Drake's eyes went round with horror. "Nooo! I don't wanna see my reflection on his bald head again!"
"Shh! You'll blow our cover!" Boo panicked, slapping his little hand over Drake's snout.
"Mmmph!" Drake mumbled behind his hand, eyes watering. "Can't… breathe!"
"Stop breathing fire then!" Boo hissed, trying to hold his ghostly form steady as Drake's warm breath started to make his mist flicker.
And then—
Drake's nose twitched once… twice… and before Boo could stop him—
"Aah… AH-CHOO!"
A small puff of fire escaped, hitting the window and leaving a perfect round smudge of smoke on the glass.
Inside the room, every adult stopped talking.
Miss Kelly frowned. "What was that?"
Professor Hobb turned toward the window, blinking in disbelief. "Did something just… sneeze outside?"
