I’m more of a skulker, a lurker, a poisoner in the shadows. I don’t like to put myself in personal danger unless I know I can win.’ ‘Cowardice!’ hissed the Witch. ‘Whining! I’m not interested in that wishy-washy personal stuff, just get on that dragon’s back before I bite you! Don’t worry, I will do your killing for you, but I need you there. Give me your second fire-suit and the Stormblade.’ Sulkily, Alvin handed them over. Sulkily, he climbed on to the back of the Stealth Dragon. You have to hand it to the Witch, for an elderly

She wrapped herself in the fire-suit, seized the Stormblade, vaulted on to the back of the Stealth Dragon, kicked her bony heels at the dragon’s flanks, and with a whoop from the Witch, the Stealth Dragon took off. As he leapt upward, he turned from the browny hue of a brackish bog to the exact colour of the flames and blackened clouds of the sky above.
