The Preparation
(This Chapter does NOT contain mature content and is required to be read.)
Also note that if you play 'Here without you' by Three Doors Down in the background while you read this it creates a nice mood. Try it! Tell me if you would like for me to do that for future chapters if you try it and like it. Thanks and Enjoy!

It was late that night when Alnor and Jessica were released from the training room by a malcontent Spyro.
"All right" he had said reluctantly "it's getting late and who knows what tomorrow might bring. There is much for you yet to learn, but what you have now should serve you well enough."
They then had retired to the guest quarters and now stood facing each other each wearing an awkward smile.
"You know I want to make this time last." Jessica said awkwardly to the only one in the room with her. "I don't even know if tomorrow will ever come."
"I know. At least I'll know that I found the one that I was meant for." Alnor said moving forward slowly.
"I know" Jessica said inching ever closer.
The two drew closer and closer until their lips interlocked. Jessica's tongue working it's way around the inside of Alnor's mouth. Then his doing so in her's. Then switching back again and again until they reluctantly broke their ties.
"Take it easy now!" Jessica played.
The couple began to move in once again on one another from close quarters when a knock came to the door.
The couple sighed in unison and glanced up to the ceiling. "What?" Jessica exasperated.
"It is begun" said an unfamiliar voice behind the door. The tone dark. "Spyro has asked that you both come with him to the front lines. You are needed there."
"Ok!" said Alnor raising his head high into the air straitening his neck as foot steps walked away from the door. "You follow me? Through death or glory? Through blood shed or clean sailing? Through... It all?"
"Through it all" she said without hesitation, and with that they left the room and moved into the hall. Here dragons rushed down the hall way in each direction.
The pair reached the end of the hall way and were stopped by Welgor. He was adored with golden armor that covered him from head to toe. "Where do you think you are going?" he said dutifully while he blocked their way with his green tail.
"We were going to the front as ordered." Alnor said. All of his fears set aside by the adrenaline that raced through his veins.
"Not with out armor you aren't! And have you been to the Hall of Love and War?" inquired Welgor.
"...no"
"Go there, you'll find a large white dragon, he'll get you armor"
Alnor quickly turned around and scampered down to the end of the hall, and entered the room where Spyro and Cynder had given him their memories however they were only greeted by a large cave devoid of crystals.
"wh...what?... wha?... What happened?" said Alnor under his breath.
"Was this..." Jessica trailed away.
After a few moments they decided to proceed deeper down in to the cave. When they rounded the corner they found a large white dragon staring intently in their direction. "Yes?"
"We were sent here by Welgor for armor. Said that you could help." Jessica offered.
"Yeah" He said calmly "replenish your supplies and then I'll take you to the guardian's armory"
The two nodded and then quickly took their supply of spirit gems.
"Come then young ones" said the white one as he left the cave.
Alnor and Jessica followed him down a hall way and then turned off into a room. Here there were but two pairs of armor laying scattered across the floor. One set was painted a florescent purple, the other was a dull silver. Alnor quickly slipped the purple set on and then looked over at his mate. Her armor had changed to the same brilliant scarlet as her.
"Nice"
"Thanks"
Alnor nodded and then went to leave.
"Thanks!" Jessica said to the white dragon as they left the room and went down the hall to fulfill their duty.
"No problem!" the white one yelled as the couple scampered out of his view around a corner.
Jessica and Alnor reached the doorway where Welgor had stopped them before to find him gone.
"You think that the fighting has began?" Alnor inquired as they sprinted down the now empty hallway.
"Only one way to find out!" Jessica said as they rounded the final corner. At the end of the hall now was the dark night time sky.
The couple soon breached the door way and emerged from the temple. What lye before them was that of the likes never seen before.
Hey, sorry for the short chapter, but this is the only 'boring' chapter left. From now on there will be fighting and plot twists at every turn. If you've been keeping up with this from the start know that this is what you have been waiting for for all of this time. The climax is still 2-5 Chapters away. But from now on you'll never be bored.
Chapter 11 should be out by late tommorow night or early the next moring (3 A.M. at latest)
Thanks,
Cornys
