When the sun started to rise for another day, Xander woke up and stood from his makeshift bed. Blade had done the same but had already returned back to his horse form. 

Xander yawned and changed into a black hood, along with some pants. He took his sword and put it in its scabbard, making sure it was secure before leaving it alone.

"Let's go." Xander mumbled and got on Blade's back.

The fire from the night before had gone out so Blade made another fire, to indicate that was where they they rested. The fire was to be everlasting until Blade himself put the fire out himself.

Xander made sure his bag stayed attached and had everything before he took the reins. When he moved, Blade did as well.

It was a couple of hours later when Xander stopped his friend to look up.
"There's the tower." Xander said, not noticing the cave that was near.

Xander got off Blade to look around and finally saw the cave.

"Oh. Is that where the dragon is?" Xander asked, pointing up towards the cave and Blade snorted, shaking his head. "What should I do, Blade? Go up the tower or run into the dragon's cave?" Xander asked, thoughtfully.

Blade looked at the tower and neighed before then turning his head to the cave.

Xander sighed, "Alright, Callum's sister-in-law first." He took out a couple of medium-sized daggers.

The two of them had already stopped to eat so they really didn't have much else to do.

Xander stood in front of the tower and then jumped on the tower, efficiently stabbing the daggers into the tower's stone. He started pulling himself up and then jumped again. He repeated that process over and over, making his way up the tower while Blade watched from below.
