Disclaimer: I own nothing but my OC's and my ideas

Zeyra's POV

I sat in the shadows. Watching the other dragons and creatures talk and enjoy themselves in the Warfang. There was a dragon school now, and the temple was opened to everyone. It was summer and I haven't been in school yet.

After summer I would go...that should be fun. I lay down. No one really ever looked or talked to me. I was different, and the last time I tried mingling…well it didn't end too well.

I saw the chosen ones...Spyro and Cynder. Everyone goes goo goo over them because they defeated Malefor. I even sat up, but yet no one notices. When they first defeated him no one knew what to think, but then word got out that they defeated them.

After the crowd settled down I got up and walked over to the well. I bent down and started to take a drink. I looked at my watery reflection in the well, but then it shifted and I saw him. I shivered and splashed the water, making the image disappear.

I took a gulp and turned around and nearly died. Cynder was watching me. I lowered my gaze, and looked back up again and she was still looking. She wasn't very far away, and she was talking to Spyro.

I turned around, and tried to make a dash back to my 'official' corner, but ran into someone, I shrieked, and ran away. Well hopefully tomorrow wouldn't be like today...to close to someone noticing me.

Xx Twilight xX

Everyone was going to their houses. I have a small house but I only sleep in it, not big enough for anything but a mat, and I'm surprised I can still fit in it.

Twilight is when I get to move around, it's the only time when everything just dark enough that people won't be able to see who I really am. The temple was open all hours, and I like to find my way to the roof, and watch the sunset.

If you ask me, it's really easy to go unnoticed, and blend in after a while. I started walking towards the temple when I saw one of the Guardians named Terrador walking down the same street as me.

Every fiber inside of me scream run and hide in the grass or behind the pottery, but I was frozen, and it was too late to hide, because he already saw me, and was motioning me to come to him.

I took a deep breath, and stepped closer. I looked up at him, and he had a look of confusion on his face, "What's your name young one?" He asked.
"I-It's Z-Zeyra." I quietly said, looking at my talons in embarrassment.
I heard him chuckle, "How old are you? Because I think I would remember someone with your distinct looks, and voice."

I took a small step back and said, "I-I'm twelve almost thirteen. I'm not old enough to go to school."
He let out an hmm, and said again, "Twelve almost thirteen huh? Interesting, well maybe I know your parents. What are their names?"
"Mom's name is Asha..." said I.

Terrador raised a brow, "Hmm…I've heard of her, and your father?"
Lie you dummy. "I-I have no clue."
He sighed heavily, "Alright, well youngling let's go then."

Dyron's POV

Xx Somewhere in the woods xX

My eyes shot open, and I finally got a breath. I took in several large breaths before I could feel a horrible pain in my wing. I lifted my head to look and I saw an arrow in it. How long have I been knocked out? I tried to sit up, and it was terribly hard, then I remembered. Why I was supposedly dead. Why I'm still in this godforsaken place. And why an arrow was in my wing.

I ripped the arrow out, and roared in pain, but I healed it instantly. I smiled wickedly and walked over to a pool of water and looked at my refection. A dashing young black dragon with red eyes looked back at me. I haven't grown much; I'm still pretty large though. I expanded my wings, and heard several loud pops. I looked over and saw a mole collecting some berries.

"You mole," My voice was deeper than I remembered. He looked over, startled. I continued, "Come here." I was doing my best to hypnotize him, and he obeyed.
"Where am I?" I asked
"The woods just outside of Warfang." He said, slightly puzzled. I knew that.

"Who's your leader?" I asked again.
"Ignitus." He said plainly, "Didn't you know that?"
Ignitus is still alive? I smiled wickedly. "Thank you, kind mole." I smirked and said, "Where Warfang?"

He pointed west. "It's just that way, over the hills." I nodded and touched his forehead. He had a blank look and I left. I couldn't have anyone ruining my surprise visit could I?

Terrador's POV

She can't be his child can she? I mean…these occurrences have happened to students before where they've wielded dark abilities, but…can she be? Volteer saw me, and my claws scrapped the ground harder than before.
"Terrador, what lovely, extraordinary, marvelous —"

I put a paw up, and paused shortly, to keep myself from lashing out, and finally said, "Meet my new friend Zeyra." I pushed her out towards Volteer. He took one look at her and back up at me, and as soon as our eyes met I knew what he as thinking. I shrugged, "I don't know yet."

"Aren't you a little...cute, sweet, adorable—"
I hit Voleer's shoulder, and he realized what he was doing, "Oh right, we'll be hitting the boys off with sticks before long."

She rolled her eyes. "I was just looking for a room for her. Do you know where any are?" I asked.
Volteer thought for a moment. "Well when we found Spyro and Cynder after...um they got lost."
"I know what happened." She grumbled, "You don't have to hide anything from me."

Volteer winced and said, "Yes, okay I'll show you to your room." Volteer led the way. I saw some ice on the wall. Cyril, I will find you.

Volteer led Zeyra to her room and left. She jumped up on the bed, and curled up, and went to sleep.
She couldn't be the monster her father could she? I looked down at her and in the darkness her face twisted into Malefor's and I blinked it away. "Goodnight." I closed her door quietly. Hopefully we don't make her head swell.

Dyron's POV

Xx xX

I landed around eleven. I flew silently on the ground, and sniffed the air. I walked into the temple silently. I heard Volteer talking to a cheetah. "So there was this…child…and well I thought I saw…saw—"
For once in Volteer's life, he was at a loss for words.
"Who?" The cheetah whispered.

"Malefor. I literally thought he was standing right there. But then I noticed her eyes." A shiver went through the air. "Well she's sleeping here tonight. Ignitus is still very ill; you should go check up on him."

The cheetah nodded and scurried off. Volteer didn't notice me as he walked by. He's never been good at finding things I silently ran down the hallway, and looked into every door. (A\N: I guess it's like looking through stuff…IDK how to describe it) and finally I saw her. She was on her bed...crying?

She didn't see me as I snuck in. She finally cried herself to sleep and her breathing steadied. She didn't stir as I came closer. I looked at her, she looked so innocent. I smiled greedily. (A\N: SO I re-read this and was like HOLY SNAP, CRACKLE, AND POP! THAT'S CREEPY!' SO he's not smiling like THAT!)

She had a snarl on her face. She shook her head and spat out a ball of fire. I dodged it. Oh this is too easy.

I pulled out a green crystal and she absorbed it. I placed a paw on her arm. One of the abilities I picked up was absorbing others powers. It came in handy. My eyes glowed. I learned her powers…they were…unusual, fire, possession, fear, and death. "I am going to get my revenge on the guardians, and you're going to help me." And with that her eyes very slowly opened.

Cynder's POV

Xx spyro's cynder's and sparx's room xX

No I didn't see him in the square. I didn't. It was someone else. Yeah, it was a girl, but why haven't I ever seen her before? I thought I've seen every dragon in Warfang. Obviously I'm wrong. I should just forget about it.

Spyro lay in front of me. I touched our noses together. He opened his eyes very slowly, and he had a new twinkle I've never seen before. He kissed me one, two, three, four and FIVE times. I've never been so happy.

Spyro's POV

I kissed her five times. Her lips were like candy. I love her but what if she doesn't love me back? I swear I heard her say 'I love you' after we defeated Malefor. But could I have imagined it? I kissed her one last time and just sat there. "Spryo."
"Yes?" I replied.

"I-I...did you heard what I said after we killed Malefor?" I smiled. "Yeah..."
"Well...it's true..." She sighed. "Do you love me?" My heart broke. He doesn't believe I could love her?

"Yes! Cynder don't you ever believe otherwise." I exclaimed. She smiled really wide and her cheeks went slightly red.

I held her face between my paws and kissed her one last time...no two three four five six...seven more times. "Cynder," I whispered before going to sleep, "I love you..."

Terrador's POV

It was early in the morning. It was just dawn, Iliked to wake up early. I don't know why I just always have. I was told Zeyra made a lot of racket but finally fell asleep. Kids, never can just sleep in their beds can they? I should probably check on her. I opened the door quietly and peaked in. She was still asleep, and she opened her eyes when I came in. She looked really tired. "Whats wrong with me?" She asked.

She shook the covers off and collapsed back on the bed. "I-I feel so weak." She whimpered.

I examined her and couldn't see anything wrong. "Hmm...Maybe you just need a red and green crystal. That normally helps. There is a red crystal in the middle of the temple, I'll just take you there."

I picked her up and put her over on my back. She was so light. I finally made it to the red crystal; I gently let her drop to the floor and whacked the crystal until it all flooded to her. She took a deep breath and her eyes opened. "That's better." She stood up. "But I think I had a really weird dream last night."
"Okay. Go on." I said. Ignitus said that once you break the first barrier of ice, theoretically, then the rest is easy.

"At first I was walking through the...I think the well of souls but I don't know why, I got to the well and I heard this laughter. It really hurt my ears. When I turned around...well I think it was um...Malefor. He was telling me really weird stuff, like he thinks he's my dad. And I got really mad. I think I actually breathed fire.

"But right after that I heard someone whisper something right in my ear, I think it was something like, 'And you gonna help me' and it was so real it scared me, and I opened my eyes and I saw this dragon. He was black, his scales were at least...it got kinda blurry from there on...does that mean anything?"

I thought for a moment, and finally said, "I'm not a dream interpreter. Sorry...hmm...well I think it doesn't...just run along and enjoy yourself today." She nodded and walked off. This is happening faster than I thought. I should tell Ignitus.

Spyro's POV

When I woke up Cynder was gone, and my heart sank a little but Sparx laughed, "You're girlfriend went out to go wash herself. And don't think I wasn't watching when you two sucked face. It was pretty entertaining, and then you guys started all mushy and gushy and it was really funny. I'm surprised you guys didn't hear me laughing."

I shook my head, and said, "Wow Sparx, I didn't think you would be the kind to eavesdrop."

He laughed harder and nearly fell,"Oh Spyro do you not know me at ALL?"
I did know he would do something like that. Sparx will be Sparx. I stood up, and said, "Well I'm going to walk around town."

Sparx landed on my horn. "I'm going with you." I rolled my eyes, and walked out to the fountain.

Sparx hovered about my head. It was nine o'clock and more people came out. I saw a dark dragon looking into the fountain through the water. At first I thought I was imagining things, and I walked around it slowly. Then I saw her, she was just looking into the water. But really hard, ike she was concentrating really hard or something. I tried to see what she was looking at, but I didn't. "Are you alright?" I walked over to her and asked.

Zeyra's POV

"Are you alright?" I think I heard someone say that, but I couldn't look away. I saw the reflection again, I tried looking away, but I couldn't move. I was too scared, I looked to his eyes and then I felt a dizzy pleasure. It didn't feel right.

A dark presence engulfed me and I felt like I had no control. 'Give in to this Zeyra.' He said. I shook my head. 'No'
He pushed harder, 'You will do as I say!' A dark power shot out of me and went in all directions. I think I screamed or was that the people?

It caused an earthquake. I felt someone push me off the fountain, I couldn't tell what was real or not. My eyes stopped glowing and the last thought I heard was, 'See how much power you have?'

Xx In the library xX

I felt so bad, every inch of me hurt. I slowly opened my eyes and saw a bright yellow fairy hovering around my face. "Hey yo dragons, I think she's waking up."

They turned around. Even Ignitus was there...great I must have really screwed up big time. It was just him, Spyro and Cynder. Well this is awkward.

"Who are you?" Spyro demanded.
"I-I'm Zeyra." I said softly. Of course my shyness has to come up right NOW.
He stared at me his voice softened, "What exactly did you see in the fountain."

I tried to sit up, I wasn't hurting as bad as before, and there wasa red crystal near by.

I took a deep breath, and said, "At first I saw my reflection, but then it started to twist and shift and I couldn't look away. I tried, but I couldn't."
Cynder looked at me thoughtfully, "What did your reflection change too?"

I bit the inside of my cheek gently, and whispered. "Him..."
"Who's him?" Cynder asked again, taking another step towards me. Sparx was resting on Spyro's horn, and crossed his arms.

I looked at the ground. "Malefor..." I hated the way I said it. Ignitus shook his head, "And I thought things were just beginning to be able to go back to normal." I glanced up. And he continued, "And...what else happened."

I took a deep breath. "I saw this dark purple light start to close in on my peripheral vision, and then I heard a voice in my head. Then it just happened and the last thing I remember is it saying, 'see how much power you have?' And then I woke up here."
Spyro huffed, "Well why can't he just stay DEAD?"

Ignitus looked at Spyro carefully, "Just think of the good. This will be a very interesting tale to tell the hatchlings of your day. Imagine the looks on their faces." Ignitus looked out in the distance.
"But remember what he did the other times? Last time he split the Earth in half. In HALF!" Spyro shouted angrily. (A\N: I realize now this isn't how Spyro acts.)

"Spyro...I'm sorry but this isn't what we're here to talk about." Ignitus looked at me, "We're trying to figure out what to do with this one."

I heard the wind howling outside and rain was splashing against the roof and windows. I stood up. "Okay...so do I have a life sentencing for what happened today? Or community service?"

Spyro opened his mouth but Ignitus spoke before he did, "You have to help Spyro and Cynder when they go the Enchanted Forest to deliver a message to the cheetahs."

Hunter appeared, and he pulled out the message and put it back.

"You leave tonight." Ignitus said, "Well...I have some things to attend to…goodbye young one's." He left.

Spyro sat down, "You even know how to use your elements?" }
I shrugged. "Um...kinda...in a way…"
"Okay...then show me." Spyro said.

"In here?" I asked.
"No, out in a field." He said slightly annoyed.

Xx In a nearby field xX

Once it stopped raining, we made it out to the field. Spyro told me to get in a battle position. I did. "Now attack me." He said.

"What?" I said, getting out of my position.
"I said attack me. Now get back in your position." He said.
I did and waited.
"Anytime now," He said. We weren't even two feet away from each other. "Fine," I whispered.

I mustered up as much power as I could, and attacked him with a melee attack. He somehow knew my attack, easily dodged it and pinned me on the ground. He got off of me and said, "No, use your elements."

I sighed. "Geeez."

I belted out a piercing screech and red sound waves came out of my mouth and covered Spyro and he covered his ears. After it wore off he stood up. "Just...just use a normal element. Please..."

I giggled slightly, "But you said use an element."

"Just do it." said He.

I sighed, "Fine but don't say I didn't warn you," I blew out fire. He ducked and said, "Well...I think I've seen enough."
"Wait!" I said excitedly, "I have one more," A mischievous grin speed across my face. What was I doing?

I couldn't stop myself before it was too late. This wasn't me, I used possession and my soul jumped out of me and went into Spyro. I felt the presence again. Spyro shook and I saw out of his eyes. "Woah..." I said, "Wait, help this isn't m—" I was cut off. Great now Malefor has control of Sypro...once again I've screwed all of Avalar...
