"Spyro, are you serious about leaving?" Elora asks him, still sad by the fact that he's going to move out of Avalar.
"This classroom's gonna feel empty without you." Bianca said as she slowly touches the classroom's wall.
"There must be another way to tell your parents that you wanna stay here, right?" Hunter suddenly enters the class, not wanting the dragon to go just like the others.
*Sigh* "Sorry, guys... But I can't. My dad thinks that Skylanders Academy is a more prestigous one than Avalar, but I still don't want to leave you guys..." The purple dragon answers them, looking down. "I even heard that Skylands is smaller than Avalar... That's also one of the reasons to why I want to study here instead."
A sad expression starts to form on the dragon's face. Although the other passengers are amazed about the flying train that they're on, all that Spyro is thinking is his friends. They've been best friends since 10 years, and now he's forced to leave them?
"This is the worst day ever..." He said to himself as he look out at the sky through the window next to him.
Spyro walks out of the school, still wearing his Avalar Academy handbag. He turns around to look at the building 1 more time before going far away from it.
...
"Spyro! Wait!"
A violet dragoness runs out from the building, quickly approaching Spyro. "Don't leave me here! I want to be with you!" She hugs him, crying uncontrollably. "Don't go!"
"Cynthia..." He pats her head, wanting her to calm down. "It's okay, we'll meet again soon..."
He takes out a piece of paper from his handbag and unfolds it, revealing a photo of him and Cynthia when they were 3 years old. The 2 of them are seen running around, chasing each other. Unlike all the others, Cynthia is the bestest friend that he could have. For him, losing her is just like losing the whole world.
"You were so fast back then, I can't even catch you." He lets out a small chuckle.
"Promise me, that wherever you are, whenever the time is, you will always remember me."
"Promise me, Spyro."
...
"I promise."
Suddenly, the purple dragon realizes that he's not on the train anymore. Instead, he's inside a limousine, with a white - cyan dragon in front of him, probably a little bit older than himself. Next to the dragon is an old woman, holding a brown covered book and wearing a black sorceress outfit.
He tries to talk, but somehow his body tells him to don't do anything and just listen.
"Welcome to the Velvet Room." The dragon starts speaking. "This room exists between dream and reality, mind and matter. It is a room that only those who are bound by a 'contract' may enter."
...
"And it seems that we have a guest with an intriguing destiny this time..." *Chuckle* He continues his last sentence. "I am the Chronicler, and I'm delighted to make your acquaintance." He grins sinisterly. "Why don't you introduce yourself?"
"I'm..." Spyro said to him. "Spyro. Spyro the Dragon."
"Hm... I see..." *Chuckle* "Now, let's see in to your future, shall we?" Suddenly, a deck of cards appears on the table in front of him. Then, one of the card flips by itself, revealing an image of a tower struck by a lightning. "It seems a terrible catastrophe is imminent... The card indicating the future beyond that is..." Another card flips, and reveals an image of a moon. "Hesitation and mystery... Interesting indeed. It seems that you will encounter misfortune at your destination, and a great mystery will be imposed upon you. In the coming days, you will enter a contract of some sort, after which you will return here. The coming year is a turning point in your destiny. If the mystery goes unsolved, your future may be forever lost. My duty is to provide assistance to our guests so that kind of thing never happens." The deck of cards the vanish. "Ah! I have neglected to introduce my assistant to you." The dragon turns his head around and faces the woman. "This is Kaossandra. She is a resident of this place, just like myself."
The woman smiles at Spyro, making him feel uneasy. "My name is Kaossandra. I am here to accompany you through your journey."
"We shall attend to the details another time. Until then, farewell..." The Chronicler said to him as the purple dragon's body start to fade.
We have arrived at Skylands station.
Spyro wakes up, realizing that he was fast asleep all that time. "Skylands? Wait, that's my destination!" In hurry he stands up from the seat and gets out of the train. "Okay, be friendly to your uncle, Spyro. Try to look like you're not saddened by going here..." He starts smiling. "Watch out, Skylanders Acadademy. Your new popular student is here!"
(Music: Sky's the Limit (Opening Version))
Glaciers of ideas, importing
To my friends then exporting
To the next, keep it open
We want no closing
Even without doubts, our thoughts can be dope and...
This mind trade, no one can stop
An act of thinking is terrible to stop
We just wanna change up, not drop
And my crew can rock it like up - rock
Life is tedious, when it ain't flowing
Copy and paste, constant defaulting
Put my courage to it, begin showing off
That's the way we wanna live
Keep going, yeah
What was so much of transparency
Turning to bright expectations
My instinct tells me to keep
Going together
(Going together)
It's breathtaking moments in life
Addicted to it, minds craving more and more
I'm believing you and I can do anything
We can change the world
Hey, Sky's the Limit, we can spread wings
To roadless travel, together we go
He walks down the stairs, walking to the parking lot to find his uncle. "What was his name again...? Iggy? Iguntus?" He tries to remember his name while holding the photo of him and Cynthia with his jaws. "Ignitus? Yes, that's it! His name is Ignitus!" Then, he accidentally lets the photo go out from his jaws. He looks at the photo flows away with the wind, and then it falls down on the ground. "Oh, great."
Suddenly, a violet dragoness walks to the photo and takes it with her jaws. She walks to Spyro and stares at him. "Is this yours?" The purple dragon nods. She then gives the photo back to him. He begins examining the dragoness. She looks similar to Cynthia, but there's something different with her. For example, unlike Cynthia, she's wearing a collar on her neck. It also seems that she's that silent type of girl.
"Thanks. This means a lot to me." Spyro smiles at her, making her confused.
"Why are you thanking me? All I did was just returning it back to you." She then walks away, leaving the purple dragon alone.
"Man, that girl IS interesting." He said to himself as he continues walking to the parking lot.
To be continued (after my exam).
