Chapter 8: Sudden Dragon (Greed)

EXT. FOREST - WALKING - DUSK

*Sans, Papyrus, and Shovel Knight are about half an hour away from Russia. The stories did help with eating up some time.*

Sans:
Feel sorry for ya, Sharky.

Shovel Knight:
No need to be, Sans. You did have a deep... and pretty long story.

Papyrus:
Y-You're not mad at me for telling that story about dad?

Sans:
Eh... why should I? Besides we should be at Russia by right... abo-

*Suddenly, the trio can hear a roar and a man screaming. Then they see a scrawny man running the other direction.*

???:
DRAGON!

Sans:
Dragon?

Shovel Knight:
Strange... there aren't any dragons in russia...

Papyrus:
Unless...

*The trio turn around to see GRIM MATCHSTICK, angry and possessed by... something. Riding him are demons who seem to abuse him while riding him.*

Papyrus and Sans:
GRIM!?

Shovel Knight:
A dragon...! It has been a long time since I seen one.

*Grim Matchstick breaths his fire at the trio. The trio dodge it by a second.*

Sans:
Well this a dragon that breathes fire.

???:
JUST KILL THE DAMN THING ALREADY!

Sans:
Grim doesn't look like his chill self. We need to beat him down!

*Sans, Papyrus, and Shovel Knight fight Grim Matchstick.*

Yea... happen to have a crazy neighbor who likes to drive his car into his house and break through his own window?

James:
Mr. N?

Sans:
Yea that's the guy.

Papyrus and Shovel Knight:
Mr. N?

Shovel Knight:
Who is this Mr. N you speak of?

James:
Some prick of a neighbor and dad. Nothin new. Lucky me he's somewhere up on that golden castle in the sky, leaving me free to check his basement... but demons are on my tail because of something about "Determined" or something?

Sans:
(In mind)
And that's another one.
(To James)
You're coming with us bud. That guy in the castle over there- the one if you look at it too long you'll go blind- the guy who owns it is evil and plans on enslaving the earth and we're here to stop that and for safety reasons I suggest you come with.

James:
Now why would I-

Sans:
Because if you save your Neighbor's life, he'll probably let you into his house and you can go and look in that basement you wanted to go in oh so much.

James:
...Sign me up.

Sans:
Good!
(To Grim)
Yo Grim. can you still Fly?

Grim Matchstick:
P-P-P-Probably?

*Grim stretches his wings.*

Grim Matchstick:
I-I-I-I guess.

Sans:
Mind riding us to that castle?
