The knight threw an array of swords, maces and spears to the ground."You have entered the Castle Fromage Fighting games, you can earn our friendship by fighting!"An audience of peasants cheered. Duke Von-Velcro looked on from his high-staged seating area where his gorgeous younger niece was eying up Cerebrum."Fight?" Asked Keto.
Jay raised an eyebrow, Keto, getting brave?..He hadn't realised that what Keto had meant was he thought Jay should fight, while the rest all run away and hide, he tried to make a getaway, until a large sword flashed across in front of him, He followed the blade with his eyes, and up the arm of a knight on horeseback, who scowled, Keto backed away, rejoining the small gathering of crew.
"Ok..." said Jay cracking his knuckles, "they want a fight they got one!"
He picked up a sword from the floor, and nearly toppled from the weight, after regaining his bearings he lunged at a nearby knight, Alota, stood, arms folded shaking her head, then she picked up a sword as well and joined her husband, attacking the second knight that had moved in to help his ally.
Seymour seemed at home with a sword, he picked up a smaller blade, a one handed sword, uniekt eh broadswords that Jay and Alota had picked up, and he was now chopping and dicing his way through a small crowd of knights.
Cerebrum and Keto were squabbling over who had the most authority to use the last sword and who got the spear.
"ENOUGH!" came a voice from the high-staged seating area, it was Von-Velcro.
"Can you not see these warriors from the sky are of the same clan as our recent visitors?" the peasants gasped, and the knights drew their swords.
"Whu....What?"...said Jay.."Visitors?"
"He must mean the captains party Chrysler" said Keto "Dont you ever pay attention?"
"Dont you ever consider drinking cyanide?"
"Brave knights from the sky, they had also cpatured a dragon...but theirs was killed upon landing" he pointed at the starbug from Deans landing "You seem to have mastered the dragon taming" reffering to Jays smooth landing "Tell me was the maiden known as Dean Thomas an apprentice of yours?"
"You could say that.."
"..maiden?" mouthed Keto, Jay just smirked
"They brought with them a DEMON!, they were chased from here, but should they return they shall be slain!"
The crew were confused, 'demon'?.Dean wasnt even in his own body,...which was back on the dwarf!
Seymour stepped forward "Tell me of this Demon?"
"T'was a rodent, the size of a man, with evil in its eyes!"
"they must mean the captain" whispered Alota
"the demon and his army fled our land, it will kill our herds, and destroy our crops unless it and it's followers are destroyed!" Von-Velcro said.
"My liege!" Seymour said, gettign carried away, "The rodent is the lesser of two evils! We are here hunting the insects!"
"You defend the rodent?" siad Von-Velcro "Surely thou ares't allies of this demon!"
Seymour opened his mouth to speak but was interuppted by Jay clapping a hand over his mouth "Tell me!" he shoted to Von-Velcro "Where did this Demon go?, We will hunt him down and tame him!"
Seymour pulled Jay's hand away from his mouth "That is no way to treat an ambassador to her majesty!"
"It is when he's gonna get us killed!. This way we can gain their trust and get their help in cathcing a bug and getting of this rock!"
A large man whispered something in the ear of Von-Velcro, who nodded, "Very well, thou shalt be spared, for now....you must return the demon to us by the seventh sundown, or your dragon shall be slain!"
"he does that, we'll never get off this planet" said Keto
"To ensure that thou'st does not attempt trickery, mine finest knight shall accompany you, betray me, and you shall all be slain!"
A burly man in a suit of armour stepped forward "Sir Tim Cullus, shall assist you, in your hunt, and will ensure you do not cross me, what say you Dragon-Tamer?"
Jay said nothing, Keto jabbed him in the rib's, hard.
"Ow...oh right..thats me.." He stood as tall as he could, "If that's your'e terms, so be it!"
<tag!..lets go hamster hunting!>

*Actionette*Seymour and JayShuttlebay where the "Chrysler 5000 super duper you cant bend it turbo nutter bastard glider" was parked.Seymour looked again at the odd looking contraption. "So where's the team mad...I err...mean extremely courageous enough to fly in this wonderful looking beast of a machine?""Well erm... nobody seems to have turned up." Jay admitted. "I was hoping that Alotta would come at least, and if she says not I could always use the 'you'd come if you loved me' line."Seymour raised an eyebrow. "I'll see if I can find a team." he groaned and stomped off.**Medibay**"And why should I go pon the mission?" Dr Keto asked, his arms folded."Well, because...I...I am a good contact of the Queen of England, and I have it on good authority that she gives very expensive gold medals away to brave men who rescue crewmembers who are trapped on electrical-dampening planets in the middle of red nebulas."Keto frowned and said skeptically. "Oh so that's an official award then is it?""Not made up at all" Seymour lied in a thick self-richous voice.Behind Keto the pink tree rustled."What did he say" Seymour asked, not being able to understand foliage."Something about the Queen..." Keto listened as the tree spoke more. "...Spreads like butter?"It took a few seconds for the statement to sink in befire Keto's eyes glowed."I'm in. Where's the shuttle?"**Back in the shuttlebay**"That's the shuttle?" Keto said, quickly looking around for escape routes, but the tree- who had come for a walk blocked his path. It rustled more smut about the queen."Does she really? For only 2 pints you say?" Keto rubbed his chin.Jay was dragging his semi-conscious wife up the gangplank to the glider-ship."Good God Jay, is she alright?" Seymour exclaimed."I found her collapsed outside the drive room, give her a few minutes to come round, she'll be 'rate.Alotta saw the unsturdy looking shuttle with its wooden frame and wings and began flapping her arms and trying to speak but couldn't before she feinted again."She'll be okay, she gets like this after a few drinks....""Are you sure she's been drinking, what about that bruise..." Seymour was distracted as something knocked his legs."I'm terribly sorry Elwood, you can't come on this mission- this planet has some electromagnetic field that stops electrical components from working. Maybe next time old chap- keep working on those all-terrain legs though."Elwood scowled in a way that only skutters could scowl. In fact it didnt look like he was scowling at all.Jay, Keto and Alotta were all aboard so Jay engaged the engines. The ship shook, but unwanting to hurt Jay's feelings after all the effort he'd put into building the craft, they all gripped firm hold of something out of his sight.The shuttlbay decompressed and the bay doors opened. The starbug with woden chitty chitty bang bang style wings glided into space towards the planet.All of a sudden, a locker door opened and Cerebrum bursted out. "Oh dear god what's going on?" he yelled as he saw the stars.The shuttle's lights suddenly turned off. They had just entered range of the dampening field.Jay deployed the wings. deploy was such a nice word, it just means he pulled a string making the wooden wings spring out to full width via a series of rusty springs.they glided to the ground, gradually getting faster from te free fall, but a sudden gust of wind blew them along so that they flew along the surface."What can you see?" Asked Seymour."Trees, trees, more trees... have these people never heard of urbanisation?.....castle straight ahead!""Castle?!" Shouted seymour. He loved to read about castles, honourable knights and fairy stories when he was little. Ahead was a real castle, not a ruin, an actual living castle. And they were going to crash into it."Careful!"Jay pulled the wings rudders back, they just made it over the perimeter wall by only knocking a few bricks and a sentry guard's hat off.They landed in mud upside down and fell out."Jay?" Asked Alotta who had just regained some kind of consciousness."Yes honey?""Why are there two horses coming straight towards us with men with bug sticks on them?""We're in the middle of a joust!" Seymour said excited. "Its ok, just duck."One knight struck the other with his long joust stick, and he fell off his horse to the ground.The remaining knight turned his horse around and glared down at the BD crewmembers."Identify yourselves strangers!""Let me handle this...I'm the Ambassador." Said Seymour proudly. "We come in peace, we are friends!"The knight threw an array of swords, maces and spears to the ground."You have entered the Castle Fromage Fighting games, you can earn our friendship by fighting!"An audience of peasants cheered. Duke Von-Velcro looked on from his high-staged seating area where his gorgeous younger niece was eying up Cerebrum."Fight?"
