The Dragon Stone
Summary: There is an ancient legend of a powerful jewel that could hold much power. The Huntsclan is after it in hopes of getting rid of magical creatures once and for all. It's up to Jake and Rose to prevent this.
I do not own American Dragon Jake Long.
Here is my newest ADJL story! It's not the sequel in case you're wondering. I'm having a little writer's block so instead I will write this. I hope you all like it and reply. No Flames. Advice is welcomed though.
Chapter 1:
"I can't wait till spring break!" Jake said happily as he and his friends headed home from school. "Not only do we have a week of no school but we have a vacation to Hawaii! It's about time the am drag got a day off!"
Trixie shrugged. "It sounds like fun but knowing Rottwood he will probably be babysitting us the whole time."
"Yeah like that's going to happen! He's probably going to get hurt again. Besides it is a free trip to Hawaii." Jake protested.
"Ahh Hawaii…a place with sun, freedom and hot girls." Spud added dreamily. Trixie frowned and hit him on the head.
He rubbed the back of his head. "What's the matter with you?" He said annoyed.
Trixie rolled her eyes. "You're just going to follow Stacy around like a love struck puppy dog aren't you! It gets old after awhile Spudinski. Especially, since she doesn't even like you. Why do you think she runs away if you get within a few feet from her?"
Spud smiled. "I know she's just playing hard to get. How can she resist me?"
Trixie grumbled annoyed.
"Guys chill okay? I want to have fun not have to worry about some stupid squabble you two are having." Jake said with a sigh.
Trixie and Spud scowled at each other but nodded in agreement.
Jake opened the door to Lao Shi's shop. Since it was Friday, he had to practice his dragon training.
"Yo, Gramps! I'm here!" Jake called into the shop.
Lao Shi walked in. He seemed strangely worried about something but Jake and his friends didn't notice.
"Hello Young Dragon. Are you ready to begin training?" He asked politely.
Jake grinned. "I was born ready Gramps. Dragon Up!" He quickly turned into a bright red dragon.
Fu walked into the room. "Hey Gramps I think I found a clue." He said as he stared into a book.
Lao Shi turned his attention to the dog immediately. "Did you find out what they are after?" He asked concerned.
Fu dog shrugged. "No but I'm looking into a bunch of magical items found in the area. One of them has to be it."
Lao Shi furrowed his brow with worry. "This does not look good."
Jake waited impatiently. "Yo G are you ready or what?"
At the sound of Jake's voice, Lao Shi remembered his grandson was in the room.
"I am sorry Jake. Before you came here I was researching what the Huntsclan is after. There is a lot of activity and they haven't been searching for the skulls. I'm worried they are after something worse." Lao Shi explained.
"Say what? Are you sure it's not just a false alarm?" Jake protested.
"I am quite certain. That's why I want you to be on full alert." Lao Shi said seriously.
"Gramps I'm going on Vacation soon to Hawaii! I've been looking forward to this all year!" Jake protested.
Fu Dog looked thoughtful.
Finally after a moment he said. "Gramps the rumors do say that's where the Huntsclan will strike next. If Jake goes he can keep an eye on things there."
"Please Gramps? I will scour every island if I have too!" Jake begged.
"Yeah, and Jake needs to have a little fun once in awhile. Aren't there some child labor laws in this city or something?" Trixie added.
Lao Shi sighed. It was against his better judgment but Fu dog did have a point.
"Very well Jake. You may go. Just let me know if there is anything suspicious there. And don't just goof off! You're there to do your job as the American Dragon."
Jake grinned and started to dance happily around the room. "Oh yeah! I'm going! I'm going to Hawaii!"
"I suggest you go home and get some rest young dragon. You have a long day tomorrow. I suppose we can post pone today's training till when you get back. This is the only time I will allow this keep in mind." Lao Shi said as he rubbed his temples.
"You got it G!" Jake said happily. Together he and his friends headed home.
When they were gone Lao Shi turned to Fu dog.
"Do you think he is ready? If the Huntsclan is doing what I think there doing Jake could have his hands full. I won't be able to help him."
Fu Dog smiled. "He may be young but the kid's got guts and talent."
Lao Shi sighed. "I just hope you are right."
