Chapter Twenty One: Losing You
Yes, I agree about the last one being a good cliff hanger for a good second story but I want to keep on with this one and sorry about spelling errors in the last chapter, I hate my computer and tiredness. Trying to finish it because Spyro has taken over my brain 0.0
"You two are Crazy!" Storm spat. Cynder didn't pay any attention to the hysterical dragoness as she checked to make sure Blizzard was unconscious.
"You could try gratitude once in a while." Cynder said as she removed herself from blizzards chest and nodding to Spyro to indicate the venom had done its job.
"Gratitude!? You just killed my mate!" Storm screamed. Trying desperately to wriggle out of Solaris's grip so she could tear Cynder apart.
"He's not dead you stupid idiot. I just knocked him out for the next few hours." Cynder said calmly although slightly irritated. Storm stopped struggling and stared at Cyder with hatred in her eyes.
"Look, we couldn't risk him hurting anyone so… wait, where's Fury?" Spyro said as he realized the large black dragon was missing.
"If you're talking about that scary looking black dragon, we didn't see him when we came in." Scorcher said as he took a step away from the furious dragoness.
"So then. Where is he?" Spyro asked no one in particular.
"Hey, what's all the yelling?" Fury asked, yawning.
"Who the hell are you?" Solaris asked the stretching green dragon.
"I think Cynder might know." Fury replied. As he spoke all of the dragons instantly knew that the voice belonged to Fury. But Cynder knew exactly who it was even before he spoke. The memory of Fury growling and throwing rocks at her briefly flashed through her mind.
"I thought you were, taller. And black." Solaris said, loosening his grip on Storm. Fury smiled.
"It seems as I must once again thank you guys for ending that hell. Feels good to be back in my own body." Fury said as he flexed one of his paws.
"I don't have time for this. Scorcher, I need some help." Cynder said as she placed her head under Blizzards neck. While Spyro Crouched down, Cybder and Scorcher lifted Blizzard's unconscious body onto the purple dragons back, avoiding the spikes running along his spine. Spyro groaned from the weight.
"Ugh, Blizzard's a lot heavier than he looks." Spyro said as he pushed himself to his feet.
"Where are you taking him?" Storm asked after she managed to calm down.
"Basement, I have been working with Diggs on something that will slow down the change." Cynder said. Storm shrugged of Solaris before walking over to Blizzard. Putting a paw on the blue dragon's head, Storn the turned to face Spyro.
"I'm coming with you, and I don't care what you say." Storm said.
"I should probably come too." Fury added ad he stepped of off his bed.
"What use are you to him now? Can you even use your shadow powers anymore?" Cynder asked. To answer the dragoness's question, Fury held up one of his paws as dark shapes began to dance around his ivory claws.
"Good enough for you?" Fury asked.
"Fine, but I don't want either of you causing trouble." Cynder said.
"Can we please get a move on?" Spyro whined as he shifted slightly.
"You saved the world from an evil dragon and you're winging about a little weight?" Cynder asked. Spyro rolled his eyes as he turned around and walked out the door, not waiting for the others.
"What about us?" Solaris asked.
"Maybe you could go looking for Static, Blizzard's friend." Cynder suggested, Following Spyro and the others.
"Have you met him?" Solaris asked Scorcher. The smaller red dragon shook his head.
"Okay then." Solar was about to leave with Scorcher when he noticed that there were long scratch marks on Blizzard's bed.
Static had already been up for a while In the room that he was sharing with a few other dragons.
"How does this work again?" Asked a shadow dragon who was holding up static's IPod.
"Okay, you press here then just scroll through here and press the song you want to listen to." Static explained for the third time. Static watched ass the black dragon tapped away at his IPod.
The dragons smiled as sound once again began to emanate from the foreign object. However their excitement quickly disappeared as the IPod grew quiet and went black.
"Damn, out of power." Static said sadly, shaking the device.
"Then jus recharge it." The black dragon said.
"How? I don't have the charger for it and I don't see any power sockets around. The Black dragon gave him a confused look.
"What are you talking about? You are an electrical dragon aren't you? Just recharge it yourself." He said.
"Oh, right. I forgot about that." Static admitted before taking the back off of the IPod and putting a claw on the battery.
'Okay, how do I do this again?' Static thought as he tried to remember back to how Volteer used his power in the same way to revive his friend.
'I really need to check on Thom, Blizzard soon.' He thought as he managed to get his power flowing. Static saw a few sparks appear over the battery before the music restarted.
"Ah, there we go." Static said, putting the case back on. Two of the dragons that were in the room were twins, both earth dragons and still fairly young. They started to grin giggling madly as they slammed their small tails on the floor with the beat. The sight of the young dragons made the others laugh.
"I need to get one of these." Said the Shadow dragon wiping a tear from his eye he had acquired from laughing too hard. Hearing a knock at the door, Static turned the music down slightly and went to open the door to see the earth dragoness from yesterday. In the way of color, the dragoness almost completely resembled Fury but her body was more streamline, her eyes softer and muzzle narrower.
"Oh, hey." Static said. The dragoness out a paw on the back of her head.
"Is it alright if I come in?" She asked.
"Sure, I don't see why not." Static replied. Entering the room, the dragoness greeted the other dragons who were still watching the young earth dragons.
"I didn't catch your name last time we met." Static said. The dragoness blushed, not knowing why.
"Hope." The dragoness said shyly. Static smiled.
"Why are you called that?" Static asked.
"Because my father said I gave him hope when my mother passed away."
"I'm Static." Static said. The dragons continued to laugh as the twins had started to try and dance but had collided with each other and were now wrestling on the floor.
"Hey, careful!" Static shouted as one of the dragons swept the IPod away from the wrestling with his tail.
Hope smiled as Static tried to break up the two dragons that then jumped on him instead. By now the other dragons he was sharing the room with were laughing so hard they were having trouble breathing. Their fun stopped as all the dragons heard what sounded to be a fight break out somewhere in the temple and then shouting.
When Blizzard awoke, his vision was still a little blurry and he could feel something wrapped around each of his legs. He had been lying on his stomach while he was unconscious and didn't have any idea how he ended up where he was. As his vision cleared, he could see Cynder at the other end of the dark room with a paw on a small clear gem. Her eyes were shut tightly as shadows and other dark shapes poured into the clear gem.
"Awake now are we?" Diggs asked as he hammered away at a small metal disk. Pulling himself off the floor, Blizzard looked down to see his four feet held to the floor with large chains.
"What's going on?" Blizzard asked.
"Their only there for a precaution, or so they tell me." Storm replied, appearing out of the corner and walking over to Blizzard.
"Wait." Cynder called out as she took her paw off the gem. Putting the gem in her mouth, Cynder walked over to Diggs and handed him the still clear gem. Examining the gem and disk, Diggs hammered away at the dick a few more times before placing the gem in the middle.
"That should do it." Diggs said as he held up the disk. Blizzard could now get good look at the circular piece of metal. It was about the size of his paw and was fairly thin and curved.
"What is that?" Blizzard asked, getting nervous.
"I will tell you if it works." Diggs said as he walked towards the blue dragon. Blizzard tried to back away but the chains didn't allow him to go far.
"Calm down. It won't hurt." Storm said, wanting nothing more than to run to his side. Blizzard turned his head away from the mole and shut his eyes, but all he felt was the mole clipping the disk to his chest, just covering the scar on his scales. Blizzard felt a wave of relief as the gem glowed dully and the tendrils of darkness that had almost reached his wings began to dissipate and retract towards the gem. The gem then returned to its normal state as the last black scale turned blue.
"I don't believe it. Its working, it's actually working." Fury said astonished.
"Blizzard!" Storm cried out in joy as she ran towards her mate and put a paw around his neck, pressing her muzzle against his.
"I thought I had lost you again." Storm said, on the verge of tears.
"I think you have." Blizzard said sadly. Storm didn't let go of Blizzard as Cynder and Fury removed the chains from around Blizzard's wrists.
"That gem on your chest should slow down the spread until we can find a more permanent solution." Said Diggs
Removing her head from Blizzard's neck, Storm stared into his sad blue eyes.
"I don't want to lose you." Storm said. Blizzard pressed his maw to hers before pulling away from the dragoness.
"How long will this thing last?" Blizzard asked Cynder.
"Maybe a week, at the most." Cynder replied. Blizzard looked around the dark room and noticed that there were a few dragons missing from their group.
"Where are Spyro and the others?" Blizzard asked.
"We heard a commotion and then a large bang coming from upstairs so they went to investigate." Cynder said as took a step back. Blizzard pressed his paw up against the disk and gave it a small tug.
"Careful with that." Fury warned.
"If that breaks, you're pretty much screwed." Blizzard watched the mole as he packed up his tools and put them under a bench. The four dragons then heard a loud bang as the door flew open and Spyro ran in with a large pack on his back.
"Everybody! In here! Terrador block off the door when everybody is through. The dragons watched on in shock as a small number of others including, Solaris, Scorcher and Static running through the open door, either shooting fire ball or electrical bolts out the door. Terrador then shut the door and raised a wall of stone in front of the door.
"Zobek." Blizzard whispered angrily. Spryo nodded his head as he slowly backed away from the door. Tarrador stood his ground as the wall of stone started to shake.
"You cannot hide forever!" Zobek shouted as he smashed at the stone wall with his tail.
"Diggs, are there any tunnels in here?" Spyro asked the mole, trying to keep calm. The mole nodded his head and ran over to a dusty wall. Searching the wall, Diggs pulled on a dusty looking lever to reveal a small passageway just big enough for the largest of the teenage dragons.
"Everyone, in the tunnel!" Spyro shouted. All of the dragons ran into the tunnel without hesitation and followed Diggs. Before stepping in himself, Spyro turned back towards Terrador.
"What are you planning on doing? Spyro asked the earth guardian.
"Just get out of here. The temple is lost." Terrador replied without taking his eyes of the shaking stone wall. Spyro nodded once before leaping into the tunnel and following the others.
Terrador turned to watch the purple dragon disappear before sealing up the tunnel entrance and breaking off the lever. Then turning back to the door, Terrador dug his claws into the floor and got ready for the black dragon.
