Chapter 2: Confessions and an extra crispy Puck

When you're a Grimm and you live in Ferryport Landing, you can often find yourself in situations like this:

"Run!" Sabrina screamed.

"You don't have to tell me twice, Grimm." Puck yelled as he took off in the air.

"Red! Mom! Can you keep up?" Henry asked.

"Um… not so much," Red yelled behind them as Granny tried to keep up with her young family. Uncle Jake hoisted the old woman on his back and Daphne lifted Red.

Sabrina looked behind her. The monster was catching up fast! She could feel the heat of it's breath on her neck.

"I'm sorry for getting you into this," Mr. Canis apologized.

"That's alright old friend," Granny Relda assured him.

So, as the family ran with all their might, Sabrina recalled why they were in this predicament.

Flashback

"Puck, give me the remote!" Sabrina screamed over the blaring television.

"No way, Grimm. This is the coolest thing I've ever seen! It's an all day special too!"

"Can't you see it's scaring Red! I mean this is rated R!"

Sabrina struggled to get control over the remote as Puck laughed at the all day marathon of the SAW movies. Sabrina could barely stand all of the blood and guts in the movie. It reminded her too much of the war against the Scarlet Hand.

When Granny came into the room, she saw Sabrina jumping the air-born Puck to the ground. Red had given up and left for her room, and Daphne watched the two fight with as she ate a bowl of popcorn.

"Lieblings, what are you doing!" Granny Relda exclaimed.

"Well, Sabrina had Puck pin down but then he got loose and flew into the air. Then, Sabrina tackled him." Daphne explained.

"Why are they fighting? Granny asked.

'Oh, Puck wouldn't change the channel to something more appropriate for Red but, then Red left."

Sabrina stopped, "Red left?" she asked.

"Yep"

"You didn't think to tell me that before I tackled him?"

"Nope, you guys are better than cable!" Daphne said while smiling.

Puck and Sabrina glared at the teen eating popcorn. Unfortunately, Daphne couldn't feel their evil aura and kept munching.

"It doesn't matter anyways, Lieblings," Granny said, "I got a Call from Mr. Canis. He's asked for our help with something."

The former Big Bad Wolf still lived in their house but, he had changed a lot too. Mr. Canis had been rewarded greatly for his victories in the war. The newly reappointed Mayor Charming had asked Mr. Canis to be the new sheriff. Also, to stop Mr. Canis' ageing, Frau Pfeferkuchenhaus' vial of water from the fountain of youth was given to him. Also, Baba Yaga gave him a potion to give him back his youthful strength.

Sabrina, Daphne, Puck, and Red went with Sabrina in her car, and the other family members went in the family car. Sabrina missed her car. It had been a gift for her seventeenth birthday. However, nobody really used cars in New York so; she had left it at the house while she was at college. It was good to be driving again. Unfortunately, this meant that Puck could prank her by doing something to her car. Sabrina couldn't count how many times she woke up to slashed tires or her car egged.

The family stopped at the town park. Mr. Canis was waiting by a squad car. He wasn't like their previous sheriff at all. Mr. Canis still wore a simple suit to work every day in stead of the police uniform. He reminded Sabrina more of a detective from Law and Order than a small town sheriff.

Mr. Canis explained that the park had been experiencing forest fires. His deputy, a.k.a. Papa Bear, confirmed that he smelled a dragon in the forest of the park.

"A Dragon?"

"I Thought they all were killed by the army," Sabrina said.

"Well apparently we missed some," said Mr. Canis.

Uncle Jake fished through his coat. "I have just the answer," he said, "I won it from Jeffery Anderson in a poker game," He finally produced a small necklace with a yellow stone.

"What's that," Daphne said mesmerized by the new magic item.

"A stoning stone. It…well…turns things to stone," Uncle Jake said.

"Jacob, back up. It been a while since dragons sided with the Scarlet Hand. Let's try communication first." Granny said.

Uncle Jake grumbled. He still hadn't quite forgiven the dragon that killed Briar Rose. They went into the deep forest until coming to a large cave. Smoke surrounded the area, reminding Sabrina of the time she witnessed a building burning down in New York.

"Heeeeeeeeew! That's some morning breath!" Puck bellowed into the cave.

"Hmmm... fairy meat. It's been a long time since I had that for a meal," a creaky voice came from the cave.

"Excuse me," Granny said, "I'm Relda Grimm. I was called here with my family because of recent forest fires. Was that you?"

"Yes, that was I" The dragon admitted, "I did not start them on purpose, though. A dragon takes care of his home. Not destroys it,"

Sabrina was surprised. This dragon seemed reasonable and not as violent. It seemed that Puck realized this too by the disappointed look on his face.

"So, if it wasn't your fault," Granny said, "Then why did you start the fires,"

Smoke curled out of the cave, "A dragon takes care of his home. This involves protecting it from trespassers like those humans who keep coming to my cave. And, if destroying those Filthy humans means burning a few trees, then so be it."

A chill went up Sabrina's back, while Puck looked like he just found out that he won the lottery. Large vibrations bounced the people as if the ground was a trampoline. "Um.. Uncle Jake," Daphne said, "Now might be a good time to use that stoning stone,"

"Right!" Uncle Jake fished out the small necklace and started rubbing some dust of it. .

He held it out to towards the dragon and let the light catch the stone.

"Uh..Jake. Anytime now," said Henry as the dragon got closer.

"Uh-oh" Uncle Jake said.

"What do you mean 'Uh-oh'?" Veronica yelled.

"Well, you see Jeffery Anderson was never very honest when playing poker…, and …well"

"What!?" Mr. Canis persisted.

"He may have given me a fake," Jake confessed.

By now the dragon was almost on top of them. Sabrina had never liked being close to dragons, especially not the large ones.

"Run!" Sabrina screamed.

End Flashback

******************************************************************************

"Okay, where does this Jeffery Anderson live?" Puck said, "I want to know where I should send a box of cow dung for my gratitude!"

"Make that two boxes," Sabrina said.

"We'll have a better chance if we split up," Mr. Canis told them.

"Okay," Granny yelled, "One, Two, Three,"

They split up so that it was Mr. Canis, Jake, and Granny; Puck and Sabrina; Henry, and Veronica; and Red and Daphne. Sabrina and Puck veered right trying to confuse the dragon by swerving through the trees. The dragon, of course, followed Sabrina.

"Puck, did you bring any glop grenades?" Sabrina called.

"No, the old lady confiscated them after I started hitting cars with them,"

"Do you have any other weapons right now?" she asked.

"Nope"

"Arg!!"

Sabrina ran with Puck flying above her. But, running from a dragon wasn't that easy. The creature started flying lower, too. Its large tail brought branches beating down on the two. Then the dragon swooped down behind them crashing four trees down. Puck slammed Sabrina down just as the dragon flew up again. With dragon in front of them and all the trees behind them, Sabrina knew that they were trapped.

"Puck," she yelled to the fairy boy, "Fly up and get my Grandma. It can't go after both of us."

"What about you?"

"I'll be okay. I have a plan. I'll distract him," she said.

The truth was that Sabrina didn't have a plan. All she knew was that she was tough, and if she was smart she might be able to delay the dragon enough before she was killed. She brought out her own wooden sword. It was time to use her training from Ms. White.

"Ha..ha.. Little one, do you really think you can beat me?" the dragon sneered.

Sabrina always hated when people looked down on her, even if it was true. "Yeah, ugly, I can beat you with one arm behind my back." She charged at the dragon. The dragon lunged.

***********************************************************************

The dragon never met Sabrina. In its way was a large gorilla that quickly changed into a certain fairy boy. Puck charged the dragon as it opened its mouth. Fire spit out of the mouth. Puck quickly dodged it but, not quickly enough. Sabrina saw that part of his right arm was smoking and she saw blood starting to seep through his charred hoodie.

Puck turned it a rhino with a large gleaming horn. The horn plunged into the dragon and Puck turned back. But, Puck's wound wasn't looking good. Blood dripped from his wound. Then, Puck collapsed on the ground. Sabrina ran to him.

"Puck! What the heck are you doing here!" she screamed.

"You should know by now Grimm," Puck groaned as he clutched his arm, "that I can smell a lie a mile away."

Sabrina dragged Puck to a nearby tree. The fairy boy's wound was still bleeding so; Sabrina wrapped her coat around his arm. She felt his forehead. It was way too hot! This was not good. Puck was hurt, with a fever, and the others weren't around.

Puck dragged out his flute and played a few notes. Pixies came and buzzed what sounded like concerns for their master.

"Get me the old lady!" he yelled. The Pixies quickly flew away.

"This would've never happened if you listened to me," Sabrina scolded.

"Ugh! Is this when you're supposed to say 'I told you so!'?"

"Yes!"

"Ugh!!"

"But, I'm not. I'm grateful for what you did but, I'm not sure why you did it. You know I can take care of myself," Sabrina said.

"Geeze! I'm in pain and keep nagging me to explain everything to you!"

Okay, that stung. It wasn't like Sabrina knew that she was the reason he was hurt. She just wanted to know why.

Puck sighed. "I know you can take care of yourself but, I also know that you can't beat a dragon alone. If you must know, I came back because I care,"

Sabrina was stunned but, Puck wasn't done yet. "Yes, Yes. Okay! I'll admit it!" Once again Puck was being dramatic even when he was hurt.

"I love you," Puck said, "And I think you care for me too,"

************************************************************************

Had Sabrina heard right? Puck loved her? Sure, Sabrina had seen Puck's older self give affection to her in the future but, hearing him confess something like that was so hard for her to comprehend.

"You're an idiot!" Sabrina said.

She looked hard at Puck, "Of course I love you," she said. She leaned down and kissed the poor hurt fairy.

"Um… Are we interrupting anything?" Sabrina turned to see Daphne and Red standing by some trees. Sabrina could hear the others on their way too. Her face immediately turned red.

Uncle Jake came in and healed Puck with his Satin's Surgeon's Salve. The entire family was safe, too. On the way back Sabrina became fully aware of the damage that the dragon had done. Mr. Canis saw too, and assured them that the town would be dusted just in case and everyone would believe that the damage was due to a tornado. It had been a long day but, Puck and Sabrina still held hands on the way back home in her car.
