Knight's Dragon 2
Ghost of a Chance

Chapter 4: Old Enemies, New threat

Three days had passed since Kitt had been reunited with Karr and the others. Three days of tests being run, of questions being asked and answered. That part was over now, and Kitt had orders to show Karr how to activate his dragon armor, and to show him how to change its colors.

Kitt watched Karr as the armor slid down around the cars sloped fenders, not noticing when karr asked him something. His thoughts were on maxie and Michael. Maxie had been asked to join the foundation and become karrs driver. But she had denied, saying that it wasn't her kind of work. And since he had been brought back to the foundation, he hadn't seen Michael. Was he mad at him for some reason?

"Kitt!" Karrs voice was impatient now.

Kitt shook himself and drug his thoughts back to what he was supposed to be doing. Karrs armor had activated, but needed its color to change. "Concentrate on the armor and think of the color you would like it to be, like say... pink."

Kitts scanner swished wickedly as Karrs body changed to a brilliant neon pink. It took Karr a moment to realize what had happened, but as he saw the pink fenders, his engine growled to life angrily.

"You did that on purpose!" Karr moved forward as kitt backed out of the garage.

"It looks good on you Karr" Upon saying this kitt wheeled around and took off at full speed, Karr wasting no time to follow.

Michael, Devon, Bonnie and Maxie stood near the main house talking about extra protection for the cars when the squealing of car tires interrupted them. All of them looked up in time to see a black car flash by followed closely by a bright pink stingray. Michael started laughing as Devon and Bonnie covered their mouths.

Karr heard the laughter and switched directions heading toward Michael at full speed. Kitt, turned as well, wondering if he had went to far, and headed to try to block Karrs path. Karr however slid to a halt barely an inch from Michaels knees. Michael took one step back and grinned at the angry car.

"Its not funny! He deliberately tricked me" Karrs furious voice boomed.

Kitt arrived a couple of seconds after Karr, and slowed to a stop. "You are always too serious, Karr. It was just for fun, Besides its easy enough to change it if you just concentrate on a color."

Karr trembled in anger for a moment before relaxing completely, until another thought ran through his circuits. He hadn't been going to run Michael over, He knew that much. But why had he headed to michael? Shoving the question away, Karr concentrated on his shell, managing to turn it back to its normal deep blue.

Watching the cars color shift, Michael moved to Karrs side and opened the door. "Well, I'm going to head out and see if i can find any traces of the attackers, Devon."

Devon nodded and waved as the two left. Turning to Maxie he smiled. "I wish you would change your mind about working for us."

Maxie was already shaking her head before he finished. "Sorry Devon, I'm just not cut out for this. Is there any way i can get a ride into town?"

Kitts voice spoke up then, unusually quiet. "Ill take you."

"Thank you Maxie, for everything" Devon turned and walked back towards the garage, as Kitt and Maxie left the grounds.

Kitt was silent on the way back into town. He didn't understand why Michael was ignoring him. Michael hadn't even looked at him. "Kitt whats wrong? " Maxie was worried, she knew something was wrong with Kitt but not sure what.

Kitts voice was decidedly hushed when he finally spoke. "Why did Michael take Karr instead of me?"

"I'm Sorry Kitt i don't have an answer for that question." Though in her mind she thought she understood why Michael had ignored Kitt.
Maybe Michael just wasn't sure it was Kitt yet. She frowned a little. But he hadn't even made a move to see for himself yet either. Any such thoughts were driven from her mind as they turned into the driveway of her home.

Smoke billowed up from the main house, flames curling up the side of the small garage lab. Kitt silently notified the Fire department and police, then slammed to a halt as he realized the white limo sat directly in his path facing him. He started to move backwards when a large and very familiar truck pulled up, blocking his retreat.

Miles away, Karr was wondering why Michael had taken him instead of Kitt as well, but before he could put the question to voice, Michael spoke up. "Karr do you think that, thats really Kitt? I mean we saw him destroyed, completely."

Understanding flowed through Karr then. "It is him Michael, i would know if it wasn't... he is my brother..." the very last part was spoken so softly that michael almost didn't hear it.

Michael shifted in his seat, then opened his mouth to say something else, but was cut off by karr. "A fire alarm has been set off and police have been sent to a house on the edge of town, Michael. Witnesses have reported seeing a white limo and what would appear to be a armored Semi on the site."

"An armored Semi? The only one i know of was Goliath and he was destroyed." Coldness seeped into Michael as he and Karr headed straight for the house.

A/N: I am sorry this chapter is smaller then normal, however i do swear that barring internet trouble again, there will not be the major lag in the time it takes me to update.
