*Spyro wakes up spitting out river water.*
Spyro: Huff... Huff... *Spyro can see more clearly as he saw the hay that was the floor of Spyro's parents home.* W-What happened...!?
Flash: *Spyro's entire family, including Cynde, was surrounding him.* You was,... attacked my boy...
*Cynder immediately hugged him*
Nina: How are you feeling
Spyro: Sore like…. really sore.
Sparx: Who….. even was that guy?
Spyro: *Spyro wiped his mouth slowly.* It was Necron... wasn't it?
Cynder: *Cynder's eyes grew dark with worry, she was starting to fear Spyro's condition was worsing. She was afraid Spyro couldn't take the stress of war anymore. She figured that was Necron's whole point. Spyro was becoming dangerous. Cynder knew this deep down.* Yes... Spyro... It was Necron...
Spyro: *Spyro sat up slowly. Holding his chest, which was bruised.* What did... he even want?
Sparxs: You know this Necron guy?
Cynder: Yeah we met him at Warfang... he seemed nice...
Spyro: Yeah...
Sparx: Man.. you two meet the weirdest of people!
*Cynder was too busy thinking to acknowledge Sparxs comment. What did he mean about her father? What is the Hollow Kingdom?*
Spyro: *Spyro slowly leaned himself onto the wall.* Well.. whoever he is... *Spyro winched in pain.* We're going to stay far away from him...
Flash: Will it really be that easy...?
Cynder: *Cynder started to get scared. Her whole world started to become unsure. Spyro was losing his grip, her father had sent someone to attack the one she loved, and her new home was now unsafe.* ... *Cynder remained silent.*
Sparxs: Well, what should we do?
*Cynder sighed*
Cynder: The only thing we can do is… to go to Warfang and inform the guardians...
*Spyro looked up at Cynder surprised*
Spyro: But, Cynder-
Cynder: No buts…. Spyro
Spyro: Those dragons don't treat you right... We should stay here... where we're welcome...
Cynder: *Cynder shook her head frustrated.* That's not even the point Spyro...
Spyro: *Spyro sat up a little better.* Then what is the point!?
Cynder: It's about Necron, it's about the Hollow city...
Spyro: I don't want anything... to do with that... I just... want... you...
*Spyro trailed off as his breathing got heavier.*
Nina: Hmmmm...
*Nina got an idea*
Nina: Maybe, we could go with you!
*Both Spyro and Cynder looked surprised*
Flash: Honey…? Are you sure?
Nina: Of course if those dragons are treating Cynder like that…. We gotta support her!
Sparxs: ...
Spyro: *Spyro exchanged a smile with Cynder.* You know... I'm okay with that idea...
Cynder: Yeah... *Cynder cuddled up to Spyro.* I agree, I wasn't ready to say goodbye yet... Not when they just brought me in as one of their own...
Sparx: And I thought I could get out of this whole adventure thing... but someones gotta watch over you fatty.
Nina: And I ain't leaving my babies again
Flash: It would be nice to leave the swamp
*Spyro smiled*
Cynder: When do you think we'll come back?
Flash: Lets just call this a family business trip... and We hope we'll be home before we know it...
Spyro: *Spyro liked the sounds of that.* K Dad... Sounds good...
[Fields of Avalar]
*The new family was walking on a path towards Warfang.*
Nina: Man, it's been a long time since I left that swamp.
Flash: Agreed... We really needed to leave.
*Sparx was sitting on Spyros head and Spyro was walking next to Spyro*
Cynder: *Cynder was the furster back. She had witnessed Spyro getting angry again. She dared not to tell Sparxs, for she was concerned about the relationship between her and her new family.* ... *Cynder decided she was going to tell Sparxs in private later, about Spyro's condition.*
Flash: So you say... Warfang is going under repairs...?
Spyro: Uh huh... It was attacked not too long ago... During that war we told you about last night...
Nina: Oh my...
Sparx: Yeah ,it was wild! Right Spikey?
Cynder: Yeah... it was...
*Nina gave Cynder a worried look*
Spyro: It was tough.
Flash: Man! I never knew I would raise such warriors!
Nina: We knew times was tough back then... we spent a lot of nights praying for the both of you...
Flash: *Flash hovered over by Cynder with a warm smile.* At least... you two were never really alone... was you...
*Cynder smiled*
Cynder: Someone had to watch these two boys… *Cynder walked up to Spyro and nuzzled up against him.*
Sparx: I could of handle myself…...
*Everyone laughed.*
Spyro: Well... It won't take long to get there... *Spyro looked behind the pack. He was watching out for anyone who could have been watching.* ...
Sparxs: Whats up...?
Spyro: ...
Flash: No, need to worry my boy... Necron wouldn't dare attack us when we know he's watching us! Shady fellows don't do anything... Flashy...
*Spyro sighed*
Spyro: I guess you're right...
*Spyro continued to keep watch*
Cynder: I wish he would just relax some day
Sparx: Agreed! He's been really stressed.
Flash: And I don't think this Necron fella... is a good outlet for Spyro...
Nina: The sooner we get to the Dragon Guardian's the better!
Cynder: I agree... We'll feel safer at the Warfang Temple...
Spyro: *Spyro turned and led the way.* Yeah, if we pick up the pace, we'll be there in a couple of hours...
[ Warfang streets]
*Spyro was walking the streets trying not to draw attention to himself*
Nina: Man this place is beautiful….
Flash; It really quite is nice
Sparx: You haven't seen anything yet.
Spyro: *Spyro had sped ahead of everyone without them noticing.* Yeah, yup... its... a nice place... *Spyro looked around the corner.* ... Very... Very nice people... *Spyro saw a group of youthful dragons down that street.*
Cynder: Warfang is most definitely a peaceful forward thinking place...
Spyro: *Spyro paniced and jumped in front of Cynder and his family.* H-Hey! Let's go this way! *Spyro started to shove his family.*
Sparxs: W-Woah! What gives!?
Spyro: It's a shortcut! *Spyro said shoving them towards an alley.*
Cynder: Spyro are you ok?
Spyro: Uh, Y-Yeah of course just want to get my family to the guardians as soon as possible...
*Cynder gave him a skeptical look*
Cynder: Well... alright then
*They started to walk down the alley as Spyro sighed a sigh of relief.*
Sparxs: *They walk for a little while.* You know... I think this way is longer...
Spyro: Oops... My bad...
Sparxs: *Sparxs shakes his head.* Jumping ahead of yourself Spyro...? Is our parents making you nervous?
Spyro: *Spyro began to sweat.* Oh! Yeah! Yup... I'm... just making silly mistakes...
Cynder: *Cynder saw a group of teenage dragons walk by the sidewalk that was near the alley.* ...
Spyro: *Spyro grabbed Sparxs and his parents and took their attention towards a Mole who was doing Laundry on his roof.* OH! Look! a Mole! Hi Mister Mole!
Cynder: *Cynder turned confused.*
Mole: Oh... Hi? *The mole simply waves hi.*
Flash: Well, How do you do, sir? Nice weather!
*Spyro started to sweat a bit from nervousness*
Spyro: Eheh…...
*Spyro took his attention off the mole and noticed dragons came his way despite his efforts.*
Dragon: Hey isn't that the purple dragon?
Spyro: Uh….. Let's…... go this way?
*Spyro tried to push his family into another alleyway.*
Cynder: *Cynder of course caught on to what Spyro was doing.* Okay! Spyro! ... That's enough! *Cynder stopped Spyro from pushing his family.* Don't think I can't tell what you're doing...
Spyro: *Spyro sort of froze.* W-... What am I doing!?
Cynder: You're avoiding the dragons!
Spyro: I...
Sparxs: Hey... You know what? He was! Wasn't he?
Nina: Honey….? Why are you doing this?
*Spyro kept on sweating*
Sparx: Spill it Spyro…..
*Spyro sighed hard. As he felt his feelings spill out.*
Spyro: It's just that...I don't want people to... stare at Cynder and judge her I... I can't let that happen again…
Cynder: Judge me or not, I am not going to watch you stress out about this! *Cynder grabbed a hold of Spyro's paws.* I do not care what people say about this... but as of right now... I'm... I'm afraid...
Spyro: *Spyro looked away, nervous.* You're afraid of... what...?
Cynder: That your heart cannot take any more...
Spyro: Any more... What? *Spyro looked at her, slightly concerned.*
Cynder: Well... anymore... *Cynder looked for words that would make Spyro feel better, or at least avoid talking about his mental condition.* ... Well... Anymore... Fear... of... my well being...
*Spyro looked down*
Cynder: Spyro... lets just head to the guardians ok?
Spyro: Ok…
Cynder: *Cynder took Spyro's paw and started to guide him out of the alley.*
*Spyros mind: I can't stop protecting her... I won't stop...*
*They started to leave the alley way and head to the guardians
[Warfang Temple]
Cynder: *Cynder sighed with relief as she opened the large door that led to the Temple.* And here... We are...
Nina: *Nina slowly examined the large chamber.* Wooow, it is fancy...
Sparxs: Meh, the old Dragon Temple was still way better... I mean, dustier,... older... mossier... *Sparxs gave Spyro a thumbs up.* But it had class...
Spyro: *Spyro looked outside before shutting the temple door. He didn't see any dragons heading this way. Spyro turned around and laid his back on the door.* ...Well... I'd say... your right Sparxs...
Flash: Hm... *Flash turned to Spyro.* I suppose we should find the guardians... tell them that you guys returned...
Spyro: Y-Yeah, good idea...
*The family started walking down the hallways as Nina and Flash admired the art work and walls of the temple*
Nina: It's so beautiful
Flash: Mhm.
*Spyro smiled at there reaction*
*Shortly after they finally reach the guardians chamber's large wooden door.*
*When they entered the Chamber, Spyro and Cynder were surprised to see only Terrador was there. He was looking through a stack of books he had scattered throughout the floor.*
Spyro: *Spyro led his family into the chamber.* Hey. Terrador... *Spyro approached him first.* We're back!
Terrador: Oh... Young Spyro, Young Cynder... Welcome back... *Terrador tucked a book under his arm.* Was your trip fruitful?
Spyro: Well…. kinda...
*Terrador looked up from his reading concerned.*
Terrador: What do you mean?
Spyro: Well,... We were attacked by a dragon named, Necron.
Terrador: Hmmm….. Haven't heard of him... What element is he?
Cynder: *Cynder walked up by Spyro.* He's... a poison dragon... from the city of Hollow,...? Have you heard of it?
Terrador: *Terrador rubbed his chin, as he started to recall something.* A Poison dragon...?
Spyro: Have you heard of Hollow City before,...?
Terrador: Hollow City... was a rumor... that is known to... have evidence of actually existing... *Terrador was deep in his own thoughts.*
Terrador: Wait... a poison dragon came in here a few days ago...
Spyro: That was probably him then...
Cynder: Did he say anything?
Terrador: Well... he didn't mention his name but... he was asking about you Cynder…
Spyro: *Spyro's scale started to fade darker.* Of... course he did... *Spyro's scales faded back before anyone noticed.*
Cynder: *Cynder stood by Spyro.* Did he mention why?
Terrador: N-No... Not really?
Sparxs: Or what he wanted...?
Terrador: No... he didn't...
Spyro: *Spyro was a little upset by this.* And you didn't question a stranger!? He was obviously suspicious!''
Terrador: Im sorry Spyro... none of us expected him to be suspicious...
*Spyro growled under his breath*
Cynder: Spyro calm down...
Sparx: Yeah,... man chill.
Spyro: Grrr…...errr….r…...
*Everyone waited for Spyro to answer. In an awkward silence.*
Spyro: *Spyro inhaled.* Fine... *Spyro turned around and started walking away.* I don't... want to make anyone angry... so I'll... wait outside...
*Everyone watched Spyro open the door with his paws, and close the door behind him with his tail.*
*Cynder sighed*
Terrador: That... was odd... Spyro isn't normally like that
Cynder: Yeah... he's been stressing out a lot…. he needs a break... from this... madness…
Terrador: Alright... What do you guys know? You guys know anything about Necron or what he's after...?
Cynder: The... only thing is... *Cynder was about to tell Terrador and the rest of Spyro's family about Necron stating Spyro was sick, and could cause harm to others. However, she let herself change the subject...for Spyro's sake.*
*Getting out of her head Cynder leaned forward.*
Cynder: He said... That... My father sent me his regards...
Sparxs: Wait? Necrons Dad?
Cynder: *Cynder turned nervously to Sparxs.* N-No... he meant my father... *She kept this information from everyone until now. She couldn't even approach Spyro about it. Since Spyro had left the room, she could tell everyone.*
*Terrador looked surprised*
Terrador: I guess your parents are still alive... congratulations….. Cynder
Cynder: Well, thanks... but I don't think my parents are friendly... especially after what Necron did to Spyro….. And to be honest... *Cynder checked behind herself, keeping her eye out for Spyro.* ... *Cynder turned back.* I don't... really... want to stress Spyro out about this... I think he might have an issue... with... stress,... *Cynder looks down.* It's like... he... might lose control...
*Everyone fell silent.*
Terrador: *Terrador coughed in his hand to break the silence.* Well, I can get rooms prepared for you, Spyro and the dragonfly family... and I can call in extra security for the time being...
Cynder: Ok...
Sparx: Sooo, Terrador, how are Ember and Flame doing?
Terrador: Ah! Great point… they'll help with the guarding duties as well.
*Cynder had completely forgotten about Ember*
Cynders mind: Great... I forgot about Ember...*
[Out in the streets of Warfang]
*Spyro was not near the Temple.*
Spyro: *Spyro held his head low, and his eyes forward.* ... I know I saw someone...
*Spyro's uneasiness was getting to him. He inched the corner of the building and peered down to see more sidewalk leading further down the streets.*
*Spyro saw there wasn't anywhere to really hide in these streets, and he didn't see anyone on the rooftops. He peered into the horizon and saw a lot of Avalar, his heart calmed down as he admired the view*
Spyro: Man…. the view is beautiful!
*Spyro took a deep breathe and calmed down*
Spyro: *Spyro seemed to take a breath and started walking back towards the Temple.* Man... maybe I am losing it... Maybe Cynder... and Necron... was right...
?: Who was right...? *Spyro turned to see Sparxs flying towards him slowly.*
Spyro: Oh, Sparxs... Whats up? ... *Spyro looked behind Sparxs slowly, seeing no one was with him.* And... Where... Cynder?
Sparxs: *Sparxs crossed his arms.* Nothing much, I just got done, checking out my new room with mom and dad... and you and Cynder got your own room...
Spyro: So where is she?
Sparxs: Still talking to Terrador...
Spyro: Oh ok... Is Terrador ok...?
Sparx: He's fine…. Don't worry about greeny..
*Spyro sighed*
Spyro: I feel bad for yelling at him…
Sparxs: *Sparxs punched Spyro in the shoulder. Without saying anything to each other, they started walking towards the Temple.* Don't sweat it bro! You walked away before anyone's feelings got hurt... *Sparxs then sort of looked away.* ... Cynder did…. Talk to Terrador about your... um...
Spyro: *Spyro looked away.* Out bursts...?
Sparxs: Yeah... *Sparxs smiled, as if glad about something.* Terrador called in more guards to the Temple... and We're all going to take a small break...?
Spyro: *Spyro turned to Sparxs.* Huh!? Why? What about Hollow City!?
Sparx: Woah woah, buddy. First of all….. You should be glad! You two need a break.
Spyro: But, what about Necron?!
*Sparx sighed*
Sparx: Look Cynder wants you to relax and you should listen to her
*Before they realized it, they was near the Temple.*
Spyro: *Spyro still kept is head low.* Yeah... I suppose... shes... *Spyro lifted his up, thats when on the other side of the Warfang Temple, he saw the Poison dragon necron, eyeing him.* ...H-... *Spyro took off.* HEY, YOU!
*Necron slips away quickly.*
Sparxs: S-Spyro!?
*Spyro started chasing Necron*
Spyro: Get back here!
Sparx: Spyro wait up!
*Spyro bumped into other people trying to get to Necron*
*Spyro didn't realize it, but he had already lost sight of Necron.*
Sparxs: Dude! Where are you going!?
Spyro: *Spyro started to panic as he began to slow down.* Darn it... i just saw him! *Spyro turned as Sparxs tried to reach out to him.*
Sparxs: Spyro...-
Spyro: This way maybe?
*Spyro ran down an alley*
Sparx: Dude calm down!
*Spyro ignored him and kept running*
Spyro: Hes gotta be this way!
*Spyro made Sparxs chase Spyro through a lot of alleys. Anywhere a dragon could hide, Spyro just had to check.*
Spyro: ... *Spyro started to pant.* Where... Where... ...Where could he...
Sparxs: *Sparxs was panting.* Now... do you see... why you... need a break...? *Sparxs laids on his belly on top of Spyro's head.* Phew...
Spyro: But I could of sworn...
*That was when Spyro saw a peer of red eyes in the dark part of the Alley.*
Spyro: THERE! *Spyro ran so hard, Sparxs barely caught Spyro's horns to hang on.*
Sparxs: WOOOAH!?
Spyro: *Spyr turned the corner to bare fangs* GRAAAWR!
?: Pl-... Please don't hurt me...
Spyro: *Spyro closed his mouth.* H-Huh...? *Spyro looked down to see a tiny pink dragon fly with two red ribbons flowing down her back, shielding herself from Spyro.*
?: *Her voice was very innocent, and sweet.* I... I didn't... mean to offend you... by... by...following you... S-sir...
Spyro: Oh sorry
*Spyro put the dragonfly down*
Spyro: I thought you were someone else... are you ok?
*The dragonfly dusted herself off*
?: Yep
Sparxs: *Sparxs peers over Spyro's head, seeing this new dragonfly. His heart did a backflip when he saw how cute and innocent she was. Sparx's started to blush.* Oh... My...
Spyro: *Spyro looked up at Sparxs.* Looks like someone was following us Sparxs:
Sparxs: I... I um... see that...
? *The dragonfly looked down shyly, Spyro could see a small pink blush on her pinkish face.* I'm... I'm sorry! I just... I just... *She started to back up.* Wanted... to... meet...you?
*Spyro want really surprised of course some people would follow him to talk to him*
Spyro: You wanted to see me?
?: N-no... S-Sparx…
Sparxs: *Sparxs whispered behind Spyro's horm.* W-What did she just say!?
Spyro: *Spyro peered up.* She wants to meet you dude...
Sparxs: *Sparxs started to get nervous.* What... R-Really!?
Spyro: *Spyro drooped his head over making Sparxs flip into the air in front of him.*
*They both get startled*
?: Uh!?
Sparxs: Um... *Sparxs scratched his head.* I'm... Sparxs...
*The pink dragonfly blushed*
?: I-I'm a big fan of you...
Sparx: R-really?!
?: Y-yeah…
Sparxs: Well... Uh... *Sparxs rubbed the back of his Head.* How about... we start with... Your name?
Katey: I'm... I'm Katey ... the... dragonfly...
