New Frontier- a 'Legend Of Spyro' fic

Disc.: I do not own this game series, if I did then Cynder and Spyro would already have kids and Spyro would be a Guardian in place of Ignitus so back off with your burning hatred!

A/N: Well, Dimensions Crossed is finished- I was thinking maybe I'd start the next chapter of Luna's story, if I get enough reviews then maybe I'll make it a crossover fic. Anyway, this one will take place about a month after the end of the previous fic and dip back into the Thundercats universe but not for very long…just long enough for Luna and Noctis to check on things with her other child Tygra. So, here's the first chapter of New Frontier- enjoy!

Ch.1- The Calm Before the Storm

The flight back to Finndor was rather bumpy but somehow the two dragons had made it back safely. Luna stretched her wings as soon as she landed, the people of Finndor were very happy to have their Queen back safe. They were puzzled when another dragon stepped through the portal and stood there looking at them confusedly, but he did his best not to upset them.

"Everyone, this is Noctis. He has come from my home world of Avalar to help me uphold the safety of everyone here, so please treat him as you've treated me."

Tygra was the first to walk up to Noctis and extend his hand in a gesture of a handshake, a sign that he was willing to take his mother's word for it and at least welcome this dragon.

"Welcome to Finndor, Noctis. I am Tygra, Luna's son and it's an honor to meet you."

Noctis, to his credit, smiled gently as he took Tygra's hand in his and shook it gently.

"Thank you for the wonderful greeting as well as your extension of friendship, I am Noctis and I promise that I will do my best to help your mother protect everyone in the city."

With introductions out of the way, Noctis set to helping with repairs where they were needed to prove his trust to the people of the floating city while Luna decided to tell her son of the mission as well as the news of his little brother.

"Mom, I know that none here spoke up about it but I have to ask you- where is Lion-O?"

Luna just smiled at her son, it wouldn't be easy to say but she tried her best to do so.

"Lion-O was saved from death's door by Dante, and your brother has decided to stay with him as his mate. I had a feeling that the two of them were destined to be together, but you could call that a mother's instinct."

Tygra felt his heart drop somewhat at hearing that his baby brother was never coming back, but at the same time he was happy that Lion-O had found a mate.

"Well mom, I'm just glad that he's happy with that man. I trust your judgment, as usual."

Luna smiled at Tygra before she hugged him, yes this was where she belonged…in the floating city with her child, far from the world that did her more harm than good.

(4 years later)

Luna just sighed as she signed more documents, lately it seemed that all she did was paperwork. Tygra had by this point become a counselor and helped make some of the more diplomatic decisions concerning the city's wellbeing, while Noctis had been appointed head of the Flight Guard- he helped the Thunderans build flying machines that they used to protect the city from the sky. As she finished up the last of the papers, the Chronicler chose this moment to make an appearance, his face being displayed in the Visions Glass (it's like the Visions Pool in the game but the energy is channeled through a mirror instead). Luna sighed as she got up from her desk and walked over to the Visions Glass, a smile gracing her features.

'Hello, my Queen. You seem to be doing rather well these days, how are you and Tygra faring?'

"We're faring just fine, thank you for asking. It's been 4 years since we last spoke, hasn't it? For what reason are you calling this time, Chronicler?"

'Nothing truly alarming or catastrophic, I assure you. It's just the Divinity of 12 wish for you to come back to Avalar, they believe that their Queen should be back in her rightful homeland and watching over its safety.'

"Well normally I'd say that things are going just fine without me being there, but there's something that you're not mentioning to me isn't there? Tell me, I deserve to know."

Luna watched as the Chronicler closed his eyes for a moment before opening them again, a sigh escaping his nose and worry was shimmering brightly in his aged eyes as he looked at Luna seriously for the first time since the mission to Thundera.

'Yes, it seems that your years have made you ever wiser My Lady. The Divinity of 12 has also told me that in addition to there being a Queen, there must also be a King to stabilize the rule over Avalar.'

"Wait, are you saying that-"

'Yes, Luna…you must find a mate and get married, even if it's only to dismiss their concerns for Avalar's future. I'm sorry, I know that you would never even consider something like this…I also understand if you don't wish to find a mate-"

"No…it's fine, but that means that I will have to appoint my son to take over since I will no longer be here to rule over Finndor. Tygra's always telling me that he's more than ready to be a leader, well now may be his only chance to do so."

'Luna, are you really alright with having a mate? I mean, you've never really shown any sort of hints that you're ready to settle down…'

Luna just smiled at the Chronicler, he probably had an idea as to who she had in mind for a mate- that dragon could predict how the world would end if he chose to.

"Yes, I am really sure. It seems my old age has made me soft, I never would have considered such a thing hundreds of years ago but now I feel as if it's time to let someone into my heart after so long."

The Chronicler just smiled back, it seemed that Luna had finally let herself be healed to the point where love had found its way into her heart and nested there.

'That's wonderful to hear, so who's the lucky dragon? Although I could probably guess, still I'd like to hear it from you my dear.'

"The dragon that I've chosen…is Noctis, he showed me during the mission to Bellevue City that even I am deserving of love and happiness. Make the announcement to the 12 that we shall be returning to Avalar to be wed, I just need to take care of a few things first."

'Of course, Luna. And I am very happy for you, I know your parents would be too if they were still among us.'

"Thank you, Chronicler. We shall see you soon."

The image then faded as the water from the Vision's Glass fell into the deep basin dish below the mirror frame. Luna turned away and signaled for Noctis to come to her office right away, not having to wait long as he knocked on the door while Luna settled in behind her desk.

"Come in."

"You wanted to see me, Luna?"

"Yes, Noctis. I need you to bring Tygra here, I must speak with the both of you about a rather pressing matter."

"Alright, I'll bring him here right away."

Noctis then left Luna sitting there, a smile on his face as he wondered what she had to talk to them about. He then brought his tail around to look at it when he was sure she wouldn't be able to peek over his shoulder and see what he was hiding from her, the flower opening to reveal a gold ring with emeralds lining the band and an amber topaz gem sitting in the middle. There was engraving on the inside of the ring, it was in the ancient dragonic language.

It said 'Unicum etcormeumaeternumhabeam.'

Noctis was certain that she'd love it, he was going to ask her for her hand when he had a chance. First things first, he had to find Tygra and bring him back to Luna's office as the flower closed up again to hide his treasure from prying eyes. He kept walking until he found Tygra dismissing some guards, after they'd left he walked up to the Thunderan prince.

"Tygra, I see you've taken to bossing the guards around."

"Yeah, I guess I have. Why are you here Noctis, did my mom need something?"

"Yeah, actually. She needs us both for something important, she wouldn't say what specifically but I get the feeling that we'll find out when we get back to her. Also…"

"What, Noctis?"

"I…I was going to ask for your mother's hand, and I'd like your blessings for such a decision."

Tygra had been wondering when the hell he'd get around to asking her, he knew that Noctis was in love with his mother- he saw how the forest dragon would gaze at his mother when she wasn't looking at him, it was obvious that he loved her very much.

"Well Noctis, I had always wondered who would be the one to ask my mom to marry them…I'm glad that it's you, please treat her like the goddess she is to me. I know you'll make her happy, take care of her- you definitely have my blessing as well as my brother's, promise you'll never hurt her?"

"I swear that she will never have a day where she isn't happy. And thank you both, I'm so glad to have you guys' blessings, now let's get to your mother's office before she gets angry at us."

"Yeah, you're right about that!" the two laughed about Luna's getting angry over them being late but let it die down as soon as they were let into the office. Luna was looking at them both, the look on her face both serious yet gentle.

"Alright, now that you are both here we can get down to business. Tygra, I've been pondering on this for the last few months and it certainly wasn't an easy decision on my part to make. There were a lot of doubts in my mind and heart, but now I know that this choice is the best one overall. Tygra, I know that you're definitely old enough to be given more responsibility…therefor, I am stepping down and appointing you as ruler of Finndor. Take care of her, I know that she will prosper under your rule."

Tygra was shocked into silence, did his mother just say what he thought she had?

"Do you…really mean that? Is the city really mine?!"

Luna just laughed lightly, never once would she be surprised by her son's reactions to things he felt he must have misheard.

"Yes, I mean it Tygra- she really is yours, I trust you to look after her and everyone who lives here. I know you'll be an excellent ruler, but if ever you need my help or my input just ask alright?"

Tygra was ecstatic, finally he had the chance he'd been waiting for to show that he was really ready to rule over a city…but something still seemed off about this whole situation, it was almost as if there was something else behind what was really going on behind what his mother was telling them.

"Mother…there's something else that you're not letting us in on, because I know that there has to be another reason as to why you would just give me dominion over Finndor that easily. Tell us, don't we have the right to the whole story?"

Luna sighed as she got up from behind her desk and faced the window, she knew that Tygra would catch on somewhat to what was missing. After another few minutes of silence, she turned to them both and told them the rest of the reason why they were called here…she could feel her heart start breaking as she imagined how her son would take the news, knowing that his mother was going home and never coming back was something truly despairing. But, this needed to be done now or all of them would regret this forever, her eyes already shimmering with unshed tears as she looked at the young man she was proud to call her son and the dragon she loved with all her heart.

"Nothing escapes you, does it honey? You're right, there is more to this decision than what I have just told you. Before I sent Noctis to bring you here, the Chronicler contacted me with a situation of my own that I must tend to immediately."

"Well, what did he say?"

"The Divinity of 12 has expressed concern for Avalar's wellbeing, they feel as though their Queen should return and restore proper balance and order to the ruling parties that govern the land."

"So, you're leaving? Both of you?"

"I am afraid so, they need me to rule the land and make sure that it stays safe from all harm."

Tygra had been prepared to hear the rest of the reason as to why he had been named ruler of the floating city, but he hadn't expected this. His mother was leaving him? The sadness of never having his mother here to watch the city with him ever again was crushing, it seemed as though fate enjoyed taking away everyone he ever cared about or loved…tears were already making their way down his face, this was the second time in his life that he had ever cried.

The first time being when his mother Aurelia had died bringing his brother into the world.

Luna got up and wrapped her son in a tight yet loving embrace, he needed her right now. She gently ran her paw down his back as she held him while reassuring him that they could still see each other.

"Now now, my brave King…you must be strong, not just for yourself but for all the people of Finndor. They will need you to be strong, for you are who they will look to for guidance and prosperity. Besides, you can use the Vision's Glass to speak with me at any time that you desire. I will always make time for you, my dearest child- because you are my proud and noble King with the heart of a tiger. So, dry those tears alright?"

Tygra just kept crying as his mother's words sank in. He knew that she had a point, so after a few more minutes he removed his face from her chest and wiped the water droplets from his eyes. He then looked at his mother and smiled at her, he would be sad it's true…but he also knew that deep in his heart that this was how things were meant to play out.

"Do you…promise that you will contact me from time to time?"

Luna used one of her paws to gently stroke her son's face, something she did to calm and chase away any of his doubts as she smiled at him.

"Yes, I promise."

"Well then, I hope you both make it home safely."

Both dragons nodded and not even a minute later, the Chronicler's image appeared in the Vision's Glass after the water had pooled together inside the frame.

'Luna, Noctis, the portal is ready to bring you back to Avalar. Please, report to the Heaven Star Chamber immediately.'

All three occupants in the room headed out and down the spiral staircase that was nearby.

(Heaven Star Chamber)

Upon reaching the center of the room, Tygra saw that the portal was already active as the image of a beautiful town was displayed on the thin and reflective surface. He guessed that this was Avalar, the town looked much older than all of Third Earth. He then looked at his mother and Noctis, a sad yet happy smile gracing his features as he hugged them both one last time and watched as they both disappeared through the open Gateway, the portal closing after both had gone through it.

Tygra let his heart grow heavy with sorrow, but also felt it fill with pride.

The two dragons he loved so much were happy, and even though he may never see either of them again Tygra knew that they would always be watching him for the rest of his days.

T.B.C.- Well, this one's done and the next one shall be completed soon! Up next, Noctis' proposal and the two dragons' wedding! Stick around to see how it plays out, until then see you around everyone!
