A/N Sorry it took so long but my writer's block is over so enjoy this new chapter.
Ch 59 School and Dragons
He didn't get the desired effect the first time around.
Jake had everything from the waist down dragon while the rest of him stayed human.
This was a case of that top so doesn't go with that shoes and pants.
The next hour went pretty much the same way. Jake's teenage hormones were shorting his patience causing him to become frustrated quickly.
"The heck with this," Jake exclaimed. "I'm taking a break."
"You haven't been at it that long" LS exclaimed him self.
"When you were practicing the parts you didn't give up till much longer" LS added.
"Whatever" Jake said as he walked away.
"Curse who ever came up with that word" LS cursed. "The youth of the past two generations have used that word for every situation" LS fumed a little more.
Then a gust of wind came to the roof before the sound of shoes touching ground was heard.
"Judging by the way you look things could be going better" the ever calm and cheery voice of Sun said from behind LS.
"The lack of discipline in a teen confounds me," LS answered turning around to face Sun. "You know what I mean?"
"I teach middle school half of my students are teens" Sun explained. "Besides every dragon finds transforming hard, even you," Sun went on. "It does get frustrating. In my years of teaching I've learned teens need moments of relaxation and time of fun. That what lunch and after school activities and hung outs are for."
"And you're saying" LS asked not sure what she was saying.
"Turn the practice into short sessions and when Jake walks out give him some time and try again later once he's clamed down" Sun put it simply.
"It doesn't seem like I have a choice" LS said.
"But I didn't come here to give you advice on teenagers" Sun said getting to the point of why she came in the first place. "Since you're starting Jake's training you will be taking Jake out into the field."
"That's what the dragon master prepares their students for doing it on their own" LS explained.
"I know that but that will later mean he may have to take on a member of the huntsclan" Sun got to the point. "Jake has history with them who knows how he'll react. And sources have indicated huntsclan activity around the area one can only guess a hunter might be coming to occupy New Your City."
"I see" LS started. "But Jake will have to face them on later on when he takes on the full duties of the American dragon."
"True as it is I suggest until you know how he'll react and resolve it maybe the two of us should back him up on any mission involving the huntsclan" Sun suggested.
"I would prefer to handle it alone but considering I to have a darkened history with them same as Jake I suppose I could use some one with a cool head" LS admitted see the point Sun was trying to get across.
"I'm glad you agree and understand" Sun answered. "Please take this" San said handing LS a black wrist band that resembled a watch but the face didn't have hands or numbers it was just clear glass over a black circular surface.
LS new it was a magical communicator it's a lot more useful then a cell phone. On top of being smaller and fitting on your wrist you don't need and numbers you merely need to think of whom you want to talk to and it will link you up to them. On top of that it was harder to trace it then it would a cell phone. To do so you'd have to very skilled in magical tracer spells to use this item's signal to find some one. It's also harder to tap.
The only catch was there was not texting, taking photos, and of course you need the other person you are to contacting had to have on too.
Other than that it was a very useful magical device.
"I thought this be better then a cell phone that all my students seem to be using these days" Sun said.
"Technology always gets the attention of the young easily" LS admitted.
With Sun finishing telling LS what she came there to say and giving him advice on teenagers and left awaiting the fateful day she'd be called to help her two friends with the huntsclan.
Taking Sun's advice LS shorted his sessions and gave Jake time to calm down when the boy got frustrated.
Summer came to an end and school came back into session.
It was the fist day of school and the four was now starting 8th grade and that allowed them to take two elective classes.
"So as long as we take the same electives it almost grantees that we'll at least have two classes together" Trixie said as they were picking up their class schedules for the year.
"And our electives are." Jake said looking at the schedule "Spanish and magical mythology."
"Can you say easy A" Al said.
"What makes you think it's easy" Trixie asked.
"You and Spud don't know this about me but I happen to be an expert in magic" Al said.
"O cool you're a magician too" Spud said.
"No" Al simply answered.
Jake just rolled his eyes.
They learned the teacher Rotwood was crazy and the class sucked but to bad they were stuck with it.
~At school at last bell~
Jake was still working on fully transforming for over a week he hadn't gotten it fully but he was getting better.
"How's the training going" Sun asked Jake before he left school for the day.
"I've gotten better from were I began" Jake answered. "But I've been at it for a week and it doesn't seem I'm getting as far as I should in that time."
"Well with your first learning to control your chi one day after a week you suddenly got it down" Sun said. "Maybe a week is the magic length."
~Later that day~
Jake was on the roof practicing his transforming. After the fist day Jake went to practicing on his own or more like his grandfather let him practice on his own. Jake had been at it for almost an hour now, he was going to give it one last try before calling it quits for the day.
He focused on the dragon chi flowing through his body, and then willed it to transform his body into that of a dragon. He pictured what kind of dragon he'd look like by adding parts of him he all ready seen in dragon form put together. It was pretty sketchy picture thou.
Jake felt a tingling warm sensation engulf his entire body. He felt it before but it never so fully around his body.
Jake opened his eyes and looked down at himself. His body and limbs were dragon and he could feel his wings and tail. He grabbed a small mirror and looked in for the moment of truth. He looked in it to see a fully dragon head. He finally did it.
But Jake's victory was cut short when a voice behind him exclaimed 'cool'.
