Scott decides that running away might be a good thing. If he was to be trapped in these trials to do who knows what, then wouldn't it be better to just grab Grayson and his new friends to teleport away? He wants to, so badly, but now his abilities are locked again. 


"Hahaha, so you passed the first trial!" The Dragon Lord laughs hollowly. "It seems you really are a trickster, young man." 


After falling through the sky for a few minutes, or an hour, Scott couldn't tell, he, the changeling and the mummy were brought back to the dungeon. 


"You even helped the changeling! How.. kind of you." The dragon lord looks angry, furious even, but he smiles that horrifying smile that sends shivers down Scott's spine. 


"Yes, I am quite the benevolent person." Scott states in a matter of fact way. He points his finger out like he was giving someone a lecture on kindness. "You should learn from me, it might do you some good, sir."
