The tornado finally caught Welkins' attention when it spiralled towards her. "Ooff!" breathed Welkin as she, Brooks and Danny rolled head over heels.
"I'm so sorry, Welkin," said Brooks when she finally caught her breath. Welkin wasn't listening.
"Oooh, Brooks," Welkin grabbed Brooks' hand so tight, that Brooks gasped. ;D
"Is it really you? Is this really Danny?" Welkin crouched over the innate green form. She remembered her 'First Aid For Riders."
She pinched Danny's wide nostrils.
"No, I wouldn't," said Brooks, gently pulling the girl away. "His first breath could be your last! GET UP, Danny!"
The dragon opened one eye. He had been quite enjoying all the attention.
"I've saved up all my old jewellery for you, Danny," said Welkin, shyly. She held out a handful of rings and bracelets. "And I have some Cammomile Tee - I mean Tea - for you, Brooks."
In Missouri, Deb was sitting, feeling a bit blue. Would she receive a visit from any of the Dragons?

Back in Michigan Goalie was trying to decide if her western saddle would fit her dragon. After it falling off for the third time she said "oh the heck with this, I want to meet welkiepops and Brooksie too" so onto the back of her little dragon she jumped. She clucked to him and nothing happened. she made kissing sounds to him , and nothing happened. She tried to squeeze with her legs and nothing happened. How am I suppose to make this darn dragon fly? she thought. Suddenly her dragon took off like a bat out of he**. I can't believe I am actually flying to meet Welkie and Brooks. I might even get to see Deb too, she thought. All at once the wind picked up and an ominous black cloud started forming in the north. Could that possibly be Big Tee on her John Deere.....................

Yes. It was. You might have thought the ominous cloud was caused by weather. Or by exhaust fumes from the tractor. But it was actually Tee's blue language. Dark blue.
"You %$#@!! Exploder, you! I'll have no more of your 88$#*&! hijinks!" Tee roared as she shifted the lever to lower the landing gear.
Her approach was direct and fearless. It would require fearlessness to land a tractor at that speed, approaching from the northwest, in winds such as these. To steel her nerves, Tee cranked up the volume on her radio. I mean she cranked it WAY up. In Detroit they listened for a moment, then began twisting and shouting, certain that Little Richard was back in town!

"That's not the most flattering picture of you, Danny," said Welkin, tactfully ....
A John Deere tractor ploughed into the earth and screeched to a halt inches in front Terrie and her dragon.
"Sorry we're late! The !!**@! Weather Liar blew me off course. He said the tornado was SSE, veering westerly, with low pressure in the Maldives ..."
"Never mind, Dear," said Terrie. "You're here now. Deb's waiting for us." She gave John Deere a drink of oil.
"Will you lead? Or shall we?"
A faint voice, over Scotland was heard : "Freya to Brooks. Over Scotland. Where to now? Freya over and out."

Tch! How long does it take to pop some corn? Thought the rest of the cast, tapping their various feet and claws.
In Maine (or Massachussets), Niaru was popping corn (or whatever they call it en francais.) She heard a deep, gravelly voice, outside.
"BELLE"
"C'est tu!" she cried and rushed outside. There was no-one there. "Garou?" Dit Claire. "Oui!" dit Garou.
She looked around. There was still no-one there. "Garou..?" She asked more tentatively.
She looked down. A small green shape sat on a rock. "C'est moi, Belle.." said Garou.
"But you're a..." "Dragonnnn!" Sang Garou. "No, you're a liz..." "Cherie, do NOT say the 'L' word!" he begged.
Niaru sighed. "Well, you can sing," she conceeded. "Now, hop in here." She held open her pocket.
Niaru and Garou stood on Maine (or Massachusetts) railways station with a single ticket to 'Deb, Missouri'.
"I don't believe it," grumbled Claire. "Mon Dieu, everyone else is riding a dragon and I'm smuggling a grenouille onto a train for a three day journey.."
"Less of the F word," said a voice from her pocket.
"I never MENTIONED frogs!" Protested Niaru.
A strange, unshaven creature uncoiled itself from a bench in the shadows and came towards them.
The train pulled in.

"Brian!" gasped Claire. "How did you get here? I thought you were having gall stones removed in California!"
"Yeah. They gave me some really good painkillers," said Brian.
Claire frowned. "They should have given you a razor and comb." She tucked Garou deeper into her pocket and offered Brian her compact mirror and a hankie. He tipped his hat with a Thank-you-kindly-ma'am, and they turned toward the sound of the oncoming train.

Meet Sips Wizôwigo (Yellow bird), of the Abenaki Nation. Great Wizard he is indeed!

Greetings, Great Bird. All the Ex-Racers and their real and mythical animals bent a knee.
Greetings, little people of the story-telling. The great man dipped his head. "There is a great wind in the north. The one you call Tee will lose her way and the evil Weather-Liar will hold sway..!"
"What? Deb dared to ask.
"Tee's lost." Said the Great Wizard.
"Oh ."
Terrie and Loki watched Tee and the tractor banking and circling. "Oh, good grief!" cried Terrie. She jumped on her dragon with no thought for her English or Western saddle. "TEEEE!" They called! Loki's breath burned the air. Big Tee and John Deere speeded up.
"Teeeee!" cried Terrie. ."

While Tee and John Deere were swirling, out of control, toward Kansas (Kansas?!!) Niaru was landing in Shetland, where Garou (to whom Sips - for short - had given great wolf wings and a normal Dragon size), licked his lips, tore his gaze away from the sheep, and said in his booming gravelly voice:
"Bara! Come out, come out, I will take you to Nebraska!"
Lexie and Joey bounded out of the house, followed by a disheveled Bara, still in her PJs...

;D ;D Ann, Love it Brooks felt like she was in many places at once but knew she was really in Deb's front yard. She and Danny boy had just landed. Deb came hobbling out her front door. " Oh My, Your here I thought I read it wrong when the Owl came and the note said you'd be on a Dragon." said Deb. Brooks took her chair and placed next to Danny and slid into it. Rolled over had gave Deb a huge Hug. She had wanted to meet her for a long time. "Well here's the plan, a number of ER members have been given Dragons and names of people to go pick up. We are then meeting on a Mystical Dragon island to have a course on proper care of Dragons. Here everyone will receive there very own. Then we are going to pick one spot and go for a grand adventure" explained Brooks. "I am here to pick you and one other person, are ya ready go? You don't need anything. Come on, up you go, don't be scared. Already ?" Asked Brooks "WAIT!!!!" Shouted Deb, but it was too late they were off again and before she knew she was flying high in the clouds. "OOOOooooooo" exclaimed Deb " How cool" Brooks and Danny's last stop would be for....................
