Ok I almost forgot I had to update today. I won't be replying to reviews in this chapter because I am in a hurry. There is a comment I want to reply to, though.

LOL. I agree that the chapters with Hunter in them are much more enjoyable to me. But I do want to try and have the POV of others, so I will be switching back and forth. As for Hunter…Here's a chapter with him. LOL

Ok, I'm about to head off to a root canal….yay? So, Again, I'll reply to the reviews in my next chapter. Thank you all for sticking with this.

(In the Cave, Hunter's POV)

"Yeah right!" I declared in disbelief. Staring at Kendra, I just couldn't bring myself to believe her words. "So, basically, we have dragon…." Shaking my head, I searched for the right word. "Halves, to us… Right?"

She nodded grimly, that same dark look in her eyes that I recalled from the dream. Still she remained silent, staring at me expectantly.

She wasn't the only one.

Looking around the circle, I noticed everyone was looking at me, mixed expressions on all their faces. But one expression they all shared with me, was doubt. Turning my gaze back to Kendra, I raised an eyebrow. "So we have dragon blood in our veins and need to bonds with these dragon spirits before some…" Now my other eyebrow rose and I stared at her incredulously, although a small part of me believed her at this point. "Evil force is looking for a dark power capable of destroying the world."

Blinking at the words I chose, I quickly looked at Cam and narrowed my eyes. "Dude, I've been hanging around you way too much!"

Tori grinned and Blake, Dustin and Shane chuckled. Cam simply glared at me for the comment. "That, if anything, would be beneficial to you." He deadpanned, making Blake grin even more, and Kendra's lips twitched in a barely concealed smile. "But we can discuss that later, now really isn't the time."

Right, back on topic. I thought as I turned back to Kendra, who was standing by the entrance to the cave. "Yeah, my point is if we have dragon blood, how come I remember having clearly human parents?"

Now it was her turn to raise an eyebrow. "I stated Dragon Clan." She said pointedly. "Humans with the ability to turn into dragons because of the dragon blood in their veins. You remember having human parents, right?"

I nodded silently.

Folding her arms over her chest, she sighed. "So tell me, what do you remember of your birth parents?"

I opened my mouth to tell her when it hit me, I didn't know anything. Faint, blurry images of a man and woman crossed my mind, and I clearly remembered the necklace the woman put around my neck. Instinctively, my hand reached for it and clenched it as I fought to remember more, but it was in vain, as the blurry images faded.

Now her tone softened. "You don't remember, do you?" With another sigh, she let her head drop as she stared at the ground. "Just answer me this. What could I possibly gain from lying to you?"

I closed my mouth again, staring at the ground with a frown as I begrudgingly admitted that there was nothing she could really gain. "Fine. Whatever." I mumbled, wanting to just drop it. I was still clenching my necklace and as soon as I realized that, I quickly dropped it and stood rigidly with my friends. Faintly, I noticed that they all had looks of concern on their faces, even Blake, although his look of confusion mirrored mine, making me think that he probably didn't remember his birth parents either.

Closing my eyes, I took a deep breath and held it as I counted backwards from ten. When I opened them again, I saw everyone was looking around the cave, and they seemed to be waiting. "So what now?" I finally asked, raising my eyes to stare at Kendra. "We go through the forest and find the dragons?"

Her look turned troubled and I felt suspicion rise in me. Narrowing my eyes, I glared at her, resisting the urge to grab her arms and yell at her. "What are you hiding?" I asked lowly.

"There'll be tests." She stated vaguely. "After you bond, to help you adjust." Looking away, she stepped out of the entrance of the woods, and her figure seemed to grow darker. It took me a moment to realize it was because the cave was lighter than the woods themselves.

Suddenly, she spun in place, and a forced grin appeared on her face. "So, you think you can keep up?" she asked teasingly before turning and taking off.

Oh, man! Not again! I thought with a groan as I took off after her, hearing the others behind me. "Hey! Wait up!"

(Storm Chargers, Normal POV)

"I understand." A young woman with long red hair, blue eyes and a nametag that read 'Kelly Holloway' on it, stated in a calm voice, although her face seemed strained. Taking a book from a young man, she flipped through it before going back to something he had pointed out earlier. "You're looking for this model, right?"

The young man leaned forward with a bit of a frown and looked at the image before nodding silently.

"Well it's not in until next week." She insisted, pointing to a date under the article. "See?"

His frown deepened and his eyes narrowed as he read it before they closed and he sighed. "Alright, thanks." He said with a bit of a smile. "Sorry about the mix up."

Nodding with a tight smile, Kelly handed him the booklet and waved as he headed out of the store. Looking around at all the customers, she closed her eyes and massaged her temples as she headed over to a young woman at the rollerblading section. Dustin, you'd better get back here. She thought darkly, not at all impressed by his lack of showing up. "Then again, Hunter and Blake both skipped out with him." She grumbled as she approached the girl and pasted a smile on her face. Why do I put up with them?

"Hi. Welcome to Storm Chargers, can I help you with anything?" she asked.

The girl spun to Kelly with startled green eyes, that almost seemed to glow, but blinking a moment, Kelly noticed they seemed normal. Great, now I'm seeing things. She thought in irritation, trying to control her temper as she watched an older man walk in with a kid who ran straight to the motorbikes and began playing around. Taking a deep breath, she looked back to the girl and noticed she seemed about the same age with short red hair.

"I'm alright." The girl stated quietly as she looked back at the hiking gear in front of her. "Just browsing."

"Ok." Kelly stated agreeably with a nod, her gaze once again turning to the child as he began to play with the switches on the bike. Jumping in worry, she ran over and quickly grabbed the kid's hand before it could hit the ignition, barely concealing a growl when she realized Dustin had left the keys in it when he brought the bike in earlier. "Don't touch that!" she stated firmly as she swiftly removed the keys and let the kid's hand go again.

"Sorry about that, miss." The elder man stated as he quickly walked over, grabbing the child's hand. "Sky, you know not to play with things." He scolded lightly.

The kid seemed about 3 or 4, and his lip began to tremble as he looked at the older man. He had dirty blonde hair that bordered on being sandy in color, and light blue eyes.

"He's always getting into things." The stranger continued with a smile. "I was checking the place out. I think my wife would like it here." He stated with a smile.

Nodding to him, she smiled as he nodded and walked out of the store with the boy.

"Excuse me."

Jumping in startlement, Kelly spun to find the red headed girl from earlier, standing behind her. "Um, yes?"

"Sorry." The strange girl stated with a bit of a grin. Holding up some hiking ropes, she shrugged. "I was just wondering if I could buy these?"

Nodding with a forced smile, Kelly once again found herself mentally cursing the guys for taking off on her, as she led the girl over to the cash and rung in the ropes.

This is so not my day!

I'm sure you'll notice that some chapters are shorter or longer than others. It's because I am changing at POV/Scene changes, to help it move along more smoothly than if I just cut it off during a scene.

I've noticed it's still kinda boring, but I'm hoping to bring the action up a bit in the next chapters.

Oh, and I know Kelly's not really important in the story… Well, this story, but like in the show, I just wanted to try something different. LOL. And the red head was designed after an OC a reviewer of Windian Baby sent me. I'm still deciding on whether or not to really include her.

Did the kid sound familiar at all? LOL Don't ask me why I mentioned him, I just kind of felt like it while writing this chapter.
