The dragon was at least sixty feet long, and Colson, in spite of his fear, could not help wondering how many sets of luggage it would yield. He also dropped his Two Rivers Times on the sidewalk. A picture of the mayor stared up at him from the front page. Then, the dragon said this: "You haven't seen any sheep around, have you?" Colson had not, but he didn't say so. His brain had system-crashed from fear. Fear had sealed his mouth. It had killed his ruminations, like: where had this dragon come from, and where was it going, and why had it just stepped out at him from behind the municipal building on Park Street, smoking from the nostrils? He found himself, incongruously, admiring the tonal qualities of its voice, which sounded like something that might've come out of a multimillion-dollar sound effects studio. All gravel and echo and chest-thumping bass. He found himself wanting, but unable, to run.
