A/N: I don't own any Dream Street or Spyro characters, I only own my characters but Viperwatcher owns Zayril.
Shade excused herself from the room and sat out by the balcony.
Phobius followed Shade worried.
"Phobius I need to be alone for a bit" Shade said solemnly.
"Ok" Phobius said and returned inside.
Shade sighed thinking about her father.
"If anyone found out who Phobius and I are related to, they'd hunt us down and tare us apart" she thought to herself.
She sighed once more.
"I only hope I made the right choice by coming here" she muttered.
A few minutes later she returned and saw the others had made progress.
"Where's Zayril, Terracotta, Firedrake and Cyclone?" she asked.
"They went on ahead" Aurora replied.
Shade nodded.
Ivy nuzzled Rodney.
"Please be careful Rodney" she said.
"I will, I won't let him win" Rodney said.
Daisy smiled.
"So who's staying here?" Shade asked.
"Ivy, Teck, Iceica and Ice Cool" Buddy replied.
Shade looked over Half Pint.
"I'm coming with you, but I rely more on my spirit powers" he explained.
"Lets go" Shade said.
"Are you sure everything's ok Shade?" Azid asked.
"You wouldn't understand, lets leave it at that" Shade replied.
Azid and Aurora looked at Phobius worried.
"She's right" he said and followed Shade off.
"What do ya suppose that was about?" Lilly asked.
"I don't know" Buddy replied.
"Hold on, what about her?" Jack asked pointing at Harmony.
"We'll keep an eye on her" Lance said.
Rain nodded.
"Lets go" Shade said once more.
Phobius walked next to Shade worried.
"You thinking about dad again?" he whispered.
Shade nodded.
Cruentus laid on the floor still in agony.
Turmac sighed.
"Dare I ask how that happened?" he asked.
Blood Tie explained what had happened.
Elijah growled.
"Shade" he said.
"Who?" Blood Tie asked.
"Malefor's daughter" Elijah replied.
"She's a guardian!" Turmac exclaimed in shock.
"It appears so" Elijah nodded.
Turmac thought for a few moments.
"If we can convince her to come on our side then we have a strong chance of victory" he muttered.
Blood Tie looked doubtful.
"What about me?" Cruentus asked in pain.
Turmac placed a red crystal next to Cruentus to heal his wounds.
Inside her mind Phoenix was still fighting for control.
"Oh my children, please be safe and let the Great White Wolf's spirit guide you well" she whispered.
