Hey everyone, long time no see! Sorry for the wait, this came hard for me with all the distractions around me. This story is a sequel to my previous story 'The Forgotten Past', if you haven't read it already, I would read it first because there a some confusing events. ;) Anyway enjoy the story.
Flare boredly sighed as he stared at the ground blankly of large cave he was in. The deathly silence didn't help the red dragon's mood much as he tapped his tail on the ground impatiently, filling the air with a clicking sound. Only at the age of ten, the crimson red dragon found sitting still a very hard thing to do. After a few more minutes of impatiently waiting, the red dragon suddenly just stood and stared directly at the other dragon beside him, a dark blue one.
"Cavice, I don't even know why we're the bait for this stupid plan!" he grumbled impatiently.
The blue dragon raised an eye brow. "It was your idea you know, I just tagged along," he replied, the beginnings of an amused smirk spreading across his muzzle.
Flare glared at the blue dragon in reply. "Yeah, but I didn't know Cynder was going to take over a week to return." The red dragon quickly turned away and kicked a nearby pebble boredly. "Where is Valie and Saber anyway?"
Cavice only gave a slight shrug. "I don't know, last time I saw them was before we entered this hostage room."
Flare sighed and quickly looked around the room. To the young dragon this was his and his other siblings' home ever since Cynder had managed to capture them a few weeks ago. At first the red dragon found the place to be the most horrifying place on the planet, from the first looks of the old, damaged stone walls it made Flare get the shivers. Much to the red dragon's surprise a few seconds before he woke up, he found Cynder, the large black dragoness was easily twice his height so it made the red dragon afraid of her from the first sight, not to mention all the horrible rumors he was hearing about the black dragoness that stood before him. That was when she explained that her master needed them alive, the reason, Flare still didn't know.
"Hello? Flare?"
The red dragon quickly turned to the blue dragon next to him who called his name. "Yeah?"
Cavice rolled his eyes. "Flare you've got to stop zoning out like that, if I wasn't your brother and if I didn't know you so well, I'd think that you'd be plotting some sort of world domination."
Flare smiled in return, the thought actually made the red dragon chuckle. Good thing Cavice here knows me so well that he knows how to make me laugh, the red dragon thought.
Slightly happy that he somehow amused his younger brother, Cavice turned back to the only entrance and exit to the room. "So how long do you think until Cynder returns so we can set this trap in motion?"
Flare shrugged in reply. "I dunno but I still don't like the plan to kill her," he stated boredly.
Cavice rolled his eyes again. "Of course you don't, you hate to kill anything," the blue dragon exclaimed.
"Unless it attacks first or is ugly," Flare added, quickly changing his gaze to the ground in front of him.
Cavice raised a brow. "You don't think Cynder is ugly, boy do you have some serious issues Flare."
Flare quickly glanced at his brother before looking at the ground again. "You know if Cynder heard you, you'd be soooooo dead by now."
Cavice smiled and gave a slight nod of his head. "Oh yeah, if she survived."
Flare turned back to his brother again, eyes narrowing by the second. "What are you getting at?"
Cavice rolled his eyes again, making Flare far more irritated. "Flare I swear you're dumber then you look, which is also dumb."
A snarl gathered at the back of the red dragon's throat, teeth gnashing as he stared at his elder brother who was surprisingly calm.
Oblivious to his younger brother's growing anger, Cavice continued. "Cynder said before she left that it had something to do with an earth guardian, a purple dragon and the volcano Boyzitbig. The answer is obvious, Cynder met the purple dragon at Boyzitbig, the two faced off and the purple dragon won."
Flare stared at his brother blankly as the anger he once felt slowly fell. "Are you sure that's correct?" the red dragon asked, a slow suspicion creeping into his mind.
Cavice sighed. "Of course I'm sure, can you figure out any other reason why Cynder hasn't returned yet."
Slowly, Flare shook his head. "I guess not," he replied dully. Even though he couldn't find a good reason, the red dragon knew that somewhere, someplace, Cynder was still alive.
Cavice smiled in reply and stood up next to his younger brother. "Great, now let's get Valie and Saber and tell them this. Any ideas where they are?"
Flare shook his head again, making Cavice sigh again.
"Well I guess we're looking everywhere," the blue dragon stated tiredly as he turned towards the exit of the room and walked out with Flare hard on his tail.
The two dragons' search seemed to take hours as they checked each cell for their other siblings. Most of the times they came across other hostage dragons, that were probably simply awaiting their death by Cynder's forces. After the fourth time when they came across another dragon, Flare couldn't take it anymore.
"Uh why don't we just free these dragons and get away with it?" the red dragon quickly turned to Cavice next to him. "I mean seriously, Cynder isn't here so what's stopping us?" he gestured with a paw to the dragon inside the cell to show his point.
Cavice stared blankly at the elder dragon, hardly even blinking before suddenly sighing. "Ok fine, you free all these dragons while I keep on searching for Valie and Saber." With that, the blue dragon quickly whipped around and ran off.
With a dejected sigh, Flare quickly turned to the dragon inside the cell before silently walking closer to the cell and studying it. The dragon was a bright green and had a brown underbelly and wing membranes, instantly proving to Flare that it was an earth dragon. The red dragon continued to look the dragon over, before suddenly noticing its paws were cuffed to the ground, restricting any kind of movement. Flare scowled in slight sympathy as he also figured out that the dragon's mouth was also cuffed.
As Flare approached, the earth dragon didn't even look at him and was just staring into space with not much as word. Feeling slightly dejected, Flare decided a different way to get the other dragon's attention.
"Hey," he called quietly, secretly hoping the dragon was one of the nice, not stubborn types. The earth dragon's eyes turned to him sadly but he didn't even move his head. Flare's eyes widened at the amount sadness that were in those eyes, he could actually feel the sadness that seemed to radiate off the earth dragon.
Suddenly noticing the awkward silence Flare decided to speak again. "Uh hey, I'm here to get you out of here," he stated quite shyly.
Flare instantly saw the dragon's eyes widen, in surprise or shock, Flare would never know. The red dragon silently stepped up to the cell, almost instantly noticing that it had a lock on it with a key hole.
"Typical," he stated quietly, more to himself than the dragon he was freeing. "I bet the guard ape around here would have the key to this stupid lock."
As if on cue, the red dragon instantly picked up the dirty scent of an up in the air, after turning around to the captive dragon and telling him to wait, the red dragon ran to a hiding place so he can ambush the poor ape.
As the scent got closer, the red dragon readied his tail blade for a short swift kill. When the ape got into sight, Flare launched himself at the poor barbaric creature and knocked it over, before jumping to his feet while the ape was dazed and ending its life instantly with a tail blade to its throat.
Slightly happy at his sudden success, the red dragon began to search the disgusting creature for the keys. It only took Flare a second to realize that the beast was holding it in its boney hand. As swift as his kill, the red dragon quickly grabbed it and inserted it into the cell.
"Ah finally," he sighed as the cell opened with ease. Noticing that the earth dragon wanted to say something, the red dragon quickly inserted the key into the cuff over the dragon's muzzle.
As the cuff came off the earth dragon took a very deep breath, making Flare eager to know how long the cuff was over the green dragon's muzzle. But nonetheless the red dragon just shrugged as he continued to insert the key into the other cuffs.
"Thank you, young dragon," the earth dragon thanked after Flare inserted the key into the last cuff over his tail before standing up. His voice sounded like he in his prime. "I never thought I would be able to be free after Cynder captured me and my comrades during one of our scout missions."
Flare smiled in reply. "It alright, I was just passing here with my brother and decided to just start freeing other dragons I crossed." His expression then darkened, "unfortunately my brother didn't feel the same way," he added bluntly.
But the elder dragon just shook his head with a strangely happy smile. "No need to be so harsh on your brother young dragon, I'm sure he had his reasons."
Flare scowled. Yeah, first is laziness and second is selfishness, the red dragon thought as he thrust his head to behind him. "Also um…sir, can you help me with freeing the other hostage dragons in this place, I think it'd be easier being how you're so tall and all."
The earth dragon's smile grew wider. "Firstly young dragon please just call me Saflix, I prefer if the dragon that just saved me, wouldn't be so polite," the elder dragon continued to smile as he noticed a slight blush appear on Flare's face at his words. But the elder dragon's face turned serious a split second later. "But now to the matter at paw, yes I would help you gather more dragons, because if we can get over ten adult dragons we can form a group and battle our way out of here." The earth dragon gave a swift turn and began to walk down the corridor Flare just came down.
Flare stared in slight awe at the earth dragon as he followed him, before suddenly a question came to mind. "Um Saflix? Were you by any chance been named Captain Saflix back where you came from?" to the red dragon it seemed like a reasonable question, the speed he managed to put together the plan was remarkable to say the least.
The earth dragon glanced at the smaller dragon. "Oh no, back in Warfang I was trying my best to get the job but to no avail, another earth dragon got the position."
The two stopped at the next cell, this one held an adult fiery-red, fire dragon in it. The dragon immediately shot up at the sight of the two dragons, but like Saflix, he was heavily cuffed and couldn't move nor talk.
"Don't worry Blaze we'll get you out," Saflix stated before asking Flare for the keys.
The young red dragon nodded without hesitation and handed him the keys. Blaze huh? He thought. Looks like these two know each other.
Immediately after the cuff over Blaze's muzzle came off he did almost the same thing as Saflix and also took in a deep breath.
"Captain, I never thought I'd see you alive!" Blaze blurted out as soon as he got his breathing under control.
Captain? Flare wondered in his head, raising a scaly eye brow at Saflix. He didn't like the idea of being lied at, even if the earth dragon was being modest.
Saflix waved a dismissive paw at both the dragons. "Blaze I thought I told you not to call me Captain, I was only the leader of our scout team."
Blaze sighed in return. "But you should've gotten the rank Saflix, everyone in Warfang knows that."
Saflix turned away before sighing as well. "Yes seems like everyone but the guardians," he began to walk to the next cell.
Blaze followed his leader, with Flare hard on his tail. "Saflix you know that Ignitus saw the true spark in you but was only outvoted by the other guardians."
Ignitus? Who's he? Flare wondered as he trudged silently on the other side of Saflix. I bet he's one of the four guardians.
The young red dragon continued to ponder what the four guardians were doing at this time as Saflix and Blaze continued to free dragons. After what seemed like days for the young red dragon, they had made a group of over fifteen adult dragons, each a warrior or scout. It made Flare slightly surprised when they never came across any kids his age, but nonetheless the red dragon trudged on wordlessly as each dragon in the group got to know each other in side conversations.
Suddenly a few minutes later a young blue dragon ran into the red dragon's view and almost tackled him into the ground as he crashed into the younger dragon with a hug.
"Where were you Flare!" Cavice mumbled as tears of relief ran down his muzzle and onto his startled younger brother. "We searched this whole damn place and we couldn't find you…y-you…idiot."
Flare took slight offence to being called an idiot but quickly forgave his brother when the blue dragon tightened his hug further, almost chocking Flare.
"I found Valie and Saber a few minutes after we parted ways, then we came back to see you weren't there and…and-"
"I'm fine Cavice," Flare interrupted, hugging his brother back. "You had nothing to worry about."
After a few seconds Cavice let go of his younger brother and sniffed a couple of times as an earth dragon and an electric dragoness came into Flare's view.
"Flare!" the yellow dragoness shouted before giving her youngest brother the same treatment Cavice gave him, if not tighter.
"Hi…Valie," Flare only could muttered those two words before he almost got chocked again. It took Valie twice as long to let go of Flare as it did for Cavice.
When Valie let go, Saber, the eldest sibling, stepped towards his youngest brother.
Flare braced himself slightly and closed his eyes; he knew that Saber wasn't really going to be happy about this. Suddenly he felt a leathery wing drape over his back, instantly Flare opened his eyes to see it was in fact Saber's wing. When his eldest brother pulled him in for a hug, it made Flare even more confused, Saber never acted like this.
The red dragon turned his gaze to the earth dragon's eyes, only to see them slightly wet. Then four words left the earth dragon's mouth, four words that Flare would never have thought in his wildest dream his eldest brother would ever say.
"I missed you, Flare."
Flare looked into Saber's eyes, he meant it. The red dragon felt a single tear leave his eyes before hugging his eldest brother back, as hard as he could.
"I missed you too Saber."
*.*.*
The pitter-patter sound of rain stirred Flare in his sleep, the red dragon tossed and turned, somehow hoping the noise would just stop, when it didn't, he decided it was time to open his eyes. But to the red dragon's mild surprise he was in his room back in Warfang.
The red dragon quickly looked over his room to see if anything has changed. To his relief, the stain glass window that overlooked his room was still as perfect as it would ever be, with the pattern of Flare's egg surrounded in flames it truly was the red dragon's most prized possession. Along with Ignitus' old bookcase, a luxurious bed, a large mirror one of the civilians gave him as a gift and a new ruby red chest with his golden armor in it, that made his room.
"Hey, you're awake," a voice stated cheerfully.
Flare rolled his eyes; he didn't even have to look to know who that was, his voice was a dead giveaway. "Sparx, what are you doing here?" the red dragon asked as a yellow dragonfly flew into his view.
Sparx crossed his arms, crossly. "It that the way you greet your brother?"
Flare smiled in return. "I guess not," the red dragon turned to his stain glass window again.
Sparx followed his brother's gaze before rolling his eyes. "Do you have to keep looking at that window every few seconds?"
Flare gave the yellow dragonfly a quick glance but hardly took his eyes off his window. "Even you've got to admit Sparx that it looks awesome."
The yellow dragonfly sighed. "Yeah, yeah whatever, it's pretty, big deal."
Flare scowled at him slightly before turning his gaze back to the window. The two stared at the window in silence for a few seconds, when a question came to the red dragon's mind.
"Sparx, how long have I been out?" he asked tiredly, that sleep didn't seem to help much.
"Four or five days, I lost track," the dragonfly answered quite quickly.
The news was hardly surprising to the red dragon, he wouldn't have thought he would have been out for a day. Especially after all that power swept over him, the red dragon hardly even knew what that was.
With a sigh the red dragon rolled off his bed and landed on all fours heavily, immediately his legs almost gave way under him because of the lack of use of his muscles. After wobbling uncomfortably for a few seconds, the red dragon stood evenly with his legs having no trouble holding him up.
Flare quickly turned when he heard someone chuckling, he quickly found out it was Sparx and glared at the dragonfly.
"Sorry, that was just too funny," the dragonfly apologized quickly, halting his chuckling completely.
Flare rolled his eyes once again before walking over to his mirror and having a glance at himself. A crimson red dragon, with a flame shaped tail blade stared back at him. The red dragon immediately noticed the huge noticeable scar over his right eye, a reminder of his dark form and how he almost died because of it.
Hesitantly, Sparx flew to his larger, yet younger brother. "Anything wrong younger bro?"
Flare replied with a sigh before quickly turning away from the mirror and trudging over to his chest. Hesitantly he flung it open with ease and gazed at all the armor in it. After finding all his pieces of armor in the box he finally turned to Sparx.
"Sparx, where's the others?" he asked, knowing that he didn't need to explain who the others are.
Sparx hesitated for a few seconds. "They're in school still?"
After nodding as thanks, Flare turned away and began to trudge out of his door. So the guardians started school again? He thought before suddenly a yellow dragonfly came into his vision and stopped right in front of him and held up a small hand to stop, surprised Flare stopped soon after.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Flare you're not thinking of actually going back into school are you?" he asked.
Flare stared blankly at the dragonfly for a few seconds, what did he mean? After a few seconds of silence, fighting a mini war in his head, the red dragon decided to straightforwardly ask the dragonfly. "What do you mean Sparx?"
The yellow dragonfly reacted as if he just got slapped. "What! Flare you're going back to school?"
Finally understanding what Sparx was trying to say, the red dragon nodded. "Oh yeah I'm sure I'd be able to get to class with a pretty good excuse, even Volteer's."
Sparx slammed a tiny hand to his face as the two caught sight of the outside rain. "No Flare, you could have a day off of school, don't you want that?"
Flare tapped his chin. "Well yeah, but I also want to see Spyro, Cynder and Cavice quickly."
"But they come by your room every time after school."
Flare's eyes widened. "Really?" when his dragonfly brother nodded the red dragon instantly took off into the rain, not caring how wet he was getting.
After a few minutes, the red dragon found himself in front of The Dragon Temple and also his school. At first it came as a surprise to the young dragon a few weeks ago, but like all things he got used to it after a few days. With a slightly hesitant step, the red dragon entered the large building. After quickly shaking the water droplets off, the red dragon took off running until he came to the three main halls.
Each hall led to a different area, the left one led to the cafeteria where the dragons go during their lunch breaks for lunch, Flare found the area quite enjoyable because he was considered polite there. The middle hall led to the actual classes, where Cyril teaches dragon history and flying lessons and also where Volteer teaches physics. The right hall was where Flare was headed.
The red dragon hastily turned the corner and almost crashed into another student in the process. After apologizing for almost ramming into them, he turned around and took in the scene. Spyro and Cynder both were teaching two blue dragons seemed to be too busy to notice the red dragon. Flare instantly noticed one of the dragons, before suddenly a mini plan came into the red dragon's mind as he grinned mischievously.
Flare crouched close to the ground and slowly made his way to the back of his purple brother and his mate. Still crouching, the red dragon took hatchling steps to the two dragons as they kept explaining to the two dragons what they were doing.
"-want both of you two to simply attack each other with only your ice breaths," Spyro explained, completely oblivious to the red dragon who was creeping behind him, waiting silently until the lesson actually got underway.
Flare watched the two ice dragons boringly shoot jets of frost at each other, each dodging the others with ease and counterattacking. The red dragon really didn't get the point on this drill, except maybe if the two teachers, Spyro and Cynder were trying to see how much the two blue dragons have improved.
Flare didn't even have to watch to see who was going to win it, the smaller more vibrant dark blue dragon showed the skills of a fine warrior, which –though Flare hated to admit it– was slightly better than the red dragon's. As the two continued to face off the red dragon thought this would be a good time to make his move.
Silently Flare crept up to Spyro while he kept his stern gaze on his two students, still hopefully oblivious to his youngest brother creeping up to him.
The purple dragon suddenly felt someone tap him on the shoulder. Through pure reflex the purple dragon whipped around and whacked at the object with his forepaw, instantly feeling it get parried as his eyes grew wide in surprise.
"Sheesh Spyro, you've gotta stop doing that," Flare stated annoyed, though there was a smirk spread across his muzzle.
Spyro backed away a few paces, instantly catching the attention of the two battlers, Cynder and the rest of the class. "F-Flare?" the purple dragon stammered.
"Yeah?" he replied casually, the smirk not leaving. The red dragon could see the bewilderment looks he was getting from Spyro, Cynder and the smaller blue dragon who was battling, other than those three the class looked extremely confused.
Before the red dragon could comprehend it, Spyro had wrapped his wings around him and already pulled his close for a hug. The red dragon was slightly startled by the sudden gesture, but tried his best not to seem embarrassed, everyone in Spyro's class was watching after all.
After the purple dragon pulled away, Flare looked straight into his eyes. "Did you really miss me that much?" he asked quietly.
Spyro faltered a bit. "What, no that's not it, didn't Sparx tell you?"
Flare tilted his head in confusion. "Tell me what?"
Spyro sighed in reply, turning to the ground. After making a personal note to tell his dragonfly brother off for not telling Flare he turned back to his youngest brother who was staring at him with questioning eyes. His eyes suddenly felt glossy.
"Flare, you almost died."
Flare was taken aback with eyes wide with horror and took a few steps back; did he just say what I thought he said? He wondered, turning to Cynder, only to get a nod of confirmation. Flare couldn't believe it; this was the second time he almost died in the matter of a few weeks.
The deathly silence didn't help, almost finalizing that everyone in the room heard what Spyro just said. After a few moments Flare let out a deep sigh and turned his gaze to the ground.
"Well, I guess I shouldn't use that power ever again," the red dragon replied, more to himself than anyone else. The truth was that he didn't even know how he got the power, all he wanted to do is protect his friends and brother and then he just felt his power rise…massively. The feeling was actually quite overwhelming, it made the red dragon think that he was in fact invisible.
Spyro could see the sad look in his brother's eyes when he said that. Quickly the purple dragon began to brainstorm what would make his youngest brother feel better, but was interrupted when the dark blue dragon from the training began to walk up to Flare.
The blue dragon sighed. "Look Flare, if this makes you happy I'd battle you in the lunch break."
Flare's eyes lit up as he turned to face the dragon, eyes full of happiness. "Really Cavice?"
The blue dragon smiled in return. "Of course, only if you don't destroy anything in the battle?" he joked, earning a glare by his young brother, though it was half-hearted.
Flare found himself grinning as he nodded. "I won't make any promises, though."
Cavice rolled his eyes. "Oh bother."
Flare smiled in return before turning to Spyro, who was standing beside him silently. "Would you mind if I stayed and watched Spyro?"
It surprised the red dragon when his brother shook his head. "I'm sorry Flare, but Terrador told that when you awake, to see him straight away."
Flare expected half of what the purple dragon just said but he didn't like it, after their horrible start, the red dragon and the earth guardian seemed to get along alright, but they still have their differences once in a while. With a nod the red dragon walked off silently to the earth guardian's office.
Spyro stared after his brother for a few seconds, before turning back to Cavice and the other ice dragon. "Start again!" he ordered before the two dragons got to their corners for another round.
Flare sighed nervously as he stopped in front of a door that read:
HEADMASTER TERRADOR'S OFFICE
With another nervous sigh the red dragon knocked gently three times on the door with his flame-shaped tail blade.
"Enter," a deep voice stated from inside. Flare pushed the door open to find himself in Terrador's office.
The office was quite small, considering that it was the office of an guardian with a small desk in the centre, a small bookcase and some other things, most are the earth guardians personal belongings. Terrador himself was sitting on a cushion, behind the small desk.
Terrador smiled as the red dragon entered the room. "Ah it's good to see you awake young dragon, we thought it would have taken you another day, but it seems that you recovered very fast." The earth guardian's face then hardened. "But are you aware that you were close to…" he trailed off.
Flare gave a sharp nod. "Spyro told me on my way here, but I don't know if I should believe it." The red dragon switched his gaze to his paws. "The fact that I almost died over just releasing some power is pretty…"
"Surprising?" Terrador suggested when the red dragon just stopped talking.
Flare gave another sharp nod. "Yeah, surprising," he continued.
Terrador kept the red dragon in his sight for a few seconds, eyes narrowed, deep in thought. The staring made Flare seem awkward. What is he thinking about? Flare wondered as the earth guardian's gaze continued to drill into him.
Suddenly the earth guardian smiled again, much to Flare's confusion. "Flare, can you tell me about that power that you just talked about, the one that almost killed you?" he asked.
Flare was at shock for a few seconds, wondering why the earth guardian would ever know such a thing. But the red dragon nodded hesitantly before staring at the ground again and closing his eyes, trying to remember the event.
"Well it was kinda like a spark that appeared when I saw the pain in Spyro's eyes," he began, eyes still closed, as he continued to remember.
Terrador meanwhile made a mental note to ask Spyro why he was in pain.
"I had to concentrate hard to see it though, but soon after I saw it a voice told me to grab it," Flare continued.
"What did the voice sound like?" Terrador interrupted, much to Flare's annoyance. Bur the red dragon had to admit it was a good question.
Flare tightened his eyes as he tried to remember the voice. "The voice was…calm, the owner of the voice seemed to be old because it also sounded weak with age. It seemed male, but it also had a tint of a knowing voice. As if it knew what I was thinking…"
"And what were you thinking?"
Flare's eyes snapped open. "Revenge," he stated bitterly. "I wanted revenge on the giant earth golem who was draining Spyro and Cynder of their energy with dark gems." Flare then closed his eyes again. "It helped, because straight after I grabbed the spark, energy flared inside me and then for a minute or so, I felt invincible, nothing could stop me from tearing that golem to pieces."
The red dragon then turned to the earth guardian, eyes opening. "And that's about it."
All Terrador could do was stare at the younger dragon in shock about what he just heard about. After the shock wore off, the earth guardian shook his head roughly.
"Thank you for the information young dragon, you may have the rest of the day off to recover just please don't disturb the classes," the earth guardian stated.
With a nod and a quick "see ya", Flare quickly ran out of the room, eyes full of mischief. Though the red dragon knew better, he decided to visit Spyro and his class again. When the red dragon got there, Cavice and the other blue dragon had left the squared ring in the centre and two electric dragons were in their place. Quickly Flare made his way to Spyro's side.
The purple dragon gave jump of shock to see his youngest brother next to him again. But quickly his face hardened into a glare. "Didn't I tell you to go to Terrador?"
Flare just shrugged. "I did, he told me I had the day off."
Spyro was caught by surprise and stepped back a few paces. A day off, he thought. When does Terrador gives days off?
"Also Spyro, can I stay here? I'm bored," the red dragon asked, eyes pleading for a yes.
Spyro quickly turned to Cynder, who just shrugged with a smile. The purple dragon quickly turned back to Flare, who was still staring at him. "Ok fine, you can stay," he stated with a sigh, getting a quiet "Yay" from his brother. "But if you distract any of my students I'd tell you to leave," he then added sternly.
Flare seemed to hesitate for a moment before nodding quickly.
Getting the answer that he wanted the purple dragon turned back to his class with a sigh as his youngest brother made his way to one of the spectator's benches which also had cushions on them.
The red dragon chose a spot that was far away from the rest of the class as he laid his head on his paws, boredly staring at the two electric dragon's who were still battling.
After a few minutes of silently watching the two electrics battle, one landed at vital hit and managed to daze the other, before quickly pinning the other onto the ground.
"Good work Spark, you win," Spyro congratulated from the sidelines as the two electric dragons tiredly made their way off the ring. After both his students had settled down, Spyro turned his gaze to his other students. "Now who wants to battle next?"
The room was silent for a few seconds until one of the students shouted out. "Flare against Cavice!"
Both brothers shot up at the mention of their names. Each not really understanding why their names were called out.
Suddenly the whole class began to chant it. "Flare against Cavice, Flare against Cavice, Flare against Cavice."
This repeated until Spyro couldn't take it. He wanted to allow his two brothers to face off because he too wanted to know what would happen, but he couldn't allow his youngest brother to fight, he was supposed to not be interrupting his lessons.
As the chanting grew louder the purple dragon didn't know what to do, should he allow it or not…
You get to decide. :P Yep you heard me right, tell me in a review or PM me your answer. But I will warn you, if you say yes for the battle to be in the next chapter then Flare and Cavice won't battle in thier lunch break. Also because I'm pretty eager to write the next chapter, please send your answer ASAP, I'd be counting it in like two days. :)
Did you enjoy it? I promise you that it'd get better. ;) Also please review, I love it when people do. Also another thanks again to my reviewers for 'The Forgotten Past', you guys are awesome!
