Chapter 3: Defending The Phoenix

"Yo!" Jake said to Grandpa while they were flying. "Why did you leave Fu and Magenta together, Gramps? They can't stand each other! Well, Magenta doesn't mind Fu, but he minds her!"

"I know, Grandpa relied, but maybe having to work together for two weeks will teach them to get along."

"Wait a minute! You only said we might be gone for two weeks!" Jake said looking puzzled.

"I am aware of that, young dragon. If our services are not neede past a week, I think I just saw a nice little hotel down below, with a pool and spa. We could just vacation there for a week after we complete our mission..." Grandpa trailed off.

"Gramps! You the man!" Jake said, slapping Grandpa a high five.

"So, I take it you would not mind having a little vacation?"

Jake laughed.

"Not at all!"

FLASH

Fu and Magenta had only been inside the shop for five minutes, and already Magenta had begun to annoy him!

Right now, she was skipping around, singing her own version of the American Dragon theme song.

"American Shapshifter!" Magenta sang out gleefully. "American Shapeshifter! She's the American Shapeshifter! Shapeshift with the puppy! She's shapeshifting much faster, with Fu Dog, her master! Her destiny will walk up streets! Showtime baby for the legacy!"

It was SO annoying!

"Magenta, please stop.." Fu moaned.

"But why?" she asked.

"Because I said so.."

"But why did you say it?"

"Because you're being anno- oh, forget it!" Fu cried, confused.

"Ok!" Magenta replied.

She continued skipping and singing her song until she tripped and fell. She giggled.

"Now the STARS are skipping!"

Fu Dog rolled his eyes. This was just too much! He still couldn't belivev that he was possibly STUCK with her for two weeks! He sighed. This was so unfair!

FLASH

"We have arrived, young dragon." Grandpa announced.

"Alright!" Jake cried, "I almost thought we'd NEVER get here!"

The two dragons swooped down onto the Statue of Liberty. This was where the Pheonix was supposed to be. Jake inspected the whol statue, and sure enough, he saw a giant bird with with beautiful golden feathers asleep in a nest. When she awoke, he saw eyes colored with a deep, cerulean blue.

'It makes me think of what Rose would look like as a Phoenix!' Jake thought, chuckling to himself.

Too bad she was the Huntsgirl, his arch foe, Ever since he had learned the truth about her identity, he hadn't been able too look at her the way he'd used to.

The Pheonix had spotted Jake by now, and she let out a loud, fearful screech. It was so loud, it knocked Jake off of the statue!

"Hey! Don't worry, baby!" Jake shouted over the screeching as he flew back onto the statue. "The mackdaddy American Dragon's in da heezy! Ain't nobody even gonna think about attakcing you with the Am-Drag on the scene!"

As soon as he had said that, a net was fired from somewhere, trapping the Pheonix under it. Jake quickly ran over, and tried to rip it with his claws. However, the net was so strong, that he had to eventually use his teeth to break it. When he was finished, he wiped a drop of sweat from his forhead.

"Phew!"

Then, he heard a low chuckle. Jake turned and was suddenly face to face with the Huntsgirl!

"I can see that you've already freed my prisoner." She growled, "Oh well, first I'll slay you. Once you're outta the picture, bagging up that Phoenix will be a piece of cake!"

She laughed evilly and aimed a punch at Jake's chest. He flew up into the air, dodging it and all she punched was air. Jake flapped his wings real hard, creating a gusty whirlwind, and making it hard for the Huntsgirl to stay balanced.

"Now, how do you plan to get me out of the picture when you can't even stand up straight?" he teased.

Then, without warning, he flew down and landed a hard blow to Huntsgirl's head. Caught off guard, she threw a few weak punches in his direction, but Jake was too fast for her. He dodged her punches, and wrapped his tail arounder her tighter and tighter until she fell down. Then, he untwisted his tail from her legs and flew back in the air, in order to avoid being pulled down by her. Huntsgirl remained on her hands and knees, breathing hard. Thinking he had won, Jake laughed and flew down onto the statue.

"Yeah! That's what happens when you mess with the Am-Drag! You wanted some, and you GOT it! Woo!"

He was so busy celebrating, that he didn't see the Huntsgirl get up and start running at him at full speed, so, the hard kick he recived in the lower stomache sent him flying right of the statue! Huntsgirl laughed, and let her guard down.

"I guess I taught that dragon boy not to mess with me!"

Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice behind her.

"I guess you DID! But, there's one little bitty problem! You forgot that I can fly!"

It was the American Dragon! He gave her a hard kick in the stomache and sent her flying into the Huntsmaster (who had Grandpa caught underneath a net)! Caught by surprise, he lost his footing, and he and Huntsgirl went plummeting into the cold water far below!

Jake laughed and waved.

"Have a nice trip!" he joked, "See ya next fall!"

Then he noticed Grandpa under the net. He flew over, and ripped it off him.

"well done, young dragon." Grandpa said proudly.

"Not young dragon!" Jake bragged and flew around triumphantly, "You can call ME the American Dragon! Yeeahhh!"

Suddenly, he detransformed into his human form!

"Huh?" he cried in shock, then fell out of the sky. "Aww man!"

Instinctively, he grabbed the edge of the statue while he was falling. Grandpa helped him up, and Jake breather a sigh of relief.

"Thanks, Gramps! Phew! That was a close one!"
