aacid- I dunno, he's with a gun association, surly they would have a spare gun to give him.
Writing Cat-XD Thanks for the review (Oh and read dragons and glory) :D
LP- Less language? Alright, and I will try to keep that in mind about the other thing you said.
Chapter 8- Betrayal
The dark dragon breathed in the sharp smell of destruction. It smelled much like smoke. He gave a sigh of content, soon the plan would all prove a success, the humans in New York were at civil war, and it would only be a matter of time before it would spread throughout the U.S and other countries. He breathed heavily once again "I love the smell of America burning" he laughed.
"Sir, these creatures refuse to join our cause" another dragon said as he emerged from the smoke. He was holding a chain, which was wrapped tight around several creatures from the magical community.
"I hardly see how this is my problem" He responded sharply.
"Um well, they are against you sir" the dragon replied.
"Well you know the consequences of that, you don't need to see me about it."
"Yes I do, cause how else could the author babble on about nothing to reach the 2000 word minimum per chapter he set himself for this story?"
"What on earth are you talking about?"
"Sorry, what I meant to say was I will terminate them immediately."
"Good"
The dragon prepared himself for the mauling. "Hah, you thought you were so smart doing your own thing, but it looks like you get owned in the end."
"Yo meanie, not so fast" came a voice from in the darkness.
"That voice" called the Dark Dragon, "its him, Jake. Well its time we ended this for once and for al.l"
He held the orb up and it shone, clearing the area around them from all the smoke and haze, revealing the American Dragon and his gang.
"We here to stop you for once and for all" Lao Shi commented. "We shall take the orb."
"Ahh, so you can sense the orb after all old man? Id like to see you try take it" laughed the dark Dragon. With that he let out a loud roar which made Jake and the rest cover their ears and squint their eyes.
"Damn That was loud" Jake complained. "Don't do that again."
"I have no need to" The dark Dragon replied smugly, as from out of the surrounding ruins, dark creatures began to pop up.
"This ends here for all of you" He laughed.
Rose could contain herself no longer. "I will get you for this" she yelled, charging straight at the dark dragon. Jake didn't want to think much about it, but it seemed to be some sort of hatred that ran through her blood. He began to wonder if she was completely cured of her desire to hunt dragons, or if the death of the hunts master had re awoken her lust to slay them.
The dark dragon effortlessly knocked her out of the way. "You know you can't kill me fool" he laughed, why don't you try as a team?
Jake jumped and landed beside Rose. "If it's a team you want to face, it's a team you will get" yelled Jake. The look on his face was one of determination, as if he knew he couldn't lose.
"Fine, destroy them" The dark dragon ordered his minions.
"Not so fast" Wilhelm called through a megaphone. I got you locked on with the hellfire laser guided missiles. At any moment, I could blow you apart.
The dark dragon held out his palm as if ordering the minions to halt their attack.
"Could it be, the man who's chopper I trashed back when I was able to obtain the orb? My my looks like your back for another beating."
"Talk like that will get you killed my friend."
"Your not fooling anyone, we all know what you're here for, well at least I do, you may fool them, but then again, that's not overly difficult."
"What do you mean?"
"You can't lie to me, I know you, Wilhelm. I recognise you. Would it surprise you if I said I know you are a magical being?"
"Nothing you say will surprise me anymore" Wilhelm replied in defiance.
"That's right, I know what you are and I have been looking for you for a very long time."
"Enough" Wilhelm replied you will die now.
What he didn't realise was that the talk was used as an opportunity for one of the dark dragons flying minions to get up to his blind spot. Just as he pulled the trigger, the minion barged the side of the chopper, spinning the chopper 90 degrees, making the hellfire rocket fire into the row of houses.
"Damn" shouted Wilhelm as he continued spinning.
"Attack now" ordered the dark dragon.
With that his minions leapt upon the ready crew.
"Hmmm, Lets see, who shall I destroy myself" Wondered the dark Dragon. Then he spotted Lao Shi. 'I think its about time the old man was put in his permanent retirement home."
He began to charge at Lao Shi, but something caught his eye that made him change his mind. Lao Shi saw him coming and prepared for battle, but was astounded when the dark dragon suddenly changed direction, and grabbed Haley, who was next to him, looking a little clueless and scared.
"You move and she gets it"
Lao Shi stopped. "This is fun, I could do this one by one." He then called over some free minions.
"He is all yours guys." He laughed. "My threat still remains, you move of your own accord, she dies."
Lao Shi said nothing but stood there glaring at the Dark dragon. The dragon that was originally with the dark dragon, came up, giving Lao Shi a tremendous blow in the face, which sent him crashing into the ground. Willhelm was busy trying to gain control of his chopper, which was being battered around, and Jake and Rose were busy fighting other creatures together. The dragon then began kicking Lao Shi, whilst he was on the ground, each blow harder and more severe then the last.
"He he, this is fun to watch" The dark Dragon smiled, as more and more of his minions seemed to come out of nowhere, to lay a blow upon this defenceless dragon.
"Grandpa Nooo!" Haley yelled out, which got Jakes attention. He turned to where Haley was looking and saw what was going on.
"You go over there, or over here, she dies" The Dark dragon snarled. " You will have your chance to be beaten up, once I kill the old man."
The dragon and other minions continued their coward attack on the already down Lao Shi.
Haley began crying.
"Shut up" the Dark Dragon yelled and jarred her really hard. "I am yet to show you the meaning of pain."
"Gramps!" Cried Haley again. Then she saw the orb. Something about it seemed to attract her. She felt like she wanted to touch it, hold it. She felt like something good would happen if she did she reached out. And laid her dragon hand upon the Glass orb. She felt a power pulse through her that she had never felt before. An anger suddenly built up inside her.
"Leave My Grandpa ALONE" she yelled and jarred herself out of his grasp.
"What the?" he said just in time for her to barge him and send him flying into a nearby pile of rubble. She landed on the ground panting.
This was the chance that Jake had wanted, he made his way with great haste over to where his grandfather was, biting the other dragon hard in the neck.
"Arghhh" He yelled as he tried to shake Jake off.
Then a loud rip was heard as his throat was severed, and he fell lifeless down on the ground. After witnessing the events with the dark dragon, and Jake, the other minions began to back off. Then they ran hiding back in the rubble.
"Gramps, what have they done to you?" Asked Jake.
"Im fine" responded Lao Shi as he tried to get up, but then coughed and fell back down. He looked to be in the same state as he was when Wilhelm's men had finished beating him.
"Im still not finished yet, dragons" growled the dark dragon reemerging from the rubble.
"Gramps, you stay here" said Jake.
"When I count to 3, we attack. Ready?"
"Wait" said Rose, "do we attack on 3, or 3 then attack?"
"Attack simultaneously on 3" Jake replied.
The dark dragon growled.
"One." Jake, Rose and Haley took a step towards him, Wilhelm aimed. He was out of Hellfires so he had to use the smaller rockets.
"Two" The dark dragon looked around him. He was unsure whether to stand or flee.
"Take your worst shot at me, You will never win" he said lowly.
"Three" Jake Yelled as he and rose began charging towards the dark Dragon. Wilhelm fired. The dark dragon jumped to avoid the explosion, but a little too late. Before he could recover from the explosion, Jake and Haley tackled him in midair, driving him right into the ground. Then Rose came in, with her hunt staff blasted him several times. The dark dragon was motionless. Jake walked over and pulled the orb from his hand.
"I… I think we have done it" Said Jake then he let out a grin.
"Yo Nobody messes with da Amdrag ya hear?" he bragged. By this time Lao Shi had managed to pull himself up off the ground, but his movement was still very lanky.
"Well done Jake" he said. The orb is now safe. Let us get it to a safe place, so we can end this.
So the three of them took off, with the orb. The dark dragon stirred, then looked up. "I… Im not finished yet" he groaned, puling himself up from the ground and taking off after them.
He made a tackle for Jake, but Wilhelm in the chopper saw his attempt and fired his rocket which hit the dark dragon in a direct hit. Jake and the crew turned around at the sound of the explosion, just in time to see the Dark Dragon fall spinning down into the streets.
That was a close one, Lao Shi said. "Jake, you and Wilhelm go get the orb to safety as fast as you possibly can, on Draco island. Haley, Rose and I shall go down to make sure the dark dragon is finished.
"You got it" Jake replied, then transferred Rose over to Lao Shi's back. They then dove into the streets to find the body of the dark dragon.
"Here, store the orb in the chopper so you don't have to carry it" Wilhelm said.
"Good Idea, that way I don't have to carry it if I'm attacked." Replied Jake, Wilhelm Opened the door allowing Jake to give him the orb. Wilhelm put it behind him, then the 2 headed for Draco island.
After not long, Wilhelm began to fall a little behind, Jake assumed that the chopper was just a little slow after the last battle, so he kept up the pace.
Wilhelm looked at the orb behind him. "Ha ha ha, fools" he said to himself. He picked up the orb.
"Like taking candy from a baby."
He watched the American dragon in front of him, then a smile crossed his face.
"Ich werde Sie in Heisten sehen! American Dragon" He laughed and lined him up in his sites. Then he pulled the fire trigger. Jake looked behind just in time to be hit by the rocket. Then Wilhelm switched to the chain gun, and began firing it at the American dragon, just to make sure he was down. Jake plummeted down into the streets below.
"Thanks for the orb" He smirked, then changed direction.
Meanwhile Lao Shi, Rose and Haley were searching for the body of the Dark Dragon. They searched, the building which they knew he fell in, but couldn't find his body. The Dark Dragon seemed to have disappeared…. or escaped.
David Long looked into his wifes eyes. She was still alive.
"Oh My god honey" He cried. "No."
She coughed a couple of times as if trying to tell him something, then fell unconscious.
"That's it" he said, "Im getting you out of New York if it kills me. Its time to leave all this War BS, and Escape from New York"…
End chapter.
