Back everyone! Not much to say today... I'd like to thank everyone who voted/guessed on the identity of the Calloway Devil. At the current moment, the 'suspects' are:
The guy that called Jake a commie:1
Levi:1
Victoria:1
Ok, you will find out a little more about the first guy later on. Meanwhile, we will also get a little closer to finding out the C Devil's identity.
Just to tell you, although this fic will retain its humor, it will also begin to get a little more serious as we near the end of it. Reviewers!
Cybertoy00: Maybe you're right... maybe you're not. I ain't telling yet, obviously!
Lavenderpaw: Yes, I am crazy! But y'all knew that. Oh, and sorry, but I'm dumb like this, so what does editive mean? Just wonderin'. Later/
TerraNova: Glad you liked the MJ thing. Sorry the update took so long.
CelloSolo2007: You're saying the jokes are too old for you? Dude, I think you're older than me! But whatever. The Geico thing's pretty good... just realized there's nothing about Geico in here. Must...save...on...car...insurance.
Haha, weird. The last time I updated this, you still hadn't put up a fic. Now... well, look at all of 'em:D Later.
KrazieShadowNinja: I gave you the address, hope it works. Oh, and sorry, but because the update took so long, I already ate all the candy. I hope you understand.
DanMat6288: Yeah, I think you are Lilo and Stitch obsessive. But that's cool, 'cause I'm ADJL obsessive. Did you guess right? We'll find out... later.
Ananomous: Well, I'm sorry that you feel that way. Unfortunately, though, this fic will not be taken off the site as you have absolutely no power in the world to do so. In fact, the only way for you to keep yourself from seeing it is to not read it! And you're calling a whole lot of people dumb. Maybe you were having a bad day or something... I'll admit, I do many a day, but still that was no reason for you to call many people dumb and to call this fic a disgrace and retarded. Of course, we all have our opinions, and that is yours, but I'd rather that you keep things such as that to yourself. If you would happen to be the kind of person that only likes fics that might actually happen in an episode, know this: I am fully aware that this storyline would never be an episode. If Disney put some of this stuff on TV, think about how much trouble they'd probably get in! And yes, I do think this kind of thing is funny. But of course, I also have a very, very warped sense of humor. So that explains that. Also... I am not naturally a funny person. So it's kinda hard to write all this stuff. So... once again, I'm sorry that you feel this fic is really that bad. But this fic is not going anywhere. So if I were you, I'd learn to deal with it.
Here we go!
Dragon in Paradise: An Attack and A Theory?
YFWE
By the Way... I Still Don't Sell Hot Fries
"It's showtime", Rose said aloud, and revealed her black Huntsclan uniform underneath her clothes. Once she was in full Huntsclan attire, she burst open the door to the restaurant and ran inside.
Inside, it was pandemonium. People were trying to escape, but the devil creature was not letting them. Every once in a while, someone was able to sneak past and out the broken window it had come through. But for the most part, that didn't work.
Rose saw the Calloway Devil standing in the middle of the room, eyeing all of the terrified occupants of the room. She knew that she was going to have to stop it- and quick. As she was staring at the creature, she never saw Jake standing with his Grandpa and Fu Dog on the far side of the room.
"Yo, Gramps, we gotta do somethin'! I'm gonna go try an'..."
"Jake, stop!", Grandpa said, "Be careful! Be sure that you are not seen when you become a dragon. As said before, some of the people here are not used to seeing magical creatures. However...", he glanced over at the devil, "they're seeing this right now, so I guess it would not matter much anyway."
Rose/Huntsgirl thought of what to do next. The previous time she had squared off with it, she'd failed to capture it with the Huntsclan's newest technological advance, the Pandora's Box, because apparently the Calloway Devil was not a magical creature. What it was, who knew? But what she did know...
Last time, the American Dragon was there. And got in her way, even though they ended up defeating it. But this time, there was no dragon in sight.
Good. Whatever this thing was, it was about time that it stopped terrorizing all the residents.
"Dragon up!", Jake whispered quietly behind a table, and soon soared out from behind it and readied himself for a fight. He scanned the room... and near the door, there was someone standing there.
Someone that wasn't cowering with fear around the edge of the restaurant. And it definitely wasn't Andy Capp, who had somehow escaped and was running around outside in the middle of the street, holding up traffic (which happened to be one car) and holding up a sign that read "They are among us", with a side note "I don't make hot fries." No, it wasn't him.
It was Huntsgirl.
Their eyes met...
(End)
I AM Your Lawyer!
"Who are you?", asked Spud down in that hole as he stared up at the man, "And what have you done with my watch? Among other things..."
The man pushed his greasy black hair out from in front of his eyes, "Of course. I...", his hair fell back in front of his eyes, "Damn", he set it back again, "As I was saying, I am Eric Webster. And it puts the lotion on." He lowered a basket of some kind of lotion down in the hole to Spud.
"What's it?"
"You have no idea what kind of... uh..", he took out a folded piece of paper in his pocket, "Oh yeah. You have no idea what kind of hell I can bring you."
"Um... do you mean me?", asked Spud.
"No, I mean Justin Timberlake, the guy beside you."
Spud looked over, and there sat Justin Timberlake in a corner, "Um... dude, I dunno who you are, but all I know is that I didn't know it was crack! Now will you please let me outta here? Where's my lawyer?"
"I am your lawyer, bitch!", Eric yelled.
"So THAT'S why you hadn't been returning any of my calls!"
"Whatever", Eric turned back to Spud, "I meant you. Now put it on."
"On what?"
"Your hair of course!"
"Okay, don't mean to stop ya", Spud said, "But I've noticed that you're basically ripping off the movie "Silence of the Lambs", which just so happens to be my favorite movie ever as well as the scariest. Plus, Anthony Hopkins is distantly related to me. Think our cousins were part of the Black Plague together. Anyway...", Spud continued, "In that movie, the man forced that woman to put the lotion on her skin..."
"Yeah, I know. This way, I can avoid some of the movie's copyright laws."
"Makes sense. That reminds me of the time I remade the "Willy Wonka" movie without the Oompa Loompas being midgets and plus, Charlie was not poor; he was a rich snob.
FLASHBACK, Family Guy-esque
"Charlie, you've won!", Wonka exclaimed, "You've single handedly defeated all of the kids!"
"Yeah, yeah. So what do I get?"
"You get the factory!"
"What? All that work and all I get is this hellhole of a place? Tsch. See ya later. Grandpa! It is 2 p.m.! Bring me my caviar!"
END FLASHBACK
"And second, isn't there supposed to be a dog at the edge of the hole that we're supposed to be calling for to get help?"
"I had one!", Eric growled, "But HE ate it!", referring to Justin Timberlake.
"Well, what was I supposed to eat? You've kept me down here for three days now, and that dog was dumb enough to jump into the hole when I told it to!"
"So why do you need my hair?", Spud asked, ignoring what had just been said.
"Because I'm making a hat of hair from all kinds of people that are dumb enough to follow me home", replied Eric.
"I didn't know it was crack!", Justin Timberlake yelled.
"Unfortunately, Justin had already shaved his head for some reason, so I couldn't get any from him. So you'll do, Spud. Now hurry it up and maybe I'll let you out."
"Oh no!", exclaimed Spud.
"Oh yes", Eric laughed.
"Oh yeah!", the Kool-Aid guy called from the kitchen.
Spud was about to put the lotion, that suppposedly made hair fall out,t on his hair (which wouldn't actually be that much of a problem, as Spud later discovered) when a crash was heard from the front room of the house. "Dammit, I told Mr. Kool Aid to stay in the fridge! Be right back!", sighed Eric.
But as fast as you could say, "The Kool Aid guy isn't real", an "Ow!", was heard from the room Eric had just entered. And then, appearing over the hole, there was...
"Trixie!", Spud exclaimed, "Am I glad to see you!"
Trixie didn't seem to be amused, "Sorry I sold you to this guy, Spud. Well, technically, I just gave you to him, but... anyway, it's time to get you out!"
"And how are you gonna do that? I don't even remember how I got down here in the first place!"
"Um... good question. Just a sec." Trixie reached into her backpack and pulled out a decently large book that Spud had seen before.
"Magical Spells for Dummies? Trixie, how's that gonna work?"
"Hey, it worked earlier! Well... I'll tell you about that later. Anyway...", she flipped through the book, until she reached the page, "Here it is. Uh... how do I say this... Jack Nicholson?"
Spud felt himself being lifted up off the ground, and soon enough he was out of the hole. "Jack Nicholson?"
"Um... hey, it worked, didn't it? Now let's go."
"Hey! Aren't you gonna let me out?", Justin Timberlake called from down in the hole.
"Uh... actually, I think I'm doing the world a favor by leaving you down there", Trixie said.
"Okay. But before you leave, could you tell Christina Ricci something for me? It's very important."
"Yes?"
"Tell her... that AOL is protecting her against identity theft."
(End)
Repayment?
Rose couldn't believe it. The dragon was here again. It seemed as if each time she went on a Huntsclan mission, the American Dragon was always there.
Jake felt the exact same way, only vice versa.
They both were about to say something to each other, when...
"ROAR!", the Calloway Devil roared, causing all of the other partygoers to cower back in fear.
"Hey! Why don'tcha pick on someone your own size?", Jake yelled.
"Newsflash, dragon boy. That'd be you."
"Damn", sighed Jake, "Okay then. Bring it on, C Devil."
As if to say "With pleasure", the devil creature lunged at Jake.
And as if to say "Nice try", Jake stepped out of the way and watched it smack into a wall.
It laid there for a moment, and Jake thought he had it beat, so he yelled out, "Oh yeah! No one challenges the Am Drag an' gets away with it, ya heard!"
In his strange-yet-almost-fitting victory dance, Jake didn't see it get back up and stare at him with a burning desire to absolutely maul him.
And that's likely what it would've done, had it not been for Huntsgirl.
"Gaaahhh!", the devil screeched again, and began its sprint toward the still oblivious Jake.
Jake, upon hearing this, whipped around, and his eyes widened. It was so close... and then...
"Yah!", into the picture came (or, more or less, flew) Huntsgirl. She slammed herself into the Calloway Devil, sending it sprawling once again.
But it didn't seem to have as much of an attachment to the ground, as it got back up quickly.
This time, though, there stood two adversaries in its way. A ninja... and a dragon. As if it remembered the last time it had squared off with the two, it quickly reversed direction, and it teleported out of the building.
New score: Calloway Devil- 0, New York Tourists-2.
Jake turned to Huntsgirl, "Guess you repayed the favor, eh?"
"What're you talking about?"
"Well... the last time it was us against it, I saved you. This time, you saved me."
"Dragon, I did not save you. I would rather you be dead. But my first priority was saving these people."
"As was mine", sneered Jake.
"Well then... you see, there is no 'repaying the favor'. It's getting this... thing... off the streets and into some lab back in the States. Meanwhile... it looks as if our little quarrel may have to wait just a tad longer. Later, dragon boy." And out the door she went.
Jake sighed. No matter what way she put it, it still seemed to him that she just saved his life. But all this was forgotten for the time being when all of the guests at the party began cheering for him. Smiling in recognition, Jake waved to the crowd and went over to Grandpa. "Very good, young dragon."
"Yeah. Even though Huntsgirl basically saved your ass back there", Fu laughed.
"Jake!", someone called from behind him. It was Esix Francis, "Great job out there. I can tell you've been trained well! Now could you guys come with me for a bit?", he motioned to the back lounge they'd found Fu in the previous time they'd come.
Obeying, the three of them walked back there, where Grandpa and Esix began talking about this devil and what should be done about it.
(End)
A Revelation?
They were in there for about a half an hour when the woman that had been behind the bar the last time they'd been there came in. "Mr. Francis", she said, "Mind if I turn on Channel 7? Something's going on."
"Yes, sure, Mallory. Just be sure it isn't too loud."
"But you may wanna hear it." She turned it on.
There was a shot of a report, with the restaurant in the background. There were a few people standing around, but not many.
"So... what did happen tonight at the No Worries' Restaurant and Lounge?", the reporter, a middle-aged man, stared into the camera, "Well, Esix Francis, the owner, has been unavailable for comment, but we have been able to reach some of the party guests, including one of the DJ's." He turned to Andy Capp, "We have Andy Capp here. Andy, can you tell us what happened?"
"Yeah", Andy said, "In short, a huge devil creature came through the window and tried attacking all of us! I was able to escape, and I think everyone else was, too."
"Okay, then. One more question, Andy- any word on when the new hot fries flavor will be coming out?"
"I hate you people."
"Ooh, tough words", he turned back toward the camera, "So, it looks like another Calloway Devil spotting tonight. Where will it strike next? Well, now we go to Vicki Johnson, who is over by the beach. Vicki?"
"Thanks, Ron. Well, it appears that the No Worries' Restaurant and Lounge was not the only place that fell victim to the Devil tonight." She turned to look behind her, and there was Levi Adams's bar. And it was engulfed in flames.
"Officials say that the bar was attacked before the second attack. And while we still do not know much about what happened, we have this video taken at the scene."
And onto the screen came the video. At this point, the bar was already in flames. But in the smoke... there were two silhouettes. One... was the Calloway Devil, for sure. But the other... because of the smoke, they weren't able to get the best view of it. But it appeared to be... a dragon. Yeah, it looked a lot like a dragon. Were the two fighting? Or were they setting fire to the bar?
The video stopped and Vicki turned back to the camera, "Does the Calloway Devil have a new partner in crime? We have Levi Adams, the owner of the bar, with us now. Levi, do you know what happened?"
On came Levi, Victoria's boss. He looked a little shaken, as anyone would be if something they owned was burning down, "I was meeting one of my workers to tell them that I would be out of town tomorrow, and I was on my way back here when I saw all of the smoke. And when I got here... well, I saw what everyone's seeing now."
"I wish I knew why it's doing this. To me? What have I done wrong? That's all I have to say."
Esix switched off the TV.
"So... Levi's bar was attacked as well. Lao, sorry, but I need to begin some research here. I want to figure out who's behind all this once and for all. Maybe I will see you tomorrow? Here at noon?"
"That is fine. Come, Fu and Jake", Grandpa said, and they walked out of the restaurant.
"Well, Jake, I wish I knew who was behind this. I hope Esix will know by tomorrow."
"Yeah...", Jake said, but he couldn't shake something out of his mind.
Victoria... Levi had visited her at the restaurant to tell her to come in on Wednesday. She had stared hatefully at him as he walked out. And then she had went after him. And now... Levi's bar had burnt down. And the restaurant had been attacked.
He didn't want to think it, but...
"Who was that dragon-like thing at the bar?"
And more importantly...
"...Could Victoria... be the Calloway Devil?"
END CHAPTER
Wow, I finally finished the new chapter. Hope everyone liked it! So... is Victoria the Calloway Devil? It'd make sense, but... could it really be true?
Well, voice your opinion. Is it Victoria? Or is it someone else?
We're getting down to the wire now, folks. Only a few more chapters to go. What'll happen next? Stay tuned!
