"She is in so much trouble" Jake said. He had been waiting for his daughter for quite sometime but still, no JR.

"Don't be so tough on her, kid" Fu said. He was sitting on the couch with a bowl of chips on his hands.

"Tough? She's more than an hour late!"

"She might have a good reason"

"I'm her dragon master and I have to teach her discipline" Jake countered.

"Yeah, but in case you've forgotten, you're her dad too" Fu replied.

Jake didn't answer.

"You may not see it but you're acting like how you're grandpa used to when you were a kid"

"I- what?"

"He always frets about you. Every single day he talks about you, training, you, the shop, you, dragon council, you, magical creatures and did I mention you? I mean, do you know how boring it gets, 'Fu Dog, Jake this', 'Fu Dog, Jake that'. I mean, come on, can't a dog just-"

"Ok, ok" Jake interrupted. "I get the point" he said. "But I'm just worried, what if the Huntsclan attack while I'm not there and Jade isn't ready to fight them yet? Something bad might take place. I don't want anything to happen to her"

"Look, Jake, take it easy. Jade will be ready when the time is right. Believe in her as your grandpa believed in you"

Jake sighed. "You're right, Fu" he said then smiled. "I am beginning to act like gramps"

Then, a blue pixie flew towards them.

"Letter for Jake Long" he said in his gruff voice. "Sign here"

Jake signed on the paper and took the letter. He opened it to reveal a hologram of two men and a woman.

"Dragon Council" he said.

JR entered the house. She knew she should have gone to the shop but she couldn't, not after what happened.

"Jade, you're home early. I thought you were helping Jake in his shop" Rose, who just entered the living room and spotted her daughter, said. "What's wrong?" she added when she noticed JR's expression.

"I… I just had a fight with Andy" JR said unhappily.

Rose walked closer to JR and led her to sit on the couch. "But if I remember right, you and Andrew are best friends ever since you both were kids. How could you fight? And over what?" Rose asked gently.

"Chris" JR answered.

"Who's Chris?"

JR sighed. "He's a new kid at our school"

"So, why are you guys fighting over him?"

"Andy thinks Chris is bad news. He acts cold around him. But Chris never did anything wrong except to try to be our friend. I don't know what's gotten in to Andy"

Rose thought for awhile. "Jade, have you ever wondered what Andy might feel about you?" she asked.

"Huh? Well, no, I guess. Andy and I are best friends, I've always thought that's how we're gonna be forever"

"Jade, you have to understand, things change and that goes for feelings as well. You can't expect Andy to feel the same way about you as you about him"

"What does that mean? That Andy likes me more than friends?" JR asked, almost unbelievably.

Rose looked into her daughter's eyes. "He loves you"

JR blinked. She didn't know what to say, she didn't know what to think. Her friendship with Andy was ruined because Andy was jealous of… of Chris!

"Jade, why don't we do something for awhile? Just to keep your mind off this" Rose said.

JR sighed. "Ok. What are we going to do?" she asked.

"You're going to need your Huntsgirl uniform"
