Reawakening in Sleep.

Eleanor's POV.

I opened my eyes to find myself in a strange world. I was laying on a large rocky platform floating in the night sky. The Celestial Moons were shining behind me, making my white scales glow in a soft tone. Smaller rocks were floating past me like clouds.

Wait. How did I get here? The last thing I remember was Cynder running away. Spyro and I tried to stop her, but she left either way. And then my head started feeling light and I fell limp and backed out.

Come to think of it, where am I and where are Sparx and Spyro?

I picked myself back to my feet and looked around. This place made me feel like I was home. But, it doesn't look like home.

"Hello?" I called out, "Is anyone there?"

"Do not be frightened, young dragon." A kind and elderly voice answered from the darkness, "You are not alone."

"Who are you?" I asked, "What is this place?"

"I have summoned you and the Purple Dragon to your home, so that you might be warned." The voice answered.

Home? I was born here?

"The Celestial Moons are counting down and time is running out." It finished.

As soon as the voice fell silent, whispering voices and strange sounds reached my ears, getting louder by the second. It started to become too much. I closed my eyes, covered my ears and shouted, "MAKE IT STOP!"

Suddenly, I felt something powerful surge through me. The voices and sounds stopped, and I opened my eyes. Everything around me was moving in a much slower pace than they were before. Did I do that?

I used this opportunity to jump across the smaller platforms and reach the larger platform. Once I landed on the large platform, everything returned to its natural pace.

"How did that happen?" I asked in awe.

"The Purple Dragon and the Astal Dragon can wield many abilities that others cannot, including time itself." The voice answered.

My eyes widen in interest. Spyro can do this too?

"Learn to master this ability, and you will be able to see things almost before they happen. But… use this gift sparingly, only when circumstances demand. Manipulation of time is not to be done without the utmost care." It told me.

I nodded in understanding. I knew time is a very sensitive element, as well as space is. I used my new time ability, which will be called 'Dragon Time', to cross the fragments and platforms. I made it across to the main platform.

It looked similar to the Pool of Visions, but it was glowing a light green color. I approached the pool and looked into it.

The voice spoke again, "You and Spyro seemed to have abandoned your calling. It is your destiny to harness the powers of the elements, yet you possess not."

"We haven't been able to use our abilities for over a year, now." I answered in a sad tone.

"Yes." The voice chuckled, "Right now, your powers lie dormant within you. Let's see if we might not awaken them…"

I stepped onto the pool. The glow from the water engulfed me. I closed my eyes and listened.

The voice spoke to me, "Nature is a powerful element. As well as a child branch to the element of Earth. Like you and your father, the Earth Guardian. Let your patience be your guide. Let the energy of the plants flow through you once more. Breathe with the voices of the wind. Now unleash the unforgiving force of your gentle heart."

I felt the energy well up inside me. I snapped my eyes open, levitated into the air and released a powerful wave of natural energy. Once everything calmed down, I landed on my feet and looked myself over.

(A/N: Thank you for the idea XxWolfLord95xX. ^_^)

My body was enveloped in a soft green glow. My azure underbelly was now a leaf green. My vine-like birthmarks were a dark pastel green.

I felt refreshed and amazing!

"Excellent, Eleanor." The voice laughed in enthusiasm, "Your father's blood never ceases to amaze. Now, let us see if you can command them."

I nodded and made my way across to the next large platform. There, I encountered a group of moving warrior statues. They kind of reminded me of the frozen undead warriors of Dante's Freezer. But they have no swords or shields.

I closed my eyes and listened to the whispers of the wind.

"Fight..."

I opened my eyes and took a defensive martial arts stance. The statues charged to attack me, but I countered, dodged and fought back. Every time I attacked, a wave of malachite green energy followed and dealt extra damage. My nature abilites must have evolved and became part of my fighting style.

Really cool.

At the corner of my eye, I could see explosions of fire coming from the other side of the void. I could feel the warmth and raw power of the flames from where I was.

Spyro!

I regained my composure and attacked the last statue. It fell to the ground and crumbled into rubble. Once the platform was cleared, some kind of wrap-pad appeared in front of me. I used it and was teleported to another large platform.

The next group of statues did possess weapons. This is going to be tough. I looked around noticed beind each of the statues were a group of plants.

"Trust the plants..."

I closed my eyes and raised my hands. I could see the statues from the plants' point of view. Before they could move, I opened my eyes and clapped my hands together. A force of wind blew the statues back into the plants. The plants moved and knocked the statues off the platform.

*Whistles* That's quite the skill to evolve.

Another warp-pad appeared and I used it. The last platform I was standing in the center and the statues were bigger, meaner and stronger.

I felt power welling up inside me with every hit. The platform was starting to shake. The wind began to become violent. I closed my eyes and took deep breaths. The power lifted me into the air. I opened my eyes and unleashed the energy.

Energy streams of five shades of green created an protective orb around me and released pulse after pulse of each stream. After the light green stream, the statues crumbled into rubble. I landed on the ground and everything calmed down.

I had no idea how powerful Nature could be. Guess it works out since it's connected to the Earth element.

The sound of a loud and large explosion caught my attention. I looked over and saw a large firestorm where Spyro might have been. The fiery vortex vanished into the sky and everything calmed down.

Suddenly, the platform started moving. I steadied myself and noticed the two platforms were flying toward each other.

Once the platforms connected together, I saw Spyro bracing himself.

"Spyro!" I smiled.

Hearing my voice, Spyro relaxed and saw me. He smiled, "Ellie!"

Without a moments hesitation, he ran toward me and threw his arms around me. I wrapped my arms around him. He felt warmer than usual. Must be because he reawoken his fire abilities.

With our reunion complete, Spyro and I crossed the bridge and entered a building. It looked like a worn out version of the Grotto and the Pool of Visions.

We looked into the pool and the voice spoke again "You two have done well, and now it is time for you to return. But be careful, Spyro and Eleanor; the enemy approaches."

"Wait, don't go!" I called.

"Yeah!" Spyro agreed, "You still haven't told us who you are."

"You shall know me as the Chronicler." The voice answered, "Seek me out…"

Within the pool, I saw an image of a large tree in the middle of a dark swamp-like grove. Then...

Black...

"Hello? Hello, hello, hello, anyone home? Hello, hello?"

I woke up with a quick gasp and the sound of Sparx repeating himself. I looked over to see Spyro starting stir away. I got up to my feet and helped Spyro up to his feet, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I guess so." He assured me. Then he looked at me and Sparx, "Something's happening... I can't explain it…"

"No kidding!" Sparx shrugged with a sarcastic tone, "While you two were catatonic, this whole place has been hooting and howling. Listen."

Spyro tilted our heads and listened to the noises around us. Crickets, owls, loud booms and deep roars. Wait, what?

"What is that?" I whispered.

Suddenly, a massive metal ball fell out of the sky and smashed into the ground with a mighty explosion that sent us flying backwards. The aftershock sent Spyro and I sprawling into the thick grass, while Sparx smacked face first into the statue.

"What's happening?" Spyro cried out, as he scrambled out of the grass.

I looked to the sky and saw a group of familiar flying creatures, "Dreadwings!"

Spyro and Sparx looked at the sky as well. Sure enough, the night sky was filled with hundreds of huge bat-like creatures with Apes on their backs flying towards the Temple.

"The Temple is under attack!" I shouted in alarm.

"The others are still sleeping! we have to get back!" Spyro cried.

"Are you crazy?" Sparx spluttered, "Do you want to run towards the danger?"

I face-palmed at the panicked dragonfly, "Haven't you learned anything last time, Sparx? There's always another way around. Since the way back is blocked, we'll have to try the garden path!"

With that, I set off through the tall grass. Spyro quickly followed after me.

"I liked you all better when you were sleeping," I heard Sparx mutter under his breath, flying off after us.
