American Dragon
Disclaimer: I do not own the franchise just the character known as Samantha.
Samantha was the new girl at Millard Fillmore High School and she was just trying to keep out of everyone's way including the jocks that were looking for people to make look bad. She was new to this area and what she had heard about was that one of the teachers was right about mythical creatures actually existing but he was not taken seriously.
Just then she saw 3 people on skateboards: Two boys and one girl. They were very good at that but she had to watch out or-
too late she had been knocked over onto her back. The skaters then stopped and turned around. "Hey sorry didn't see you there." They said and went into the school. Sam got herself up and picked up her bag rushing inside to make sure she was not late for her new teacher. She just made it inside and her teacher gave her a look.
"Well class I believe I should introduce our newest student. Samantha McKenzie why don't you come up and introduce yourself?" The teacher had glasses, which seemed too big for his face and was balding. He also seemed to be from a German country. Sam could not actually tell where from.
"My name is Samantha, Sam for short and I come from Denver Colorado. That's all." She said and sat back down. The teacher obviously was not expecting her to be done so soon. But got on with the lesson anyway.

Sam paid attention to the teacher all the way through the lesson not being a goodie goodie but did not know what the lesson was going to be like so she took as many notes as she could.
The lesson was over and then everyone ran out of the classroom and knocked Sam over again no one waiting and helping her up. But she looked up and saw one of the skaters there. "Sorry people should look where they are going." He gave her his hand and she accepts it.
"My name is Jake Long. Sorry we knocked you over earlier." Samantha just smiled accepted his apology and he left. She picked up her things and left the classroom. The hallways of the school were lively with chatter and everyone was in their own groups and Sam did not know where to go.
She put her things away in her new locker and locked it up and left for the cafeteria. She saw the Jocks, the Cheerleaders and all the other groups at separate tables. Samantha saw a table with no one sitting there and decided to sit by herself. She had got her lunch before she sat down.
"Excuse can we sit here?" A voice came from behind her. She turned around and saw Jake and the other two skaters. Sam nodded and said yes. They sat down and started talking to one another.
The guy in the hat kept staring at a blonde cheerleader who was talking to two others and laughing at unsuspecting people. The girl was talking about someone called Kyle Wilkins and how fine he was. Jake was just talking along with them not really talking about a crush. Like he had lost someone recently. But still he looked happy and was smiling.
"Hey new girl why don't you ditch these losers and come and sit with the cool kids." The leader of the jocks had come up and talked to Sam. Sam just ignored his comment and went back to her lunch but soon found that her lunch had been pushed away from her. "Weren't you listening?"
Sam looked up at him and took her glasses off as she did. Her brown curly hair was falling into her face as she did so. This made her looked beautiful whereas if she were wearing her glasses she would have been invisible and probably called a nerd. "I don't think so." She said simply and got back her lunch from where it was moved to.
The Jock did not take no for an answer and as Sam got back up he got in her way. He moved forward and she moved to the side thus he fell over and she stepped over him. Everyone around was laughing at the jock for falling over.
"Hey Brad did you have nice trip?" Someone said out loud and the raucous laughter continued. Sam left the cafeteria in hoots.

The rest of the day was uneventful and Sam then went to her locker. The cheerleaders were looking at her with some scathing look that was making her shudder. She took out her stuff and coat and got ready to leave for the day.
"Hey are you alright from earlier?" It was Jake again and his friends they seemed harmless enough. They smiled at her. "Thanks for not leaving our table to go and sit with Brad."
"Is that the guys name? I saw enough people like him in my old school they're harmless enough. All they can do is damage a rep." Sam said to them. They agreed with that. Brad suddenly came up to Sam trying to put the charm on with her.
"Do I need a sign labelled not interested?" She said to him and walked out of the school saying goodbye to Jake and his friends.

Sam walked back to her house and saw her father unpacking more of her things. "Hey dad how are you doing?" He told her he was doing fine. Sam helped him with the rest of the unpacking as he was almost done it didn't take that long.
"Sam, I'll be out for a few hours be careful when you go out not to get in trouble. I know what you're like." Her father said. He waved her goodbye and left. Sam unpacked some of the food that her father had brought earlier in the day.
She made a snack and then decided to go and check out the park in case there was any trouble that needed to be sorted. It was cold and Sam really wished that she had brought a coat. She just kept on walking when she was attacked by these motor biker trolls who had just started robbing people a few days ago.
"Give us your goods." They had said to her. She kicked one of the ones who was holding and proceeded to run. She was really hoping she would not have to do this here and now.
She hid behind a bush and a blue light engulfed her and she was transformed into her alter ego. She was a dragon. With wings and was a dark brown all over. "It's a dragon." All the trolls had started to scatter when another voice was heard.
"I thought I would not have to deal with you guys for a long time but I guess I was wrong." A voice in the shadows got louder as fireballs appeared and chased off the trolls. "Are you alright?" He thought he was talking to another magical creature but was shocked to see another dragon.
Sam saw a red dragon. "I did not know there were any other dragons here besides me, my sisters and my mentor." He was obviously shocked.
"I thought the same." Sam said. This shocked him more another female dragon. This made 5 dragons in America that he knew personally. He was determined to find out about her.
"Who are you?" He said to her. She looked back at him not willing to budge and tell him who she was.
"You should tell me first." Sam asked him. They could not argue anymore as the trolls had come back and with more numbers on their side. "Oh man we need to work together for this." Sam said to him.
"Ok." The dragon said. They did just flying in sync and blasting fire at the trolls. It was a few minutes later when the battle had stopped. Sam was happy that was over. The male dragon celebrated by saying something she did not understand.
When he turned around she was gone. But he could still see her in the distance. He immediately went after her. "Hey I want to know who you are? Are you working for the dark dragon or anyone evil?"
Sam did not answer him so he unintentionally blasted fire at her and it hit her wing pretty hard causing her to fall. "What was that for?" She asked him as she started spinning out of control. "Oh this is not good." She said.
She crash-landed on a rooftop in a lot of pain. She had no choice and changed back into her human form. She was pretty sure that the other dragon had seen her. "Sam?" He had said without knowing it.
"Who are you? How do you know my name?" Sam winced as she extended her arm. She had been burnt before but this hurt. The dragon then transformed back into his human form; she was shocked to discover who it was. "Jake?" She started backing towards the ledge and lost her footing.
Jake immediately transformed back into his dragon form and grabbed her wrist before she became street road kill. "Don't struggle otherwise you'll fall again." Sam listened to his advice and did not struggle he took her to his grandfathers shop. "Don't worry you're safe here."
He turned once again into his human form. Knowing no one had seen he lead her into the shop. "Jake what is the meaning of this?" His grandfather had started saying something in Chinese.
"Hey Gramps chill she's a dragon too." Jake said to him. The older man looked at Sam like he didn't believe it. Sam sighed and transformed into her dragon form. Jake's grandfather stepped back but then did help.
Sam changed back into human form and showed the man her injury. "How did this happen?" He asked. Jake explained what had happened but did seem kind of embarrassed about it. Once her injury had been sorted out Sam had wanted to leave but Jake stopped her.
"I need to go, my father will be worried." She said to them. She went to leave and looked down the streets not knowing exactly how to get back home. "Could you show me where to go?" She asked Jake and he agreed.

They had made their way back to her home, which was not that far from Jake's. Sam said goodbye to him and she would see him tomorrow. Once he had left Sam just felt confused. This was new. In the last place she went to she was the only dragon now there was another.
This could be fun she thought. Fun indeed.
