That didn't matter in her eyes. It was ALWAYS a race to her. As Lux gave the spider a verbal life lesson, AJ decided on a more physical one. WHACK. Man, this wand sure did come in handy.

Now that the spider had been conquered they could move on. Her tongue was starting to fill like sandpaper in her mouth. That water was not sticking with her now that the sweating had started again. They were so close though. She could literally feel it in her veins. Would they be the first ones to make it through? How awesome would that be if they were?

Bushes and trees seemed to be getting thicker in some parts. Would something be popping out of the bushes? AJ's wand was at the ready in any case. Knowing Bellaire this wasn't over. Surely there was something else they needed to keep their eyes peeled for before they were back on safe land.

Walking side by side to Lux, all AJ could see was jungle. When would this end? Feeling rather than seeing Lux stop, AJ too came to a halt. "Everything okay?" Did something need to be attacked because AJ was on it. Then she saw it.

A cliff. Of course there was something else that had to do with heights since Lux was deathly afraid of them. Leaning over slightly, she squinted her eyes. "Is that Bellaire?" Snort. "And is she sipping some tropical drink as if she's at the beach like... like... like we haven't just narrowly escaped certain death?" Dramatic much? Yes, but AJ was thirsty and whatever Bellaire was sipping on was probably way better than water. Hmph.

Back to her current situation. "You can do this." AJ had faith in her partner. "We just have to figure out how to get across." AJ paced back and forth as she bit her bottom lip. "You don't have any superpowers, do ya?" she asked with a smile. Might as well make light of the conversation and try to get her partner's mind off of them being on the edge of a cliff.

Think. What had they done so far? They conjured birds, they turned a reptile into a water goblet, they shot arrows at a--- Wait. THEY TURNED A REPTILE INTO A WATER GOBLET.

"I have something, but it's totally mental. Do you trust me?" Her own boyfriend was FOREVER going on about wanting to turn Benny into a dragon. Dragon's could fly, and they could obviously transfigure animals into objects so why not the other way around?

AJ was brimming with excitement. In fact, despite of her being SO tired she jumped up and down. "We are going to fly over the bridge on a dragon! How wicked will that be?" EEEEP!!!
