Chapter 14: A Plan of Chaos
"So where do we start…master?" Chang turned around to her leader, the Dark Dragon. The two were right now in Isle de Draco, preparing for their plan.
The Dark Dragon peeked out his head, and looked at the rocky island around him. From where they were standing, it looked deserted. But on the other side of the rocks, they knew there were a bundle of dragons. "We shall head off into the elevator, and stop where it takes us…" He answered his partner.
"Through the elevator?" Chang turned around raising both eyebrows. "We could get caught. No, I say we do an aerial exit; start into the Caribbean…" To Chang, it was easier to just leave now, by flying off the island. Instead of seeking through it, and going into the elevator.
He glared at his servant, and grabbed her shirt. "We must go through the elevator. If we go into the skies, they are sure to find us. It will be easier to take them off in the cities, than in here. Plus, you must save your strength." He dropped her down. Chang got back her breathe, and agreed with him. She must agree, because there was no way you could question, the Dark Dragon.
Chang then went into dragon form, and moved behind the Dark Dragon. He then jumped off the rock, and flew close to the ground; Chang trailed behind him. At least they were on the obstacle course area, so no one could see them yet.
Once they reached toward the end of the course, it started to get a bit harder than this. Chang poked her head through; the place was surrounded by dragons. There best hope was to lie low, until none were in the area.
About 5 minutes later, the last dragon turned his back. This was their only chance, for now. The Dark Dragon flew forward, swift and sleek as possible. Chang followed, trying to be just as quiet as him.
After they passed by the city, it was home stretch from here. The Dark Dragon quickly pressed the button to open the elevator. He looked inside, to see a small goblin wearing a bellboy costume. The goblin recognized the mysterious dragon, and opened his mouth to yell for help. The Dark Dragon quickly grabbed the goblin up, and closed his mouth.
Eventually, Chang made it pass the dragons, and went into the elevator. She pressed the top button on the elevator, and the doors closed shut. The goblin in the Dark Dragon's grip was slowly suffocating. Soon it dripped to the floor, unable to move. He knew that with him out of the picture, no one knew their arrival. So far, their plan was running smoothly.
Jake walked into his grandfather's shop early Saturday morning. He was super bummed, that his plan wasn't going so well. He has tried almost anything possible to keep everyone happy; but no one is happy now. So he just decided to chill on the couch, thinking of the future.
Trixie and Spud entered through the door. "Hey Jake." Spud waved over to his best friend. "Me and Trix are going to head down to the skate park. Wanna join?"
"Sorry guys. I can't even leave the house without getting trampled by people…" Jake said, sighing.
Trixie walked up to Jake, and put one arm around his shoulder. "Who cares about those people? Come on Jakey, you can't slave away a whole Saturday, doing nothing." She tried to convince him. Jake didn't look at her; he kept his face forward, staring out the window. He had no response, for her. "Alright fine. If you want us, we will be havin' some fun." Trixie jerked Spud's shirt. "Come on, Spud." Spud turned back at glimpse at Jake, then turned around and left with Trixie.
Jake remained in his position, and didn't move a muscle. Gramps stared at his grandson, from across the way. "I don't know Gramps. Unless a miracle happens, I'm probably going to lose my dragon powers…" He finally spoke.
Lao Shi went over to the couch, and sat next to Jake. "Do not worry yourself, young dragon. The council trusts you, I'm sure they would never take away your powers…" He tried to cheer Jake up. But it didn't help… "But come, I cannot allow you to waste a perfect day, indoors. You shall come with me, to inspect the city." Gramps jumped up from the couch, and headed toward the door.
Not only was just upset, but he really hated doing inspections. Most of them were pointless, and there was no action. But when his grandfather told him something to do, it was best to do what he says. So Jake slumped off the couch, and pouted over to Gramps. Simultaneously they dragoned up, and flew out the doorway.
The Dark Dragon and Chang exited out of the elevator. It seemed to now be in some sort of…train station. "Chang, where are we!?" He ordered to Chang.
She inspected the area, looked around the place. "It seems we landed in…a train station."
All around them were humans. Nasty, useless humans. "Finally, it's about time these humans get what they deserve!" He yelled aloud. Suddenly all eyes were on them. The Dark Dragon then lifted up his claws, can called forth four shades. Each of them ran around the train station, scaring away the people. He then opened up his mouth, and blew out a start purple fire. The fire set the train station on fire, and the two of them escaped before it caved in.
Now out of the station, it was clearer to see where they were at. "Master, we're in New York? Are you sure you want to start…here?" She said. Though Lao Shi and Jake seemed easy to defeat, they were the only two dragons currently to stop the Dark Dragon from his plans. And it just so happened that they were in their neck of the woods.
"Do not mind the American Dragon. He is weak, he will be use to defeat. Come, we must start… our rain of terror." He flew into the air, soaring down to Times Square. Each passing building, the Dark Dragon blew his hot flames over, causing them to scorch. He let his shades go farther into the cities, to cause as much chaos as they could.
Going deeper into the city, Jake and Gramps flew above the buildings, looking the area. So far, it seemed as if everything was safe and sound. Surprisingly, no humans were bothering them today.
Jake held his head downward, still a bit depressed. But then, his eyes caught site, of the road below. He bent his head closer down, to get a better look.
Lots of fire trucks, were rushing down each road. Soon a bunch of people ran down the sidewalks, as if they were being chased. Jake flew down closer, to see if he can find out what was going on.
"Help, help me!" Yelled one lady. "My, house, it's on fire!" Another man yelled out. "They…they tried to kill me!!"
Tried to kill me? That doesn't sound like your normal every day problem. Jake zoomed in lower, to see what the people were saying; however they ran from Jake every time he came toward them.
Jake looked onward, down the road more. He was little shadow figures, chasing people down the street. "Shades?" He questioned himself. Then, he looked upward, and saw them. He snarled his face, and stared evilly ahead. "The Dark Dragon."
Seems the Dark Dragon has attacked.Guess it's up to Jake, to save the day!! Or not... :O
