This is my first Firebreather story so be gentle, and it's based on the movie not the comic. The pairing is Duncan/Kenny but it will also have Belloc/Margaret. There is going to be boy on boy in this story so if you don't like don't read it. I also don't want any comments about how you hate the pairing; I'm not forcing you to read the story.

I do not own Firebreather or any of the characters.

"How are you feeling baby," Margaret asked as she sat down on the side of Duncan's bed, putting a bag of ice on his forehead which quickly started to melt. It was early in the morning, the sun just starting to rise and Margaret had been up nearly all night taking care of Duncan.

"Hot. Really, really hot," Duncan moan, the ice doing little to ease the heat on his body. He had went to Dr. Patel to see if she knew what was wrong with him and she had thought that he had something to do with his fire breathing at first, having him breathe some fire out but it didn't lower his body temperature. He would have gone to his father to see if it was some kind of Kaiju illness but he had been acting strange a few days before and had manage to escape from his cell.

"Just like your father to disappear when I need him the most," he had heard his mother mutter bitterly under her breath. Blitz had sent soldiers out to find him, but unless Belloc wanted to be found they wouldn't find him. Blitz had suggested using Duncan as bait to lure Belloc, or maybe some other Kaiju out of hiding, which just got him slapped in the face by Margaret.

Duncan smiled at that memory, remembering how his mom had slapped Blitz so hard that he fell to the ground and had left a bright red hand mark on his cheek. She then said that anything he did that caused Duncan to get hurt she'd repay to him tenfold. Who knew his mom could be so bad ass?

"I don't know what you're smirking about, but if you're anything like your father it can't be anything good," Margaret said pulling a cooling blanket over him.

"Don't worry mom, the heat is just making me delirious," Duncan said jokingly before sifting around in discomfort, "I'm half dragon, why is this heat bothering me so much?" What was causing his body to heat up? Just last night he sat in an ice filled tub and under five minutes it turned into boiling water.

"I'm not sure sweetie, we still think it may be some kind of Kaiju illness but I'm not even sure if they can get sick," Margaret said, "I'm starting to think there's a connection between this and your fathers weird behavior before he escaped."

Duncan groaned, this heat was killing him and the dreams he's been having of one of his friends lately hasn't been helping the situation much either.

Margaret had gone into the kitchen to get more ice for Duncan when the phone rang; picking it up once she saw it was MEGTAF hoping that it would be Dr. Patel with news about Duncan's condition. She was deeply disappointed when she heard Blitz's voice on the other end. "What is it Barnes," Margaret asked, sighing in annoyance, making it clear that she wasn't in the mood to talk to him right now.

"We've got a possible spotting of Belloc in the desert, so we're going to send someone to check it out," Blitz said. He hoped that if he was Belloc that there would be some trouble that would allow them to open fire on him. Blitz knew that as long as Belloc was still alive Margaret would never consider being with him, so he wanted that monster out of the way. He would deal with Duncan later.

"No, I'll go look for Belloc," Margaret said firmly, "I'll be there in twenty minutes so have a jet and suit ready by the time I'm there."

"Margaret you can't be serious," Blitz yelled, "You could get hurt if you go out there."

"You know pretty damn well that I can take care of myself Barnes," Margaret growled, "I'm also the only one Belloc will listen to and the only person he wouldn't attack. I'm going to be the one that goes to look for him and that's final."

Before Barnes could even argue with her she hanged up the phone and started to get ready. She went back to Duncan's room with some more ice and sat down next to her son, "Sweetie, I need to leave for a while to hunt down your father, do you think you'll be okay by yourself?"

Duncan couldn't help but let out a small laugh at how casually his mom said that, "Don't worry mom, I'll be fine. I'll probably just sleep all day and if it gets worse I can just call Dr. Patel to come check up on me."

"Alright Duncan, I'll see you later and hopefully I'll have captured your father," Margaret said kissing him on the forehead. Just before she left the room she told him she loved in sign language.

"Love you too," Duncan said returning the sign.

Margaret was just about to leave when she remembered something. It was a school day so she went to the phone to call the school to say that Duncan wasn't going to be in today. Once that was done Margaret made one more call.

Kenny was eating his usual breakfast of cold pizza and soda when the sound of the phone ringing made him jump. He wasn't use to people calling him, especially so early in the morning so he answered with a confused hello.

"Good morning Kenny, this is Margaret, Duncan's mother," Margaret said, thinking that for some reason she had to remind him who she was.

"Oh, good morning Ms. Rosenblatt," Kenny said nervously. After the whole ordeal at the dance he couldn't help but uncomfortable around Duncan's mom, "Do you need something; is there something wrong with Duncan?"

"Well it seems Duncan has gotten sick and I have some business to take care of, so I was wondering if you would bring him his homework assignments," Margaret asked.

"Sure, no problem Ms. Rosenblatt," Kenny said, "And since Duncan and I have most of our classes together I can copy my notes for him too."

"That's very sweet of you Kenny," Margaret said, "If Duncan seems too hot just put a bag of ice on his forehead, and if he's hungry the coal is in the cabinet next to the fridge. Thanks Kenny, bye"

Kenny sighed, running a hand through his hair. After the dance things have been weird between him and Duncan. Even though Duncan said he wasn't angry with him Kenny couldn't help but feel there was tension between them. And lately it seems that there's even more tension between them. Kenny was being tense because of dreams he's been having lately, but he wasn't sure what was causing Duncan to act so tense.

After he was done with breakfast he watched TV while trying to finish off some of his homework. He had a feeling that today wasn't going to go that well. Ever since he became friends with Duncan people have stopped picking on him. Of course he did occasionally hear people call trailer trash under their breaths but he did his best to not let it bother him. After all, he was use to it.

However whenever Duncan heard them he'd glare and growl at them, instantly making them shut up. He'd tell Duncan thanks quietly, keeping his head down since he always blushed. Kenny never read it the wrong way, he knew the only reason Duncan did it is because he was picked on for being different and must hate seeing the same thing happen to a friend.

He honestly didn't feel like he deserved Duncan's friendship after what happened at the dance. He revealed Duncan's secret out of jealousy, over a girl he didn't even have a crush on anymore. Isabel still seemed to like Duncan but he either didn't notice or pretended not to notice.

Once Kenny had finished his homework he washed up in the sink then slipped on a shirt and his hoodie. He gathered up his stuff for school and headed out the door, hoping the day wouldn't be too bad without Duncan.

After Barnes had graduated high school he joined MEGTAF. A lot of his ancestors had hunted Kaiju, so to him it only made sense that he joined an organization that fought them, and he was also hoping he could impress his high school crush Margaret.

He had never liked Kaiju, so you could imagine how upset he was when he found out that the girl he had been in love with all through high school became the mate of their king, Belloc. At first Barnes had reasoned that she only did it to save everyone, but when he saw them together he could easily see how much Margaret loved Belloc by the way she looked at him. Sometimes he thought he saw Belloc looking at Margaret the same way, but that was impossible. Belloc was a monster and monsters didn't fall in love.

Four months after Belloc came he left again, bringing the other Kaiju with him to go into hiding. He hadn't seen much of Margaret after that, only seeing her again when she went to talk to her friend Dr. Patel, the two of them having been roommates in college. A few days later they all received some shocking news.

Margaret was pregnant with Belloc's child.

No one thought it could be possible, not thinking that a human and Kaiju could breed together and weren't sure how they were able to breed in the first place. Barnes suggested, for Margaret's safety and well being, that the pregnancy should be terminated. That caused Margaret punch him, giving him a broken nose and a concussion after his head hit the floor.

Barnes had been expecting the baby to be an ugly little monster but was surprised to find that the baby looked normal, except for the orange skin and some scales. Duncan had looked innocent baby, but he knew it was only a matter of time before his Kaiju side took over. Of course he stopped saying that around Margaret because she'd always hit him, but at least she stopped hitting him whenever he asked her out. She'd act like she no longer loved Belloc, but he knew that she was waiting for him to come back.

"Margaret, I still don't think you should go alone," Barnes said following Margaret to the jet, "You should let me go with you."

"This is not up for discussion Barnes," Margaret said sternly, putting on an armored suit, "I'm going alone, anyone else would just get in my way."

"Duncan defiantly get's his hardheadedness from you," Barnes said, growling in frustration, "What are you going to do if you even find him?" He didn't like the idea of Margaret being alone with Belloc, especially since the result from the last time they were alone was Duncan.

"I'm going to talk to him," Margaret said simply, climbing into the jet, "And if I find you or anyone else following me I'll shoot them down."

Barnes had a feeling that was more of a promise than a threat.

Margaret had been flying around the desert for over two hours, following a path of scorch marks and claw marks. If Margaret wasn't worried before she was now. Belloc was always careful to cover his tracks when he knew people were looking for him so there must be something wrong with him if he was being so careless.

When the trail seemed to end Margaret decided to land the jet to look around. She knew that Belloc was capable of escaping any time he wanted, but the question is why he chose now to escape. She knew it must have something to do with the way he had been acting, but he seemed like he was sick, not like he was plotting something.

"If I was a hundred twenty foot dragon where would I hide," Margaret wondered out loud, "But I guess the better question would be where I could hide." She continued to walk through the desert she felt a slight burning on her chest. She got her necklace out of her armor and saw that the gem was glowing. When it started to glow brighter Margaret felt the ground start to move. A few yards away the ground opened up and revealed a secret entrance.

'Well that doesn't look suspicious,' Margaret thought walking down, 'I guess this is where Belloc has been hiding for the past 16 years.' Despite the negative thoughts Margaret quickly found herself smiling when she saw where she was. It was the crystal caves Belloc had taken her when he was courting her. It was also the place he had given her the gem and where they made love for the first time.

Margaret froze up when she heard the footsteps of someone walking up behind her. When they placed a hand on her shoulder she spun around to punch them but they easily caught her fist. Her eyes widen when she saw a familiar tall muscular man with red skin covered in scales. He had black hair with pointy ears poking out of them along with white horns and spikes coming out of his back.

"Belloc?"

A nervous Kenny walked up to Duncan's house, kind of wishing that he had accepted Isabel's offer to come with him so she could have broken up any possible awkward moments between him and Duncan. Jenna had wanted to come too, but she had a student council meeting. She gave Kenny her notes from their science class to give to Duncan, saying that he'd be better off using her notes rather than Kenny's. Even though she acted nice, Kenny could tell Jenna didn't think very highly of him.

He rang the doorbell a few times before just letting himself in, figuring Duncan couldn't answer the door because he was sleeping. Kenny went into Duncan's room and sure enough the dragon boy was fast asleep on his bed but he didn't seem to be a very peaceful sleep since he kept moving around, was moaning and covered in sweat. He felt Duncan's forehead and his eyes widened at how hot he was, he was surprised he didn't burn his hand touching him.

Kenny's hand slid down to Duncan's cheek, surprised at how soft and smooth his skin was. He realized what he was thinking and quickly pulled his hand away. 'I better get some ice for Duncan,' Kenny thought, mostly as an excuse to leave the room. He had only been gone for a minute or two and once he got back he found Duncan sitting up on the bed.

"Hey Duncan, are you alright," Kenny asked walking in, setting the bag of ice on his dresser. Duncan looked up at him but didn't say anything; his eyes were glazed over, a dark green rather than their usual brown. Kenny moved closer to Duncan, trying to snap him out of whatever daze he was in. "Duncan?"

A low growl escaped Duncan's throat as tackled Kenny to the floor and pinned the smaller boy under him. Kenny shut his eyes tightly to prepare for any pain he was going to receive, only for them to open when he felt the dragon boy nuzzling his neck. "Dun…Duncan...What are you do…" he was unable to finish his question since a pair of lips were now pressed against his in a kiss.

Kenny knew that it would have been smarter to push Duncan off of him and try to talk some sense into him. Duncan's actions were probably caused by whatever illness he had. But despite that Kenny couldn't help but wrap his arms around Duncan's neck and return the kiss.
