until one of the cars had begun to lose control. There were no barriers on the mountain road so if they had gone off the side they would have died. Lagon had flown quickly over and caught the out of control car as the front end had left the gravel. The kids inside had been terrified as well as the other car that pulled over to the side when they realized what had happened. Unfortunately, Lagon had not been able to push the car fast enough backward for no one to notice. The kids had been screaming and freaking out until they felt him lift the car backward. When they were safely on the side of the road, once again the teens had been shaken. But not enough to actually dismiss what they felt. The next day Lagon had gone and got a local paper whose headlines talked about the miracle on the mountain. He had laughed for days about the teen"s account of what had happened.
    Of course, the Gods had chastised him. Then warned once again not to make his presence known until the time was right. Lagon lived in the cave for decades, with nothing to do but collect things and watch the humans. He had quite a collection of gold and jewels that he found over the years in the caves. Every once in a while, he would take a nugget in and get some cash, update his wardrobe and buy a few more of his trinkets that he loved. Yes, he was strange; he liked to collect pewter dragons. There was a man in Colorado who made beautiful pewter statues. His favorite had become the dragons. One of them resembled him in his dragon form. That was probably what drew him to them in the first place. He hoped the Chosen would give him enough space to bring his possessions. If they didn"t, he could always scare the shit out of them until they agreed. He knew once he revealed himself to them, they would be frightened at first.
    Lagon walked through the fire and began to see more seriously injured shifters. He frowned, pulling them out and leaving them for the others to find may not be possible.
    They looked like they could actually die if he did not get them out of here. He stood there for a moment and then finally decided he had no choice, their lives were in danger, and one of them could be one of Chosen.
    Quickly Lagon pulled two men who were closest to him out. They had burns and broken bones. Obviously, they were in need of immediate care. Shifters could heal quickly but serious injuries took a lot longer to bounce back from. Lagon spread his wings and flew straight up. Hoping no one was watching. He landed on the far side of the house and looked around. No one was there so he laid the men down and went back. Once he had the people out, he would shift and call for help.

    ***
    Ariel blew the hair out of her eyes as she looked around the triage center they had made.
    The injuries varied from serious to critical. She was not sure what they were going to do since the town doctor laid a few feet away unconscious with broken legs. Until she shifted she was useless, and even then, it would take days for her to heal properly.
    Blaine and Lacy"s mothers had training and were helping although they were understandably upset when Lacy was pulled out of the rubble and Blaine remained missing.
    Casey was delirious. She kept talking about a beautiful dragon that saved her, and giggled when she said he was well hung too. Sid and Devon had been rescued and were lying on cots on either side of her. At least they were conscious. Casey had fallen on the bed she had been laying on which had protected her somewhat. The beam that landed on her legs though had broken her thigh bone. She was given an epidural to help. That had been interesting when Lacy"s mother had claimed to know how to do it somewhat.
    Casey had freaked out and refused to let the woman near her. That is until she moved her leg during a contraction. Thank the Gods Adele had been teasing her; she explained she learned how to give an epidural during her acupuncture training. No one had found that funny.
    Sid and Devon both
