Chapter 25: Luna, the Song Goddess
DK Mark traveled through the Black Forest, careful not to awake any unnecessary predators, when he decided to make camp for the night. He gathered some fire wood and placed some rocks around it; he turned to his dragon form and blew some fire on the wood. It sparked to life and the eyes following him disappeared.
'Good, at least this will help me for the night' he thought and went to find some food. He transformed to his wolf form and began using he improved sense of smell to find some food. He found a deer and waited in the shadows, when it lowered its head to eat the grass he jumped on to it and bit its neck.
The deer tried to get free but DK Mark bit harder, soon it went limp and Mark carried it to his camp. When he got there he began eating it raw, ripping off huge chunks of meat from the deer's carcass. After a while there where only bones left of the deer he'd eaten, DK Mark lay back on his stomach (still in his wolf form) and soon began to drift off into sleep.

DK Mark woke up to the sound of something near his camp site, he grabbed his blade and used the fire gem, it began glowing and he set off to the noise. As we followed the noise he saw the wild animals of the forest going to the same spot, as he followed them he bean hearing someone singing. His arm began glowing and pulsed with a strange force as he went closer to the singing. He soon found himself in a clearing and saw a dragoness, she had white scales and sang in a voice that made his heart beat fast. The light she gave off seemed to dim everything in the clearing. Her voice was soft as silk, fluid like water, and light as a feather, he soon forgot everything that transpired and listened.
The strangest thing happened though, he felt like the music was familiar, almost like he heard it before, like a lullaby. He soon remembered his song his grandmother would sing and realized it was the same thing. He soon transformed into his wolf form and howled the song, matching her singing to his howling, it was like a chorus of people singing it.
When it was done the dragoness looked at DK Mark and smiled, DK Mark walked up to her and stared at her. "Who are you?" he asked. "Luna, the one who lives in this forest." The dragoness said. She began to move her fingers over DK Mark's face and down his neck when she felt cold metal; she traced it and soon found his amulet. "Where did you get this?" she asked. "It belonged to my mother, before she gave it to me when I was a baby" DK Mark said.
"Your mother?" Luna asked. "Yes, the wife of the dragon King Sedro" DK Mark said. Luna gasped "You know the Dragon king and his wife?" Luna asked. "Yeah, because I'm their son" DK Mark told her and showed her his right arm. Luna looked at the arm then back to him. "It can't be…" she whispered. "What?" DK Mark asked. "The last time I saw you was when you and your brother where babies, and that was years ago, my you've grown so much" Luna said and hugged and kissed him.
DK Mark was really confused, how did she know about him? "Who exactly are you?" he asked. Luna let go of him and smiled again "Because I'm your mother's sister, which makes me your Aunt" Luna said. DK Mark raised his eyebrows in surprise "What?!" he exclaimed. "I'll explain back at my place over there" Luna told him and pointed to a large mountain. "Where?" DK Mark asked. "There" Luna pointed again. DK Mark used his dragon eyes to see better and saw a narrow opening on the side of the mountain. "Oh" he said.
"You're just like your father when I met him." Luna said. "I should contact Spyro and Dragon Lord Mark and see if Agor told them where I am" DK Mark said. "Your friends with DL Mark?!" Luna asked surprised. "Yeah, why?" DK Mark asked. "Because I know him for a long time, when I met him and his wife years ago." Luna told him. "Right, tell me more while we go to your place." DK Mark said. The two walked through the forest as Luna told him about how she met Sedro.
--
DK Mark listened to Luna as she told him about his father, apparently, during the war with the apes and dragons, the dragons summoned Sedro as an act of good will to the humans, At first Sedro didn't make any friends and was mocked for him being human, but he made friends with Ignitus and the others, including Malefor. He met Elaine and Luna while he was strolling around town and, he actually began to fall for her but they couldn't be together since it was against the law.
"When Bahamut was crowned dragon king and so was Malefor, the dragon and humans decided to crown a human dragon king as an act of peace between the races. Everyone thought it would be Tyreal, who at the time was Elaine's boyfriend, but they decided it to be Sedro instead. Everyone was surprised, including Sedro as he walked up to them, Soon Bahamut recognized him as his younger brother when he saw him and revealed that he was once human like Sedro, but was transported to the Realms by Ungh-Agor" Luna explained.
"When he was crowned everyone was furious, including Tyreal, they didn't want him to be a king and soon began to attack. But then DL Mark, Godith, and Ungh-Agor appeared and told them it was them who decided to give Sedro the title, soon when Agor told him he would be a dragon like them he actually transformed into one! He told him he could turn to a dragon and human whenever he wanted to. When he turned back to a human his right arm was a dragon's, Agor then told everyone that he is to be the first Human Dragon King and to respect him. Everyone did and bowed to them, calling them the "Three Kings" and Sedro began to go out with Elaine since they could now, and Agor allowed her to turn into a human also to be with Sedro." Luna told DK Mark.
"Anyway, a few years later when Sedro and Elaine where adults (he was a teenager at the time he was crowned) Malefor was banished by the council for his powers, he blamed Sedro since he was human and left, soon the old Guardians where banished since their training was to harsh for everyone and made Ignitus and the others the new guardians. Even Tyreal was banished because he and Sedro had an argument that escalated into a fight over Elaine. Soon afterward he felt bad for himself and what he did and wondered why he was chosen for this, but Elaine and I helped him."
"Soon they got married and Malefor returned for revenge, Sedro and Bahamut and DL Mark went and stopped him, sealing him off in Convexity for good. It was around that time he had helped Sparda beat Mundus and around that time you two where born." Luna said. "Yeah, he feared that Malefor and someone else more powerful might get us and sent me to the human world until it was time for me to return." DK Mark said.
"Yes, but you also know about your mother's death, she was buried at her favorite spot, a lake near the temple underneath a tree, I felt so bad that I left and settled in the black Forest" Luna said. "Oh man, that's horrible" DK Mark said. "Yeah, but soon I heard that a new dragon King came and helped kill Malefor. I thought that Sedro had returned, but I never expected that it was you who did it." Luna said.
They soon reached Luna's home and entered the narrow hole, it was dark inside it, lit only by a few torches that hung on the wall. There was a bed towards the end as well as a mirror. "Not exactly the best place but it's better than outside." Luna said. "So tell me about yourself" she said to DK Mark. He told her about his life from his time in the Human world, especially about the Massacre that occurred. "Oh my, I'm sorry about what happened" Luna said. "I know, but even I didn't know it was Revan who was with them" DK Mark said and continued. He told her about his arrival and everything that happened since, including his fight with his brother, and wrapped it up with what had occurred recently.
"So, you came here because Malefor's son took out a demon inside you and transported you here hoping no one will find you." Luna said. "Yeah that sums it up." DK Mark said. He remembered about the others and took out his comm. Crystal and contacted them. "Guys" he said. The image of DL Mark and the rest appeared. "Boss! Your okay!" Dl Mark said. He was shoved aside and Elaine and Yulie appeared. "Are you okay?" Elaine asked.
"Yeah I'm fine, I met someone who helped me. Where are you?" DK Mark asked. "We're near the Black Forest, how's everything?" Yulie asked. "Alright, oh by the way mom, you'll never guess who I found" DK Mark said and gave Luna the comm.. Crystal. "Sister?" Elaine asked. "Elaine how are you?" Luna asked. "I'm fine, Agor revived me so I could watch over my son" Elaine told her. "I know, your son told me, he's grown so much" Luna said.
"I know, he's not a baby anymore" Elaine said. "Hate to break u this reunion but your wasting my minutes" DL Mark said and took the crystal. "We're near the forest now, where are you?" he asked. "In a cave on the side of the mountain, can you see it?" DK Mark asked. "No, wait, is it the mountain with the narrow entrance at the top?" DL Mark asked. "Yep" DK Mark said. "Oh we're right underneath it" DL Mark said.
DK Mark looked up and ran outside, he could see DL Mark waving down below. "DUDE! YOU ALRIGHT?!" DL Mark yelled. "I SAID I WAS DIDN'T I?" DK Mark yelled back. "IS LUNA WITH YOU?" Elaine asked. Luna came out "YES, HOW ARE YOU SISTER?" Luna asked. "FINE, WE'LL BE RIGHT UP SHORTLY" Elaine said.
They began to come up the side of the mountain as Luna and DK Mark watched. Soon they reached them and Yulie hugged and kissed DK Mark. " I was so worried about you" she said. "It's okay, I'm alive aren't I?" DK Mark told her. Luna and Elaine where happy to see each other again and began talking for a while. "Why don't you come with us to the Temple?" Elaine asked her sister. "Sure, after all it's been a while since I left the forest" Luna said. She got her stuff and they soon flew to the Temple.
