Hello! This story was a request by brave kid. It's a good idea, but I understand some will probably think it weird. Of course it's weird, but it's a good weird, so here's the story and enjoy!

The knight stood sleepily keeping guard at the gate. It was one in the morning, and Argit was just waiting for him to drop his guard long enough to get in. He bent over and examined a small pebble on the ground before tossing it to the river on the opposite side of the bridge. This caught the guard's attention.

"What in the world-?" the night walked over to the edge of the bridge and peered down to the fast moving river below. "Huh…nothing. I must be hearing things again…" The guard turned around and there was Argit, already in the act of arching his back and shooting the poisoned quills at the guard.

"Ah. Much better. You can take a nap while I go grab the Space Splitter, or whatever it's called." Argit said, teasingly.

"What did you do to me? You can't do this! Let me go! Leave the artifact alone!" The forever knight struggled to get the words out.

"You'll be fine. You just can't move or wake up for a couple hours." Argit said, clearly enjoying the panicked expression on the knight's face. He walked up to the gate and looked around for a key or something of the sort. He bumped into a large 'rock' which looked suspiciously fake. He lifted up the fake rock covering to find a large keyboard, on which he began to type. "You guys are so weird, with all the primitive armour and the castle and all that, and yet, your weaponry and everything else is way more advanced than anything else found on this puny planet." He had apparently figured out the pass-code by now, as he stopped typing and the gate sunk into the ground to let him in.

Now inside the castle, Argit against the wall in the shadows, it was clear that the artifact he was searching for could be difficult to find. The castle itself was like a maze. There were hundreds of doors and rooms and so many stairs and nothing had a sign. In this particular room alone, there were at least 20 different doors and hallways that could be followed. How in the universe was he supposed to find the artifact in all this?

Argit grinned knowing that, as difficult as it seemed, finding the artifact would not be too difficult. That is, unless, the device he 'found' to find large sources of power decided to break down. He pulled the strange device out of his pocket and flipped the "ON" switch. It beeped and showed small, glowing dots on the screen, some brighter than others. He scrolled around on the screen until he found the brightest dot, to which he grinned. "Found you."

Argit tucked the device away in his pocket and dashed down to the door on the far left. He entered into a room filled with trinkets and artifacts and devices of all sorts. Most from more advanced planets. Rushing to the back of the room, he stopped to face the wall. He felt around the wall for a minute and found a stone that was loose. Pulling it out, he found a very small keyboard, on which he typed the same pass code from before. After doing so, he stepped back and waited, a power hungry gleam in his eye. "Finally! After all these years, I didn't think it would be this easy to get this thing! This Space thingy is going to make me rich!"

Just as Argit was approaching the device, he heard guns cock behind him. Turning around, he put his hands up. "What can I do?" He said in an innocent voice.

"Put your hands up and don't move!" A knight stepped forward and spoke in a deep, booming voice.

"Hmm, let me think….No. How about YOU don't move!" Argit grinned and arched over once more, shooting the quills at the forever knights. He laughed until he saw that some of them had not fallen with the rest.

"Big mistake, rat!" The same knight spoke. He and the remaining conscious knights rose their guns up and aimed them at Argit.

"You don't want to do this." Argit said threateningly. He leapt towards the artifact and grabbed it. "If I've heard right about this thing, It can become a big bomb. And everyone within 5 miles, besides the holder, will be blown to bits." Argit grinned. and lifted up a hand, one finger on a red button.

The forever knights lowered their guns and watched Argit nervously.

Suddenly, behind Argit, the wall broke open to reveal a knight that was clearly of a higher authority. It made Argit jump and he pushed a button on the device he was holding. It began to glow a light blue.

"What have you done?!" The higher knight demanded.

"I- I don't know!" Argit began to press other buttons, trying to turn it off. A tingly sensation took over Argit and he yelped in pain. The device he held looked as though it were breaking apart, but what it did was shed it's shell. Underneath lay a bright colorful shell that clearly did not belong in this world. It broke apart into 5 different pieces and everything around Argit disappeared, and he fell unconscious…..

That's chapter 1! I love cliffhangers! Hope you think it's ok, and the next chapter comes soon! Thank you, again, brave kid, for giving me such an awesome story idea! I'll try and have the next chapter finished soon! Please leave a review, everyone! Tell me if I'm worth reading stories from!
