Disclaimer: I do not own Spyro the Dragon or any of the characters

A/N: Hello everyone my name is Eric Cortez and this is my first Legend of Spyro fanfic. My story will be similar to the actual plot to the 1st game and trilogy, but slightly different: Sparx will not be accompanying Spyro as he learns the truth about his past and will team up with my OC for the story.

Reviews and comment will be deeply appreciated.

The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning

Chapter 1

An elder voice could be heard as a shadowy figure had walked uneasily in the dark dimly lit cave, 'In the year of the the dragon, in a world beyond the reams, I, like the others, had awaited the birth of the dragon of whom the prophecies told...but the Dark Master had heard of the prophecies as well.' The shadow figure had stepped into the light and revealed itself as the elderly dragon Guardian and master of the Fire element, Ignitus. The dragon had opened his maw as he released a stream of searing fire towards a chamber door, granting him access into the heart of the Dragon Temple.

Ignitus had slowly and dishearteningly entered the chamber carrying all the unhatched dragon eggs, 'I should've hidden the eggs long before...but I...' The disheartened fire elder sadly glanced at the eggs and knew they would not survive the upcoming attack that would happen soon, 'I thought we ready...I thought they were safe...' Ignitus had struggled not to break down in tears as the unborn baby dragons in the eggs would never see the light of day or get the chance to life a live in a world without living in fear, because he had not hidden them for their protection, 'How wrong I was...' He had glanced towards the royal pedestal in the back of the room, with a purple tapestry with an insignia for the rare element that only purple dragons could tap into and master.

Ignitus could only sadly glance down at the purple egg resting on the pedestal, knowing the purple dragon whom would hatch from the egg. That was the entire temple shook and small boulders from the cave ceiling of the structure had tumbled down and Ignitus gasped as the ground had also shook as explosions could be heard outside from the tunnels. That was when his friend and fellow Guardian of Electricity, Volteer had entered the chamber, "Ignitus, quickly! Save them! The Dark Armies have arrived!" Ignitus had sadly glanced at the eggs, as he couldn't save all the eggs, he could only save the purple dragon egg. The Fire Guardian had picked up the egg from the pedestal and held it close to his chest in his left paw and turned to run towards another sealed tunnel that led out of the Temple.

After letting out a stream of fire and exiting through the tunnel, Ignitus had took flight and soared high in the moonlight and star covered sky. The Fire elder had flown over the gigantic mushroom like trees in the swamp lands not to far from the Temple and Ignitus had slowly descended and landed softly near a moist and muddy river bank near the Silver River. Ignitus glanced down at the purple egg in his paw and whispered softly, "I'm sorry for having to do this little one. But your survival will bring about a new dawn of peace." The fire Elder had gently placed the egg inside the cap of mushroom that would be suitable for a makeshift raft and placed it in the gold colored river. Ignitus said as he watched the egg float down stream, "May the Ancestors watch over you. May they watch over us all..." He only had little time to shed a single tear before shooting back up into the sky and immediately raced back to the Temple. After running back into the tunnel he escaped through, Ignitus's heart stopped as a look of deep shock and despair from what he was witnessing.

As the egg had floated down the Silver River, heading down river far from the Temple the night sky soon had slowly faded and turned into sun light, as the egg had been floating downstream for what must've been hours. The egg's journey had eventually came to an end, as its mushroom cap raft had floated on shore to a river bank, near an isolated part of the swamp. As the egg had beached on the riverbank, a gray blue male dragonfly and a bright pink female dragonfly, whom had gone for a 'walk' had spotted the egg beach on the sandy bank. 'Eventually the egg came to rest near distant swamp, where a family of dragons had gathered around, wondering what magnificent creature could possible live inside.' The female dragonfly asked her husband, "What is this Flash?" The gray blue dragonfly answered, "I'm pretty sure it's an egg honey." Nina asked, "But kind of egg?" Flash started, "I don't..." That was before they heard and saw the egg moving and shell started cracking open. 'They didn't have to wonder for long.'
