Monkey Monastery

After the grueling battle against Gulp, the Dragon Elders decided to let Spyro recover in the Dragon Dojo which meant that Ember and Flame had to explore the Monkey Monastery alone and bring Bentley and Agent 9 fo rback up.

Flame: Spyro goes off to battle one of Ripto's monsters and now we have to do his work while he's resting from that boss fight.

Ember: Spyro's battle with Gulp only shows that the Crows are the strongest enemies we've faced yet and we've only seen Argus in battle.

Flame knew what Ember meant for if Argus and Gulp were that strong then there's no telling how much stronger Ripto had become and he had been a featherweight compared to the Sorceress and Red himself.

Soon the two arrived at the airship that would take them to the Monkey Monastery.

Flame: Well this is it. The airship that will take us to the monastery.

Ember: And the place is probably swarming with Crows by now. Powerful ones. Not to mention Riptocs and who knows what else.

Flame gulped knowing that the crows would be even stronger than before.

The Two got on the ship as it sailed to the Monkey Monastery.

In Prince Talon's Castle, Talon, Ripto, Argus, Yang, and Edwin were reviewing the footage of Gulp's battle with Spyro and discussing plans.

Ripto: Gulp has failed to dispose of that purple dragon even with your power. What kind of power was that Prince Talon?

Prince Talon: But we did do a number on that dragon. No way he'll be fighting any time soon. This gives us a chance to accelerate our plans and take over the world.

Ripto: Yes the sooner we do so the sooner we can rule the Dragon Realms and the Forgotten Worlds.

Yang: But we need to be careful. Our enemies are gonna get even stronger than before and they'll have a plan to try and defeat us.

Edwin: Which means we need to be aware of any of Spyro's other allies.

Argus: According to the crows in Monkey Monastery and the ones flying above the dragon realms Ember and Flame were last seen heading to the Monkey Monastery. Most likely they're planning to clear out the area and they're not alone. They have a yeti named Bentley and a monkey named Agent 9. I don't know who else among Spyro's allies could withstand the cold but there's a good chance that penguin Sgt. Byrd could be there.

Talon And we don't know much about them or who else could handle the cold climate which means we need to do some surveillance. Argus get your shield and come with me.

Edwin: You can't be serious about challenging two dragon, a yeti, a monkey and a penguin are you your highness?

Talon: I'm going to observe and perhaps run some interference so we can come up with a good plan to eliminate our enemies.

Yang: In that case we'll hold down the fort while you and Argus are away on your mission.

Argus and Prince Talon headed out leaving Yang, Edwin and Ripto at the castle to talk strategies and defeat Spyro the Dragon and his allies once and for all.

In the Monkey Monastery, Ember and Flame met up with Sgt. Byrd the Penguin, Bentley the Yeti and Agent 9 the Monkey. Hunter already took to the skies in his biplane to destroy the Riptocs factories that the Riptocs and crows created to destroy the Monkey Monastery leaving Ember, Flame and their team free to focus on the Riptocs and the Crows and figure out what the enemy was up to in the area.

Bentley: So Spyro's recopurating from a grueling battle against one of Ripto's monsters?

Flame: That's right. Gulp was stronger than the last time Spyro fought him so basically we're in for a fight if we have to face Crush.

Agent 9: Well let's get in there and kick some riptoc and crow butt. Who's with me?

Sgt. Byrd Hold up there old chap. First we need a plan and Ember and Flame may need to get more power.

Ember: And just where are we supposed to get more power to take on the Crows?

Bentley: We are a team are we not? So acquiring the power we need shouldn't be a problem cause the strongest power we have is our teamwork.

Sgt. Byrd: Either way we better get going. The sooner we do the sooner we can return to the dragon realms.

The team agreed and they began to explore the Monkey Monastery with Agent 9 leading the way, Sgt. Byrd providing aerial support, Ember and Flame in the Center and Bentley covering the rear. Sometimes they ran into mammoths but flame used his fire breath to handle it, sometimes they ran into Riptocs but Ember and Agent 9 worked together with Flame and Bentley while Sgt. Byrd took down the vultures but what they didn't know was that Prince Talon and Argus had been spying on them the entire time.

Argus: Well your highness it seems that some of our enemies are stronger that we expected.

Prince Talon: Indeed. We've gathered a lot of footage. We'll need to head back to the castle to think of a plan.

Back with the heroes they finished clearing the area and were about to head home via the exit portal.

Ember: Well this is it. After exploring the monastery and meeting the locals I think it's safe to assume that we'll be due to fight Ripto soon enough.

Bentley: indeed but for now let's go home.

The group agreed to that as they headed home.

Back in the Dragon Dojo Spyro was still recovering but Sparx showed up to give him news.

Spyro: So how did the mission to the Monkey Monastery go?

Sparx: You'll be happy to know that the Monkey Monastery is cleared of Riptocs and Crows. Ember and Flame led the charge.

Spyro: Good to know. I better get out there and join them.

Spyro attempted to move but he felt some pain in his limbs.

Sparx: Take it easy Spyro. You took a lot of damage after your battle with Gulp and I had a word with the elders on that. They told me that another day's rest will do you some good. Besides Ember and Flame have things under control at the moment.

Spyro sighed knowing that Sparx had a point and he also knew that Ember and Flame would be able to pick up the slack.
