Seth vs. Smith

"What do you want, slayer?" Eric Smith asks, spatting the last word in disgust.

"Just wondering why Haley didn't tell me about you."

"I warned her on time." Smith says. "Not that I think it'd have stopped her for long."

"You know what?" Seth asks. "I don't care if you and Nerk trust me or not. I'm in the Huntsclan. Who am I to complain about it? Haley is the one I love."

"Don't worry, Seth." Sun calmly replies. "Haley and I trust you. And so does her brother."

"Sun, you might be a nice Sheila but you're too naive." Eric Smith comments. "I'm surprised you haven't been slain."

"Well, if you excuse me, I'll leave you two alone." Seth says.

"So, your folks want to hunt unicorns tonight?" Jake asks.

"Yes, Jake." Seth answers.

LINE BREAK – Central Park

Seth's parents try to hit Jake and Lao Shi with a sphinx hair net for each dragon but they use their tails to throw the nets back to them the same way Jake did during one of his first fights with the previous Huntsmaster. Before Seth had any time to react, he feels somebody approaching from behind and dodges on time.

"You're good, slayer." Says the dragon who attacked him. "But not good enough."

"Dude, you don't need to do it." Jake pleads. "Seth's on our side."

That caught Seth's Dad's attention. "You traitor!"

Haley knocks both of them unconscious. "Great!" She sarcastically says. "Now what do we do?"

"We have no choice but take Seth with us and plead to the Dragon Council to offer him political asylum, young one." Lao Shi replies. "We'd have done the same to Rose but fortunately she wasn't around to stop the previous Huntsmaster from being captured."

Now all of them (minus Eric Smith and perhaps Joey Nerk) are praying for Seth's sake.

Please review. I'm sorry it's so short.
