A/N: One thing, before I start: When a new Dragon is brought up, I will put a small biography of said Dragon and then the story will continue. This will not happen with adult Dragons, which will be spoken about at the moment of their introduction; and characters of another species (for example, the descendant of Hunter shall make an appearance, although when, I have no idea). Now, onto the story. I'll only be putting these introductions for the main character party.

Prologue

A New Legend Equals A New Evil

Long ago, the world of Draconia was put in a vice grip of evil brought forth by the first Purple Dragon to ever exist, Malefor, whose knowledge had been twisted by the corruption in his heart. Due to the combined efforts of the young Purple Dragon named Spyro and the Twilight Dragon Cynder, who had reformed from evil after being saved by Spyro, Malefor was forever destroyed, never again able to attack the world. Far away from the scene of this final battle, the Ancient Dragon known only as the Chronicler passed his job onto the Fire Guardian Dragon Ignitus. Upon being given this power, Ignitus was intent on looking at where Spyro and Cynder had gone, because they had disappeared from the previous Chronicler's watchful eye. This is what he saw:

A beautiful meadow far from Ignitus' location, Spyro and Cynder were now flying, knowing that they were free and would be able to love each other to the fullest of their capabilities. Before landing, Cynder flew close to Spyro and nuzzled him with her forehead, earning her a nuzzle in return.

But, as Ignitus saw the two Dragons begin landing on the grassy plains of the meadow, the vision in his minds' eye suddenly ended, leaving him with the knowledge that, at least, Spyro and Cynder were finally free from the tyranny that had ruled over most of their lives. Then, he began his true role as the new Chronicler.

Years Pass, and Spyro and Cynder had a son, Cyro. Cyro had the coloration of his mother, but the abilities of both his parents. So, the birth of Cyro was the beginning of a not only a new Breed of Dragon, but also that of a new legend.

As the young Ultima Dragon grew up, Ignitus decided to keep a watchful eye on his students' son. Ignitus saw that, as Cyro grew up, he began developing control over the Elements of Dragon Time and even Convexity, the two Elements that were thought to never be learned by any Dragon Breed in unison as it did with Cyro. While consulting the Chronicler's Book of Prophecies, he discovered a new Prophecy that seemed to involve the Ultima Dragon Breed. The Prophecy was written as follows:

One day, the Ultima Dragon will be called upon to save the Dragon Realms from a danger greater than any the World has ever seen. But, the Ultima Dragon will not be alone. They will have friends to help guide them along their journey, and only the feelings in the young Dragons' heart will hinder their progress. If they succumb to the negative feelings that lie withing the hearts of all Dragons, the world may yet be doomed. However, the Ultima Dragon's friends will always be with him to help him overcome these feelings of hate, and turn them into more positive feelings. However, the future is not set in stone, and even with the help of their friends, the new Savior may yet still fail. If that happens, then only one person can save the Ultima Dragon from making the ultimate step in their downfall.

Ignitus' eyes grew wide, and summoned Spyro to his chambers in order to discuss this turn of events.

Ignitus' Chambers...

Spyro entered the Chronicler's chambers to find his old mentor Ignitus as the Chronicler himself. "Ignitus, what did you summon me for?"

Ignitus turned to face the Purple Dragon that had saved the world. "Ah, Spyro. It is so good to see you. But, we have something to discuss, and this also pertains to Cynder, so repeat what I am about to tell you to her for me, please."

Spyro bowed his head, nodding. "Of course, Ignitus."

"Good, good. Now, because you and Cynder have hatched an entirely new Species of Dragon to the Dragon Realms of Draconia, you have also created a new prophecy."

"New prophecy... No, I will not do it! Find someone else to fill my shoes for a while. I am living a happily peaceful life with Cynder and Cyro, and nothing will take me away from that."

"I know you will not, Spyro. For you see, Young Dragon, you are not what this Prophecy pertained to, but to the species of Dragon that you have created," Spyro's face was full of confusion as Ignitus spoke. "Your son is the very first Ultima Dragon, and the prophecy foretold that one day, an Ultima Dragon would be needed to save the world from a danger far greater than anything the World has already endured. I wished to talk with you because I would like the both you and Cynder to make sure Cyro does not give into the darkness that exists within all hearts. If he does, your son may as well be the same as Malefor. I am sorry that I have to tell you this, but taking these measures may rule out the possibility of Cyro becoming another Malefor, and I know you and Cynder would never want that."

"You are right, Ignitus, but how does the fact that this new prophecy says that an Ultima Dragon will be needed to save the world have to do with the fact that Cyro is the first of them? For all you know, the new evil could be some sort of creature that still has never been seen. Do not just make assumptions for the reason that you are the new Chronicler, you know that it may not even come true."

"I am aware of that, but I beg of you to just listen to me about this. I don't want your son to be a potential threat to the world, so I am asking you to help me make sure that it doesn't happen. Please, Spyro, do this for me. I can keep an eye on your son at all times, but that doesn't mean I can decipher what will happen throughout his life."

"I understand, Ignitus. I will heed your warning, but Cynder may have a problem with your ideas about helping this prophecy negate itself. Goodbye, Ignitus." Spyro said, leaving the chambers of the Chronicler.

"Goodbye, Young Dragon." Ignitus said, turning back to the Book of Time that now floated back in front of his eyes.

In the present times, the peace has still been left untouched by any hint of darkness. At least, that's what everyone including Ignitus thought. In all reality, a deadly force was now beginning it's conquest of the world. And, the Savior of the Dragon Realms? They are dealing with some social issues. Let's focus on the rising evil first, shall we?

Deep Withing the Boundaries of the Continent of Preythos...

The dark silhouette of a large Dragon loomed over the council of other Dragon silhouettes. This Dragon spoke with a loud, booming voice. "How is the search for the Ultima Dragon coming?"

"Well, Sire, I think I have located the new Ultima Dragon on the Continent of Thrackle. He seems to have some trouble with social relationships. When would you like me to try to capture him?"

The obvious leader laughed a deep maniacal cackle. "Capture him? No, no, no. I don't want to capture him and then force him to come to our side. I want to capture that who is most precious to him. Once you find out who that is, capture them and then leave the Ultima Dragon a small calling card so he knows where he can find us."

"Yes, Master." Said the other Dragon before their form shimmered out of existence.

"All of you are now dismissed. This meeting of the Dark Dragon council is over!" Said the leader before his shape too shimmered out of existence, followed by the other shapes of the Dark Dragon Council.

Continent of Thrackle, Forscythe Territory, Minutes Later...

"Nick, wake up," Said a voice that sounded distant to the young Ultima Dragon. "Nick, get the hell up! You have school today!"

"Coryx, shut up! I'm still tired."

"Well," Said the gold-glowing dragonfly. "If you hadn't been up all night trying to find a way to sweet talk Kari into liking you, you wouldn't be this tired."

"Oh, just go fly into some water and drown."

"Hey, is that any way to treat your best friend?"

"Who ever said you were my best friend?"

"Well, forget you then. Just get to school."

"Ugh! Fine." Nick said, getting up and stretching his muscles.

Name: Nick

Breed: Ultima Dragon

Dragonfly Name: Coryx

First Element Learned (only pertains to hybrid and Ultima/Purple/Twilight Dragons): Ice

Short Biography: Hero of the story, with minor social problems because he was born as an orphan. Well, not exactly, but he hatched at the Forscythe Temple, and had lived outside of a normal family structure with no one but a few other Orphan Dragons. Looks up to his father figure Arctisis, the Ice Guardian in charge of the Forscythe Temple, for advice on anything he has yet to understand, although this knowledge is lost quicker than it is gained.

Forscythe Temple...

Nick walked into the Forscythe Dragon Temple and was instantly bombarded by a foreign mass colliding with his body. As he looked to see his attacker, he grimaced. "Leo, what the hell was that for? You could have killed me, you know."

Leo Brightblaze, another orphaned Dragon that lived around the Forscythe Temple, smiled back at his grouchy target. "I know, but I like to surprise you."

Name: Leo Brightblaze

Breed: Thunderflame Dragon (Electric/Fire Hybrid)

Dragonfly Name: Yukeno

First element Learned: Electric

Short Biography: Leo has been an orphan for most of his life. His parents died in a sudden rock slide on the north side of the Forscythe Territory, so Arctisis took it upon himself to raise the young Dragon alongside the only Dragon to have been orphaned from before their birth, Nick. Now, the two are nearly inseparable and are always attacking each other dangerously. Leo is the only Dragon that Nick can tell a secret to who will actually keep that secret.

"Well, it's not nice, though. Where is everyone?"

"You're late, and Arctisis told me to wait for you, and then take you to the rest of the class, who're meeting in the Woods for today."

"Well, I'm here now, so let's go." Nick said, beginning his stride to the nearby Forscythe Woods, near the border between the Forscythe and Avalar Territories.

As the pair of young Dragons entered the day's classroom, Nick was almost burned by a sudden burst of Fire coming from the treeline. As Nick landed back on the ground, he saw who had attacked him this time. "What the fuck was that for, Cinna?"

Cinna Purblazor laughed at the orphaned Dragon. "I did it because I don't like you, and neither does anyone else except for your little friend there." he said, pointing his head at Leo.

Name: Cinna Purblazor

Breed: Purple Dragon

Dragonfly Name: None (Dragonflies only apply to orphaned Dragons)

First Element Learned: Fire

Short Biography: Cinna was born to a pair of Pyrogon Dragons, but turned out to be a Purple Dragon in the end. As a result of still having his parents, he thinks that he can make fun of Nick and Leo for having no parents, even though Arctisis tells him repeatedly that picking on others is a bad thing to do.

"Well, you know that I can still beat you in a fight any day."

"Cha! Yeah, right. You know as well as I do that Fire is stronger than Ice."

"That may be, but I am the Ultima Dragon, so my potential is unlimited, unlike yours, which is only limited to the Light side of the Elements, where I can also control the Dark sides of the Elements."

"That has nothing to do with this. You may have an unlimited potential, but I have more control over my Elements than an orphan like you could ever have."

That was the last straw. Nick closed his eyes and, when they opened, he sent a large wave of Ice at Cinna, effectively stopping him in his tracks and rendering him unable to retaliate. Nick was going to shatter the icy covering when a voice sounded out from the trees. "Wait! Please, don't hurt him!"

Nick knew that voice, and he turned around to face the Twilight Dragon, Kari Dawnbreak. "Oh, h-hi, Kari." Nick said, stuttering slightly.

Kari stuck her nose into the air snottily, marching up to Cinna. "He wasn't doing anything to you, you know!" She declared.

Name: Kari Dawnbreak

Breed: Twilight

Dragonfly Name: None

First Element Learned: Dark Fire

Short Biography: Born to a pair of Twilight Dragons, Kari knew that she would only be able to use the darker aspects of the Elements. Of course, due to the strange habits of Twilight Dragons, she was attracted highly to Cinna, the only Purple Dragon she knew, and backs him up in his thinking that orphaned Dragons are nothing more than trash, even though Nick is highly attracted to her like she is to Cinna. But, even though Cinna does not show any affection towards her, she thinks that he'll eventually come around and love her in return.

"He tried to burn me when I entered the forest! Why the hell do you always take his side, huh? Isn't it bad enough that I have to deal with him, but also with..." Nick's voice trailed off before he continued. "... you know what? Forget it! Everyone always makes fun of me and Leo just because we're orphans! Leo's parents died after he hatched, mine left me on the doorstep to the Temple before I even hatched. So what that I don't have parents, and never have had any, I don't care! I'm only trying to fit in, but no one let's me try. I'm surprised I even have friends among Dragons like you and Cinna," Nick began walking off with Leo at his side, but turned back for a moment. "Oh, and good luck thawing him out of Level 4 Ice Dragon Magic.

A/N: The Dragon Magic Elements have Levels, which go from 1 to 10, with the exception of Time and Convexity, which go from 1 to 5 at twice the power as the other Elements.

Nick and Leo finally found Arctisis, the Ice Guardian of the Forscythe Temple. "Ah, there you two are. Where have you both been?" He asked, concerned about the two young Dragons that had arrived late.

"Well, we wouldn't have been late if Cinna hadn't tried to torch me, so I chilled him out before Kari came out and started being mean to me, so I just walked away at that point." Nick explained.

"Don't forget about telling Kari that Cinna was encased in Level 4 Ice Dragon Magic." Leo said, forgetting to hold his tongue.

"You froze one of your fellow students?" The elder Dragon shouted at Nick.

"He started it by trying to torch me as we were coming to class. I only froze him because he was making me really angry. Arctisis," Nick said, his voice now in a slightly complaining voice. "I am really sick and tired of ignoring the way that Cinna treats me and Leo, the only orphan Dragons at the temple, like trash! I just wanted to show him that I'm not just some piece of trash."

"Oh, I know you're not, Nick. But, you're never going to win Kari over by freezing the one she thinks she loves."

"How do you know that she only thinks she loves him, hmm? She's definitely in love with him, and I'm just a piece of trash to her, too. I just wish that she could see what I could really do if I had the right motivation."

"Nick, you do not have to prove yourself to a single female Dragon. She'll realize how she's treating you wrongly soon enough, don't worry. And, as for Cinna, he's just a bully, and as soon as Kari realizes that, she'll stop pining over him. Now, go back to the Temple and rest. I'll go get Pygorith to help thaw Cinna out, and then I will have a long talk with him. If he ever bullies you again, just come to me, alright, nick?"

"Yes, Arctisis." Nick said, making his way back to the Temple.

Somewhere Near the Forests' Entrance...

The Dark Icigon Dragon named Calforsh watched as the young Twilight Dragon that the Ultima Dragon apparently liked tried to thaw out the frozen young Purple Dragon. "I think I may have found the weakness the Master asked me to find," He whispered sneakily. "But, I think I should wait a while longer before trying to capture her, just in case." He said before disappearing from visible sight.

A/N: Prologue, finished. Sorry it was written in all italics, but I did it to emphasize the fact that this was partially back story as much as a beginning. Plus, I have never done a chapter like this before, so I would really like some feedback on what you all think about the story from just the prologue. But, if you would rather wait for more, please add this story to your Story Alerts list, and I will update it as soon as I finish the next chapter, which I am starting after I post this chapter up along with the one before it.

Next Time: Nick and Leo decide to take a walk around some of the Forscythe Territory, and are joined by some more friends. Also, Kari decides to come along, but stays distant until Cinna joins in on the walk. But, when Kari is taken, what will everyone do? Wait and find out the next chapter.
