the cargo hold. She is
glowing so brightly now it is impossible to look at her. She begin
flailing again and the ship begins to shake. Python hits the button
to shut the door and turns off the gravity in the cargo hold. Then
he opens the outer doors and Eve and all the contents in the cargo
hold are sucked out into space. They all head to the bridge and
take their stations.
    Doc says, “Need to back up. I have no idea
how big she will be.”
    Che replies, “Okay, back way up.” Che moves
the ship out a few thousand kilometers as they watch through the
windows. Eve starts changing into a Space Dragon for the first
time. She grows bigger, bigger, and bigger. Che has to move the
ship back a few more thousand kilometers.
    “Holy crap! She is gargantuan!” Chad says in
excitement.
    Meek adds, “That is one big wanker of a
Dragon.”
    Doc says, “She is still getting larger.”
    Che says in bewilderment, “Woah, she is a
huge; I don’t know they got that big.”
    “In the wild they don’t. She is vastly bigger
than any known Space Dragon—30 or more times.”
    “She has four legs and four arms…what the
hell?” Gothica says in confusion.
    “Makes sense. Her core dragon DNA is Serpent
Dragon and they have more limbs, usually six,” Doc informs.
    Eve says over the intercom, “Where are you
guys? I can’t see you.”
    Che says, “Probably because we are the size
of an ant compared to you. I will turn on the forward lights and
then maybe you can see us.”
    “Oh! There you are…so tiny.”
    The crew sees a yellow eye the size of a
battleship with a black slit in the middle looking at them.
    “That is a big honking eyeball,” Cogg
comments.
    Che says, “Forget the eyeball. Look at those
monster-sized teeth. No dinner invitations for you!”
    Eve laughs over the intercom.
    Meek say, “Watch out! Don’t fly into her
nose. I just had the ship washed. No Dragon boogers, please.”
    “Yeah, I am not good with the insect in the
nose thing,” Eve chuckles.
    “Can you roar for us, Mom?” Gothica asks.
    Doc says, “No, don’t roar. The shockwave
would crush us, not to mention a Space Dragon’s roar releases an EM
pulse that kills all electronics. That is how they attack ships
before they eat them for metals and energy. They have a nasty
breath weapon too, depending on what color the dragon is. Those are
some of the things you will have to learn when you get to Dragon
Territory.”
    “How do I fly in space? It’s a vacuum.”
    “Your size, intelligence, and PSI ability
should help you fly in space or gravity. You use your wings in
gravity, though. Those items also determines how fast you can go.
You just think which direction you want to go. A Dragon will have
to teach you how to navigate in space, as I cannot instruct you on
that. However, you can go much faster than any ship that is for
sure. We could ride on your nose bridge and you can use you PSI to
access the navigation computer to know which way to go. Probably
need the arachnids to web the ship to your nose bridge so we don’t
fall off,” Doc suggests.
    Meek hesitates, “I am not sure about
that.”
    Che says, “That would be cool. Who is going
to be wanking with us if we are on a planet-sized Space
Dragon?”
    “Hey! I am not that fat!” Eve interrupts,
“But I understand. Um...do I really look fat?” She begins looking
at her body.
    Che replies, “No, no, that was a figure of
speech. You are nice sleek dragon and definitely a low-calorie
one.”
    Meek says, “ I have done some weird things in
my life—that time I tipped a royal sheep two bars of platinum after
a drunken night of fun; still swear it was a hairy prostitute—I
guess we can trying dragon riding.”
    Che landed the ship on Eve’s nose and webbed
the ship to it. Then they took off to Laughing Skull.
    “Our normal jump speed is 5 and the meter
only goes up to 10, which we are at now. Probably going much faster
than 10,” Che comments.
    “I can try to calculate our speed based
