Chapter 15:
The little girl walked around the meadow, picking little flowers until her hands were full. She then sits down in the meadow, and started tying the flowers together. Spyro sat down beside her, watching.
"And dat is how you make a flower crown." Fayra smiled as she set it on Spyros head. Admittedly it was a little too big for him and it ended up covering his eyes.
"That's pretty cool!" He says using a pawn to lift the flower crown off his eyes. Fayra just laughs.
"So whadda do for fun around here?" She asked. Spyro shrugged.
"Mmm a few things. I mean when I'm not beating up baddies I'm usually skateboarding or going for a swim or just relaxing in the sun."
"Those sound fun. I usually like to go cave exploring with my friends!" Fayra said with an innocent grin. "Oh! And rock skipping! My brothers and I love seeing who can skip a rock the farthest. Have your ever tried it before?" Spyro shook his head.
"Well then let's try it!" Fayra said getting to her feet.
It was a short walk to the ocean. The air was warm and everything was peaceful. The sand under Fayra's feet felt soft and warm and comforting. Once at the water's edge the sand turned to mud, sticking to their feet. Fayra spots a small thin rock and picks it up.
"See, what you wanna do, is throw it so that the rock is flat. That way it'll stay on top of the water." She said flicking her wrist. The rock made it about three skips before sinking into the water. "Try it!"
Spyro looks around and spots another small flat rock hiding in the sand. He walks over to the sat and rest his tail next to, and with a flick of his tail he sent it flying. It skipped five times before sinking into the water.
"Not bad for a first try." Spyro said cockily and he polished his claws.
Fayra laughed and picked up another rock. As she took a step forward to throw it, she slipped in the mud. She let out a little yelp and held her hands out to brace herself.
She didn't fall, but when she looked up she noticed that the rock was hanging in mid air.
She was making the rock float.
She quickly brought her hands to her chest, and the rock fell into the shallow water. Spyro just stared at her.
"Wow. You didn't tell me you could do that." He said.
"I didn't know I could." She said shyly. "I-is that a good thing, a bad thing? What..?" She looked wide eyed at the small dragon.
"I-i'm sure it's nothing to be worried about!" He said in an attempt to calm the girl down. "Why don't we go ask Nestor. He'll know!"
