Chapter 1: New Adventure

"Ah. You know, it's great to have a wonderful vacation, Spyro."

Hunter sat on his back, resting his arms on his back with his legs crossed looking up at the night stars on the snowy, yet cold surroundings of Winter Tundra. He was happy to have a vacation once in a while with no bad guys to thwart their lands. Mostly, he was glad to be able to spent time with Bianca. When he was ready of course.

He laided on the less snowy ground as his purple dragon companion, Spyro yawned in exhaustion. 18-year-old Spyro The Dragon laid his claws within both his hands and feets onto the ground, supporting his resting body. His scales were a little bigger, while the others down his back and tail were at a medium size and his horns were a little sharper, which is the same as his claws. And his red wings were inches longer than before like other grown dragons. It's been a few years since they last had an adventure and Hunter, for the most part, was happy that he had a vacation. Spyro, however, was happy and at the same time, a tad bit exhausted from what appears to be a near 24 hour workout he had in Dragonfly Dojo from his home world in the Dragon Realms.

One thing was sure is that he had learned to stand on his two hind legs should he grow in adulthood like the other dragons. And he did that days ago, which was a hard enough challenge for him not to break a leg.

Next, they started lengthing his flight meneuvers, attack modes, and fighting accuracy level. They wouldn't call it a Dojo for nothing. And the wise dragons he's freed really trained him good.

Then, throughout the 24 hour period, they, along with the fairies started teaching him to fine arts of Magic and that's when he had difficult times, which is why he's so exhausted and all. Spyro was careful to take precaution after he left. About the magic, that is.

Spyro closed his eyes and widely lifted his brows from his total exhaustion.

"For once." He said between his yawn, agreeably with Hunter. "Listen, when will you and Bianca spend time together?"

"When I'm ready." Hunter replied, smugly

Spyro groans in annoyance. Sometimes, he wonders if Hunter is trying to stand her up or something. But it wasn't Spyro's problem. For he has a certain faun on his mind by the name of Elora. He sighs dreamily as he remembers how much good time they both had after their adventures. Imagine the reaction she'll get when she finds out that Spyro can walk on two feets now and do some magic. Could he try and challenge her? Maybe...Maybe not.

His train of thoughts were soon interrupted as Hunter shouted.

"Spyro! Spyro!"

Spyro shook back to reality and looked his way. Hunter was gazing his direction, wondering what was wrong with him. Spyro noticed his assumed awkward silence.

"What?"

Hunter nods in the direction behind Spyro.

"Look over there." He said

Spyro looked behind him and saw something by the darkness of the wall, glitter with white lights of an entrance. Could it be a transport gate? Spyro and Hunter couldn't tell since some bushes were in the way.

They slowly got up. Spyro got on all four since he can run faster that way. He can run on his two feets also, but like running on four much better. He only runs on two if neccessary.

"You think it's a portal, Hunter?" Spyro asked, not taking his eyes from the glitter and shiny portal.

Hunter walked opposite Spyro and looked at the portal strangely.

"Gee, I don't know. Can't seem to see with all the bushes."

"Think we should check it out?"

Hunter snuck a devious look to Spyro and smiles.

"Not if you beat me to it."

Immediately, Hunter dashes passed Spyro's side towards the portal. Spyro took awkward notice of this with open mouth.

"Hey, Hunter, that wasn't fair!" He shouted as ran on all four after his friend. "You took a head start!"

Hunter was in midway of the portal. Suddenly, a figure's shadow passed him up. While still running, Hunter took notice of it.

"Huh?"

He looked up and saw Spyro flying in the air towards the portal.

'Damn, he's good.' Hunter thought as he kept running

After a long display of running and flying, Spyro lands on his hind legs swiftly with his flapping webbed wings halting his movement and pressed his hands on the ground. He was on all four again.

Hunter caught up with him afterward, catching his breath and panting.

Spyro gazed his direction.

"You alright?"

"What...have the dragon masters in the dojo been feeding you?" Hunter asked, while panting

Spyro shot a toothy grin and said nothing as he gazed towards the mysterious portal. Hunter followed his example as they both slowly approaches. When they removed the bushes, they gasped and saw that it was indeed a portal. A hidden portal of some sort where a dark pitch black color surrounds the opening entrance. They backed away as they looked up and read the umber on the white stoned doorway.

"Terra-Techa." Spyro confirmed before gazing Hunter the confused, yet questionable look.

Hunter noticed, shrugs his shoulders, and shakes his head.

"Don't ask me. I don't know jack about it."

Spyro gazes the portal as Hunter did the same.

"Well, whatever it is, it might be hidden. And when hidden, it must be a hidden portal."

Hunter and Spyro's eyes widen realizing the whole thing and smiles.

"And when there's a hidden portal..." Spyro said, gazing Hunter, who returned the gaze.

"There is..." Hunter said before they both shouted in exciting unison

"NEW ADVENTURE!"

Spyro stands on his two hind legs as he and Hunter threw high fives.

"Yes!" Spyro said, as he lowered on all four again. "What say we go in?"

"Whoa, wait a minute. We don't even know what's in there. Plus, you don't even have Sparx with you."

Spryo sighs deeply and lowers his gaze from Hunter.

"Sparx is on vacation, Hunter. See, he has a..." He trailed off noticing Hunter's long gaze at him. He closed his eyes, shaking off the thought. "N-Nevermind. Are we going or what?"

Hunter nods, looking back at the portal. Spyro following his example.

"Sure. Just be careful."

Spyro scoffs and looks at him.

"Hunter, I'm 18-years-old. Alright? I've battled Gnasty Gnorc, Ripto, and the sorceress..."

"With the help from us." Hunter interrupted, while gazing at him.

"...when I was like 15. This is different." Spyro pointed out

Hunter nods, agreeably.

"Well, I guess you're right."

Spyro smirks.

"Of course. I mean, what's the worst that could happen, right?"

Hunter paused and nods.

"Are we ready?" Spyro asked

"Yeah. Let's go."

Spyro chuckles as both he and Hunter gazed the portal.

"Onward to Terra-Techa we go." Spyro said

With that, the two heroes entered the black void entrance of the portal. After entrance, the portal suddenly disappears into thin air. Uh-Oh!
