Chapter 5 – Jake Gets Captured
Comments from the author: Well, here's the fifth chapter. I changed the title a Iittle bit. I thought the old title didn't have anything to do withthe plot andsince I got a different idea on how everything will go. Anyway, I'll try and proofread my stories as often and this chapter, hopefully, will be more interesting than the others. Anywho, enjoy this chapter!
It was already seven in the morning and as usual, Jake got ready for school. After the process of preparing and breakfast, he left the house and rode his skateboard to school.
When he got there, he met up with Trixie and Spud. The hallway was still crowded, so that meant that they still had time. Jake got his books out of his locker and then walked with Trixie and Spud to math class… There was no sign of Rose that day.
After school that day, Jake told Trixie and Spud that he has to go to Grandpa's shop for training, not realizing that he said he was free last night.
On his way home, he morphed to dragon form. He thought it might be a timesaver to fly home.
As he was about to take off, the Huntsman shot him in the wing. It made him fall on the sidewalk. Jake frowned as he saw the Huntsman.
"The American Dragon…" He said. "I've been expecting you." He continued. (A/N: I know that the Dark Dragon said this in the episode, Dragon Summit.) "What do you want?" Jake asked. "I have come to tell you that I will make Rose reconsider about you and so can slay you so she can become one with the Huntsclan." He replied.
"Where is she now?" Jake asked. "Oh, she's at home." Huntsmaster said. "I have to find her." Jake said. "But I'll get you there in a matter of minutes." The Huntsmaster said. Like last time, he hit Jake on the head and he blacked out.
The Huntsmaster threw a sphinx hair net on him, which made him morph back to his human form,and then took him back to the Huntslair.
Meanwhile at Grandpa's shop, Grandpa and Fu Dog are waiting for Jake to come to the shop. "Ah, Jake is ten minutes late." Grandpa said, looking at his watch.
"Maybe he got held back." Fu Dog said, shrugging.
Back at the Huntslair, Jake was still unconscious and was now chained while in human form.
Rose suddenly crept to the room where Jake was locked. She gasped. 'Oh no!' She thought. The Huntsman approached her. "Why did you do this, uncle?" She asked, starting to form tears in her eyes.
"It is because it is your destiny as Huntsgirl to slay the American Dragon, friend or not." He said, leaving the room. Jake finally regained consciousness. He groaned. "Ohhhhhh…" He said, rubbing his head.
The first person he spotted was Rose, who was looking at him with tears. "Rose? What are you doing here?" He asked, still feeling woozy. "You're in the Huntslair. My uncle captured you." She said.
Rose released him and said, "Jake, hurry. Before my uncle--" But she was then interrupted by the Huntsman, no other than her uncle.
So, you thought that you could escape from me?" He asked. "Uncle, you don't understand." Rose said, starting sob quietly.
"I do, it's you who doesn't understand." Huntsmaster said. "Now, go and slay the American Dragon or else." He said. "No." She said, refusing.
"I warned you. Now, here is something that I found yesterday." He said. Rose gasped.
