Viola swallowed and kept a tight grip on Julie. The old guy’s quip about Eragon was actually pretty funny. However, the dragon knight guy kept moving forward, ignoring him and the dragon prepared another fire blast. 

Moving to the left side, Viola aimed Julie at the dragon and fired twice. Being a double barrelled gun, four bullets headed towards the dragon, but they might have been pinpricks for all the good they did. Aiming again, Viola waited until the dragon unleashed its fiery breath until firing again, trying to hit its eye. With three more shots, she managed to hit the corner of the dragon’s eye, which did nothing but enrage it further. 

Realizing that she was putting herself in danger by just standing in one spot, Viola scanned the area, watching her surrounds and getting a better grasp of the battle. Old guy along with Sygma were focusing on the dragon knight. Viola didn’t expect that a sword would be that effective, but the old man (Viola knew she had to learn his name soon) knew how to use it well, well beyond what most people could do. 

Emptying her gun, Viola dived for cover to get some time to reload. She only had two more clips on her. At that moment she had never felt more scared with only 32 bullets against a dragon. Also a guy riding that dragon, but mostly the dragon. There had to be something else she could do. Anything else.
