I matched the line and my elation was soon cut completely as I felt the vehicle slam into the barrier. Time slowed, the magic flexing the flow of time in the area. The ripples were as though I dropped a rock in the pond. I could see them not just in the shimmering blue and pink magic dome but also in the car itself.

Suddenly all of the wolves started shrinking, becoming smaller and smaller till a round black stone is formed out of their shrink. They like shrink into a stone, or became this round black sparkling stone.
