her head.
    "I know, I'll have to stay behind. It's fine. I don't like it, but it's my duty."
    Love overwhelms my heart. I admire her as well as love her. Running my eyes over her full curves my body starts to respond so I decide to move things forward before I pull the three of us to the waiting bedroom.
    "Remy's ready and waiting," I say. "Let's do this."
    Archer kisses her then I do. The three of us stand a moment, Archer and I to either side of Jennifer as she holds our heads close to hers.
    "Come home soon, my hearts," she says softly then we're off.

    Remy shifts to dragon form as soon as we hit the island and does some grand magic that I don't understand but purple beams shoot out and around then right there in front of us is the massive etched stone with the arch we came here expecting to find. It's just the three of us investigating the site, we're too short handed to risk a bigger mission.
    Remy walks over to it, the island shakes under the weight of his dragon form. I wonder for a moment if he might crack the earth and send us all into the ocean but it seems to hold. The arch is large enough that he could pass through it in full dragon form. Remy shifts back to human to examine the etchings.
    "I thought there'd be some resistance," I say.
    "So did I," Archer replies warily looking around with his sword still drawn.
    "What resistance is necessary when only the most powerful of magics can reveal it?" Remy asks.
    "Well I don't know, seems everything else we've been dealing with has had resistance whether it needed it or not," I say.
    Remy snorts and shakes his head. I grin knowing I get on his nerves. Screw it, Archer loves me and he can deal.
    "Can you determine where it goes Remy?" Archer asks.
    "Of course I can."
    "Well that's grand. Care to share?" I ask.
    "The moon," Remy says running his hands over the symbols on the arch.
    "Huh, well, I'm pretty sure I didn't hear that right. Did you say the moon? As in the massive satellite orbiting the earth?" I ask.
    "Yes," Remy says.
    I look at Archer and shrug. "Well, that happened."
    "Why would there be a portal to there?" Archer asks.
    "The Ancients often traveled there, or so records I've read say," Remy says without taking his attention off the etchings. "It was of no import to them. Any of us have mastered the ability to bend space when in our true form so we can travel faster. It is merely a matter of scale."
    "Scale he says," I snort. "Well Archer, I knew we'd been thinking entirely too small this entire time. Taking over the world? Why not the entire flipping universe."
    "It would be feasible," Remy says.
    I throw my hands up. Sarcasm is absolutely lost on the man. Archer grins at me then turns back to Remy. Remy does something, I'm not sure what, but there's a deep rumble through the island then the arch shakes, and suddenly a glowing field pops into existence filling its opening.
    "You'll want to shift," Remy says over his shoulder as he begins to shimmer. We shift forms and then follow. I take a deep breath before stepping through the portal.
    The moon. Seriously.
    I step out onto gray dirt that puffs up under my feet. It assaults my nostrils and an urge to sneeze overcomes me. Before I can stop, it happens and I'm inhaling cool, fresh air. I look around confused having fully expected no atmosphere. The sky is mostly dark and there above us hangs the earth so we're definitely not in Kansas anymore. Archer is following Remy towards a large building that was obviously designed for dragons. Just behind it I notice a shimmer that must be some kind of magical dome sealing air into this space.
    I race up behind the other two. When we get within fifty feet of the building we're suddenly engulfed in streams of fire that shoot out of two dragon mouths that I had thought were stone. Pain clouds my vision, this fire actually hurts! Remy roars and breathes out his Black weapon. Archer and I do the same. As our breath weapons touch the stone they stop spewing the
