Worker72:You did make an excellent point,however,Rose was only exaggerating a bit.And you can't blame her.Hmm...I dunno.Maybe it should have some more loigc.I'm visiting my Mother upin California like 2,500 miles away or something like that next week.So...you win.Also,you did say something about Dragonheart.I saw that when it came out so many years ago,so I guess if I rent it up at my Mom's or something I'll see what content I can add.All I remember is the stars sceene at the end.Sry!

Continueing...
Grasping Jake's claw rather securely at first,she didn't dare let go or even to look down.But after he kept reassuring her that he knew what he was doing and that nothing would happen as long as he held on,she finally relaxed enough to slowly unscrew her face and slowly open her eyes to see what was almost break-taking below.From the tops of buildings,to the fast-moving cars,to the clear,ocean blue sea and back over at the Statue.One look and she was already entranced into another world.
"Wow,"she gasped in a breathy voice,making it apparent that she was starting to get a small glimpse from Jake's POV,"This is spectacular!"
"You bet it is and this is only the beginning too."Jake agreed with a nod,swooping downwards into the direction of the subway.He was going so fast from where they had been,that he told her quickly when she started to look faint,"Hold on!It's not too much further..."
Narrowing his eyes,he tightened his grip on her hand and made a perfect dive and land in front of the now-boarding Subway car.Taking a quick surveve around,he materalized back into his human form just as people were still getting thier tickets.He was about to lead Rose over with him,but with a unsure feeling,Jake turned to her with fated look in his eyes,
"Rose,"he took her hands in his and kept his eyes locked with hers,as he went on firmly,"Do you really want to try and change?To do what's right."
That question just seemed to leap out at her,as if it was the most strongest thing she had ever been asked of.Like when she was a young girl,it wasn't a question if she wanted to be Huntsgirl or not.But now it seemed,looking back on all the things she'd done and all the things she either wanted to or had to of done,this was.She decided,the most important thing she would ever do.To try and give Jake's world a try,to try and see things from a supposed 'good' guys POV.But she remembered,it would determine the outcome of what she would spend the rest of her life.Being bad...or good.
"I really want to try,"She said with her eyes lowered somewhat to the ground,"I-"but Jake lightly touched her chin and pulled her face with only a slight jerk up to his eyes,"I really want to try and see it for myself."
Jake smiled at that,knowing she really meant she was indeed wanting to try his way for once.That's when they heard the last call for the subway and,giving her a hasited look,the two of them raced to the Ticket both and purchased two tickets.To where,Rose wasn't aware of yet.That was she wasn't aware of it until they boarded the sub and she pressed him for it,
"You know,it's not very exciting to have to wait like this,"she told him with a hint of a smile,starting to sound like she always did when she knew Jake before she knew he was a Dragon,"Sure you want to keep it a secret?"
"Dude-uhh,Rose.Believe me,it's just much better as a secret."Jake repiled coolly,resting his shoulder on the sub seat to look sideways as they talked,that's when he put both arms behind his head and simply said,"Well be there sooner then you think,so chill or something...or,"he yawned sleepily,"...Do something."
Rose sighed avidly,although she liked Jake's ususally cool and laid-back disposition,sometimes it agitated her a bit.Being very active and busy out of school and whatnot.But time flew by and before she knew it,the Sub came to a screeching hault.That made Jake arouse from his small sleep and turn to grin at a confused-looking Rose,who was right at that point ready to either explode from boredom or explode altogether.
"This is the end of the line?"Rose instead inquired him,mystifed beyond belief,"Because we've been here for almost twenty-five minutes...so,what's going on?"
"What's going on is..."Jake told her with a daring grin,giving a little nod to the Subdriver,"...Where going to the World's most almost Magic city."
Before Rose could ask him where that could possibley be,the Sub started to move at an alarming rate down the track and into what appeared to be a blue-and-purple swirling portal.At first Rose was feeling uneasy about the situtation,but then a sight like no other made her even more a gape then before,a city 3 times greater then New york appeared outside the window.With many houses made of various things,all of them completely unique,with purple-bricked roads and different creatures Rose had never seen.It was so amazing,she couldn't even hear what Jake was saying.
"OK,AMD.You and you're little girlfriend have exactly one hour in this place and not a minute more...understand?"The Driver instructed Jake sternly as him and Rose exited together,"You know how strict some of those higher-ranking folks would feel if they knew a young Dragon and his little human Girlfriend were having a run of the Magical City."
"Thanks Bob and don't worry we will."Jake called up to him as soon as they were off,waving as the still disapproving driver drove away,"Just don't let Fu Dog or Grandpa on!"
"The Magical City?"Rose asked him with a not too surprised note in her voice,as she surveyed her surroundings with an impressed look.
"Acutally,it's the Magical City of Arowbi."Jake began explaining casually as they started walking up the street together,trying to ignore the wary stares they occasionally got from passerbys not use to humans in thier city,"The one place in the world where all Magical Creatures have found peace and...well,live in peace,"he suddenly turned to some gawking young elfs and fractiously morphed into his Dragon form,"There...see...happy now!I'm just the guy that always saves you being akwardly observed walking down the street.Can't I just-WHOW!"
He was cut short,when a beaming Rose grabbed him by the arm and started pulling him down the street at breakneck speed.That's when the two came upon a place called the "Magical Animal Sacturary" with ateen fawn sitting in the enterance to the silver-ish gates.Seeing the curious look on Rose's face,Jake almost instictively went over and after a few minutes of pursasion.They both found themselfs getting a once-in-a-life-time chance to see some of the rarest wild Magical Creatures ever.From only a few remaining Sea Monster's in the Magic world to unknown species of fairys to creatures never even heard of.
"So what's you're family like?"Rose asked Jake after a while.
Jake frowned slightly,but shrugged.However,seeing as this was an oppurtunity to get deeper into a subject like this.To acutally try and help Rose change her so-called destiney.He began by saying his family;was just like any other family.Busy and sometimes un-in tune parents,an annoying younger siblings,of course his nagging Grandfather and magical-talking Sharpi where exceptions.At first,Rose had thought that it must have been incredibley different when you were a Dragon.But as time went on,she began to see,his family seemed more normal then her own.At least on the Huntsclan-side of the famiy that was.
"...Enough about mine,what about you're fa-"But realizing it may not have been a good time to mention that particular subject he quickly started off on something else,"Uh...nice weather today,huh?"
"It's okay,"Rose turned her blue eyes skyward and out of the small opening on top of the gazebo they were sitting in,as she pressed her back a little more againist the bench they sat on,"I know what you mean,"she turned to look at him and smile a bit crookedly,"It's not all bad though.Not as bad as you might think it is,Jake."
But before Jake could ask her what she meant,he glanced up at a clock that was above Rose's head.Furrowing his brow,he looked down at his own watch and realized with pure horror,that it was rapidly nearing the time that they needed to be back with the Phoenix.Knowing they only had about 12 minutes to get back to the Statue,Jake,remembering a particular shop not to far away.Grabbed Rose by the wrist without warning and before she could say anything,they were off to the shop.
Wow,wonder what'll happen when they get there?Only one way to find out!So stay tuned.ttylz!
