This is not exactly what you were expecting

The dragon has eyelashes and very cute little horns on its head. It has a short, wriggly tail approximately one foot long. Its face conveys pure innocence. This creature appears to have not the slightest bit of aggression.

You try to refrain from laughing and somehow manage to keep yourself from bursting out and possibly scaring the creature away. This dragon is a pink color and resembles a character from the 'Barney the Dinosaur' TV show. It hardly looks like the ferocious monster you had envisioned.

"Unbelievable," you think to yourself. "I might be able to take this dragon . . . if I have to, that is. The genie said I just had to GET PAST the dragon; he didn't say I had to kill it."

You sneak through the stalagmites in an effort to get behind the dragon. The dragon sniffs around on the ground, but keeps its back toward you.

You are now close enough to the dragon to smell its scaly hide. You are almost at the hole in the wall where the dragon came from.

Suddenly, the dragon whirls around. Its cute little eyes look at you, and it almost seems to have a sweet little smile on its face. You smile back at it and say, "Hey, there, widdle dragon. What's a cute widdle dragon like you doing here?"

You are shocked when the dragon suddenly becomes enveloped by a field of purple energy. The dragon's height increases to about twenty feet. From head to tail, the dragon's length increases to roughly that of a sperm whale. Its skin becomes dark and its eyes glow an angry red. Claws as sharp as swords grow from its toes.

"Gulp!" you gulp. You turn and run through the hole where the dragon entered. The dragon roars and launches a fireball from its nostrils. The fireball blows a hole in the ground where you had been standing seconds ago.

You run until the tunnel breaks off into two directions. You see daylight to the left; that is the way out! You start to go to the left, but another fireball blasts a hole in the ceiling and seals off that path. You run to the right instead.

In the middle of the path, you see a glowing emerald floating in the air. It is surrounded by yellow energy of some sort. "Maybe I'm supposed to take this?" you wonder.

Just then, the dragon comes storming up behind you. You grab the emerald. Will the emerald save you?
