Chapter 10
_____________________________________________________________________
Jake could see, Brad and Mr. Smith leaving the police-car when he landed a few houses away on another roof. He took the old phone and warn the other dragons. He think: why they not use an normal cell phone, Jake had a more than 20 years old normal house-telephone without buttons, it have a dial. But it works, so Jake contact the others, instead of Kukulkan and his parents who where still in the cellar.
_____________________________________________________________________
From the backside of the Smith's house, Haley coulnd't see the police car. She look around but there was nobody in sight. But than she could see her brother on a roof, a few houses away. She wink, but than she realize that he want to call her something.
_____________________________________________________________________
The Longs and Kukulkan got two, big boxes with paper and documents with the 'big H'. Kukulkan was happy because now they could find out a little more about the Huntsclan. But than the front door opens again.
"I swear you it was on the cellar." Mr. Smith's voice appear.
Jonathan switch off the light and all hide again behind the other boxes. But before they could... the light switch on and a angry voice shout...
_____________________________________________________________________
Jake landed in front of Haley and told her about that what he have seen. When both ran to the Smith's house they could hear the angry voice of Mr. Smith. They open the back-door and hide behind the wall so they could hear what they say...
____________________________
"Mr. Smith.... we can explain..." Jonathan said but Officer Morton interruped him.
"Oh, well you can explain that at the police station..."
"But officer," Kukulkan beseeched "what we doing here is very important."
Brad, who risk a view into the cellar, recognized Kukulkan and shout.
"DAD, DAD, that is one of the monsters who wanted to eat me!!!"
"WE DIDN'T WANTED TO EAT YOU!!!" Kukulkan cries and hold her mouth, now she betrayed herself.

In front of the house the other concilours, FuDog, Trixie and Spud arrived. They kick down the door and run into the house where Officer Morton start to handcuff Mr. and Mrs. Long when the dragons flew into the room. Brad started to shout and run away but Jake and Haley catch him.
Jonathan started to hit Officer Morton into the face. Both fighted and than they fall down the stair into the cellar.
"Dad!" Jake and Brad shout. Brad flee from Jake and run down the stair to his injured father. Jonathan was fortunatly uninjured.
Mr. Smith wanted to run away, too. But the concilours catch him and hold him in the house.
Jonathan walk up the stair and embrace his wife, happly but than a loud shoot appears and the light on the celling broke. Everybody run away. A second shout hit a cupboard at the wall. Broken dish fall loudly on the ground. Brad appears with his father's gun in the door and shoot at everything what move.
The phone at the kitchen-wall rang and Brad shoot it broken.
_____________________________________________________________________
Mrs. Smith stood with her cell phone in front of the police-station and was afraid when she hear a loud bang. She run to her car and race away.
_____________________________________________________________________
At the Smith's house the dragons force Brad and threw the gun into the kitchen. Everybody was relived. But than a big, white shining stone flew threw the window between the dragons and every dragon morph back and fall down on the ground. Jake and the other dragons where too weak to stand up.
Only the humans stand. When Brad wanted to run away again somebody shoot in the wall in front of him. He stoop and took his hands high. Everybody was confused to see the old Mr. Smith and the Smith's daughter with huntsclan weapons in the living room.
_____________________________________________________________________
Mrs. Smith drive very fast above the highway, only five minutes away from her house, with the fear that something terrible happend.
_____________________________________________________________________
Everybody in the house was very confused to see the both people with huntsclan-stuff. Now the concilous realize that they have to be also know everything above the huntsclan.
"Everybody on the ground!" the daughter shout "Not you dad, come here!"
Mr. Smith walk slowly to them, still afraid of all that almost unconcinous people in the room. A few seconds later Officer Morton appears, injured, in the door. The old Mr. Smith shoot in the wall next to him so that he also lay down on the floor.

at the other side of the wall the gas pile broke
"What do you do?" one of the concilours asked.
"What we doing? We do that what the organisation my other grandfather paid, never arrive! Kill the American Dragon!" the girl explain and walk to Jake who still lays on the floor, almost unconcinous.
"How... how you..."
"How we expose you?" the girl asked. "That was easy after I my mother told me that she see you at the window.

FLASHBACK: (the girl explain)
At that night, my mother almost crie. I had pity for her, so I walk to the cellar, to look for a flashlight because I wanted to seach 'it'. Than I found that documents in the box. I remembered that symbol and asked my grandmother. She told me what she know and I remembered where I see you last time.
Months ago the news told something about a explosion on the roof of the Pantheon-builiding. During a school-dance. And the news shows you, during the party at the roof, filmed by one of your classmates with a cell-phone-camera, when a helicopter with that symbol the 'big H' appear and everybody run away instead of you and that both fools.
"Hey!" Trixie and Spud shout.
Than I try to find out more about you and your family. I found a hideout in a former subway staition with that stuff and some files above a creature called American Dragon. Than my mother saw 'it' again and I'm too. You landed behind the house and morph into your human form.
Than after a few weeks I collect informations, I met that dump guy who is a emeny of you as human. (Brad was very offended) I send him to that electronic-shop to find out more for me.
"You broke into a house!!!" Officer Morton shout at his son. "When we alive that, you have house-arrest, until you are 30."
Shut down. I know I shouldn't did that, I forget that they are that humans there. So I gone back to that hideout, take this stuff and that stone, I don't know what it is but it's your weakness.
_____________________________________________________________________
"But dragon's aren't bad!" Jake explain. "They protect the magical-world, and safe all the magical-creatures living in both worlds.
"In both worlds?" Brad asked but than the old man hit him. "Be quiet!"
"I have to agree that was not my first plan..." she start to tell.
"I found out my parent's where almost bankrupt, they need money. The bank will get away us all, because my dearing daddy (and than she pointed the weapon at him) is a loser in that things."
"Hey, I did what I could. I ever wanted the best for you, your mother and you dad." he explain.
"But I gonna be worse and worse. So when I found out who you are, Jake Long, when this is your right name,..."
"What do you mean with: when this is my right name?" Jake interrups.
"I don't know... ," the girl said. "...but that's not important now..."
______________________________________
during she talks, the gas still leak out of the pile
"I'd think that is the best way to come out of the liabilities of my family. I even wanted to share with Brad, but..."
"What you wanted to share with me money... you never tell me that..." Brad said, and started to lie: "If I'd know that, I never helped you!"
"Aw, please... you are one of the worst, and most self love humans we know!" Kulde said with a smile. And every other concilour had to laugh.
"I'D SAID BE QUIET!!!" the girl shout and shoot into the celling. A big debris pile fall down and hit the coffee-table.
"But when your friends met Brad in the shop, my perfect plan was ruined. And now, I haven't another choice, I have to kill you, your fellows will hunt me to the other end of the world."
Mr. Smith look at his daughter and feel guilty. She did that for her family. But she became evil, she wanted to kill all people in the room, the half of them almost unconcinous. But than he look at his father who also became unconcinous.
"DAD!" Mr. Smith shout and run to his father. When he stood above him he smell some strange. He look above at the big hole his father shoot into the wall and realize that it was gas...
"Oh my god, please don't shoot with that thing!" Mr. Smith beseeched his daughter. "Please, don't shoot. The gas pipe broke!"
"WHAT!" everybody shout.
That's enough. Jonathan stood up catch the shinx-hair. And threw it into the cellar. The Smith's daughter was still afraid when every dragon get his power back and she and Haley start to fight. The wheapon threw through the air, smash at the wall and start to peep.
"What is that?" Brad asked.
"Oh, no! The last time I heard that was when we destroyed the huntsclan stuff at the dump." Spud explain. "THAT'S THE SELF-DESTRUCTION!!!"
Everybody run out. Some dragons transformed and get one of the humans to safe them. At that moment Jake leave the house with the Smith's daugther in his arms, they where the last, a big shockwave of an explotion hit Jake and smash him to an parked car on the other side of the street.
