Henry’s back-to-back bouts of attack coupled with getting shot with a silver bullet had left him exhausted. Darwin’s claws, eyes, and hair were slowly changing back, taking his energy with it as well. As the adrenaline faded, all I wanted to do was lie down and sleep for a week. When we finally did make it to the castle door, I had to sit down and rest on the steps. Darwin sprawled out on the dirt floor and laid his head on his arms. “Don’t sleep now, we are almost there,” Henry said, scowling as he sat on the steps next to me. I scoffed. “One of us has to get up the energy to open the door.” “I got shot,” Henry said, letting his head fall back. “I saved the day,” Darwin mumbled, already half asleep. “With my power,” I retorted. Neither of them responded, so I grabbed the rail and forced myself back onto my feet. I opened the door and came face to face with Hunt. “Why didn’t you tell me you had a fucking dragon under the school?” Only then did I turn to see who was standing right beside the door.
