Well, I've gotten one review. Hey, doesn't anybody want to know if Blithe is a guy or girl? I'll reveal what Blithe's human form looks like in Chapter 3. Right now, I'm content with letting you trying to figure out who Blithe is.
Chapter 2: Enter Rachelle Mandoni, Stage Left
"So you're saying that he made duplicates of himself?" Trixie asked Jake. They, along with Spud, were eating lunch and talking about the previous night's happenings. Jake's was always the most interesting, especially today.
"Yeah, it was really weird," Jake said. He stopped talking as a girl came over to their table. Her eyes were locked on Jake.
"Hi," she said. "My name is Rachelle. What are your names?"
"I'm Jake and these are my buds Spud and Trixie," Jake said. Trixie and Spud smiled and waved.
"Do you mind if I sit here?" she asked, her brown eyes glistening. Jake nodded.
"Nope. Go right on ahead," he said. Rachelle sat down and put her brown hair up into a ponytail. She wore a green, off-the-shoulder shirt that read "GO AWAY" in yellow lettering. The rest of her outfit consisted of olive green cargo pants with a flare and gray sneakers, accented with a green and tan purse, dark red lipstick and gray eyeshadow. She took an orange out of her lunchbox and peeled it with ease. She bit into it and sucked it dry in less than a minute.
"So, I'm new here. Is there anything I should know about?" Rachelle asked.
"Stay away from Professor Rotwood," Jake said, and Trixie and Spud laughed. Rachelle nodded.
"Got it. I guess three is a crowd, huh?" she said. "You probably don't want to hang out with the new girl."
"Sure," Jake said. "You can hang with us. As long as you promise to be our friend for life and friend for real."
"Okay," Rachelle said happily. Jake glanced at Trixie, who nodded her head. Jake nodded.
"Hey, Rachelle, do you have any secrets we should know about, cause we know from experience that keeping secrets can hurt a friendship," Jake said, glancing towards Rose. Rachelle shook her head.
"None. How about you three?" she asked, giving Jake a knowing look. Jake swallowed before answering.
"No, not really," he said. The bell rang and the group of four split up for their next classes. Rachelle turned the corner and stood before her locker. Looking around and seeing no one, her arm turned invisible and she put her arm through the door, taking out a red book that read "HISTORY." Her arm turned visible again and she walked to her next class.
Jake looked outside of the classroom to see something fly past. He immediately raised his hand.
"Yes, Mr. Long," the teacher, Miss Wright, acknowledged.
"May I go to the, um, restroom?" he asked. He was excused from the class and he ran into the bathroom. Hardly anyone went to the bathroom during class. "Dragon up!" he called, and he transformed into the American Dragon. He stepped outside to see the gray dragon he had run into earlier fighting Huntsgirl. Jake grabbed Huntsgirl's waist and took her around the corner. He put her down and she glared at him. Then her eyes softened.
"Thanks," she said. "He just...attacked me. Without warning or anything. And he can do all sorts of things that I didn't even know dragons could do." Jake glanced behind him to see the gray dragon coming around the corner. He grabbed her and flew outside and on top of the school. The gray dragon soon followed.
"What does he want from you?" Jake asked. Huntsgirl took out a pendant. It was shaped like a dragon, with sapphire eyes. It was pure gold. The gray dragon appeared and she stuck it in a leather bag. The gray dragon smirked.
"You really think that bag is going to stop me?" it asked. Its arm turned invisible and its hand went through the bag and grabbed the pendant. "Thanks." The dragon flew off and Jake was confused.
"Dragons can't do that. He's not a dragon...or at least not a normal one," Jake said. He took Huntsgirl back inside and left her do change back and go to class. He did the same. He looked at Rachelle, whose eyes were red. She must have gone to the nurse. Then he noticed something glint in the light. "Eye of the dragon," he whispered, and Rachelle put her hand in her pocket, deepening whatever he had seen. Rachelle blinked and her eyes were their normal color, brown.
Oooh! Gotcha! Soo...any ideas? I need feedback on your opinion about Blithe.
