Sooo, another update! Yeah, here it is!
It's not exactly long, but it does move the plot quite a bit, so I consider that to be pretty good.
So, it seems people liked the idea of having Violet as the villain, it's certainly a break from having another whack villain. Plus, I'm not really a fan of the DD...I don't know, we never really found that much about him, so it seems a bit hard to start making judgment calls. Plus, how in the freaking world does that dragon get that big! I mean, seriously, no one else is even half his size, and he's all: magical creature supremacy, or die! It's way too cliche, so that's mainly why I don't put him in my stories...it's just too weird and whack to me.
And can I just add, I hate the new ff layout! It's soo annoying, I really preferred the top menu...although not the 'I move my mouse, the menu changes' but on the side? Blech :/
Anywho, not much more to say here, except please review!
Luiz4200: Yep, I introduced her! Hmm, well, not really. I think that the plot needs to advance a bit more before Violet starts attacking anyone ;) Enjoy the chapter!
ada69: Yep, that hopefully makes it a bit more interesting :D Have updated, finally, so enjoy!
Rik: Yeah! Angry and vengeful twin on the loose! Yep, she's back, and ready to start killing :P Hmm, we'll see who finds out first ;) And well, Rose, I'll just leave you wondering. Enjoy!
Onej6: Two words right back at you: Thank You! Oh yeah, it's interesting when characters aren't the perfect saints, of course, I'm not going to start making them all devillish, much, but still, I agree. Thanks, and with this update, I hope you enjoy!
BlueserDragon: Hmm, yeah, it's dark, but I think it fits this story :D Oh yeah, things are going to get nasty soon, so read on, and enjoy!
Everyone else, please enjoy, and leave me a review!
==That night
Jake had had no luck finding Rose, and he hoped he would find her out and about, hopefully before she slayed him. Thankfully, Jake was doing patrolling alone today, so he wouldn't have to worry about suspicious mutterings by anyone as to why exactly he was acting like a man condemned.
As he flew around a small park, he caught a glint in the bushes. As he neared it, someone lashed out and tackled him to the ground, and Jake saw Rose's blue eyes flashing in fury as she straddled his chest, her staff dangerously close to his neck.
"Give me one good reason Dragon, as to why I shouldn't murder you?' Rose growled.
"Because of my devilish good looks and charm?" Jake tried.
Rose neared the staff to his throat. "Try again."
"Look, Rose, I'm sorry, I – I wasn't dating Danika anymore-" Jake started to explain.
"That kiss wasn't something I see exes do." Rose narrowed her eyes, making Jake shiver at how cold Rose could get.
"I know, but I don't think she got the memo that we were through. Please Rose, I swear that I'm not cheating on you." Jake pleaded, willing for Rose to at least stop looking at him as if she wanted to gut him.
"Please Dragon-" Jake internally groaned as he saw that another tactic was down the drain. "I don't think you're cheating on me, I'm just pissed that you let her come onto you like that."
Jake fumbled, trying to come up with something else. "Rose, look, I didn't know! She surprised me, and when I realized that it wasn't you, I told her off!"
Rose's eyes weren't in the fury mode they were before, but Jake could tell that she was angry. "So what? You let every single girl that catches you unaware to get herself on you, and then ditch them?"
"No! I-" Jake started.
"Shove it dragon. I don't want to hear your excuses." Rose huffed, sitting back.
Her change in position allowed Jake to prop himself up a bit more, and Jake used one of his clawed hands to push Rose's mask back, while the other went behind her head and brought her face flower to his. As their faces neared, Jake transformed, and their lips met.
Contrary to Jake expecting Rose to beat him to the next county, he was pleasantly surprised at her kissing him back with enthusiasm. As they broke apart for their necessary breathing time, Jake tried again. "Look Rose, I truly am sorry ok? How about we go on a date? I've been owing you that for a while now."
Rose smiled a genuine smile as she nodded, and got off Jake. "Sure, that way I don't have to be thinking of horrifying ways to end your life."
"Ouch, can't the AmDrag get some love?" Jake pouted, standing up himself.
Rose giggled. "Oh but it's so much more fun to watch the big bad dragon squirm and try to make a smooth exit out."
Jake passed his hand through his hair, smoothing it back as he suavely said. "The ladies love a smooth man. But hey! I don't squirm!"
As they started walking Rose replied. "No, it's more like you freak the hell out every time that happens."
Jake groaned. "I still have some skills."
"I'm sure you do." Rose giggled.
"Come on! The McDaddy Jake got his lady, didn't he?" Jake wagged his eyebrows.
"Of course, and it has nothing to do with the fact that I saved you from becoming a pair of boots, or whatever that monster wanted to do with you." Rose sighed. "I can't believe I was related to him."
Jake tilted his head a bit. "Don't you have any other family?"
"No, not of my knowledge. You know, I never really bothered to check my files, maybe I'll find out who my parents were!" Rose got excited. She grabbed his hand and, taking out her staff, she teleported them.
==Huntsclan
Jake seriously believed that Rose was out of her mind. But he liked seeing her so happy and carefree. They went into Rose's office, and as they waited for the computer to start, Jake asked, "What happens if you do have family anywhere else?"
"I'll find them." Rose replied, as she entered the Huntsclan files, and searched herself up. It was locked.
"Bummer, I guess he made it impossible-" But before Jake could finish his sentence, Rose apparently managed to open the files. "How did-"
"As leader of the Huntsclan, I get an override code." Rose smirked. She then turned her attention back to the file. "Let's see, Rose Thorn, 18...blah blah blah, training center...Family! Parents- Diana and Jeff Evans, believed to be-"
Jake looked at the word that Rose couldn't utter. Deceased. He didn't know what else to do but to hug her, letting her head rest on his shoulders. She then continued scrolling.
"What's that little number above deceased?" Jake asked, having noticed that.
"It's for footnotes." Rose explained, scrolling down to reach the end of the document. What the two saw horrified them. The Huntsclan had ordered the attack on Rose's parents, and it was left unclear as to their survival of that night. No body had been found, so it was left unclear, but the possibilities were leaning to their death.
Rose went back to where she left off, and scrolled to the next section. "Sister?" Rose asked, reading the title. "Violet Evans, 18, trained at Huntsclan West? I have a sister, who was in the Huntsclan this whole time? What the hell!"
Jake could understand Rose's anger. He started "And it doesn't seem she's dead-"
But Rose shook her head. "Left Huntsclan, and went rogue, location unknown."
"That's another dead end." Jake sighed. "Maybe we can see if Spud knows! We can do a search for your parents, and see if there's anything on them."
Rose looked at him. "You think he'll find anything?"
"We've got to try." Jake smiled.
So! Rose knows she has a sister somewhere in the world [try- in the same building :/] but anyway, Rose is going to try and find her parents...how many people think they're alive?
Oh, and how many people think that, if they're alive, they're going to maul Rose for being Huntress?
Clearly noted I don't have much creativity when it comes to pseudo-OCs. I say pseudo because they're not my original characters, but they become that way with the way I wrote them.
Anywho, yeah! It's hopefully going to be an enjoyable ride with Jake and Rose trying to find more on her parents.
And Violet, yeah...that chick's in for one hell of a surprise!
So, please leave me a review, and I'm getting to start writing the next chapter of Humans!
