was going to do. He wanted to be liked, he wanted to be respected, and in fact he wanted to be like Dragons Blue and Gold whom he envied because of their power and seniority. He craved respect and authority. He thought how great he would be as the Mayor of Draegonia. All these thoughts took time to pass across his mind. Some might say it was because his head was so large it took time for any thought to travel across it.

    Green knew it would be almost impossible to have Blue or Gold’s position but now was working out a devious if not dangerous plan.

    Green had decided that he was going to make Dragon Brown’s task of catching the trespassers difficult. He was also going to feed Dragon Brown with misinformation to make him look foolish. Green chatted to himself (no one else would normally listen to him) working out a way for him to be seen as a major player in the defending of Draegonia. Green had visions of dragons patting him on the back and thanking him for being so brave that they would promote him to Brown’s role of Commander in Chief and that everyone would be bowing in his presence.

    Green stared into the night sky, smiling as he had visions of being made a hero. What was that? Dragon Green had caught sight of hundreds of small lights moving around. He strained his eyes peering into the blackness of the southern sky. “Obviously the invading army,” he mumbled under his breath. “There are so many invaders that Dragons Brown, Blue, Red and the two sisters White and Cream will never be able to deal with them, at least not without my help.” He continued to talk to himself. What Green did not realise of course, was that these flickering pin pricks of light were not from the torches of an approaching army of dragon beating warriors, but just the last sparkling embers of four youngsters’ fire, being wafted by the breeze into the cool night sky.

    Green rushed off to find Dragon Brown who, outside the Dragon Police Station, was in conference with Dragons Red, Blue, Grey and the two Sisters, White and Cream.

    Dragon White had been released from Draegonia Hospital as they could do no more for her. She was still coughing and spluttering with black droplets continually being sprayed over everyone as she sneezed and sneezed repeatedly. Dragon Blue was unhappy, explaining that he too was now unable to spit any flame from his mouth. “Me too” said Dragon Red. “What?” exclaimed Brown? “Yes Sir,” said Dragon Red, “my flame has also gone out, what is happening?” The dragons were so engrossed in conversation that they did not see Dragon Green approaching. “Hey” Green shouted as he scampered up. “They’re coming and by the number of lights I saw there must be a whole army of them.” He hurriedly continued: “the invaders are heading this way from the south and will be here very soon unless you do something fast.”

    Dragon Brown spun round to see Green standing right in front of him. “How do you know?” Brown demanded, “I thought as Dragon White was unwell that I would patrol the southern side of the island,” Green continued with his exaggerations, lies and false claims. “I could see the lights of their camp in the distance, there must be hundreds of them, and I expect them to be warriors’ intent on taking over Draegonia.”

    Dragon White took a long deep breath, she was just about to explain that earlier all she had seen were three very small two legged creatures and a funny looking orangey container that may have had another hiding inside, all washed up on the beach, when she started to violently sneeze again. She sneezed and she sneezed - in fact she couldn’t stop sneezing and with each loud explosive sneeze, torrents of black droplets flew in all directions.

    On hearing the commotion dragon heads appeared from all the surrounding cave entrances and windows, each quickly pulling back as they were splattered with numerous black sticky droplets. “For goodness sake use a ‘Dragon
