The Hunted
As
the sun began to descent from the sky, Lisa, Jake, his grandfather,
and Fu Dog were out looking for the Huntsgirl. As Lisa turned to
glance at Jake she found a look of determination on his face. She
knew in her heart that Jake loved this girl more than anything and he
wasn't about to let anything in his way. Night slowly settled in when
Jake decided to change his form. Lisa changed into a slightly large
wolf. Jake was her friend and she had to make sure that he wouldn't
get hurt or caught. Jake took to the air and flew ahead. Lisa knew
that it would be several minutes before she caught up to him
especially since Jake's grandfather and Fu Dog were with her. When
she spotted him she increased her speed and noticed that something
was happening. He was fighting with the Huntsgirl! By the time they
all caught up to Jake, it was too late. The Huntsgirl caught him and
quickly disappeared in the shadows. They all looked helpless, but
Lisa knew what to do. They had to save him but she needed help.
Lisa
ran quickly back through the woods in her wolf form. As she neared
Jake's home, she transformed back into a human. She got a few things
that would be vital in saving Jake. Then she called Jake's friends.
She knew that they would help her. They all banded together and took
off to save Jake. As they got to the Huntsgirl's lair, they saw Jake
tied up. Lisa decided to go first. If the girl caught her too at
least Jake's friends could rescue him. Jake was about to confess his
profound love to Rose when Lisa jumped out. Jake jerked his head
toward the figure and smiled at her. "Lisa you came." Lisa
smiled and winked her eye. "Of course and I'm not alone."
They all came out and had their weapons pointed at Rose. And so the
battle was about to begin.
"LET JAKE GO NOW!" Lisa
said in a thundering voice but before Lisa could take two steps
toward Rose all of Jake's friends were caught. What sort of person
was this girl. Lisa turned around with her eyes wide as two saucers.
But Lisa underestimated them because one of Jake's friends was a fish
who simply slipped away from the enemies and another was a big girl
and I mean a big girl who just sat on them. Lisa went back and
started to fight her enemies to save Jake. As she fought them, she
forgot all about Jake. The Huntsgirl smiled and turned back to Jake.
She took a very sharp tool to finish him out when Jake shouted
towards her, "Rose, no!" She stopped and looked with
curious eyes. "W-W-What did you just say?" The voice was so
familiar, but she couldn't place it and how did this dragon know her
name? Jake looked up at her with sadness in his eyes as well as his
heart. "Before you kill me, I want you to see who I really am."
Jake transformed back into a human and continued to look at her with
hope that she would spare his life. Rose gasped and dropped the
weapon she was holding. The American Dragon is really Jake! She was
about to kill him! He showed her love and friendship and she was
going to kill him! She set him free and disappeared before Jake could
say anything to her. "Rose! Wait!" He looked down in
sadness because he had probably lost her forever.
Lisa and his
friends had fought back and made their enemies run in fear. They ran
up to Jake and congratulated him on getting rid of that horrible
girl. But Lisa knew that Jake was hurting on the inside. She could
tell it from the look in his eyes. She slipped away from his group of
friends and headed back to woods.
Lisa trotted around as a wolf as
sun very slowly started to rise. She sniffed the ground and finally
caught Rose's scent. She slowly walked up to her and found her
crying. She shifted back into her human form, cautiously walked up to
her, and quietly spoke. "Rose?" She turned from Lisa and
continued crying. "Go away! Please...leave me alone." Lisa
sighed and sat down next to her. "You think Jake hates you,
don't you?" Rose lifted her head and turned toward Lisa. "Who
are you and how do you know about Jake...the dragon?" Lisa
smiled and looked at her. "Because I'm his friend and I know for
a fact that Jake likes...no, loves you. I mean really loves you."
Rose took out her weapon and backed away from Lisa. "You're
lying! I almost killed him!" Lisa shook her head and felt no
fear from Rose. "That doesn't matter to him. He loves you
anyway." Meanwhile, Jake had followed Lisa and found her and
Rose together. His heart stopped as he neared them. Rose's hand began
to shake as she held her weapon. She dropped it on the ground and
burst into tears. "I love Jake with all of my heart but after
what I've done I know that he hates me." Lisa walked up to her
and placed her hand on her shoulder. "There. There. I know for a
fact that Jake doesn't hate you. In fact, he's probably feeling more
pain than you're feeling right now." A few tears streamed down
her cheeks as she looked at Lisa. "I wish I could tell him how
sorry I am." Lisa smiled and stepped aside. " I'm sure he
will understand. Why don't you tell him?" Rose looked at Lisa
with a puzzled face as she watched her leave. Then she felt a pair of
arms wrap around her. She began to struggle when she heard the most
heavenly voice say her name. "Rose." She turned around and
saw Jake. She wrapped her arms him and quietly sobbed. She looked at
him tears in her eyes as she tried to apologize. "J-Jake...I-I
am..." He placed his finger on her lips as he warmly smiled at
her. "Shhh. It's okay, Rose." Jake took his finger away
from her lips and gently kissed her. Rose gently sighed, closed her
eyes, and returned the kiss just as the rays of the golden sun hit
the two lovers. They were so into each other that nothing else
mattered and they really didn't care. They had each other and that
was all the wanted and needed.
