"DRAGON UP!" Roxanne shouted. Seconds later, a blue dragon stood in front of Jake and Fu Dog.
"Good. Now, let's have your dragon fire practice"
"Aw come on, dad, that's basic, I know it already"
"Roxanne, it is important to master your basics-"
"But I've been practicing them since I was seven!" Roxanne said, turning back into a human.
"Seven?" Fu said, for a moment looking confused. "Oh, that's right. Unlike you, Jake was only able to tap his dragon power when he was thirteen" he said. "Guess girls really do mature faster than boys"
Jake gave an irritated glare at him before turning back to his daughter. "Look, Roxanne-"
He wasn't able to continue when something inside Fu rang. Loud. The gray dog searched through his wrinkles until he found his cellphone.
"Yo… uh-huh… yeah… ok… got it." He looked at Jake and Roxanne. "There's trouble at Central Park"

"Alright, now hand over your gold" the Huntsmaster said to two male leprechauns.
"Never!" they both replied in their Irish (is that right?) accent.
The Huntsboy raised his staff.
"Hey! Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"
The two turned to find Roxanne in her dragon form. The leprechauns escaped when their attention was diverted.
Huntsboy attacked her. "Why don't you learn to mind your own business?"
"This is my business, you idiot" Roxanne replied, breathing blue fire.
"Too bad you don't know how it's done"
Roxanne scowled.
Meanwhile, the Huntsmaster was beneath a tree, looking at the two battle.
"So, that's the new American dragon?" a voice said from the trees.
"Yes" he replied, looking up. Standing on a branch were two females. First was a tall woman in an outfit much like the Huntsmaster, except that she had no dragon skull on her head but just a mask. The second was a girl in a Huntsgirl outfit.
"She looks weak" the girl said.
"Looks aren't everything" the woman said. "But why don't you find out for yourself?"
The Huntsgirl smiled, took out her staff and jumped down.
"You should just leave this to us" the Huntsmistress said.
"Very well" the Huntsmaster replied.
Back with Roxanne and the Huntsboy, Roxanne was winning. She kicked the Huntsboy with her tail, sending him backwards.
"Oh yeah, I am so good" she said cheekily. She started again towards the Huntsboy when a green blast got in her way.
"Hey!"
"Why don't you try me, dragon?"
Roxanne turned towards the new voice. "What the- Who are you?" Roxanne asked, staring at the new comer.
"I'm the Huntsgirl and." She got into a fighting stance. "Your worst nightmare" she said before she attacked. "AIYA!"
Roxanne barely avoided the kick. "That was too close"
"Not close enough!" Huntsgirl shouted and attacked again, this time, hitting her target.
Roxanne slammed into a tree. "Ow…" She glared at the Huntsgirl.
"That all you got, dragon?" she said.
"Oh, it's on." Roxanne got up. She and the Huntsgirl had started towards each other when fire came out from above them.
"Dad!" Roxanne said. Jake landed beside her, staring at the Huntsgirl with narrowed eyes.
"Time to leave" Jake said.
"But-"
"Now"
Roxanne frowned but flew up with her dad anyway.
"I'll get you next time, dragon" Huntsgirl said just as the Huntsmistress appeared.
"What happened?"
"She got away but I could have slayed her if it wasn't for that red dragon that appeared out of nowhere and-"
"Red dragon?" the Huntsmistress interrupted.
The Huntsgirl took off her mask and looked up at her master. "Yes, is something wrong?" Jasmine asked.
Rose took off her mask too, looking deep in thought. "Um… no, it's probably nothing. Let's go home." She started to walk out of the park
Jasmine stared at her mom's back, frowning. Her mom had been acting so weird lately. Every since they had arrived in this place. She sighed and followed her mother.
"And Jasmine" Rose said, stopping. "Never take off your mask like that again, especially in public"
Jasmine blinked and nodded. "Ok. Sorry"
Rose turned her head and smiled. "Come on"
