Hey everyone, sorry about chapter seven being a repeat of Chapter 6. I must have added the wrong text! Here's the real end to the story! Enjoy!


R: What, I – I don't know what you're talking about! The Huntsclan killed my mother, and now you're accusing me of being Huntsgirl?

J: Oh puh-lease! It's almost too obvious Huntsgirl.

R: American Dragon, why are you going so high?

J: I'll stop once you admit who you are!

NH: (To Rose's ear bud) Tell him. I'll be here to save you.

R: Fine American Dragon, you got me, but my Huntsmaster doesn't know I'm here. I wanted to make him happy after my most recent screw up.

J: Oh really, well since I have you at such a high elevation, I don't see you going anywhere. Maybe we should take a trip to the Dragon Council.

N: Rose's eyes bugged out and gave him the "please no" look. He gave her a daring smile, but her hands slipped off of his wet neck. She fell back and landed in the water on her back and began to sink to the bottom – not being able to do the dolphin swim, and unable to tear off the mermaid suit. Jake flew nose down into the water, but a boat was already there, and empty. A strange looking man popped out of the water carrying Rose over his shoulder.

NH: (In a false voice) Howdy there dragon. I'm a magical creature hunter, and I was here for a dragon but I'll enjoy a mermaid better. (Jumps into boat, and throws Rose into a net as to look more like he was capturing her) Later dragon. (Speeds into distance)

R: Master, what the heck happened? (Still in net)

NH: The dragons strained the message and realized it came from us. There was a whole fleet against us. I had to run – this time.

R: But the American Dragon was right there! (Still in net)

NH: It was too risky. I had just enough time to grab you out. Sit still, we're almost home.

Northern Huntsclan Field Base

NH: (Has Rose in net over shoulder) I had # 88 and #89 lay out a fresh set of clothing in your room. I'm going to call you in sick tomorrow – or today. Get some rest, be careful with your back, you took a nasty hit on the water. We'll begin training about noon.

N: He sets her down on her bed, and undoes the net.

R: (Providing a semi-false tear) I'm really sorry Huntsmaster. This was supposed to make up for the last time – I guess I'll just have to work harder.

NH: Rose, this wasn't your fault. (Sitting down on her bed) You did everything that I asked you to. You went out, dated the dragon, got him in the water, didn't use sarcasm, and I know you tried to get out of the way when I gave the signal. Don't worry about it. We'll have another try. Good night.

Southern Huntsclan Academy

SH: EVERYONE LINE UP! (Everyone shoots into line from their rooms) Now, it should be clear that there is a dragon. The question of who is now answered.

N: Huntsgirl could feel her pulse rocket, and looked for the fastest exit.

HG: (Thinking) He knows it's me. I can't stop this. I just have to hold my breath, wait for him to say my name, and stand still to be killed.

SH: The dragon that has put you all through torture these last few weeks is… #93!

#93: What?! It wasn't me! I swear!

SH: Son, please, you can't convince me. The results are 1005 positive.

HG: (Thinking) Some of my hair must have gotten mixed with his, and they checked his first!

SH: 93 please come with me to the dungeons to await your sentencing.

#93: No! Because I'm not a dragon! You can't prove it.

SH: I already have. (Growing angrier) (Pointing staff to 93's head) now leave before you become a trophy.

#93: No!

N: The Huntsman's staff begins to warm up and glow.

SH: Last chance!

#93: No!

SH: I'm sorry then…

HG: STOP! (Crying) I'm the dragon! (Transforming) The Demon Dragon insisted that my grandparent was a dragon. I guess that the only thing this cat is, is a fish! I didn't want to believe him, but part of me did. So I tried it. (Pausing) You're just going to have to have to slay me.

SH: Alex, I can't slay you!

#93: Why not, you were just about to slay me!

HG: (Still crying) You have to! It's the HHC:

Keep Guard – I'm too much of a distraction!

Protect the Huntsman – You know I'm a danger to you sir.

Protect the Huntsclan – I'm a HUGE danger to the clan!

Be vigilant – Yea right!

Take orders without questions – I know you won't be able to take me seriously!

Don't hesitate – They're my kind! There may always be hesitation!

Know the facts – The fact is, I'm a dragon.

(Bawling) And never show a dragon mercy – ever

Just do it behind the left ear, please.

N: The Huntsman slowly walked up to Alex. It had been the first time that he'd called her by her real name. It seemed to humanize her more than he wished. #93 turned away.

SH: (Thinking) She's been the perfect Huntsgirl! I can't slay her. Wait no! The HHC. I can't break that. I've known her so long. She's a thirteen-year-old girl. There have probably been children I've slain before. What if it's true, what if she really is part of the property? Look how scare she looks. Crying, wanting me to kill her, because she thinks she's doing the right thing! Ugh, the HHC. No, no mercy. I have to follow it.

N: He switched the staff to blade and placed it under her left dragon ear. She stood firm and still. Tears streaming out of her dragon eyes, tears trickling out of his.

HG: (Thinking) So this is how I end? In front of a crowd. Powerless, friendless, worthless. Never knew my parents. To be killed by the man who I looked at as a father. And yet, I do not blame him at all. It's the dragons. Always have been, always will be. (Speaking) Huntsmaster-

SH: WHAT? Can't you make it easy and just let me finish this before I can't do it!

HG: I'm sorry, but before you do it, I would like to ask that there be no large ceremony or sorrow. Think of me as any other dragon. Have a celebration if you must.

SH: As you wish Hunts – Alex.

N: He tightened his grip on the staff and positioned it right as he wanted it. #'s 1 and 2 had tied Alex to the ground with rope so she couldn't back out. He colored pelt sparkled in front of everyone in the fluorescent lighting.

HG: Huntsmaster, thank you. Thank you or all of these great years. Thank you for being my father.

SH: Please, Alex, don't make this any harder than it has to be.

HG: Master –

SH: I'm not your Master anymore Alex.

HG: Sir, I'm not trying to prevent what must be done, I just wanted to do what was right. I may be a filthy disgusting, horrifying dragon, but I am a bit civilized. So please, do what you must.

SH: Well, you're welcome Alex, but it is time. I apologize about this. Nothing like this should ever happen again!

N: Alex took a deep breath and waited for the darkness. She could feel the sharpness of the blade against the back of her ear. The pressure was gaining, and there was no way to control her tear flow.

HG: (Thinking) Huntsmaster, forgive me. I never wanted to put anyone through this. I don't know what I was thinking. I should have come to you sooner. If there's a place in your heart to forgive me, please, open it up. I'm so sorry!

SH: (Thinking) Alex, forgive me. I had no idea it would come to this. I just want it to be over, and you and I in the Huntsclan competition. Please forgive me for this horrid sin I am about to commit. Although the HHC says never give a dragon mercy, it also says to protect the clan, and this is not protecting you. I hate making you feel embarrassed and worthless in your last few minutes. Your name will go down in Huntsclan history as one of the greatest warriors ever. I'm sorry that I never promoted you to full master, I was scared that it would be too much. 5… 4…3…2……..1…..

T: STOP!

SH: For the love of God! What now?

Huntsman, stop! You can't do this to her.

SH: (Partially crying partially angry)Why not?

T: Because, because I'm her father, and this was my fault I never explained our history-

SH: This is the daughter that you've consistently talked about for two years, and then nothing?

T: Yes, you must trust me. I can prove it too. Inside her necklace, is our entire family history. Dragons, witches, wizards, and Huntsclan. I told her never to open it, because the truth would be so dangerous – especially to her. You don't have to kill her for something that's not her fault!

SH: We must. You know that! I know that you're only a teacher, and don't get out in the field too much, but the HHC is not a debatable topic.

HG: He's right – dad. Not even I would attempt to disagree with it! For instance, when I slain the mother and father dragons in front of their six-year-old child, do you think that I wanted to? You think that my goal was to destroy that child or I'm completely heartless? No! But the HHC is non-negotiable. That's why I must be slain. Slain for the Huntsclan by the Huntsclan. Do it Master!

SH: I'm not your master!

HG: Just do it now!

T: Huntsman, think about it. She's your most loyal warrior.

HG: Dad, stop talking. Master, do it!

SH: I said I'm not your master!!

HG: Fine! Mortal enemy, do it!

SH: Well if you would give me a minute –

HG: I've given you ten! Stop dragging it out!

T: Huntsman –

SH: Well if you would tell your dad to shut up!

HG: I already did! So what are you waiting for?

SH: You want to know what I'm waiting for? You really do?

HG: Yes, yes I do! Tell me straight out too! It's not like I'll be alive much longer to care! So tell me what you're waiting for! Do it!

SH: Dang it! I'm waiting for it to be okay to kill a thirteen-year-old girl that I've raised like a daughter!

N: There was a long awkward silence. Witnesses have claimed it to be ten minutes and longer.

HG: You've thought of me like a daughter?

SH: Yes? Why do you think that I let you out of your room during the shut down, and that I said I would take you to the Huntsclan Competition no matter what happened?

N: Alex didn't know how to answer him.

SH: You, teacher! Why did you never tell me this?

T: I didn't realize who she was until I saw the necklace at the Big Foot class. You can't slay her! You even said it yourself! The only thing better than slaying a dragon is taming one!

SH: (Pausing) Alex? How do you feel about that?

HG: (Crying again) Sir, I'll always by loyal to the Huntsclan. I'd do anything for you. You know that!

SH: (Sighs) Then, under my orders, it is my pleasure to grant – Alex – Huntsgirl – and eternity of immunity from being slain as she always follows and lives by the HHC and the HCC. Who knows, maybe one day soon she'll become a Huntsmaster and get to deal with the next Huntsgirl.

HG: Thank you so much sir, I won't let you down.

#7: Huntsmaster, the scanners have picked up several dragons at Sole Search Park.

SH: Well, come on Huntsgirl, let's go Dragon Hunting.

HG: What ever you wish – Master.
