XLV-Tears of Fire
Spyro could finally see something other than sky they had cleared through the smoke ash and clouds that dominated the sky below soon they saw Malefor's lair high above a set of floating islands.
"It's Beautiful up here." Cynder stated in awe Solria nodded in agreement she had gone back to being numb again Koryu just grunted a yup.
"The Tower it must lead to Malefor's lair." Spyro stated,
"Thanks for ruining the moment." Cynder sighed as they looked around Raiciel looked over at Solria who seemed to be out of it almost like her soul wasn't with her body.
"Hey you okay?" Raiciel asked she looked at him.
"Hmm oh yeah as okay I'll ever be right now" She replied the last part in a sad tone Raiciel nodded she and Spyro took Ignitus's death really hard.
"Heres a couple Torches!" Koryu stated,
"I've got em." Solria replied however as she moved towards them several Grumlins appeared,
"Look likes trouble." Raiciel stated he quickly sent a couple over the edge with his electric stream while Spyro used his Earth Mace to sent a few flying back where they were doused with Cynder's Venom attack, Koryu finished them with an Ice stream then shattered them,
Solria used a Fire Tornado to knock several monsters back and burn them Koryu used his snow storm and froze several foes while others fell off the edge he then used ice tail to knock a soldier grumlin back Spyro and Cynder unleashed a fire breath Shadow Fire combo which made a small explosion killing the rest of the monsters.
"Okay now let's try this again." Solria replied as she lit the torches the gates didn't open but two of the several Dragon heads above them in a row were now breathing fire.
"There must be more torches come on let's look around." Spyro replied, they took off the island heading towards the right they suddenly heard the voices that came with a dark crystal a well-aimed Rocket Shot not only destroyed it but lit the crystal.
"That's that." Solria piped, "Let's keep moving." She replied seriously,
"I think there's one behind the biggest island." Raiciel called having seen something like a torch from the distance they flew over and sure enough there it was Spyro flew over and lit it up he then noticed something,
"Down here!" he called to the others who followed on top of a fragment of the wall was yet another torch he set it on fire then saw something that tore his heart.
"Spyro what's wrong?" Cynder asked they all gathered around Solria gasped off in the distance where Silver Town once stood was now burnt to a crisp and she realized from where Spyro and Sparx lived it wasn't that far from the town just a few miles in the other direction they met up in the middle not far from the temple.
"Spryo…." She muttered,
"Maybe they got away right? When we get back we'll have to ask Terrador!" Raiciel assured "We can't give up now." He stated trying to keep them from stopping then and there.
"You're right." Spyro replied,
They soon found the next one also on a stone wall fragment on the lower left everyone could see bits and pieces of the Temple around them as they got the six on a stone wall Fragment in the middle of where they were then the seventh not too far away,
"So where's that eighth one?" Solria asked,
"We'll find it!" Cynder stated,
"This amazing you can really see everything from up here." Spyro muttered in awe.
"Now you notice." Cynder thought, she then saw the eighth and final torch was lowest of them all down below and covered in dark crystals a quick whack from her tail blade cleared that up then with the final torch activated the doors activated everyone felt a chill their stomachs dropped as they flew towards the door.
"This is it." Spyro replied, quietly they walked forward, however as they entered the room a Wyvern Grumlin swooped over them it had a blue mask on,
"A Grumlin with some kind of mask." Spyro stated,
"I know that mask we were making them for the apes Koryu Spyro hit it with ice hard and fast!" Cynder shouted,
Upon her words they quickly struck it hard with a couple of Cryo bombs stunning it then Spyro flew up and launched an ice stream that destroyed the mask he then bit hard into it drawing a greenish black liquid that may have been it's blood before smashing it hard into the wall killing it.
"Bleh." Spyro muttered spitting out the taste they then entered the room memories flooded their heads Spyro remembered fighting the Apes in this hall with Solria and Koryu the pool of visions had been smashed quietly they activated the mechanism that allowed them to enter the next room.
"Uh oh." They muttered together seeing a good twenty grumlins awaiting them with Red looming above them.
"ATTAAACK!" Red screamed the grumlins rushed forward there were several mechanisms around but Spyro and the others didn't care what they were or what they did until they learned quickly and painfully that they attracted the chain around Cynder and Spyro's necks and held them in place.
"We have to destroy those things!" Solria stated blasting the one that had caught the two, "Whenever we see them!"
"Right!" the others announced together as they began to use their elements against the other grumlins several were sent flying back due to Spyro's armored earth bolder then were paralyzed and blinded by Cynder's Banshee scream and Blinding hiss.
Koryu and Solria hit several foes into the walls with Crystal rushes and Comet Dashes while Raiciel soaked several slowing them down they were then electrocuted by and electric sphere.
Cynder did a Cyclone attack and sent several into the air Raiciel used a bubble bomb to blow several into Spyro's range where he hit them with electricity stream.
"That's it!" Solria stated as he brother defeated the last of them however another wave appeared, "Grrr."
"If you whelping's think I'm letting you through you've got another thing coming!" Red snarled,
"We don't have time for this!" Raiciel growled as he blasted one with an electro orb sending a few flying he then saw that the gem in Red's armor was glowing brightly had it been doing that the whole time, "I bet that if I take that out his mooks loose power!"
He flew up quickly catching Red off guard he slammed into the amor with a good horn charge cracking it Red growled retaliating by intercepting another strike from Raiciel and slamming him into the ground.
"RAICIEL!" Solria shouted,
"NO Just concentrate on the Grumlins I'm fine!" Raiciel shouted zapping Red in the face before hitting him with his tail blade he then summoned a lightning storm to follow Red around and electrocute him, "You don't know how long I've wanted to do that!" Raiciel snarled as he rammed into Red sending him falling back as Spyro defeated the last of the second wave a large orange gorilla Grumlin appeared and sent them into the wall
They got back up and hit him with a good force of elements knocking it back a little Solria's fire breath managed to set it on fire and Koryu's Cryo bombs hit it's face blinding it,
Spyro hit it with a powerful Armored earth bolder sending it into the wall Cynder jumped up on it and bit it several times up the arm to ensure her Toxic Fang's maximum effect,
"Hurry while it's down!" Koryu shouted as he and the group backed up to unleash their furies as the same time Raiciel charged up a water fury which exploded in a huge tital wave that knocked Red back and cooled most of his armor Raiciel then rushed forward ramming the jewel then unleashing an electro orb at close range Red roared in pain and anger as his armor was blown clean off the Gorilla Golem roared in pain as Shadow Fire Ice and Earth furies hit it hard killing it, Red charged at Raiciel knocking him back to the ground level as he jumped down wanting vengeance.
"Look out!" Solria shouted as they dodged a blow from Red's comet Dash Spyro hit him hard with a comet Dash of his own he was temporarily blinded by Cynder's Venom attack he shook it off however and sent the two into a wall.
Solria and Koryu hit him hard with several Polar bombs and Fire balls Raiciel then got him with another bubble bomb he was then struck from below with Cynder's Shadow Cloak,
"Insolent little pests!" Red snarled as he was hit with Spyro's Armored earth bolder he roared and sent out a barrage of fire bombs that hit them all he growled and rushed for his fallen armor and pulled out the jewel which was still intact. "Unfortunately for you I still have this!" he stated viciously as he put it back on and rushed forward hitting them hard with a powerful spell.
"He's got his magic back!" Spyro stated,
"But thanks to Raiciel he's no longer invulnerable we can take him!" Cynder stated as they rushed forward. Solria and Cynder blocked a spell with their fire and shadow fire breaths while Koryu Raiciel and Spyro hit him with an earth shot Cryo breath and Cyclone breath then Raiciel hit him with a wave strike which Spyro followed up with an electro orb,
Red in retaliation sent them flying back into a nearby wall Solria however jumped on his back and bit down hard into his neck however he managed to grab her and threw her off into the ground he was about to crush her with his paws but Koryu rushed forward and grabbed her as they came down,
"Leave my sister alone!" Koryu snarled as he unleashed a powerful snow storm attack which Red growled in pain from he backed away into a trap by Spyro who did an armored earth bolder feeling his body bruised he stood unleashing a fire fury that sent them all back however they stood.
"Not giving up are we how sad you should know that your efforts are in vain I just have to keep you all here till the Destroyer arrives then nothing will stop us!" Red snarled.
"You really think Red's going to share the world with you?!" Cynder snapped,
"You're nothing but a tool!" Koryu added,
"And your all nothing but pawns but you don't see me pointing that out!" Red snarled as he rushed forward and rammed into Cynder and Koryu getting Spyro with them Solria hit him with a powerful fire tornado which stunned him long enough for Raiciel to hit him with a scald breath once that was done Red snarled and bit Raiciel throwing him into a wall Solria retaliated with a rocket bomb to his face.
"He's weakening!" Raiciel shouted indeed Red seemed to have used up all his mana using spells and his element as well as his energy.
"Let's hit him hard!" Cynder stated as they all charged up furies Cynder did a Poison Fury while Solria and Koryu performed a fusion fury and Spyro an earth fury hitting him hard and sending him crashing into a nearby wall which revealed a large wind tunnel headed towards Malefor's lair.
"You stupid brats it doesn't matter now I still win in the end I still finally rid the world of that scale sack of a dragon Ignitus!" Red snarled.
"DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT HIM LIKE THAT!" Spyro roared as the other glared hatefully,
Red laughed, "Why I'm certainly not taking orders from a sixteen year old Dragon! I can't tell you how good it felt to crush Ignitus's soul taking from him what should've been mine all those years ago crushing all those stupid eggs killing any stupid fool that tried to stand in our way corrupting those two whiny brats! Even putting up with Gaul was all worth it to watch that waste of space get broken over and over and-" BAM a large fire ball hit him square in the jaw,
With an absolute roar Solria rushed forward and slammed into him blasting him with all the fire power she could muster scratching and clawing him she even managed to slam him into the ground Red tried to put some space between them but it didn't work Solria was always on top of him.
"Solria!" Koryu shouted,
"Solria!" Raiciel shouted as all the Dragons raced off after them Solria screaming kept ramming Red into the sides of the islands biting and clawing him she had even gotten close to his throat a couple of times it he whacked her away with his tail just when it seemed like he got away however his gem glew a sickly green,
Solria finally found him and tried to attack him however Koryu seeing the gem tried to stop her managed to grab her, "Solria stop!" he begged however Solria just whacked him with her tail knocking him through the air Raiciel however tackled her and forced her down,
"Koryu help me!" Raiciel shouted as Solria struggled Koryu came down and helped pin her.
"Calm down Solria it's okay!" Koryu tried to assure, her but she roared breathing fire anyway she could,
"What-…." Red forced out finding it very difficult to breath all of a sudden Cynder and Spyro watched as the now green gem left green vein like markings on Red, "No!...I've….bee-n…..your…..faithful servant…..you…..YOU CAAAAAANNNN'T!" Red screeched as he began to disintegrate Solria broke free but Raiciel managed to grab her again,
"SOLRIA CALM DOWN SOLRIA!" Raiciel shouted as he managed to pin her on her back screaming in her face Koryu was recovering from the next blow he took he just watched he had always been the one to calm Solria down but not this time.
"GAUUAUAHAHAHH!" Red screamed as he turned to dust the gem turned a black opaque color as it plummeted towards the ground Solria slowly got back up she slumped down and began to cry Raiciel nuzzled her. "It's okay Solria….we miss him too."
"Spyro…Cynder go on ahead you don't have time to wait." Koryu stated looking a little troubled about something,
"Are you sure?" Spyro asked sadly wanting to say something to Solria but Koryu nodded,
"We'll catch up don't worry Solria isn't going to let this stop her from helping you." he assured a little more hopeful they nodded and took off into the air tunnel back in the main island Koryu watched as Solria cried for her foster parents who suffered so much because of her existence, for the thousands of young innocent young lives ended before they began for the mother she never knew for the father that died in an inferno to atone for a sin that his so called best friend actually committed Ignitus blamed himself believing nothing he ever did made up for the temple raid for the loss of his mate when in Solria's heart she believed that wasn't the truth at all.
