Inside the lair, many apes are seen guarding the pathways. However, unknown to them, Stealth and Sheila are already in, hiding on higher platforms of the place, thanks to the dragons' help.

"Aww, look at those tiny little monkeys. Waiting to be destroyed." The elf smiled. "These small blades should do the trick." She takes out multiple blades and aims them at the apes.

"You're gonna kill 'em, mate?" The kangaroo asked her.

"Nope. Just wanna get their attentions." She then throws them. The apes immediately heard the sound of the blades shooting down, and turns their head to the upper platform, right in time before the blades could hit them. "Yeah!"

"What the hell was that?!" One of them asked in shock.

"Now's my turn." Meanwhile, Flame and Elora are getting ready to fly through the crowd. "Hold on tight, Elora!"

The latter gets a tight grip on his neck. "Like this?"

"N - no! C - can't b - bre - ath!"

She quickly lets go. "Whoops. Sorry, Flame."

"Let's just get moving. Try holding on to my horns."

They flew quickly through the apes, landing on the other side. "Okay. You're ready Flame?"

"Mhm." He grinned. "Watch what else I can do with my Fire Field." Flame then unleashes a field of fire around all of them. Then, the apes, who didn't realize their presence until now, starts burning. All of them screaming in agony until they're nothing but ashes.

"Wow, Flame..." Elora looked at the ashes. "That was brutal..."

"WOO HOO!" Sheila and Stealth jumped down. "THAT WAS AWESOME, MATE!"

"YEAH!" The elf shouted.

"Hey, it would actually help if you all be quiet for a minute." They all stopped. "Mighty Ancestors of Earth, may my voice reach out to you. Summon the Vines of Purity, and let them open the obstacles in our path." Slowly, giant vines grow from the ground and begins to stick on the door. Cracks can be seen on it, until it finally breaks. "Thanks, Terrador." She whispered. They went through the pathway, but then stops in front of a dead end. "Sooo, I can only use that once an hour... What now?"

"Spyro, Malefor, can you guys hear me?"

"Loud and clear, Handel." Spyro answered. "What's going on?"

"It seems that the others met a dead end." Handel explained to him. "You 2 should be able to help them by destroying that wall."

"But how can we know which wall is which?" Malefor asked.

"According to my scans, there's another wall that connects directly to their location. Just follow the path."

"Wait, you can scan this place even though you're not here?" The older dragon asked him.

"Well, yeah. It only takes a spell from Bianca and a logic boost from Argus." He said to them. "What're you waiting for? Go!"

Back at the temple, Handel guides Spyro and Malefor to their destination. "This is going well."

"Our plan seems to be working smoothly." Bianca approached him. "I can't wait to see what happens next."

The human chuckled. "Good thing I scanned it before this. After I did that, I found out that there are 2 entrances to their lair. Elora, Flame, Stealth, and Sheila went to the left entrance, while the purple dragons went through the right one. The right entrance seemed to be long and full of enemies, so that's why I put those siblings there, while the others only had to deal with a room with many apes. After Elora opened the door, I actually knew that it would be a dead end, but I also found out that there is an anomaly on the ground there. Then I told Spyro and Malefor to go and help the others to reunite with them, although it is actually so they can help them if anything bad happens."

"I'm quite impressed." The rabbit smiled. "I guess not all teenagers are dumb."

"Thanks for the compliment, Bianca." Suddenly, he felt something weird happening. "Wait, what...?"

The 2 purple dragons successfully defeated all of the enemies along the way, and arrived at another dead end. "Wow, those ladies got prepared before we came." Spyro said.

"SPYRO, MALEFOR, WATCH OUT!"

"Huh? Handel? Watch wha-" The purple dragon immediately got punched by something that came out of the ground. He fell back down, unconscious.

"BIG BRO!"

"NO, MALEFOR, FOCUS ON THE ENEMY!" The younger dragon stopped and turned around, realizing what he's going to face alone. A big humanoid being, it's body made out of fire.

"W - what the heck is that thing?!"

"This is bad... So bad..." Handel said to himself. "I didn't know there was another one there as well!"

"Another one?" She looked at him, worried. "Oh goodness... You mean..."

"Sheila!" Elora rushes to the kangaroo, who is also unconscious. "Please, don't die..."

Flame stared at the monster in front of him. It was similar to the one in the other side, but the difference is that it's made out of water. "Elora, you take care of Sheila. Mademoiselle, help me beat this creature." He said seriously.

"With pleasure!" She prepared her blades before running to it, with Flame behind her. "THIS IS FOR HURTING MY FRIEND!!"

Malefor hit him with his water element, but the fire ignites again right after it was extinguished. "I don't know what to do to stop him!"

"Malefor, I think I found a way!"

"Handel?!" He quickly dodged the enemy's attack right after he answered. "Be fast!"

"Yeah, but you need Spyro to be awake, so go wake him up!"

"But what about THIS THING?!" The enemy lifted his fist, preparing to punch him.

"No need." A beam of ice froze the enemy's lower body. "I'm awake." Malefor turned around to see his brother, angered by the fire creature. "What's the plan, Handel?"

"Oh, uh, yeah, the plan. Spyro, you use ice to freeze it, then Malefor should immediately melt the ice with water!"

"It's still frozen!" The purple dragon breathes out water, melting the ice on it's legs. It also melted them, leaving his upper body. "Wow..."

"DIE!" Spyro shoots out another beam of ice from his jaws, freezing the enemy completely. "NOW!"

Malefor did the same thing, melting all of it. "We... Did it...?"

"We did..." The older dragon fell down, exhausted. "He hit real hard. I can still feel it."

"FLAME, STEALTH, KEEP THAT THING AWAY FROM ME!" The faun shouted. "I CAN STILL USE THE ANCESTORS' HELP!"

"Come here, ya big idiot!" Stealth runs around it.

"Mighty Ancestors of Earth, may my voice reach out to you..."

"Take this!" Flame shoots out a fireball at the enemy, drawing it's attention.

"Forgive my acts of overusing your strengths."

"YOOO!" The elf waved at it. "I'M STILL HERE, WETFACE!"

"Please, take some of my energy, and lend me your help!" Another monster, shaped like the enemy rises up, being made out of leaves and plants. "Thank you..." Elora collapses to the ground.

"Oh my ancestors..." Handel fell to his knees, breathing a sigh of relief. "That was serious..."

"Nice thinking Handel." Bianca said to him. "And I'm guessing that this isn't the last time you're gonna do that."

"Great... Did you reaaaallly have to remind me?"

Finally, my exams are finished, and I managed to write this! That means only 2 chapters left.

Meanwhile, if you haven't, you can read my new fic, Merged Stars. Another crossover but with ideas from Niceguy42 (I owe him A LOT).
