To the Candle Team
The surprise attack was horrifying at how close it had come; however what was more surprising was the rescue.
A brown dragon had risen from the sands and had charged at the man on the horse, as horse meat is particularly favored to brown dragons...It had been there the whole time, waiting for the ambush, but when the horse had come close, the dragon could wait no longer.
Yet at the same instant, lightning had blasted down from the sky, striking the brown dragon into stopping the attack on the horse, and turned it's attention skyward. A blue dragon was hovering there, already swooping in with talons extended to rake at the brown dragon. The brown dragon now was totally ignoring the prey it had missed, and was concentrating fully on the more prominent danger. It leaped aside as the blue came in, then turned again with it's head and bit at the escaping blue. The blew recovered from the dive, but could not manuver fast enough to get away from the quick snap from the brown. Now being forced to bring the battle to the ground, the blue once again readied his breath weapon, aimed, and shot white hot lightning at the brown. The brown knew that it was overpowered by this much older and wiser opponent, but would not give up. It had just as much right to be here as any dragon. The brown charged, taking the shot of lightning but determined to attack.

Also...I have posted enough into the fight that any shock or fear that has set into your hearts at suddenly being surrounded by two dragons has subsided and you can now react. I suggest running, but do whatever suits you.
