"It looks like I made it in time. Now we have to get away from those flames." Spyro said.
"What are you doing here?" Rai asked, backing away from the blue flames with Spyro.
"I came here to help you out." Spyro said, turning towards Rai. "I found out that you were going to be in trouble, so I came here as fast as I could."
"Right I bet that you did it on the Guardians' order. They probably found out that I defeated Malefor, and they sent you to stop me from causing any more trouble."
"No, I came here of my own free will, I even disobeyed orders in order to do what I thought was right." Spyro replied. When Cynder ran away I didn't go after her because the Guardians did not let me. As a result I almost lost her. I left for two years because I was ordered to. I could have stayed in Warfang if I had just said no, but I didn't do it. I believed that because I was the purple dragon that I had to be more obedient than others. Leaving for two years caused me Cynder's love. I will not lose my brother just because they ordered me not to help him.
"That isn't like you Spyro. You always follow orders absolute. I like this change in you." Rai said, smiling.
"Don't get the wrong idea. I haven't become as rebellious as you, but I will no longer follow orders that go against in what I believe. So are you going to give me any information on this guy?"
"Sure, first off you should know that this guy is our father."
"He's what?" Spyro asked stunned by what he had just been told.
"Yea, that guy is our father. As you can see he is pretty strong. That blue fire of his is pretty strong."
"Well it looks like someone else has joined this battle." Solaris said, walking into the blue flames. "And what do you know it's the legendary purple dragon. Hmmm, what is this? The two of you look almost exactly alike except for the color of your scales, and the fact that Rai has more spikes on his head. So both of my children survived, and both were born as legendary dragons."
"How do you know?" Rai asked.
"I never knew the last celestial dragon, but I was told of what he looked like and what he could do. Those grey scales fit the description exactly." Solaris said.
"Rai you're a legendary dragon?" Spyro questioned.
"Spyro I already said this; you are my enemy so I won't tell you anything. Besides we have a bigger problem right now. We have to defeat this guy."
"Alright then," Spyro said, shifting his focus to Solaris. "If you are our father then why are you attempting to kill us?"
"Rai chose to fight with me because he saw me as an obstacle. It's sad that both of you are being controlled like puppets by higher forces."
"I'll show you what this so called puppet can…aaahhh." Rai screamed as his body was once again enveloped by blue flame. He looked towards his teammates, and saw that they were also covered in flames. He guessed that they could only take two more before the pain became critical. "Sypher as much as it might tempt you to use your element don't. Use it as a last resort if I can't stop it after two more burns use it on the third."
"Rai you are in no condition to fight. That attack he put on you looks quite troublesome. I will take him on alone." Spyro said.
"Don't be foolish, I'm a rank above you, and look what happened to me. You don't stand a chance against him." Rai said.
"Maybe not but," Spyro said, activating his divine eyes ability. "If I can figure out how his attacks work I might able to come up with a way to stop his fire from burning you guys." He said, opening his mouth. "Fire Element: Burning Cross." Spyro blew out fire that took the shape of a giant burning X.
"So you also possess those eyes." He said, examining the dragon's eyes. "Sorry that won't work against me." Solaris said, stopping the fire cross from advancing towards him.
"He can manipulate fire just like you?" Spyro said, asking Rai.
"I guess I forgot to mention that."
"Here I'll send this attack back at you with my type of flame." Solaris said, changing the attack's attributes to resemble his own. He whipped his tail forward, sending the blue fire cross towards Spyro and Rai.
Rai dodged to the right, crashing into a pile of bones. Spyro jumped towards the left the attack managed to make contact with his left hind leg. Spyro let out a grunt from the pain that he received from the attack. He looked at his hind leg, and saw that it had burned all the way through. His scales had been mostly burned away. He looked over towards Rai, and saw that his injury matched up with that of Rai's.
"When I first arrived here Rai had less severe burns. After he was enveloped by the blue flames he came out looking like that. By the way that Rai spoke about the flames it seems that they have been increasing in heat and intensity." Spyro said, talking silently to himself. "Could that mean that as time passes by the more intense and hotter his flames get."
"Are you still alive?" Solaris asked, growing impatient.
Spyro got up on his three healthy legs. That last attack had immobilized his left hind leg. If he is able to increase his base flame heat as time goes on then I have to stop him as soon as I can. I'm sure that he is still able to increase the heat of his flames by other means. Just like any fire dragon can increase it by putting more fire energy into an attack, I am sure that he is able to do that as well. "All right then it looks like I am going to have to use that attack." He said, concentrating on the field around him. A large blue dome released from around Spyro it covered most of the area around them. "Dragon Time."
Spyro looked around, and saw that everything was in slow motion. Even though he had his divine eyes he could tell that things were physically slowed down, and that he was not just seeing them move slower. He dug his claws into the ground, and began moving the rocky ground around. He began separating the field in front of him into squares, and stretching them out of the ground. In a squared form the landscape moved towards the direction that Spyro was commanding them, and that was towards his father.
"Earth Element: Ground Collision." He said, manipulating several squared rock columns to move towards Solaris. The ground on the right and left side of Solaris had lifted up revealing that they had been transformed into square earth columns. Spyro slid his front paws towards each other until they hit each other. The two square columns mimicked this, moving towards each other quickly. The two square columns, coming out of the ground, were going to pulverize Solaris. The two came into contact with each other, breaking from the force of colliding against each other.
"Not bad," Solaris said, flying above the collision.
Spyro saw that Solaris was flying normally as if dragon time was not even active.
"That earth attack is very advanced I see that you are in the master class. You were also able to use dragon time before that. I bet that you are surprised that I am able to move, and talk normally. Dragon time slows the opponent down, and it did just that."
"Then how did you avoid that attack."
"My speed alone helped me avoid that attack, but I needed something else to see were your attack was going to come from. I'm sure by now you have noticed that since you arrived my eyes have been highlighted dark purple. Well that is because I also possess the divinity eyes."
"I knew it." Rai said, listening to the two from the ground. "That is how he was able to trap us in that illusion, but it doesn't explain why they were colored different at first glimpse."
"Now it is my turn to go on the offensive." He said, flying towards Spyro. Even though Spyro had dragon time activated, Solaris was still able to punch the dragon on his snout. Spyro was sent flying downward towards the ground, crashing into it.
"If it weren't for these eyes I would have missed that completely," Rai said. "Even with dragon time active he still moved at a speed in which Spyro could not dodge his punch. It looks like dragon time is deactivating." He said, noticing that the blue field that they were incased was disappearing. He flew over towards where Spyro had landed.
"Even with dragon time and divinity eyes activated, I couldn't dodge that punch." He said, standing back up. He felt something liquid on his face. The dragon brought up a paw to his snout. He brushed his paw against his snout, and saw that the liquid was blood. He was bleeding from his nose.
"I hope that you now have an idea of just how powerful he is. I believe that if we…ahhhh." Rai screamed out in pain again as the blue flame engulfed his body. Spyro looked at him, and saw that the fire had begun to burn his muscles. It was only a matter of time before it began burning his internal organs.
"Rai, you need to take it easy. That fire is slowly killing you." Spyro said.
"Shut up, don't you think I know that?" He said, staring at him furiously.
"Well it looks like it is time for me to end this." He said, closing his eyes. "I will finish you off with this, Divine Eyes Ruin, Unforgiven Mode." He opened his eyes, revealing that they were now highlighted a bright orange color while his red iris had darkened.
"There is another form?" They both said in unison.
"Yes, judging by your eyes the two of you still have to go through one more stage before reaching this one. This stage is the final form that you can obtain. Now let me show you two the powers that this ability grants me." He said, closing both his eyes.
"Spyro don't look him in the eyes!" Rai said.
"Who said that I needed eye contact for this attack, Divine Eyes Ruin, Unforgiven Mode: Banned." Solaris said, opening his left eye. "The elements that the two of you have used during this battle are as follows: earth, fire, lightning and ice. As long as this technique is activated you will not be able to use those elements." He said, smiling at them.
"We will see about that." Rai said, pointing his paw towards Solaris. "Fire Element: Fire Ball." Nothing came out of his paw. "What did you do?"
"With my normal divine eyes I saw you use different elements, and this ability bans you from using those elements." Solaris stated.
"Alright then take this." He said, lifting up his claws towards the sky. "Shadow Element: Hidden Shadow Point Strike." The countless shadows from the blue fire shifted into sharp points. They rose from the ground and moved towards Solaris.
"Ban shadow element," Solaris said. The shadows that were about to pierce the dragon disappeared, and returned back to their normal shape among the fire. "Did I forget to mention that I can also add to the ban list?"
"Then we can only fight him without using our elements, but in order to defeat someone like him we need our elements." Spyro said.
"Good bye my sons," he said, placing his paw in front of them.
A large dragon landed behind Solaris, interrupting his task.
"Took you long enough, I was beginning to wonder if you were going to show up or not. Spyro dying would be against the plan, wouldn't it? It has been such a long time," Solaris said, refusing to turn around to acknowledge the dragon. "Has it not teacher, or do you prefer Chronicler Ignitus."
