All right! I updated! Keep your head on, Queeny! *Watches as Queeny's head pops off* Oops! Hehe, a little too late. Oh well, nothing a little duct tape can't handle.

Disclaimer – I do not own Dragon Knights. I do, however, own my very own box of pocky! *munch munch*

Quest! They have to get WHAT?!

It was a peaceful day in the Dragon Castle (yes, despite the fact that there was a large, almost indestructible monster raging outside). Lykouleon, the Dragon Officers and the Dragon Knights were calmly having a meeting. Well, maybe calmly isn't quite the word.

Rath - *Running around the room* Big demon! Big demon!

Rune – Rath, you do realize that you could own every weapon in the world, have all of five of the dragons fight for you, be the most powerful knight that ever lived and none of it would matter if you didn't know how to kill this thing, right?

Rath - …So?

Mass facefaulting.

Alfeegi – Now, if we could get back to the subject at hand… We need to do something! If this doesn't stop soon, the whole of Dusis may be destroyed!

Ruwalk – Is there any possible way we can defeat it?

Lykouleon – Interesting. It says here that the only thing that the monster can't stand is gold.

Alfeegi – Your Highness, what are you reading?

Lykouleon – Hmm? Oh, this. I found it lying around. *Holds up a piece of paper containing a copy of the prologue*

Alfeegi – Ah.

Ruwalk – Very intellectual.

A large tremor shook the room. Objects rattled, people lost their balance, and bobble head dolls bobbled until they could bobble no more.

Tetheus – This is very serious. The security cannot handle this sort of situation.

Rath – Leave it to Tetheus to be uptight in a humor fic.

Tetheus – This is not a laughing matter.

Rath – Relax. All we have to do is get some gold.

Kaistern – That's the problem. Now that I look back on it, I don't recall seeing a single piece of gold in any of the places I've been recently.

Rune – Oh, that's because Thatz's obsession with valuables went overboard again. *points over his shoulder at Thatz, who is protectively standing in front of what looks to be all of the gold in the world*

Thatz – It's mine! All mine!!! (Insert maniacal laughter here)

Alfeegi - *Sweatdropping* He has the look of a wild dog protecting his territory…

Ruwalk – Looks more like a wild hyena to me. I don't think wild dogs are usually that cynical.

Alfeegi – Owned or not, we've got to use it. Now Thatz, if you would move aside… hey!

Everyone sweatdropped as they watched Alfeegi wrestle on the ground with Thatz, who had his teeth clamped tight onto Alfeegi's arm like a rabid animal and wasn't letting go.

Rune – I don't think he's going to share.

Ruwalk – Woah Thatz! Down boy!

Thatz was pried off of the semi-dead White Dragon Officer and placed in a strait jacket (which he promptly gnawed his way out of, but he was calmer.)

Alfeegi – Gah. *gets up*

Rath – Are you okay, Alfeegi?

Alfeegi – I'm fine.

Rath – You sure? You don't need rabies shots or anything, do you?

Alfeegi – I'M FINE!

Thatz – Besides, I don't have rabies! … I think.

Alfeegi – Er, maybe I should get those shots…

Tetheus – So we are just going to sit here and wait for impending doom, I presume?

Lykouleon – Of course not.

Ruwalk – His Majesty has a plan?

Lykouleon – Have you forgotten about the Golden Ducky?

Kaistern – Of course! The Golden Ducky of Mt. Ripoff!

Rune – Kind of… Ironic, isn't it?

Kaistern – But Mt. Ripoff is pretty far away, not to mention all of the demons running around lately. To get there, we would need someone-

Rath - *Ears perk up at the word 'demon'* Demons? Why didn't you say so? If there's anyone who-

Thatz – Forget about the demons! It's gold, Rath! Gold!

Rune – I'm surrounded by lunatics.

Thatz - *To Lykouleon* Have no fear, sir! If anyone can get that Ducky, It'll be me- I mean us! Come on Rune, Rath! *grabs the other two knights and runs out the door, leaving behind a large dust cloud*

Everyone -…

Lykouleon – 5…4…3…2…1…

*Thatz runs in*

Thatz – Does anyone know how to get to Mt. Ripoff?

Will the Dragon Knights be successful in their journey? What is the fate of Dusis? Will bobble head dolls ever bobble again? Stay tuned to find out! Remember, the Golden Ducky appreciates those who honor it!

(I do apologize for the shortness of the chapter. Hopefully the others will be longer, but as I said, I have little time to write.)
