Ok so I said I was going to do this story some point in early 2019 however I have had a change of mind (not a surprise really) This is because the amount of Spyro and Cynder content. This will be a nice retake on the entire Legend of Spyro trilogy and will have lots of nice scenes in it, I plan on doing 3 separate books 1 for each of the three games and I will attempt to update this every Thursday, but I may get lazy XD. Anyway, enjoy my prologue of my new story.

The Legend of Spyro and Cynder

Chapter 1- Prologue

The Starless night glared down upon the temple, where all the dragon races eggs go to before they hatch, Four Dragons guarded these Eggs with their lives as it was their duty however, they protected it even more than before now because of a very special egg. It was purple, which symbolised that the dragon within would be a purple dragon.

The purple dragon is said to have powers which are greater than any other dragon race since they can wield all four of the primary elements, while normal dragons can only use 1 of these elements. The elements where Fire, Ice, Electricity and Earth and each element had a guardians, dragons which have mastered the element that they wield, they were teachers and protectors and their primary purpose was to guard the dragon species eggs during the Year of the Dragon against every and all evil, but that all changed on one faithful night which changed the dragon race forever.

The four guardians where lying down inside the hatchery of the temple to protect them from the dark master's forces who have recently arose, Ignitus the Fire guardian was sitting near the earth guardian, Terrador who were both sitting the closest to their treasure purple egg which can only hatch once every ten generations, eagerly waiting for any sign of the egg hatching. While the other two guardians the ice guardian Cyril and the lighting guardian Volteer sat on the opposite side of the room, the closest to the Jet-black egg which looked unusual compared to the rest of the eggs which where a vary of different colours, but none of them were black.

"I have a bad feeling about tonight, there are no stars decorating the night sky while every other night had stars" Ignitus said this to the other guardians who where in the room. Terrador who was a close friend of Ignitus looked at Ignitus and said gruffly "I feel it too it's like something is wrong with the very air." Volteer then said in his usual fast manner "I have to agree with you Terrador there is something erratic, askew, astray with the very feeling around us." Cyril just glared at Volteer and said, "can you not stop that incessant wagging tongue of yours from speaking normally?" Volteer was about to say something but Cyril interrupted again and said "if you are all so worried, I will just go and look outside the balcony because after all Ice is the most superior element of them all. Volteer just said as Cyril left "can that stubborn dragon stop saying that his element is superior to the others, his ego is getting bigger than his head.!"

A few minutes had passed, and the Ice Guardians still had not returned, Ignitus said "he should be back by now the balcony isn't that far away" soon as Ignitus said that Cyril came charging downstairs, panting and said "The… dark … forces…. Are… he- "Cyril was cut off from finishing his sentence when a great ape jumped on him and knocked him unconscious.

After that happened all the guardians got into a battle position, Terrador created an earth wall to block off the onslaught of forces and his yelled "Ignitus get the purple egg out off here! They are here to destroy it!" Ignitus said "but what about you two you surely cannot take them on by yourselves and with Cyril knocked out" Terrador just yelled in a voice which demanded authority "I said get it out of here we will try to buy you some time" reluctantly Ignitus ran to the podium where the egg was stored and took it in his front right paw and ran out the back exit from the hatchery just as the forces broke through the earth wall.

Ignitus ran to the silver river and frantically searched for a suitable thing to carry the egg downstream safely and he saw the top of a mushroom cap, Ignitus got the mushroom cap and placed it on the water and put the egg on it and pushed it gently saying "May the ancestors watch over you, may they watch over us all on this dark night."

With that he turned towards the way he came and ran back to the hatchery to save his fellow guardians. When he returned the very sight made his blood run cold, the two remaining guardians where knocked out and seemed to have been overpowered and all the future hatchling eggs, had all been destroyed, all but an ebony black one. Ignitus leaped at it in a last-ditch effort to save it but he was immediately knocked to one side by a giant monster of an ape, the last sight he saw was the egg being snatched by one of the apes and then his sight went black.

However, the purple egg was safely out of range as it continued to float downstream towards a swamp. When it finally came to a stop it had attracted the attention of two dragonflies, one was blue and had a muscular build and was male, his name was Flash, and the other dragonfly was pink and green and was female her name was Nina, soon as they approached the egg, it began to move and crack as the two dragonflies watched in awe they wondered what creature it could be that came out of the egg, what they saw was a small purple dragon, who had was quite big for a hatchling and had golden horns and chest and underbelly, it had small wings which where orange and had a leaf shaped spade on the end of the tail which was also gold, there were also small golden spines that ran from the top of their head all the way down to their tail.

Nina asked Flash "what is it's gender if it even has one" Flash instantly recognised the body shape and said confidently to Nina his wife "it's a male from the shape of its body but I do not know what creature it is." Nina move closer to the hatchling who looked at her wagging his tail, Nina said to Flash "I think we should adopt him he looks kind of cute" Flash smiled and said "are you sure you can handle them both? If you can then I will not argue with you, but he will need a name." Nina smiled and then thought for a moment and said, "His name is Spyro as our other child will be called Sparx."

Nina and Flash escorted the purple dragon who was called Spyro back to their home where their egg had hatched and Sparx was born."

Back at the temple it was daybreak and Ignitus woke up with a groggy start and looked around at the destruction, all the eggs had been smashed which meant the future of the Dragon race had been put at risk, he looked around for the other guardians but they where nowhere to be seen, he then heard a group of apes bickering amongst themselves saying "what should we do with the red one? Should we capture him like his friends" Another voice broke through the chatter and bellowed to the lesser "Yes capture him immediately." Ignitus knew they wanted him so he got to his four paws shakily and ran out of the temple, soon as he was far enough he opened his giant wings and took off to go into hiding uncertain of what will happen to the dragon race now that all their eggs had been smashed apart from the purple one and the black one which had been taken. Ignitus thought for a moment with a tear in his eyes "I am sorry young ones I have failed you, you have all been destroyed and the black ones fate is uncertain, but I hope the purple dragon comes one day to save us all and I am sorry Terrador, Cyril, Volteer it was my fault you were captured, may the Ancestors watch over us all on this grave day."

And it's a wrap, all the eggs have been destroyed and Ignitus has gone into hiding, what will become of the black egg? Find out next time.!
