Chapter 2 of Another Dragon

It was a new day at Millard Fillmore High and Sam felt like she had the world on her shoulders. She left early so she could walk slowly because she did not feel like hurrying around today. She saw Brad and hid behind a tree as he walked past her. She sighed not wanting to deal with him just yet.

As she made it to the entrance and saw Jake and his friends skating towards her this time stopping in front of her. The girl skater got off her skateboard and said thank you to Sam for doing what she did to Brad yesterday and making him look the fool. Sam stated she didn't do it on purpose but all the same it was her pleasure.

"I'm Trixie nice to meet you." She said to Sam and extended her hand. Trixie started to talk to Sam about Kyle Wilkins and how he was going to be her main squeeze. Sam laughed and said to Trixie to keep up her efforts. Sam walked over to her locker not noticing Jake following her.

"Don't worry I won't tell anyone about what you are." He told her and she replied the same to him and she shook his hand on it. Sam walked past him and into the classroom.

"Dude what is she?" Spud asks his friend as Sam walked into the classroom. Jake just looked at her as she left. Jake went out of his trance and looked at Spud.

"Say what? I can't tell you. I made a promise." He said to Spud and walked into the classroom sitting in his seat in the middle between Trixie and Spud. Sam was located at the front near Rockwood's desk.

Rockwood had begun his lesson expecting to see Jake late but shocked to see him there and just continued explaining about the unicorn. He spouted off some facts which both Jake and Sam knew to be false but they said nothing. Sam just took notes and listened carefully.

Sam looked around when the lesson was over and saw that everyone was getting up again. Sam just sat in her seat for a moment. As soon as everyone had rushed past her Sam got her things and got out of the classroom. She sighed as she got her stuff together and put it in her locker again.

The rest of the day went by quickly and Sam was grateful that it was now the end of the day. She exited the building putting on her coat. She exited the building and had begun to walk back home. "Hey Sam." Jake called from behind her. She turned around and had seen him. "Do you want to hang out with us at the skatepark?" He asked her.

Sam smiled and said ok to this. So she walked with them as they skated ahead of her. They made it to the skatepark a few minutes later to find others there but they soon left. Trixie and Spud immediately went on the ramp and begun to do tricks at the same time.

Jake stayed beside Sam as she watched them do the tricks. All of a sudden Jake picked her up and had begun to do the same. Sam closed her eyes not turning into a dragon but out of fear. "Don't worry I won't let anything happen to you." Jake said to her.

She nodded and then Jake just did a trick and stopped. Sam got off and let out a sigh of relief. "You alright?" Trixie asked as she stopped for a moment in the middle of the ramp. Sam nodded. "You just need some practice that's all."

"Maybe. I don't know, I've never done this before." Sam said honestly. They nodded in understanding. Some other kids called up and said they had wanted to use the ramp. By this time it was starting to get late. "I have to go home do my homework." Sam said and left them alone.

As Sam left Jake looked at Trixie and Spud and told them to follow him. "She's nice enough isn't she?" Jake asked his friends. They just nodded. "She's a dragon. I met her last night and accidentally hurt her." Trixie and Spud were shocked with this new discovery but promised not to say anything.

Sam arrived back at her house to see that her father was still at work. She got to work doing her homework. She silently cursed Rockwood annoyingly saying to herself he did not know mythical creatures and would fail to comprehend what they were actually like. She got back to her work and hoped that it would be all right.

She finally set down her pen an hour later. She went to her window and looked over across the street. There were children playing in the street and it was only now starting to get dark. A few minutes after looking out over the view there was a knock at the door.

She opened it and saw her new friends at the door. "You told them I take it?" Sam asked Jake and he just nodded.

"They already knew my secret and maybe we team up and help each other whilst we are both here." Jake said to her.

Sam sighed and let them in. No sense in being alone she thought to herself.
