Legend of Spyro: Kipling's Claw

By Daggershard

Hello, Daggershard here! Now, I'm sorry for the delay of updating my stories, it's just that I'm having a bit of writer's block right now. Hope you can understand! Now, without further ado, here's chapter two!

DISLAIMER: I do NOT own any Legend of Spyro or JESSIE characters! I DO own Oakon ShadowSlayer!

CHAPTER TWO: A Missing Monitor

When Luke, Ravi, and Jessie got back to the Ross's penthouse, Emma got up off of the couch and walked up to the trio.

"Hey, guys. How was the walk?" Emma asked.

"Good. We did a little shopping, as you can see." Jessie said.

"Oo, what's in the bag?" Emma asked.

"Only the best game in the world, The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon!" Luke said, a big smile spread across his freckled face.

"Oh, great…" Emma said, walking away.

As Emma was heading for the kitchen, the Ross's butler, Bertram, walked in with a bowl of grapes and set it on the coffee table. Luke saw the grapes and ran to the couch, bumping into Bertram as he did so. Bertram glared at Luke, his walrus-like face contorting into a snarl.

"Watch it! You almost made me fall!" Bertram yelled, and Luke just shrugged.

"Luke, don't you want to play our new game in my room?" Ravi asked, holding up the case.

"Oh, in a few minutes, but can you do me a solid and put the disk in your game station?" Luke asked.

"Yup, but when I get back, there better be some grapes left for me!" Ravi chuckled as he ran upstairs.

In his room, Ravi looked at his pet giant Asian water monitor, Mrs. Kipling, and said, "Hello, Mrs. Kipling. How are you?"

The large lizard just purred (I don't really know how to describe that noise Mrs. Kipling makes on JESSIE.) in response. Ravi took that as a "Good."

"Ah, if only you could talk…" Ravi sighed as he squatted to put the game disk into his game station. He smiled at the fact that he and Luke finally got the new Spyro game.

After Ravi left, his TV started to glow a bright white, swirls of purple and black flying across the screen. Mrs. Kipling lifted her head up, looking at the unnatural phenomenon. Using her tail, she opened her cage door and slithered out.

The large lizard's curious nature got the best of her, and she walked up to the television, thinking, What the hell is that?

As she got closer and closer to the screen, two strange tentacles, one purple and one black, shot out of the screen at Mrs. Kipling. The two tentacles wrapped themselves around the reptile's abdomen and lifted her up.

Mrs. Kipling hissed, telling them, "Back off or I'll bite you, you idiotic tentacles!"

Suddenly, the tentacles drew Mrs. Kipling into the screen, and the TV faded to black. Fortunately, Ravi heard the "scream" his pet lizard uttered as she was devoured by the screen.

As Ravi, Luke, Jessie, Emma, and Zuri were watching TV in the screening room, the Ross's home theatre, Ravi told everyone to be quiet. He cupped one of his hands around his ear, and leaned in the direction of his room.

"Ravi, what are you—" Zuri asked, but Ravi cut her off.

"Shush, I'm listening." Ravi said, and began to walk out of the room.

"Listening to what? Are you listening to the wind?" Emma laughed, and Ravi glared at her.

Suddenly, Ravi had a look of pure horror on his face as he yelled, "Mrs. Kipling! She's in trouble!" Then he ran out of the screening room in search of his beloved lizard.

"Ravi, wait!" Jessie yelled, but the young lizard lover did not heed. Jessie and the other kids got up and ran after Ravi. As they did so, they bumped into Bertram, who growled in anger.

"Hey, what's the matter? I just saw Ravi run upstairs like he ate too much candy!" Bertram said, and the quartet just ran past the lowly butler. Reluctantly, Bertram followed.

When the group caught up to Ravi, they saw him on his knees, sobbing.

"What's the matter, Ravi?" Emma asked, putting her hand on her younger brother's shoulder.

"Mrs. Kipling… she's gone." Ravi sobbed.

"Well where could she have gone? The entire penthouse is rigged with security monitors!" Bertram asked no one in particular.

"I think I might know." Said a mysterious voice, causing everyone to jump.

"Whoever you are, show yourself!" Jessie yelled, putting the kids behind her.

"Okay, you've got me, I surrender." The voice chuckled. As it did so, a young man with dirty blond hair stepped out from behind a wall, his hands raised in mock surrender. He had bright green eyes, and a good build. At his side was a sheath, a sword handle sticking out of it.

"Who are you?" Jessie asked, raising her hands in a menacing matter.

"My name is Oakon ShadowSlayer, malady, and you are?" the young man bowed, some of his hair getting into his face.

"I'm Jessie, and these are my kids Luke, Emma, Ravi, and Zuri. Oh, and this is our butler, Bertram." Jessie said, gesturing to the group.

"Um, do you have a girlfriend?" Emma blurted out, and Jessie glared at her.

Oakon chuckled, smiling. "Well no, I do not have a girlfriend, nor do I have any interest I having one at the time."

"Okay, now that we have introductions out of the way, can you please tell us where my lizard is, Mr. Oakon sir?" Ravi asked, walking up to the eighteen-year-old.

"Well, as Bertram said, this entire penthouse is rigged with security cameras, so the only logical explanation is that your lizard was sucked into that new game of yours." Oakon said.

"Logical explanation? If anything, that is the most illogical explanation I've ever heard in my life! You're crazy!" Emma said.

"Ugh… Do you guys want to get the young lad's lizard or not?" Oakon asked, putting his hands on his hips. The group nodded. "Okay, get as many supplies that you need, just no high-tech devices, for that could put us in grave danger, got it?"

Again, everyone nodded, and they spread out to get their supplies. Luke was the only one that was excited about this adventure, because he always wanted to go into a game. When the group returned to Ravi's room, they were wearing anything that could be used as armor.

"Okay, let's go!" Oakon said, smiling, and he chanted a strange incantation and the TV turned white once again and the tentacles of purple and black went flying across the screen.

Armed and ready for battle, the group held each other's hands and jumped into the screen. Oakon, still in the real world, looked around and smiled. That's when he saw Tom Fang in the hall, a black dagger in his hands.

Fuck, he followed me here! Oakon thought, and he jumped in the screen, a look of fear on his face.

Yes, feed me your fear, boy, make me stronger by the second… Tom thought as he walked up to the television, and he stabbed the television screen, shattering it into hundreds of glass shards, trapping the group in the game.

Again, I'm sorry for the delay on updating my stories; I'm a bit stumped on what to write these days. If any of you have any suggestions for me on what to write next in a story, don't be afraid to comment! Chow!
