Chapter 9 I would like to take all those who are reading my stories. I really puts me in a good mood. A.N: I will try to make this chapter third person.

Holding Tactic and Goodbye?

When day came, our lookout finally saw The Destroyer. As Sora gazed at the creature, he wondered how they were going to stop. From what Ignitus said, we had only a small amount of time to stop it before he crossed the belt of fire.

Sora looked over at Spyro and Cynder and saw that Cynder look like she was coming up with a plan. It also seem like Aros was thinking the same thing.

It did not take long to realize what those two were thinking about.

"You are planing on blowing up the dam right" Sora asked.

"Yeah" Cynder said

"That is genus" Spyro replied

"I have my moments"

We quickly agreed that while Spyro and Cynder go blow up that damned dam (Sorry just had to put that there) and the rest of us would engage the Destroyer to try and slow it down.

Sora was about to fly when he suddenly crashed. He was bewildered as to why he could not fly anymore. It was then that Aros offered some advice.

"Try to use my wings"He said from the inside of Sora's mind.

Unable to come up with anything else, Sora started to imagine that he had the wings of a dragon.

When Sora opened his eyes, he was in complete shock. A pair of wings that were similar to Aros in every possible way had appeared on his back.

Not giving it a second thought, Sora made his way to help out the rest of the army hold off the Destroyer. The fighting was brutal and it did not seem like we were causing him any real damage.

Sora then notice a dark glow resonating on the Destroyer. He moved in closer and discovered that it was a dark crystal.

"So that is how the beast stays alive." Sora thought as he pulled out his keyblades.

A bunch of regular grunt tropes appeared and from the looks of it, they were order to defend the crystals.

Sora started to engage them and was surprised at how much he had improved since gaining his dragon form. He was swinging his keyblades faster and they were hitting harder. He was able to react to attacks faster then before. It almost look like Sora knew the attack was coming before it even happen.

When Sora destroyed the first crystal. It stalled the Destroyer in the canyon for just a minute. However, it was a minute too late. Sora noticed the sound of rushing water and looked over to see Spyro and Cynder leading a massive wave at the Destroyer. He got stalled in the water and we now had plenty of time to destroy him.

Spyro and Cynder regroup on me and we made our way through to find the rest of the crystals keeping him alive.

The fight was rough and there were a few close calls but we eventually got to the last crystal. The group was wondering why the Destroyer was still active. It took a while before Sora came up with an idea on how to put it out of action once and for all.

"If we can get inside of him, we might be able to destroy the heart."

"Whoa...you actually want to go inside of this thing?" Sparx replied

"Come on Sparx we are going to need you to light the way."Spyro replied

Sparx quickly agreed and we got to the mouth of the Destroyer.

"Is everyone ready?" Sora asked

They all nodded there heads and we then took a leap of faith into the insides of the monster. We quickly transition into flying and made our approach.

After several passes, constant smashing of a piece of rock that look like a heart, avoiding stomach lava, and dealing with a winning Sparx, we finally destroyed the last crystal. Unfortunately, it set off a chain reaction that caused the lava to shoot out.

"Why am I having a serious case of been there done that?" Sora thought as he put on an extra burst of speed to get away from the rising lava.

After a few tense moments, we finally got out of the Destroyer's inside just in time to see it deform on itself. I felt a sense of accomplishment that I was able to advert a natural disaster from happening.

Our celebration was cut shot as a purple energy beam came from the temple where Malefor was at and hit the Destroyer. We watched with utter confusion as the monster started to crawl to its objective. It breached the ring of fire and I saw that the belt somehow weakened.

I could tell that there was little we could do right now. I also knew what I needed to do. We quickly got a plan of evacuation into order and a plan for a surprise strike at Malefor himself. As Terrador started the evacuation of our army, Sora turned over to Spyro and Cynder just as they finished explaining to Sparx why he could not go. I could see the depression in his face as he flew away and then there eyes turned on me.

"You know you won't be able to stop Malefor if you stand around here." Sora replied

"We are ready to go when you are." Spyro said

"I am not going."

What...why?"Cynder replied

"This is your destiny, both of your destinies. My destiny is not to face the dark master. I have watched you two grow up from small dragon into fighters and I am so proud to be friends with you."

"I don't understand." Spyro said

"Do you want to know something" they both nodded there head and Sora continued."All the stuff that has happen, all of your fights, adventures, everything. Well, none of that would have changed if I was not here."

"What do you mean?" Cynder asked

"I technically don't exist in this world. I could have done nothing and you still would be at the same position. I have full confidence that you two will take down Malefor. Just remember to always fallow your heart and you can never fail."

The two dragons understand but just before they could take off, Sora had one last thing to say.

"Wait...before you go, I have a gift for you two." Sora then pulled out two small bottles that were the color yellow and had stars on them.

"What are they?" They asked

"They are called 'elixirs' they will restore your strength when all else fails. You need to drink the whole thing before it can take effect so use it wisely."

"Thank you Sora"

They took the bottles and started to fly to the belt of fire with Ignitus right behind them.

"May the ancestors look after you two. May they look after us all." Sora replied as he made his way back to the ruins of Warfang.

Bet you didn't see that one coming. Now what will I do now that I have split up Sora from Spyro and Cynder. Find out on the next chapter. Personally, I hated how this chapter turned out. I will switch back to first person with Sora POV next chapter.

A.N:I forgot to add this in my last chapter of My Imagination but think of this as another hint to a name.

The spirit has a very intelligent mind. He is able to figure out problems with relative ease. However, he has a thing for military tactics. He likes to look at a situation and solve it from a military standpoint. This makes him an effective general.

P.S Sorry for the delay. The site would not let me submit new stuff.

R & R please
