Okay Queenie, good news/bad news. First, the bad. That '6'th' in the augmented Fireball description refers to Mythic tier.
'Augmented Mythic Spells: An augmented version of
a mythic spell has the same effect as the mythic spell,
plus additional benefits, options, or an increased effect.
Some augmented effects require you to have a minimum
tier in order to cast it as an augmented mythic spell. If
so, the tier requirement for the augmented effects is listed
in parentheses in the entry. For example, "Augmented
(4th)" means you must have at least 4 mythic tiers to use
this option. If you know a mythic spell, you automatically
know how to cast the augmented version of that mythic
spell upon reaching the required tier.'
The good news is that you will automatically know that version if you survive to the 6th Mythic tier.
In other news, meet your familiar:

Pseudodragons are tiny cousins of true dragons, and are playful but shy. They often only vocalize in chirps, hisses, growls, and purrs, but can communicate telepathically with any intelligent creature. If approached peacefully and offered food, they are usually willing to share information about what they've seen in their territory, but threats or violence make them flee.
Pseudodragons are carnivores, devouring insects, rodents, small birds, and snakes, though they sometimes eat eggs, and most also enjoy butter, cheese, and fish. They either hunt on the ground like lizards or look for prey on the wing like a raptor. As smart as a typical humanoid, they do not enjoy being treated as pets and prefer being treated as friends. They are wary of evil folk but can bond with sorcerers and wizards as familiars, and some have befriended druids and rangers or partnered with good dragons as scouts. Pseudodragons will serve as familiars if they approve of a spellcaster's personality (and if the spellcaster takes the Improved Familiar feat), but often also bond with those whose company they enjoy or who have proven themselves true friends. A pseudodragon might follow another character in this manner for days, weeks, years, or even a lifetime if the creature is treated well, provided with food, and generally well-loved.
Upon reaching adulthood, a pseudodragon's body is about 1 foot long with a 2-foot tail, and weighs about 7 pounds. A pseudodragon egg is the size of a chicken egg, but leathery and spotted brown, and a mating female lays 2–5 eggs every spring. A clutch of pseudodragons (the collective noun—not to be confused with pseudodragons from the same brood of eggs) usually consists of a mated pair and several near-adult offspring.
NOTES: The hit points, combat abilities and range of some other abilities have all been reduced and the modifiers for the 'young' age category applied. She's pretty fragile, so use her at your own risk. You may use her as normal with the understanding that she may engage in occasional youthful errors. Once you level up we'll move her up to standard stats. Good enough? [/sblock]

I thought that would be Mythic Tier... Hopefully by then Lia's come up with more elegant solutions / spells than throwing large balls of fire everywhere. After this encounter I'm not counting on making it to 6th Mythic Tier 
. (Yes, yes, I did it to myself... Hey it was hard jumping right in!!)
I am assuming that was the good news.. Lol... I am loathe to bring this up and have been thinking about it since yesterday... Didn't you basically just kill my "almost" familiar with that Dragon's Breath spell?
If my wonderful and magnanimous GM's feel she was at least partially protected in Lia's pocket, that would be fabulous and the stats above are amazing! Thank you guys so much
I think it would be really fun for her to make juvenile mistakes. That was sort of the point of using her early, even if she had no powers, it would still be entertaining.

Fenris, I don't necessarily approve of you quoting an earlier draft version of one of my posts. In this case, it does have some redeeming (comic relief) value, but please don't make a habit of it? Antagonism between our characters may be a useful device, but let's keep it clean and not dredge up stuff that's been deleted, ok?

That would be fabulous! Don't want to lose her before she is really mine.
I did have this funny notion, that if she died(s) like that, I would be contacting PETP - People for the Ethical Treatment of Pseudodragons. Totally unfair working environment for little baby fairy dragons!
I do have a little cage for her but would not think to leave her unattended outside, especially being so young. I will let the DM's rule on that
