Title: The chemistry between Blake and Rose
It was a normal boring morning in math class, we've just started to learn about absolute value, fortunately I'm always one step ahead of the other school's curriculum, just then I had a devastatingly good idea, it involved the help of Huntsgirl, still unknown to me, as well as my powers, so I said to myself under my breath, "Maybe I'll learn something about how to tap my true form's essence, I've felt him inside me, trying to break free... It was strange, really weird." Professor Rotwood looked at me and said, "And here is our volunteer, Skyler, step right up." The professor motioned me to come up, I let out a heavy sigh and went to the front of the room, he said in a demented way, "Thank you Skyler, I was hoping for a more competent volunteer, but you will do for now I suppose." Blake growled and Rotwood pointed to a picture of a capsule, "What is the absolute value of negative one-thousand?" I said with a snotty tone, "You made me get up for this? What a joke, of course the answer is one-thousand." Rotwood shouted, "Wrong... I mean right, I could have swore you were not paying attention, you may sit down Skyler." Rotwood began to bite his nails down to the nubs until Brad raised his hand to another question on the worksheet, he said, "Is the absolute value of one negative one--hey, whats so funny!?" I was laughing my head off at that answer, it was obvious the Brad needed a tutor stat, I said after an uproar of laughter came up, "It is one of course, and I thought your view on others was small, your brain is smaller, hahah!" Everyone laughed and Brad got angry, he looked like he wanted to punch me out, but he knew he'd have to wait till after school so he decided to practice punching during gym class, I ran 20 laps in 15 minutes, then took a brake with my pals Jake and Rose who were sitting a distance from me after finding out that I'm Zypher, it is hard to deal with in my mind as well, three identities instead of one, I should just pick one and stick with it! A bell sounded, apparently they were having a fire drill, and what stunning convenience that we are always instructed to go out to the dewy gym field when a fire breaks out in the school, today the grass was frosty however, "Winter chill, doesn't it just do miraculous things?" I stood next to Rose and Jake, Jake didn't notice me, but I swear on my life that Rose was paying attention to me, but who knows why, maybe it's just me, "Rose? Would you stop looking at me like that, C`Mon." She turned away, but when I turned around she was looking at me again, she said, "Why don't you, me and Jake meet after school, we could go out for a bite to eat and stuff." I waved my hand and said, "Sorry, I've got more important things to deal with, like fighting Brad after school and some other things I'm not inclined to say." Rose rolled her eyes and hugged Jake, I was jealous, I wanted someone to hug as well, it's lonely being me. Just then Brad came over and said, "So you gonna back down before I pummel you into the ground?" I stared at Brad evilly and I said to him, "You've got a lot of nerve thinking someone of my stature would back down to someone like you, you probably say that because you don't wanna get knocked out, sorry, but your prescription for pain will commence when the last bell tolls!" I smiled at Brad evilly and Rose was looking at me again, like she never knew I was tough like this, so I said, "I don't take nothing from nobody, especially Brad, he's a creep!" Suddenly all the students and Professor Rotwood nodded in agreement with that I said, "Everyone but his fans that is," But they left along with Brad because it was time to go back inside. Later in music class I jammed out on a guitar and gave a little performance as well, all the girls were looking at me like I'm some kind of hot-shot or something like that, I just ignored their comments though because their love isn't genuine. Just then the last bell of the day had rung, Brad was already ready for me, but I was sure gonna surprise him, little did I know what would be the outcome of the fight, I appeared in the parking lot, in the middle of the ring of spectators, Jake, Trixie, Spud and Rose were there too watching, I said smiling evilly again, "You can back down now, to save yourself the humility in front of a crowd!" Brad said back with a bit of fear in his voice, "I back down from no one." I removed my jacket and placed it beside me, "Well then what are you waiting for, Christmas? It's go time, little man!" Meaning I'm stronger then him, and that is true because I'm quite buff. Brad lunged at me with a seemingly hard to miss punch but missed me, "Focus you fool, it takes focus to land a punch, you'd know that if you were as good as me!" I lunged at him with a punch and hit him on the shoulder lightly, it was obvious that he was afraid of me, though he didn't admit it, he screamed like a girl and ran away, I laughed, "Never call yourself tough again! What a waste of effort, next time anyone wants to fight it WILL hurt a lot afterwords, trust me." I put my jacket back on and the ring of spectators opened for me, I walked away, I was heading home. Wandering around the city, wondering just what I should do next, I see Jake and I wonder whats up, so I decide to follow him, turns out he was going to visit his grandfather's place, I didn't want to intrude, well not in this fashion anyways, so I walk away and then she appeared, it was Huntsgirl, she yelled at me, "Skyler, so we meet again, are you prepared to join Us?" I laughed and said, "I've decided..." Huntsgirl looked at me and she said in confusion, not knowing much about the enigma that is me, "Decided what?" I held my hand out to her and said, "I've decided that I'll join you in taking down the American Dragon so long as you provide me with the proper payments, you do know what I mean, do you not?" Huntsgirl knew exactly what I meant, she said commandingly, "Fine, your offer will be taken into consideration, let's go then." So she lead me away, far away to a chain of warehouses, filled with bounty hunters and other men and women of that sort, she led me to the very last warehouse, there was a cage inside, then I saw her, my mom. She looked fine, she said to Huntsgirl, "Go away!" She shrieked, but Huntsgirl told her the whole story about me, she was so surprised that she could hardly stop crying with joy, neither could I when Huntsgirl let her free. "I have a soft spot for you Skyler, your son is promising to help us out, you may go when he is finished talking to you." He held mom's hand and asked her, "Tell me mom, who am I? What am I? How do I use my powers?" She smiled and said, "Your anger is the key to that which locks your true form, you can freely switch whenever you want." I let go of her hand and said smiling with happiness, not evil, "Thank you mom, please go before Huntsgirl changes her mind." I hugged mom and she walked away, she waved and I would not stop crying, I love my mom so much. "H-Huntsgirl, please don't tell anyone about this... My crying, it's humiliating for me." She wiped my tears and said, "It's alright Blake, just calm down." I could see that Huntsgirl cares for me, so I locked my arms around her and said, "I'm sorry Huntsgirl, for that whole fight thing back at the museum, I really like you a lot." She said back holding me in her arms, "Thats alright you know, you didn't even know me then, just forget about that little thing." I got up and stopped being emotional, "No more sappiness, at least not here anyways, let's go Huntsgirl." I lead her out of the warehouse, I closed the door when she got out, she smiled warmly at me and I blushed a little, feeling loved for the first time, it's great! The very next day Professor Rotwood asked me to step up, so I did with no sighs because I was happy to be in school, Rose was sitting next to me, "Okay Blake, whats the name of the creature that was part-human and part-bird?" I ansered confedantly, "A harpie, I collect gamming cards so I know a thing or two about the beauty of harpies." Rotwood couldn't resist laughing at me, soon the whole class (exept Rose) was laughing at me untill Rose said, "Enough, stop laughing at Blake right now!" She seemed to be standing up for me, thats kinda cute, so Rotwood and the rest of the class resumed talking about harpies but I was lost in Rose's eyes. Rose looked like she was thinking about something, I didn't know what exactly. "Maybe I should be with Blake... I mean he looks at me the same way Jake does, but Blake is around me more then he knows, he dosn't even know that I'm Huntsgirl yet." She looked into my eyes, too like she was thinking about me, maybe Rose does love me... Later when the lunch bell rang, Rose invited me to sit with her durring lunch, I exepted her offer and sat with her, I braught bag lunch, can't handle the raidioactive food the lunch ladies serve, "I had a funny idea durring Rotwood's class about a new kind of amusment park, it's called Lunch Lady Land, ride the twhirling soup-cups filled with gross soup or test your skills in the guess that horrible smelling food is game blindfolded, winner gets a free lunch from the lunch ladies." Rose laughed her head off practicly, she really digs my humour a lot. Jake looked over and saw Rose laughing, he was getting a little jelous of me, he came over and said to Rose, "Hey Rose, wanna come sit with me?" Looked at Rose and she said, "Sorry Jake... I don't want to, I promised Blake I'd sit with him." Jake looked a little worried about this, he looked like he was about to explode in the next face of the unfortunate soul to cross his path. I smiled warmly at Rose and said, "So whats up with the whole getting closer to me thing? Do you love me or something Rose?" She held my hand and said sitting right next to me with her head on my shoulder, "You tell me." I smilled a toothy grin, blushing wildly and almost fainted for a moment, "Yes you do, I love you too." Jake heard it all with his dragon ears, he could not beleave that she'd turn on him like that, he began to think if it was his fault for not being around for her enough, he looked kinda down. When the bell rang to go back to class me and Rose were walking down the hall holding hands, she seemed really happy to be with me, and I was very happy to be wih her, we both arrived and sat in Rotwood's class next to eachother. "Okay class, today we will assign lab partners, please choose wisely." Rose chose me, Spud chose Trixie and when no one was left to buddy up with Jake he got stuck with that lackwit Brad, Rose and I were great together, we completed our soda project, yes soda project, Professor Rotwood wanted to teach us about combining eliments together so he figured soda was the best way to go. Rotwood tested all of the small samples, he was most pleased with mine and Rose's, we both got 100% on the lab project. "You two made wonderful soda." I pointed to a whole leiter bottle full, Rotwood took it and was extremely happy because he loved the soda so much. When the last bell rang me, Rose and Jake walked out of class, Rose pulled Jake aside and said, "Jake... I'm sorry to do this but I'm kind of... Leaving you..." Jake looked horrified to hear those words, then Rose said, "It's not you, it's Blake, he is so much more available then you are to be with me and I feel more of a connection with him then I do with you..." Then I linked arms with Rose and we walked away together, Jake looked sad, very sad, but who cares, I'm with Rose now, woo! "So Rose, what are your pans for this evening... I was kinda hoping we could have a coffee at the cyber cafe in town, what do ya say?" rose smiled at me and said, "I have different pans, want to come back to my house, my uncle was interested in meeting you." I was a little uncomfortable by that, but maybe he's nice. "Sure, I see no issues with that." Trixie and spud patted Jake on the shoulder, Trixie asked Jake, "Whats wrong Jake, why do you look like someone just steeped on your tail?" Jake sighed and said, "Rose has just left me... For that new guy, Blake, or Zypher or whoever he is." Spud said patting Jake on the back, "She's Huntsgirl, man, she's not right for you anyways, no matter how much she loved you." Jake looked up and said, "No, no, no, I don't wanna lose Rose, I can't let Blake do this, he's probably only in it for the weapons that the Huntsclan has, he's just a power-hungry jerk." Trixie could see the rage in Jake's eyes, she and Spud stepped away from him for a moment. Meanwhile Rose had brought me to her home, I sat on a couch and said, "Wow, this is really comfy." She sat on the couch next to me and said, "My uncle will be coming out soon, he's just getting dressed up for this occasion." As if by cue Huntsman entered the room, I was kinda afraid and I yelped, "Look out Rose, a monster!" Huntsman extended his hand twards me, open-palmed and said, "So your the gryphon boy? Mmm, Rose has told me a lto about you, Blake is it?" Blake nodded, "Yes sir, but can I was who you are?" He said back to me after a laugh, "You may refer to me as Huntsman, it seems you have the same objective we have... To destroy the American Dragon, is that not so?" I nodded, he patted me on the head and said, "Will you join us then? You seem to have high potential." I smiled and said, "That dragon ruined my hist, to steal the rod of Atlantis, GWAH, and I was so close I could taste it!" Huntsman looked at me and asked me, "So that was you? I'm impressed by the quantity of things you took from the museum itself." I laughed evilly and said, "Well when your a thief from the beginning you learn a thing or two about being quick and not getting spotted." Huntsman showed me a spear weapon and tried to give it to me, but I declined the offer, I said, "Sir, I fight with my fists, I think weapons are for cowards, no offense or anything, just my way of going about things." He nodded his head, "You are defiantly fit for the job we are about to hand you, Huntsgirl!" Rose said in reaction, "Yes sir?" I was surprised to find out Rose is Huntsgirl, guess she is like me, full of surprises. Huntsman said with a smile, but we could not see it, "You will go with our new hunter and make sure to slay the dragons, we don't need them in the way again, not this time." I raised my hand and said, "One more thing, you must steal me some ancient scrolls for the Chinese History Museum in China, I need those scrolls to finish my report on the two classes of people and animals." Huntsman smiled evilly and said, "I'll send someone by to pick them up then..." Rose went and got dressed, Huntsman handed me a ninja suit, I put it on in a bathroom and came back quickly, Huntsgirl was happy to see me in costume, Huntsman asked me, "Do you shape shift yet Blake?" I shook my head and said, "I have to be thrown into a rage to become the creature that I am, then I can shift freely as I so please." Huntsman wasn't disappointed by this because he liked me as a soldier of darkness, and I liked it, too. Huntsgirl and I ran swiftly and silently through the allies, rooftops and through the trees of the woods untill we came to a mansion that looked abbandoned, moss and vines covered it. "My, my, my... What a big place, never seen a mansion so huge." Huntsgirl looked at me and said, "We are not here to enjoy the sights, we need to get the gauntlet of darkness and light so we can unlock it's hidden powers." I pointed to the house and said, "Looks like we were beat here already." Huntsgirl growled and said, "That dragon always follows me around, we should be able to take him together though." I nodded and looked foreward, "So we going in or what?" Huntsgirl got up and said, "Now, but we should be really quiet so dragon won't find us, the item is hidden in the celler somewhere, but it goes ten stories down so it will be hard to find, guess your great grandfather was paranoid that we'd come for it... He was right!" He grabbed my hand and we walked in together, we were both smiling. We crept down the stairs to the first floor of the basement. Little did Huntsgirl realize that my grunts had already been inside and have it, but I wanted to kiss her, I figure that here would be the best place. "Hey Rose, let's go back, I forgot my grunts were already here, they have it." Huntsgirl looked at me and smiled, "Good job Blake, let's go back to base, Huntsman won;t be back for a while." So she took me back to base and sat on the couch next to me, we both had our masks off, I asked her, "Mmm... Rose?" She looked at me and said, "Yeah Blake." I looked at her for a moment and said, "I was wondering if you would... I dunno..." I felt that Rose was holding my hand, she said to me, "What, come on, want a kiss?" I smilled and nodded, she smiled at me and rested her head on my shoulder, "So is that a yes?" She kissed me on the lips, boy was my face red with the blush... I couldn't even feel my feet. "Yes." I smiled slightly and fainted on the couch, she got up and said tucking me in, "You had a rough day Blake, rest up." She walked away and made herself a sandwitch, just then Huntsman came in holding the gauntlet. Rose shushed him and he went into the kitchen quitely, he laughed silently and said putting it away, "You have a talented new boyfriend, I knew he'd be an acet to our ranks."
It was a normal boring morning in math class, we've just started to learn about absolute value, fortunately I'm always one step ahead of the other school's curriculum, just then I had a devastatingly good idea, it involved the help of Huntsgirl, still unknown to me, as well as my powers, so I said to myself under my breath, "Maybe I'll learn something about how to tap my true form's essence, I've felt him inside me, trying to break free... It was strange, really weird." Professor Rotwood looked at me and said, "And here is our volunteer, Skyler, step right up." The professor motioned me to come up, I let out a heavy sigh and went to the front of the room, he said in a demented way, "Thank you Skyler, I was hoping for a more competent volunteer, but you will do for now I suppose." Blake growled and Rotwood pointed to a picture of a capsule, "What is the absolute value of negative one-thousand?" I said with a snotty tone, "You made me get up for this? What a joke, of course the answer is one-thousand." Rotwood shouted, "Wrong... I mean right, I could have swore you were not paying attention, you may sit down Skyler." Rotwood began to bite his nails down to the nubs until Brad raised his hand to another question on the worksheet, he said, "Is the absolute value of one negative one--hey, whats so funny!?" I was laughing my head off at that answer, it was obvious the Brad needed a tutor stat, I said after an uproar of laughter came up, "It is one of course, and I thought your view on others was small, your brain is smaller, hahah!" Everyone laughed and Brad got angry, he looked like he wanted to punch me out, but he knew he'd have to wait till after school so he decided to practice punching during gym class, I ran 20 laps in 15 minutes, then took a brake with my pals Jake and Rose who were sitting a distance from me after finding out that I'm Zypher, it is hard to deal with in my mind as well, three identities instead of one, I should just pick one and stick with it! A bell sounded, apparently they were having a fire drill, and what stunning convenience that we are always instructed to go out to the dewy gym field when a fire breaks out in the school, today the grass was frosty however, "Winter chill, doesn't it just do miraculous things?" I stood next to Rose and Jake, Jake didn't notice me, but I swear on my life that Rose was paying attention to me, but who knows why, maybe it's just me, "Rose? Would you stop looking at me like that, C`Mon." She turned away, but when I turned around she was looking at me again, she said, "Why don't you, me and Jake meet after school, we could go out for a bite to eat and stuff." I waved my hand and said, "Sorry, I've got more important things to deal with, like fighting Brad after school and some other things I'm not inclined to say." Rose rolled her eyes and hugged Jake, I was jealous, I wanted someone to hug as well, it's lonely being me. Just then Brad came over and said, "So you gonna back down before I pummel you into the ground?" I stared at Brad evilly and I said to him, "You've got a lot of nerve thinking someone of my stature would back down to someone like you, you probably say that because you don't wanna get knocked out, sorry, but your prescription for pain will commence when the last bell tolls!" I smiled at Brad evilly and Rose was looking at me again, like she never knew I was tough like this, so I said, "I don't take nothing from nobody, especially Brad, he's a creep!" Suddenly all the students and Professor Rotwood nodded in agreement with that I said, "Everyone but his fans that is," But they left along with Brad because it was time to go back inside. Later in music class I jammed out on a guitar and gave a little performance as well, all the girls were looking at me like I'm some kind of hot-shot or something like that, I just ignored their comments though because their love isn't genuine. Just then the last bell of the day had rung, Brad was already ready for me, but I was sure gonna surprise him, little did I know what would be the outcome of the fight, I appeared in the parking lot, in the middle of the ring of spectators, Jake, Trixie, Spud and Rose were there too watching, I said smiling evilly again, "You can back down now, to save yourself the humility in front of a crowd!" Brad said back with a bit of fear in his voice, "I back down from no one." I removed my jacket and placed it beside me, "Well then what are you waiting for, Christmas? It's go time, little man!" Meaning I'm stronger then him, and that is true because I'm quite buff. Brad lunged at me with a seemingly hard to miss punch but missed me, "Focus you fool, it takes focus to land a punch, you'd know that if you were as good as me!" I lunged at him with a punch and hit him on the shoulder lightly, it was obvious that he was afraid of me, though he didn't admit it, he screamed like a girl and ran away, I laughed, "Never call yourself tough again!

I laughed and said, "I've decided..." Huntsgirl looked at me and she said in confusion, not knowing much about the enigma that is me, "Decided what?" I held my hand out to her and said, "I've decided that I'll join you in taking down the American Dragon so long as you provide me with the proper payments, you do know what I mean, do you not?" Huntsgirl knew exactly what I meant, she said commandingly, "Fine, your offer will be taken into consideration, let's go then." So she lead me away, far away to a chain of warehouses, filled with bounty hunters and other men and women of that sort, she led me to the very last warehouse, there was a cage inside, then I saw her, my mom. She looked fine, she said to Huntsgirl, "Go away!" She shrieked, but Huntsgirl told her the whole story about me, she was so surprised that she could hardly stop crying with joy, neither could I when Huntsgirl let her free.

I got up and stopped being emotional, "No more sappiness, at least not here anyways, let's go Huntsgirl." I lead her out of the warehouse, I closed the door when she got out, she smiled warmly at me and I blushed a little, feeling loved for the first time, it's great! The very next day Professor Rotwood asked me to step up, so I did with no sighs because I was happy to be in school, Rose was sitting next to me, "Okay Blake, whats the name of the creature that was part-human and part-bird?" I ansered confedantly, "A harpie, I collect gamming cards so I know a thing or two about the beauty of harpies." Rotwood couldn't resist laughing at me, soon the whole class (exept Rose) was laughing at me untill Rose said, "Enough, stop laughing at Blake right now!" She seemed to be standing up for me, thats kinda cute, so Rotwood and the rest of the class resumed talking about harpies but I was lost in Rose's eyes. Rose looked like she was thinking about something, I didn't know what exactly. "Maybe I should be with Blake...

She looked into my eyes, too like she was thinking about me, maybe Rose does love me... Later when the lunch bell rang, Rose invited me to sit with her durring lunch, I exepted her offer and sat with her, I braught bag lunch, can't handle the raidioactive food the lunch ladies serve, "I had a funny idea durring Rotwood's class about a new kind of amusment park, it's called Lunch Lady Land, ride the twhirling soup-cups filled with gross soup or test your skills in the guess that horrible smelling food is game blindfolded, winner gets a free lunch from the lunch ladies." Rose laughed her head off practicly, she really digs my humour a lot. Jake looked over and saw Rose laughing, he was getting a little jelous of me, he came over and said to Rose, "Hey Rose, wanna come sit with me?" Looked at Rose and she said, "Sorry Jake... I don't want to, I promised Blake I'd sit with him." Jake looked a little worried about this, he looked like he was about to explode in the next face of the unfortunate soul to cross his path.

When the bell rang to go back to class me and Rose were walking down the hall holding hands, she seemed really happy to be with me, and I was very happy to be wih her, we both arrived and sat in Rotwood's class next to eachother. "Okay class, today we will assign lab partners, please choose wisely." Rose chose me, Spud chose Trixie and when no one was left to buddy up with Jake he got stuck with that lackwit Brad, Rose and I were great together, we completed our soda project, yes soda project, Professor Rotwood wanted to teach us about combining eliments together so he figured soda was the best way to go. Rotwood tested all of the small samples, he was most pleased with mine and Rose's, we both got 100% on the lab project. "You two made wonderful soda." I pointed to a whole leiter bottle full, Rotwood took it and was extremely happy because he loved the soda so much. When the last bell rang me, Rose and Jake walked out of class, Rose pulled Jake aside and said, "Jake... I'm sorry to do this but I'm kind of... Leaving you..."

Then I linked arms with Rose and we walked away together, Jake looked sad, very sad, but who cares, I'm with Rose now, woo! "So Rose, what are your pans for this evening... I was kinda hoping we could have a coffee at the cyber cafe in town, what do ya say?" rose smiled at me and said, "I have different pans, want to come back to my house, my uncle was interested in meeting you." I was a little uncomfortable by that, but maybe he's nice. "Sure, I see no issues with that." Trixie and spud patted Jake on the shoulder, Trixie asked Jake, "Whats wrong Jake, why do you look like someone just steeped on your tail?" Jake sighed and said, "Rose has just left me... For that new guy, Blake, or Zypher or whoever he is." Spud said patting Jake on the back, "She's Huntsgirl, man, she's not right for you anyways, no matter how much she loved you." Jake looked up and said, "No, no, no, I don't wanna lose Rose, I can't let Blake do this, he's probably only in it for the weapons that the Huntsclan has, he's just a power-hungry jerk." Trixie could see the rage in Jake's eyes, she and Spud stepped away from him for a moment. Meanwhile Rose had brought me to her home, I sat on a couch and said, "Wow, this is really comfy." She sat on the couch next to me and said, "My uncle will be coming out soon, he's just getting dressed up for this occasion." As if by cue Huntsman entered the room, I was kinda afraid and I yelped, "Look out Rose, a monster!" Huntsman extended his hand twards me, open-palmed and said, "So your the gryphon boy? Mmm, Rose has told me a lto about you, Blake is it?" Blake nodded, "Yes sir, but can I was who you are?" He said back to me after a laugh, "You may refer to me as Huntsman, it seems you have the same objective we have... To destroy the American Dragon, is that not so?" I nodded, he patted me on the head and said, "Will you join us then? You seem to have high potential." I smiled and said, "That dragon ruined my hist, to steal the rod of Atlantis, GWAH, and I was so close I could taste it!" Huntsman looked at me and asked me, "So that was you? I'm impressed by the quantity of things you took from the museum itself." I laughed evilly and said, "Well when your a thief from the beginning you learn a thing or two about being quick and not getting spotted." Huntsman showed me a spear weapon and tried to give it to me, but I declined the offer, I said, "Sir, I fight with my fists, I think weapons are for cowards, no offense or anything, just my way of going about things." He nodded his head, "You are defiantly fit for the job we are about to hand you, Huntsgirl!" Rose said in reaction, "Yes sir?" I was surprised to find out Rose is Huntsgirl, guess she is like me, full of surprises. Huntsman said with a smile, but we could not see it, "You will go with our new hunter and make sure to slay the dragons, we don't need them in the way again, not this time." I raised my hand and said, "One more thing, you must steal me some ancient scrolls for the Chinese History Museum in China, I need those scrolls to finish my report on the two classes of people and animals." Huntsman smiled evilly and said, "I'll send someone by to pick them up then..." Rose went and got dressed, Huntsman handed me a ninja suit, I put it on in a bathroom and came back quickly, Huntsgirl was happy to see me in costume, Huntsman asked me, "Do you shape shift yet Blake?" I shook my head and said, "I have to be thrown into a rage to become the creature that I am, then I can shift freely as I so please." Huntsman wasn't disappointed by this because he liked me as a soldier of darkness, and I liked it, too. Huntsgirl and I ran swiftly and silently through the allies, rooftops and through the trees of the woods untill we came to a mansion that looked abbandoned, moss and vines covered it. "My, my, my... What a big place, never seen a mansion so huge." Huntsgirl looked at me and said, "We are not here to enjoy the sights, we need to get the gauntlet of darkness and light so we can unlock it's hidden powers." I pointed to the house and said, "Looks like we were beat here already." Huntsgirl growled and said, "That dragon always follows me around, we should be able to take him together though." I nodded and looked foreward, "So we going in or what?" Huntsgirl got up and said, "Now, but we should be really quiet so dragon won't find us, the item is hidden in the celler somewhere, but it goes ten stories down so it will be hard to find, guess your great grandfather was paranoid that we'd come for it... He was right!" He grabbed my hand and we walked in together, we were both smiling. We crept down the stairs to the first floor of the basement. Little did Huntsgirl realize that my grunts had already been inside and have it, but I wanted to kiss her, I figure that here would be the best place. "Hey Rose, let's go back, I forgot my grunts were already here, they have it." Huntsgirl looked at me and smiled, "Good job Blake, let's go back to base, Huntsman won;t be back for a while." So she took me back to base and sat on the couch next to me, we both had our masks off, I asked her, "Mmm... Rose?" She looked at me and said, "Yeah Blake." I looked at her for a moment and said, "I was wondering if you would... I dunno..." I felt that Rose was holding my hand, she said to me, "What, come on, want a kiss?" I smilled and nodded, she smiled at me and rested her head on my shoulder, "So is that a yes?" She kissed me on the lips, boy was my face red with the blush... I couldn't even feel my feet. "Yes." I smiled slightly and fainted on the couch, she got up and said tucking me in, "You had a rough day Blake, rest up." She walked away and made herself a sandwitch, just then Huntsman came in holding the gauntlet. Rose shushed him and he went into the kitchen quitely, he laughed silently and said putting it away, "You have a talented new boyfriend, I knew he'd be an acet to our ranks."
