Chapter 1
Spyro awoke with a start his body was drenched in sweat. He had another nightmare about his family. He dreamt that he was living peacefully with other purple dragons when a powerful unseen force brought fire and brimstone down upon his family.
They panicked and fled trying to save themselves that was when Spyro woke up. He slowly climbed off his bed and walked over to the mirror and looked at himself.
"Maybe I won't ever find out what happened to my family" Spyro said to himself.
He decided to go downstairs and get himself some breakfast. As he descended the stairs the smell of pancakes filled his nostrils. "Eruptor's making pancakes again" Spyro thought to himself.
He reached the kitchen and saw Eruptor putting pancakes onto plates. When he saw Spyro enter he spoke to him.
"hey buddy sleep well".
"Yeah slept like a log"
replied Spyro although he didn't mean it. He sat down at the table as Eruptor placed a plate with pancakes in front of him.
"Thanks buddy" said Spyro.
He took one bite of the pancakes and let out a satisfied moan.
"Oh man these always taste so good, what is your secret Eruptor" Spyro asked him.
Eruptor replied "Oh buddy it's a secret for a reason".
Spyro laughed and continued to eat his pancakes. A few minutes later Stealth Elf appeared in the kitchen by teleporting startling them both.
"Whoa Stealthy what is wrong with using the stairs" asked Eruptor.
"It's much quicker this way" replied Stealth Elf.
"Plus, I couldn't wait to get some of your delicious pancakes" she added.
They all laughed and tucked into the pancakes. After they all finished Spyro collected the dishes and placed them in the sink and washed them.
"I'm going to head out in a minute" said Spyro.
"Okay said Eruptor from the table.
Spyro finished washing the dishes and slowly walked towards the front door. Stealth Elf watched him leave, she knew something was troubling him deeply. She decided to follow him outside to see what is wrong with Spyro and maybe she could cheer him up.
Spyro stepped outside into the sunlight and let a sigh. He began to walk towards the Academy when Stealth Elf teleported to his side.
"Something troubling you Spyro" she asked.
"yes, there is" Spyro replied.
He walked forward a bit and told Elf about his dream that he had. When he finished explaining Stealth Elf stared at him, she didn't know what to say to cheer up her best friend.
Stealth Elf stopped and thought deeply for a second. She came up with an idea that could help raise Spyro's mood.
"Hey, Spyro, want to go for a fly" she asked.
"yeah okay hold on tight" Spyro said.
He stuck his arm out and pulled Elf in close to his Purple scaly body. He stretched his wings and began to flap.
The two were launched off the ground at quick speeds due to the strength of his wings. As the two flew swiftly and gracefully over the islands that were the Academy.
They could see Eon's study beneath them and Spyro thought of confronting Eon over the events of his family, he decided to wait flying with Stealth Elf was far better. Normally flying wouldn't cheer Spyro up the views from up in the clouds were beautiful but he was used to seeing them but being with someone else, especially his best friend made it feel beautiful again.
"Let's stop down their" Stealth Elf said loudly over the sound of the wind and pointing towards an island.
Spyro looked to see what she was pointing at saw a little island with an old oak log in the middle. He flew down to the island and let Stealth move freely again.
The two moved towards the log and sat down on it.
"Spyro, I don't think there's anything I could say to help you feel better" she said.
"But I know that if you ever find out the truth no matter if it's good or bad, I will always be there for you" she said.
she then placed a hand on Spyro's paw. Spyro froze up when she touched him. He spoke to her in an anxious voice.
"umm…. Err… I' sorry Elfy I got to go have things that need to be addressed".
Spyro hastily left and flew off as quick as he could leaving Stealth Elf sat on the log in confusion.
"What are you doing Spyro, you're a big dumb idiot" he said to himself. "you like her, but you can't tell her how you feel what happens if it goes wrong, that kind of thing could affect the whole team". Spyro thought back to when he first realised he had feelings for Stealth Elf.
It was when they got eaten by the Fire Viper a few weeks ago. The cadets had questioned how Cy got to be a Skylander and Spyro and Elf gave a speech about how Spyro had to become a Skylander and how the team didn't believe in him until he proved to them, and they were happy to accept him as a Skylander.
Stealth said she was happy to call Spyro her best friend. It warmed his heart and made him feel good despite everything going on in his life right now.
He carried on flying knowing full well what he had to do. Suddenly he heard Eon's voice fill the Sky.
"Skylanders unite".
Spyro knew that soon this would be the time to talk to him.
Spyro made his way to Eon's office and saw other Skylanders were there as well Pop Fizz Eruptor and Stealth Elf they were just waiting for Jet-Vac and Sprocket. After a few minutes of waiting they arrived through the door.
"Ah we are all here" Eon said. "I wanted you all here to say thank you to you all for being so kind and open to Sprocket joining your team for this mission" he added. "I know some of you weren't open to it but you guys all worked well, and for that I am proud of you all" he said.
"Thank you, you can go back to your studies I have something important to do grooming my beard" Eon said.
"Spyro could you wait a second please" Eon asked.
As everyone left Spyro flew up onto Eon's desk to talk to him directly.
"Look Eon I know your mad about me abandoning the mission, but I'm mad at you too" he said.
"You know I thought for a long time that you knew more about my family then you let on, and now we find out that you knew about Strykore, and….I don't know why you would lie to us" Spyro said. "But I did learn something I'm not going to be a part of a team whose leader is a liar, so I'm done being a Skylander".
Spyro climbed down from the desk and headed towards the door. Eon stretched out a hand defeated.
"Spyro" he said.
Spyro turned towards him.
"I'll tell you everything right now" he said walking towards the Relics Room. Spyro hastily followed him.
Eon approached a chest and let out a heavy sigh.
"All your dragon kind were great heroes Spyro" he said opening the chest and revealing an old dragon tail bone just like Spyro's.
"They were some of the most powerful beings the realm had ever known, they were tasked with protecting the Core of Light, and I was there protector…. But I failed Spyro" he said. "At the Apex of the Great war; a mysterious dark force rose to power" he added. "Strykore" Spyro spoke out. Eon turned and faced Spyro "he was intent on taking over our world and used formidable dark magic to take control of your ancestor and turn them evil" Eon said pausing slightly. "He was going to use them to destroy the core of light…... I was forced to make a terrible decision" he said. "In order to protect the Core, I had to use all of my power to send them all to another realm"
"wait, wait, wait, wait, another realm" Spyro interrupted. "That means they are out there somewhere right, we can go find them" he added.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple Spyro" Eon replied. "The magic I used was unfamiliar, unwieldy, devastating…... I… I don't know where I sent them or even if they survived" Eon finished. He moved towards Spyro and reached out a hand to comfort him.
"I…I am so sorry Spyro" he said.
Spyro recoiled back away from him before flying towards Eon slowly.
"You're sorry?" "You obliterated my entire Family, my entire race and you're sorry" Spyro said dropping to the floor in despair.
Eon bent down to touch him.
"Spyro I…"
"Too late" Spyro said cutting him off and flying out of the relics room. Eon ran after him
"Spyro please"
"We're done Eon, and I will never forgive you for this" Spyro said flying away with tears in his eyes. Eon slouched down in defeat and guilt and wished for Spyro to come back.
