for now until he could think of a plan of attack.

He was kept busy in the next second as Dinah blasted a few fireballs at him. Alex easily dodged them but he knew this was only the start. When none of the fireballs hit their target, Dinah's next move was to make it rain with fire and then she attacked with a massive fireball as a surprise.
