"Hmmmm... I..I guess I have no choice now."
Mage: "What are you babbling about now? You know that its pointless to resist, so give up and accept your fate!"
"I have a question for you though. You said that this blood is infused with magic, right? Is it a particularly strong enchantment?"
Mage: "Is it strong he asks... OF COURSE ITS STRONG!! I used the power of the crystal to reinfource that spell, so you aren't going anywhere!!"
"Aaahhh...ok. I figured as much. Well, if its infused with the crystal, I might have some trouble breaking out, but from what I have seen, I shouldn't worry too much."
A few seconds of complete silence pass, then the Mage starts rolling on the ground laughing.
"Hey now! What do you find so funny about what I said? I really can break out of this if I wanted to."
Mage: "Oh sure!! HAA HAA HAAA!! Sure you could!!! AH HAA HAAA!!! Ive gotta see this!!" He snaps his fingers, stopping the dragon from advancing. "And just how (snicker) would you do this??"
"How? Why, like this!"
I place my right hand upon my chest, and let loose a force on my body. I then begin to glow white, and the whole room begins to darken, as I become the brightest thing in the entire room. After a moment or so of this, the light slowly starts fadeing from my body. Markings then start flowing up my right arm, and also flow up my face, wraping my whole body with them. The last markings go up to my metal hand, which look more complicated and intercate than any of the other markings on my body. When it is done, I look greatly changed wherever you can see my skin, and my metal hand is now white in color, in contrast with the black markings on it.
Mage: "Humph!! That was pretty flashey there boy! Too bad it didn't do anything at all to help you!"
"...Just wait for it..."
Before the Mage can respond, the color of the Dragon's blood starts fadeing, turning from a crimson red to a grayish-white. It then breaks apart, disolving into a fine powder.
Mage: (his jaw hangs downward for a few seconds, then he explodes in anger.) "Wha...WHAT?! YOU INSECT!! HOW DID YOU DO THAT!??!
"Simple! Are you familure with Runes, friend?"
Mage: "Runes?? What a stupid question!! OF COURSE I DO!! WHY ARE YOU ASKING SUCH... wait. Wait a moment. Do you mean you..."
cutting off the Mage, I respond: "Yes, my body is completely covered in them. I am literally an anti-magic dynamo of sorts right now, so breaking the magical bonding that you had me in was inevitable."
Mage: "Oh, really now? Well then, lets see if it works on this!!"
The mage then raises his hands high over his head, chanting something to himself, then he points his hands at me.
"FREEZE!!"
He unleashes a furious wintery blast at me, bringing the air temprature around me to -50 degrees, first in farenhite, then in celcius. Ice clings to every structure in the entire room, turning it into a little winter wonderland in an instant. Im completely covered in ice, seeing how I was at the very center of the attack.
Mage: "Well now, you won't be getting out of that! I had hoped that you could have survived that attack, so that I could play around with you some more! But you should have expected that for your behavior towards me!!"
"Heh. Don't count me out of this game yet!"
The ice around me quickly shatters and flings off of me, freeing me from my icy prison.
"Well now, this is interesting. Can't you do any better than this? If not, I think that this battle will come to an abrupt ending fairly soon!"
