MANSEL: My story begins
when I was but a lad of 16.

It was the year
I became a novice

at Brother Gilbert's
monastery,

when I first heard
the prophecy.

A dragon's heart
could do mankind,

when a two-tailed comet
blazed across the night sky.

I paid this legend
little heed,

for I had come
for a quiet life
of prayer and devotion.

Besides, everyone knew
there were no more dragons.

The last, Draco,
had been slain
by Sir Bowen,

a knight of the Old Code.

I later learned
that in the last year
of his life,

Bowen returned
to Draco's cave.

There, he was granted
a miracle,

a dragon egg
about to hatch.

The dying knight
entrusted the hatchling
to our monastery.

Fearful evil might dwell
in this dragon's heart,

Friar Peter and the Abbott
pledged to hide him away

until the comet
had passed.

For 20 years,
they carefully guarded

the secret
locked beneath us.

Eight days before
the comet's arrival,

my quiet life
was turned upside down.

Before the week was out,
I'd be embroiled
in deception,

mystery and battle.

And who could have known
that Geoff,

the orphan stable boy
at our monastery,

would reveal
the deepest secret

of what is truly
in a dragon's heart.

(SQUEALING)

(HORSE NEIGHING)

MAN: Make way for
the King's noble knights.

Wishing to be
one of them

won't get the stables
cleaned any faster.

Where do you think
they're headed
all dressed up like that?

They're off
to the castle

to honor Lord Osric
being sworn in

as the King's
chief advisor.

(BELL TOLLING)

The castle.

(MONKS SINGING)

I suggest you get back
to the stable

before the Abbott
catches you around.

I promise I will
have the stables
scrubbed cleaner

than the Abbott's table
by Vespers.

And, Friar Peter,
I will even clean
that old dungeon for you,

if you just
unlock it for me.

I'll tell you a secret
about that dungeon.

There's nothing
down there

that can transform you
into a knight.

You're a good boy
at heart.

If you work hard
and practice humility,

you'll be a fine
stable master some day.

I'll be outta here
long before I'm any kind
of stable master.

I, Lord Osric of Crossley,

choose the Old Code
as my oath.

I am hereby sworn
to valor,

to speak
only the truth,

to use arms
to defend the helpless,

to use might
to uphold the weak.

My heart
knows only virtue.

My wrath will
undo the wicked.

(CROWD MURMURING)

(CROWD APPLAUDING)

My King.

As Chief Advisor,

my goal is nothing less
than ensuring
that the Old Code

lives on in the hearts
and minds of all people.

Everyone should share
in our kingdom's bounty.

Tomorrow,
I shall bestow
a personal gift

on all men, women
and children
in the land.

A gift?

Is it my birthday?

(LAUGHS) No, Sire.

MANSEL:
Everyone was pleased
when Lord Osric

was named
Chief Advisor,

since our beloved King's
behavior had become
so unusual of late.

Everyone will receive
two new tunics

in the style and color suited
to their inherited station.

From now on,
no one will
wear anything else.

MANSEL: There I was,
so young,

a mere novice entrusted
with the monastery's
most important secret.

Silence was
my solemn vow.

Mansel,
what are you doing?

Geoff.

Looks like
old Friar Peter's
cauldron.

What would you be
doing with that?

Can you keep a secret?

You know I can.

Friar Peter gave me
a new chore to do.

Ooh, lucky you.
What is it?

I told you,
it's a secret.

Fine.

A secret chore
from Friar Peter.

That's pretty special.
Don't you think?

Maybe just
a little special, yes.

Come on,
don't say it like that.

Take some pride
in being special.

All right,
I am special.

It's not like pride's
one of those

seven deadly sins
or anything.

Actually, it is.

(PIG SQUEALING)

You're right, Geoff.
Manual labor sure keeps
the soul humble.

Thank you for
getting me to do this.

Any time.

Don't forget
the corners.

(GRUNTS)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

(DOOR OPENS)

Yes?

MANSEL: Two most
unusual strangers

are asking after
Brother Gilbert's
writings.

The Abbott has
sent them to you.

Very well.

This is Master Kwan
and his son.

I fear I don't have
much hospitality
to offer.

Oh. I spent my youth
in a monastery
much like this one,

but we do not
seek comfort.

We have come from
Hebei Province,

where man and dragons
lived in peace.

Many years ago,
a terrible evil
set dragon against man,

and all our dragons
were destroyed.

(GASPS)

FRIAR PETER:
A terrible tale.

Though I have to say,
I don't see

what this has
to do with me.

I'm told that the founder
of this monastery

wrote extensively
about dragons,

and that you are
the guardian
of his scrolls.

Brother Gilbert
was a kind soul

with a fanciful imagination
and a poor hand at poetry.

It has been read
in the stars

that a new dragon
was born.

Surely you are aware
that the prophesied comet
will return in eight days.

We must prevent the evil
from taking hold again.

I am a man of God.

I do not believe in
such superstitious prattle.

Then the dragon talon
in your pocket

is a meaningless
talisman?

It has meaning only
to the monks
of this order.

It was passed on
by Brother Gilbert,

who received it
from Sir Bowen.

He claimed
it belonged to Draco,
the last dragon.

(DOOR OPENS)

KWAN: But we must
test the dragon before
the comet arrives.

FRIAR PETER: There are
no dragons here.

But Lord Osric knows
about stars and comets.
(SHUSHING)

Perhaps he can
help you.

Thank you.

Good night.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(SIGHS)

(MICE SQUEAKING)

What would Mansel
be doing down here?

(WATER DRIPPING)

(WIND HOWLING)

(WIND BLOWING)

(GRUNTS) This was
not a good idea.

(BLOWING)

(MICE SQUEAKING)

(SCREAMS)

(PANTING)

(GRUNTS)

(GASPS)

(GROWLING)

(SCREAMING)

GEOFF: Stay away from me!

(DRAGON GROWLING)

(SNIFFING)

(GROWLING CONTINUES)

(GASPS)

(EXCLAIMS SOFTLY)

You know, you...
You'd better...
You'd better go.

You're not
supposed to be here.

How long have you
been down here?

I've always
been here.

I'm Geoff.

I'm Drake.

Here.
Give me that.

Seven lashes
to anyone caught
without their tunic.

Those men from the East
are still waiting, Lord.

Show them in.

Please.

KWAN: Thank you
for seeing us.

Not at all.
It's an honor.

We are on a quest
related to the arrival
of the two-tailed comet.

Well, you don't
have much time.

According to
my star charts
and calculations,

the comet will return
one week from today.

What do you hope
to accomplish?

We seek the dragon
of the prophecy.

OSRIC: Hmm. A noble,
though nonsensical mission,

since nothing
is left of dragons
but their legend.

Respectfully.

I saw a dragon's claw
just last night.

Did you?

Friar Peter claimed
it belonged
to Draco himself.

But can we be sure?

All this talk of dragons
and prophecies

will frighten
the common people.

They're terrified
of dragons,
with good reason.

For your own safety,
you should leave
this kingdom tonight.

Stefan, see them safely
to the border.

(BELL TOLLING)

(OWL HOOTING)

MANSEL:
Back at the monastery,
Geoff visited the dungeon

every chance he got.

I suspect he hoped
that knowing Drake

would somehow lead
to adventure and fame.

Geoff must have been
sorely disappointed

to learn he had
befriended a dragon

who had no idea how
to fly or breathe fire.

Oh, come on, Geoff.
Your tunic doesn't
look that bad.

I hate this thing.

Itches
and it's the color
of worm vomit.

That's not the color
of my vomit.

The Old Code
doesn't say anything

about what
you've got to wear
to become a knight.

Well, I've got about
as much chance
of becoming a knight

as I do of convincing you
to come outside.

Friar Peter
made me promise

that I would
never go outside.

You're a dragon.
Act like one.

Hey.

Here. Allow me.

(TOLLING)

(DOOR OPENS)

It's Friar Peter.
(GASPS) Oh, no.

Oh, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no.

He can't find
you down here.

(WHISPERING) Hide.

Drake?
Yes?

I have sad news.

Mansel?

What?

What is it?

Friar Peter is gone.

Where did he go?

He went to heaven.
Do you know
what that means?

Oh, yes.
Did it hurt him to die?

I don't think so.
He seemed fine yesterday,
but he was old.

This morning
he just didn't wake up.

He was very fond of you,
you know.

I know I am not
Friar Peter,

but I will do my best
to take care of you.

I promise.

Thank you, Mansel.

(GROANING)

I was just talkin'
to him.

I can't believe he...

I don't feel
like talking now.

I'd like to be alone.

(HORSE WHINNYING)

It's that stable boy
from the monastery.

MAN: Oh, let's
pay him a visit.

Up, up, up.
(WHINNIES)

Whoa.

Hi. I saw you
yesterday.

I'm sorry I didn't stop
to meet you.

I'm Roland.

I'm Geoff.
MAN: Geoff.

Um, how was the castle?

Old and stuffy,
but you know how it is.

Well, I hardly ever
go there anymore.

You've got a sword.

(MEN CHUCKLING)

You want to try
your hand with us?

Sure.

MAN: (CHUCKLES)
The stable boy's
not bad.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

We're just practicing.

(PLANKS CREAKING)

(GRUNTS)

(MEN LAUGHING)

If we weren't practicing,
you'd be dead, stable boy.

Now, lower your eyes.

Peasants should never
meet the gaze
of their betters.

(MEN MURMURING)

(MEN LAUGHING)

So, this is what
it's like outside.

Drake!

You had to
come out here now,
didn't you?

(BELL TOLLING)

I never got
to say goodbye
to Friar Peter.

He was the only one
who knew about dragons.

You're lucky
to have had him
as long as you did.

But my heart hurts.

You won't feel
this bad forever.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

(CLUCKING)

Today I make
two edicts

in accordance
with the Old Code.

To defend our helpless
and uphold our weak,

those people wearing green,
beige and brown tunics

must be indoors
one hour after sunset.

Time for
your evening tonic, Sire.

OSRIC: And from
this day forward,

only the words of truth
will be spoken
in our kingdom.

(CROWD APPLAUDING)

Who does Osric
think he is?

Next thing you know,
he's gonna be telling
people what to think.

If they wanna
let him do that,
he probably can.

Well, not me.

You're throwing
your tunic away?

I don't think
that's a very good idea.

Let's fly away
from here.

But I don't wanna fly.

Of course
you want to fly.

What do you think
those wings
of yours are for?

Hmm.

You see
those mountains?

Beyond those are...
Are other kinds of people

and treasure
and adventure
and glory.

(GEOFF CONTINUES SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY)

KWAN: Hmm?

So he lives.
The stars didn't lie.

(URGING HORSE)

MAN: Those foreigners
had to come back this way.

They can't be far.
Let's split up.

(ALL URGING HORSES)

MAN: This way!

(GEOFF SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

KWAN: He's a very
young dragon.

We must not
allow sentiment

to interfere
with our mission.

That boy was
at the monastery.

And then we could come back
and be more famous
than Bowen and Draco.

(GROWLING)
All you have to do is just
open your wings and jump.

I'm not going anywhere.
I'm staying right here.
I like it here.

If it's so easy,
why don't you show me
how to do it.

You know,
it would have been
better for everybody

if I was the dragon
and you were
the stable boy.

DRAKE: Go ahead.
I'd like to see that.

Stupid dragon.

Oops.

He's got no tunic.

Let me read
your minds.

You wanna know
why I'm not
wearing my tunic.

Yeah.
Well, let me
tell you...

The boy can take us
to the dragon.

It's a funny story,
actually.

You see,
today was the day

when all the monks
clean the privies.

GUARD: What's
he take us for?

And old Friar Gustav
must have thought
that my tunic

(LAUGHS) was a rag
or something,

because he used it
to wipe up...

Seven lashes
for the tunic

and ten for the lie.

(MEN MURMURING IN AGREEMENT)

We seem to have
lost our way.

Perhaps you can point us
in the proper direction?

Lord Osric told you
to get out of town.

Now, the only direction
I'll show you

is toward
the castle dungeon.

(GRUNTS)

Take him!

Be gentle with them.

(GRUNTING)

(BOTH GRUNTING)

GUARD: Come on!
Come on!

(SCREAMING)

You're a girl?

I'm Kwan.
This is Lian.

(MEN YELLING)
(HORSES APPROACHING)

We should leave
this area.

GUARD: This way!

Get him!

Drake! Drake!

I'm being followed.
You gotta hide.

If the guards see us,
we're dead.

Dead?

Dead?
I don't wanna die.

What's happening to you?

Oh, my. (GROANS)

After him!

(WHINNIES)

(GRUNTS) Hello again.

Nice day to run
the horses, huh?

Where are
the foreigners?

I don't know.
They disappeared.

No one can
just disappear,

unless I make them.

All right. I give up.

Take me to
the dungeon now.

You're not getting off
that easy.

(SCREAMING)

(ROARING)

(SCREAMING)

(WINGS FLAPPING)

I've got you.
It's all right.

Drake, you're flying.

Of course
we're flying.

How do you think
we got way up here?

GEOFF: Ah, this is great.
Let's go up higher.

Hey!
DRAKE: Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

Okay. Let's swoop down
and scare the villagers.

Oh, no. This is
dangerous enough
as it is.

Don't sound so scared.
You've done
the hard part already.

DRAKE: Actually,
I think the hard part

is going to
be getting down!
(VILLAGERS CLAMORING)

Everybody, look out!

Next thing I know,
three Teregoths, just me.
WOMAN 1: What's that up there?

WOMAN 2: Look at that.

(WOMEN MURMURING)

WOMAN 3: A dragon!
(WOMAN GASPS)

DRAKE: Geoff, any ideas,
because I'm getting tired.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

GEOFF: Lean right.
DRAKE: Lean right.

No, left.
Whoa! No, you have
to lean right, too.

Get me the King's
fastest horses.

Look at that.
A dragon.

Four days till the coming.
This alters everything.

GEOFF: Flap
a little faster.

Whoa! Too fast.
Slow down!

The prophecy
must surely be true.

First Friar Peter's
sudden passing,
and now this.

It's all my fault,
Father.

OSRIC: Faster, men.
Faster.

(MEN URGING HORSES)

(GROANS)
Would you loosen up?
I can hardly breathe.

"Lean farther.
Fly faster.
Hold looser."

I can't think of
so many things at once.

GEOFF: Just slow down,
will you?

(SCREAMING)

(DRAKE GROANING)

GEOFF: I think that was
a little bit too slow.

(COUGHING)
(GROWLING)

We made it.
You were great.

DRAKE: Great?
Even though we crashed?

Absolutely!
You are a natural.

Thanks.

(MEN YELLING)
Uh-oh.

Who's smart idea was it
to scare 'em?

Uh, uh, uh,
start flapping.

Start flapping!
I can't flap anymore.

I'm exhausted.

(ANGRY SHOUTING)

(GROWLING) Watch out.

That got in my eyes.

Did you see that dragon
that just flew by,

headed east
toward the mountains?

Uh, he was big,
wasn't he?

Sure was fast.
Probably never
see him again.

Must be miles away
by now.

Uh, he went that way.

Hold him!

MAN: He's in there.

Put those down!

(PEASANTS MURMURING)

GEOFF: You heard him.
Put those down!

(MURMURING CONTINUES)

Can't you see
this is, uh...

Lord Osric,

chief advisor
to the King,
at your service,

(GROWLING)
Good dragon.

He's a bit shy.
His name is Drake.

I'm... I mean, we...
We are all so glad
to see you, Drake.

And your friend here?

Geoff.

An honor to make
your acquaintance.

When the King saw
your magnificent form
flying overhead,

he requested a favor
of service from you.

DRAKE: Me?

Indeed.

He wishes to appoint you
protector of the realm.

Geoff here will be
adjunct protector
of the realm.

Is that anything
like a knight?

A small step below.

Oh.
As you see,
I was right, milord.

(WOMAN GASPS)

You two again?

(SCOFFS) I thought you'd
be intelligent enough

to heed my advice
and leave our kingdom.

Guards.

No!

These are my friends.

(DRAKE GROWLS)

These people are
from far away.

See how different
they are?

(GROWLS)

They do not follow
the Old Code.

Do not trust them.

He is right.
We should go home.

(GASPS)
Mansel.

(GROWLING)

WOMAN:
Oh, he's moving!
MAN 1: Stand back.

Well, if they're
friends of Geoff's,
they're friends of mine.

MAN 2: He speaks!

Well, then,
they're welcome,
of course,

for as long as
you want them to stay.

The dragon will be
an enormous help

in protecting
our kingdom.

Nice of him to fly by
when he did.

His arrival was fate,
not courtesy, Sire.

With his help,
we can vanquish

the Teregoths
once and for all.

(PLAYING OUT OF TUNE)

I need you to
give me command
of the army.

(SPUTTERING)
Immediately.

(BLOWS HARDER)

I'll interpret that
as your royal approval.

MANSEL:
You have no idea
what you've done.

Of course I do.
I got Drake out
of that prison

that you and Friar Peter
locked him in,

and I taught him to fly,
and I got myself out
of the stables.

Only four more days.
All I had to do
was keep Drake safe.

Then he would
have been free to
live his life, but you...

Safe from what?
What's gonna happen
in four days?

A prophecy that
says an ancient evil

will take hold of this land
using a dragon's heart.

Ancient evil? Drake?
You got the wrong dragon.

He doesn't have to be evil
for evil to use him.

Drake is an innocent.
He's easily misled.

Don't worry.
I'll protect him.

Who's going
to protect him from you?

(SIGHS)

Excuse me, miss.

(GASPS)

Put those back.
This is a monastery.
We don't allow girls.

LIAN: Please,
no one must know that.

Hey, Mansel!

You knew about her,
didn't you?

Shame on you,
Mansel.

Don't you remember
the Abbott's sermon

about that
old tradition, sanitary?

Sanctuary.

Yeah.

Well, we should show her
some sanctuary.

You're a monk, Mansel.
That's what monks do.

All right.
All right.

Don't worry.
He'll keep your secret.

Thank you.

I'm glad
you're movin' in.

The food is lousy,
but the place

more than makes up
for that with
its lack of excitement.

You want help
with those?

I can handle them.

You know, I've never seen
anyone fight like you.

Don't touch
the ram head!

Bad luck.
Oh.

Well, you know,
I've never seen
anyone fight like you.

Where'd you learn
to do that?

Master Kwan taught me.

Do all girls fight
where you come from?

Do you like wearing
girls' clothes,

or is that why you're
dressed like a boy?

(LAUGHS)

(FOLK MUSIC PLAYING)

Can you believe
all this fuss?

That's the boy
who found the dragon.

WOMAN: Isn't he just
a stable boy?

Hey, Mansel,
have you seen Drake?

All right.
I'll keep looking.

Hey, you have fun,

'cause it's not like
gluttony is on that
seven deadly sin list too.

If it isn't that
fencing stable boy
at the castle at last.

Well, your tunic
doesn't seem
so great now, does it?

You only have that tunic
because you're friends
with the dragon.

Without him,
you are still a peasant.

Roland,

Geoff's well on his way
to becoming a knight.

Isn't that true,
Roland?

And what do you get if
you don't tell the truth
in our kingdom?

Ten lashes.

One more word
and I'll have
to double that.

Come with me.

You've handled
swords before.

None like this.

Then, shall we?
En garde.

MANSEL:
As the time grew near
for Kwan and Lian

to test the purity
of the dragon's heart,

the gravity of what
they might have to do

weighed heavily
upon them.

A shot through the heart
with this poison

will kill him
fast and clean.

If he fails,
he will feel no pain.

Unlike all the dragon
my great grandfather
murdered.

If you allow
your misplaced guilt

to affect you
at the pivotal moment,

you will doom
us all, child.

Would you prefer
if I...

No.

This is my burden.
I will do what I must.

I just pray that
Drake passes this test.

(GRUNTING)

You have natural talent.

You deserve
special attention, my boy.

Perhaps you'd consider
taking rooms here
at the castle.

Me live here?

That way, I could
tutor you personally.

Where can
my guards collect
Drake's belongings?

Drake's?

I assumed you and him
were a team.

Well, I think he'd be
too scared to leave
the monastery.

Poor creature.

We wouldn't want to
make him uncomfortable.

I'm sure you can
convince him to
make regular visits.

I'm sure
he'd like that a lot.

What do you think
it would take
for a stable boy

to become a knight?

Now come
at me faster.

The most fundamental
attribute of a knight
is his commitment!

He should want it
more than anything else.
More than wealth.

More than adventure!

(SIGHS)
More than friendship.

Do you want it
that bad?

Yes, I do.

Huh.

You'll make a positively
heroic knight.

It's written
in the stars.

(GROWLING)
This is what
I wanted you to see.

It is a ritual mask based
on the most famous dragon
in the East.

But it looks so angry.

KWAN: This amulet

has been imbued
with all the wisdom
of the ancient dragons.

If you do as I say,

you will receive
all that knowledge
in an instant.

DRAKE: I've always dreamed
of learning about dragons,

but how can I possibly
learn so much all at once?

KWAN: You must open
your most vulnerable spot,
your heart,

to the dragon's mouth,

then touch the amulet,
and the wisdom
will be yours.

DRAKE:
Open up my heart?

Oh, you mean

like...

Like this?

Just touch the amulet.

(HEART BEATING)

Drake!

Isn't there another way
for me to learn?

I... I could teach you,
but that would take years.

(BIRDS CAWING)

I don't want to touch
that thing. It's evil.

(SIGHS)

Mmm.

(GASPS)

What are you doin'
to my dragon?

Nothing.
Everything is
all right now.

That is
most inappropriate.

MAN: Get your
dragon portraits!

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

Drake! Kwan said
you passed some
kind of test,

so he's gonna
teach you all
the old dragon secrets.

And I've got Osric
practically begging me
to learn how to be a knight.

Isn't it great?

Look what I brought you
from Osric's library.
DRAKE: What?

Books about dragons
and knights.

I do not trust him,
nor do I trust
this Osric.

The danger is
still great.

We must stay close
to the dragon until
the comet has passed.

DRAKE: I've seen
these stars before,

through the grate
in my room.

They always made me
feel better somehow.

Those are the stars
of the constellation Draco,

the souls
of your ancestors.

DRAKE: Tell me more.

KWAN: A long time ago,

dragons ruled
the earth.

When people appeared,
dragons saw their
potential for good

and shared
their dragon wisdom,

pledging to
watch over humans
and help them grow.

The souls of dragons

who fulfilled
that pledge became stars.

Their spirits are
still up there

comforting anyone
who cares to look.

Like a dragon heaven.

KWAN: Exactly.

The last soul to join
was a mighty dragon

who shared his heart
with a prince

who was wounded
in battle.

While the dragon lived,
the prince was invincible,

sharing the
dragon's strength.

Really?

And his every pain.

Oh.

KWAN: A dragon
must be very cautious

before sharing his heart.

If the human's heart
is a corrupt one,

the dragon can
lose his place
in heaven forever.

DRAKE: That's awful.

(GROWLING SOFTLY)

GEOFF: Drake,
look at this.

DRAKE: Why is that dragon
chewing on a cow?

Looks like dinner to me.

DRAKE: Dinner? Hmm.

Come along, girl.

(BELL DINGING)

(COW MOOING)

(COW MOOING LOUDLY)

Where'd you go?

(GROANS)

My cow.

(LIAN YELLS)
(GRUNTS)

LIAN: (LAUGHING) Not bad
for your first lesson.

Now attack me again.

When exactly do I get
to throw you?

(DOG BARKING)
(HORSE WHINNYING)

DRAKE: Geoff!

Sorry I'm late.

(BURPS)

Excuse me.

Oh. Cow breath.

DRAKE: What are you
gonna teach me first,
Master Kwan?

Teach him to
blow fire now.

No, breathing fire
is dangerous.

(GRUNTS)

Stop being
such a monk, Mansel.

How does
he breathe fire?

KWAN: First,
you must learn to
open your fire lung.

Inhale through
your nose

and concentrate
on passing the air
deep in your throat.

Fill your lungs.
It will sound like this.

(SNORTING)

You try.

(INHALING DEEPLY)

Something's wrong.

Get down. Turn that way
so you don't hit the mill,

then let it
all out!

(PEOPLE SCREAMING)

(DOG BARKING)
(HORSES NEIGHING)

(LOUD EXPLOSION)

You can call him
protector of the realm,
but he destroyed my mill!

He can't go around
plucking up cows and
flying off with them.

OSRIC: I can see you're
both very distressed.

I'm glad you came
directly to me
about this.

Fix your mill.

Buy yourself
a new cow,
and remember,

our dragon is the last
of a magnificent race.

He deserves our
utmost respect. Hmm?

Dragon lover.

Peasants. Pay them
no bother, lad.

Small minds see
what they wish

and require guidance
to understand the truth.

Now, let us go outside
and see Drake

so you can both tell me
what really happened
at the mill, hmm?

Drake didn't want to come.
He's too embarrassed.

Kwan tried to teach him
how to blow fire,

but it came out
the other end.

You left him
with Kwan.

And what else does
the old man plan
on teaching Drake?

I don't know exactly.

Something about
all the wisdom

of the ancient dragons,
I think.

Bring the old man
to me at once.

Yes, my lord.
It shall be done.

DRAKE: No. No, no.
This can't be right.

All these knights are...
Are hurting dragons.

GEOFF: Drake!

Sorry I didn't
come home last night,

but look what
Osric gave me.

Weren't we supposed to
go flying this morning?

Well, Osric has a lot
to teach me if I'm gonna
become a knight.

We'll fly tomorrow.
Geoff,

you don't plan
to be like the knights
in this book, do you?

Sure.
Just like them.

Come on. Kwan and Lian
are gonna teach you
something new today.

Is there something wrong
with the air up here?

Well, if Friar Peter had ever
let you open your shutters
in the winter, you'd know.

It's fog.

Friar Peter didn't
want him to catch cold.

We should go back
to the monastery
before Drake gets sick.

Breathing ice is
an old dragon secret

that few were able
to master.

That's him. This way.

You have a sense
of your fire lung now.

Your ice lung
is beside it.

Do you know how
to generate sputum?

What?
He means do you
know how to spit?

Well, then why
didn't he say so?

Like this, Drake.

(SPITS)

Ah.

That's very good.

Sputum expelled with air
from your ice lung
will come out frozen.

Sounds simple to me.

You don't even have
an ice lung.

I don't have wings either,
but I figured out
how to land.

I will not stand by
and let you berate him
like that.

What are you
gonna do, Mansel?

Whip me
with your tassel?

DRAKE: I can't make spit.

Just suck on your tongue,
but don't swallow.

(SUCKING)

Oh, come on.
You did that on purpose.

DRAKE: I got some spit
in my mouth.

Open your ice lung
and blow!

(INHALES)

Mansel, duck!
What?

(GASPS)

Oh, no.
I've killed him.

LIAN: Mansel?

Are you all right?

I'm going back
to the monastery
before I catch my death.

Here.
Take my coat.

Thank you.

(LAUGHS)

Got to get my anger
under control,

or something bad's
going to happen.

(GRUNTING)

You're coming with us,
old man.

LIAN: Drake is
pretty disappointed.

GEOFF: Well,
he shouldn't be.

Didn't Kwan say
that most dragons
can't breathe ice?

Geoff.

Geoff, he is
disappointed in you.

In me?

Why, 'cause I
didn't go flying
with him this morning?

I have more important things
to do if I'm gonna be...

Don't you know what
a miracle it is
Drake even exists?

Years ago,
a dragon named Griffin

led a rebellion
against our imperial city.

When virtuous dragons
captured Griffin,

they took his heart
as punishment and
placed it in here.

This is
the withered heart

of the betrayer
of the dragon pledge.

GEOFF: That's
a dragon's heart?

The virtuous dragons
brought this amulet
to the Emperor Kuo-Fan

as proof that the evil
had been destroyed.

But by then,
the Emperor
was too fearful.

He killed every dragon
in the East.

Drake is the last
of his kind.

He is more alone
than you could
possibly imagine.

JUGGLER: Now,
watch again closely.

Toss smooth and easy.
Like this.

Now try it again,
Sire.

Better every day,
Sire.

(CHUCKLES)

Now open wide.

My lord.

OSRIC: Ah, Master Kwan.

How nice of you
to visit.

If you could just
stay there for a moment,

I have some vital affairs
to discuss with the King.

That's enough
of your dalliance
for tonight.

Now, put your
official seal on this.

What is this?

An order
of succession, Sire,

granting me your lands
and powers

in the unlikely event
of your premature death.

Oh, is that all?

Now, off to bed
with you.

Good night, Osric.

Sleep well, my King.

Tomorrow's
an important day.

For when the comet arrives,
this charade will end.

Oh, yes, Master Kwan!

Stefan, how could you
be so rude?

Take that old sack
off our honored
guest's head.

(PEOPLE GASPING)

I guess you weren't
expecting me.

My mistake.
I'll take care of it.

Ah.

You've served me loyally
for many years.

Is that not right,
Stefan?

Yes, sir.

And in all that time,
have you ever made
a mistake before?

No, my lord.

OSRIC: Watch closely,
monk.

(GROANING)

(WHIMPERS)

I won't tell.

I swear by the holy rood
I won't say a thing.

That's right.
Just like your King.

You won't say
a single coherent thing.

Now off to the dungeon
with you, like
a good little monk.

MANSEL: It's hot in here.

You are all incompetents!

I must do this myself.

Take the guards
to the monastery
for Kwan.

I'll meet you there
with my knights.

(ROOSTER CROWING)

Tonight will bring an end
to our deceptions.

This disguise has
served me well.

I am comfortable here.

Morning.

New trouble approaches.

(HORSES WHINNYING)

GUARD: All of us for
one old man and a boy?

The old man and his son
are coming with us.

This has to be
some kind of a mistake.
I'll go talk to Osric.

You're not
in charge here, squire.

We shall be
gone tomorrow.

You'll be gone now!

(ALL YELLING)

(SCREAMING)

(CHUCKLES)

I might have known
you'd end up

with the rest
of the swillage,
stable boy.

(GROANING)

Go to the cart.
Pull the ram's head.

(YELLING CONTINUES)

GUARD: Regroup! Regroup!

(GUARD YELLING)

(HORSE WHINNYING)

Stop this at once!

Told you it was
a mistake.

There is no mistake.

Until the comet is passed,
Kwan and his ward will be
my guests at the castle.

No. We must stay
with Drake.

But I thought you said...
OSRIC: Geoff.

These people are not
like you and me.

What do we really know
of their intentions?

This is in Drake's
best interest.

Don't you agree?

All right.

Mmm-mmm.
GUARD: Come on.

Let's go.

You too.

Now, where is Drake?

It's time
for him to assume
his responsibilities

as protector
of the realm.

The Teregoths
have attacked
our border house.

All the knights
of the realm
are needed.

(MEN YELLING)

OSRIC: Onward, men!
For King, country,
and the Old Code!

Come on, you.

I'm hot.
Does the Abbott know
how hot it is down here?

Probably doesn't care.

Old bully never
lets anyone do
what they want.

Well, I'll talk
as loud as I can!

(SHUSHING)

Got to be quiet
all the time.

(LAUGHING)
(YELLS)

(EXCLAIMS IN FEAR)

I know you.

Did you know
your son is a girl?

(CHUCKLING)

They don't allow girls
in the monastery.

But I won't tell
if you don't.
I like girls.

Hmm.

(GROWLS)

(SOFTLY) Geoff,
I don't like
the looks of this.

This is exactly
the kind of adventure
we've been talking about.

Drake, this is
my big chance.
Don't let me down.

OSRIC: Drake, stay here
and guard our backs.

Be careful, Geoff.

Follow me. Stay close.

The Teregoths killed
our border guards.

OSRIC: Quiet.
Something's wrong.

(WINGS FLAPPING)

Ambush!

(YELLING)

(GROWLS)

(SNARLING)

(GRUNTS)

Geoff!

No!

(GROANS)

(YELLING CONTINUES)

(SCREAMING)

(GROANING)

(SCREAMING)

Excellent job.

(HORSE WHINNYING)
Geoff! Look out!

No!

(GROANING)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

Geoff,

tell Drake
to give me his heart.

(GROWLING)

How bad is he hurt?

You've got to share
your heart with him.

Are you sure?

Hurry. He's dying.

He saved your life.
I'll try.

(HEART BEATING)

Wait! Stop!

What?
Something's wrong.

He's not really hurt.
He set us up.

(GRUNTS)
OSRIC: Grab him!

I would have
knighted you tonight.
DRAKE: Let him go!

But there's no valor
in you, stable boy.

No! No!
Don't hurt him!

Give me your heart,
or he dies.

(YELLING)

DRAKE: Come on, Geoff!
Run!

After them!

Let's go!

(GRUNTING)

Oh, no.

GUARD: He's down!

DRAKE: Geoff, get down!

(ALL SCREAMING)

Whoa.

It is my destiny
to become king

and rule over man.

By all the stars
in heaven,

I will have
that heart tonight!

(LIAN HUMMING)

(BURPS)

(HUMMING CONTINUES)

Who are you?
How did you
get in here?

(BLOWS)

I just woke up
and was here.

Where's the monk
and the boy
and the old man?

(SHUSHING)
Uh, who?

Come here!

Put your hands
through the bars.

(GROANS)

(CHUCKLES)

Come on. They need us
at the front gate.

Mansel!

Hello? (CHUCKLES)

Do you have
the ingredients
to brew an antidote?

Yes.
(BUBBLING)

(SNIFFING)

Black lotus.
He must have been
to the Orient.

You were right not
to trust Osric
and the boy.

Though it was insolent
of me to point it out
so boldly, Highness.

You haven't called me
that in a long time,
Master Kwan.

Oh, you will grow
accustomed to it again
soon enough.

Drink this, Mansel.

This way, Sire.

(LIAN HUMMING)

What's that sound?
It's music.
I like music.

GUARD: You're not
supposed to be...

(FIGHTING)
(GUARDS GROANING)

Highness.

But have I not had
my medicine?

This is a new potion,
Highness.

It will clear
your head.

(GASPS)

GUARD 1: Surround 'em!

GUARD 2: Take this side.

You came here looking
for the dragon
and found him.

Now, I must find him,
and time grows short.
Where is he?

I have been
your honored guest all day.

How could
I possibly know?

(GRUNTING)

(SCOFFS) A girl.

You look familiar.

Perhaps you met
one of my relative

while you were
gathering herbs
to poison your king.

The amulet of
the Chinese Emperor
Kuo-Fan.

KWAN: I understand now.

So, it is you!

Who, Master Kwan?

In the flesh.

(GROANING)

Throw the amulet
in the fire!

(YELLING)

(GROANS)

I thought
this was destroyed.

Daughter of the house
of Kuo-Fan.

On the night
of my destiny,

I repay you
for your ancestor's sins!

No!

(GASPS)

(GROANING)

I have failed you.

Kwan, now... (SHUSHING)

You are my loyal servant,

my wise master

and my closest friend.

(SNIFFLING)

GEOFF: Hurry, Drake!

The prodigal
dragon returns.

You'll be pleased
to know you can
keep your heart

as the little Empress here
was kind enough

to provide me
with this.

Murderer!

He killed Master Kwan,
and he's about...

Silence!

Kuo-Fan was
the murderer,

as was Bowen!

Bowen was a knight
of the Old Code.

I've shown you
the true meaning
of the Old Code.

It's a way
to control people
weaker than you!

No, Bowen's real legacy
was written in the blood
of dragons.

But one solitary dragon

escaped Bowen's wrath
and fled to the East.

A dragon who learned
that the pledge
to serve mankind

was nothing more
than a cruel joke!

Oh, oh, he sought
his revenge,

but in the end,
his heart too was...

Plundered.

And he was cursed

to live out his life

in the form
he hated most.

As a man!

(GRUNTING)
(DRAKE GROWLS)

But tonight...

(GRUNTING)

Tonight that curse
is ended.

(PEOPLE GASPING)

(HEART BEATING)

(GROWLS)

(BEATING)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(RUMBLING)

The heart of the prophecy
was never Drake's.

It was Griffin's.

(GROANING)

(PEOPLE MURMURING)

(PEOPLE SCREAMING)

(GROWLING)

Drake, child.

Come.

There's another dragon?

GRIFFIN: Little brother,

we must teach mankind
their place
as our servants.

Come to me, and we'll
fulfill the comet's
prophecy together.

You called me brother.

GRIFFIN: Come.

I'll teach you
what it really means
to be a dragon.

Drake, don't go!

That's it, brother!

Geoff, I'm not alone.

Drake, listen to me!

I know that I hurt you,
and I'm sorry,

but he's going
to enslave
mankind forever.

Get out of
Drake's way!

(GRIFFIN ROARING)

Geoff!
DRAKE: Geoff!

(PEOPLE CLAMORING)

If it wasn't for Geoff,

I would've
given you my heart
and lost my soul.

He's my real brother!

Poor choice
of siblings, Drake.

(ROARING)

(EXPLOSIONS)

(BOTH GROWLING)

(GROANING)

Drake, use your tail!

GRIFFIN: You'll pay
for that, peasant!

Ice? How did you...

(SCREAMING)

(GASPS)

Oh!

Geoff! We made it!

Geoff?

He's gone.

Step away.

Mansel,
what are the words?

Of my heart

to make you whole...
DRAKE:
To make you whole...

BOTH: Its strength
to purify your weakness.

(HEART BEATING)

(BREATHING DEEPLY)
(LIAN GASPS)

Geoff.
(GRUNTING)

GEOFF: What happened?

My heart hurts.

You mean,
our heart hurts,

but it won't feel
this bad forever.

MANSEL: And so,
evil was vanquished,

and the Old Code
restored.

Lian returned to
her royal duties
for a time,

while I came home
to the monastery

and was awarded guardianship
of Brother Gilbert's scrolls.

A life of prayer
and devotion
was mine at last,

but it was
a great deal quieter
than I remembered.

As for Geoff
and Drake,

they finally had what
they'd really wanted
from the start.

A brother, a family.
