I am glad that this story is so popular that I am actually thinking about continuing it after this one ends. But that is getting ahead of us so here is the next chapter.

Portal Problems (Unexpected Surprise)

Unknown POV

I was sitting down at a table at a nearby diner in the village. I was holding a drink that was made especially for my body. I didn't order anything to eat.

I was not going to have time to eat it.

It was close to noon when I saw four other people sitting down at the table. After getting their drinks ordered and delivered, I said "Is everything ready?"

The one on the far left said "I got the portal all set up."

The next said "I managed to deliver the notes."

The third said "Everything is all set up ready to go."

I nodded my head in satisfaction. Everything was all set to go for tonight.

I turned to the last person and said "Do they suspect a thing?"

He replied "It was hard to keep them in the dark when 'someone' had to blabber to the entire village." He said the last part to the person on the left.

He replied "Hay, it's not my fault that my wife has to act like a girl and yammer about any secret she hears."

Before an argument came out, I said "It does not matter now. All that is important is that they get to the portal." I then got up and paid for the drinks and said "This will be a success, I just know it."

Everyone nodded their head and we dismiss, some to complete the last few details needed while others were going home. I made my way back to my home and wife with one thought in my mind.

"Spyro is so going to freak out about this."

Later that day…Spyro's POV

I was racing to the Realms Portal, going as fast as my legs would carry me.

I had gotten a message…well more like a cry for help from the penguins of Frostbite Village. The report said that they were under attack by gnorces which I found strange since I managed to drive them back to their home world.

Not that it matter, they still needed help and I was determined to save them and maybe kick a few gnorces butt.

As I made my way to the portal, I notice that another dragon was already there. The dragon was looking at the machine, trying to figure out how it works no doubt. I was about to tell him off until I noticed that the dragon was actually a dragoness.

It was Ember.

As I got closer, I saw that she turned around and was just as surprised to see me here just as I was surprised to see her there. I quickly asked "What are you doing here?"

She looked really worried and she replied "one of the students was playing around this portal and it somehow activate and transport him to a place called Frostbite Village." She stammered a bit as she chocked a fresh set of tears and said "I…I was hoping…to figure out how to use it and rescue him. But, I can't seem to activate it."

I looked at her eyes and said "I…I can't let you go."

She looked shocked at my answer and replied "And why not Spyro, you think I'm going to get hurt, I'm going to get cold. I tougher then I look."

"Your student is about to be in the middle of a battlefield."

She looked even more scared but I saw an iron-hard determination etched in her eyes. She replied "All the more reason for me to go."

I groaned when I realized that I could not change her mind and said "Is there anything I can say that will change your mind?"

She replied quickly "No, now help me get this piece of junk working."

I gave a sigh and started setting the code for the activation of this portal and the one at Frostbite Village. I heard Ember say "You learn an important lesson today Spyro."

"I turned to look at her and said "And what that might be?"

"That females always win arguments when it comes to younglings."

I gave a chuckle and made a mental note not to get into an argument with any females when the subject of younglings was involved.

I pushed the activation button and the portal opened up. It was glowing purple and was emitting a vortex that was causing a sucking motion around it. I tuned to look at Ember and said "Ready?"

She nodded her head and we both jump into the portal.

I felt the same feeling I always feel when going through portals. The feeling of being pulled in all direction was overwhelming but I knew it would be over soon.

I saw the end approaching and braced myself for exit. I closed my eyes and prepared for the cold to assault my body.

I landed on the ground but something was different.

For starters, I felt warm.

The second thing was that I had just tasted…sand?

I opened my eyes and found that I was on a beach. The setting sun was almost about to kiss the water on the horizon. It was truly beautiful.

I tried to get up but I felt something keeping me pinned down. I maneuvered my head and found Ember's body on top of mine. I was able to see her eyes and saw that they were closed. I assumed that she must have passed out during the teleportation.

I heard her groan and she said "Man…how do you survive that?"

I gave a small smile and said "Practice Ember…now, can you please get off of me."

I saw her face show realization of our…situation and gave a devilish smile and said "Aww…but I feel so comfortable right where I am at Spyro."

I replied "Well…I don't so can you please get off of me."

"Aww…your no fun." She replied but still got off of me so I was able to stand.

Ember looked around and said "This doesn't look like Frostbite Village."

I replied "The portal must have malfunction or something…what I wonder is why it sent us here?"

"I don't know" she replied before she spotted something and said "Spyro look, over there."

I followed her gaze and notice that there was an open umbrella sticking out near the shore line. I felt my instincts kicking in and said "Wait here, I'm going to check it out."

I then heard Ember said "It's just an umbrella Spyro, it's not like it's going to kill you or anything."

"Can't be too careful Ember." I replied and started to walk over to it.

As I got closer to it, I notice that there was also a picnic basket and a towel big enough for two dragons to lie down comfortably. I went around the site, keeping my eyes and ears open. My nose was sniffing the air but was unable to pick up any scents.

I then said in a loud voice "Alright Ember it's clear."

I saw her walk up and immediately got down on the towel. She gave a relax sigh and said "this is the life, but I am still worried about that kid and the town."

I went over to the basket and saw that there was a note on top of it.

I opened it up and read it.

Dear Spyro and Ember,

We so totally fooled you guys. There was no danger at all; we just needed you to activate the portal. I hope you are not mad at us. A return portal will appear in the morning. In the mean time, enjoy your night at Dragon Shores.

I gave a small laugh and handed the note to Ember. She read the note and gave a sigh of relieve before saying "Why go through all the trouble to get us alone?"

"I have no idea" I took a deep breath and said "But at least we have some time to ourselves."

I saw an evil smile form on Ember's mouth and she said "Yep it's just you…and…me."

I started too sweet as her mouth got closer to mine. I then felt her claw touch my chest and she said "Tag" and ran off to the water.

I was stunned as the gears in my head were trying to figure out what happen and when it did, I finally said "Not for long Ember."

I ran into the water where Ember was already at.

We played tag just like back in the old days. I felt really good just to act like we were friends again. I happen to notice how the water seems to stick on her scales and reflect on her pick scales. It was beautiful.

When the sun was starting to set on the sky, we made our way back to our site. I lied down on the blanket and Ember lied next to me on my left.

I got a bit closer to her so I could wrap my tail around her. I had to admit, it felt right for some reason. I saw her look at me as I looked at her. We both had the same eyes and we both had the same feelings.

The feeling of love

I had never felt it before, and yet it was almost like I had felt it before. I realized that it was always there when I was on a date with Ember. However, at this place at this moment, the feeling was so strong that there was no question about denying it.

I said "Ember…have…have you ever felt like…like you needed to…be with…someone. Like, when they are next to you, you feel happy but when they are gone, it's like…like a needle in your heart."

Ember then replied "Yeah Spyro, I have" in a calm caring voice.

I took a deep breath and said "Do…do you…feel it…now."

I could feel my face blush and I knew that Ember was also blushing as well. However, she still had the courage to say the one word that changed everything.

"Yes."

I felt my heart skyrocket to the heavens. I felt invincible and capable of doing anything. Not wanting to lose the momentum, I replied "I feel the same way Ember…I…I"

"Yes Spyro?" I saw her eyes light up, like she knew the answer but wanted to hear me say it.

"I…I…" I took a deep breath and said "I…love you Ember."

I felt the desire to get closer to her. I scooted closer, placing a wing over her and rubbing next to her. Her scales felt so warm…so good when next to me.

I saw her face light up in surprised before her eyes started to water up. I knew that they were tears of joy and she reply "Oh Spyro…I love you too."

Our mouths got closer…

And closer…

And closer…

The moment our lips connect. I felt a tidal wave of emotions. I was feeling relief, happiness, lust, love, and so much more. The kiss was so sweet…so tender that it was almost addictive as sheep.

Well almost.

I wish the kiss would have last longer but all things must end. When we separated, I was panting as my mind was going through a blender and my heart was leaping with joy.

I heard Ember asked "Was…was that your first kiss?"

"…yeah" I said

She gave a small smile and said "Good" and brought her mouth back for another passionate kiss.

Well, I have some good news and bad news. The good news is that Spyro and Ember are now in love and we all know what comes next after love *coughs* lemon *choughs*. The bad news, this is the last T rated chapter for this story. So those of you who are under the age of 18, the next chapter may not be suited for you. However, the choice of reading it is all up to you and I will not be held responsible if by reading the M rated chapter, you go 'Ewwwwww' Or something.
