Game on

Short bedtime story I came up with - the lady made me post it. I think it loses something in translation, but it's still ok :).

~~~~~~

Dirkpitt Thundergutt grabbed his clubs and headed down for the course. He stepped up to the first tee and placed a mithril tee into the ground and put a shining mithril ball ontop. He pulled out his driver and smiled, the mithril club gleamed in the darkness. Some days it was hard being a dwarf king. Dirkpitt lined up on the ball and swung. With a loud crack the gold ball shot off into the darkness like a shining mithril star. The mithril golf clubs had been a king day gift from the low king of the undermountain dwarves. They had a game scheduled next week and Dirkpitt needed to practice.

It was all going well up until the fourth tee. It was a long vicious dogleg to the left. Lava lakes on the right and a stalactite forest on the corner. Hardest hole on the course. Dirkpitt looked down the hole by the orange glow of the lava and stepped up to the tee. He wound up and let fly, just as the club head connected with the ball there was an explosion of smoke and flame at the end of the tee and a massive demon burst into view, all gleaming claws and dripping flames.

The mithril driver connected with the ball and it took off straight towards the foul demon that had just appeared. With a clink it bounced off the muscled arm and shot into the darkness of the cavern

"Muhahah", laughed the demon, "Your puny dwarf balls cannot hurt me. Prepare to die Dirkpitt!" the demon screamed in rage and launched himself at the dwarf king.

Dirkpitt watched the massive demon launching at him down the tee, smiled and tossed his cigar to the side. He wound back and let fly with his mithril driver. The head bashed throughthe demon's face and driving through it's skull. The demon's death scream revereberated through the caverns as Dirkpitt smiled, "How'd ye like me +5 driver demon?", he looked at the hole that the dissolving demon had burned into the end of the tee. "Gonna need a big sandbucket for this divot boys", he called out as he turned to look out in the darkness for where his ball had bounced, "Damn demons, i'll have an extra stroke on me card now."
