The only thing I have an issue with is if they are all part of the Huntsclan, the key part of that would be CLAN, as in family. So why you have characters making out, I don't understand. Actually, Clan doesn't always mean family. The Klu Klux Clan weren't a family. They were just a group of horrible people. Clan means family in Scotland and Ireland, but it can also mean group or cult. I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I just wanted to let you know...

What, Writingcat? How can you see that as rude? I thank you for dropping the knowledge. =D

That's actually a very good point! ^_^ I've personally never thought of the Huntsclan being 'blood related', but perhaps they really are! Hm... then that would kinda screw this story up. Not sure what I should do now; I'll try and think of something.

Really, YFWE, you never thought of them as blood related? I always figured since the Huntsmaster was Rose's uncle, that it was a family affair, you know?
You know, just like Jake and his family. He was born into a family with the ability to turn into a dragon. So I only thought it made sense that Rose was born into a family that hunted magical creatures.
And I hope something like that doesn't altered your story completely. I know how if feels to discover a new fact and have to start a story over.

I honestly never did think of it that way. I thought that perhaps that part of the Huntsclan was blood-related, but if there were others around the world, that they weren't related. When they went to Dragon Summit, not all dragons were blood-related there, were they? That was my thinking.

Now see, I never thought of that with the Dragon Summit.
Well then, you don't have to change anything at all if you are going to go with that logic. Just simply go back and add that the Huntsclan members from different parts of the world had come to the Headquarters in Canada.
Tell us where Kayle and Matt are from. That way you can clear up any confusion for those who may have been on the same line of thinking I had been on, YFWE.

1. A traditional social unit in the Scottish Highlands, consisting of a number of families claiming a common ancestor and following the same hereditary chieftain. 2. A division of a tribe tracing descent from a common ancestor. 3. A large group of relatives, friends, or associates.

I guess Clan just has a lot of meanings...I always thought that maybe there were several different original Hunters, then they had their own families, and so on and so on...So in the end, there were Hunting families, but not all the Hunters were exactly related to each other. That probably made no sense, but I can't think of how else to describe it...

I hate to burst evryone's theory bubble but the Huntsclan are related to one another, or at least all share common ancestry. That is why ALL members of the Huntsclan have the dragon BIRTHMARK it is a family trait. This isn't just speculation on my part thoughI was told this by Christian Roman himself several months ago when I asked him some questions about the Huntsclan. Oh another little bit of info the Huntsclan are all the descandants of Saint George the original Dragon Slayer. Of course given that he lived thousands of years ago that would mean that his family line would have spread to include thousands of people by today's time. Plus almost none of them would be closely related they would be like cousins 16 times removed or something. hey just all share him as an ancestor.

Maxpower is right, Orion101, do try to keep up please. Though, you did bring something interesting to the table with the original Dragon Slayer. That's really cool and something I may use later on in a story.
And on a completely different note, WELCOME! =D
Oh, and Maxpower, can't believe you pulled out the dictionary. *Thumbs up*

Well, then I'm sorry that I ever posted this! Jesus, you all take everything too seriously. All I tried to do create a fanfic that came from my heart, something I really tried hard on, and instead it all blows up in my face. For so many months now, I have been reviewing fanfics on this site, and I have found small 'errors' or 'things that don't really make sense.' But you know what I did? I kept quiet and encouraged the writer to continue writing. And what happens here? I just try to write something and instead everyone has to get all technical and put it down because of something I honestly did not think about. I'm sorry I'm not as smart as you all. I'd like to thank those who read this fic and didn't point this out and just lived with the way it was. But this fic is over, I think.
In fact, I think I am tired of writing. I thank those of you who voted me Best Fanfic Writer here at the forums. However, I think it's all over. I've tried to be the best I can be as a writer, and I had a good run. But tonight, my love for writing was pretty much taken away. I tried to write things you all would enjoy... and instead, I made you all think too much. So sorry for that.

What?! No, please, don't listen to us! We're idiots. Please, please, please, oh man, I feel so stupid now. Just continue the story and the writing, we just started about something completely off topic and rambled. That all belonged in a thread somewhere, oh my gosh, please tell me you're joking?

Kev, c'mon man, don't be all like that. So people try to make things logical.. (which is kinda dumb) It's just the way this generation is. I'll make a deal, if they go off-topic again, you stop writing. C'mon dude, you truly are everyone's favorite writer
