Dragon Knights
"My Quest for You"

By: Drago Guardian Light

Disclaimer: Shuri: Alright missy…fool me once and all that, you're not getting me again.
DGL: (snore, snore, snore)
Shuri: (jaw drops) OMG! Now she's asleep! Get your lazy butt up right now! (smacks DGL on the head)
DGL: Oww! What the bleep was that for!
Shuri: That's what you get for sleeping during the acclaimed disclaimer.
DGL: Grrr… (throws Shuri into piranha pit)
Shuri: I HATE YOOOOUUUU!
DGL: Yeah I love you too. : ) But she is right. I don't own Dragon Knights. (sigh) Too bad though.

A/N: Sorry if the last chapter was a bit rushed, I wanted to leave you guys there cuz it seemed like a pretty good cliffy. Was I right? I was right wasn't I? Well either way…

Famin. I'm trying to make these chapters long and enjoyable! Isn't three pages enough?
Shuri: Apparently not cuz they're wanting more.
DGL: No one's asking you. But if you ask me, Thatz is the weirdest one. But they're all still cool. : ) I love all three! Shydeman does look like a girl; I actually thought he was a girl when I started reading DK. But just look at Shyrendora. (runs and hides) Umm…Can I get back to you on the whole Cesia thing? I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing…
Shuri: Neither one of us really much like Cesia, and we both agree she should stay away from Rath…as well as us.

Kruz. You'll hear from Nadil soon enough. But I guess I should warn you guys now, (and I will post this on the summary) this is gonna be a sadistic story. I just now realized that. To be honest, the wind updates faster then me…

Noone. And yet somehow…I agree with you. I don't know why I think Shydeman's cool. But he is better then Shyrendora. Eww…Well anyway, hope you enjoy the update!

"A Mission to Capture Dragon Knights"

"Aw, how sweet," a mocking voice sneered. "The Water Dragon Knight, nursing his Fire Dragon Knight back to health."

Rune quickly turned to look at the window where the voice came from. He gasped. "How did you get past the Lord's protective barrier Shydeman?" he asked with an intake of breath and more bravado then he thought he had at the moment.

Shydeman smirked from where he sat on the windowsill. "I have ways," he told Rune. He hopped off the window sill and slowly walked towards them. Rune stood in front of Rath with his arms outstretched in order to guard him. "Whatever it is you want, you won't get it." Rune told him.

In a moment Shydeman was gone. His figured simply shifted and he vanished. Rune looked around trying to pin point where he'd gone to, but he couldn't find him. What's more, his mind was screaming, how did he get past the Dragon Lord's protective barrier? He was a demon! He shouldn't be able to be here. Was the barrier down? But that was impossible! He could sense that the barrier was up and strong when he left Lord Lykouleon's bed chamber. "Where are you?" Rune growled under his breath.

Rune gasped when a hand suddenly slipped over his neck. A pair of cold lips rested next to his ear and a chuckle befell him. "I'm right here." Shydeman whispered. Rune quickly brought his arm up and turned around swinging it in order to smack him. Shydeman backed off with a smile. "What the hell are you doing here? How did you get past the demon barrier!" Rune shouted.

Pounding came at the door. "Rune?" Thatz shouted from outside. "Rune, are you in there? Answer me!"

Rune looked at the door then back at Shydeman. "He came with me." He turned at another voice. Sitting on the window sill now was Bierrez. The only demon capable of bypassing the Lord's barrier. Rune gulped. "Rune?" Thatz shouted from outside. "Rune, Lord Lykouleon thinks a demon has passed through the barrier around the palace! Rune?"

"You are mine now Rath Illuser," a voice declared evilly inside Rath. "I have rendered you immobile, you can't fight against me." Nadil! Rath thought almost afraid. What? You need your two goons to help you? He wondered.

Nadil laughed. "Those two are here for something else. That is why I haven't completely taken you over. I want you to see what I have planned." Damn you Nadil, what the hell are you planning? Rath wanted to know. When he caught sight of Rune he gasped. "I think you're beginning to catch on now." Nadil told him. You bastard! Rath screamed. Leave Rune out of this! He's got nothing to do with you! "But he does have something to do with you." Nadil pointed out. "And besides…I'm actually quite fond of the Water Dragon Knight." Rath growled. He wanted to scream for Rune to get out of there, but Shydeman was in front of the door and Bierrez was in front of the window; Water was nowhere to be seen, and what's worse Rune left his sword downstairs!

"We're here to pick up something." Shydeman explained moving closer to the Water Dragon Knight. Rune moved back, moving closer to Rath in order to protect him. "Well you're not getting to Rath," he told them. "Not without going through me."

Shydeman looked over at Bierrez and chuckled. "That's fine by me. It makes getting what I came for the much easier." Bierrez rolled his eyes. "Would you hurry up then?" he snapped. "Because if it was my choice, I'd push past him and kill Rath."

"Nadil has insisted we leave the Fire Knight alone." Shydeman told him. He stood tall in front of Rune, catching his chin in his hand. "Rath isn't what we're after," he told him roughly. His eyes flashed over with lust and the realization of what they'd come for hit Rune hard and his eyes glazed over in fear. His eyelids suddenly grew too heavy for him to keep open and he slumped to the ground.

No! Rath screamed. No Rune! Leave him alone Shydeman! I swear I'll kill you if you hurt him! Let, him, go!

"Are you happy now?" Bierrez asked very much annoyed by Shydeman at the moment. If he was going to be in the Dragon castle he at least wanted to try and kill Rath. Not be ordered to go after his little lover and be done. If Nadil wasn't taking over Rath he'd plainly screw all this and kill him.

"Yes." Shydeman answered Bierrez's question while holding Rune up in his arms the bridal way. "You take Rath," he commanded. Bierrez tried not to growl but filled out his order. Taking Rath by the hair he lifted him from the bed and swung him over his shoulder. He refused to carry anyone the way Shydeman carried Rune. He really just wanted this job to be over with. Maybe then he could find someone worth making a pact with.

XOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOX

Thatz continued to knock on the door, hearing familiar voices inside which only drove him to knock harder. He'd be lucky if he knocked the door down. He had a feeling that whatever demon, or demons, passed through the demon barrier would be after those two. And why not? They seemed like the best target for a surprise attack. They were just getting started to tell each other how they felt. Which some demons might think is a good time to go after them because that's a time they wouldn't expect it so their guard would be down. "Open the door Rune!" Thatz shouted. He put his ear to the door and listened for any other sound coming from inside.

"Are you happy now?" Thatz knew that voice could only belong to Bierrez. This was not really a surprise. He was the only demon with the power to get through the demon barrier around the castle. But who was he talking to?

"Yes. You take Rath." Thatz gasped. Bierrez had brought another demon into the castle with him and he'd decided to bring Shydeman along. And they were taking Rath! Thatz pounded the door harder. When pounding didn't work he kicked the door. After two swift hard kicks the door swung open and smacked up against the wall behind it. Thatz ran inside the room, hoping to find at least one of his friends. "Rath! Rune?"

He stopped when he realized that neither one of them were there. Shydeman and Bierrez had taken both of them. What he didn't understand was, why didn't Rath fight back? Why didn't he protect Rune? He would never let up a chance like this to kill any demons. Fire landed on his left shoulder and Water landed on his right. His face fell when he realized he'd have to be the one to tell the dragons that their masters had been kidnapped. "I'm sorry you guys," he whispered. "I couldn't help them. And now…"

"Thatz!"

Thatz turned when someone yelled out to him. Lord Lykouleon was heading for him. Thatz turned to him with a lowered head. How could he face the Dragon Lord knowing he couldn't do anything to protect his friends and fellow Dragon Knights? He could feel a twinge of shame rub in his gut. "Where's Rune and Rath?" Lykouleon asked.

Thatz turned away. "Gone," he answered. "The demons were Bierrez and Shydeman. And…they took Rath and Rune."

Lykouleon was taken aback by the strange news. Rath and Rune were both kidnapped by Bierrez and Shydeman? How could that happen? Knowing Rath he'd jump at the opportunity to kill demons, mainly those two. But if that was the case, then why weren't they still here? Why wasn't Rath standing in front of them mad because he'd let them get away? Why wasn't Rune with him telling him it was okay that they got away? But that was just it. They weren't there. They were gone. "We've got to find them," he declared.

He only then realized Thatz wasn't looking at him. The way the Earth Dragon Knight averted his gaze, was more then enough proof that something was wrong. "Thatz, what's wrong?" Lykouleon asked putting a hand on his shoulder. Thatz turned his head away from him. "I couldn't…I couldn't help them," he admitted softly. "I don't know how I can look at you the same anymore."

Lykouleon smiled softly. "Thatz, I understand. You were locked outside the room, you couldn't get in." He took the Dragon Knight in an embrace. "You tried. That's all that matters. Only now, we have to find them, wherever they are." Thatz nodded against his chest.

A/N: Okay, that seemed longer right? And due to the sudden, recent, and all too soon appearance of Bierrez and Shydeman, this fictions rating has gone from T to M. Sorry! I hadn't expected Shydeman to show up so soon or for him to have Bierrez with him. It was a spur of the moment thing and it appears I'm going with it. :l You guys gotta read the summary to find out what this story will now later have. Again I apologize. Don't kill me!
