Chapter 4: Old Friends
Matt ran passed Amber chasing his newest student. Amber just turned of the book she was reading. The dragon was one hundred years old and enjoyed give Matt a hard time. She had short black hair and scales and brown eyes. She ran into a room and just as Matt was entering slammed the door on his face. He swore out loud.
"Courtney, you get out here now," he demanded.
Amber heard Courtney give him the raspberry. Amber held back a chuckle and continued to read.
"I mean it young lady."
"Go jump off a bridge," Courtney said through the door.
Matt's face turned red. Amber held back another chuckle.
"If you don't come out of there then I'm coming in."
Matt got ready to break down the bathroom door when a knock sounded at the front door. Amber looked up from her book. The knock came again.
"I'll get it Matt. You just go on destroying the house. It's already ran down anyway," Amber said setting her book aside.
"And what's that suppose to mean?"
"What's what suppose to mean?" said Amber playing it dumb.
"Just answer the door," he hissed.
Amber did just that and was surprised to Yusuke, Kurama, Kuwabara, and Hiei.
"Hey along time no see," said Yusuke as Amber stepped back to let them in.
"What's all that yelling for?" asked Kuwabara.
Amber led them to the living room. She sat in the chair she'd been sitting in.
"Courtney's giving Matt a hard time."
"Who's Courtney?" asked Kurama.
"She Matt's new student. He's trains new dragons theses days."
They heard a big splash followed by more swearing. Amber held in that same chuckle. Matt came around the corner dripping from head to toe. Amber finely gave into the chuckle and busted out laughing.
"Oh, ahahah," Matt mutter as he walked passed.
Amber wiped a tear from her eye.
"You know," she said in between breaths, "you catch more with sugar and vinegar."
Matt glare at Amber so she took a deep breath and held it until the chuckles were gone.
"If you're nice maybe she'll stop giving you a hard time."
"Ok then miss smarty pants let see you try."
Amber got up.
"Don't mind if I do."
She started for the back rooms and saw Courtney duck into one of the three bedrooms. Amber walked into the room and a pillow hit her in the face. Amber spit out the feather the pillow had leaked all over her. She then looked around the dark room. She walked over to the dresser and picked up rock that sat there. What are rocks doing in Courtney's room, she wondered. Amber's ears twitched and in one movement, she threw the rock without really meaning to.
"Ouch!" Courtney cried out.
"Ops," Amber said chuckling.
"OPS! That's it! That's you have to say! You hit me with a rock and all you say is ops!"
"My bad."
Courtney glared at Amber.
"You did that on purpose!"
"Not really, but it'll teach you not to have rocks in your room."
Courtney saw red and charged at Amber. Amber stepped out of the way and Courtney ran into the dresser with a thud.
"Lesson One: Think before you act," Amber said, "Thinking the best tool anyone has."
Courtney beared her teeth to show Amber she meant business. She swung her fist at Amber. Amber dodged easily.
"Lesson Two: Don't get a hotheaded in battle. Clam and clear is the way to win."
"Shut up," Courtney said charging Amber again.
Amber punched Courtney hard in the stomach. Courtney hit the wall and fell to the floor. Courtney lifted her head up and her eyes met with Amber's.
"Lesson Three: Respect your elders and teammates. You might be strong individually, and as a team you'll be stronger."
Courtney's head fell down as she passed out. Amber picked her up and placed her in bed. Then went and joined the others.
