Chapter 4: Warfang and Volteer

"Ha ha ha, they said I could never teach a llama to drive!"

*A FEW SECONDS LATER*

"No llama, noo!"

*baaaa!*

Oh! Hello readers! I had some spare time, and was watching some funny animations by a person who goes by the name of TomSka.

Anyway, I want to know if you guys think that Xavier should turn into a dragon, or gain magic powers, or anything else. I don't want him to be just a normal human, that would be lame :P .

Welp, thanks for the follows, favorites, and reviews. Those things are what keeps me motivated to post chapters earlier!

Also, for anyone who's interested, this fic is kinda based on A Troubled Soul, which in my opinion is the best fic in the whole Spyro archive! And if you disagree… well, screw y- nah, yall are still great :) .

Anyway, I remembered to do a disclaimer this time. Is a disclaimer actually required? Cause I've always thought it was kinda annoying… Anyway, I don't own any characters made by Activision, and if you think I do, you're kinda dumb. Just kidding about the dumb part.

ON WITH THE SHOW!

I pushed open the rather large brown door open, requiring surprisingly less force than I had anticipated.

I walked through the doorway, expecting a large courtroom-like room, with rows of benches and whatnot. However, I was greeted to more of what looked like a really large hotel lobby, with statues of the guardians, Spyro, and Cynder around the edges of the room.

It had around 6 large dragon-sized chairs near the front of the room, facing where I just walked in, each one with a different color, and probably a guardian that went with the color.

There was blue on the far left (Cyril), green on the right of that (Terrador), purple (for Spyro of course), black for Cynder I assumed (I haven't actually seen her yet, she might be black as some people portray her, or the dark purple I personally preferred), orange (for the now absent Ignitus, so sad ;c ), and yellow (Volteer).

Currently, the only people- er… dragons in the room at the moment were Spyro and Volteer, Sparx was nowhere to be seen.

"There you are Xavier!" yelled Volteer. "Simply stupendous, amazing, unfathomable, wonderful to see a new species of creature in our world! Spyro told me all about you, in case you were curious about how I knew of your name."

Typical Volteer. I might have to call him a chatterbox as well…

"Yeah, I would have been here sooner, but Spyro left me behind and I got kinda lost," Spyro looked away at that I noticed, "And I got caught up talking to your underappreciated guards."

"Yes, we've gotten some complaints about those two as well," said Volteer.

"Well, anyway, I'd like to make the proper introductions, but I'm really tired. I've been running around this stupid world for the last three hours, I need a rest." I said.

"Well, we'll have some sleeping quarters set up for you," said Volteer, surprisingly. "Tomorrow I can ask you all the compelling questions about you and your world! And then-"

Spyro just remained silent still.

I took this time to gaze around the room once again, before being interrupted by Spyro.

"Sorry, he's kinda annoying at times," Spyro said.

"He actually seemed better than I would have thought. I mean, I already knew he was talkative, but he wasn't all that annoying."

"Wow, you really do know everything."

"What does he know?" Asked Volteer, who had walked in flanked by two guards not the ones from earlier, of course. No, these two were actually the other two elements, those being earth and electricity, whereas the two guards from earlier were orange and blue.

"That was quick."

"We have a room set up for you! Go get some sleep so we- by that I mean myself and the other guardians, can properly introduce you to this great city.

Yeah, Volteer definitely isn't at all what I had expected. Sure he might have been a little annoying in my personal experience in the legend series, but this was a piece of cake to deal with.

"Well, I guess I'll go to my room then." That sounds like I just got grounded now that I think about it…

*A FEW MINUTES LATER*

"Well, here's your room… whatever your name is… creature?"

Obviously the green guard wasn't informed of anything.

"My name is Xavier, I'm a human thank you very much."

"No need to get snappy, Xavier. He didn't mean any sort of insult." Said Volteer, who apparently had followed.

"Well, sorry I guess. I'm just really tired, and I can get irritable when I'm tired."

"None taken." Responded the guard. The other guard remained motionless.

"Welp. I'm going to sleep." I said to Volteer, who was staring at me with a curious expression.

"Ah, yes. Well, off you go." said Volteer, snapping out of his trance-like stare and walking off.

Finally… sleep. I thought.

I walked into the room, closing the door behind me. Looking around, I found there was a large bed (dragon-sized, no doubt), with a closet, desk, and what appeared to be a weirdly shaped bookshelf?

"This whole building is like a hotel…" I thought aloud, recounting the guardians hall from earlier.

Setting down my pack (which Spyro had forgotten to take the crystals out of, go figure), I flopped down on the bed not even taking off my clothes due to sheer exhaustion.

I closed my eyes, about to embrace the welcome expanses of sleep when…

*knock knock knock*

Figures.

"Come in, it's not like I have the need for sleep, or anything."

Spyro walked in, despite what I had just said.

"I forgot to take my crystals you helped me get, thanks for that by the way." Spyro said, grabbing my backpack and slinging it onto his back. "You mind if I take this?"

Spyro might be a little too serious for my liking, but you gotta respect his manners.

"Um, yeah, just let me get a few things out." After he set down the black backpack, I opened the one pocket that wasn't currently occupied by a crystal.

"Good, it surprisingly isn't damaged." I sighed, pulling out my Apple Iphone.

This thing was pretty awesome, I had had it almost as long as my car (what was left of it anyway), and it didn't even have any cracks, which I was pretty proud of.

"What's that?" said Spyro, looking at the small device I now slid into my pocket.

"A boredom eradicator." I responded, awaiting his response.

"It looks like a piece of metal." Said Spyro, kinda stating the obvious here.

"Well, yeah I guess it is a hunk of metal. But, it also incorporates electricity into it, letting it flow through an advanced piece of metal known as a 'motherboard', allowing it to show images through the piece of glass embedded in its front that you can interact with."

Seeing Spyros confused expression I knew it was time to stop.

"Basically a hunk of metal with electricity stored in it." I summarized, hoping it would be within the dragons capabilities to understand.

"Okay… what is the purpose of this… thing?" Said Spyro, once again slinging the pack over his back.

"Well, to provide entertainment, music, and information. It's all kind of a normal appearance in my world, and normal for our technological advances." Spyro seemed kinda surprised at this, I guess they really didn't have much technology.

"Well… I should be off. Cynder tends to get angry if people leave her waiting, and I was just here to get the pack." Said Spyro, walking off.

"Oh yeah, I hope you end up being trustworthy, you seem like a nice guy." Said Spyro with a smile.

"I'll try my best, I don't know what dragon expectations as far as that goes is."

"You'll find out soon enough, probably." At this, Spyro closed the door, leaving my room silent once more.

Turning on the small white rectangle, I found that It was left at about 30% battery.

Maybe Volteer could charge it up, like with Aarons phone in the fic Broken Perceptions (Check it out, it's really good). I'll have to ask him tomorrow.

Volteer seemed almost out of character for the brief moment I had met him, but I guess this is technically real life...

Oh crap.

This is real life.

Fear began to set in rather quickly, with questions like 'what am I doing here? what is going to happen to me?' And finally, 'how am I going to get home?'

Knowing anxiety wouldn't be good for my sleep schedule, I tried my best to push these thoughts out of my mind, partially succeeding.

I laid back down on the bed, hoping I could just sleep with no interruptions.

I got no interruptions, thankfully.

Until I woke up.

A/N

First off, I made some edits to this not thirteen hours after it was even posted!

Second off, I'm sorry if this chapter was rather short. I prefer to have each chapter rotate around only one topic, but hopefully that will be changed later.

Welp, Xavier is in Warfang, mostly unnoticed and hopefully Volteer won't kill him with boredom. Also, does Volteer seem OOT (Out Of Character)? I can always go back and change things like that.

If anyone's worried I'm not going to develop Xavier's personality at all, I'm just waiting for either a fight scene, slice of life scene, or something similar.

I hope you've all liked this story so far, any constructive criticism is very much appreciated, and will always be taken into account.

Until next time, readers, hasta la vista!
