Chapter Thirty Six:

Trake Blade swung over the young Draman head just after he crouched low to the ground, bits of hair flying from the tip of his hair as the green eye teen rolled under the metal beast legs and brought his hands out in front of him sending a torrents of blue flames on the underbelly. Only a black marking where he hit the beast was seen as a tail wrapped around his waist and threw him high in the air spinning like a sideway top. When he stop spinning he saw the tip of the large sword just glaze his face as he spanned in the air to get away from a nasty slash; but was hit by the flat edge of the other blade sending him skipping off the ground. Landing on his feet he stopped his movement by bringing on hand down and crouched with one foot behind, the other to the side as he held the pose when stopped. Sweat bead flew from his face to his feet or the ground as he looked up. It was true he was stronger because of the crystal, but that didn't mean it gave him unlimited energy like Trake seemed to have. Running again toward the robot he cried sliding under the legs and then attacked the tail with his newly blue flames, a small dent was seen from the tail, but other then that; nothing. The tail flung and slapped Brandon in the chest sending him toward the wall as he groaned, so far this was not looking good for the young Draman.

Spyro, Saira, and Sparx shot down toward the hallway, finding staircases not to far down and running down. It would've been easier just to fly down, but they didn't want to risk hurting themselves, so they took the stairs; Saira as quiet the whole time, her face the same somewhat blank look. Spyro would check her from time to time, but he always found that same blankness looking back at him. It worried him seeing a fellow dragon and friend in this sort of sate, and he only prayed at if they found Brandon; she would be alright.

"Guys!" Sparx flew back from looking on ahead. "You've got to see this, come on!" he zipped off again as the two humanoid dragons turned to each other again, and ran off after him. They came in a small room with large windows on each wall, other then that it was plain. Outside the front window they could see Trake in his huge robotic body, fighting with Brandon.

"Brandon!" screamed Saira slamming her paws on the window which only shuddered from her force of attack. The Draman didn't move or flinched when he heard his name; the room was too high and was also soundproof. All they could do now was watch.

"Too bad Cynder wasn't here," Sparx called out. "Of she was, she could just use her shadow skill and pop in there to get Brandon and boom!" he waved his arms around. "Pop back out right?" Spyro nodded with his brother as Saira just watched as the fight went on, her claws on the window as if she could just go right though and help him herself.

Again Brandon was flung to the ground as he skipped like a rock on water until he stopped on his back. He groaned in pain as he started to stand back up back was met with a metal foot to the chest sending him up in the air as he span. His eyes glazed over to the window room as he saw Saira and Spyro looking at him, he saw Saira fear and when she moved her lips as if screaming, he didn't hear anything. His fist clutched as he flipped frontward and brought both of his hands together as they glowed blue, his body shuddered as the energy he was gathering formed in his hands. His eyes closed as he felt something else, another force close to him.

"You have the power Brandon," the force spoke. "You always have, let it out and allow Trake to rest in peace." Brandon eyes opened as they glowed blue, he brought his arms over his head as a large ball of fire was seen, he roared as he then brought it in front of him blasting the ball of fire at Trake engulfing him at once. The force of the attack sent Brandon though the window room and out the door skidding down the hallway. Saira ran down with Sparx and Spyro close behind, he groaned as he slowly sat up on his rear looking ahead, then slammed back to the ground as the green dragoness tackled back to the ground.

"Brandon!" she cried holding on to him tightly as he gagged and chocked. "I thought you would've have been killed!"

"Lungs…crushing…ribs…breaking!" Saira let him go as he let out a breath of air holding on to his chest. "Saira you should know by now," answered Brandon getting his breath back. "I'm not that easy to kill!" he smirked screeching his nose as Saira hugged him again, but not like the first time.

"I hate to be the one to break this up but…" Sparx flew in front of them. "I really like to get out of here!"

"Sparx is right," Brandon agreeded. "For once,"

"Hey!"

"We do need to get out of here!"

Nathan with Steele and Zelda waited by the portal, Sam mad it some time ago and started too worked over the portal as fast as she could; Nathan told the group that Malefor got away from him while he was in his golden form. Ether he was still somewhere in the building or somehow made it back to their own world they didn't know. Sam still worked as hard as she could, she almost had it working until It started to buzz and clank and she cheered to herself.

"It's working!" she cried. "I can't believe that really worked…anyhow, this should take you back home you guys, Zelda we better go!" the yellow hair Draman looked from the blue portal that just opened as Brandon, Spyro, and Saira ran in. "Zelda come on!"

"Sam," she answered. "Do me a favour will you?" Sam looked over to her friend as Zelda smiled. "Tell my mother that I love her, and you take care of her." Sam was piffled.

"Zelda…are you…" she nodded. "These guys need all the help they can get I know this now, and I know my mother would want this for me, so promise me you'll take good care of her; please?" Sam sighed and looked down, then back up nodding.

"You know I will Zelda," she brought her hand up. "Even though we may not be of the same blood…" Zelda took her hand and held it in her own tightly.

"We will always be sisters!" the two hugged as the door behind them began to bang as shouts were heard. "Go Sam, we'll be fine; go!" the human nodded and turned and ran out down the hallway Brandon and the other dragons came from, Nathan gave one look as she left as if thinking of going with her, but shook his head.

"Let go back home guys," and with that, they all jumped in as the portal closed around them.
