Chapter 12: Desperate attempt

(Cynder)

After all the questioning that Shadow and I did I was a little tired. I was surprised to see that dark Dragon tired as well. But I was not able to sleep the same way he was. There was something that he asked me that kept ringing in my head.

He had asked me about the statues in the city. I had dodged the question because I didn't want to remember what happened 3 years ago. But then Shadow stood up and motioned me back into the cage.

"Maybe I can find out about my self later. But Scorch will need to be informed about a few things as well. So lets hope your good for something at least." Shadow said. I had to think fast.

We made it to the main Room and laying there was what used to be Burn. "Finished your questioning." Scorch asked. I had an idea. I hoped it was enough to wake Burn up out of this darkness but it was worth a try.

"You asked about the statues in the city Earlier right." I said. Shadow and Scorch both looked at me. "What is she talking about." Scorch said. I just gasped. Malefor probably took that part of his memory away so he can be fully consumed by darkness.

"When I attacked the city. I saw statues of 8 young dragons around the city." Shadow said. He then looked at me. "What are they for." He asked. I hated reliving these memories. Mainly because of what happened.

"They are for remembering who fought against Mathias. They are Me, Spyro, Flame, Ember, Winter, Crunch, Burn, And Storm." I said. saying the last two names hurt me some. Storm was dead and Burn was gone.

I looked at Scorch who had a shocked look. It was as I thought. He remembered who he used to be just not what he had done. "I don't ever remember fighting in any war." Scorch said.

It answered several of my questions. But it left one still hanging in my head. Who was I and what was Master Malefor trying to hide from me. I needed to know. And I planned to find out who I was no matter what happened.

"You wouldn't remember it. Malefor took some of your memory away as well." Cynder said. I looked at Scorch who seamed to shift nervously. I then figured out what she was doing.

'Clever girl. No wonder Malefor want her to serve him still.' I thought. She was trying to get Burn his memory back. Which wasn't going to happen easy. "It is no us in trying to get your friend back if thats what your trying for." I said.

She looked at me again. "Well can I at least finish my explanation for you if your still interested." cynder said. I nodded. I was rather curious as to why statues were made for those who were still alive.

"Ours were there for ceremonial purposes. Because it was a way of thanking us for saving the city. Burn's was made as a memorial. No one thought he was coming back from his world so his statue was made." Cynder said.

Hearing that part caught my attention. "What do you mean by not coming back. Just where did Burn go." I asked. Cynder just looked at me. "Your master didn't tell you every thing did he." She said.

"Come on out with it. I don't like waiting for answers." I said. "Burn comes from a different world. In fact his name isn't really Burn. Thats his dragon name. His real name is River. And he was from the same world as Mathias." Cynder said.

I looked at Scorch for a bit. If this was true there was a possible way that Burn could fight his way back Which neither me nor master Malefor wanted. "If so then why make a Statue for him then." I asked.

"Because he is a hero and he saved the city." Cynder said. The answers was a little on the side that I didn't expect. It still didn't make any sense. Why make a statue for a human even if he was a hero.

I just ignored that question for now. "Scorch your turn for questioning. I need to rest for another attempt." I said glaring at Cynder. "If you not on our side when your friends get here. Then Spyro will be taken. We need one more to free our master after all." I said.

I saw her charge at her cage at that little statement. But it was a true fact. I would have to catch the purple dragon and turn him if cynder wasn't with us when he arrives.

(Spyro)

After we gathered our friends and showed them the message they pretty much got the picture of what was going on. "I can't believe this. It was Corbin the whole time." Crunch said.

"We can't blame him. He is under the Dark master's influence." I said. I could tell he was still sad about Storms death. She was Crack's mother and Crunch's mate after all. None of us could blame him.

"If you want to hurt some one, let it be the dark master." I said. I was a little worried. Me and Cynder nearly died fighting Malefor the first time. I knew that if he was coming back things were going to be different because he knows how me and Cynder fight.

There had to be away to stop him from being freed again thou. Their just had to be. I wasn't willing to go threw the same horror's that I went through before just to stop him from destroying our world.

I looked at every one and I knew what was coming so it was only fair that they knew to. "Listen every one. Malefor is no one to take lightly. Chances are even if we find our friends they could already be made evil by Malefor." I said.

"If this is the case we will fight them but only to free them." I said. "But if Malefor is freed we will have a lot of trouble on our hands. He nearly killed me and Cynder when we fought him." I said.

"Well it is different this time. You have us." Crunch said. I looked at them and smiled. He was right. It wasn't just two of us facing the Dark master this time. Their was 7 of us. If we could rescue Burn and Cynder in time.

I looked at the mountains in the distance. 'If they are any where. They are at the place were Malefor has fallen last time.' I thought. I knew that this rescue mission was dangerous but we had to do it. They would do the same for us.

(Shadow)

I woke up a few hours later ready. This time Cynder would fall. I had the answer to almost all of my questions. I would find out the others as we did our jobs. I got up and made myself look bigger again.

I was different from Scorch in many ways. One being my eyes were' t pure white. I could change my color. And I wasn't that massive size all the time. I could change back to the same size as Cynder.

I walked out into the cell area where we kept her and I saw that she was not doing to well. I knew that either she would become the Terror of the skies again. Or she would be bait to lure Spyro here.

Either way this was the last attempt. I walked up to her cage and looked at her. "I hope your ready Cynder." I said. And I started what I tried before. I could feel her mind fighting. But this time it was losing.

I saw her hold onto her head then fall to the ground. I felt her will to fight it leave her. Then she started growing bigger again until she was as big as me and Scorch. Spyro was in for the fight of a life time.

Cynder the small dragoness that helped beat Malefor was gone. And Cynder the terror of the skies was back. I opened the cage and let her walk out when she awoke. "It is nice to see you back." I said.

Cynder looked at me with the same eye's that Scorch had. "It feels nice to finally be back. I will not fail my master this time." Cynder said. I smiled and laughed. Our team was ready. Now it was time to free our master.

(Cynder)

I felt powerful and full of my energy once again. I was back and this time the little welp Spyro was going to pay for once again in prisoning our master. He one the first time but this time I was ready. I was not going to lose.

I looked around and saw Scorch come in next to Shadow. "Lets get this done. Master wants to be here to meet Spyro himself. He wants pay back for what he has done to him." Scorch said.

I nodded. I was ready. This time Master would succeed in taking over this world. And all 3 of us are going to help him do so. I looked back at the cave entrance. "Run here as fast as you can Spyro. We are waiting." I said.
