Chapter IV
Craddock Strikes!
As the sun sets upon Craddock's lair at Twilight Falls, we return to the Dragon Temple, where Spyro is practicing late, trying to hone his skills with a blade, when Cynder returns from her shift at the café in Downtown Warfang.
Noticing Spyro's stress, considering she knows his routine better than anyone other than himself that is, walks up to him to ask what's going on. "Spyro, what are you doing training so late? This really isn't like you." Cynder asks Spyro. "Cynder, I think something's happened to Flame." Spyro responds.
"Wait, what do you mean?" Cynder says inquisitively. "I mean,…" he sighs "I don't know how to describe it at this point, but he knows I have a code for certain things, and when I told him one of the statements I've used before, trust me he knows them all, he had no idea what it meant. Call it a wild chance, but I think something's wrong." Spyro answers.
"Your logic seems reasonable, but I'm pretty sure it's nothing." She says as a small explosion rocks the temple, emanating from the other side of the building.
"That came from the Council Chamber!" Spyro says with urgency in his voice "We have to figure out what's going on." Cynder says as both of them run towards the scene of the explosion.
Oh dear, you can cut the tension with a knife at this point! Sorry if I kind of gave away what's happening, but whatever, deal with it. Also, sorry for this chapter being short, my pre-determined points made this the perfect location for a cliffhanger, so I'd work with it, that's me though. To see what's happening in the Council Chamber, tune in next chapter. Same Time, Same Channel!
