It was early in the morning. Drum woke up first. He gazed at his buddy, still asleep, "Sorry Gao," he whispered as he put his Omni Lord armor. He adjusted his helmet and walked outside of the chamber.

He went to the kitchen and eat something. He needed a full stomach for his duel. He would go there to win the battle, not losing everything his grandpa hoped he could do. Something smelt good in the kitchen. He went and saw Gao's mother finishing preparing breakfast, this early? The dragon wondered. He also noticed that it was prepared for only one person.

"Good morning Drum. I prepared something before your duel," she told him.

The red dragon gasped, he was busted, "Please don't tell Gao now."

"It's not my intention. He won't wake up for an hour or two anyway," Suzumi replied as she offering a large meal.

The dragon sat on a chair and devour everything with a satisfied smile, "How do you know?"

"At the hot spring. I opened the door to see if any of you were there and I heard about the duel," she replied. She sat in front of him, "With everything going on, it was best that my son doesn't know about it. He wouldn't let you go alone. If you were in trouble, he couldn't stay there and do nothing."

"Thanks Miss Suzumi and… I'm sorry," he bowed to her.

"No problem. Just make sure win this duel. We are going to have another dragon living under our roof, right?" she asked.

"Yes. That's why I'm going to win this duel. With him, we will be able to stop Yamigedo from destroying the world and accomplishing grandpa Tenbu wish," he climbed off the table and walked towards the exit.

"You better win. We'll make you a special pudding," she said.

The dragon had stars in his eyes, "Pudding!" he raised his claws in the air and went away with his weapon, "Another reason to win!"

He went outside. He turned into his real form and flew towards his destination.

Episode 30: Dragon Duel

A few hours later, a dragon was chuckling as he stood in front of the Mikado house. He was in his SD form, "I am tired of waiting for you Omni Lord," he walked closer to the entrance and continued, "Since you awakened, I have only one thing I mind. That one thing that is eating me inside," he knocked the door and waited for someone to open.

Takashi opened the door. He looked down and asked, "Who's there?"

"You are mine Drum!" he charged inside and ran forward, "I challenge you to a fight Drum!"

Suzumi and Gao said, "Drum's not here."

"Wh-" the dragon tripped and his face slid on the ground until he smashed against a wall, "GYAAAAAAH!"

It took a minute for the guest to recover from that accident.

The new comer was a dragon dark orange scales, long dark blond hair going on his back and his orange fluffy tail. He wore a red loincloth, a silver armor with a green vest and a silver sword attached on his back left on his side. He put his hand on the big bump on his head and grunted, "What do you mean your buddy is not here! I came to fight him and beat his fat tail!"

"Do not speak lightly of Drum," Halberd said as he came down with only a towel around his waist, "And his tail is not fat."

"And don't speak lightly to me like I'm some ingrate child!"

"You are acting like one," Suzumi warned the dragon, "Because you just charged against the wall of our house and lost."

He took his real form and he looked similar to his SD form. The difference was that his white belly was exposed, "I am not some nobody dragon. I am Fifth Omni Cavalry Dragon, Fire Sword Doble!"

Gao eyes shined when he heard that. With the dragon attitude, he still had doubt, "Really?"

"Of course, I am! I've been trained to be a powerful dragon thanks to Tenbu," Doble answered with a large smile.

"Knowing Tenbu, I can believe that," Gao said. The boy presented his family, "And I really don't know where my buddy is. He was gone this morning without any warning."

"W-wait a sec. What do you mean by 'Knowing Tenbu'?"

"You had that smile when he tried to charm the beautiful girls he met," Takashi replied.

"Yup," Hanako answered.

"A pervert smile… was proof I was a Cavalry Dragon," he whined in shame in a corner.

"You sure have a lot of energy Doble," Suzumi let out a small smile, "And it wasn't just for that. That's for the damage on the wall," she sat on a chair, "You just have that aura of someone who wouldn't lie."

"Of course. Tenbu told us that lies is the first step of weakness. Lying to others or ourselves is revealing how weak we are. We must admit our defeat if we want to get stronger," he stood up and all his mini episode of sulking was over, "The only acceptable lies are those that protect the lives of others and ourselves!"

Once that was over, Suzumi gazed at her son and said, "Since Drum is gone for a while, I can tell you why he left you here alone," she raised her finger and began to explain by saying, "He went to duel against Mizaru, another Cavalry Dragon."

"That bastard beat me to it," he clenched his hands. Asking for a duel next was out of the question for the Omni Lord to prove himself. He already won or already failed.

"But-" Gao was about to stand up.

"Gao. It was a duel between them only. You cannot join in. Only Drum knows where it is," his mother sighed, "No needs to worry for him."

The boy nodded, "He is tough," he let out a small smile.

"Since he is gone-" his snout smelt something delicious, "W-what is that?"

"Breakfast. And it's ready," Takashi replied.

The cavalry dragon stomach grumbled loudly. He blushed in shame and gazed at the side.

"Looks like we have another mouth to feed mom."

"Grandma makes the best food of Tokyo!" Hanako declared.

"T-thank you," the red dragon wasn't expecting that. He bowed and followed them in the kitchen.

Drum flew towards where the other dragon challenged him three days ago. He knew the battle would be somewhere the monsters or humans wouldn't go. From the direction he got on the map, it was outside of the city. So, he took his real form to accelerate his pace when he was outside of the human's view.

"From what it said, it should be at the summit of a hill where we can fight all out," he grumbled as he checked on his piece of papers. He sniffed the air and found a stench that stood out a little. He knew he was close to his destination and went towards it.

There was one of the mountains around the city that had its summit without trees and guessed it was the right one. He also noticed that the stench went to that direction. He landed on the ground and saw the dragon waiting for him. That dragon was sitting on the ground and meditating.

Mizaru wore a brown robe with red sash tied with a white robe and red samurai armor pads over his shoulders. He held a claymore in his hand while having a katana holding on his belt, "You did come Drum alone," he continued meditating.

"As you requested. I'm here to begin the duel," the red dragon said.

"We can take our time a little. It is a lovely morning we have. No too hot and not too cold either," the gray dragon commented.

Drum had to agree that it was indeed a lovely day, but he wasn't here for small talk. Still, it was best to honor the wish of the dragon and also sat down, putting his weapon on the ground, it could be a test, "Fine," he gazed at the sky. The blue sky was beautiful this morning and the air was fresher than usual. The warm wind blew on his hair. His mind wandered a little back to when he failed to stop Yamigedo.

"When I gaze at a clear sky like this, I often think of my home," the Cavalry Dragon whispered as he took a deep breath, "Dragon World. I don't know how much it changed since I left you know. I was gone for a very long time. I served Tenbu as my master. Me and my comrades vowed to protect him from any enemies. Alas, we also vowed to respect any of his wishes."

"That you have to accept his decision to… die by Yamigedo?" Drum tried.

Mizaru nodded, "Yes. We never vowed to protect him from himself," he sighed as he scratched the back of his neck, "Drum. Tenbu has many flaws. I'm certain you saw a few of them."

"Grandpa is interested in woman too much, even when they aren't dragons," the red dragon quickly replied with dead pan face.

"Yes. That is one of them," he chuckled as such event he also witnesses himself, "He is also someone who is ready to do anything to correct the wrongs he committed. Whatever it is true or not," he gazed at the other dragon, "As for Yamigedo, it was truly something wrong he did and the consequence are immense. You might not know it yet, but Yamigedo devoured four worlds before he was sealed."

"I saw it in grandpa Tenbu journal. He has such an appetite."

"Infinite appetite. Whatever he eats makes him power powerful and his stomach is an endless void. You haven't see this Fiend true power yet," the gray dragon added.

"W-what do you mean?" Drum asked.

Mizaru stood up and his gaze went towards the other dragon, "This wasn't Yamigedo's final form. You managed to weaken him, but it won't be enough. Tenbu and the other Omni Lords had to face one of his most powerful form. It wasn't easy for him. They are many reasons why it is hard for him," he clenched his hand that held the sword and said, "Only the Omni Lords could stop him, but you have to prove it first. You didn't replace the old one in the traditional way. Tenbu never trained you for years and you are still a teenager."

The XIV chuckled as he raised his weapon, "You're right. I'm still just a brat. However, I am not any brat. There is so much I've overcome," he smiled, "Especially since I came to Earth. Mizaru. I won't back down now. I have so many things to do. I have the wish of grandpa Tenbu on my shoulders. His hopes he offered me along with his trust."

"Can you resist such weight?" the gray dragon asked. He pointed his sword, "I'll test this out now."

"Come at me," Drum put himself in battle stance.

Mizaru was the first who charged and slashed the shoulder of the red dragon. Drum blocked it with his large katana and countered with a kick. The Cavalry Dragon blocked with his leg and chuckled, "Not bad Drum."

The Omni Lord was pushed away and blocked the many attacks coming at him with his large weapon. Their weapons collided and none of they were ready to back down.

As they attacked, the gray dragon chuckled, "Tenbu was the one who personally trained me and the other Cavalry Dragons. Many years of intense and painful training to go beyond what a normal dragon could do. All to stop Yamigedo and his demons," he ducked an attack that close to him and smashed the face of the red dragon, "We also carried the hopes and trusts he gave us. However, he was also carrying our hopes and trust. That is what you must prove! Can you carry my hope and my trust?"

Drum punched his shoulder and sent him away, "I will prove it to you."

The two dragons yelled as they charged at each other's.

Doble happily ate the breakfast without any hesitation.

Halberd watched the dragon and asked, "Why did you come here?"

"I came to-" he gulped his glass of water and replied, "Challenge the new Omni Lord into a duel. However, Mizaru beat me to it," he grumbled, "Now! I have to find anything way to challenge him," he pouted as he happily continued eating, "This is so good!"

"I have to doubt you Doble. You do not feel like someone who would follow an Omni Lord," the buddy of Hanako commented.

The orange dragon grunted, "Want to repeat that again?"

"You know Tenbu Halberd. Such dragon could surely be trained by a womaniser like him you know," Takashi defended the guest.

"H-hey! Why do I feel like this is an insult?" the Cavalry Dragon yelled.

"It's not," the man quickly replied with a small smile on his face.

"We know Tenbu has good eyes to see those who would do the right thing," Suzumi said.

"You are a nice dragon," Hanako added.

"Thank you," he scratched the back of his head a little nervously at the child praise. The praise of a youngling felt more genuine than those of an adult in his mind.

"What kind of challenge would it be then?" the Sun Fighter asked.

Doble grumbled as he thought about it, "I'll find something. Something worthy of me and actiony."

Halberd sighed, "He just wants a good fight. It's not like proving oneself in a battle."

The orange dragon paled at those words, as they were true. He pouted and turned around, "M-maybe! But it's not to really hurt him or anything! We haven't done anything for a long time," he crossed his arms as some thought came back, "Worse yet. We had no choice but to stay on the side when Tenbu died. It was our duty to protect him, but we also had to obey his order," he clenched his fists, "And he let himself get killed for a dragon we never heard about to take his place."

The others were quiet as they gazed back at the picture of the old grandpa dragon.

The cellphone of Gao suddenly rang and he picked it up, "Moshi Moshi. What is it Commander I?"

"-Gao. We got a situation and it might be a demon attacking right now. You are at your home right?-"

"Yes. I'm at home."

"-A demon is attacking a factory right now. It's on fire and it might cause a lot of damage.-"

Doble listened more carefully when he heard the place was one fire, it might be him.

"Where are the others?"

"-They are busy dealing with two other demon attacks. This one seems to be a powerful one while the others were a distraction.-"

"Drum isn't with me. He's busy dueling a Cavalry Dragon," Gao replied.

"-We have no one else right now. Maybe Halberd should-"

The orange dragon squished his face against Gao and yelled, "Hey little human!"

"-Little!-"

"Do you know who the demon is?"

"-Who's that?-" the man grunted.

"I am Fifth Omni Cavalry Dragon, Fire Sword Doble! Now tell who that demon is. Is he a dragon who likes to put anything on fire?"

The voice of Count Damn was heard, "-It's Red Dragon, Igneel Doble.-"

"He's ours!" he turned towards Gao, "Here's my test! You will help me unseal Igneel so I can beat him fair and square!"

"Wh-"

"If you want me to help your buddy and protect him, you can't say no! We freed him from Yamigedo's control, I beat him and I'll recognise Drum as the new Omni Lord. Got a problem with that?"

"…No," the boy replied, "Commander I. We are going right now."

"-I'll send help as soon as I can.-"

"We're on it," the boy gazed at his parents and nodded.

"Good luck big bro!" his younger sister said.

"You two be careful," Suzumi added.

"I'm Doble. Your son won't be in trouble," the dragon reassured them as they left the house.

"I have some doubts," Halberd admitted.

Drum and Mizaru continued their duel as their weapon collided brutally. The large katana of the Omni Lord had extra weight that pushed the other dragon away.

The gray dragon released his claymore from his grasp and drew his katana and slashed. He scratched the red scales of his adversary cheek and little big of blood came out of the wound.

Drum counter attacked with his large weapon and missed the other dragon. He saw the katana coming at him again and kicked the wrist of the dragon.

The katana was flying in the air.

The Omni Lord released his grasp from his own weapon. He spun and kicked the snout of the other dragon and sent him away. He grabbed his weapon once again and charged.

Mizaru rolled on the ground and avoided the large weapon coming at him. He jumped in the air when another attack came. He rolled once again when he touched the group and grabbed his claymore and blocked the next attack, "Not bad Drum," he struggled to resist the pressure put by his adversary.

"Not bad either Mizaru."

"You still have to convince me that you are worthy to success Tenbu."

"I already told you that I will," his felt his muscles tensing as he prepared to charge. He felt a connection with his buddy and wondered what was going on, he's using his buddy skill. Is something going on? He chased away that uncertainty. He had faith in his buddy's decision. Still, he was nervous. Gao was someone who would not hesitate to put himself in trouble to help someone else.

"Tell me Drum. What will you honestly do once everything is over? Will you remain an Omni Lord or cast it aside? Because you still have to inherit your father position one day," the gray dragon asked.

Fang Slade Terrestrial The XIV was quiet as he heard that question. He never thought about it. What would happen after that? He already knew that he couldn't stay by the side of Gao forever. He had a few years before he was an adult and his father deemed him worthy of taking his place. If the old dragon ever decided that, "I never thought about it Mizaru. However, I cannot just put that title of Omni Lord aside," he had his father blessing, "I won't cast it aside once this is over. That is what I'm sure of it."

"Interesting," a small smirk was on the face of the gray dragon as he charged once again.

Their weapons collided once again. The Cavalry Dragon speed increased as his assault was faster than before. It forced the other on to be on the defensive. Mizaru made sure to push the dragon towards his dropped katana. He forced the other dragon to back away and hoped he wouldn't notice it.

Drum focused on parrying and dodging anything coming at him. He saw no opening. He knew that a single mistake and it might be over for him. He painfully grunted when he had been hit a few times on his shoulders and legs, but those were just scratches.

The gray dragon grinned when he was close to his weapon. He used his tail to send it in the air. He dropped his claymore to grab his katana and charged.

The Omni Lord new he couldn't match the speed of the light weight weapon and impaled his own on the ground. The katana bounced on the large and heavy katana while the red dragon grabbed the wrist of the other dragon and disarm him. He followed with a kick with his tail of the weapon and sent it away.

The gray dragon headbutt the red snout of the dragon and took a few steps back as he painfully grumbled at how much of a hard head the dragon had. He coughed a few times and charged once again. Their fist collided as they tried to punch each other's face. The next attack was a kick in the face of the Omni Lord and he followed up with punch on the next.

Drum felt on the ground and grumbled as he saw the next one coming at him. He rolled on the ground and tackled the Cavalry Dragon before he could recover. He pushed him against a tree and tried to restrain the dragon.

The two dragons struggled and grunted as one tried to free from the other grasp while the other's tried to force the other dragon into submission.

The Omni Lord was hit in the jaw and took a few steps back when he saw a fist coming at his face. He blocked it and grabbed the wrist of the gray dragon. He threw him on the ground and tried to restrain him once again.

Mizaru noticed what he tried for a while. It wasn't a battle where they tried to kill each other's and the red dragon only focused on restraining him, he wants me to give up the battle. It's true that we cannot fight to the death. He is also quick to adapt to another kind of fighting style, he chuckled. He put his feet on the gut of the red dragon and threw him away.

Drum landed on his feet and charged once again. Their fist fight continued as they tried to overpower each other's. Fighting without a weapon wasn't his main strength, so he focused on restraining the other dragon as his father taught him. He learned a thing of two with Gao and his mother, but he didn't dedicate himself in their fighting style like Halberd.

He avoided a kick and countered with his own on the belly of his adversary. The Omni Lord followed with a headbutt and made him lost balance. The red dragon didn't lose a second and jumped on him and restrained him on the ground, "It's over Mizaru," he grunted.

Mizaru lightly chuckled as he replied, "Not yet Drum," he used a little opening to smash the back of Drum's skull with his tail and took that second to escape the grasp of the other dragon, it was still close, he thought.

The red dragon painfully grumbled as he was back on his feet.

The Cavalry Dragon had his weapon back in his grasp and charged. His slash was blocked by the large weapon of his adversary.

Gao flew towards the scene with Doble, "What is the test more precisely?"

"It is as I said. We fight him, stop him from causing chaos. We free him from the grasp of Yamigedo and I'll beat him up with my fist! We have unfinished business that Yamigedo interrupted Gao. I was in the middle of a battle against him. He said that our fight was useless," his eyes were on fire, "I train to kick his sorry tail and show him that I'm stronger than him!"

"That's-" all? He finished it in his mind. He didn't want to insult the dragon. The boy wondered if it would be all, "How can we even free him from the control of Yamigedo?"

"Tenbu told us there is a way. If Yamigedo can gain the control of his demons, it can be reverse. The power of an Omni Lord can, but only those who are powerful enough to do it. Breaking a monster from the fiend's control needs a strong will and a strong soul. It's not as easy as erasing a mark," the orange dragon gazed at the Sun Fighter, "I'm not sure if the new Omni Lord mind is powerful enough for that."

"He could talk with Tenbu in his dream," the boy replied.

"Then maybe he can. We'll only know when he tries it," the monster commented.

"If he can't, does that mean that he-"

"No. Not every Omni Lords can do it. I know Miserea can easily pull that off. He is powerful enough to break any monsters from his control. However, he could only help those who turned that way against their will. It won't work on Igneel. He chooses to become his servant on his own free will."

"How do you know that?" Gao asked.

The orange dragon replied, "Because we were fighting when Yamigedo came."

The boy was quiet. He thought about it and eventually asked, "Why did you became a Cavalry Dragon?"

"So, I can get more powerful and beat Igneel in another battle," Doble simply replied.

There was nothing honorable in that statement. Gao chose not to dwell on that.

"However, while I trained with Tenbu and the other's… it became more than that. I want to protect the others worlds from its potential destruction. I never had real interest until I met Tenbu and the others. Many suffered great pain from the fiend, while mine couldn't compare. I had the stupidest reason to join the group," he turned towards the human with the resolve he built in the past, "I want to help my comrades in saving their friends. If they doubt in fighting their lost friend. If they can't handle challenging their friend, I shall be the one who take that weight."

The boy smiled and replied, "Tenbu always knew you'll turn around."

The warrior chuckled, "Probably."

They continued towards their destinations.

The two dragons dueling began to pant with exhaustion. Their body was reaching their limits. The two had many scratches and bumps on their body. Nothing serious that could put them in danger.

"Do you have enough already?" Drum asked.

"Not yet," Mizaru replied.

The two dragons charged and their weapons collided once again.

The gray dragon never managed to recover his claymore and resister of the other dragon's assault with his own katana. He could see the end coming as the other one still had enough energy to fight for another hour if needed. The new Omni Lord didn't see losing as something acceptable. The Cavalry Dragon saw, in the amber eyes of the red dragon, the unbreakable will. Not only that, but the gaze of the previous Omni Lord when he took something seriously. The moment when Tenbu stopped fooling around and faced the problem head on. The eyes of a true Omni Lord. It was there for a while, but the knight realised it only now.

One last hit on his katana and it escaped his grasp. The weapon flew in the air and spun a few times before it impaled a tree.

Drum pointed his big katana at the face of his adversary and asked, "Have enough?"

The dragon chuckled, "Yes. I see it in your eyes Drum Bunker Dragon. You are my Omni Lord. I saw a little bit of Tenbu when he is serious in his duties as one," he grabbed his katana and put it back on its scabbard.

The Omni Lord sighed in relief and rested against a tree, "It's over. I wasn't sure how long I could hold up."

"Longer than me."

"So? What now?"

The gray dragon grabbed his claymore and put it on his back. He approached his new Omni Lord and kneeled down, "Drum Bunker Dragon. From now on, I shall serve you as your Cavalry Dragon. I vowed to be loyal to you until the end. I vowed to protect you until the end. I vowed to you that I will obey your command, as long as they aren't completely stupid or one where you ordered us to stand on the side, so you can give up your life," he continued.

Drum was nervously chuckling at that part of the vow. The fact that he specifically told him that he wouldn't do the same mistake as they did with Tenbu. They won't obey him if he asked to let him give up his life, it must have been that painful, he realised. They had not only trust of their Omni Lord, but something else he couldn't put his claw on right now.

Mizaru concluded his vow, "As from now on, I am your Cavalry Dragon my Omni Lord."

"Just call me Drum."

"As you wish Drum."

"You are creeping me out a little."

The gray dragon laughed as a large smile was on his face, "You are just like Tenbu. He hates when I called him by his title or like a servant. No wonder he has so much faith in you."

"I don't even know how I did that. Grandpa Tenbu was just my grandpa… Until he told us he was an Omni Lord," he gazed at the sky. The sun was at its peak.

Their stomach grumbled.

"Looks like we fought harder than we thought."

"Yeah. It's pudding time!" stars was on his eyes.

Mizaru nervously gazed at the other dragon and thought, at least, it's after any cute female. It won't happen at anytime. Just when he is hungry, before he followed him back to the Mikado house.

The two arrived back home when it was a little pass lunch time. The two dragons were hungry.

"I can't believe Tenbu did that," the Omni Lord commented.

"He did," his knight replied with a small smirk, "He really tried to court your mother that way and ended up on the wrong side of her wrath."

"Grandpa really is a special dragon," Drum chuckled.

Mizaru agreed as he put his hand on the shoulder of the dragon, "He is," he continued seriously, "I am only the first of the Cavalry Dragon drum. They are others you will need to convince that you are the true inheritor of the Omni Lord Emblem."

"I am ready for that," they turned into their SD form as the red dragon replied that.

The gray dragon added, "Drum. There is something important I have to ask of you…A favor for when the time comes."

"What is it?"

"I'll need to refill my canteen on any kind of alcohol we can find here," Mizaru showed his brown canteen and shook it.

"It sounded like it was an urgency," the Omni Lord replied with a nervous chuckled.

"And more importantly. I have to tell you why I accept to become a Cavalry Dragon. Because when Kenrosai, a demon of Yamigedo appears. I have to be the one to defeat him in a battle."

"Why?" Drum asked.

"Kenrosai is a friend I made when I was younger. We had a duel and it ended on a draw. We kinda promise to fight another time to see who is the true winner," he showed his katana, "This was a gift from him. I have to be the one who saved him. I promised myself I would do that. I know I can't break the seal by Yamigedo, but I'm sure an Omni Lord can. Maybe you. Still, I have to be the one who stopped him. That's why I want you to let me fight him when he comes."

The red dragon wasn't certain if it was for the best. It might be a wrong decision that might killed the gray dragon. Still, he knew that if his buddy or any of his friends was in trouble, he would do anything to save him, "Sure. You better not lose against him."

"I have been training with Tenbu just for that," a relief smile was on the face of Mizaru.

"Let's go home. I'm starving," he knocked at the door and Suzumi opened, "We're back and I brought our first Cavalry Dragon friend. Tell Gao the good news!"

She smiled and replied, "Good for you," her smile went away, "And Gao isn't here right now. He left with our visitor."

"Visitor?" Drum asked.

"Doble."

"One of my comrades," Mizaru said. He nodded at the woman and said, "Greetings. I am Mizaru."

"Wait. Another Cavalry Dragon was here and- Why did Gao left with that dragon?" the Omni Lord asked.

"He went to fight a demon with Doble. Gao accepted to help him and with that, having another Cavalry Dragon joining you," Suzumi replied.

"I have to go!" he turned around and stopped when the gray dragon grabbed his wrist, "H-hey! Gao needs my help."

"It must be Igneel," he replied, "Doble time has come to end his problem with that dragon. If you do anything against Doble will, he won't ever show any respect for you."

"Gao went with him and I know he can overcome anything," Gao's mother smiled.

Drum gazed down and clenched his hands. It was the same as he pulled off today. Maybe hiding it from his buddy was already biting him in the tail, "He better be okay! Because I'll give him a mouthful if he is hurt," he turned around and went inside the house, "Please Suzumi. I have to know what happened while I was gone."

"I will tell you," she replied. She pat his head, "And diner is ready for you."

"Good."

The two dragons went inside to eat their diner. The red dragon felt uneasy as anything could go wrong.

Ban Emna and his partner Ricky saw the smoke coming from a building far away. The man frowned as he looked more carefully and saw it came from a factory.

"What is it boss?" Ricky asked. He realised what might be going on, "Do you think it's a demon?"

"I believe it is. Get ready, we have another demon to hunt," he replied as he activated his buddyskills.

"The others are coming?" the little dragon asked.

"Yes. They got the groceries."

"They will be glad to finally have some actions. I can't believe demons always attacked when they were busy," Ricky sighed.

They went to the scene of the battle.

AC: This is the end of this episode.
