Omega's Redemption and the King of Everything.
It had been a few weeks since it happened. Since Storm had appeared. There was no doubt it anyone's mind that he was a traitor to the Skylander cause. Cynder woke up in her bed. She had felt empty. Without Spyro's warmth to comfort her, she had no consolance to her now troubled mind. It seemed as if everything just happened at once. She went down to see Omega, who was chatting with Nexus and Dark Spyro. "So when do you think he will be able to go out Dark Spyro?" asked Omega. "I dunno. He's making progress, and healing pretty well. I heard the healers say that while Spyro can take damage, he can't technically die. His life force is in another reality, which makes him being here a strange occurance, as his body here is basically a vessel. But when Storm hit the lightning scar, for a split second, that lifeline was severed. It was very lucky he survived.". Omega sighed in relief. Nexus followed, "I agree. He is one tough dragon. I've seen him survive things that should not be survivable. What he said a while back was true. He is no normal dragon.". Cynder sat down at the table. Dark Spyro notied her and said, "Hello. I have something to say. The healers said there is a faint possibility he could be released today.". He didn't get the chance to finish as Cynder zipped out of the house. If Spyro was going to get up, she wanted to be there when it happened.
It was quiet in the infirmary. Only the whir of machines pierced the silence. Then, a raspy breath shook the silence that had encloaked the room for so many weeks. Spyro's eyes twitched, and soon opened. His breathing started becoming smoother with every breath. A healer came in and saw Spyro waking up. He brought forth other healers to check on Spyro's condition. His lightning scar wasn't healed, and the spear had made a round scar mark near where it hit. However, the torn tissue in his chest had healed, and he was able to walk. The mabu helped him slowly walk to the front, where Cynder was waiting. Cynder watched as Spyro came out of the doors. She noticably winced when she saw the scar that plagued his once glorious orange breastplate. She helped him towards his house, where Omega embraced his father. Spyro smiled. He was however slower than normal and rested on the sofa. Cynder asked, "I never got to ask you this, but when Ciron said there are other universes, does that mean we could be able to see The Alternate versions of us from a while back?". Spyro frowned. "No. The Alternate versions came from another reality, and possibly a different time. A different universe and a different reality are not the same.". Omega watched his father. "Dad?" he quietly asked. Spyro turned to him. "Yes son?". Omega scratched his head. "I've been thinking. First of all, I wanted to know how you are able to control the infinite form, and why you can't go straight to it like you can do with your other forms. Spyro pondered an answer. "Well, I can control it because the purple dragon race can actually hold it, but it is very difficult to learn. I haven't mastered it yet. As for your second question, it takes time to build up that kind of power, so I need to channel energy from my other forms to do so.". Nexus spoke up. "Not that it matters, but all purple dragons I've read about find new ways to break their own limits. Some types can master forms while others can't even use it at all. Like Cynder for example. She was able to use Instinct Call, while Spyro can't even try. I have my Bankai power, and few others have it. They have advantages and drawbacks. The power increase is definetely an advantage, but while we break our limits all the time, our bodies still have a limit. The Bankai comes from my flow of energy. Like, if I were to use a times ten powerup for, say a minute, then my power for the next nine would be basically nullified since I used it all. Spyro's infinite form has massive power drain. And so forth.". Omega said that he had been working on something regarding Spyro's Infinite form. They followed him to the arena. They helped Spyro move as he was still a little weak. They watched as Omega focused his power, tapping into a power from another dimention. He leaned back and lightning began to crackle around him. Spyro watched with interest. Omega focused on throwing a punch. The power became greater and he clenched his fist. He pulled it back, and a white aura appeared around his arm. He punched in front of him and the wind howled as the dummies were torn apart by he force from his punch. The white aura faded. Spyro came down to meet him and asked what he had just done. Omega said he had tapped into Spyro's power dimention. And in doing so, he could enhance himself with the Infinite Energy that Spyro possessed. While he could access the energy, he could only use a small portion of it, and was therefore not able to pull off the Infinite form himself. He said he had more to show. Spyro went back up to the stands and watched.
Omega growled and focused on the energy. He felt it start to course through his body. He yelled and erupted in a red aura. His wings and mokawk turned red, and his power increased. He clenched his teeth. "This is my Power Form. It gives me a 100x increase.". He focused harder. He roared as his mohawk became larger, and he red aura became more potent. "This is my Power Form 2. It took me a while to learn, but it multiplies my Power Form 1's power by 4.". He focused all the energy he could mentally take and his mohawk grew even larger, and the Red aura glowed even brighter. "And this is the pinacle of my power. This is Power Form 3, wher it multiplies the power of Power form 2 by 10.". Spyro was impressed. He had a massive smile on his face. Omega noticed the smile on his father's face and felt prideful. Nexus got up and asked to have a quick match. Omega accepted. Nexus got ready by calling out, "Bankai, Times One HUNDRED!". He was encased in a blue aura. They charged at each other and began to fight. Omega threw a punch. It caught Nexus in the face. Nexus used an Earth Spike to counter. It pounded Omega in the chest. He recovered and released a wall of flame. Nexus put out the flames with water. Omega use the smoke as a cover and used his horns to pound Nexus into the ground. Nexus grabbed the young dragon and released a light beam after throwing Omega. Omega called, "ASENTRON!" and an Asentron beam cut through the light beam and hit Nexus. Nexus was surprised by the attack. The Red Aura around Omega flared as he sped across. He appeared behind Nexus, and a second later, shockwaves from Omega's punches hit Nexus. Nexus was astounded at the sheer speed and Power that Omega had. They exchanged several other blows. Soon it became clear that Nexus was losing the battle. His chest was battered by the onslaught of punches and attacks from Omega. Every time it hit, the Infinite energy combated with the Bankai Energy. With no other choice seeming available, Nexus called upon all his power as well as Omega. Before the two attacks collided, a wall of earth came up between the two and the explosion battered the Arena. Nexus was down, pain racking his body as he muttered, "Shikai". Omega looked to the side and saw his Father on the ground, him being the one who had created the wall. Omega smiled, but then he felt pain filling his being as he powered down to normal form. Cynder flew down to Omega. "What was that?". Omega grunted, "With the immense energy that it gives me, my normal body can't really handle the flux all that well. Also, Power Form 3 kind of wrecks my body whenever I use it, so I don't use it often. I usually stick with Power form 2, because it is easier.".
Spyro had Nexus rest, as nessesary after what had happened. Spyro had to ask a different person how it felt to wield the power of Infinity. Omega described it like this. "Well, it feels like a connection between me and something more powerful. It is an entity that is using me as a sort of conduit for the power. A vessel, to transport itself into the real world.". Spyro was interested onto how he used the Infinite power, but without using the Infinite form. He went out and tried it for himself. When the white aura faded, he saw that his arm was burnt. He concluded that without the steady increase in power, his body would not be able to handle the power difference. he wondered about how Omega was not able to use Power Form 3 without pain. He looked into the matter with Ciron. He showed Spyro a book that tought the connection between energy, the body, and magic. Spyro read until he found this quote. "There have been several instances where a dragon's body has been damaged due to a dramatic decrease in energy. The amount of energy one can withstand is dependant on the physical body of the user. If the person is well built, the body will be able to handle the increase and decrease in energy. However, the power drain does not go away.". Spyro was interested in how this happened, and how it explained a lot of things. Ciron displayed several instances of dragons trying to use too much power. It was very bad for them. Spyro decided to train Omega. Omega was testing his limits with his power when Spyro offered to train him. Omega accepted and they went to work. Spyro, while he had a light personality, his training regime was not. Alpha soon noticed Omega's constant tiredness. Alpha decided he wanted to get that strong too. He asked Omega if he could join in. Omega told him he would regret it. Alpha thought that Omega just didn't want him to surpass him, and so he got Spyro to train him. He was shook out of bed at 5:00 in the morning. Spyro notified him that he was an hour late for training. Omega was out, standing firm. Alpha greeted him. He asked what they would be doing first. Spyro brought them to a cavern in a large piece of island. There were weights on the ground, each set 50 yards away from each other. Alpha thought that it was easy. He flew and tried to pull them up. But he was yanked down to the ground by the resistance. He looked over to Omega and saw he was lifting the weights, but he was lifting a massive chunk of land with it. Spyro had an extra challenge and put 600 pound weights on Omega's legs. Omega just was barely able to lift them. He had sweat all over his face. "See what I mean?!" Omega yelled at Alpha. This went on for the next hour. The next, they were given sissors and were told they had to mow an entire lawn in a few minutes. This repeated until Alpha was panting on the ground, but Omega was standing. "Thank god it's over.". Omega glared and replied, "Don't get so cocky. It grows back in a day." Alpha fainted when he had to drag a mountain across hundreds of miles. He only made it 5 miles while Omega made it 50. Spyro allowed Alpha to rest while he tested Omega's endurance with his 3rd Power Form.
Omega ended up being able to handle it. Lunch was filling, as they were all very hungry. Alpha was cut short soon as the next excersise was a sparring match. With Omega having done the exercise for several days, he crushed Alpha in the sparring match. The rest of the day was spent punching mountains into canyons. When they were done, Alpha was wiped out several times over. Omega said, "Don't get too happy. We are doing the same thing tommorow.". Alpha slept like stone. Over the next few days, Alpha and Omega had begun to handle the immense work of Spyro's regieme. Spyro invited Cynder over on several occasions in order to teach them how to battle by instinct only. By her words, thinking in battle slowed down movements. If a dragon can rely on instinct alone, they can be a formidable fighter. Alpha had learned to control a new form called Zenkai. He was able to take the kinetic energy of his opponent's punches and hit with the same force. While in his form, he developed a move called Full Counter, where he was able to redirect magical attacks with even more force. However it was not perfect. It requires consious thought to activate, so surprise attacks would be successful. On the 50th day, Spyro revealed a new segment of their training. They were going to spar with Spyro. Cynder watched the match. Omega powered up to Power Omega 2. Alpha powered up to Zenkai Alpha. Spyro did not change, but got into a ready stance. Omega dashed foward first with a leading punch. Spyro held out his fist and Omega stopped immediately. Alpha teleported behind him and kicked Spyro. Spyro was knocked backward a few feet. Spyro's eyes dialated as his mind went into battle mode. Alpha drilled underground and strangely caused the earth so start punching himself. Omega was confused but rushed foward and exchanged blows with Spyro. Spyro pounded Omega away. As he was about to knock Omega out. Alpha shot out of the ground behind. Spyro and Alpha met fist with fist, and Spyro was launched into a wall. "Clever, using the earth to hit yourself to build up kinetic energy.". Spyro powered to Legendary Form. He launched at Alpha who had flown in the air. Omega grabbed Spyro and redirected his momentum to slam into the ground. Spyro was however not going full power, as he could freeze time with his Time Form. Alpha used fire to keep Spyro busy. Spyro launched a light beam. Alpha called "FULL COUNTER!". The light bam was redirected into Spyro, who was unfazed by the attack. Omega launched and pulled an Infinite punch. Spyro got up and said, "Huh, I actually felt that.". Omega turned into Power Omega 3.
Spyro was cought on the end of the two dragons with their most furious attacks. Soon, Spyro was actually having a little trouble defending. Omega and Alpha were reaching new heights. However, despite the training, Spyro could see that Omega and Alpha were becoming damaged because they were breaking their limits.They launched together in one final attack, but Spyro knew this was beyond dangerous. He turned into Time Spyro. He said, "I'm sorry.". He launched towards them, and knocked them both out. They fell to the ground out cold, but not majorly injured. He put them to bed. He felt a small stab of pain. The last hits from Alpha and Omega had been powerful ones. Spyro went home where he found Jiren and Ciron. Ciron said, "Spyro, I have disturbing news." Spyro listened. "I have just recieved that the Ancestorial Archaron wants to see you.". Spyro asked who he was. Ciron replied, "Archaron was the twin brother of a Pure One a few eons ago. He recieved the power of Infinity when his brother melded with the world. Since he was not a pure one himself, he became the most powerful entity in the universe. He watches over all of the 16 universes. His power has given him immortality, and is quite irritable at times. He is aided by his son, Shade, but most just call him by the title Grand Minister. Now, thankfully I have learned Instant Transmission to teleport to him. I need you to come with me.". Spyro nodded. Ciron tapped his foot two times and Spyro and him teleported away. They appeared infront of a massive palace. Spyro saw a dragon with Teal and Turquoise scales. Ciron bowed to him. Shade bowed in return. Shade noticed Spyro. He smiled. Spyro and Ciron went out to the Grand Minister and they appeared in a long hallway. "Follow me." Shade said in a calm voice. Spyro walked with him and whispered to Ciron. "Shade may not look like mush but I feel like he would be quite tough in a fight.". Ciron smiled. "Most keenly recognized Spyro. Many doubt him at first glance but when it comes to fighting he is in the top 5, in all the universes.". "Wow!" exclaimed Spyro. "Shhh." whispered Ciron. "I know how egotistical you can be but under no circumstances should you ask him to fight. Suffice to say not even Jiren can hold a candle to him.". Spyro gave a understanding nod.
Spyro, Shade and Ciron got to the end of the hall. Inside there were 3 dragons. Two were pure white with almost undistinctable eyes. In the middle, on a throne of gold, was Archeron. His head was blue which transitioned into a purple body. His Wings had white membranes. His horns were a shade of magenta. He stood up from his throne, and the two white dragons, obviously the guards, walked toward Spyro. Ciron bowed down as Acheron stopped in front of Spyro. Spyro stuttered, "Um...hi?". Archeron grinned and put his paw out to shake hands. Spyro shook it. Archeron said, "Spyro of Universe 9, it is very nice to meet you.". Spyro replied, "Likewise.". Archeron gestured with his hand to follow him. The dragons followed him to a circular arena. Archeron stood in the middle of the arena. "I heard from an associate that you have recently reached the Infinite form. Is this true?". Spyro said, "That is true, but I haven't mastered it. For one, I can't activate it at will, and for another reason is that when I am like that, I can lose control. With the immense power of the form, it becomes hard to control. Also, what associate?". Archeron smiled again. "I believe you know one another. Here he comes now.". Spyro turned and saw the Chronicler, Ignitus, come into the arena. "Hello Spyro.". Spyro waved back. Archeron continued talking. "Every universe has a Chronicler that controls their universe, and they are appointed by both me and Shade. As for why I called you here, I wanted to see what the Infinite form is capable of. And Spyro, before you ask, I will be lending you the temporary ability to tap into the power at will.". Spyro watched as the rest of the dragons teleported into the stand. Archeron snapped his fingers and Spyro was given the knowledge on how to tap into the ability. He yelled and transformed, but instead of the normal, somewht calm aura of Infinite Spyro, the aura was out of control. Archeron summoned several golems to fight. Spyro opened his eyes and in the blink of an eye, the golems crumbled.
Over the next half hour this continued. Eventually Spyro was taken out of the form. Archeron erased the knowledge from his mind. Archeron came down to Spyro. "That was fun. Can you visit sometimes? It gets pretty lonely up here.". Spyro agreed and Ignitus teleported them home. After a brief assurance to Jiren that everything was fine, Ciron said he wanted to examine Spyro's Death and Elemental forms. Spyro went to the Tournment Arena. He focused on bringing his strongest form. But what happened next, stunned everyone. Spyro did not turn into his Death, or his Elemental form. His white aura erupted and he turned into Infinite Form Spyro. Ciron and Jiren gasped, and their eyes looked like dinner plates. Spyro took notice of the unexpected transformation. "What happened!?". Jiren regained his composistion. "You said you were briefly given the ablitity to transform at will, correct? My hypothesis is when you went under the transformation, your mind and body got used and made the knowledge to transform into bassically a sort of instinct. Now you are able to transform it at will, however, since you have very minute experience using the actual form, it's full power is very underdeveloped, and your power will not be at it's full potential. I am interested because I recently got an invitation from another Destroyer about having 5 of the strongest fighters from our universe going up against the 5 strongest from theirs. If you are wondering it is from Universe 8, which Destroyer also happens to be my cousin. He and I have had many fights about who's universe is the best and since the law of Archeron forbids Destroyers to fight, we couldn't really decide, but now that you have the ablity to activate Infinite Form at will I might accept, but you will need to win.". It took Spyro a while to ponder this and in doing so he powered down too fast. He yelled in agony as his lightning scar blazed, with the pain multiplied a thousand fold as when it first appeared. The pain subsided after a minute, but to Spyro it lasted an eternity.
Cirn expressed major concerns at what Spyro went through. "This must be one of the drawbacks of the Infinite form. The immense power drain damages your body as your power is sent into a flux. What made this different from your fight with Jiren was you naturally expended your energy, instead of packing it inside as you did just now. I would advise for future reference that you go through your forms in decreasing power, so that your body does not try to pack it in all at once. That aura is not just for show. That is the excess energy being released from your body. Since your aura does not exist in base form, the energy being expelled is forced inside that single vessel that is your body, and the force causes your body to feel agony. My previous suggestion of going through form could be replaced by hardening the body and therefore somewhat nulling the pain. But nullifying it completely, that is simply impossible, and even if it was it would take years of non stop training in order to handle the drawback entirely, and considering this was only a small fraction of the Form's power, it is likely that at full power it would have serious negative drawbacks, so I would reccomend that in a fight you should only use the Infinite form as a last resort. So learn how to control your elemental and death forms. This is the most prudent path to success. I have done similar training with Jiren. As for the fight his cousin wantst to hold, I decided that our most powerful warriors are you, Nexus, Cynder, Omega, and Dark Spyro. We dieties are forbidden to face each other as it would disrupt the natural law of order. This comes from Archeron himself. He is to be notified of any clashes between universes so he can preside over them and ensure fair play. I will have to go and notify him of this. I will be back in a short while.".
With that, Ciron tapped his foot and teleported. Jiren came foward to Spyro. "Trust me with this, dragon. I think no higher of you for this. But I do have a piece of respect. You have surpassed many dieties of the known cosmos. I have to warn you. Try to stay away from Archeron. While you can be respectful, your impulsive atittude might offend him, and he could erase our universe. I have seen it. He once erased a universe for 100 years because they insulted him. I was there to witness it, and it didn't look like it even tired him at all. Archeron said that if anybody were to do it again they would be erased for 1000 years instead. After that happened I asked the Destroyer what it was like. He said it was like being nothing. Being unable to do anything, robbed of your personality, and day after day. He said he never wanted to be erased again. I could see why. Archeron did say to me that he didn't like doing all those innocent lives, but that is what made it so effective. The person who did it had to suffer the guilt of dooming all those innocent lives to that punishment. Eventually, he killed himself as he felt that hell was a better place than staying on the land of the living. So now you can see that I definetely do not want that to happen to anybody ever. I wouldn't wish that on anybody. I hope you wouldn't. Archeron also hates when people are selfish, and put revenge before helping others. So, if you ever meet Archeron, try with every fiber of your being to not insult him. Am I understood?". Spyro replied, "Yes, and what you described makes me want to train even harder, so that it will never happen to me. After everything is said and done, I am honestly unsure if I am strong enough. But one thing is for certain. I will not give up. And in doing so, I will become strong enough to say for certain, that I will be able to protect my friends.". With that, Jiren and Spyro returned to their respective houses. Omega was watching and had overheard everything. He realized what posistion their universe was in. He thought, "This is crazy. How can we expect to pull out on top of all the universes when they have warriors that are equal to Spyro? I have seen my father's powers firsthand, but to know there are people who can erase universes in an instant? That is nuts. If we end up on the wrong side of Archeron, then..." Omega shuddered, "Ancients bless us all.".
Thanks for Reading.
P.S If you are wondering, I will start to make these chapters longer, so you can look foward to them. I might be out of the fanfiction writing game for a while as I crack down on the last few days of school, so PEACE!
