Ch. 11
Alex fell off the balcony, and everyone else was too afraid to do anything. As she fell she thought it was all over and her life had come to a complete stop. Right before she could hit the ground, she felt a jolt hit her. She opened her eyes to see that it was the man that came from the jet on a jet pack. He kept a mask over his face, and had on some kind of uniform. She heard Drew call him "Van Rook". He landed on the balcony holding Alex captive. Zak got real angry this time, so he charged at Van Rook in an attempt to free her. But Van Rook stopped him when he squeezed Alex really tight and she screamed in pain. Zak was stopped in his tracks and shouted at him.
"STOP IT. How do any of you even know that she's what you think she is?" Zak asked
Drew walked over to Zak and got down on one knee to talk to him.
"Zak tell me, when you and Alex first met, did you notice anything strange about her? Anything that was out of the ordinary?" Drew asked
Zak stood there for a moment, trying to think of anything that was out of the ordinary about Alex.
"No, I couldn't think of... Wait a minute when me and Fisk were in that burning city, that's where we found her, and when me and her first met, she had dark purple dragon eyes." Zak said
Zak finally realized on how it made sense. About why they believe she's the dragon cryptid. He continued about what else he noticed.
"And it's not just her eyes; me and Fisk heard a hissing noise. It was like a snake, but bigger, a lot bigger. Not to Minchin that it would explain on why her clothes were so torn up the day we met, she must have been the one that destroyed that city." Zak said
"Wait, she had purple dragon eyes?" Doc asked
"Yes she did, but..." Zak stuttered for a moment.
The Saturdays couldn't help but notice on how tears were flowing down Alex's face, because she knew they were telling the truth. Van Rook finally let her go, and she fell onto the ground with her arms wrapped around her waist, gasping for breath. Zak ran to her side and helped her up.
"Zak, what they're saying is the true. I kept it a secret because I was afraid of you and your family rejecting me. If you want to know how it happened, how I obtained my "other half" you must first know about my past. It may explain a few things." Alex said
