Garfacky: GilandThatz does not own Dragon Knights.

Chapter 4: Backfire

Thatz woke up in the dragon castle, his chest burning from beneath his skin for some unknown reason. And all he could remember was getting by Fedelta. "What happened?" He asks himself standing up. A sharp pain went through his body, making it unbearable to even think about standing, let alone walking.

Thatz sinks back into the comfortable confides of his bed. (It hurts,) he thinks to himself as even breathing in had started to hurt. He held himself as he curled into a tight ball in his bed. "H-h-h-help!!" He screams in pain as his whole world blacks out.

The screaming dies down as Thatz begins to stand up, the pain was now bearable. Slightly smiling as he slowly opened his red Fedelta-like eyes and small pin-like fang teeth. He almost glided out of the room, out to the darkened hallway of the Dragon place. (The stupid Dragon can absorb demons. Funny, how he's dead now.) The fire demon thinks to himself, walking quietly down the hall.

"Thatz? Is that you?" Someone asks from behind him, startling him and causing him to stop in his tracks.

"Yes," he squeaks not facing the oncoming dragon.

"You're awake. We were beginning to worry," the person says with a relived sigh as Thatz's eyes change into their normal color.

"You don't have to worry about me, Queen Raseleane." He assures the Dragon Queen who smiled at the Earth Knight.

"I just had a bad feelin' that's all," Raseleane says as Thatz walks closer to her. A sly smile growing on his face as he looked into her colorless eyes.

"I'm alright. Now go back to sleep, Your Majesty. We're a going to be a big day tomorrow." Thatz says scooting away from the Queen who looks at him questioningly.

"What do you mean? I came to find if you were all right, I thought I heard you scream." Raseleane says staring at the possessed Earth Knight. (If I was in my normal body, I would have killed her on the spot. But since I'm in him, she's getting off lucky.) Fedelta thought as he noticed the look on her face.

"I didn't scream, it musta been your imagaintion." He assures her as he walks away, leaving her in the dark.

-Next Day-

He had been wandering the castle all night looking for Nadil's head but found nothing. And that Earth Knight was not giving out information. Fedalta had found it amazingly difficult to get a hold of any of his memories or thoughts. "Hey Thatz, how are you?" Someone asks, their voice climing in the fire demon's memory.

He turns to see the purple-haired Fire Knight standing there with a smile on his face. Fire was perched on his shoulder. (Shyrendora's pet cat,) Fedelta thinks to himself staring right in the face of the person he hated. "I'm fine," he answers holding back the strong feeling to slide his hands around his neck and choke his breathe out of him.

"I'm glad, now you can go with me to the Bartender that you always talked about." Gil states happily. Fedelta hated the clashing of feelings he was having in his new body and more now since he began to realize that he was surrounded by his mortal enemies.

"Sure," he says with a stingy tone in his voice. Gil leads him out of the castle and to a human village. Walking into a bar with a smile on his face.

"Hey, Thatz what's up?" A human thief asks sitting on a stool talking with his gang. Fedelta glares at the person his eyes flashing with a crimson glow. The person falls back, falling to the ground in shock.

"Man, what's wrong?" Another asks kneeling down next to the fallen thief. "Hey Thatz, ain't ya goin' to say hi to your old friends?" Fedelta looks over at the other human thief anger growing within him as Thatz fought to the surface. Gil stops, looking questioningly at the Earth Knight as Thatz falls to the ground.

"Is he all right?" Someone else asks as Gil walks over to him followed by Master who had spotted the two from when they came in.

"Thatz? Are you okay?" Gil asks soothingly trying to help him up.

"Don't touch me," he hisses moving away from him as Thatz returns in control. "Gil. Get Lykoulean tell him not to trust me, not anymore." Gil looks questioningly at the Earth Knight as Thatz looks up him, his once green eyes slowly changing red. Master and Gil take a step back as he is engulfed in the ever so familar black flames.

They watch helplessly as the flames seperate to reveal Fedelta in all his glory. And the thing that was on everyones mind was "Where the hell did Thatz go?" Gil stares angrily at one of the people he had hated for the longest time. "Where's Thatz?" Gil asks angrily taking at his sword. Fedelta smiles turning to Thatz and then returning back to his regualar form.

"Surprising, isn't it?" Fedelta chuckles taking out the Earth sword. He lunges it at Gil but a sword blocks his path. He turns to see Master standing with a sword in his hands.

"Not really, this can happen when a Dragon absorbs a stubborn but strong demon. But sooner or later, that demon's going to disappear and the dragon will take control again." Master states sliding his sword against Fedelta's cheek. "Make it easier on yourself and stop what you're doing right now, before you get hurt." All the thieves and Gil stare, in shock, at Master as he steps in between Gil and Fedelta.

Fedelta glares at him as he slashes Master across the chest. "Stupid human, I won't give myself to die." He snares as notices that Gil is not in front of him but behind him.

"I don't want to hurt my friend, so stop it." Gil says as Master smacks Fedelta with the handle of his sword.

"Hurry up, I have something that will stop this." Master says as everyone stares at him.

"You have something for everything, don't ya." A thief says as Gil carries Fedelta in the back room. After awhile, Gil and Thatz walk out of the back room followed shortly my Master.

"Don't worry he won't cause anymore trouble. And I think that Lord Lykoulean will be needing you shortly so we all need you in the right mind." Master says as Thatz gets a guilty look on his face.

"While we're here, can we something to eat?" Thatz asks as Gil and Master sweatdrop.
