Her Fate

Her Destiny
"Hey there, Jake." Rose said as she walked up to his locker. He seemed to be doing his best to avoid her ever since the ski trip. "Oh, uh… Hey, Rose." He greeted her before he rushed off to whatever class he had.
She didn't understand. What could have happened to make him act so differently towards her? Was he that angry that they couldn't hang out together?
Stupid Huntsclan… She couldn't have a life and be Huntsgirl at the same time. Damn it, sometimes she felt that making her uncle happy just wasn't worth it.
She shook her head, how could she even think like that. He took her in when her mother died. He raised her as his own daughter. He gave her everything she ever wanted. The least she could do was keep up the family tradition.
She looked at the dragon mark on her hand. It was her destiny to be Huntsgirl. It was her fate to take over her uncle's place as head of the Huntsclan. She had been training for it ever since she was five years old. It was all she knew.
She never had to wonder about what she wanted to be when she grew up. Her life was already set out for her. She didn't need to make any decisions at all. Her uncle had made sure of that. She would become the Huntsmistress when the Huntsmaster retired or died. Which ever one came first.
She would slay dragons and kill other magical creatures for profit. It was what she was born for.
The first thing she had to do was slay the American Dragon. God, she hated that dragon. He was such a pest. He was always there to screw things up for her. He made all of her missions a hell of a lot tougher than need be. In fact if not for him, she'd be able to have more personal time.
And more Jake time for that matter.
It was her destiny to kill magical creatures… Especially dragons.
For now, maybe it was best that she didn't have a love life. It'd be too hard to keep up with a love life and her life as Huntsgirl. She sure as hell didn't want to mix Jake up in anything that has to do with the Huntsclan.
If she really was so desperate to date, she supposed she could always go with Brad. All he really cared about was dating the hottest girl in school. She highly doubted he'd notice if she was always busy. Not like Jake…
Jake deserved better than what she could give him. She couldn't give him the attention that a boyfriend deserved from his girlfriend.
She had no choice in the matter, though. She knew what she was born to do and she knew what that meant. No Jake. No life. All she had was the Huntsclan and her destiny.
And that would have to do.
Well, there's the prologue. Review and tell me what you think. This is my first ADJL fiction and I'd like to know if it's worth continuing.
