Chapter Five
"Vi, do ya have training again today?" Tria asked.
"Sorry, Tria, but yeah, I do," Violet said, "It's everyday, remember?"
"Yeah, I just miss hangin' out," Tria said.
"Me too, sometimes I-" Violet stopped as she felt a heavy hand grip her shoulder.
"Who was that guy you ate lunch with today?"
Violet gulped. She turned around to face Robert Morton, "Why do you care?" She asked, trying to sound relaxed.
"I thought you liked me," Robert said.
Anger gripped her as he said those words, "Liked you? What gave you that idea?" she asked, "I never said I liked you!"
"But... but what about the violets? I gave ya flowers a-and you took 'em," he said.
"Only coz you shoved them into my hands." Violet snapped.
"Fine! If you wanna be such a brat, we are through!" Robert yelled and walked away.
"Well, good riddance!" Violet yelled back. She turned around, shaking with anger, "I can not believe him! He's been doin' that all year! Finally! I'll be free! No more Morton the moron!"
"Vi, calm down," Tria put a hand on her friend's shoulder, "Come on, smile," she said, "You're free to concentrate on a guy that you do like,"
Violet took a deep breath and let it out slowly, "Yeah, you're right,"
"Violet Long, you are late!" Jake said, crossing his arms.
"Uh… yeah… about that…" Violet looked at the floor, ashamed.
"What happened?" Jake asked.
"Uh… I uh… had a… a… an argument with Robert Morton," Violet said.
"Oh… so, did ya finally get him of your back?" Jake asked.
"Yes, dad, I finally got him off my back, he'll leave me alone at last!" Violet said happily.
"That's good to hear," Jake said, "Now, a bit of fire breath training."
"Where?" Farrell asked worriedly.
"Up on the rooftop, of course," Jake said, "I wouldn't wanna burn down G's ol' shop,"
"Aim, Violet. Focus on the target." Jake instructed, "Now fire!"
Violet aimed and breathed out fire. It hit the center of the target "Bull's eye!" she said, "Oh, yeah! Am-dragon's here and gonna burn your rear!"
"Nice one, Vi!" Farrell clapped.
Jake smiled, remembering how he used to dance around just as happily when he was younger. "Good work! Now do a few more, then you can practice ring of fire,"
Violet hit the other targets perfectly. "Oh yeah! I did it!"
"Now, let's do the ring o' fire," Jake said, "Remember, it has to be a circle."
"Okay, got it," Violet closed her eyes and concentrated, she opened her eyes and inhaled, 'Circle, circle, it has to be a circle,' she thought. She breathed out a circle of flames.
"You did it!" Jake said happily, "I'm so proud of you!" he hugged his daughter.
"Thanks dad!" Violet hugged him back.
"She's improving," the dark dragon's son remarked, "If I don't catch her soon, she'll be extremely hard to capture,"
"But I have to get her away from her father, though," he said, "But how?"
