Author's Note: Though this is not my first fanfiction, this is my first time posting something. Hmm… Yep, that's all I have to say. Oh, and I got this idea from a friend who "wants something funny."

Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Knights. That's the sad, sad fact.

Chapter One

The Dragon Lord's castle was filled with the everyday yelling, crashing, and banging that had been taking place lately. It was, to tell the truth, a little too much for Rune.

Just five minutes. That's all I ask for. Five minutes. Rune thought, settling himself on the ground. For five minutes, no demons, no yelling, just calm.

His breath flowed in and out in a steady rhythm as he fell into meditation.

That's it. Just calm.

He paused. Something stirred in the air. Something was not quiet right.

He opened his eyes.

"What are you doing?" So much for no demons, Rune thought irritably.

Bierrez scuffled the ground uncomfortably. "I…um…well…"

"Spit it out."

"Okay…" he glanced up. "Why do all the girls like you so much?"

The faerie couldn't help sighing. "I have no idea. Honestly, I don't."

Bierrez coughed and sat down next to him, to Rune's disappointment. He was never going to get to meditation.

"'Cause, well, you know….Cesia…."

"And Rath, right?" Rune rolled his eyes. "Yeah, none of us ever saw that coming."

Despite the sarcasm dripping off his comment, Bierrez didn't pick up on it.

"I know!" he sniffed. "If only I hadn't attacked the castle…maybe she would still like me…"

"How about…being really nice to her?"

"Oh, wait, hang on…" Bierrez produced a small pad of paper and a pencil. "Nice… I think I can do that," he muttered. "Okay, anything else?" He looked up hopefully.

Rune shifted, sweat-dropping. What had he gotten himself into? "Um…why don't you try that for now? It's always a good start, you know."

"Okay!" Bierrez said cheerfully, getting up. "Thanks Rune!"

Finally, Rune thought, closing his eyes. Five minutes…

"Rune! I'm bored! Can we go find demons?" Rath's voice cut across his concentration.

Rune let out a curse unacceptable to his royal raising, but at that moment, he could care less. All he wanted to do was meditate. Perhaps tomorrow…

Rune sighed. He could already tell that 'tomorrow' would be far, far away.

AN: So there you go! The first chapter! We'll see how this turns out... Thanks for reviewing (if you do...)
