Scott could hear a few sighs, maybe of relief or annoyance. He doesn't care though. All he thinks about is Grayson, who looks almost frightened in the dragon guards' hold. 


As soon as the dragon lord tells everyone to take a rest, the guards release Grayson and he speed walks to Scott. "This place is horrible!" He whisper shouts at Scott. 


"I know, let's go ask for a room to stay in for the night." Scott pulls Grayson to Draca worriedly. 


"Don't worry, we have a room for you guys. Follow me.." Draca explains quickly and starts walking out the room even quicker. His siblings follow him silently while motioning for Scott to follow them. 


"It seems we don't need to ask.." Scott flashes a smile and continues to pull Grayson by his arm. 


Grayson sighs once again, anyone can see he is super annoyed but he follows nonetheless.
