Hello again, my readers. This crossover is just about halfway there, which I'm very happy, since I do wanna see this story finished finally, and it'll be the perfect gift for someone very special. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the ninth chapter.


Ch. 9: Bartok steps up

Spyro, Mole-Yair and the three heroes all glared hatefully at the Hero Orc general Da'growl and his undead zombie army, ready for an epic showdown between the forces of good and the forces of evil. Da'growl cackled evily, and raised his enchanted battle axe into the sky, and slammed it into the ground, creating a massive shockwave of dark energy, forcing Spyro and the four against the walls of the cave, preventing them from moving.

"Ha, ha! I'm afraid you fools won't be leaving here alive!" Da'growl told the five in a dark tone. "Lord Malefor will soon bring destruction upon this world once more, and I shall be commanding his powerful armies as they destroy every soul in their path! The world shall fall under his infinite dark power, the temple and Dragon City will be reduced to ruins, the Golems of the Deep will torch the landscape, the Guardians shall under his dark might, and the Destroyer will remake this world into Lord Malefor's own image! It's over, Spyro!" He bellowed angrily.

"That'll never happen, you fiend. We will put an end to you, once and for all!" Spyro roared, before turning to Mole-Yair. "Mole-Yair, go find a place to hide, we'll get you outta here once this freak is dead."

Mole-Yair nodded, and hid behind some of the rocks, deciding it was for the best that the heroes deal with this freak of the week, while Spyro and the three got into their battle positions, ready for an intense battle good and evil.

"Attack my evil undead minions!" Da'growl roared and flung his battle axe into the air. "Show them your awesome and ultimate evil powers!"

The zombies roared, and charged at Spyro and the three, intent on killing them and eating their living flesh. Spyro charged into the battle, and shot a couple fireballs at the zombies, killing three of them.

"Go, Spyro! Burn those freaky zombies!" Sparx shouted and punched a zombie, causing it to break apart, and fall into a lava pool. "Yeah! That's right! No one messes with Ol' Sparx!"

Cynder rolled her eyes, and slashed a zombie's head in half with her tailblade, and shot the other zombies with her poison breath, weakening them, and giving Spyro the chance to finish them off with his fire breath, resulting in the zombies bursting into flames.

Da'growl roared in fury, and used his enchanted battle axe to summon even more zombies to kill the heroes, and commanded them to attack.

"Here comes the next wave, fellas!" Bartok shouted.

Cynder flew into the air, and shot a barrage of shadow orbs down on the zombies, giving them serious amouts of damage, while Spyro used his earth breath to break some of the support columns around the mine, but unfortunately for the brave purple dragon Da'growl noticed what he was doing, and charged at him with his green gauntlets.

"It's time to paint the cavern red in beautiful dragon blood!" Da'growl yelled and punched Spyro. "Die, die, die! I will rip you apart, reptile scum!"

Spyro groaned in pain, and stood back up, as he glared hatefully at the armored Hero Orc general, and got ready for battle. He shot his electric breath at Da'growl, but he managed to block the electrical energy and absorb it into his magical gauntlets, shocking the purple dragon.

"You've noticed, huh?" Da'growled said and chuckled darkly. "Lord Malefor not only had these gauntlets infused with Rasputin's evil magic, but also gave these weapons a unique gift that absorbs energy, and allows me to use it against my enemies! Now, taste my electric fury, Spyro!" He yelled and unleashed a powerful bolt of lightning towards Spyro.

Spyro's purple eyes widened with terror, as he we struck by the electrical attack, sending him flying into the wall. He groaned, and felt Da'growl strike him with another bolt of lightning, causing him to scream in pain from the attack.

"On no! Hang on, buddy!" Sparx screamed and flew to his best friend's aid. Hey, tree monster! Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?!"

Da'growl smirked evily, and struck Sparx with a bolt of lightning, sending the poor wounded dragonfly flying into the wall, much to Spyro's horror, as he got back up, and charged at the evil Hero Orc, and shot his ice breath at him.

"Ice breath, eh? Da'growl said and absorbed the ice energy into his enchanted gauntlets, and laughed. "I think I should present Lord Malefor with an iced statue of the dragon he hates the most, you!"

Da'growl raised his gauntlets, and unleashed the powerful ice energy onto Spyro, freezing the poor purple dragon solid in ice, causing his friends all to look in horror, as Spyro was suddenly frozen solid.

"No one freezes my mate solid!" Cynder roared in charged at Da'growl, with Sparx and Bartok flying behind her.

Dr'growl cackled evily, and raised his enchanted his battle axe into the air, and unleashed a powerful wave of dark energy, causing the three to scream in pain, and sent them flying.

"It's over, you fools! Your only hero is a frozen reptile sickle, and none on you are strong enough to beat me! Give up, or die!" He yelled.

"We'll never give up, big ugly. You won't win, I tell you what!" Bartok said in a determined tone.

Da'growl roared, and smacked Bartok with his enchanted battle axe, sending him flying into a Sprit Gem with a loud thud. Suddenly, when Bartok hit the rainbow colored gem, the energy suddenly flowed into Bartok's body, giving him the energy of the dragon's life force.

"Hey! What's going on here?!" Sparx shouted in shock. "The little bat is glowing bright.

Bartok felt the rainbow dragon energy enter his body, and felt the power of the elements course through his adorable little body. His cute pink eyes suddenly changed to purple, and he flew up into the air, with some rainbow aura swirling around him. He glared at Da'growl in anger, and gathered up as much energy as he could.

"What sorcery is this?!" Da'growl shouted in surprise.

"He has the power of the dragons inside him, and he will destroy you, fiend." Cynder said as she and Mole-Yair grabbed Spyro's frozen body, and uses her fire breath to free her mate.

Bartok felt purple energy glow brightly, and suddenly form a large purple colored orb of energy, the same energy Spyro has. He didn't know what this power was, but he knew he had to use it to win this battle.

"This is your end, Da'growl, I tell ya what!" Bartok said.

Bartok then shot the purple orb at Da'growl, hitting him right in the chest, causing him to scream in pain, as it tore through his body. He then shot a beam of Convexity energy at the armored Hero Orc, hitting him in the head.

Da'growl roared in pain, as the powerful Convexity energy tore his entire body apart, and caused his arms and legs to suddenly explode. He screamed even more in pain and terror, as his armor broke apart, along with his gauntlets and battle axe exploded. He let out one last painful scream, as he suddenly disintegrated into dust, killing him.

Bartok felt the energy disappear inside his body, and fell down towards the ground, but was caught by Sparx.

"I've got you, buddy. Don't you worry." Sparx said he flew towards Spyro.

The whole cavern started to collapse, preventing them from escaping. Spyro tried to get up, but was too weak to use his powers to get his friends out.

"We're trapped!" Mole-Yair shouted. "What are we going to do?!"

Just then, a portal suddenly opened up, and Ignitus suddenly emerged, and signaled for the five to follow him inside. Mole-Yair and Cynder helped Spyro up, and walk him to the portal, while Sparx carries Bartok in his arms. The five quickly enter the portal, and Ignitus teleports the group to safety, as the mine completely collapses.


Alright, that's all for this chapter. Looks like Bartok defeated Malefor's second general, but they still have to face the two evil villains and save the Dragon Realms from destruction. Do you think they'll win?

Read and review. The tenth chapter will be out shortly, until then see you later.
