Chapter 10: The New Mission
"Good morning Spyro. Sorry to wake you, but I need you to do something," Terrador said.
"How dare you! After what happened last night, what makes you think I would ever listen to you three ever again?!" Spyro growled.
Cynder slowly lifted up her head and opened her eyes. Cynder saw Terrador at the door. He was talking to Spyro. Terrador looked to the ground and murmured, "I know you don't care about what I have to say, but hear me out."
"The last time I did something you told me to do, Cynder got hurt! What makes you think I would ever trust you three ever again!" Spyro growled.
Terrador looked up at Spyro and murmured, "Spyro, please, give us one more chance. I know we screwed up, and I know we can't fix what we did, but I need you to give us one more chance. I promise, we won't let you down. I'm sorry we hurt Cynder. I know that doesn't mean anything to you, but I'm saying that, so you know, that we are sorry for what we did, and we will never let it happen again. Please Spyro, give us one more chance to make everything right."
Spyro looked to the ground and thought, I guess I can't hold a grudge, but I need to talk to Cynder about this. If Cynder would give them a second chance, so would I. But if she doesn't, I won't either. Spyro looked at Terrador and said, "Depending on what Cynder has to say, I will forgive you. I know you guys, and the only reason I'm not going to kill you guys, is because, I'm thankful to you three."
Terrador's eyes were wide open, as well as Cynder's. Terrador looked at Spyro, confused, he asked, "What are you talking about?"
Spyro smiled at Terrador and responded, "I'm thankful to you guys for not shunning Cynder for what she didn't do. Back at the Dragon temple, you guys never hated her, and even now, you still don't. I'm glad you guys never hated Cynder. It really means a lot to me, knowing Cynder was happy. Seeing Cynder happy, makes me happy. I can't lose her, and I don't want to."
Spyro wiped away a tear and chuckled, "Sorry. I'm not really good when it comes to a conversation about losing Cynder."
Terrador smiled at Spyro and said softly, "Spyro, it's okay, crying about Cynder is good. Because it shows that you really do care about her. For some reason, it made me smile, knowing Cynder was with you. I was happy, that you were finally happy again. Cynder helped you in a time of need, and it made me smile. She really does care about you."
Spyro smiled at said softly, "I know she does, and I going to make sure, that I never hurt Cynder. I'm never going to leave her."
Terrador smiled at Spyro's words, and remember the real reason he came to talk to Spyro.
"Spyro, I completely forgot. I came in her to ask you about something I needed you to do. I need you to go on a mission to see if you could any survivors from Malefor's past attacks. It's a two day mission, so if you leave today, this day will count," Terrador said, with small smile.
Spyro sank his claws into the ground and growled, "Did you not learn anything about are talk! If you try and rip Cynder apart from me again, I will rip you in half! I'm not going to be pushed around by you three any longer!"
Terrador realized his poor choice of words and thought, I knew Volteer should've done this. He is way better at words then I am. Terrador put a paw on Spyro's shoulder and assured Spyro with a smiled, "Spyro, don't worry. I learned from my mistake. I need you both to go on an adventure to find survivors. Sorry, I'm not very good with words."
Spyro took his claws out of the ground and took a deep breath in, and then out. Spyro smiled at Terrador and apologized, "Sorry. I didn't mean that. I was just scared."
Terrador took his paw off of Spyro's shoulder and said, "It's okay Spyro. I know you were only doing what you thought was best. You wanted to protect Cynder in any way possible, and I respect you for that. I know you will treat her right."
Spyro smiled at Terrador and said, "She has treated me right, I'm just returning the favor."
Cynder smiled at Spyro's words. Terrador smiled at Spyro, and looked at the side of Spyro's face. Terrador's eyes were wide open. Terrador pointed a claw at Spyro's cheek and asked, "Did Cynder do that?"
Spyro touched the side of his face and remember about the cut. Spyro shuck his head and responded, "Of course not. The only thing she caused, was my happiness."
Cynder smiled at Spyro's words and thought, He doesn't even know I'm awake, and yet, he's still so nice to me. Then again, it is Spyro. He is always amazing. I love him for that. Terrador smiled and said, "When ever you two head out, you should probably find some gems to heal that."
Spyro smiled at Terrador and said, "I will."
Terrador smiled at Spyro and said, "When ever you're about to head out, come and get me. I will be in the Guardians chambers. I will give you some time to be with Cynder."
Spyro smiled at Terrador and said, "Will do. And thanks. I really do need to just lie down for a bit with Cynder. I wasn't really able to do that last night."
"I truly am sorry Spyro, but me and the other Guardians are hard at work to make it up to you two," Terrador said.
Terrador walked out of the room, and then looked at were the door use to be. Terrador looked at the huge crack in the wall, as well as the door. Terrador shivered in fear and thought, Good thing I wasn't standing there when this all went down. That would've hurt. Terrador walked away and walked towards the Guardians chambers. Cynder quickly laid her head back down and pretended to be asleep. Spyro walked over to the bed and jumped onto it. Spyro laid down next to Cynder on his belly, and put a wing over Cynder's body. Spyro smiled at Cynder, and then frowned.
"Please wake up soon. I need to make sure you're okay, I need to make sure you're happy... I need to make sure... I apologize for hurting you last night. I'm sorry Cynder... I'm so sorry," Spyro murmured.
When did Spyro hurt me... I forgot, I said that. I told Spyro he hurt me. I'm so sorry Spyro, I didn't mean any of that. I'm sorry I hurt you. Cynder thought. Cynder shed a tear as she thought about her dream she had last night about Spyro. Spyro looked down at Cynder and frowned. Spyro kissed away the tear, and then pulled away and whispered, "Please don't cry anymore. I don't want you to feel pain anymore. I want you to feel happy again. If I have to, I will fight all over again to make you happy."
Cynder pulled her head up and smiled at Spyro. Cynder put her head next to Spyro's and whispered, "It's not me that needs to be happy, it's you. I hurt you yesterday, and I'm so sorry for that."
Spyro nuzzled Cynder. Spyro stopped nuzzled Cynder and asked, "How did you hurt me?"
"I told you, you were the one that caused me pain. I lied. And because of my lie, I hurt you. I'm sorry," Cynder cried.
Spyro smiled at Cynder and whispered, "Cynder, I realized something, you never hurt me, You hurt the dream Spyro. Don't you remember, I said you needed to wake up and join the real me. You never hurt me, you hurt the dream Spyro, because he hurt you. I was hurt, but not by you, or your words, but by the Guardians, because they hurt you. In your dream, I hurt you, but in real life, I'm never going to hurt you. The beauty of the sky's is more important to me than the earth itself. You never left me, so how could you have hurt me?"
Cynder pulled her head back and kissed Spyro on the cheek. Spyro enjoyed the kiss. Cynder pulled away and whispered, "Why am I so important to you?"
Spyro blushed and whispered, "Because, I care about you. And I need to take care of the one's that are important to me."
Cynder put her forehead on Spyro's and whispered, "Are you going to tell me the whole truth in the future."
Spyro smiled and whispered, "Of course. I'm trying to tell you as soon as possible. I just need that right moment."
"What is so bad about this moment?" Cynder asked.
Spyro pulled his head back and smiled at Cynder. Spyro looked at the entrance to the room and pointed a claw at the door. Cynder looked at the door to see Sparks. Cynder raised a brow and said, "Fair enough."
Sparks swallowed hard and quickly apologized, "Cynder, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt your moment. I came down here to see if you two were ready to go. I looked in to see you two were having a moment, and I didn't mean to intrude. I'm sorry Cynder, please don't hurt me."
Cynder smiled at Sparks and said, "Sparks, it's okay, I'm not mad. I'm tired of being mad all the time. Spyro has helped me a lot, and because of that, I'm helping him."
Cynder looked at Spyro, as Spyro looked at Cynder. Spyro raised a brow and joked, "How are you helping me."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "By staying with you."
Spyro nuzzled Cynder and whispered, "Thank you."
Spyro pulled away and smiled at Cynder, Cynder smiled back. Sparks flew towards Spyro, and Cynder, and asked, "Are you two ready to head out? I'm not rushing, I'm just wondering. If you need to have another moment, I will gladly fly out of the room, and let you two have another moment together."
Cynder smiled at Sparks and said, "We will head out soon. I just needed to talk to Spyro real quick. Once we head out, are you coming with us on are adventure?"
Sparks was confused at Cynder's change in heart and asked, "Why are you so happy right now? And why do you want me to come along? You are scaring me right now."
"Sparks, what is there to be mad at? I'm happy, because I finally have everything I've ever wanted," Cynder said, looking over at Spyro, "I have everything. I'm still missing something, but I think that thing can wait."
Cynder looked at Sparks and said, "I want you to come along, so you won't have to be feel alone. I know what it's like to be alone, it's one of the worst feeling I have ever had."
Cynder looked at Spyro and smiled, "But then I met Spyro, and I didn't have to worry about being alone anymore."
Cynder nuzzled Spyro and whispered, "I never had to worry."
Cynder pulled away and smiled at Spyro. Spyro smiled at Cynder, and was surprised by her attitude. Spyro smiled and whispered, "What is it that your missing? If what ever your missing will make you happy, I would be glade to make it happen."
Cynder blushed at Spyro and whispered, "You already make me happy Spyro. This something, would make me so very happy. But it's best to wait, because there is still something I need to tell you, before I can make sure this, something, will happen."
Sparks flew next to Cynder and whispered, "This something, is it family?"
Cynder shuck her head up and down. Sparks flew away from Cynder, and thought, I never thought she was serious about that. Sparks looked at Spyro and thought, This is going to be a sight to see. Cynder looked at Spyro and said, "I guess we should hurry up and do that job the Guardians wanted us to do."
Spyro smiled at Cynder and asked, "Are you ready to go?"
"Let's get this over with. Sleeping on this bed with you was amazing. But, I guess all I really need is you to be happy," Cynder said, with a small smile.
Spyro smiled back at Cynder and jumped off the bed. Spyro stretched out his body and thought, I need to protect Cynder. Seeing her happy, is amazing. It shows, that everything I have done, hasn't been for nothing. Cynder is happy, I did it, and I'm not going to let her down. Spyro stopped stretching and looked up at Cynder and asked with a small smile, "Are you coming with me?"
Cynder smiled at Spyro and jumped off the bed and stretched her body. Cynder walked over to Spyro and put her body against Spyro's. Cynder looked up at Spyro and whispered, "Thank you Spyro. I'm finally happy, and I don't want to lose this feeling."
Spyro smiled at Cynder and wrapped his wing around her body. Spyro wrapped his tail around Cynder's and whispered, "I will try, with all my power, to make sure you stay happy. If you do loss this feeling, I will help you in returning this feeling. I'm here for you."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and kissed him on the cheek. Cynder pulled away, and smiled again. Sparks flew over and landed on Spyro's head and said, "Are you two ready to have another crazy adventure?"
Cynder, as well as Spyro, smiled at each other. Spyro walked out the room with Cynder and looked to his right side, and then to his left. Spyro stopped, and then stood there. Sparks was confused, and asked, "What's wrong Spyro?"
Spyro chucked a little, and then scratched the back of his head and said, "I forgot were I was going."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and said, "Don't worry Spyro. I completely forgot as well."
"Good thing I came along. Go to your left. Down the hall, you should she a huge opening in the wall were a door is suppose to be. If you walk in there, you should see the Guardians waiting for you," Sparks said, pointing down the left side of the hall.
Spyro walked with Cynder down the hall and looked at all the doors. Spyro looked at Cynder and asked, "Were the Guardians expecting the whole world to live in this place?"
Cynder raised a brow at Spyro and smiled.
"The Guardians aren't the smartest once around here. But I guess they did this out of precaution. They don't know how many dragon survived Malefor's attack," Cynder said.
"Do you think we will even find anyone on are journey?" Spyro asked.
"Probably not. But look on the bright side. We don't have to be bossed around by the Guardians while we are out," Cynder responded.
Spyro smiled at Cynder and whispered, "With are powers combined, we could easily over power them. Then we could do what ever we wanted. It's just a suggestion."
Cynder smiled at Spyro's response and whispered, "We can do what ever we want now. We just choice not to. I have had to many fear me, never again. I want ever to respect me, as a dragoness, not as a monster. Next to you, I don't ever have to worry about being hated. I don't have to worry about being alone. I get to finally be happy."
Spyro smiled, and kissed Cynder on the cheek. Spyro pulled away and whispered, "I never gave up on you, and you never gave up on me. You may be happy now, but I will still fight, to make sure I keep you happy."
Cynder smiled at Spyro's words, and shed a small tear. Spyro wiped the tear away with his claw and whispered, "No more tears. No more pain. The only thing you ever need to fell, is happy."
Cynder ducked her head under Spyro's. Cynder closed her eyes and smiled. I have all the courage I need to tell you, I love you. I just need the right moment, I just need you, Spyro, Cynder thought. Spyro turned around to see the Guardians, sitting down, waiting for Spyro. The Guardians looked at Spyro, and then down at Cynder. The smile on her face made the Guardians smile. The Guardians looked up at Spyro to see a smile on his face. Terrador walked up to Spyro and whispered, "Do I need to give you two some time. I'm not joking Spyro, there is no rush. If you need to make Cynder happy after what happened last, you deserve it. I'm sorry we hurt you, I truly am."
Cynder pulled her head up and opened her eyes and smiled at Terrador.
"It's fine Terrador, I just hope you guys are working on are place I asked you guys to do. Those beds were good and all. But, it kind of hard to sleep alone. I can't sleep alone, if I do, I have nightmares. For some reason, Spyro is able to help me in my dreams. But this time, he is wasn't able to help me, and I don't understand why," Cynder said.
Spyro looked at Cynder and said, "I guess that is one more reason we need to go and visit the Chronicler. I'm sure he will clear up most of this."
Cynder looked at Spyro and suggested, "If we don't find anything on are journey, do you want to go and visit the Chronicler? I'm sure he would love to see you."
Spyro shuck his head and said, "Not yet, but we will see him soon. Once we return here, we will clear a few things up here, before we do anything else."
Spyro looked at Terrador and said, "Were are we going to find survivors?"
"You will be going to the South side of Warfang. If you don't now were that is, it's behind Warfang. When ever you two are ready to leave, Sparks will escort you two out the entrance. We all hope you three will have a very safe journey," Terrador responded.
Spyro smiled at Cynder, and thought of something. Spyro looked at Terrador and said, "You still owe me big time for what happened last night, and I know how you could make it up to me."
Terrador swallowed hard and thought, I didn't realize being Guardian would be this scary. Terrador looked at Spyro and asked, "What is it?"
Spyro looked at Cynder and asked, "Is it okay if I speak to Terrador real quick. I'm not going to leave you, I'm promise."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and responded, "Of course. But you owe me a kiss."
Spyro smiled at Cynder and unwrapped his tail from Cynder's. Spyro unwrapped his wing from Cynder's body and walked away from Cynder to talk to Terrador. Cynder frowned, which caught Sparks eye. Sparks landed on Cynder's head and asked, "What's wrong. I thought you were happy."
"I am, but when Spyro leaves me, it just brings back some bad memories. I just don't like being alone anymore. Spyro made me who I am, and I don't ever want to change," Cynder murmured, looking at Spyro.
Sparks smiled and shuck, but said, "Cynder, I'm not very good with this kind of stuff, but, Thank you, for making Spyro happy again. That really means a lot to me. Seeing Spyro so happy, is weird, but also good. I'm sorry for ever doubting you."
Cynder smiled at Sparks words, and joked, "Being wrong has always been your speciality."
Sparks frowned and said, "I'm over here, talking about how I feel, and you're over here making a joke about it. That is cold, but smile worthy."
Spyro looked up at Terrador and asked, "Terrador, after what happened last night, it made me think, I'm still not strong enough. It made me think, if I was stronger, could I have stood up to you and said, no. What I'm trying to say is, I need you three to train me. I need you three to train me as best as you can. I need to protect Cynder with everything I have, and I'm going to make sure that no one can stop me from protecting Cynder."
Terrador's eyes were wide as he realized he had heard those words before. Volteer, as well as Cyril's eyes were shot open on Spyro's words. Volteer shuck his head side to side as he remembered those words. Terrador ignored the thought and smiled at Spyro.
"Don't worry Spyro. I'm building something that can easily train you, even better than we can. Once you return, I will accept your request. But you better hurry, or else your two day journey will become a three day journey," Terrador said, with a smile.
Spyro smiled at Terrador and said, "Thank you for your help. Hopefully we won't take to long."
Terrador smiled at Spyro. Spyro turned around and walked towards Cynder. Terrador remember what Spyro said.
It made me think, I'm still not strong enough. It made me think, if I was stronger, could I have stood up to you and said, no. What I'm trying to say is, I need you three to train me.
Those words. Were have I heard of them before, Terrador shuck the thought out of his head, so it didn't bug him all day. Spyro wrapped his wing around Cynder, and wrapped his tail around Cynder's as well. Spyro smiled at Cynder, Cynder smiled back.
"It took you long enough," Cynder joked, "I was beginning to think you didn't what to be around me anymore."
Spyro shuck his head and kissed Cynder on the cheek and whispered softly, "Let go of those thoughts. But what ever you do, don't let go of me."
Cynder's eyes were wide at Spyro words. Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "I still can't make an amazing statement like that."
Spyro smiled at Cynder and said, "You don't have to, because that is not why I stay with you."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and asked, "Why do you stay with me?"
Spyro smiled at Cynder and responded softly, "Because I still owe you an infinite number of kisses. And because you still have to save me one more time."
Cynder nuzzled Spyro and thought, I can't believe I'm finally able to feel happy. I can't believe I'm finally able to be with Spyro. Everything we fought for, has gotten us here. And I'm never going to let any of it go. Cynder pulled away and whispered, "Never let go."
Spyro smiled and whispered, "I promise, I will never let you go."
Cynder smiled at Spyro, and then faced the Guardians. The Guardians smiled at Cynder, which caused her to blush. Cynder smiled at the Guardians and said, "We will get out of your scales, and go on this journey of yours."
The Guardians smiled at Cynder.
"Have a very save journey," Terrador said.
"I have Spyro with me. I'm pretty sure I have nothing to worry about," Cynder said, looking at Spyro, and then back at the Guardians.
The Guardians smiled at Cynder's words. The Guardians waved, as Spyro and Cynder left the Guardians chambers. Sparks smiled at Spyro and joked, "Do you know were you're going?"
Spyro smiled and responded, "I totally now were I'm... not going, because I have no idea."
Cynder giggled at Spyro, as Sparks chuckled. After walking for a little bit, Sparks flew off of Spyro's head and flew over to a pair of stairs. Sparks pointed down the stairs and said, "First, we go down these stairs. Then we just walk towards the doors down here. Simple as that."
Spyro smiled and said, "You make it sound so simple."
"I stayed up all night, working on this place with the Guardians. I know everything about this place. They even have a secret escape hatch up on one of these floors. I have no idea why, but I guess it's for precaution," Sparks said.
Spyro walked down the stairs with Cynder and looked down the hall to see the big open doors. Sparks landed on Spyro's head and said, "So much for that break we thought we were going to have."
"Spyro did call it. Once we got here, we were probably going to be put to work," Cynder said.
"I just hope that the work we're doing, won't end badly. But I guess if we find someone out there, this trip would've been I success. If we don't, then I guess we should go and visit the Chronicler, before they try and give us more work to do," Spyro said.
Spyro opened the door and squinted his eyes, as well as Sparks, and Cynder. Spyro moved his wing down to cover Cynder's eyes. Spyro looked all around to see moles all over buildings, as well as moles cover the path ways to other houses.
"I guess they are trying to quickly repair, and fix everything, before more dragons get here," Spyro said.
"Then it's a good thing we're leaving, because there is no way I'm helping to rebuild the whole city," Sparks said.
"Sparks, I think they need muscle to build, not bones," Cynder joked.
Spyro looked down at Cynder and joked, "That just cold... and I totally agree with you."
Sparks rolled his eyes and said, "It better not be one of those kinds of trips. Because, if it is, I'm going to stay here."
"I just wanted to make a real quick burn before we left, but I will make more. So it might be one of those kids of trips. You can stay here if you want to. Just know you will have do some back breaking work. Or, you could come with us, and get some face breaking work," Cynder said, with a small smile.
"Both sound like they suck, and both sound like they hurt, but I guess if have to choice, I would rather come with you two. My face has been way more damaged then my back, so I think I could take the pain on the face then the back any day," Sparks responded, shivering from how bad both would feel.
"I think the real question is, do we walk for two days, or fly for two days?" Spyro asked.
"Definitely walk," Sparks said.
"You're only saying that because you want to lay on are heads while we do all the walking," Cynder said.
"Look on the bright side. I stayed up all night, and I really want to get some sleep. If you two walk, I can fall asleep on Spyro's head. And if I do, you don't have to worry about me bugging you. That is a huge bonus for all of us. I sleep, I don't talk, and you two get to do what ever with out me bugging you," Sparks said, smiling at the thought of finally being able to sleep.
Cynder looked up at Spyro and smiled. Spyro smiled back at Cynder and said, "I guess that works. You better make sure, when you wake up, you won't intervene with me, or Cynder. Especially, when ever I talk to Cynder. Just wait it out before you try and talk to one of us.
Sparks smiled and said, "Deal, but you have to give me some good rest. I need to be in the shade, for most of the trip. I know you three are going to have to fight something, sooner or later. So, I guess we should get this day over with. I'm really going to miss that bed that you destroyed."
"Don't worry Sparks, the Guardians are hopefully going along with what Cynder asked the Guardians. Maybe they are building a place for you as well," Spyro said.
Sparks smiled and thought, They better be. They have their own chambers. I should have my own as well. Who knows, it's the Guardians, maybe they will do something I don't know about. Sparks flew down to Spyro's face and said, "Let's just hurry up and do this mission already. Getting back out there, could be way more fun then we think. Now that you are a little bit stronger, This trip should be a fly there, and then a fly back. But we're walking, so, a walk there, and then a walk back."
Spyro smiled at Sparks and looked down at Cynder and asked, "Are you ready to go?"
Cynder smiled up at Spyro and said, "I guess so. It does suck that we can't stay here a little longer, but at least once we come back, we can finally meet the Chronicler. But we are definitely going to chill here for a bit before we do anything."
Spyro smiled at Cynder and said, "Agreed."
Spyro opened his wings and looked at Cynder and apologized, "Sorry I can't hold you while we are flying, but maybe you can jump on my back. I suggest we fly, before we start are little journey. We need to get some distance from the city."
"No thanks Spyro," Cynder said, with a small smile.
Spyro raised a brow and joked, "The last time you said that, you needed my help in the end. I will keep the offer up."
Cynder smiled at Spyro, and kissed his cheek. Cynder pulled away and whispered, "Nice try. But definitely keep that offer open, because I could accept it."
Cynder flew into the air and looked down at Spyro and smiled. Cynder slowly fell back to the ground, and pretended to be in pain. Cynder landed on her paws and looked at Spyro.
"I guess I'm not able to fly, my wings are in a lot of pain. Is that offer still open," Cynder joked.
Spyro smiled at Cynder and walked next to her. Spyro laid down on the ground and whispered, "Of course. I was starting to feel pretty lonely while you were up there. Were you trying to leave me?"
Cynder smiled at Spyro and climbed on his back. Cynder put her head beside Spyro, and whispered, "I can't leave you. I only have a couple kisses down, I still owe you an infinite number of them. And I still have to save your life, which I hope will never happen. I don't want you to ever be in that kind of position ever again."
Spyro smiled at Cynder's words and whispered, "You and me both. Seeing you cry like that, was terrible. I don't ever want to see you like that ever again. You don't deserve to be sad, you deserve to be happy, with me. We can be happy, together, on are journey. I will be here for you."
Cynder smiled at Spyro's words. Sparks landed on Spyro's head and said, "Adventure... I guess. This trip hopefully won't suck."
Sparks held on to Spyro's horn. Cynder wrapped her arms around Spyro's neck and thought, Never having to worry about being alone is a nice feeling. Thank you Spyro. Spyro shot to the Sky and flew away from Warfang. Spyro looked behind him self and asked, "Are you okay back there?"
Cynder looked at Spyro, and responded with a huge smile, "I'm more then okay, I feel amazing! I'm finally able to let go of my fears and be with you! I'm finally able to be with you, it's all I've ever wanted!"
Spyro smiled at Cynder's cheery attitude. Spyro smiled and thought, Cynder's words have given me all the courage I need to ask her. We have been through a lot. Hopefully on are trip, I will be able to ask her. If I'm not able to then, I will tell her when we are back at Warfang. Cynder had a confused look on her face, and asked, "Are you okay Spyro?"
Spyro's eyes widened, as he realized he was still looking at Cynder. Spyro quickly turned his head back around to face the front of himself. Cynder frowned and asked, "Was there something I said. If it offended you, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you."
Spyro couldn't counsel his blush, but he had to comfort Cynder. Spyro turned around and said, "Cynder, you didn't do anything wrong. I was just thinking about things, and forgot that I was looking at you."
Cynder saw Spyro's blush and thought, Why is he blushing over his thoughts? Maybe it's because he's finally able to feel happy for once. I know what it's like, it's an amazing feeling. Cynder smiled at Spyro, but was curious at Spyro's blush and asked, "Spyro, I know it's a weird question to ask, but why were you blushing when you were looking at me."
Spyro's blush got even bigger. Cynder giggled at Spyro's blush. Spyro smiled at Cynder, as she smiled back.
"I was looking at you, and it made me thing, 'Wow, she is so beautiful. How am I ever going to tell her that, with out blushing'. It got me to thinking, why. I know you told me before. But even now, I still don't understand," Spyro admitted, with a huge blush.
Cynder smiled at Spyro's words, and responded, "Spyro, you have given me more then I could ever ask for, and then some. I'm not going to run away from happiness, and I'm not going to run away from the world. My world makes me happy, because my world, is you. And I'm hoping, one day, I can tell you about why, you're my world. One day, I'm hoping, I will never have to fear, ever again. And it will all be because of you."
Spyro shed a tear at Cynder's words, and smiled at her. Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "No more tears. We have shed enough, we need to be happy, not sad... we've never needed to be sad when we are together."
Spyro closed his eyes and smiled. Spyro opened his eyes and asked, "Are you ready to continue are adventures, together?"
Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "Together."
Spyro smiled at Cynder and flew towards the ground. Cynder closed her eyes and thought, Together, It's all I ever wanted to be with Spyro. Together, as a family. I can finally smile again. I love you so much Spyro, and I will tell you. If not today, then tomorrow. But it might be better to wait, after, we get to Warfang. I want to make sure we won't have any distractions. Spyro landed safely on the ground and looked around to make sure they were safe. Spyro smiled at the results, and looked behind himself. The sight made Spyro smile. Cynder had her eyes closed, with a smile on her face. Cynder's face laid down, side ways on Spyro's back. Spyro didn't want to wake Cynder, and continued to walk forward. Spyro turned his head back around and smiled at the thought about the previous conversation he had with Cynder, Together. Everything I have ever fought for, everything I have ever dreamed about, is finally coming true. I'm finally able to be with Cynder. I'm finally able to be with Cynder, I'm finally... happy. Spyro smiled as he walked through the forest and thought, All I have to do, is tell Cynder I love her. Everything is hanging on those three words. The pressure is getting to me, but I need to finally be happy with Cynder. I need to finally be able to not have any fears. If Cynder says she loves me back, I never have to worry about anything anymore. I still need to protect Cynder, I need to protect her... because I love her.
Terrador walked towards the other Guardians and looked at the two of them. Volteer shuck his head side to side and said, "You're still thinking about Spyro's words, aren't you. You remember those words well."
Terrador looked at Volteer and said, "I know I remember those words. But I don't remember who I heard them from. Do any of you remember."
Volteer looked to the ground, not wanting to answer, but looked back up and responded, "Some of those words, were Malefor's as well. He asked for training after we separated the two. He wanted training from us, so he could stand up to us and say, no. Malefor was trying to protect the one he loved, and so is Spyro. The only difference is, Malefor failed... but I guess if we're being honest with each other... we failed him."
Terrador frowned, as well as Cyril. Terrador looked at the two and said, "We will never separate Spyro from Cynder, ever again. Cynder is the only one keeping Spyro sane. If Cynder leaves Spyro, he will break. He will have the same ideas as Malefor. We can't fail, we will not fail him."
"What if we do fail? What do we do then? The smile on Spyro's face made all of us smile. But what happens when Spyro does break, what would we do. I can't... kill Spyro. I don't know about any of you, but, Spyro, really does mean something to me. He's like a brother I never had. He is so cheery, funny, and full of sweetness. I couldn't go through with it," Volteer murmured, thinking of the smile on Spyro's face, as well as the time Spyro saved him.
Cyril frowned, and looked at Volteer. Cyril looked at Terrador and murmured, "For once, I have to agree with Volteer. I could never do it. He saved all of us are lives, and we would repay him, by destroying his. I couldn't do it. Spyro is like a little brother to me as well. I would never hurt someone, that tried to make us happy. It would be like, we stabbed Spyro in the back. I'm sorry, but I'm against it, and my answer will never change."
Terrador looked to the ground and tried to think of an idea. Terrador looked up and murmured, "We are Guardians, not murderers. We will do everything in are power to make sure we won't fail. If we do fail... I don't know what to do then. But, we can't dwell on something that would never happen. We need to smile on the future, not frown upon it, we do that for the past. We will do everything in are power to make sure, the future will finally shine from the dark clouds of the past. It is are jobs to make the future bright again. Let's not dwell on the what if, but look towards what we already know. Spyro can protect Cynder, and Cynder can protect Spyro. Spyro is stronger then Malefor now, and we need to make sure he gets stronger. We need to keep Spyro's future bright. He will keep all of happy, even Cynder."
"How could we possibly train him now? He is even stronger then us," Volteer asked.
Terrador smiled at Volteer and said with a small smile, "I have been working on a room, kind of like the one we had back at the Dragon temple. It's a bit more of a kick in the muscle, but it gets the job done. It should have Spyro in shape for his whole life. Then, we wouldn't ever have to worry about Spyro becoming the next Malefor. I was working on this room in secret. Tell me Volteer, do you think you could beat me in a fight?"
Volteer smiled and responded, "Of course I can... why do you ask?"
Terrador had a small smile and said, "Come with me. I will show you."
Terrador walked towards the door. Cyril looked at Volteer, as Volteer looked at Cyril. Cyril smiled and joked, "As least I'm not going to get slammed into the ground."
"Cyril, you're going next," Terrador said, with a small smile, as he walked out the Chambers and up to Spyro, and Cynder's new dorm.
"I'm sorry, what was that? I think what you were trying to say was, at least I'm not going to get slammed into the ground alone," Volteer joked.
Cyril looked to the ground and mumbled, "This is going to suck."
"That is another thing we can both agree on," Volteer said, shacking in fear at the pain.
Volteer, as well as Cyril, walked out the Guardians chambers and walked towards Spyro, and Cynder's dorm.
Spyro walked around a bush and found a couple of red gem patches. Spyro walked over to the gem patches and grabbed a gem with his paw. I hope this works. I might not be this strong, but it's time to see how far I have gotten on my little bit of training I did, Spyro thought. Spyro squeezed the gem, and instantly broke it. The gems bounced into Spyro's body, as well as Cynder's. Spyro looked behind him self to see a gem bounced into Cynder's body. Why does Cynder need health. I guess it's because we're growing. It's amazing on how powerful I have gotten over the years. Spyro turned his head back around and shed a tear and thought, If only Ignitus could see me now. Spyro broke another one. Spyro looked into the reflection of the gem to see the cut had completed disappeared. Spyro looked at the bottom of his paw to see some left over blood. Spyro shot water at his paw, and cleaned his paw off. Spyro put his paw back down on the ground, and walked around the gem patch. Spyro looked around for a good spot to stay for the night. Spyro stopped, and looked all around for any sign of an hostile presence. Spyro smiled and laid down on the ground. Spyro tilted his body, and let Cynder slowly slide off of his body. Spyro laid Cynder down on the grass and thought, I need to become stronger, I need to protect you. Spyro scooped up Spark with his hands and placed him on Cynder's head. Spyro turned around and walked a little bit away. Spyro concentrated as hard as he could to control ever bit of power he had. Let's see if I can combine my power, with my convexity, at the same time. Hopefully, I can multiple me power. Instead of shooting out purple, I can shoot out a huge red, and purple beam of light. I also need to work on my defense. I need to find a way to defend my body. Spyro thought. Spyro looked back at Cynder and thought, I need to make sure I won't ever let Cynder go through that kind of pain ever again. Spyro looked back and concentrated.
Volteer slammed onto the ground and growled in pain. Terrador laughed and said, "Come on Volteer. You can't even beat my counter part."
Volteer groaned in pain and mumbled, "It's way harder then it seems."
Cyril looked at Terrador and asked, "How does this room work again?"
"It's like the room we had at the Dragon temple. The only difference is, there is no statue in the middle. The room is like this. First you stand in the middle of the room. Then, you think about what ever you want to fight. Once you have a good, clear, vision of what ever it is, it will appear before you. It reflects the abilities of that someone you summoned. If you wanted to, you could even make that someone you're fighting, even stronger," Terrador responded, with a small smile.
Volteer crawled out of the Circle in the middle of the room and mumbled, "Your turn."
Cyril swallowed hard and walked over to the middle of the ring. Volteer pulled him self off the ground, and looked up at Terrador and said, "There is still one flaw in this whole room. How are we suppose to recover from are fights we have with who ever we fight with?"
Terrador walked to the right side of the room and said, "There is a lever you can pull."
Terrador pulled the lever. The door slowly opened and revealed a huge patch of red and green gems. Volteer smiled and said, "That's amazing, stupendous, fan..."
Volteer cleared his throat and said, "I have gotten better."
Terrador smiled and said, "You should heal up."
Cyril looked over at the room and said, "That's amazing."
Terrador's counter part punched the side of Cyril's face, and slammed him to the ground. Cyril looked up at Terrador's counter part and growled, "You're really starting to get on my last nerve."
Spyro opened his eyes and looked at his claws. Spyro concentrated, and lit his claws on fire. Spyro smiled, and then made his claws turn into ice shards. Spyro smiled at the results. There is one more thing I need to try, Spyro thought. Spyro concentrated as hard as possible. Spyro closed his eyes and shot his body stiff. Spyro opened his eyes and looked at his arm, nothing happened. Spyro shuck his head and thought, Maybe I'm all out of energy. Spyro walked over and punched a pile of green gems. After the gems stopped bouncing into his body, Spyro walked back over to his spot and concentrated. Spyro closed his eyes and shot his body stiff again. Spyro opened his eyes and looked at his arm, nothing. Spyro growled and thought, You want to make Cynder happy, don't you? I need to try harder, I need to keep Cynder happy. Spyro concentrated one last time. Spyro closed his eyes and shot his body stiff. Spyro slowly open his eyes. Spyro looked at his arm to see it was on fire. Spyro looked behind himself to see his whole body was in fire. Spyro smiled and jumped for joy. I need to try my other elements, Spyro thought. Spyro used his lighting ability next. Spyro looked at his body, but nothing was there. Spyro frowned, and looked at his arm. Lightning shot across his arm. Spyro smiled and thought, What does lightning armor do for me? Spyro walked up to a tree and put his paw on it. The lightning shot out of his body and into the tree. The tree exploded. Spyro smiled and thought, what about earth? Spyro used his earth ability next. Spyro looked at his arm. His whole arm was covered in rock. Spyro looked behind him self to see his body was covered in rock as well. Spyro smiled and thought, Rock hard armor, nice. I wonder what convexity would look like. Spyro smiled at the thought and concentrated on his convexity. Cynder slowly picked up her head and yanked. Cynder felt the ground and thought, Wasn't I on Spyro's back? Cynder looked up to see Spyro, consumed in what looked like darkness. Cynder's eyes were wide, as she saw the darkness slowly consuming Spyro's body. Spyro growled in pain and thought, This one is way more challenging then my other elements. Cynder jumped up after Spyro. Sparks hit the ground and groaned, "I thought we had a deal?"
Sparks looked over at Spyro to see the darkness. Sparks saw Cynder running towards Spyro. I can't ever sleep, with out something like this happening. Cynder tackled Spyro to the ground, and wrapped her tail around Spyro's. Cynder wrapped her arms around Spyro's neck, and wrapped her wings around Spyro as well.
"Spyro, please don't leave me! Don't join the darkness! I can't loss you, I won't loss you! Don't you dare leave the once that care about you Spyro! Don't leave me! I care about you, and I won't let leave me!" Cynder cried.
Spyro broke from his thought and looked up at Cynder. Spyro put a paw up to Cynder's face and let a tear run down his eyes. Cynder looked at Spyro and cried, "Please, don't turn... Please, don't leave me!"
Spyro didn't understand what had happened, and asked, "Cynder, I don't understand. Why are you so upset."
"You were about to turn! I saw the darkness consuming you!" Cynder cried.
Spyro frowned and thought, The convexity must have made me look like I was turning. Spyro kissed Cynder on the cheek and whispered, "Cynder, don't worry. I would never leave you. The darkness wasn't consuming me. I was using my convexity."
Cynder wiped away her tears and asked, "So you were never turning? Then what were you doing?"
"I was training. I can send element's to the out side of my body," Spyro responded.
Cynder unwrapped her tails from Spyro's, as well as unwrapping her arms from Spyro's neck Cynder unwrapped her wings from Spyro's body and backed away from Spyro. Cynder let the tears run down her face. Spyro stood to his feet and looked to the ground. I can't believe I hurt Cynder. Why is it every time I try to protect Cynder, I hurt her. I can never do anything right! I'm such a failure! Cynder doesn't deserve a failure, she deserves someone else, someone that will take care of her. I'm might not be able to do it, but someone else can. Someone else... Can love Cynder... someone else... can take care of Cynder... someone else... isn't me. Spyro looked up and walked over to Cynder. I thought I almost lost Spyro, but It was just are convexity. All I need to do, is forget about it. Spyro is fine, I'm fine. No one was hurt. I just need to tell Spyro that. Cynder took a deep breath in and then out. Cynder turned around, and was hugged by Spyro. Spyro wrapped his wings around Cynder, and put his head next to Cynder's. Spyro clenched his teeth and cried, "I know I might not be the greatest dragon in the world, and I know I'm not the one for you, but there are others. I can't make you happy, the only thing I can do is hurt you. I'm so sorry. There are plenty of other dragons out there that would love to have you, sadly, I wasn't one of them, but I was lucky enough to meet you. I'm Sorry that have to leave you, just know, I will always care about you. Goodbye... Cynder."
Cynder shot stiff as she remembered those words. The words from Spyro's nightmare.
Don't worry, there are plenty of others that would love to have you. I wasn't one of the lucky one's, but I was lucky enough to meet you. I'm sorry I had to go, just know, I will all ways care about you.
Cynder watched as Spyro slowly walked away.
"Spyro..." Cynder struggled to say.
Spyro turned around with tears falling out of his eyes. The sight made Cynder dizzy, the sight made Cynder scared, it made Cynder, remember.
Spyro turned around with tears shooting down his eyes. "Goodbye... Monster,"
Spyro turned around and walked towards the bushes. Cynder closed her eye and yell, "Spyro!"
Spyro stopped, and remember what happened when Cynder cried his name, what happened last time Cynder yelled his name.
"Spyro!"
"What happened Cynder? Did anyone hurt you?" Spyro asked.
"You hurt me," Cynder cried.
"What do you mean? How did I hurt you?" Spyro asked.
Every time I called your name, You would yell at me. You told me, the only thing you care about... is seeing me died, underneath the dirt. Then you turned around and walked away from me. You said, goodbye... monster."
In Cynder's dream, I understood why she was hurt from that dream. It wasn't because the dream Spyro called her a monster, It wasn't because he hated her, it was never that at all. It was because he left her, and I'm about to make the same mistake. Cynder tried to run away one time, and the only thing it brought her was pain. I don't want Cynder to feel pain any longer, Spyro thought.
Spyro turned around to see a rain fall of tears, running out of Cynder's eyes. Cynder closed her eyes and whispered, "Don't leave me... you promised you would make me happy. You promised you would protect me... you promised... you wouldn't leave me... you can break your promises... but please, don't break my heart."
Spyro clenched his teeth and thought, I can't watch as Cynder cries her eyes out. Never again, never again. I'm suppose to be helping Cynder, not leaving her. I'm supposed to be... her purple dragon.
"There are two Cynder's I have know. The terror of the sky's, and the beauty of the sky's. To me, you're the beauty, not the terror, and you never were," Spyro said. Cynder smiled and said, "I can't make a good enough statement like that, but you'll always be my purple dragon."
I lied to Cynder, I promised her so much, Spyro thought.
"You don't ever have to worry about being harmed, and you don't ever have to worry about me leaving, I promise," Spyro said.
With out Cynder... what am I truly fighting for, Spyro cried, in his thoughts.
"Thank you for giving me something to fight for," Spyro said.
But if I stay with Cynder, I will have to live with the fact that I hurt her, but did I truly hurt Cynder. I remember what she told me... I remember it well, Spyro cried in his thoughts.
"The only way you could ever hurt me, is if you leave me," Cynder said.
I can't give up on Cynder, I promised I wouldn't, I promised, Spyro cried in his thought. Cynder looked to the ground and growled. Cynder looked up at Spyro and cried, "Spyro! If you walk away now, how will you will continue to care about me?! How will you continue to care for me, for your whole life?!"
Spyro looked away and cried in his thoughts. Cynder looked to the ground and then back up Spyro and cried, "Spyro! There is something you said in my dreams that I stand by! You said, all good things don't come to an end, they only come to an end because we give up. Spyro, please don't give up, Don't let the good things come to an end!"
Spyro turned around and growled in his thoughts, I can't do it, I can't leave Cynder... I can't! I'm not going to hurt Cynder. I will Never... Hurt... Cynder! I will never leave Cynder! I would rather die! I'm not going to make the biggest mistake of my life! That was Malefor's life, One big mistake! Spyro kept his head to the ground and slowly walked towards Cynder. Every step made Cynder smile more and more. Spyro stopped in front of Cynder and cried, "Please help me Cynder! I'm so confused, I'm so scared! I'm so angry, and I don't know why! I don't know what to do! Please Cynder, I'm sorry I hurt you, I didn't mean to hurt you! I was trying to protect you, but I hurt you in the process! Please don't leave me... please."
Cynder started to shed tears of joy and walked next to Spyro. Spyro looked up to see Cynder had disappeared, Spyro growled in pain, but stopped. Spyro looked over to see Cynder was next to him. Cynder smiled and whispered, "isn't it your job to protect me? Or, am I going to have to do it?"
Spyro wrapped his wing around Cynder and cried, "Cynder, I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt..."
"You kept your promises to me. You didn't leave me, you're protecting me, and you're making me happy. Now, I'm going to ask, why are you depressed?" Cynder whispered.
"Because I'm going to lose you! Please Cynder, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you!" Spyro cried.
"Spyro, have you forgotten what you told me. I'm going to tell you, so you understand, why I'm not mad at you. If you ever think I would hate you, You need to wake up from that nightmare, and join the real me. Because if you join the real me, I can join the real you. Then we could be together, all over again. Those were your words. Spyro, I need you to wake up from that nightmare of yours, and join the real me. I want to be with you, all over again. I can't kiss someone, that won't kiss me back," Cynder whispered.
Spyro smiled, and let the tears run down his face. Spyro laid down with Cynder and cried, "You're not mad at me? You don't hate me? You still care about me?"
Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "You never left me, and you never hurt me. I will continue to care about you for as long as you live. Caring for someone can only go a long way, until that someone grows even stronger feelings for that someone. If you would have walked away, I wouldn't be able to tell you. The only punishment you have is, you now have to wait even longer for me to ask my question."
Spyro frowned and cried in his thoughts, Was she going to tell me she loved me? Why is she waiting? Why, why, why. Cynder saw Spyro was still struggling with him self. Cynder frowned, and then smiled and kissed Spyro on the cheek. Cynder pulled away and smiled at Spyro. Spyro looked over at Cynder, confused, scared, and angry. Cynder frowned and whispered, "Aren't you supposed to make me happy. When you look Confused, I feel confused. When you looked scared, I feel scared. When I look angry... I feel empty. Spyro, Please come back to me. I need you back, I need, my purple dragon back. Please bring him back. I don't want to feel scared anymore. I want to feel happy again, I want to feel your face on mine, I want to feel your kisses again. Please, come back to me. Be the Spyro I know, the one I care about, the one I care for."
I don't want to destroy Cynder's life. We were so happy in the morning, we were together again, we were happy again, I can't loss this feeling. It's fading away, but it's not to late to save this feeling. It's not to late, to continue to love Cynder. To continue to make her happy. I'm not letting go of these feelings, I'm not letting go of Cynder, Spyro thought, with a small smile.
Spyro, make me proud, The Chronicler whispered to Spyro.
Spyro's smile was huge. I will, dad. Were ever you are, know your son is happy. Know your son has found the love of his life. Know, that I will make Cynder happy. Cynder smiled at Spyro's smile and cried with a with tears, "There is the Spyro I know."
There is the Spyro I love, Cynder thought. Spyro nuzzled Cynder's cheek and cried, "You never gave up on me. I don't know how I could ever thank you, but, thank you. You helped me, so much today."
Cynder smiled and whispered, "I'm just returning the favor. I will never give up on you, and you want to know why?"
Spyro pulled away and looked into Cynder's eyes and asked, "Why?"
"Because you're the only one for me. You're the only one I can hold in my arms, and kiss ever day. You're the only one I can truly care about. You never hurt me, because you never left me. And because you never left me, you made me happy," Cynder cried, tears of joy.
Spyro put his head on top of Cynder's and whispered, "I'm sorry I almost left you. I was so scared, confused, and angry. I couldn't even tell which way was up, or down. But you never gave up on me, why?"
Cynder smiled and whispered, "Because you never gave up on me. You don't know it yet, but you are more to me then just Spyro. I can't loss you. Don't ever think you hurt me, ever again. If you leave me, you will hurt me. But until that day comes, you will never hurt me."
Spyro backed his head off of Cynder and cried, "What do you mean, until that day. I can't leave you, I can't Cynder, I can't, I just, I can't! Please don't say that, Please, we have been through so much together. I don't want to be pulled apart from you, Please."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "I was wondering if you would catch on to that. Spyro, as long as you don't leave me, you have nothing to worry about. I'm not going to leave my purple dragon. As long as you don't leave me, you will never have to worry."
Spyro laid his head down a tried to breath. Cynder put her head next to Spyro's and whispered, "I just need you to promise me something, please."
Spyro smiled softly and asked, "If it will keep you from leaving me, I will do what ever it takes."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "Promise me, you will never do that again. Seeing you like this, was so scary. It was like you didn't care about anything anymore, it was like you didn't care about me. Please, promise me you will stay the Spyro I know. Don't ever be that kind of Spyro ever again."
"I promise, to everything. I will make you happy again. I said I would fight for your happiness if you lost it, and that is exactly what I'm going to do. I'm sorry Cynder, you will never see that side of me, ever again," Spyro whispered.
Sparks flew over to Cynder and whispered, "I told you. Spyro does have a flaw in him."
Cynder shuck her head and grabbed Sparks. Sparks tried to brake free, but failed. Cynder looked at Sparks and whispered, "That wasn't a flaw in Spyro, because that wasn't Spyro. I know Spyro and that wasn't him. He thought I hated him, and because of that, he lost it, because he thought he was going to loss me. I would've acted the same way. I love Spyro, and I'm not letting him go."
Spyro looked down at the ground and shuck in fear. What happened to me? It was like I wasn't my self, what happened.
Spyro, don't not fear. If you continue to fear, you will destroy your self, you will hurt Cynder. I will tell you want happened, but at a price. The Chronicler said to Spyro, in his thoughts.
Of course, anything. I need to make sure it will never happen again. I don't ever what that to happen again, Spyro cried in his thoughts.
The price is, you need to come and visit me, sooner then you think. I'm getting really lonely, and I could use some help with my books, The Chronicler joked.
Spyro chucked, which caused Cynder and Sparks to look over at Spyro.
So much for that time off you told me about. But, Please. Tell me what happened. I don't want Cynder to see that side of me ever again. For some reason, I couldn't feel my body, but now, I'm able to. What happened to me? Spyro asked.
Spyro it's good that you are trying to learn about your powers and all, but convexity is something you shouldn't mess around with. The evil side of you leaked out of your body when you used you tried to control it. Using convexity is easy, controlling it, that is a different story. The powers you have are good enough to help in protecting Cynder, but convexity. You need to wait until you're older before you start to master that. If it wasn't for Cynder, you would've been completely consumed into darkness. My advice for you, don't mess around with convexity. It's kind of hard for you to protect Cynder, when you would've killed her, The Chronicler said, shivering at the last sentence.
What! What do you mean I killed Cynder! Spyro yelled in his thoughts.
From the pool of visions, I saw the future, many futures in fact. There were three that caught my eye. One of them, you killed Cynder, another one was, you killed the Guardians in rage of Cynder leaving you. The last one, you killed your self out of guilt. You thought, if Cynder feels pain, so should I, The Chronicler said, smiling at the fact that none of those futures happened.
Any good news? I can't really do any more bad news, Spyro asked, shaking away the thoughts of him losing Cynder.
I think you will love to hear this one, but you have to keep your promises you make to Cynder, or else this will never happen, The Chronicler said.
Of course. I promise. I also promise, I will never use convexity as a tool. Now, what did you see?" Spyro said.
You kissed Cynder, and not on the Cheek, but on the lips, The Chronicler said.
Spyro shot red and asked, What kind of future was that?
When ever Cynder landed on you, you kissed her, and told her everything would be fine. When you kissed her, you eliminated all of the guilt in your body. Because you did that, the darkness wasn't able to take control. But, because you didn't kiss Cynder, and blamed your self for her pain, you let the darkness easily slip out of your body. Spyro, sentence of advice. Trust Cynder. She trust you, now you need to trust her. If you don't, you will never be able to love Cynder, and she will never be able to love you, The Chronicler said, hinting at the love part.
Wait. Are you telling me, Cynder does love me? Spyro asked, in fear of the answer.
Don't fear for the answer, instead, trust the answer. It's coming from Cynder after all. Trust her, and everything will turn out fine. Just trust Cynder, I know you can do it. I have seen you grow. The Chronicler said, with a small smile.
When we get there, you better not hide your face. You sound so familiar, and I need to see if you are who I think you are. I doubt it, but it doesn't hurt to have hope, Spyro said, letting a tear fall down his face.
There's the Spyro I know. Don't let go of that word, and don't let go of Cynder. I will probably help you in the future, but what happens next, is up to you. I have to continue my work, but know this when you talk to Cynder, she still cares about you, she is just scared for you. Show her the Spyro she knows. Tell her, everything will be alright. She will never hate you. Good luck Spyro, I believe in you, The Chronicler said, with a small tear falling down his face. I miss you, please don't take to long to get here. You still owe me that hug. The Chronicler thought to him self, letting another tear fall down his face.
Spyro turned around and smiled at Cynder. Cynder had a confused look on her face, and asked, "Who were you talking to?"
"Probably himself. He is crazy dragon," Sparks joked.
Spyro smiled at Sparks, and looked down at Cynder and responded, "I was talking to the Chronicler. He was feeling lonely, and he needed someone to talk to, so he was speaking to me from one mind to another."
Sparks made spooky ghost noises with his mouth and said, "Magic."
Spyro laughed at Sparks and said, "Not magic Sparks. I would explain it to you, but I know that your tiny little brain, wouldn't be able to understand."
Cynder smiled at Spyro's attitude and thought, I knew you wouldn't leave me. I knew I would be able to see you again, Spyro. Spyro looked at Cynder and smiled, Cynder smiled back and asked, "Did you ask the Chronicler about what happened?"
Spyro smiled and responded, "The reason I wasn't my self, was because I was fighting my self. When I tried to control the convexity ability we had, some of the convexity leaked out darkness from my body. The darkness corrupted my brain, it made me confused, and angry. You actually prevented the darkness from taking over my whole body."
Cynder was surprised and joked, "Does this mean I saved you?"
Spyro smiled and joked, "You didn't save me, you protected me. Your still not in the clear just yet."
Cynder smiled at Spyro and whispered, "I don't ever want to be in the clear, because then I will have to worry about you leaving me again."
Spyro smiled at Cynder put his head next to Cynder's, and whispered, "I'm here for you, and I'm with you, all the way. I will do what ever it takes to make sure you will never have to worry, ever again. I will just come up this another excuse for you to stay with me."
Cynder raised a brow and asked, "What's the new excuse?"
"The day I turn blue, and the day you turn green, is the day I leave you," Spyro whispered, with a small smile.
"Turn green, were did you come up with that?" Cynder asked, with a raised brow.
"I know Sparks would pick on us if it really did happen, and I know he doesn't know the color of grass, so I know he will never be able to pick on you," Spyro joked.
"The two of you, are the reason I still cry," Sparks said, joining along with the joke.
Spyro pulled away and smiled at Cynder, Cynder smiled back. Spyro frowned and murmured, "I'm sorry if I hurt..."
"Don't say it. I don't want the doubting side of Spyro, I want the caring side of Spyro. I need to be cared for, especially after what happened. I need you to care for me, please. Let the doubting side of you go, and let the real Spyro show. Because that is who I care about," Cynder whispered to Spyro.
Spyro shed a tear and smiled at Cynder's words. Spyro wrapped his tail around Cynder's and kissed her cheek. Spyro pulled away and whispered, "I guess if I can't doubt my self anymore, and I especially can't doubt you. The only thing I can do, is care for you, care about you."
And soon, I will love you as well, Spyro thought a small smile. Spyro laid his head down as Cynder followed. Sparks landed on Spyro's head and asked, "Are you two going to bed?"
"Of course. It's night time, which indicates, nap time," Spyro responded.
"I'm still wide awake, I guess I should try and get some sleep. I can only imagine how much I'm going to get smacked around tomorrow," Sparks said, laying his head down.
Cynder looked at Spyro and whispered, "Welcome back. Thank you for not pulling the same mistake I made a while back. Thank you, for being there for me. I knew I could trust you."
"Trust, such a strong word, depending on how you use it. Trust is something that I have for you, because I know, I can trust you. I know I can trust you, to be there for me in the morning," Spyro whispered.
Cynder smiled at Spyro's words, and whispered, "And I know I can trust you to be there for me in the morning as well."
"Good night... Cynder? I actually have a quick question to ask. This guy you were talking about yesterday. Do you trust him? Does this guy make you who you are today?" Spyro asked, with hope of Cynder saying yes.
Cynder blushed at Spyro's words, and responded, "Yes. He has made me very happy. And I hope I can make him happy."
Spyro shuck with excitement and whispered, "He already has."
Cynder smiled and whispered, "I know, and apparently, so does he."
Spyro shuck with even more excitement. Spyro and a huge smile form across his face. The smile made Cynder smile. Welcome back, Spyro, Cynder thought, with a small smile. Spyro closed his eyes and whispered, "Good night, Cynder."
Cynder smiled and whispered, "Good night, Spyro"
I love you, Spyro thought, in unison of Cynder's thought.
Volteer slammed onto the ground, as well as Cyril. Terrador's counter part smiled at the two and laughed. Volteer looked at Cyril, as Cryil looked over at Volteer. The two shuck their head's at each other and looked back up at Terrador's counter part. Volteer shot a burst of lightning, while Cyril shot a storm of Ice shards. The Lightning paralyzed Terrador's counter part, wall the Ice shards stabbed right through his body. Terrador's counter part growled in pain, and was disintegrated into a gas of smoke. Terrador smiled at the two and said, "Congratulations, it only took you two the hole day. Don't worry about the room, the moles love building, and repairing things. "
Volteer stood to his paws, as well as Cyril. The two walked over to the gem room and smashed a couple of gems to heal their body's. Terrador walked over and said, "If you thought that was bad, try going up against Spyro in this thing. I took one step, next thing I knew, I was on the floor. When you two faced off against me, that was half of Spyro's power."
Volteer walked away from Terrador and said, "I will never do this, ever again. I'm going to sleep. And by sleep, I mean cry in pain from, well, the pain. Gems can't heal everything."
Cyril was the next one to walk away. Cyril stopped, and looked at Terrador, and asked, "How do you think Spyro is doing?"
"He has Cynder. There is nothing for us to worry about. She will make him happy," Terrador responded, with a small smile.
Cyril chuckled, and said, "It's pretty funny, how we were keeping Spyro away from her. And now, we're letting Spyro go on adventures with her. It's crazy how things can change in an instant."
Terrador smiled at Cyril and said, "Cynder's not a murderer, she is a dragon, just like the rest of us. She has made Spyro happy, and Spyro has made her happy. The two were made for each other. I'm just wondering if they have told each other yet. If they haven't, maybe they will soon. But I guess we can't tell the future, only the Chronicler can. But I don't need to be the Chronicler to tell me future, is going to be me, sleeping on my bed."
Cyril smiled at Terrador and said, "Then let's get some sleep. We have a new day ahead of us, and we shouldn't miss a single second of it."
Terrador smiled at Cyril and walked out the training room. Terrador walked with Cyril to the Guardians chambers and smiled at his thoughts, It's good to see Spyro is happy. After Ignitus died, Spyro was all alone, but it was a good thing he had Cynder. Those two sure are a pair. Cyril walked into the Guardians chambers with Terrador, and Terrador was broken from his thoughts. Cyril walked to the back of the wall and opened up the door. Four huge beds were spread apart from each other. Cyril walked over and crawled onto his bed, which was the left one. Terrador sleeps on the middle bed, and Volteer sleeps on the right bed. Another bed was in the middle, where Ignitus slept. Terrador crawled into his bed and looked at Cyril. Cyril looked back and asked, "Is something troubling you?"
"I was just think, it's going to be real weird having a hatchling running up and down the hall," Terrador said.
Cyril was confused, and asked, "Of course we're going to have hatchlings running up and down the hall. There are going to be family's."
"I know that, but I'm talking about a hatchling that runs around, calling out for Spyro, or Cynder's name," Terrador said.
Cyril eyes were wide, at what Terrador was saying.
"Are you trying to imply that Spyro would have a family with Cynder?" Cyril asked.
"I'm thinking to far into the future. But, Yes. I do believe so. Just, what ever you do, do not mention the hatchling thing while Cynder, and Spyro, are in the same room. That would be very awkward for them," Terrador said.
Cyril laid his head down, as well as Terrador. Terrador closed his eyes and thought, Don't let him down Cynder. I haven't seen him this happy since he was with Ignitus. Please, don't let Spyro down. Cyril closed his eyes and thought, A hatchling, would Spyro really have a family with Cynder. No, Spyro likes Cynder, but he definitely doesn't love Cynder, does he? I guess the future will tell.
Terrador, as well as Cyril, slowly drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
