Rath: Hello people seen any demons around h.

Rune: Rath this is no time to be looking for demons. We have a job to do.

KNK: ^-^ That's right Rune. Now Rath be a good little dragon and tell our readers what this is all about.

Rath: Fine. Ahem, we have now started an all out demon hunt and.

KNK and Rune: Raaaaaath.

Rath: Okay, okay I get the point. KNK does not own any of Dragon Knights and hopes that you enjoy the story.

KNK: Thanks.

"Why don't you just butt out Rune. This isn't your business." Said Rath.

"But."

"Why don't you just go away and die or something."

"Fine maybe I will." Said Rune. 'Why does he always do that? I only want to help him.' Thought Rune as he walked, or actually more like stomped, out through the castle gates.

'Man why does he have to confront me now? Things were going just great and he had to go stick his nose into my business.' Thought Rath as he watched Rune leave the gates.

~~~~~~~

Rune finally looked up from his thoughts when he entered the old forest. He had journeyed for a while to get here. It was the one place he could think without disturbances.

He sighed. It would be a while before Rath would talk to him again.

"I guess that I'll just stay here for a while." He said while looking around. The forest had been abandoned by the fairies after multiple attacks from Nadil's demon army had left them almost defenseless.

Rune sat down in one of the taller trees to sleep. It had been a long journey and he was very tired.

'He doesn't know what mistake he is making by letting his guard down.' Thought Fedelta, one of many demons in Nadil's army. 'I shall attack him while he is down.'

Unfortunately for Fedelta, Rune was still awake.

'Man I just can't sleep. I have this feeling that something is about to happen, but I don't know what.'

At that thought Fedelta attacked. Rune swiftly parried the demon's hostile attack.

'Man what did I do to deserve this.' Thought Rune.

"Still awake huh. Well you won't be for long. I hope that you said all your final goodbyes at the Dragon Castle because you will never see them again."

That being said, he launched himself at Rune who, forgetting that they were fighting in a tree, tried to jump out of the way. It would have worked had there been something solid behind him. As it was, he plummeted to the ground below, hitting his head on a root where he landed.

Fedelta didn't fair much better. He managed to knock his head on some of the branches on the way down, he slipped into unconsciousness as he landed on Rune's already unconscious body.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After many hours had passed, Fedelta and Rune awoke, though with major headaches. Seeing that his enemy was still alive, Fedelta went into a fighting stance, wincing at his headache. Right before he attacked though Rune said something that almost made him fall to the ground.

"Hi my name is Rune, I think. Who are you? Is this place your home?" Rune said smiling.

Fedelta looked at Rune to see if he was mocking him. There wasn't a trace of mockery.

"You mean you don't know?" asked Fedelta surprised. "How about the Dragon Tribe do you remember them?"

"The who?" asked Rune puzzled.

'There must be some way I can use this to my advantage.' Thought Fedelta. Suddenly he had an idea.

"Why the Dragon Tribe our mortal enemy. Don't you remember? They attacked you here while you were on your scouting mission. You were lucky that I passed by on my way back. Otherwise they would have killed you. Come lets head back to Nadil's castle and I'll fill you in on everything that you seem to have forgotten. Must be that bump on your head. Now come along."

Rune walked away with Fedelta filling him in on the details of his {ahem} "life".

Neither noticed a small being watching them from the trees.

'Oh no this is terrible. I must inform the Dragon Lord.' With that the little fairy, started the long journey to Lord Lykoulyon's castle hopping to make it in time for the Dragon Tribe to take immediate action.

KNK: Aren't I evil.

Rune: Why the cliffhanger, it wasn't nice to leave our readers hanging like that.

KNK: I know but I just couldn't resist. Hee hee.

Rune: Humph, hey by the way have you seen Rath.

KNK: No have you?

Rune: Nope. He must be demon hunting. 'Goes off to look for Rath.'

KNK: Well that's that. I thought he'd never leave. Not that I want him to. Only when he's acting all high and mighty. 'Pulls a tied up Rath from the closet.' Now there's a good boy. Why don't you tell the nice readers that nice line about reviewing.

Rath: Gulps. Okay people, please review. It not only makes the author happy, but it also keeps her busy so she doesn't think about teasing us. Remember flames are given to me. Although it is nice to strengthen my power, the first contact is always painful.

KNK: Have fun peeps; until next time. ^-^
