Spyro fell out of the vortex and landed in the darkest forests. Soon he heard shrieking sounds, which scares him.

The scared dragon gulped and walked down the forest, shivering. Then he sees a hole and approaches it. But when he looked at the hole, red eyes appeared and jumped on him, which turned out to be rats.

Spyro screamed and ran away with the rats after him. He suddenly stopped when he sees all the rats from everywhere in the forest. They surrounded him, and the next thing he knew, they went on him.

Spyro screamed in fright as the rats took him away.


About moments later, poor Spyro was chained to the rock by his front paws. He struggled to break the chains but couldn't. He's in big trouble now! The rats came and surround him. He looked at the rats while hearing his heart beating.

What are they gonna do with me? Spyro thought as he shivered. The next thing he knew, the rats approached and infested him. He screamed. "Someone help me!" he wailed as he struggled.

Within moments later, Spyro's shackles and the rats disappeared.

Spyro was left alone in the darkness. He's not in the forest, but in darkness. "This is bad," he said. Then he saw monsters with fangs and claws coming toward him and screamed. He ran away in fright.

As he ran, the vortex once again appeared and sucked Spyro in. Spyro screamed through the vortex. "Why do I get sucked into vortexes like this?!" he cried.


Spyro fell out of the vortex and landed in a strange place. Then he saw a cart sitting by the door. "Huh?" He jumped on it and relaxed his belly, which made him comfortable. But suddenly, shackles appeared from the corners and bond him by his legs.

Spyro gasped and struggled to break free. The chains, however, didn't break. "What's happening?!" he cried.

The cart moved, taking Spyro down the halls until it arrived at the torture room. This room ain't good news for poor Spyro, who shivered and heard his heart beating. He pulled on his shackles and hoped that he can escape. No luck. He then heard a strange laughter. He looked up and saw a monster with packs of instruments of torture.

"Who are you?" Spyro asked. The monster didn't answer but pushed Spyro to the wall. It pulled out the electric whip, which scared him.

Spyro pulled on his shackles and still couldn't break free.

Then the monster whipped Spyro, shocking him. The poor dragon screamed and pulled on his shackles. As the monster kept torturing him, his shackles suddenly broke, and Spyro dashed out of the room with the monster after him.

Spyro ran to the exit, which actually leads to darkness. "I gotta get out of here," he said. "But how?"

"Well, dragon," the voice said, "it wasn't simple really."

Spyro recognize the voice. It was from the graveyard! "Hey, you sound like the one I've heard back at the graveyard!" he said.

"Correct, dragon," the voice said, "but there's no escape from this nightmare, and I shall reveal myself right now."

Spyro then sees a black dragon with red eyes. "Who are you?" he demanded.

"I? I am Devil, the dragon of nightmares!" the dragon now known as Devil said. "And you, dragon, are my first prisoner!" On the last word, he whacked Spyro on the side of his body.

"No! I don't believe it!" Spyro shouted.

"You don't have to," Devil said, "but here's the deal. Join me, and we'll spread nightmares to all the dragons. If you don't, then you'll be the prisoner of nightmares forever!" With that, he laughed evilly.

Spyro felt shocked for a minute, but now he figured what has happened to him. Devil had sent vortexes to take him to horrifying places and scare him. His body then filled with rage.

Spyro shot up and roared, "NOO! I will not join you, you monster!" With that, he started attacking Devil with his claws. "You've sent vortexes to take me to horrifying places filled with things that scare me! You wanted me to join you because this is my nightmare! I will not be a nightmare's prisoner! And you are..." he slashed Devil in the chest. "...finished!" Devil fell dead.

After Devil disappeared, Spyro felt triumphant when he realized this was over, but the next thing he knew, he felt nothing on his feet and fell, screaming.
