American Dragon Season Three
Disclaimer: I don't own American Dragon!
Chapter/Episode 16: The Future is Dragon
The American Dragon, young Jake Long found himself peaking out from the peak of a cliff as he watched siren Vickie Fickling setting up stones in a large ditch. "HURRY UP!" Jake could hear Chang screaming at her.
In the ditch, Vickie sweated as she set down one more stone. A couple of feet away, Chang stood beside Dylan Anderson as he held his medallion in his hands, smiling. "Are you sure that you know the correct magic that can release the dark one?" Chang asked him.
"Please, Chang…" Anderson stepped away from her and picked up a book that was placed upon a boulder. "With this medallion and book, I can perform the riskiest of spells. Your dark master will be back, and just like you promised, we will destroy the American Dragon and his family!"
"Do you have everything set up?" Chang turned to Vickie.
"Yes, master…" Vickie responded. "But I don't understand. I thought the Dark Dragon would be gone for good. He is trapped in the Portal of the Lunar Eclipse! There is no way he can be released!"
"Shows how much you know…" Anderson replied as he lifted the book. "Unless you know something about magic, then I suggest you just shut up." His medallion started to glow and hover as a light blue mist started to come from the center. Moments later, the mist shot out and quickly formed into a swirling portal. "Now all we have to do is wait for dawn and the Dark Dragon will return…"
Hearing this, Jake prepared to go down and kick their butts, but before he could, his cell phone rang out.
"Well, well, well…" Dylan Anderson grinned. "I wonder who that could be…"
"Go get him!" Chang ordered. As the medallion glowed and Dylan vanished into thin air, Chang pointed her staff at the ground and blasted it. Then, she pulled out something from her sleeves and dropped it into the new hole in the ground. Finally, Chang blew fire into the hole, making it glow.
LINE BREAK
Back on the cliff, Jake scrambled to put his phone away just as Dylan appeared out of thin air. "Hello, Jake…" he growled. His medallion glowing once again, the chain connected to it grew magically. Grinning, Anderson sliced the chain with his claws; the chains then magically floated toward Jake and wrapped around Jake's wrists, binding them behind his back.
"I thought I defeated you!" Jake growled.
"Oh please, Jake…" Anderson grinned. "You can never stop someone as dedicated as I am to my cause…"
LINE BREAK
Jake grunted as Dylan shoved him onto his knees the second he set foot on the camp. Jake's jaw dropped as he watched the swirling portal and the steaming hole in the ground that Chang was standing in front of. The Queen of Cruel turned around and faced Jake with an evil grin on her face.
"Why Jake…" she spoke. "How nice of you to join our little party. In this hole in the ground lies your doom, American Dragon. You have outsmarted me one too many times. As much as I would like you to see the rise of my master once more, I find that your demise has been avoided for far too long. You, toss him in!"
"With pleasure…" Anderson lifted Jake up and forced him over to the hole. "Well Jake, just think about what I get to do to your family in your absence. Have fun in the future!"
"Say wha…?" Jake started, but he was thrown into the hole. Jake disappeared into the darkness with a yell.
"He is dead, master…" Anderson grinned.
"Excellent…" Chang grinned; Dylan turned around, letting loose a grin of his own as the sun started to come up.
"Look!" Vickie called out, pointing at the portal, as the Dark Dragon started to form out of thin air. A large claw reached out of the portal…
BLACKOUT; PLAY THEME SONG
BACK TO THE STORY/SHOW
Jake continued to yell as he continued to fall. However, he soon let out a grunt as he came into contact with something hard. Rolling onto his back, Jake could see that he was in his neighborhood.
He could soon hear shouts as he saw a panting boy with straight black hair with green streaks in them turning a corner, followed by an army of trolls. Jake witnessed as the boy ran into a dead end and the trolls start to surround him.
"Dragon up!" Jake called, and his scaly red dragon form appeared, breaking the chains with no strain. Shooting up in the air, Jake took out several of the trolls with his tail before landing next to the boy, who was already in his also red dragon form.
"Are you alright?" Jake asked.
"What do you think you're doing?!" the kid shouted at him. "I had these punks under control! Who do you think you are?"
"I'm the American Dragon, chump!" Jake felt his anger flaring up. "And I just saved you…"
"I'm the American Dragon!" the young dragon shouted. "Who do you think you are bozo?"
Jake was about to tell the kid he was wrong, but he thought better of it, as at the moment, they were surrounded by trolls. "Listen kid…" Jake said. "Can we talk about this later? Like when we aren't about to get our faces re-arranged?"
"Who are you calling a kid, kid?" the young dragon asked. "I'm seventeen!"
"Oh, let it go!" Jake roared, striking all his anger at the troll. He wrapped his tail around one of the troll's necks and tossed him several feet away. As he fought the trolls, he found the other dragon blasting several with fire. The young dragon then bent down and brought his dragon fist to the cement, breaking it up and sending trolls flying.
However, Jake himself found himself backing up against the wall. There were simply too many of them. Suddenly, the young dragon came against the wall, hitting the ground with a grunt. He recovered quickly, though, and got back to his feet.
"There's too many of them!" Jake exclaimed.
"Very good Einstein!" the young dragon retorted.
The two were about to get back into the fight, even if it meant to the death, but they both froze as they heard a rather sweet, yet also villainous laugh. The trolls stepped to the side as a woman walked up to them.
The young dragon let out a groan and Jake's eyes widened. "Rose?"
"Aw, I see we have two foolish teenage dragons out and doing very naughty things…" Rose grinned. Sure, Rose was older; around 45-ish, but Jake knew that no one else could have the same beautiful blue eyes that Rose had. She wore a similar blood-red Huntsclan uniform, only with metal armor around her shoulders and chest and a black cape similar to the one that the Huntsman had. "You need to be punished…"
"I don't want to hurt you, mom…" the young dragon spoke.
Rose scoffed. "Stupid dragon, I have no children!" She reached behind her back and pulled out a staff glowing with green plasma. "Kill them!"
The trolls began to charge, both dragons hovering in the air and blowing fire at them. Roaring with rage, Rose jumped up into the air and kicked the young dragon, with Rose on him; the young dragon plummeted to the ground, letting out a roar of pain as he slammed against the pavement on his back. Grinning, Rose pointed the blade of her staff towards the young dragon's throat. She was about to bring it down, but Jake slammed into her.
Rose flipped in the air before landing on her feet. Roaring with rage, Rose whirled around as Jake tried to attack. Rose swung the staff up in an attempt to impale him in the chin, but Jake evaded and grabbed her staff and held onto, making it a struggle between the both of them to get the staff.
"You'll pay for this, you wretched, vile beast!" Rose seethed, bringing her foot up in an attempt to kick him.
"I don't think so!" Jake grinned as he wrapped his tail around her ankle and lifted her off the ground upside down. Twirling her around, Jake let her ankle loose, sending Rose flying into a nearby wall. Rose hit it hard and collapsed to the ground, unconscious. Jake closed his eyes and grimaced, truly regretting this action.
Jake suddenly felt himself being shoved to the ground, the young dragon holding him down with a look of anger on his face. "How DARE you attack and harm my mother!" he shouted. "And how do you know her name?"
"I went to school with her!" Jake explained angrily. "She's my girlfriend! Well, on and off, I guess. Well, she was until her parents forced her to…"
"Forced her to move!" the young dragon finished for him, his eyes widening. "You…? You're Jake Long Senior? It can't be! You're dead!"

BACK TO THE STORY/SHOW
"What do you mean I'm dead?" Jake asked. "I'm lying right here! And you still haven't told me who you are!" The young dragon sighed and got up off of Jake.
"You mean it's not obvious?" he asked. "Don't you get it? I'm your son! I'm Jake Long Junior!"
Jake's eyes widened as he remembered Dylan Anderson's words: "Enjoy the future!"
"Son…" Jake got up, finding this word rather strange. "I know this will sound weird, but I'm from the past! I got here after a battle with Chang!"
"That makes sense…" Jake Junior replied, and then he smiled. "Dad, don't you get it! If you're from the past, you can stop this from ever happening!"
"Very well, even though I don't know what has happened…"
"Fu Dog will tell you…" Junior turned and spread his wings, only to yell out. "I think my wing's broken!"
"Fu can help with that." Jake said calmly. "I'm sure he can also help your mother. Speaking of which, you don't happen to have any rope on you, do you?"
"Are you crazy? She's my mother!" Jake Junior glared at his father.
"I know…" Jake replied. "But she's a danger to us and herself. Fu can help her, and if she wakes up on our way to the shop…well, I think we should have a precaution."
"Fine…" Jake Junior walked over to where his mother was lying. Pulling back her cape, he reached to a length of rope attached to her belt. He tossed the rope to his father. "You do it…" he frowned.
LINE BREAK
Moments later, a dragon Jake touched the ground, letting his future son slide off as he took a better grip on Rose. He gasped as he saw what had become of the shop: it had been practically torn down.
"What happened?" Jake asked.
"Fu Dog will tell you!" Jake Junior said in annoyance as he pent back and pushed some debris away, revealing a trap door. Jake Junior opened the door and motioned for Jake to go down.
Nodding, Jake took off in the air and flew down the hole. Jake touched the hardwood floor and found that the shelter had the lights on and it looked very similar to the back of the shop. Catching a glimpse of a couch, Jake tossed the still unconscious and bound Rose onto it as his son came down, closing the door behind him.
"Fu Dog!" Jake Junior called out.
Jake blinked. Nothing was going on. Maybe Fu wasn't here at the moment. However, Jake let out a yelp as he fell forward; Jake rolled over and found Fu biting his foot. The dog stopped as he noticed that his victim was staring at him.
"Who are you?" Fu demanded. "And what are you…Jake?" Fu stopped his hostel questions when he saw his victim's face. "Kid? But, it can't be! You were slain!"
"Yeah, you're going to have to tell me about that one, Fu…" Jake replied.
"Fu, this is Jake from the past…" Jake Junior explained. "Oh Fu, I think my wing is broken…"
"I know that!" Fu stated. "I may be getting older, but I haven't lost my memory yet! I remember the kid versus the big buff American Dragon! As for your wing, I'll fix that later."
LINE BREAK
Moments later, Jake, his future son and Fu were all seated around a table.
"Alright Fu, you need to tell me what is going on here." Jake said. "Yo, I just found out that my boo is evil again!"
"Relax kid, she isn't evil." Fu explained. "In order for you to understand everything, this is thirty years in the future. You have a teenage son. Starting the tale; ten years after first leaving the city and you, Rose returned to New York at age 25 after her parents died in a car crash; and you being you, were there for her. Not even a year later, you got married and three years later, you had a son: Jacob Luke Long Junior. Then, ten years ago, Chang took complete control over the world after she brought the Dark Dragon back."
"Aw man, that was when I fell due to that Anderson dude!" Jake exclaimed.
"What are you talking about?" Fu asked. You never fell! Sure, she's got some dude with the same name working for her, but nothing like that happened. Anyway, Chang almost immediately got rid of everyone in your family."
"What?" Jake asked.
"Gramps, your folks and Haley were all slain just days after Chang took power." Fu said sadly. "Chang is trying to destroy everyone close to you, and I mean everyone."
"What about Trixie and Spud?" Jake could feel his heart pounding in fear for his friends.
"Spud disappeared when Chang completely destroyed the whole Island of Draco. However, we have reason to think he survived. As for Trixie, she was forced into hiding with that Holly Jennings girl."
"Holly's okay, too?"
"Yes, but unfortunately her brother TJ isn't…" Fu replied. "But that isn't the worst part, kid. You and Rose bravely fought side by side, but then Rose disappeared. She was obviously captured by Chang. But then she just turned up again…and she was unharmed! You were beside yourself with joy. But unfortunately, that night as you slept, you were slain by her. It is obvious that Chang will want to kill Rose in order for her revenge to be complete, but my guess is that she's waiting for Rose to finish off her own son. Like I've said before, Chang really avoids the 'ick' factor."
"So, you're saying that Rose is being controlled by Chang?" Jake asked.
"Exactly!" Fu replied. "And I see that you've captured her."
"Can you help bring her back, Fu?" Jake asked.
"Well, I can't be sure, kid." Fu replied. "But I can try. Do you have any more questions?"
"Yeah, how can Chang still be alive?" Jake asked. "She was like 70 when I was a kid! She has to be liked a hundred now. How can she still be alive?"
"We don't know." Jake Junior replied. "We sent in a few people to find out, like Fred Nerk and that nix friend you had, but they never came back. Our guess is that the Dark Dragon is giving her life. Dad, you have to stop this from happening."
"And how am I supposed to do that?" Jake asked.
"You must destroy the Dark Dragon, kid." Fu replied.
From where all were sitting, they could suddenly hear groaning. Then, surely it stopped and was replaced by enraged screaming. Rose had awoken.
BLACKOUT; CUT TO COMMERCIAL
BACK TO THE STORY/SHOW
Rushing into the front room, Jake, Fu and Jake Junior could see Rose on the couch, fighting against the ropes holding her. She turned her heads to the new arrivals, and she growled. "You will all pay for this!" As Rose continued to rant angrily, Fu walked over to a shelf and grabbed a pair of tongs, and got a vial down. Getting back to Jake, he handed it to him.
"Yo Fu, what is this?" Jake asked.
"Just give it to her, kid." Fu replied. "Hopefully, it will work."
Jake nodded before walking over to the woman. The older Rose tensed as Jake kneeled down by her. "Fu, how do I do this?" Jake asked.
"Just pour it in her mouth!" Fu called.
Jake nodded, and he turned back to the angered woman. "Come on Rose, just let me give this to you. It will help you, babe." This remark resulted in Jake grunting in pain as Rose's boot connected with his stomach.
"Do NOT call me 'babe'." She growled. Jake sighed as he got closer to her with the vial, and Rose tried her best to back further up against the couch. "Typical evil dragon!" she spat. "Trying to poison a helpless prisoner; how disgraceful!"
"Rose, stop!" Jake begged. "I just want to help! Son, can you help me out?" Groaning, Jake Junior went over to his mother and held her mouth open while his future father poured the contents of the vial in. After a moment, Rose simply spit it up, coughing.
"It didn't work…" Jake Junior said in shock, as he watched his mother struggle even more.
"Rose! Please!" Jake begged, getting closer to the deadly ninja. "Can't you remember our past?! We went through so much together! Please Rose, you have to remember! All our fights, you let me go during the Hunt, you helped me fight against the Huntsman and you were the one who stopped him! Rose, you have to remember! Please Rose! I love you!"
Rose suddenly stopped fighting, and her body relaxed. Rose let out a groan as her head fell back onto the couch and her eyes closed. "Fu, what just happened?" Jake asked.
"I think you just broke the hold on her, kid." Fu replied. "How cliché…"
Jake turned his head back to Rose when he heard her groaning. Her eyes opened a few seconds later and a smile appeared on her face when she saw Jake. "Jake…you look so much younger than I remembered you to be…" she mused. "And…" tears started to form in her eyes. "…I thought you were dead…"
"Rose, you remember what happened?" Jake asked. "It doesn't matter though, because I'm going to fix this problem."
LINE BREAK
Moments later, all four were all sitting around the table. Rose looked down sadly. "I can't believe I was under Chang's control for a decade. The things that monster made me do…" she cringed. "I thought I lost you, Jake…"
"Its okay, Rose..." Jake replied, trying to bring some comfort to her. "It wasn't you, it was Chang. And I'm here…The Am Drag is going to change this future. I'll destroy the Dark Dragon, and prevent all of this from happening."
"You know I'm going to help you, Jake…" Rose added quickly. "I'm going to do everything in my power to help you. In fact, I think I may have an idea on how to get into Chang's lair. Perhaps my unfortunate memory of the past ten years can be useful. I'll need you as well, son."
Jake Junior sighed. "I guess I don't have a choice, then…"
"That's great…" Fu suddenly hopped down from his seat. "You three go on into the lair. I'll meet you guys there, but first I need to make a few calls. If we're going to take out Chang, the Dark Dragon and all her crony's, we're going to need a whole army."
LINE BREAK
Jake touched the ground after a quick flight, followed by his son, who set Rose down. "How's that wing doing, Jake?" Jake asked his son.
"Better…" his son replied. Rose stepped forward and pointed to a large building at the end of the block.
"That's her lair." Rose stated.
"So how are we going to do this?" Jake asked. "Are we just going to break in and kick some evil-doer's butts?"
"I actually like that idea." Jake Junior replied. "Maybe we are related after all…"
"No! Listen…" Rose turned around as she reached onto her belt and pulled out two pairs of shackles. "I don't like this idea, but I think that it's the wisest. We'll go on in and see what is happening inside, and then we'll look for Chang."
LINE BREAK
The doors to the lair opened as Rose entered, followed by both dragons in shackles. Jake gasped as he saw Fred Nerk sitting at the desk. "I thought you said that he was never found!" Jake whispered to his future son.
"And now you know why…" Rose whispered back. "Now be quiet! Dragon Nerk! I have captured the American Dragon's son and his friend…Chang ordered them to be brought to her alive."
Nerk stood up as he looked at the dragons. "Wait a minute…" he spoke. "That is the American Dragon! I will be alerting Cha…AAAHHHH!" Nerk let out a howl of pain as Rose shot him with the staff. "Sorry, Nerk…" Rose apologized sheepishly.
"What's going on down there?" All three gasped as a now fully grown Vickie Fickling jumped down from a higher level. She grinned. "Well Huntsgirl, I didn't think that you had it in you to slay Jake Long, even with Chang's mind control. I told her that she shouldn't keep you as a pet, but she didn't listen. Well, now it seems like I get the pleasure of finishing this myself."
"Well, I always did want a rematch for that fight we had thirty years ago…" Rose got in position to fight. "Even though I won…" The two then charged at each other. Rose tried to trip the siren, but Vickie grabbed hold of her hand and yanked her arm behind her back.
"You are still weak from the mind control, hunter…" Vickie hissed. "You were never powerful enough to fight a siren!"
"Oh really?" From behind, Jake easily broke free from the shackles and soared at Vickie. He slammed his tail into Vickie's face, sending her flying into the wall. Vickie fell back onto the floor and didn't move again.
LINE BREAK
The doors to Chang's throne room busted open as Rose, Jake and their son stood ready to fight. They saw Chang, sitting high up on a throne, with the Dark Dragon right behind her. Chang looked worse for the wear; her eyes were dull and tubes were holed to her pumping the Dark Dragon's power into her body. Chang lifted a weak hand and rasped. The Dark Dragon did the same, only he spoke. "Destroy them!" The Dark Dragon boomed.
"Who is he talking to?" Jake asked Rose, just as five claws whizzed past his head and nailed the wall. An older Dylan Anderson landed in dragon form as his claws re-grew.
"Aw, Jake…" Anderson smiled evilly. "I'm so glad to see you. Are you enjoying the future?"
"This was your plan…" Jake realized. "You wanted this…"
"Well of course!" Anderson grinned. "It really seems as though I'm in charge. All Chang does is sit lifelessly on a throne while the number one threat to the magical world simply gives all his power just to sustain her life. It's perfect! Who do you think was controlling your future wife?"
"Well, you're still taking orders!" Jake Junior flew at his enemy and attempted to blow fire at him. Anderson merely grinned as he held up his claw and started to shoot his claws at him. Jake Junior easily dodged all of these and attempted to smack him with his tail, but Dylan grabbed it and threw his enemy to the floor.
"What are you waiting for?" The Dark Dragon demanded. "Destroy them!"
"Just wait, my friend…" Anderson turned and watched the Dark Dragon. Sure enough, just seconds later, the windows above shattered, and Huntsclan bombs pelted the evil dragon. Moments later, a massive explosion consumed the Dark Dragon. Chang was thrown from her thrown; she hit the ground, only to wither and shrivel into dust with the destruction of her dark master.
LINE BREAK
Back at the ditch, the Dark Dragon let out a roar as steam started to come from his body. "Master, what is happening?" Vickie asked. She soon got her answer; the portal, with the Dark Dragon still trapped in it erupted into flames as the Dark Dragon disappeared in a dark mist. The portal evaporated into thin air.
"NO!" Chang shouted, Anderson grinning from behind.
LINE BREAK
Back in the future, Fu, Holly, Trixie and Spud all jumped from the building and entered the building. Holly and Trixie both looked older, but were still recognizable, while Spud sported a wizard's cloak and wielded two wands. "Jakie, what's up?" Trixie called. "Hey dude!" Spud called.
"You're busted, you fool!" Jake took a step forward to Anderson, but the evil dragon only laughed. "You fool!" he shouted. "This is exactly what I wanted! Bring it!"
Rose jumped up with a glowing staff, and swung it at Anderson, but Dylan got on his back and was able to kick Rose away. Rose skidded across the floor where Holly was waiting for her. "I'm glad to see that you are back to normal, Rose." Holly offered her friend a hand. With Rose on her feet, Holly lowered herself. "Get on my back." Holly told her. Rose complied, and Holly flew at the villain, just as Jake and his future son were fighting as well. Dylan slammed his tail into Holly, who merely grabbed onto his tail and yanked him to the ground. Rose jumped off of Holly's back and flipped in the air, blasting him with the staff.
Dylan Anderson slammed to the ground with a thud. "I'll hold him down!" Trixie volunteered as she tried to pin his arms to the ground. Grinning, Anderson merely kicked Trixie off of him and got up, only to be repeatedly hit by giant glowing green hands, by Spud's wand. Growling, Anderson shot up in the air and shot five claws at Spud, knocking both of the wands from his hands. Fu jumped up and tried to bite Dylan, but the evil dragon easily tossed the dog away.
Jake Junior swooped down, his mother in his claws. Letting Rose go, the ninja dropped down on Anderson. She planted her foot in his face, but he grabbed her and tossed her away from him. As Rose flew, Jake rushed up and caught her.
"Thanks, Jake…" she smiled at him.
"Hey, no problem, babe…" he returned the smile as he set her down on the ground. Charging her staff, Rose jumped and flipped over Anderson, swinging her glowing staff and slicing his back. Anderson roared in pain as he hunched over. Rose got closer to her enemy and prepared to finish him with the staff.
"This is for my family…"
However, before Rose could do it, her eyes widened as she saw that the cut on Anderson's back seemed to be magically healing. Grinning, Dylan turned around, revealing that he was clutching the glowing medallion in his claws. Before Rose could react, Dylan's tail was wrapped around her throat, she was lifted off of her feet and she was thrown into Jake.
Jake Junior watched as he watched his mother and future father fall to the ground. Growling, Jake Junior took off into the air just as Trixie tried to engage the villain in battle, only to be defeated.
Junior slammed into Dylan, and both rolled around on the floor. Jake Junior delivered a few good punches, only to be punched off himself.
Grinning, Anderson brought his hands together, forcing all of his enemies into a line, shackles magically appearing around their wrists, and a leash around Fu.
"Well, it looks like I win this time, Long…" Dylan walked over to Jake and grabbed him by the throat. "And now I'm going to destroy all of you, starting with you!"
Dylan raised his claw and was about to strike, but the shackles around Jake vanished into thin air and the American Dragon started to soar into the air. "What is happening?" Anderson asked.
"Don't you know loser?" Rose grinned. "Jake destroyed the Dark Dragon…"
"…Which means that none of this will ever happen…" Holly added.
Roaring with rage, Anderson looked up at Jake. Just as Jake disappeared through the ceiling, Jake could hear his enemy scream: "I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS, LONG!"
LINE BREAK
Jake felt himself being able to breathe again as he felt himself being lifted out of the whole. Jake was able to see the sky and the moon as he felt his back collide to the ground. Staring up at the sky, Spud's face came into his view. "Jake, buddy! Are you okay, dude?"
Trixie's face also came into Jake's view. "Jakie!" Offering her friend a hand, Jake took it and stood up to see his grandfather engaging both Chang and Dylan in battle, while a growling Fu forced Vickie in to backing up.
Dylan blew fire into his hands, which then formed into daggers made of fire. He attempted to bring the dagger into the elder dragons back as Chang grabbed his arms and held him in place.
"Grandpa!" Jake called. "Spud, Trixie! We have to do something!"
Just the, Fu was thrown to the ground as an angry Vickie started to charge at Jake and his friends. Spud quickly pulled out his wand and chanted, forming a glowing green fist. Just as Vickie got close enough, Spud slammed the fist into her, sending the screaming siren flying up into the air and into Dylan before he could deliver the fatal blow.
The fire daggers evaporated into thin air; Lao-Shi, now free, slammed his tail into the dragon, sending him toppling to the ground. "It's over Chang!" Lao-Shi replied, preparing to fight Chang and the siren, which was now dangling from her ankle.
"Not quite, Lao-Shi!" Chang grinned as she blasted fire at him. The fire caught Jake's dragon master off guard and he fell backwards to the ground. Chang looked down at Dylan Anderson, just as he stood up.
"You finish them!" Chang ordered. "You know where we'll be!" Then, turning, Chang flew away, with Vickie still clinging onto her ankle.
"Gramps!" Fu rushed over to Lao-Shi as he got up. "Chang just got away. We have to go after her!"
"You won't be in any position to go after her!" Anderson shouted, blowing fire into his claws. His medallion glowed and the fire formed into two rings. Grinning, Dylan shot the rings at the elder dragon. The rings wrapped around Lao-Shi's wrists and hurled him to the ground, pinning him down.
"That should hold you, weak old man…" Dylan spat, only to catch glimpse of Trixie trying to attack. The dragon easily kicked her to the side before firing five claws at Spud. Spud formed a shield with his wand before chanting another spell, releasing a blast of green magic at the evil dragon. Dylan easily lifted off his feet and dodged it, the blast flying into Fu and transforming him into a toad. "Hey!" the dog called.
Laughing, Dylan blew fire at Spud, and the young wizard was forced to dodge it by jumping out of the way. Turning, Dylan saw Jake and their eyes locked. Before Jake could blink, he found himself lying on his back, just inches from the hole that sent him to the future. Dylan grinned in a twisted fashion as he brought his hand around his throat, the claws just starting to re-grow into Jake's neck.
"You ruined my future as supreme ruler, Jake!" Dylan growled; Jake cringing as the claws started to poke at his neck. "But not to worry, I will take over, with that useless Chang as my slave! It will all come to pass…with your death on this very night. And don't worry, I'll find and eliminate your family. They will pay for my suffering…"
Just as Jake thought that the claws would impale his neck and end him, he heard Trixie shout from behind: "Is that so?" A large rock made contact with the back of Dylan's skull. The dragon's eyes bulged and he fell forward onto Jake. Groaning, Jake brought his feet up and kicked Dylan off of him. Dylan flipped off of him and fell backwards into the hole. Jake looked down as his enemy disappeared into the darkness.
"We did it!" Trixie cheered. "High five, Jakie!"
As Jake stood up, Trixie held out her hand, but Jake just shook his head.
"With that medallion…" Jake said darkly. "He will not go down so easily. He'll be back…"
Jake and Trixie then walked over to Spud, who waved his wand, causing a blue light to come out and transform Fu back into a dog. "You need to be more careful, Spudinski!" Fu scorned.
"I'm just a beginner!" Spud apologized.
As Spud and Fu started to argue, Jake bent down and cut the fiery rings holding his grandfather down. "Thanks, Jake…" his grandfather smiled at him.
"Gramps…" Jake asked. "How did you know? How did you find me?"
"Well, you never came home from the mission, kid." Fu replied. "And fortunately, we knew you were down here checking Chang out."
"Your friends wanted to help as well…" Lao-Shi replied. "Jake, you must tell us what happened while you were in that hole…"
"Can I tell you on the way home?" Jake asked. "Or better yet, tomorrow morning…? This dragon needs to get some shut-eye. He's had a long night."
Lao-Shi lowered his head. "Very well, young dragon…"
All turning around, all of the heroes began the long walk back to their homes.
BLACKOUT; END OF CHAPTER/EPISODE
A/N: So, this one is a little longer than the previous one. So, I hoped you enjoyed this. I know the future or alternate reality thing has been done in many other kids shows, such as Kim Possible and Danny Phantom, so to clear this up: I don't own those either.
I tried to be as original as I could with what I did in the future, and I also tried my best to give everyone in the battle something to do and not to make them look weak. So, I hoped you enjoyed the chapter.
