I haven't forgotten!I just was having a real hard time figuring out whether I wanted Rose to continue being Jen Phillips or not...trust me, it was a hard choice. But in the end, Jen was scrapped :P
Yeah! anyway, this chapter is mainly bios, but we still have some action here :P
Luiz4200: Cassie being Bridge? Huh, I don't know :P I guess, possibility wise, Bridge could be anyone, if she's alive or not ;) It certainly is an idea! Don't worry, by the end of Humans, there will definetly be a happy ending :D For whom, I can't say, but quite a number of people will be very happy :D Hope you enjoy the chapter!
Onej6: Your optimism is quite interesting ;) I do have something in mind for her, worry not! Well, I see that many people are having problems with Cassie being adopted by Jake and Rose, but I just see it as getting Jake and Rose back to their lives, since, as you're going to read below, they're not in the best of relationships right now. Thanks! Glad you like it! Hope you enjoy the chapter!
S.S. Pie: Yep, I covered a lot there, and though this chapter might not be to par with that, hopefully you still like it! Thanks! It'll get very messsy ;) Worry not :D Enjoy the chapter!
GG: Yay for optimism! Hmm, that certainly could be an idea! :D Unless she can't come back, then her promise can't be fulfilled can it? They're not replacing them, as you'll read on below, it's just a way of getting Jake and Rose back into their lives, back to how they were before all this disaster happened...it'll be better explained below :) They're definetly not replacing her! Enjoy the chapter!
One thing! Before I forget: If anyone is wondering, yes, Violet's daughter was originally named Kate, but I decided to change that to Holly! So if you were under the impression that Holly's name was different, it's because it was!
One more thing, If you haven't, reading the previous stories in the series will make the story make much more sense!
The order is: Protectors, then Dragons, and now this one :)
As for Spies, it's a middle story, not directly revolving around the key concepts of this universe, but it's more a filler :D
As for my upgrading Protectors, I have gotten up to chapter 8! And I'm partway #9 :D
I think that's it for me...Enjoy the chapter!
Ok, time for bios!
Jake Long/American Dragon: Still in the role of the American Dragon, he spends most of his time scouring Magus Bazaar for any information on Bridgette, but so far, nothing. He has gotten fiercer when battling, taking his anger out on others. He's no longer married to Jen Phillips, having no more reason to do so. He's heart-broken that his daughter is gone, and refuses to believe the rumours that she may be dead. Rose and Jake don't see each other anymore personally, not wanting to re-open the wound, since they had an enormous argument about all of this. They're technically still married, but they're the farthest from a married couple in reality.
Rose Long/ Huntress: She feels extremely guilty for what happened, and wishes nothing more than to turn back the clock and undo what has happened. She has gotten more ferocious, and while not killing the good magical creatures, she has seriously harmed them. Like Jake, she takes her anger out on anyone that tries to talk with her, and she blames herself completely with everything. She has secluded herself, and won't talk to anyone, except to bark at them or to give them orders. She's not sure what to believe anymore, and she truly does believe that she did kill Bridge, not in the physical sense, but she did drive her daughter away, and now she's gone, and doesn't seem to want to come back. She's also no longer Jen Phillips, not wanting to pretend to be anyone else than who she has to be.
Bridgette Long: She is... In an undisclosed location, in an unknown state. That is all you need to know.
Violet Hall/ Kate Lexis/ Knight: Violet has long given up in trying to talk to Rose. She's there if her sister needs her, but that's about it. She has distanced herself from anyone in the family, not wanting to hear their soap opera. However, she still defends Rose against anyone, since no matter what, Rose is still her sister. She is still also Kate Lexis, and does wedding dresses as a living now, trying to get contaminated from all the happiness from her customers. As Knight, she does her own stuff, not bothering to help Jake, still not having forgiven him. She also refuses to believe that Bridge is dead, and will give anyone an earful if they try to say otherwise.
Henry Hall: He has gotten his dream of being a high-ranking lawyer, but is hampered by the gloominess that sometimes escapes from his wife. He knows that Violet wants to talk to someone, let her feelings out, but she won't cave in, and doesn't talk to him about it. He is now a partner at a law firm with Spud.
Holly Hall/ Pacifist: Holly is quite unlike her mother. She's timid, and doesn't usually want people to know what she's thinking, afraid to make them angry at her. She has been training for the past 3 years with Cassie, and has become quite close friends with the orphan. She has no idea she ever had a cousin, or an aunt, and doesn't understand why her mom sometimes seems so sad, but trusts her mother's judgment, and believes that the American Dragon's daughter is alive.
Cassandra "Cassie" Bluemore/ Avenger: Cassie is an amnesiac teen, and an orphan. She is still very angry at that trucker for having killed her parents, but her anger was abated by Ninja and the King and Queen, who helped her channel her energy to helping magical creatures. She is now quite the accomplished fighter, and a very good friend of Holly and Em. She refuses to believe all the rumours that the American Dragon's daughter is alive, thinking that they're all trying to cling to something that no longer exists.
Emma/ Ninja: A very good friend of Cassie and Holly, as well as a very skilled fighter. She is planning on staying at the Protectors to teach the younger generations how to defend themselves.
Haley Norman/ Huntsgirl: Haley is beyond herself with what happened. She doesn't know how to act in either way. Jake is pissed off and moody. Rose is distant and unapproachable. She is now teaching High School Mythology, meaning she's still dealing with the same gang, minus the one person she really wants to see. Her kids aren't making her life easier by constantly re-creating what they believe was the fight between Huntress and the dragon. She, like Rose and Jake, has become more ferocious, even when teaching, making her very strict.
David Norman/ Huntsboy: He's sometimes afraid to move with all the nerves around the complex. Not that he doesn't care about Bridge, he just wishes they would all stop blaming themselves for it. However, he values his life too much to deal with the consequences of suggesting that.
Gwen/ Huntswoman: Gwen, like David, just wants everyone to stop glaring daggers at the world, but is scared shitless at the Huntress's reaction if she dares to suggest that.
James Avezon/ Hunter: James doesn't understand one bit at what's going on. All that he knows is that Bridge disappeared, and the world seems to be extra angry at that happening. Like the majority of people, he refuses to believe Bridge may be dead. He fears the moment Mr. Long decides to round off on him, and blame him for the disappearance.
Fitzdale "Fitz" Jones: Fitz, is on the same boat as James, confused at what has happened. Although he won't mention it, he thinks that Bridge may in fact be dead. Either that, or that she never really was their friend, or cared for them, since she could've at least told them that she was leaving. However, all the signs seem to point to Bridge being dead, but he'll keep that fact to himself.
Artemisia "Art" Spudinski: Like Fitz and James, Art is totally confused at what has happened, since the trio only know part of the story. Also, Art is torn with what has happened with Bridge. She's pissed at Bridge for not having told them that she was leaving, but also gets sad and angry if she reads any article saying why Bridge may be dead.
Arthur Spudinski: As mentioned above, Spud is now in a law firm partnership with Henry. He feels like Jake is no longer the same guy he was friends with, with how much he's changed. He doesn't know what to think with Bridge.
Trixie Spudinski: Trixie is on the same boat as her husband. Jake is no longer the same guy he was, and doesn't know what to think about Bridge's state. She tries her best to comfort Art, about her friend, but is sometimes clueless on what to do.
Peter Avezon: Him. Well, apart from being responsible for all of the above happening, he's leading the revolt against the Huntsclan and the American Dragon. His plan: to weaken them both, and set them against the other, killing off both sides. He, however, has realized that he needs to do one more thing to make his plan work, to make the ultimate effect.
Clark: If there's one person who's feeling guilty as well, it would be this guy. He could also be considered responsible for this, for sure. He is torn between confessing to Huntress, or not.
Susan and Jonathan Long: Now they truly hate Rose. They have taken everything at face value, and agree with the theory that Rose killed her own daughter. They haven't managed to talk with Jake yet, but when they do, all hell will break loose.
Diana and Jeff Evans: They have just learned that they have another granddaughter, and it's someone who they until then, had thought to be dead. Now they're rethinking Rose's humanity, and are seriously considering that maybe, Bridgette is still alive.
Phew, that was a long one! But I thought I had to add many people, now for the chapter!
==At the Hall residence
"Henry, I'm home!" Violet called as she opened the door to let the two girls, and their luggage, in.
"Daddy!" Holly yelled ecstatically, running up to her father, who picked her up and hugged her.
"How're you sweetie?" Henry asked.
"I'm great! Guess what, I have a sister!" Holly beamed.
Henry looked to where Cassie was awkwardly standing. "Ah yes, very pleased to meet you Cassie." Henry said, holding his hand out.
"Likewise." Cassie stoically replied, not bothering to shake her new father's hand.
"Cassie, I was wondering if I could talk you about something?" Violet tentatively asked.
"Sure." Cassie shrugged.
"Now, I just want to settle one thing, right now. If you decide to say no, you're still going to be staying here ok? Please understand that this would be something on top of the fact, not a true intention ok?"
"I have no idea what you just said, but sure." Cassie shrugged, wondering where this was going to.
"Now, I have a very close friend of mine, who lost their daughter about the same time that you lost your parents. I want to see if maybe, you can help each other out." Violet cautiously said.
"Wait, what? I don't know, how do you want me to help them?" Cassie asked.
"I just want you to help them get tethered to the ground. However, I have yet to see if they agree to this. You see, the daughter's missing, not dead, so they're just be waiting for her to come back. But I really want them to have someone to take care of while they wait." Violet continued.
"So in other words, you want me to adult-sit them until their daughter comes back? What happens when the prodigal daughter returns?" Cassie asked, wanting to know all the facts before committing.
"You come back and live with us. Again, I have to see if they agree to this." Violet assured Cassie.
"Fine, I'll give it a chance. Just don't tell them anything about my extra-curricular activities." Cassie conceded.
"Sure. I'll go talk to them. By the way, Henry was also part of the Protectors, so he knows." Violet winked at Cassie, leaving to go talk to the distressed couple.
==Long House
Jake was in a state. He wanted nothing more than to go back to drowning his sorrows with some TV or something. But nooo, his temperamental sister-in-law has to come and talk with both him and Rose. So now he was getting the house presentable enough for the two sisters.
"What the hell does Violet want?" Huntress barked, entering the house.
"How the hell should I know? She's your sister, not mine." Jake scoffed.
"Legally speaking, she's just as much your sister as mine, Dragon Boy." Huntress snarled.
"A bit of humour is that it? What happened? Got to torture some poor soul-" Jake didn't finish since he got pushed up against the wall by Huntress.
"One more word and I can guarantee that you won't make through it." Huntress threatened. "It's not my fault, and I apologized, you don't want to believe me, then too bad!"
"Rose, I , I didn't mean it like that. We're both to blame for this. Look, I just don't really want to talk to Violet-"
"Well too bad, 'cause I'm already here. You two need a moment? I can come back." Violet was leaning against the door, smirking widely.
"Vi, what the fuck do you want? Neither Jake nor I are in the mood." Huntress snapped, letting her husband go, and turning to face her sister.
"Nice to see you too. Anyway, I was wondering if you guys wanted to adopt-"
"You want us to WHAT!" The couple screeched.
"I could've just asked you guys to go Mars the way you guys reacted." Violet replied, tolling her eyes. " I recently adopted an orphan, who lost her parents about three years ago, meaning, about the same time you guys lost Bridge. So, in order to get you guys back in society, how about taking in Cassie-"
"Like HELL I'm doing that! I want to find my OWN daughter, not adopt another one! You're an inconsiderate bitch you know that?" Jake roared.
"Thanks, I think that's the kindest you've ever been Dragon. Listen, I miss Bridge as much as you guys, but let's face it, it's been 3 years! 3! Just take care of her for now. Once Bridge appears, I'll take her back in. What do you say?" Violet offered.
"Vi, I'm going with Jake on this. I want to find my own daughter!" Huntress snarled.
"And how well is that working out for you? Listen, I'm not saying you have to take her in permanently. I just think you guys are wasting yourselves! If Bridge wants to come back, she will! Just try and make this girl's life a bit better. I don't mind taking care of Cassie, but I think you guys would benefit from this a lot! What do you say?" Violet pleaded.
"I'll think about it." Huntress stated, getting on her board and leaving.
"What she said." Jake shrugged, going off to do hell knows what.
Violet shook her head, this was going to be a long day.
As you can tell, Jake and Rose are in quite the loving relationship!
But yeah, they do agree with some of you guys about adopting her...but that might change soon! ;)
Snippet time!
"Of course! I'm just helping them, not ditching you! Plus, they might not agree to it you know."
"Have nothing better to do?"
"Stay back Holly, I'll handle that monster!"
"Get away from her bitch!"
"Holly, go back home!"
"That was Cassie"
"She can pack a punch, that's for sure."
"What do you say?"
"I'm Rose"
"FU!"
"You're going to school."
"Vhat! Another vone? Ei thought yu vere still missing vone?"
"Take a seat!"
"Is Mrs. Norman always in that mood?"
"Kind of."
'You called us?"
"I want you to get me the body of the American Dragon's daughter."
Tadaa! Intense chapter coming up!
Enjoy!
And please! REVIEW!
