12 Ch12-The Secret Power

CHAPTER 12 THE SECRET POWER Shaka roared, ready to attack Astrid. The wizard was just starting to open her eyes.

第十二章秘密力量沙卡咆哮着，准备攻击阿斯特丽德。 巫师刚要睁开眼睛。

"Wait!" Drake shouted as he and Worm rushed out from behind their rock. Shaka looked at Caspar, confused. "Just one moment, Shaka," Caspar told his dragon. "What does the secret power do?" Drake asked. "Shaka can turn people into stone," Caspar replied. Drake gasped. "You mean, like statues?" Caspar nodded. "Yes. It is a very dangerous power. That is why it can only be used in an emergency. But Astrid must be stopped."

“等等!”德雷克喊道，他和虫子从岩石后面冲了出来。 沙卡困惑地看着卡斯帕。 “等一下，沙卡。”卡斯帕对他的龙说。 “这个秘密力量是做什么的?”德雷克问道。 “沙卡能把人变成石头，”卡斯帕回答。 德雷克气喘吁吁地说。“你是说，像雕像一样?”卡斯帕点了点头。 “是的。这是一种非常危险的力量。 这就是为什么它只能在紧急情况下使用。 但必须阻止阿斯特丽德。”

"I agree," Mina said. "Give the command, Caspar." Caspar patted Shaka's neck. "NOW!" Gray beams shot from Shaka's eyes. But Astrid jumped up and her hand flew to her belt. She grabbed an empty bottle. Red magic flowed from her hands and made the bottle glow. She held it in front of her. "Captivatis!" she cried. The gray beams flowed inside the bottle.

“我同意，”米娜说。“下达命令吧，卡斯帕。” 卡斯帕拍了拍夏卡的脖子。 “现在!”沙卡的眼睛里射出灰色的光芒。 可是阿斯特丽德跳了起来，一只手飞快地摸着腰带。 她抓起一个空瓶子。 红色的魔法从她的手中流出，使瓶子发光。 她把它举在面前。 “俘虏!”她喊道。灰色的光束在瓶子里流动。

"Caspar, call off the attack!" Drake yelled. But it was too late. Shiny gray liquid had filled the bottle. Astrid gulped it down. Her eyes began to glow with gray light, just as Shaka's eyes had glowed. Caspar's eyes were wide with fear. Shaka stomped away from Astrid, but Drake knew the big dragon couldn't escape fast enough. Mina and Frost launched into the air. "Frost, freeze her!" Mina yelled. Frost glowed, building up power for his ice attack.

“卡斯帕，停止进攻!”德雷克喊道。 但为时已晚。发亮的灰色液体装满了瓶子。 阿斯特丽德把它吞了下去。她的眼睛开始闪烁着灰色的光芒，就像沙卡的眼睛一样。 卡斯帕吓得睁大了眼睛。 沙卡跺着脚离开了阿斯特丽德，但德雷克知道这条巨龙逃得不够快。 米娜和弗罗斯特腾空而起。 “冰霜，把她冻住!”米娜喊道。 冰霜闪闪发光，为他的冰袭积蓄力量。

Drake touched Worm. "Transport us next to Shaka! Then transport us all out of here!" But Astrid moved fast. Faster than Frost. Faster than Worm. Gray beams shot from Astrid's eyes. Drake and Worm appeared next to Caspar and Shaka.

德雷克碰了虫子。“把我们送到沙卡旁边!”那就把我们都送出去!”但阿斯特丽德动作很快。 比霜冻还快。比虫子还快。 阿斯特丽德的眼睛里射出灰色的光芒。 Drake和Worm出现在Caspar和Shaka旁边。

"No!" Drake cried. Caspar and his dragon had already been turned into stone!

“不!”德雷克哭了。卡斯帕和他的龙已经变成了石头!
