“Ooh, my head’s swimming again,” the silver scientist groaned. She gripped her head around the temples, massaging the area near her horns.
“Feels…like I’ve…got a migraine. My…brain…”
Pen nodded sagely. Your mind is growing stronger. Humans use but a tiny fraction of their intellectual capacity. Silver dragons have access to it all.
“So, she’s getting smarter?”
Not merely smarter,
but mentally stronger. Silver dragons have perfect memory retention, infinite
capacity for knowledge and reason. They also understand emotions better than
most.
Annie gasped, still massaging her temples. Along with the
internal change came the further thickening and extension of her silver spires.
“I…I remember…3rd grade History class, with Mrs. Carpenter…and Jimmy
Wright, he pushed me into the mud in Kindergarten…and I remember where the
purse I lost from my favorite Barbie is…” She looked over toward
“Whoa, sorry about…”
Pen laughed. Did I mention that silver dragons possess psychic powers?
Whereas most dragons
are gifted with a breath weapon, silver dragons are gifted with a wide range of
very strong psychic abilities. Telekinesis is only the first expression of

With practice, you will be able to read and probe minds, hypnotize anyone who
makes eye contact with you, project into the astral realm, even create sentient
life.
Annie mentally slipped the test tubes back into the rack before levitating it to a counter on the far side of the room. She blinked, and the rack dropped unceremoniously onto the counter, toppling and shattering half the tubes.
“Guess I need to practice. Oh, and I won’t need to write anything down anymore. I can remember everything, perfectly.”
“Good,”
Annie closed her eyes and concentrated. “I sense nothing like him anywhere nearby. We should have enough time to finish my transformation.”
“Does this answer your question?” she smirked, turning her attention back to Pen and going down on him once more.
