"Hey, babie. What's a fine mortal enemy like you doing out here, hunting unicorn foals?" Jake teased, as the huntsgirl and him began fighting.
"I don't know, really, except that I'm bent on slaying you," the huntsgirl answered, jumping as Jake swiped his tail towards her.
"Kid, you gotta get over here. Major crisis at the shop," Fu dog's voice said as his image in a cloud poofed in front of Jake's head.
"Fu, can't it wait? I'm kinda in the middle of something, here," Jake whined as he flew up, seeking escape so he could talk to Fu in peace.
"Kid, just get over here. This message potion only works for like 30 seconds," Fu answered.
"Fine. Just give me a few minutes!" Jake replied as the cloud disappeared.
"Sorry, babie, did you miss-," Jake stopped midsentance as he flew down. The huntsgirl and huntsman were nowhere in sight.
"Awww, man," he whined as he realized the fight was over. He headed back to the shop.
Meanwhile, the huntsgirl watched the dragon from her hiding spot. All was going according to plan.
"Rose! He's getting away! Follow him!" The huntsman commanded. She sighed. Sometimes her uncle could be so pushy. She followed the American Dragon as he headed somewhere. He had to transform sometime, and when she saw who he was, she would report back to the huntsmaster. She ran underneath the flying mythical beast, and was relieved when he didn't notice her. He seemed to be in a hurry, but Rose had been trained to run very fast. He flew into an alleyway beside a store that said, "Grampa's Shop" She jumped silently onto a trashcan, then onto the roof of the store, running as the dragon landed, and then he continued running, running deeper and deeper into the alleyway. It seemed he was running forever when he stopped.
The huntsgirl stopped, wishing she could gasp for breath, but she didn't, because she was sure she would be detected by the dragon then. She smiled to herself as she thought of what they would do to the dragon once they found out his human form. She thought of what she would do to his body, make it into clothes? Or perhaps she would turn his hide into a sword sheith? Or perhaps she would just stuff his body and put it up in her room for a trophy. She grinned as she anxiously waited the time when he would turn into his human form.
When he finally decided no one was around, the dragon transformed into…….Jake? No, wait, she should make sure. Maybe the real dragon just got away somehow. She would wait and see his reaction. Rose leaped from the top of the building and landed in front of him. He immediately went into the fighting stance she had seen the dragon do so many times. It couldn't be.
"Jake?" she mumbled softly in disbeleif. How could her crush be the American Dragon?
Suddenly, her glove came off, revealing the dragon birthmark.
"Rose?" Jake mumbled too, in disbelief. After the longest time, Rose spoke.
"So, we've been fighting each other all this time?"
"I don't know what you're talking about, yo!" Jake said, backing away.
"Oh, stop it. You know who I am and I know who you are," Rose said angrily. She stopped, taken aback by her sudden flash of anger.
"Okay, okay, you got me," Jake said, grinning.
"DRAGON UP!" he yelled, and he was covered in flames. When the flames faded, he was the American Dragon.
"Listen, yo, Rose, I trust you. I won't tell anyone I know, and I hope you'll do the same," Jake said, and Rose nodded.
"Well, I'll, um, see ya later. Fu dog just called. It's supposedly an emergency, though I think it'll just be taking care of Stan or something," Jake said, and Rose waved good bye. She giggled. Fu Dog? Stan? Though she knew she was going to get beaten tonight by her uncle for her failure, she was just going to say that the 'dragon' escaped by flying into the clouds.
