World of the Dragonlords

Four for Four

There are hundreds of Morg warriors coming into the fortress through the front gate and over on dragon-back. Louie & Jute are watching them through a hidey hole in the wall.

Jute: This is bad, Louie. Very bad! Even worst, Rasmus says these troops are only the beginning of the reinforcements Lord Moraq has ordered. When they all arrive, the Morg army in Toom will consist of 75 Dragonlords and 500 foot soldiers…

Cuts to them in the hidey hole they're in and watching through a crack in the wall.

Jute: …All dedicated to wiping out Brendon's free humans.

Louie: But surely the resistance can do something to sabotage the Morg army?

Jute: Well…

Louie: I mean, that's gotta be the point of all your secret tunnels, right?

Jute: Of course! But not the whole point. You see, resistance slaves are also digging a tunnel underneath the walls of Toom.

Fades to a thought of Brendon, Hintermann & many humans going through an underground tunnel.

Jute VO: When it's finished, Brendon will lead his band of free humans through it…

They get to Rasmus & the rest of the human slave resistance.

Jute VO: …Join up with the resistance…

Brendon barges in on Lord Moraq's chambers.

Jute VO: …And attack the Morg, catching them completely off guard.

Back to reality with Jute & Louie.

Jute: The whole plan was Brendon's idea! Gosh, isn't he wonderful? I've never met him, but I report to him about the tunnel's progress with carrier pigeon.

Louie: Lucky you. If we ducks are just as lucky, we'll find Unca Scrooge & our friends and escape before the battle even starts.

Jute: But listen! I already found out your uncle & friends are in Lord Moraq's fortress, right?

Louie: Yeah.

Jute: Well, finding a safe passage for them out of it will be tricky, but I'll look for one as soon as I take you back to the stables.

They start climbing down a ladder through a secret passage.

Jute: In the meantime, just think of Clarg's fat face when he realizes he'll be taking orders from me.

Just after they leave, 2 Morg warriors on dragon-back are carrying a net with 4 baby dragons in it. Meanwhile, in Lord Moraq's fortress, General Hyrrr takes Launchpad into a room full of weapons.

Hyrrr: General Hyrrr has decided that General Hyrrr's new slave will work in the fortress armory. Now, pay attention! (pushes Launchpad)

Launchpad: Oof!

Hyrrr: This chest contains Morg World's greatest treasure, cut Lightning Stones! Slave's job is to clean the protective tar off of the stones…and then mount the cleaned stones onto the lances. Understand?

Launchpad: Crystal clear, boss.

Hyrrr pulls Launchpad's shirt front close to him.

Hyrrr: General Hyrrr chose slave for the job because slave too stupid to steal weapons! Is this not so?

Launchpad: (Gulps) Ye-yes, boss sir.

Hyrrr: Good. Do not cross Hyrrr, slave! That is not very wise.

Launchpad: D-d-don't you worry, boss. I'll have these stones clean & shiny in no time!

Hyrrr puts him down and is about to leave when…

Launchpad: But…uh…boss?

Hyrrr: Grr…

Launchpad: Would you leave the door open? It's kinda hard to see in the torchlight.

Hyrrr: (Thinks for a minute) Very well. General Hyrrr will grant slave's request.

Hyrrr leaves and Launchpad cleans a Lightning Stone with a cloth.

Launchpad: Hmm… That tar is pretty sticky stuff… But I'm beginning to make a little progress!

Just then, a piece of sunlight hits the Lightning Stone.

Launchpad: Huh?

The Stone begins charging up a lot of electricity.

Launchpad: Uh-oh. (zap) Ouch! (zap) Ouch! (zap) Ouch!

Hyrrr: (Laughs) Slave did not know that sunlight is what charges Lightning Stones.

Launchpad continues getting zapped by the Stone. Elsewhere, in the stables, the Morg warriors are there with the dragons apparently getting abused. Louie watches in pity for the dragons.

Louie thinking: Quackaroonie! The stables have descended into chaos!

Dragon: (Screeching)

He notices one dragon trying to escape a Morg, but he has its reigns. That's when he uses his lightning lance on it!

Dragon: (Shrieks)

It sits on the ground with its head lowered and tears running down its face.

Morg: Stupid beast!

Dragon: (Whimpering)

Louie: Oh, the poor thing.

Louie continues watching in pity, that's when Rasmus comes.

Rasmus: Louie! There you are! Where have you been?

Louie: Jute & I were…

Rasmus: Never mind! I don't have time to hear it!

He takes Louie out and leads him somewhere.

Rasmus: As you can see, it's a madhouse around here! The slaves are scared, the new Morg are surly…And Clarg is having an apoplectic fit!

They get to a small barn.

Rasmus: He's ordered me to assign you boys to our latest arrivals.

Louie: Huh? But…

Rasmus: There's no time, no time! Your brothers & friend are in there, they'll explain!

He opens the door, Huey, Dewey & Genie are there with 4 baby dragons shackled to posts, the 2 older boys & girl are chasing off Huey, Dewey & Genie as the smallest one lies on the hay, unconscious.

Dewey: (Coughs)

Meanwhile on Earth, Webby & Tracey finish explaining the disappearance of the boys, Scrooge, Launchpad & Iris to Tracey's folks.

Tracey: And that's what happened.

Dirk: Don't listen to them, Dad & Mom. I know my dumb brother & his friends just ran off somewhere.

Webby: No, Professor, they really did get kidnapped by troll guys on dragons.

Tracey: You have to believe us.

Dad: Well, actually girls, I think Dirk's right.

Mom: You know trolls & dragons don't exist.

Tracey: But Mom…

Dad: Trace, that's enough.

Girls: (Sigh)

The girls go off.

And on a different world, the nephews & Genie are behind a post, trying to figure out a plan.

Huey: We're in big trouble, Louie! Clarg made us personally responsible for these baby dragons!

Dewey: He said they're extremely valuable, and threatened to skin us alive if anything happened to 'em.

Genie: Especially the little one who's not doin' too well.

They point to the flying ones and calling them by the names they chose, first the one with the thinner snout and spitting out fireballs.

Huey: But with "Spitfire" there…

Then the one with the longest tail, spitting out dark gray smoke.

Huey: …And "Smoky" over there…

Then the girl with brown eyes & no name spitting out flames.

Huey: …And the girl right there…

Then the littlest baby with a stout tail & no name, lying in the hay motionless.

Huey: …Won't let us go near their brother.

Dewey: What if he's badly hurt?

Genie: In a way, I don't blame the others for trying to protect him.

Cuts back to the boys.

Huey: Well, one thing's for sure, Clarg will blame us if he dies.

Dewey: If only there was a way to revive him.

Louie: Poor little guy.

Genie: Yeah. Say, when Stuie's dad faints, smelling salts or his fave smell usually revive him.

Louie: Wait…that's it!

He goes over to a basket full of cauliflower & other veggies.

Louie: This cauliflower is pretty smelly. So if I wave it under the unconscious baby's nose…!

Genie: He'd wake up! Louie, you're a genius!

Louie: Well, you mentioning about Stuie's dad gave me the idea, Genie. But that's where you guys come in! You'll distract Spitfire, Smoky & the girl baby.

Boys: (Gulp)

Dewey: Oh brother, the things we do to save our butts.

Genie: I just know I'm gonna regret this.

Spitfire, Smoky & the girl see them coming, Huey distracts Spitfire, Dewey Smoky & Genie the girl as Louie goes to the littlest baby.

Baby: (Sniffs)

He starts waking up some, in a second he's hopping up & down.

Louie: Way to go, boy! it looks like you're gonna be all right!

Baby: (Sniffs)

Louie: Well, except maybe for that runny nose.

Baby: (Slurps Louie)

The other two flutter with joy and cuddle against the other boys.

Huey: I don't believe it, the little monsters we were so afraid of…

Dewey: …Turn out to be nothing but playful little puppies.

Genie: Yeah, they're really cute too.

Huey: Look! Spitfire's a real go-getter!

Dewey Oh yeah? Smoky's… (leaps over Smoky like leapfrog) Oof! Got more muscle.

Louie: Aw, I prefer this little guy.

Baby: (Sniffs)

Louie: I think I'll name him "Sniffles".

The girl dragon is sniffing around in Genie's pocket.

Genie: Huh?

He reaches into it and what's in there reveal to be sugar cubes, the girl baby slurps them right out of his hand.

Genie: Whoa girl. You sure like those sugar cubes I saved. Hey, that's what I'll name ya, "Sugar".

Meanwhile, in the fortress kitchen, the scullery human is telling Jute under the floor in the garbage chute where Scrooge, Iris & Stuie are.

Jute thinking: Great! At last I know the whereabouts of Uncle Scrooge, Stuie & Iris. It's just too bad the only passage I could find is this garbage chute. It's too small to smuggle a full-grown…

Just then, a glass of some kind of drink is thrown at chute Jute is going to.

Moraq: No!

He looks through it, turns out it leads to Lord Moraq's conquer room, General Hyrrr, Scrooge, Sergeant Klorp & Stuie are there as well, with Iris & Erica dancing.

Moraq: Lord Moraq has decided that General Hyrrr nor Sergeant Klorp can welcome the new warriors.

General Hyrrr: But as the highest ranking general in Toom, it is General Hyrrr's privilege to…

Moraq: No! Lord Moraq will personally accept the new warriors Oath of Fealty!

Scrooge takes Moraq's glass and pours more drink from the pitcher into it.

Moraq: Besides, Lord Moraq does not want General Hyrrr to poison more minds with talk of head-on assaults on the humans. Lord Moraq's encirclement strategy is laid, and it will not change! (sips)

Hyrrr: Then what…is left…for General Hyrrr…to command?!

Moraq: Bah! General Hyrrr is not fit to command Morg warriors.

Klorp: How about Sergeant Klorp then?

Moraq: Not Sergeant Klorp either.

Klorp: Grr…

Moraq: (Sips)

Moraq throws away his glass as he walks out the door.

Moraq: But General Hyrrr & Sergeant Klorp have permission to command slaves to clean up this mess!

(Door slams)

Scrooge: General Hyrrr & Sergeant Klorp were right, Lord Moraq is a fool.

Hyrrr: Huh?

Klorp: Really?

Scrooge: Oh sure. (turns to kids, raising eyebrows)

The girls & Stuie catch onto Scrooge's plan and go over the conquer map.

Stuie: Uh yeah, he's right. Just look at what Lord Moraq calls his "Encirclement strategy."

Iris: Now it's true, I don't know the scale of this map, but unless we're talking about an area of only a few new squire miles…

Erica: Moraq would need ten times as many warriors as he'll have to completely encircle the human camp.

Klorp: Ooh.

Stuie: Even if he succeeded, the human rebels are the guerrilla fighters! They could easily sneak through the Morg lines…stage hit-and-run attacks, and disappear back into the forest.

Scrooge: No, the only workable strategy is yours, attack head-on and crush the humans.

Scrooge & Stuie take dish towels and clean up around there as Klorp watches Iris & Erica dance and Hyrrr goes over the conquer map.

Scrooge: (Whistling)

In the garbage chute, Jute is horrified as what's going on.

Jute thinking: (Gasps) Here I finally find the boys' uncle, 2 of their friends also that Erica girl I've been told about…And it turns out they're helping the Morg!

Back in the stables, Huey is picking the lock on Spitfire's shackle.

Huey: Hold still, Spitfire! I'll never get the lock picked with you straining like that.

He eventually gets it.

Huey: Ah! That did it!

He removes the shackle and gets on Spitfire's back.

Huey: Go Spitfire! Go!

The boys are all riding around the barn riding on the baby dragons' backs.

Genie: Wahoo! This is more awesome then hand-gliding!

Huey: WHEEE! This is the most fun ever!

Dewey: You said it! And the best part is…

Louie: That the babies are enjoying it too!

Rasmus peaks in through the door and sees the boys riding the babies.

Rasmus thinking: (Sighs) I was afraid of this, the boys have bonded with their charges. Still, I should let them have their fun while they can. They'll find out soon enough how the Morg train dragons.

To be continued…

Differences:
Novel: There were only 3 baby dragons and the chapter was called "Three for Three". Fic: There is an extra baby whom is a girl.
Also, like I said before, I replaced Clarg's misadventures through Duckburg with Tracey & Webby trying to convince everyone about the Morg kidnapping Uncle Scrooge & the others.
