American Dragon: Haley Long (Season Three)
Chapter/Episode 7: Fu Dog's Tips For Dieting
"Whoa, whoa..." Haley exclaimed, wildly waving her arms around as her two friends, Leah Belden and Destiny Morgan led her, with a blindfold over her eyes, toward Canal Street Electronics. "...I don't like this!" Haley told them as they got closer to the shop. "I've never been good with letting other people be my eyes."
"Then you'd fail at being blind..." Leah told her.
"Besides, do you really think that we'd lead you to harm?" Destiny asked as they finally reached the door to the shop. "Leah, get the door..."
Leah nodded, and after letting go of Haley's arm, she walked over to the door and pulled it open, the bell above the door ringing out as Destiny ushered Haley inside. As Leah rejoined Haley's side, she said: "You can take off the blindfold, Haley..."
Haley quickly brought her hands up, and she reached behind her head, and she untied the knot in the cloth. As she lowered the blindfold, Haley had to blink a few times in order to get used to the light of the shop, but once everything came into focus, she gasped. Sun, Jake, Rose, her mother, her father, Trixie and Spud all standing behind a table, which had a pile of presents on it.
"SURPRISE!" They all shouted. "HAPPY TWENTIETH BIRTHDAY, HALEY!"
Seeing this, Haley's mouth opened widely and she slowly started to walk over to the others. "I..." Haley muttered. "...I...I...I can't believe it. You...You guys did this all for me? But why?"
"Well, Sun and your parents told us..." Rose explained. "...That you've been kind of down lately. Ever since a young dragon didn't make it through a mission or something. I'm sorry, Haley, if I'm not correct. I'm just going on what I've been told..."
"Basically, Hales..." Jake said. "...We're here to cheer you up..."
"And what better way to do that..." Destiny said. "...Than to celebrate your birthday with you?"
LINE BREAK
Unbeknownst to anyone in Canal Street Electronics, on the roof of the shop across the street, two dragons watched the activity going on inside. Kenna Zareen leaned against her staff as she watched everyone inside the shop, a scowl on her face. Next to her, stood The Dragon Father, who had his arms crossed.
"What do you think of this idea?" Kenna asked him. "We go inside, kill everyone except for the American Dragon, and take her with us-No, that's not good enough. No...Her family needs to live. They have to know how I felt..."
"How about..." The Dragon Father cut her off, making Kenna turned her head to the side so she could look at him. "...You decide what it is exactly that you want to do to her. Remember the last time? They got the best of us. I don't want a re-run...Besides, it's her birthday. Let her celebrate it one last time..."
"Are you forgetting what she did to my sister?" Kenna demanded with a snarl. "She killed my sister! She needs t-wait..." Kenna stopped, and as she started to think about what The Dragon Father had said, an evil grin spread onto her face. "Yes..." She said. "...That's actually a good idea. Let her have one more day. Then, tomorrow...I take it away from her..."
BLACKOUT; PLAY THEME SONG
BACK TO THE STORY/SHOW
In the back room of the shop, Haley sat on the couch, Trixie and Spud sitting on one side of her, and Jake and Rose sitting on the other. Sun, Destiny, Leah, Jonathan and Susan all stood on the other side of the room as Haley unwrapped a box, finding both a wand and a pink top. "Yo, girl!" Trixie told her, a smile on her face. "This is from Spudinski and me! You're going to look kickin' in that top!"
"Yeah!" Spud added. "See, I know you're not a wizard, but I thought you might like the wand anyway. You know...like a decoration..."
Haley nodded, smiling as she set down the box. "Thanks, guys..." Haley said, just as Jake reached into the sleeve of his red jacket, and he pulled out a very small box, about the size of a box that jewelry would be placed in. "Here you go, Hales..." He said, making Haley turned her head to the other side as Jake handed it to her. "...This is from Rose and me..."
"This could be very helpful to you..." Rose said as Haley took the box and pulled the lid open, gasping as she saw that it was a necklace, a small pink jewel at the end of the chain.
"While she was confined to her bed..." Jake told his sister. "...Rose looked this thing up..."
"It's a very powerful magical artifact..." Rose told Haley. "...With it, you can do just about anything. You can heal injuries, you can attack your enemies with it. Do you understand what I'm trying to say?"
"Yeah..." Haley said, a small smile on her face as she took the necklace out of the box and put it around her neck. "...You're saying that it's a real life dues ex machina..."
"Not quite..." Rose replied. "...There is a catch. It can only work once, so you need to be careful. If you were to ask me, I'd advise you to use it if you ever find yourself the victim of a surprise attack."
"I think she understands, Rose." Jake said to his wife.
"So, is that everything?" Sun asked, glancing at everyone in the back room. When no one said anything, Sun nodded, clapping her hands together. "Then it's time for cake. Fu!" Sun waited for a couple of minutes, hoping for Fu Dog to come, but after about a minute, Fu had not arrived yet. "Fu?" She repeated, this time louder. "Fu Dog?"
Still, there came no response. "Where is he?" Jake asked.
"He was supposed to be hiding in the bathroom..." Sun told him. "...He was supposed to be out here by now..."
"Do you want me to go find him?" Jake asked, slowly getting up from the couch.
"No." Sun told her. "No, I'll take care of it. You just stay seated and spend some time with Haley. I'll be right back." Sun then started to walk away from the group, and she started to approach the bathroom door. "Fu Dog?" Sun asked, knocking on the door. Waiting a few seconds, Sun heard nothing. "Fu Dog, I'm coming inside..." Sun told her, and she turned the knob, pushing the door open, only to gasp when she saw the in the bathroom, the tray that the cake was on was empty, all except for one piece. On the floor was Fu Dog, who was on his back, his stomach bulging out as he moaned in discomfort.
As Sun just stood in the doorway in shock, she was completely unaware the Jake, Leah and Destiny walked up beside her. That is, until Jake spoke: "You have GOT to be kidding me..."
LINE BREAK
The next afternoon, Haley entered Canal Street Electronics with the necklace around her neck. As the bell above the door rang out, Sun stepped out of the back room and approached her pupil. "Hello, Haley..." Sun greeted Haley. "...How were your classes today?"
"Boring..." Haley replied.
"Yes..." Sun replied. "...Look, Haley, I'm sorry about yesterday..."
"Why?' Haley asked, setting her bag down on the floor. "Seeing Fu Dog miserably obese and unable to move is hysterical..."
"Oh..." Sun seemed taken aback by this, but nonetheless, she didn't say anything, and instead turned around and started to walk into the back room. "...Are you ready for training, Haley?"
"Sure..." Haley replied, starting to follow Sun into the back room.
"Fu Dog!" Sun called as she and Sun walked into the back room, only to find that Fu Dog was nowhere to be seen. "Fu Dog!" Sun called. "You're needed! Fu!"
However, once again, Fu did not answer. Standing still for a few seconds, Sun listened, her ear finally twitching as she heard a noise coming from the bathroom. "Stay here, Haley..." Sun told Haley, walking over to the bathroom, opening the door to find Fu Dog drinking out of the toilet. When Fu heard Sun's voice, he quickly pulled his head out of the toilet and turned his head to the side so he could look at her.
"What?" He asked.
"I need you to come out and aid Haley with training today..." Sun told him. "...I would hope that you could do that, after you almost ruined her birthday yesterday..."
"Yeah, about that..." Fu replied. "...I'd rather if I didn't. I kind of have to...do my business..." As he said this, the shar-pei jumped up onto the toilet, and he started to raise his back leg as he jumped, however, he missed his target and fell onto the floor with a grunt.
Sitting up, Fu Dog shook his head. "That's funny..." He said. "...I thought there was a toilet here. Huh...Go figure..." Fu then got up to his feet, but for some reason, he stumbled to the side, hitting his head on the white porcelain. With a grunt, Fu hit the floor, unmoving.
Frowning, Sun just looked at the shar-pei, waiting for him to get to his feet. However, after a few moments, when it appeared that Fu was not going to be getting up anytime soon, Sun's frown was replaced with a look of concern as she made her way over to the shar-pei.
LINE BREAK
About an hour later, Sun and Haley both sat at the front counter, both facing the back room. Seconds later, Trixie sighed as she walked into the front room. "Is Fu Dog going to be okay?" Haley asked, a worried look on her face.
"Relax, Home-Girl..." Trixie told her. "...He's not hurt from the hit to the noggin'."
"Well, that's good news..." Sun seemed rather relieved.
"Not quite..." Trixie replied, shifting uncomfortably. "...I'm no veterinarian, but I think...that...Fu might...might be...diabetic..."
BLACKOUT; CUT TO COMMERCIAL
BACK TO THE STORY/SHOW
Sun sighed as she entered Canal Street Electronic, Fu walking beside her with his head lowered as Sun held onto his leash. Haley, who was sitting at the front counter, got off her stool and walked over to Sun, as she knelt down and released Fu Dog from the leash. Once released, Fu kept his head lowered as he started to walk into the back room. Sun sighed again as she stood back up all the way. "Well?" Haley asked. "What did the vet say?"
"He has diabetes, alright..." Sun shook her head. "...The veterinarian has been trying to get Fu Dog to take better care of himself for years..."
"He never listened..." Haley replied.
"...And now it's finally caught up with him." Sun replied. "The veterinarian has said that Fu Dog now must live on a low calorie diet, and he'll also need this..." As she said this, Sun reached into the pocket of her jacket and pulled out an insulin needle.
LINE BREAK
Haley sighed as she walked out of Canal Street Electronics. Putting her hands in her pockets, Haley looked straight ahead of her as she started to walk home, completely unaware that on the roof of the building directly across the street from the shop, stood Kenna and The Dragon Father.
"She's going home..." Kenna growled.
"Why don't you just follow her?" The Dragon Father asked.
"Because I want her at her Master's littler shop..." Kenna growled in response. "...I'll wait until tomorrow..."
LINE BREAK
The next afternoon, Haley, Leah and Destiny were all walking toward Canal Street Electronics after their classes that day. "Aw, poor Fu Dog..." Destiny said sadly. "...That's so horrible!"
"He didn't take care of himself..." Haley said, shrugging. "...I don't know how I can possibly feel sorry for him..." Then, she sighed. "...But somehow, I do..."
"That's good..." Leah stated. "...Even though Fu does come off as kind of a jerk at times. That's okay, though. Let's take my sister Alena, for example. She's kind of a-Well, she's a-"
"We get it..." Haley replied. "...You two don't get along that well..."
"Exactly..." Leah replied. "...But I wouldn't wish some disease on her..."
"Yeah..." Destiny agreed. "...So, Haley? Is there anything we can do for Fu Dog? You know...to make him feel better?" By this time, the three girls had reached the shop door.
"Uh..." Haley thought about it for a moment before she finally replied. "...Probably not..." She said. "...He's really bummed out because of the diet he's been placed on. There's no cheat code for this one...I suppose...you could...you could just be nice to him. You could pet him, you could play with him. Fu really likes that."
"Alright." Destiny told her. "We'll do that."
"Good luck..." Haley said as she pulled open the door, resulting in the sound of the bell above the door ringing. "...Chances are...you're going to need it..." The three girls then walked into the shop, walking into the back room, where they could see Sun sitting on the couch reading a book, Fu Dog lying next to her, just staring off into space.
"Hey, Fu..." Destiny said sweetly as she and Leah started to walk over to the shar-pei. The two girls knelt down, and they both started to pet him. Fu, when he felt Leah and Destiny touching him, looked up at Destiny, and then at Leah. "...It's okay, Fu..." Destiny told her. "...We're just here to make you feel better..."
"You want to know how you can make me feel better?" Fu asked after a few seconds. When he got no verbal answer from the two, his eyes quickly narrowed and he shouted: "YOU CAN LEAVE ME ALONE!" Both Lean and Destiny jumped back from the dog, their eyes wide and their jaws lowered in shock as Fu continued in a rant: "I just want to be left alone! Yeesh! Is that too much to ask for?! If you can't tell, I'm not in a good mood!"
"You're going to have to get over it, Fu Dog..." Haley told him, a frown on her face as she walked over to her two friends. "...Thanks for helping. Why don't you two go outside? I'll see you off in a few minutes..."
"Alright..." Leah replied.
As Leah and Destiny turned around and started to leave the room, Haley stepped over to Fu and knelt down in front of him. "Look, I'm sorry that you're so miserable, Fu Dog. But you can't take it out on my friends who are trying to help you out..."
Fu looked at Haley, but he was not paying attention to her words. It took Haley a while to realize what he was paying attention to, but when she looked down at herself, she quickly realized that Fu was looking at her new necklace. "Fu?"
"Is that...?" Fu asked, his eyes widening. "It is! It's the Magic Necklace of Norway!"
"What's that?" Haley asked, not happy that Fu was changing the subject.
"It's a magical necklace from Norway..." Fu rolled his eyes. "...According to what I've read, it can do just about anything. It can cure injuries, it can help you out in times of need. Did I mention that it can cure people of their illnesses?"
"Yeah, you did..." Haley replied, putting her hands on her hips. "...So did Rose. She also told me that it can only work once..."
"Did you already use it?" Fu Dog asked, his eyes widening with hope.
"No..." Haley replied, oblivious to what Fu was thinking about. "...Rose advised me to use it in case of a surprise attack. I agree with her..."
"Yeah. but..." Fu got to his feet and jumped off of the couch, looking up at Haley. "...What about me? Wouldn't it be nice of you to..." He gave Haley his cutest puppy dog look that he could muster. "...show your loyal Animal Guardian some love here?"
"Fu, you can't force Haley to use it on you..." Sun said, closing her book. "...If anything, I think that your condition will serve as a lesson for you..."
"Yeah, well, I was never good at learning..." Fu replied, and he turned his head back to look at Sun. Fu then looked back at Haley, but his eyes widened when he saw that Haley was gone, having left the room.
LINE BREAK
Haley stepped out of the shop, finding Destiny and Leah still standing in front of the shop. "I'm really sorry about the way Fu treated you..." Haley told them. "...He's just...going through a difficult time..."
"We understand, Haley..." Destiny told her, although Haley could see the hurt in her expression. "...Look, Leah and I are both going to head home. We've got some work to do for class..."
"Okay..." Haley replied softly. "...I'll see you tomorrow, then. Once again, I am sorry..."
"It's okay..." Destiny replied as she and Leah started to turn around and walk away. However, once the two girls got far away enough from the shop, Destiny turned her head to look at Leah. "Leah?"
"Yeah?"
"Am I alone in thinking that Fu Dog kind of deserved what he got?"
Meanwhile, Haley turned around and walked back into the shop, still completely unaware that Kenna and The Dragon Father were watching from the roof across from Canal Street Electronics. "What about the friends?" The Dragon Father asked.
"They don't matter..." Kenna told him, now grinning. "...At least...not for now. If I decide to, I can always track down where they live and then carve them up in their sleep. For now, I want to focus on the one who took Jerri away from me. Tonight...we strike..."
LINE BREAK
Stepping back into the back room, Haley looked next to Sun, who was still sitting on the couch, finding that Fu Dog was no longer next to her. Smiling with relief, Haley reached up and took off her necklace as she walked over to Sun, who looked up from her book. "Sun, can you do me a favor?" Haley asked.
"Sure, Haley." Sun said. "What is it?"
"I don't think I trust Fu Dog..." Haley told her as she held out the necklace. "...After all, he was a pickpocket in the early seventies. He might want this. Can you please put this in the safe?"
"Sure..." Sun said, smiling kindly as she reached out and took the necklace. "...It's safe with me..."
Unbeknownst to either of the dragons, at the doorway, Fu Dog was poking his head into the room, listening to the conversation. Chuckling mischievously, Fu slowly pulled away, his head disappearing out of sight.
LINE BREAK
On the Island of Draco, Rose sat in the Main Hall, a small electric scroll in front of her. Rose was so bust looking at the electric scroll that she did not seem to notice that the doors to the Main Hall had opened, nor did she notice that the one who entered the room was her husband. That was, until he spoke: "Everything going okay, Rose?"
"Jake?" Rose asked with surprise, looking up from her device. Giving him a small, loving smile, she nodded. "Yeah, I'm just looking to see if there are any problems in the Magical Wor-" However, Rose stopped as she looked back down at the device, her mouth slowly opening and her eyes widening.
"Rose?" Jake asked, now a little worried. "What is it?"
"You know how Holly had that tracking device put on The Dragon Father?" Rose asked.
"Yeah..."
"Well..." Rose answered. "...It was a smart move. It looks like he's close to Sun's shop..."
"How close?"
"Very..."
LINE BREAK
The sun had gone down, and Kenna and The Dragon Father were still on the roof of the shop that was across the street from Canal Street Electronics. Kenna watched, smiling, as Sun and Haley both stood on the roof in dragon form, both of them reverting to their human forms. The two then started to walk to the door that would taken them down into the shop.
Her smile widening, Kenna clutched her staff tightly, the machete blade popping out from the tip as she spread her wings. "It's time..."
BLACKOUT; COMMERCIAL BREAK
BACK TO THE STORY/SHOW
In the dimly lit back room of Canal Street Electronics, Fu Dog stared up at the big safe that was in the corner of the room. Chuckling, Fu Dog trotted up to the safe. Fu bent all four of his hegs, and then he jumped up, bumping his nose into the keypad before he fell back down to the ground. Fu did this six more times, and after the seventh number entry, the door clicked open as Fu dropped back onto the ground.
"Finally..." Fu said to himself as he used his nose and snout to pull open the safe door. Looking into the safe, Fu scanned through all of the items inside from the top shelf all the way to the bottom, where he finally found Haley's necklace on the very bottom shelf. "...Yes!"
Meanwhile, at the front of the shop, a big orb of fire appeared in the middle of the room. When the fire faded, both Kenna and The Dragon Father were standing in the middle of the room. "Come on..." Kenna whispered fiercely as they started to walk into the back room.
Both Kenna and The Dragon Father were expecting to see Haley and Sun, so when all they saw in the room was an open safe, they were both shocked. "Hang on for a second..." Kenna growled as she started to walk over to the open safe door, just as Fu Dog turned around with Haley's necklace in his mouth.
From the other side of the door, Fu set the necklace on the floor. "Now how do I work this thi-AAHHH!" However, before Fu Dog could even finish his statement, Kenna used her tail to slam the safe door shut, throwing Fu inside and locking him in.
"I hate it when things like that get in the way of my work..." Kenna growled, just as she heard footsteps. Both Kenna and The Dragon Father turned around to see Haley and Sun come down the stairs from the roof. Haley and Sun spotted the two intruders immediately, and they froze.
"Surprised to see me, American Dragon?" Kenna asked. "Did you think that you had seen the last of me after you and your friends defeated me? Well, you're wrong!"
Haley and Sun did not respond to Kenna's comment. Instead, bright lights started to consume them both as they scowled at their enemies, and when the lights had faded, both Sun and Sun were in their dragon forms. "Let me guess, Kenna..." Haley growled. "...You want a fight?"
"However did you know?" Kenna responded, a cruel smile on her face as she pointed her machete-bladed staff at Haley. However, as Kenna did this, Haley glanced down and she could see her necklace just a few inches behind her. Gasping, Haley quickly flew into the air, flapping her wings as she flew toward Kenna. Grinning evilly, Kenna did the exact same thing, flying toward Haley while aiming the machete blade right for her scaly chest.
However, Haley quickly lowered herself in the air, and Kenna gasped, halting in the air as Haley landed right in front of her necklace, bending over and picking it up. Haley smiled as she straightened back up, but her ear twitched as she heard a whistling sound starting to come toward her. Haley's eyes widened, and she ducked, just as Kenna's staff whizzed right passed where her neck had just been.
Haley whirled around, only to grunt as Kenna's tail slammed into her chest, and Haley fell to the floor, looking up at Kenna, who was scowling as she pointed the machete blade down at her. "Get ready, American Dragon..." Kenna growled. "...It's over..."
LINE BREAK
Jake and Rose were both in dragon form when they landed at the front door to Canal Street Electronics. Jake quickly reached out and pulled the door open, and they ran inside, making it into the back room, where they froze.
They could see Sun and The Dragon Father fighting; Sun was delivering punches to The Dragon Father, while The Dragon Father was able to lift into the air and blow fire down at her. Sun managed to jump back, and she blew out her own torrent of fire, which hit The Dragon Father's, preventing it from touching the wooden floorboards.
"Rose, you go help Haley!" Jake told her. "I'll help Sun..." Rose nodded, and she flared her wings, flying over the fighting The Dragon Father and Sun, landing right behind Kenna, who had frozen from her attempt to kill Haley.
"You again?" Kenna asked, lowering her staff and turning around to face Rose. "Why do you keep showing up?" Kenna growled as she swung the staff in Rose's direction, forcing Rose to duck, while Kenna also tried to slam her tail into her chest, forcing her to jump back as well. "You just couldn't be thankful that you were spared before! What is your problem?"
As Rose backed up from Kenna's attack, Haley slowly got to her feet, holding the necklace in her claws. Finally, Haley frowned in determination, looking up just in time to see Kenna throw Rose onto the ground with a torrent of fire. "Now it's time to put an end to your meddlesome habits..." Kenna growled as she lifted her bladed staff over her head, aiming it for Rose's chest.
"HEY!" Kenna once again slowly froze, turning around just in time to have Haley slam her tail right into her face. Kenna grunted as she fell back, right onto Rose, who as Kenna fell, grinned as she brought her tail up into Kenna's back. Kenna was thrown into the air, soaring up toward the roof.
"Here..." Haley said kindly, holding out her claws for Rose to take. Rose smiled thankfully as she accepted Haley's gesture of kindness. Once on her feet, Rose tried to turn and run back over to Jake, who along with Sun, was managing to slowly back The Dragon Father up against the wall.
"Come on, Haley..." Rose said. "...We need to help Jake and Sun."
"But what about this?" Haley asked, indicating to the necklace. "I think it's time..."
"I don't know, Haley..." Rose told her, turning her head to the side so she could talk to her. "...I don't think it matters, though. We need to-" However, Rose quickly stopped talking when she heard flapping; turning her head straight again, Rose could see Kenna flying down from the ceiling with an angry look on her face as she clutched her staff.
"How do I work this thing?!" Haley asked in a panicked tone as she and Rose started to back up, Kenna backing them up into the wall. Sweat pouring down her face, Haley tried to point the necklace at her enemy. "Attack Kenna Zareen! C'mon! Attack Kenna Zar-"
"Give me that!" Rose barked, snatching it out of Haley's hands, starting to swing the necklace as Kenna growled, starting to run toward her two nearly cornered enemies. That was when Rose let go of the necklace, and it flew over to Kenna, bonking her on the forehead, making the evil dragon stop, roaring.
The necklace bounced off of her forehead, and it fell down, the chain landing in her claws. "What is this?" Kenna demanded angrily, completely unaware that the purple gem was starting to disintegrate as she held the chain. Within the blink of an eye, it was gone, and a fairly big explosion came from where the jewel had just been.
Rose and Haley both watched with wide eyes as there was a big explosion right where Kenna had been standing. When the smoke cleared, both could see Kenna rolling across the floor, heading right for where Jake and Sun were fighting The Dragon Father.
"Jake, watch out!" Haley called. "Sun!"
However, neither could hear her, for they were too busy dodging a slash that The Dragon Father was desperately trying to deliver. Kenna rolled right into Jake's feet, followed by Sun's. As Kenna stopped rolling, landing on the floor on her back with a groan, her head rolling to the side and her staff hitting the floor right next to her, Jake and Sun fell over onto the floor.
Shocked, The Dragon Father looked from the motionless Kenna to Sun and Jake lying on their backs, and then to Haley and Rose, who were just standing still in surprise. His lips curling in a scowl, The Dragon Father stepped over to Kenna and bent over and picked up her fallen staff.
This was when the four dragons reacted; Jake and Sun getting to their feet as Haley shouted: "Stop them!"
The four dragons lunged at The Dragon Father, but The Dragon Father was too quick. He tapped the bottom of the handle of the staff on the floor, causing fire to shoot out of the tip. The fire quickly transformed into an orb, covering The Dragon Father and the fallen Kenna. When the orb faded, the two were gone, and the four dragons crashed into each other; Jake into Haley, and Rose into Sun.
With four grunts, the four dragons fell back onto the floor, all four of them reverting to their human forms. Groaning, Haley was the first to pick herself up into a sitting position, just as she heard a shaking sound coming from a couple feet away.
"Huh?" Haley asked herself, and she got to her feet and turned around to face the safe, which was now shaking as though someone was stuck inside, just as Sun, Jake and Rose all sat up. Breaking away from the three others, Haley walked over to the safe, and just as she reached it, a voice started to shout from inside:
"Hey, is anyone there?!" The voice was familiar, and Haley recognized the voice as Fu's. "Anyone?" Fu asked again. "Please, anyone! Please hear me! It's stuffy in here, and I'm sweating!"
"Fu Dog?" Haley shouted. "What are you doing in there?"
"I'm stuck kid!" Fu answered, another shake coming from the safe as Sun, Rose and Jake all approached the safe. "What does it look like?"
"How did you get in there?" Haley asked, but just as she finished asking this, her eyes widened, and she frowned. "Fu Dog, did you try to steal my necklace?"
"Well, I-" Fu tried, but Haley cut her off.
"It's okay, Fu." Haley told him. "Don't worry. I'm going to get you out. Just work with me here. This could take a little time..."
"Okay, that's great, kid..." Fu replied, sarcasm dripping from his voice as Haley turned around to face Sun, Rose and Jake. "...Just hurry, okay?"
"Alright, Fu!" Haley smiled, before she said in a hushed voice to Sun: "Sun, do you mind if we let Fu Dog spend the night in there?"
LINE BREAK
On the Island of Draco the next morning, Jake was in human form, pacing back and forth in worry. "Councilor Long?" Finally, Jake stopped his worried pacing, and he looked up to see a young, female emerald dragon coming up to her. "You called for me, Councilor Long?"
"Yes, Dragon Annelie..." Jake replied, putting his hands behind his back, trying to look professional. "...My sister told me that you wanted glory or something like that..."
"She told you?" Annelie asked, surprised.
"Yeah, she didn't sound very happy..." Jake told her. "...Anyway, the reason I asked for you is because I think I know a way that you can find that glory..."
LINE BREAK
In the Main Hall, Rose sat once again with the electronic scroll in front of her, only this time, she was sitting at the large table. Also this time, she looked up when she heard the big doors opening, Jake and Annelie stepping inside and walking up to her.
"She's agreed to do it..." Jake told his wife as he and Annelie stopped in front of the table. "...Now, have you located The Dragon Father?"
"No..." Rose replied, looking back down at the device. "...Not ye-wait..."
"Did you find something?" Jake asked.
"Maybe..." Rose replied, looking closer. "...Maybe..."
LINE BREAK
On a dirt road, an orb of fire appeared out of thin air. When the orb finally faded, The Dragon Father stood on the dirt road, clutching Kenna's staff. At his feet was Kenna, who was now lying in the dirt, still unconscious.
The Dragon Father glanced down at Kenna for a second before he looked up, his eyes finding a sign at the side of the road: Welcome to Canada.
LINE BREAK
Back in the Main Hall, Rose looked up from the device, an angry and disappointed look on her face. "Did you find them?" Jake asked calmly.
"Yes..." Rose answered. "...Canada..."
BLACKOUT; END EPISODE
