So...I guess I'm not done writing about the purple dragon. There's a frickin' surprise.

How would you react to a reunion between mother and child? That's an easy question... right?

We'll see if you think that way later.

Only a few weeks after the fall of the Dark Master, and the world has already begun to heal. However, there are plenty of other wounds that will take time. This story will be different perspectives on how the world reacts to a simple reunion between a dragon and his lost family.

Family Reunion

Prologue (Cynder - part I)

The sounds of construction have filled the air for five straight days, but no one has complained about the hammering and the shouting of a thousand hard working Manweresmalls. In fact, hundreds of dragons actually moved back into the loud city in order to help with the rebuilding of their home.

Avalar was finally at peace, even if the damage to the war torn world was practically catastrophic and the noise to fix it deafening, the planet had finally found the quiet it needed.

Now, in one of the newest and more luxurious dwellings in Warfang, the reason the city still stands at all stares out the window to the Northern Gate.

"I can't believe this!" Spyro remarks excitedly, anticipating the moment the large door opens for an incoming convoy of nearly fifty dragons.

His purple eyes move away from the massive structure for a brief second, focusing to the only other thing he's looked at in the past hour, since hearing the incredible news from Terrador.

"Could it really be my family, Cynder?"

The scarlet red chest of the black dragoness beside him begins expanding and contracting rapidly, as Cynder can see the guards start the procedure to open the gate.

"I don't know, Spyro," she replies with difficulty, her mouth struggling to work, anticipating a reunion that could douse the only light in her life. The pain she has felt for almost a week begins consuming her, knowing what she has done in the past, and how she is treated by the dragons around here.

"I just hope I didn't hurt any of them."

Her fear-filled tone makes Spyro take notice, and quickly his paw has hers in a tight grasp.

"I told you...The Terror of the Sky caused all that damage, and she is dead." His eyes never blink, showing the focus he now has is only for her. "You are Cynder, the Hero of Avalar, and they will understand..."

Cynder pulls her paw from Spyro's grasp and quickly places it upon the small week old scar on her chest.

"Like they have here!" she cries, as this wound was delivered by an angry Earth dragon, and directly in the center of New Warfang's main square.

Hundreds of citizens watched with indifference as the Shadow dragoness was struck several times by a much larger opponent. No one coming to her aid except Spyro, whom had only left her alone for ten seconds.

Seeing her begin to shutter with fear, the purple and gold chested dragon grasps her tightly in his arms, then surrounds Cynder in a cocoon of his reddish-gold wings.

"Easy," he whispers in her ear, taking the chill of reliving the moment she thought she was going to die away, and replacing it with the warmth of his love. The same warmth that ended a one sided attack with prejudice and healed her injuries.

"You know I will never let anyone hurt you like that again."

Cynder knows he speaks the truth, as he has fought off several ambushes against the former Terror of the Sky. However, her shuttering increases, knowing she may lose her only protection.

"But what if I hurt you?" Cynder replies, her voice even softer than Spyro's whisper.

The purple dragon opens his wings, allowing the light from a roaring fire to glisten in the green eyes of his love, as he lifts her quivering chin with a gentle paw.

"Never." he replies, but Cynder's paw is quickly up from her side, then rested upon the round nose of the hero of her soul. Her eyes fill with tears, as she has full knowledge of the city these dragon are coming from, as it was the first city destroyed by the Terror of the Sky.

"Spyro... what if one of the many dragons... she killed... was a part of your family?" the black dragoness retorts, her voice now skipping as she cries uncontrollably.

Cynder's feelings of fear are confirmed as Spyro's eyes show indecision and her crying becomes more intense.

"You will hate me too...and I will have nowhere to go."

Well, Cynder is not looking forward to this reunion, I guarantee you that. There will be more to her story, as this is just the prologue.

And I don't care if you think it's mean how Warfang is treating her, cause that, sad to say, is life. I mean what if a mass murderer killed your family, then you were told that person has been given a pardon to live the rest of their life in peace. I would not be happy, and would try to beat the crap out of that person any chance I got.

There are others who will not be happy, and mom will be chapter one, as this was the whole beginning idea to the story. Seriously, how does a mother deal with losing her child to his mother.

Also, if you have an idea for a character whom would be influenced by this reunion, good or bad, I will try to make a segment for them. I will definitely be doing the thoughts of Spyro himself, Nina, his real Mom, and of course Sparx, but if you think of someone else I wanna hear it.

Thank you for reading, and please review.
