Spyro meets Spyro
The Black Egg
L. Hunter had been following the scent for hours and finally made it to his destination, and he could not believe it. He was at the entrance to the catacombs to the Mountain of Malefor It was here that he first met L. Spyro and Cynder one year ago. "My goodness," he said in shock. "This is a weird place to hide an egg." He entered cautiously and kept his knife in his hand. Just like with Cynder, L. Hunter was surprised nothing attempted to attack him as he progressed through.
"Nah nah, nah nah nah!" A voice taunted him. He turned around and saw a man dressed in a blue robe carrying the black egg with golden stripes. "Heh-heh-heh!" He ran off with the egg further into the catacombs. L. Hunter chased after him with his bow ready.
"Stop! Come back with that egg!" L. Hunter chased after the thief at his top speed, but somehow the thief was able to run even faster than the cheetah! "Return that egg this instant! Why are you even doing this?!" The chase went on for fifteen minutes. Finally, they made to a large platform with a collapsed pillar on top of it, they were at the room where L. Hunter met Cynder and L. Spyro. "By God, how did we end up here?" As the thief taunted L. Hunter, a large blue crystal appeared and crushed him to death. L. Hunter could only watch as the crystal absorbed the egg and began to take form. First it grew two tiny legs, then it formed a torso with a small gut and a massive chest, then it grew two large and powerful arms, finally it grew a large head with a bad eye. The crystal guardian took the form of Gaul the ape king. The black egg was visible where it's heart should be. It swung at L. Hunter with no hesitation. L. Hunter was able to dodge most of the attacks, but his own attacks did nothing to the beast. "How is this happening? It's as if the egg is animating it." Two swords appeared in the guardians hands and it began slashing at the cheetah. "Please! Stop this! What are your intentions anyway?!"
The crystal spoke in Gaul's voice. "Heh wouldn't you like to know? Well, I can't tell you because you are with those heartless dragons!"
"Heartless? What do you mean?"
"Never mind that. You are going to die right now anyway, so it doesn't matter. Goodbye!" The crystalline Gaul made even more fierce swipes.
L. Hunter thought for a long time while he dodged the attacks. 'Hmm. Crystal is weakened by sound. If I can produce a high enough pitch, it should make this fight easier,' he thought to himself. He looked around to find something to make an echo. He saw a large hollow corridor not to far away. 'Perfect. Now I just need to lure it there.' He moved closer to the empty corridor and made sure the guardian followed. As soon as they were inside, he pulled out his flute and played the highest note he could. His plan was working, the crystaline Gaul was screaming in pain from the loud noise. L. Hunter was also in pain but he heid the note regardless. Finally after a minute, the crystal gave off a high pitched screatch and melted. L. Hunter saw the black egg resting on the ground and he walked up to it and picked it up. "Well that's a relief," he said exhausted from blowing the flute for a whole minute. "Now let's get you home."
