A

Jake Long is new to town. After the bit of embarrassment at the school. Not only did he make a fool of himself, but he's in summer school to catch up thanks to the dragon council sending him of to this new private school. After a hard day, Jake decides to try hanging out around town once all his classes were done for the day. Dressed in his street clothes rather than the school uniform, he heads down the street on his skate board. He ollies up and grinds across the back of a bench downtown and turns down another street. Getting used to the the city from ground level seems like a good idea. He travels around the city for the day, just checking out the sights and people.

He does wonder if he'll run into a classmate or someone else while he's out. He wouldn't admit it out loud but some new friends would help him feel better about this whole being on his own thing.

Dragon Fire, Jake's new dragon persona, was out that night. He had to slip out of the window in his dorm. Luckily the council had arranged for him to have a room of his own. One nice thing but it didn't help with the loneliness. He shook it off as he climbed into the roof and transformed. He tired the mask around his face, put on the arm bands and shorts, and took off.

He found it a little funny he was using his once wrestler name as a hero name but it would work better than just being the American Dragon. Might get less attention from some of the local magical community. It was safer that way.

The red and yellow dragon flew over the city, taking it all in from above. This place was big, like New York, but it was still different. Homesickness hit him again and he stopped on top of a water tower on a rooftop. He sighed as he sat there for a moment. It was kind of hard to pumped as a hero when he kept thinking about home.

"You gotta pull it together, Amdrag. You'll be fine. Besides, new city, new friends. No Rotwood. Yeah. Think positive." He grinned and took off again, looking for any trouble that might be around tonight. Hopefully he could make a name for himself his first night. That would be awesome.

Dragon Fire wasn't the only red thing out enjoying the night air. Ben was in Jetray form, cruising about and keeping an eye on the city. He didn't want to think about how school was coming up.

Nope.

Not gonna think about that at all.

...Okay, he was totally thinking about it and worrying about it. Not cool.

Dragon Fire was used to being the only thing in the air, especially the only red thing. When he spots something else cruising along further ahead, he can't help but be interested. The dragon flew faster and ducked under Jetray and flew up in front of him. Dragon Fire came to a stop and used his wings to stay floating in place.

"Going somewhere?" He asked the other...thing. He wasn't sure what it was. Looked like a stingray, just uglier and it was flying. Magical creature, maybe?

"Uh...just running some patrols is all," Ben responded. He'd never seen anything else red and flying in the air. "What about you?"

He also pulled into a hover, the watch's symbol on his chest on full display. If Dragon Fire had been watching the newspapers, he would recognize that symbol on a variety of aliens who were allies of the Omegafriends.

Jake hadn't been watching the news. That was usually his Gramps thing. Jake did noticed the symbol and stared for a second. Weird. Was it a talisman or something? He'd ask later. At least this thing could talk.

"Same here. Quite night, huh? I just got to town. Name's Dragon Fire. What's yours?"

"Jetray. Well, in this form it's Jetray," Ben said, correcting himself almost immediately. "I mostly go by..." Cringing. One of these days he'd be able to say it without wanting to hide, but for right now, it was just embarrassing. "...Ben 10."

No trouble yet. But he would definitely see something out of the ordinary tonight. Scaler was soaring over the city in his Doozum form with a similar idea in mind. He was bored though, so having broken off his patrol he was practicing aerial maneuvers, turning and twisting in midair.

The dragon didn't miss a second thing flying in the air with him. He watched the weird creature moving around in the air. What was it doing? Dancing? Whatever it was, Jake flew toward it. If it thought it was hot stuff, wait until it caught a glimpse at him. He turned and flew through the air around it, pulling off a loop around the Doozum before he flew over it.

"Nice moves. Too bad mine are better."

Amazon turns into a bipedal lizard-thing. You'd think he'd be more okay with other giant lizard-type things flying around. But no, the loincloth-wearing jungle man is a little freaked out by Jake's appearance, so much so that he's taken his own lizard-man form and is running after Jake.

"Giiiiiiiiii!" That high-pitched noise he's making is a cry of challenge, even if it sounds weird.

Jake heard the cry before he saw the reptile. He turned in the air and looked down at the thing. If that wasn't a magical creature, he didn't know what was. He floated down and raised his claws up, trying to show he didn't mean any harm.

"Whoa there, big guy. You alright? What's with the screaming?"

Oh. Wait a second. Maybe this guy didn't want to fight and wasn't a monster out to rampage like Amazon had thought he was. Oops. "No fight?" The lizardman seems a bit uncertain, and the way he's speaking suggests that he's not really that used to speaking at all.

Well that was new. Jake shook his head and stopped down to the ground. He stayed a few feet away from the lizardman. No reason to get all close and spook him. He wasn't sure what magical creature this was, but it was better to play it safe. He knew that much.

"No fight. I'm just trying around. I'm a hero. Me hero. What about you? You hero too?"

"Amazon good guy." He thumps his chest. "Fight evil. Protect." He regarded the dragon curiously, but he was content enough to talk for now.
