Midnight (Me): Hey guys, it's Midnight. I have some things to tell you all.

Blazer X: Heh, you always have something to say.

Me: Yeah, well I got a lot to say.*Ahem* First: this is my first crossover story. Second: if you've read my front page, you'd see where I said that I have a crossover with no name; this is THAT crossover. I couldn't think of a better name so it'll have to do for now. Third: forgot to mention first and second at the beginning of the story (not chapter) for some unknown reason. Fourth: Not only am I busy with life I've been busy with two other stories...well three. One on Deviant Art and the other one is here on Fan Fiction. The third story (not counting this one) I'm helping my DA friend with. Fifth: I'm also helping test that same person's SMW Rom hack. Finally: I re-edited the tags. So withou–

Blazer X: *snores loudly with mouth wide open* ...ZZZ...ZZZ...

Me: *in a low voice* I don't own Spyro or Pokémon. Spyro belongs to Sierra and Pokémon to Nintendo. You guys read while I run to the medicine cabinet. *grins evilly*


Chapter 3

"...as for our names, I'm Feraligator." the blue alligator said.

"I'm Charizard," the orange dragon smile. "Nice to meet you Spyro."

"And I'm Chatot. I apologise for our *AHEM* little mishap we had. I knew you were a good dragon all along. I was simply testing you to see if you were." the bird chuckled.

Spyro, Charizard, and Feraligator had a sweat drop behind their heads. To the purple dragon, not only did Chatot remind him of Volteer in a way but also Sparx; in a rather annoying way. Spyro was itching to roast the turkey (that's what he calls Chatot in his mind) and eat him but he controlled himself.

Chatot finally calmed down. All the laughs were out of him. "Well, as much as I would stay and chat but I have to return back to the guild."

"Okay, please tell everyone we said 'Hi'." Feraligator said

"And please don't tell anyone about Spyro." Charizard quickly added.

"I won't, trust me. No one will know of him." that first part Spyro did not trust the most. "You two take care of him now. Farewell." and with that said, he left.

Spyro heard a sigh of relief escaped the orange and blue creatures. They were glad to be rid of Chatot. In fact, he too was kind of glad for that as well. Now he had to figure out where exactly he was. Also, he wasn't sure if he can trust them. Then again, they were rather friendly towards him despite the fact that Chatot had attacked him. He had to wonder; exactly what were these creatures? They look like any other creature Spyro saw, especially Charizard. But he has never seen a dragon walk on two legs before. Spyro's thoughts were interrupted when he heard Feraligator.

"I see someone was hungry." he pointed at Spyro.

The purple dragon looked at himself and saw he was still a colourful mess. Somehow, he felt a bit embarrassed about it. He was about to apologize when the alligator waved his hand.

"Don't worry about it Spyro. We figured you'd be starving after stumbling across you at Beach Cave yesterday. Your ribs were showing."

"If we hadn't found you, then you would've been dead sometime later today." Charizard finished.

"Thanks guys. I just wish there was some way I can return the favor." Spyro said.

"Well, don't worry about it." Charizard walked over to the opening. "Why don't you fly down to the beach and wash up? Fly back up to Sharpedo Bluff went your done."

"Sharpedo...Bluff?"

"The face of the cliff looks like a shark from afar. Check it out."

Spyro didn't need to be told twice. But there was one minor problem. He didn't have enough strength to fly. Only when he made an attempt to do so did he realise that. He may have recovered his energy but his strength was going to take its time returning.

"Hey, I have an idea. Hold still, Spyro." Feraligator said. Spyro obeyed and stood in front of him. "Water Gun." as Feraligator said that, a stream of water shot from his large jaws and splashed on Spyro's scales. The water felt surprisingly warm to him as it slowly washed away the stains. Of course, there were some more on his belly, so he balanced himself on his haunches and let the water. About thirty seconds later, he saw Feraligator taking a breather. Spyro had told him not to go on, not wanting to make the poor guy tire out from shooting water at him. He then shook himself dry and then stepped out the small puddle – which swirled with various colors – and shook off the rest of the water that was on his paws. After the last droplets of water flew from his scales, he turned to Feraligator who was looking in the basket that was cleaned out by the starving dragon. His face was in complete shock.

"Jeez, Spyro, I knew you were hungry but...you literally cleaned out the basket! Not a single apple or berry; not even the remaining bits of it!" Feraligator lifted the basket to give the purple dragon a look. The gator meant what he said. It was spotless; no stems, no fruit leaves, no food bits, nothing. It's as if they simply vanished without a trace.

Spyro sheepishly chuckled at this. Wandering aimlessly in an unknown place for unknown days can and will make someone very hungry. In fact, he wasn't even sure how long it was since he fought Malefor. He quickly apologized but Feraligator told him it was okay.

"As long as you didn't eat the gummies, then it's okay."

"Gum–mies?" Spyro said, the word almost sounding foreign to him.

"The way you say it, it sounds like you've never had one."

"I never even heard of them from where I came. What are these 'gummies'?"

"Well, have you heard of candy?" Spyro quickly nodded. "Gummies are basically candy, instead they're not rock hard, but soft and chewy. There are different types of gummies depending on what type you are." as Feraligator turned to the other basket, he failed to notice the confused look on Spyro's face. What was he confused about? When Feraligator said "depending on what type you are". What exactly did he mean by that? As Feraligator rummaged through the basket, he continued. "Since you're a dragon type, a Royal Gummy would definitely suit you...Ah! Here we go." Feraligator turned around and extended his arm and held out what looked like a gummy to the purple dragon. It was a small bean shaped gummy with a smooth midnight blue color. Spyro took it in between his claws and sniffed it. It had no scent so he threw the candy in his mouth and slowly chewed it. His eyes suddenly grew wide. The Royal Gummy was...bursting with flavor! Soft, sweet, tangy, slight sour aftertaste; he could not describe it all. Spyro's mouth was burning with flavor.

Feraligator couldn't help but slightly chuckle at Spyro's face. It was clearly obvious that he liked a lot for the dragon smacked his lips with satisfaction.

"For something that small, it packed a lot of flavor." said Spyro.

"You know how the saying goes: Little things come with BIG surprises." Feraligator quoted. He then turned his gaze to the puddle of water from Spyro's bath. "Well, I better see what I can find to clean that up."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Spyro turned to the puddle and shot an electric arc at it. The attack was weak since his energy nearly depleted during the little 'incident' with Chatot but it still worked. Steam rose from the puddle as it slowly evaporated and shrunk. A whole minute later, it was gone.

"Not bad. That's something an electric Pokémon can't do."

When Spyro heard this, he had to ask. "What's a Pokémon?"

Feraligator's mouth was agape. "WHAT? HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW?"

"Well he's either from a different world," the dragon and gator turned to see Charizard walk in carrying a basket. "...or he really hit his head hard. I'm really leaning towards the first choice." Spyro nodded at this. "I thought so."

"Charizard? I didn't see you leave. Where'd you go?" asked the water Pokémon.

"I saw the empty basket so I went to the Kecleon brothers and bought some food." he set the basket down to the side. "So Spyro, I hope you're ready to learn about Pokémon because there's quite a lot."

"And I don't think you'd want to hear Chatot talk. You'd probably be half awake." Feraligator added.

0-0-0-0-0

For a whole hour, Charizard and Feraligator explained to Spyro about Pokémon; their types, skills, strengths and weaknesses, and everything else. They even told him something that was totally new to him and that was Exploration Teams. It was confusing but they ensured that he would understand Pokémon better.

"You'd have to undergo some serious training to become one, though I think it is best that you don't at the moment." Feraligator stated.

"He's got a point there. We're afraid of how other Pokémon will react when they see you. Chatot was a perfect example." Charizard said.

"Well what am I going to do? I can't stay in hiding forever." Spyro made a perfect statement. "Besides, everyone will find out about me sooner or later."

The room was filled with silence save for the waves crashing against the rocks. Both Pokémon knew that Spyro was right. It wasn't the matter of how and where others will know about him but when. Spyro himself had to admit that they too had a point. What would e the reaction of other Pokémon when they see him?

"Then again," he thought out loud. "Everyone might think I'm a Pokémon."

"Possibly."

"Well, let's go."

"You sure? I mean you just got up and all."

"Relax Charizard. I'll be okay."

"That's not what your legs are saying." Feraligator pointed at Spyro's legs. They were shaking and looked like they were about to buckle. Even Charizard noticed it when he asked a few second ago.

"I think you should rest here for few days or so. At least until you are strong enough to move about freely." suggested Charizard.

"But–"

"Come on Spyro. There's no need to rush or anything. Relax a bit. You look like you're expecting a great threat to the world." Feraligator said.

This was very true as Spyro grew up fighting to save the dragon world. He never had time to explore the world and he had little rest; not counting the three years he, Cynder, and Sparx were frozen at the Well of Souls. He thought of all this and decided that it was definitely a good idea to rest. After saving the world three times, he really deserved good rest.

"Well, I guess some rest would do me well." Spyro slowly said.

"Don't feel bad about it."

"I'm not. It's just that I can't remember the last time I had a good rest."

"Well, you can stay here as long as you like. Don't worry about being a problem to us."

Spyro disagreed with the last part but he thanked them anyway. As the Poké duo left to do whatever they do, Spyro stayed in the room and began to doze off.


Midnight (Me): Okay, I know there was a big time break where Feraligator and Charizard explained about Pokémon and all. There was a lot to say about them so please don't kill me for not explaining them. Besides, there's probably not a single who has not heard of Pokémon.

Spyro: Is this another way of saying that you're too lazy to write it?

Me: No. I'm simply saying why explain it when people already know?

Spyro: I don't. By the way, where's Blazer? *hears toilet flushing upstairs*

Blazer X: Midnight, I'm gonna kill you once this stuff wears off!

Spyro: *turns to me as he tries not to laugh* You didn't.

Me: I couldn't help myself. His mouth was open when he was sleeping face up.

Blazer X: Hey Midnight, got anymore air fresheners? I used a few cans!

Me: How much is a few can?

Blazer X: Ten cans!

Me & Spyro: WTF? 0_o

Me: You readers Read and Review. *puts on a gas mask* See you guys later. Spyro, turn on all the fans and open all the windows just in case.

Spyro: Already on it.
