Here's a brief Q and A for this chapter.

Owyn Ross: I legit didn't know that the prototype was recently released until I saw your review. I have to admit, I might go through with that conflict when I get to it in this fic.

And also, after seeing the prototype myself, via Youtube, I have a major question.

Why didn't they use Elora's narration for the intro's and outro's of the levels, in the final version?! And better yet, why didn't the Reignited Trilogy have that narration as an option?

Chapter 18: Saving the Metro Mayor

After the Zephyr vs Breeze Harbor business was over with, the dragon Quartet, along with Elora, and their recently recruited friend, Hunter III, uncle of Hunter IV, was resting off their recent adventures that left them all pretty exhausted. Being their successful attempt in forcing the Land Blubbers, and the Breeze Builders to make peace with each other, just so that they would make it harder for Ripto to conquer Avalar through his cunning. Which he could be using plenty of, to put Avalar in disarray, but so far, they were doing a good job in fixing those problems before they can get worse.

Which, in the long run, meant that Ripto would find it harder to try to conquer this World.

But for now though, with the Breeze Builder/Land Blubber situation over with, they were now resting it off, before they were then prepared to go to the second Speedway of Avalar.

Which was known as the Metro Speedway. Which was in the little doorway that was extended upwards, near the gazebo that had Zephyr's Portal in it. And they were told that they need Orbs to get there.

Which, they have plenty of.

"Well done guys! The Orbs that we got from Summer Forest, as well as the first four portals that we completed, has activated the whirlwind!" Elora said. Using the Orb's magic to summon a whirlwind that went up to the doorway. "Now there's nothing stopping us from going to Metro Speedway if we wish to." She then said.

Much to the Quartet's excitement, as they wondered what the Metro Speedway would look like. Though judging by the name of the Realm, they expected that they could be flying through the cities of the Speedway, while taking on the Flight course that they know, and used to hate.

But now they were more fond of the Speedways, and they were feeling excited to enter the Speedways of Avalar''s.

And now, they were willing to take on the Speedway, and impress Elora, and Hunter III with their skill in this speedway course challenge. If only they could see Hunter IV there, they could imagine the look on his face.

It's too bad, that little did the dragon Quartet, and Faun know, Hunter was on the roof of the Manor of Autumn Plains, unconscious from his battle with his uncle.

"Have you been there before?" Spyro asked Elora, referring to Metro Speedway.

"Yep. I have. And if any of you are a city type of dragon, then that Speedway is right up your alley." Elora responded, smiling at them.

The Quartet did visit the cities that was in the Artisans, as well as the Peace Keepers Worlds, and they also visited the cities of the Magic Crafters, and Dream Weavers Worlds during their post-Gnasty days. Even though they still avoided the swamp World of the Beast Makers, as none of them were fond of the world. so they didn't feel that they could feel out of their environment if they were to enter the Metro Speedway.

Once they were ready, they all proceeded to enter the Portal to Metro Speedway. Where the flight course challenge for the Quartet would begin.


Elora watched, alongside Hunter III, and the three dragons, being Spyro, Flame, and Ember, as they witnessed Cynder taking on the challenge of the Metro Speedway, where she had to fly through the canal of the city that they were currently standing on, as they watched her taking down the Pigeons that stood on the levers in the canal. Which none of the locals complained about when they saw it happen. Not only that, but they did give her thumb ups, since the Pigeons were becoming pests.

Once she got out of the canal that the Pigeons were leading her through, she suddenly saw that she was flying towards three tower buildings, all of which had upper most sections that was being used for bungee jumping while near the remaining three Pigeons that she was after. And a certain side of her, felt that it wouldn't hurt to punish those bungee jumpers for their willingness in breaking the Metro Speedway rules.

So as she torched the Pigeons, she ended up slicing the stretchy rope that the bungee jumpers used, causing them to plummet into the water as they made amusing wee noises.

The ropes weren't that hard to slice through, or use her breaths against as long as they snap, which counted toward her score in Metro Speedway, as she saw some arches. Which she Supercharged through, causing them to break for unknown reasons as she kept on charging fast over the bridge to the other end of the city.

Where she saw a bunch of workers on some tall steel spires that held up some slow signs. Almost like they were trying to tell her to slow down. Only for her to respond with using her breaths against them, when they taunted her for being so slow. Now she was taking them all down, as her friends were cheering for her to finish the course and win. All while Elora, and Hunter III, looked on in pride.

Then after she took the last of the workers, which was near the remaining arches that she needed to fly through, she proceeded to take out the remaining arches to finish the course with time still on the clock.

Much to her friends excitement as they proceeded to fly through the air for the celebratory fun of it. Basically flying around like flying puppies again as they kept on laughing, and smiling at each other throughout their fun together.

Complete with loop de loops, barrel rolls, and even some mid air dancing. Elora could even hear some music in the background, at least in her mind as she witnessed them together in the sky.

Especially when they had romance involved as all four of the dragons proceeded to nuzzle each other while in the air, while also adding in some synchronized dives together looking like they were going to dive into the water, only to fly forwards again, and even some twirls were added in. Even while they did some flying around in circles together.

Which had Hunter III feeling surprised at how fluently they fly together. All while Elora continued to feel coy at how adorable that they were together.

Especially Spyro, and Cynder. As she wished that she was with them both, flying through the air with Spyro in her arms.

But alas, that's the problem with her view towards Spyro. In that she had to admit, she started to admire him as much as Cynder does. And yet she has him first, while Elora was merely their best friend, and their companion throughout their time in Avalar. And she knew that she could end, or irreparably strain her friendship with Cynder if she decides to get too close to him. And she knew that she could cause him to break her heart if she was able to have him hook up with her.

And she didn't want to do that. She just felt that it'd be mean of her to try to take Spyro from Cynder, especially since Spyro could love her just as much as Cynder, and herself, loves him.

Especially since she thought about how long they might've been together as friends, before their journey to defeating Gnasty Gnorc, where both Spyro, and Cynder hooked up near the end of it, and the aftermath of that journey when Spyro, and Cynder might've kept on loving each other, alongside Flame, and Ember.

Even though she didn't know it, she was correct in assuming their developing romance after Gnasty's demise. Spyro, and Cynder continued to love each other, continuing to nuzzle each other, and even cuddle together with each other even before their journey through Gnasty's loot. And the aftermath of that, when they became like an item during their days of challenging the flight records of the Flight Realms back in the Dragon Worlds. They even dated each other plenty of times in their Home Worlds, as well as in the Dream Weavers, where they dated each other alongside Flame, and Ember.

And they even dated at least one time in Dragon Shores too.

Sure there might've been some arguments, but none of them was severe enough, and none of them was enough to split them apart. (Same could be said for Flame, and Ember.) Besides, they did argue before, even before their journey to Gnasty. And their friendship, and eventual romantic relationship remained the same. If not better than last time.

In fact, a part of them thought that the phrase, 'What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger.' might as well be applied to their relationships with each other. Due to the fact that no argument between them, undid their friendship, it was that strong.

Which was why, she had two choices. She could either remain as only friends with Spyro, and Cynder, and just be happy with whatever Faun or Satyr that succeeds in making her their girlfriend, and mate, or she could do what some of the other Fauns do too, and have 'it' with them both.

Which for the latter, even before she met both dragons, she didn't feel interested, or drawn, into joining one, or even making one with her future mate. Whom she had yet to choose, and even then, she didn't know if she would let him make one with her, or if she would like it to be only herself, and her future mate. But here, she was starting to change her mind about her potential mate that she could have in the future, and making 'it' at least in a three way with herself, Spyro, and Cynder.

(The latter of whom, she also started to admire throughout their journey.)

She just hoped that they could be fine with it once she gets around to asking them.

But she had some doubts that Spyro, or Cynder could even feel interested in having one with herself, considering that she's a Faun, while both of them were dragons, which would be unusual for such a relationship to happen between them, at least in their view, that, and both Elora, and Cynder were girls, but she felt confident that they couldn't mind having 'it' with her, as she watched them dance in the sky, alongside Ember, and Flame.

Which was also witnessed by the Mayor of Metro Speedway himself, as he couldn't help but smile at the scene behind his moustache. "Ah see that those'r yer dragon companions, are they not?" The Mayor said in a Scottish accent.

"Why yes. They're my companions." Elora said after her surprise at meeting the Mayor himself, alongside Hunter III. "By the way, how are things in this city?"

"Other then me problem that ah have need fur them to fix, everything's fine." The Mayor said to Elora as the dragons were done with their flying for now, when they saw Elora talking to the Mayor of Metro Speedway.

"Hello there. Are you in charge of this place?" Spyro asked, judging by the clothing that the Mayor is wearing.

"Indeed yoong dragon. an' ah'm afraid Ah might need yer help, now that th' coorse has bin completed by yer hand. Ya see, A band oof cat burglars hae snatched mah re-election funds frae mah treasury, and ah need yer help to get th'm back." He then said to Spyro. "If any of ya can grab th money back from th'r mitts, ah'd be mighty thankful."

"Cat Burglars? I'm guessing that they were sent by Ripto for this job?" Spyro asked, guessing that this could be what Ripto could do, if he was planning to take over this Speedway Realm too. Which he was confident that it's what he was trying to do."

"Ah've always had trouble with those burglars before this Ripto fellow appeared, but ah'll take yer word for it." The Mayor said.

"Then say no more! We'll help you." Flame said

"Excellent! An it seems that ya have friends already. That's relieving ta see, as th' Hunter wis suppose tae be 'ere tae help us too. Ah wonder where he is." The Mayor said.

"I'll fill in for him. This city needs all the help that it can get after all." Hunter III said, as he took his bow out, knowing who the Mayor was referring to, by 'The Hunter'.

"As ya wish. Be sure to shoot th funds outta those cat's hands while the dragons catch th'm during th'r descent." The Mayor said.

"I'll be here to grab the money if the dragons aren't able to catch them in the air." Elora said, prepared to grab any of the Gems if they get into the water with her grapple hook arrows. Even though she was also confident that none of the dragons would be slow enough to let them fall in.

"I'll do that too. She might need help after all." Cynder said, feeling that she could need a little break after her flight in the obstacle course, and with her boyfriend, even if she's confident that her friends will grab those money bags too. But she'll join in once she's rested enough. Which shouldn't take long.

"Excellent! My police shall arrest th' ones that is on th' walls, after ya grab any of th' money bags as well, before they get swept up in th' water. That'll teach th'm." The Mayor said, smiling behind his Stache.

The dragons, and Hunter III obeyed, as they were now on patrol to find the cats on the Metro Speedway walls, leaving Elora, and Cynder on one of the bridges as they walked on the buildings, making sure to look for the burglars too.

It took some minutes of that, but they found them, and now Hunter III was shooting at the cats, causing them to drop the loot via parachute, before falling into the water, where they would get caught by the police. While the dragons would grab the loot as they descended, which wasn't a hard job since they were slow in the descent due to the parachutes.

Which made the job easy, even though they did have a risk of being a little slow to fly back for them, if they miss their grabs, which would mean that they would end up falling in the water, even though they could save them with a backflip to go back for them. But it wasn't that easy to grab them on the first go, since the pllaces that the cats were climbing in Metro Speedway, forced the dragons to make hairpin turns to find the cats, and grab the treasures that they dropped when Hunter III shot the treasures out of their arms with his arrows.

Which made it pretty easy for them to miss since they didn't turn hard enough

But the dragons were in a line that was a few feet apart for one of the others to grab the bag if the other dragons couldn't grab the bag himself, with Spyro leading the line, and with Ember in the last part of the line, to catch the loot for the Mayor when Spyro, and Flame misses.

Which did happen a few times, but not a whole lot as they all kept on grabbing the other loot bags after Hunter III keeps on shooting the cat Burglars for them. With Spyro getting nearly equal amounts of loot that Flame has, while Ember had at least four. Which showed just how well Spyro, and Flame were working together in catching the loot.

They could've shot out their fire balls against them, but Hunter III had the whole thing covered already. So they felt that their only thing to do is to grab the loot, and watch as the rest of the cat burglars gets arrested by the Metro police while they fly overhead.

That's what they get for working for Ripto after all.

Meanwhile, as they did that, Elora, and Cynder, were still standing on the buildings as they kept on the look out for the burglars to expose to the dragons and Hunter III. As they did, Cynder made conversation with Elora.

"So what was it like to grow up in Fracture Hills? If you don't mind me asking." Cynder asked.

"It wasn't bad in the slightest. Especially since I had friends that I was raised alongside, both male and female, that was pretty fun to be around. Especially seeing the occasional clumsiness of the males that was humorous." Elora said. "Not only that, but all of them were nice Fauns, and Satyrs. I'm sure they'll like you guys."

"That's assuring. Especially when we help save their Realm. And did you mention that Magma Cone is also where the Fauns live?' Cynder asked.

"Yep. But Fracture Hills is my home. I know I was born there when I was found by the other Fauns, and Satyrs when I was a baby. And they raised me there, ever since." Elora said.

Cynder was proud of her for having such a life. Even if he did wish that she had that sort of upbringing herself, when she was born as a Magic Crafter. And when her own parents vanished. But it was in the past now. And she wasn't envious of Elora for having that life in the Fracture Hills. Having friends and what not.

She even felt that she could relate with Elora on the lack of parents thing, in that they're still out there. And they have yet to be found, and met again, just like her own parents, and Spyro's. She hoped that even Elora can eventually meet her own parents as well. (Or if they're dead, then she hopes that it won't end up ruining Elora when she hears the news.)

Then she thought about how different Elora was to the other Fauns, according to her. "What makes you different from them, by the way? If you don't mind me asking."

"Being honest, other than my fur color, my lack of antlers, my tail, and the fact that I was adopted by them in Fracture Hills, I really don't know. I did feel occasionally feel curious about myself, and where I come from, while growing up, but I didn't try to search for answers. Nothing even provoked me into doing so throughout my life of growing up to this age." She said.

Cynder had to admit, she was slightly surprised that unlike herself, Elora didn't feel like the black sheep of the Fauns in Fracture Hills. (And having no darkness in her own magic, if she had any, might've helped.)

"You must've had quite a life of growing up in Fracture Hills. You had good friends by your side, a father figure who raised you well alongside your friends, and probably a boyfriend of your own?" She asked the last part.

Which had Elora blushing at that. "Being honest, I never really got myself a boyfriend. Don't get me wrong, I am different from the other Fauns of Fracture Hills, but none of them thought of me as 'freaky' because of it. I even had some of the male Fauns that tried to get me to hook up with them. But they weren't the ones for me."

"So in other words, they weren't your type." Cynder said, smiling humorously.

"Yeah. Let's go with that." Elora then said, smiling back at her.

"Well, who could be the lucky Faun that might be your type then? Don't worry, I promise to keep it secret." Cynder said, feeling like engaging in some talk about boys.

Elora ended up blushing again as she wondered what to tell her. She could pretend that she loves the Fauns from Magma Cone, but for some reason, she feels that Cynder deserved to know. "Well… let's just say, he's cute, from an unknown land, and… purple."

"There are purple colored Fauns in Avalar?" Cynder asked, imagining what a Faun like Elora, looks like as a male, with purple fur. "Well, I'm sure that you can impress him once Ripto's out of the picture. Maybe tell him that you're one of the leaders of Avalar who defeated him? I'm sure that he'd be impressed enough to-" Cynder said to Elora. Only to then stop when she had a sudden thought.

What if, Elora wasn't referring to a purple 'Faun' that she hinted at, but rather the purple dragon that she knows and loves. Being Spyro.

At that thought, she had some doubts, since Elora should also know that Spyro was taken already, and that she's his girlfriend. But she also got surprised, as the love from Elora for Spyro was out of left field, if it was true.

"Wait… so what you're saying, is that… S-Spyro is y-your type?" Cynder asked.

Elora nodded a bit shamefully at that. "Yes. I-I love him too… as much as y-you do." She admitted.

To say Cynder was shocked would be a slight understatement. She didn't expect that a Faun like Elora would have love for Spyro, just as much as she herself does. And that is regardless of the fact that she was his girlfriend first.

And Cynder initially felt jealousy towards Elora, for what she said about loving Spyro as well, when she ended up realizing something.

Elora did love Spyro, and yet, she didn't make a move towards him. Which could be, cause Cynder was usually nearby when Elora was near Spyro, (Other than when they separated in Aquaria Towers, for Spyro to save Elora when she could've drowned.) and the rest of the Quartet, as they had yet to switch partners for the next worlds that they're going to, but it could also be, because Elora was being nice to Cynder, and was ensuring that she won't take him from her, since she should know that Cynder already has Spyro.

And Elora was acknowledging that fact, when she saw how close Cynder was to him. Which would be why she didn't try to make a move on him, and instead, kept herself behaving like a companion of theirs.

Which is when Cynder ended up giving her a look of… sympathy.

"How long did you have that feeling?" She asked.

"Since you guys agreed to save Avalar, especially Spyro, I started to love you guys like friends. But for Spyro, my feelings started to grow, probably around Aquaria Towers when I got hurt there." Elora said.

Cynder cringed at the memory. Seeing Elora back in Aquaria Towers, underwater, with a crack in her helmet, was a scary sight. And if they weren't in the sixth tower, that was in the last area that was close to the first area of the Realm, where the exit Portal was, she could've drowned. So it was nice that she made it there, for her air.

Which was a relief for the Quartet, since they were fond of Elora, due to her nice nature.

"But… I remembered you guys telling me back in Summer Forest, that you were his lover. And I knew that it'd be selfish of me to try to make him love me too. Which is why I didn't really bother in attempting to make a move on him. Especially when around you. It's usually a bad idea to do it." Elora said. Even though she remembered blowing Spyro a kiss while their back was turned, back when they accidentally saw her in the bath. And she admits, she's relieved that Cynder didn't notice it.

"And I'm… pretty relieved that you didn't do that. But… are you sure that no Faun seems to catch your fancy?"

"I'm definitely sure. S-so far at least." Elora said, currently hesitant to tell Cynder that she might be fancying her too. Since they're both girls, and it'd be unusual to Cynder's eyes. "I have to admit, you are incredibly lucky to have him, considering that he happens to be nice to you. As well as adorable looking."

"Can't argue with that last part." Cynder said, dreamily imagining herself with Spyro in Dragon Shores. Where they could be dating again, shooting targets, going in bumper cars, and even going through the haunted house that was gonna be opening up, and that they were gonna go to, when they got sent to Avalar instead.

And she imagined herself with Spyro on the beach, romantically cuddling together, and even nuzzling with each other as they watch the sunset.

And Elora was there too, joining in on the nuzzling, and kisses.

"Wait! Did I just think that?" Cynder thought in confusion. After all, she already has Spyro, and Elora is just a great companion of theirs that is helping them get back to the Dragon Worlds. So she couldn't have at least something for Elora, (Other than friendship.) as she got back to reality.

"But what now? Are you probably gonna go back to finding love with a Faun, and hope that he'll be your type?" Cynder asked.

"Possibly. Even though… well… they also have… um… and that's what I could do too… why don't I tell you about them once we get to Fracture Hills, and Magma Cone." Elora said with a blush, feeling like she could tell them once they get there.

Cynder decided to nod in response, accepting that she could wait for the answer when she, and the rest of the Quartet gets there.

"But the Point that I'm trying to make though, is that I love him too, but I feel that it'd be so mean of me to take him from you. So… I just want to say, that I don't plan on taking him from you, regardless of my love for him. Besides, I feel that our friendship is just as valuable to me, as his love. And I'd rather keep it, than sacrifice it for him."

Cynder felt touched at what she said. She confessed her love for him to her, and yet she's letting Cynder have him instead of herself. "I have to admit. That's incredibly kind of you to do that, Elora."

"Why thank you. I wanna know though. Are w-we still friends?" Elora asked with a slight stutter, hoping that she didn't ruin her friendship with Cynder when she confessed.

"Well, you didn't do anything with him that would provoke my wrath, so yeah. We're still friends." Cynder said, shrugging.

Elora was relieved to hear that. Considering that she was also fond of Cynder, almost as much as she's fond of Spyro. And even though she hopes that she may have one of 'those' like the other Fauns have with each other, she'd rather make sure that they're okay with it too.

Then Cynder suddenly thought about the bath time that she, and Spyro caught her in. "Sorry if I'm asking a weird question, but do you remember when we accidentally saw you in the b-bath back in S-Summer Forest?"

Elora nodded, with an amused smile. After all, how could she forget that accident, considering that it was just them that saw her that way, and not the Fauns.

"W-When you told us that we were lucky that we were not the male Fauns, or Hunter, how could you react if it was a female Faun?" She asked.

Elora ended up shrugging at the question. "I wouldn't really care. Try not to tell anybody else this, unless if you want to tell just your three friends, that is, but I bathed with the female Fauns before, in the baths of Fracture Hills, or in the springs of Magma Cone."

"Really? So that must mean that you probably wouldn't feel bothered being seen in your birthday suit by them?" Cynder asked, surprised.

"Pretty much. In fact, I wouldn't really mind, if you, and Ember decide to take one with me one day. We're all girls after all." Elora said casually. "We do draw a line at being grabby though, so we usually try not to get too intimate with each other if some of us gets uncomfortable for such a thing." Elora then said.

'Ah." Cynder said, feeling relieved at such a line being drawn. After all, there were some perverts that she knew of, and not all of them were male dragons. (Particularly with the Beast Makers.)

So just in case that she, or Ember ends up bathing with Elora, they're making sure, not to get to close with Elora in an uncomfortable way.

For now though, they were watching the Quartet, and Hunter III as they were able to grab all of the loot, and with not a single one hitting the water in the Metro river, or the sea, as the cat burglars were all arrested and taken away.

And the Mayor was happy to see that. "Weel done, all o' ye! ye've really' taught those crooks a lesson! All I a've to give is this Orb. A Fairy gave this tae me." The Mayor said as he gave the Quartet, and Hunter III an Orb in his possession.

Thus, the Speedway realm was fully completed, And it seemed to them that they are now ready to enter the Manor of Autumn Plains, where there would be more Realm Portals to enter. Including the one that leads to Fracture hills.

As the celebration for the job well done was ongoing, Elora ended up talking to Hunter III. "I didn't think that the village would send someone like you to assist us in our fight against Ripto, but thank you for the assistance." Elora said, giving Hunter III a bow.

"It was no problem. It was something that I needed to do, to help in our fight against him. Just so that I'll make up for my nephew's mistake." Hunter III said.

"Speaking of whom? Where is he?" Elora asked, hopeful that Hunter IV is still alive, despite his rivalry with the dragons.

"He's still alive. He's probably in the middle of his brooding though, considering what he's about to read." Hunter III said somberly.

Something that had Elora concerned. "What do you mean by what he's about to read? Is it a message for him?"

"Yes. And it's something that had to be done. He needed to be humbled after all." He said, before explaining to Elora about what's happening to Hunter.


Meanwhile…

Back in Autumn Plains, on the Manor's roof, Hunter IV, a.k.a Gunther, was waking up from his unconsciousness. He wondered why he was on the Manor of the Autumn Plains when he felt pain on his head.

"Ow. What happened to me?" He wondered as he tried to remember what happened to himself when he was knocked unconscious.

That's when it hit him. "Of course! I was fighting my uncle, when I lost to him. *Groan* No surprise there." He said to himself, as he was both unsurprised, and dismayed at his loss to his uncle in sword fighting. But he swears that he's doing better than his last attempts.

Just as he then thought about what he was going to do now that he was back in Autumn Plains, and now that his uncle seems to be gone, he ended up noticing a closed scroll that was next to him. Which looked like it was from the village.

"No doubt Uncle Hunter left it here for me to read it. I hope it isn't what I think it is." He thought to himself, hoping that the message that he's about to read isn't going to end up giving him the bad news that he didn't want to hear.

Reality however, gave him karma, as he read the message.

"Dear Nephew.

If you're reading this, then you might be wondering if what you've been told is true. Well, it is with a heavy heart, that it is what you think it is, and what you hope it isn't.

But the other members of the chieftain council has made their choice, and they have agreed on a suitable punishment that befits you, for what you've done.

Gunther, you are hereby, Banished from the Prowlus clan of Cheetah's, and from your village home in the Summer Forest, for bringing Avalar's biggest threat to this World, and for your lack of support for the saviors of the Summer Forest, and Avalar's upcoming heroes, in those Four Brave Dragons. Especially, since they happen to be in the middle of saving this World from that dark sorcerer, while you try to take their glory that you don't deserve at this point.

I humbly apologize for what has happened to you, but you've brought this on yourself. I merely hope, that you may make this your guide to atonement, and to show Avalar your true capabilities as the warrior Cheetah, that you are meant to be, instead of the Cheetah, that you are now.

May we meet again, when you have seen, and understood the consequences your failures.

Sincerely Hunter III."

The message said, as Hunter IV was looking on in shock, then horror, before going through grief.

"This is a joke right? This has to be a joke. Uncle Hunter is usually too serious, and isn't much of a comedian. So if this is his idea of humor, then he might need some lessons on that." Hunter IV said to himself.

But then he knew that his uncle us usually a serious Cheetah warrior from his clan, and he wouldn't really joke like this. Which had him feeling sadness and anger at the fact that this has happened to him.

And it's his fault that this happened as he saw his tears leak onto the grass after a few minutes of processing the news.

"Which means… that he did it. He let them exile me out of my home. And… he let my banishment happen. All because of my mistake… in sending him here." Hunter IV then said, before hammering his fist on the grass in his grief.

"DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT" He then yelled out in utter grief into the sky of Autumn Plains, as he felt his world crashing down around him.

After all, he lived well with his clan in Avalar, during his time of growing up. And he trained in Archery, feeling that he could not only show himself as talented with a bow, but to also impress, and make his adopted parents proud of him.

But at this point, it was seeming like it was an impossibility to do such, since he has been banished. And now he has to earn his place back into the clan in order to make his parents proud of him again.

But how can he do that?

That was the biggest question in his mind that he had to find an answer to, once he was done with his minutes of grieving at what happened to himself.

"How can I win back my place in the Clan? How can I make my parents proud of me, despite probably feeling disappointed in me for what I've done, that caused my banishment? What can I do now?" He thought as he sat down on the ground, brooding about what had happened to him.

It seemed that Hunter was learning a harsh lesson from his people. And with the benefit of hindsight, he felt that he deserved this punishment, especially considering the rivalry he had with the Quartet, when they tried to merely save Avalar together with Elora, from Ripto.

One thing's for sure however, is that he was now more determined to prove himself to Avalar, and his people, that he was better then they think he is. Does he plan to beat Ripto to prove himself to his uncle, and the others in his clan? And could he bury the hatchet with the Four Brave Dragons?

Only time will tell.


And done.

Here's another chapter in the FBD series that is released. I hope you guys enjoy it.

And to let you guys know, Elora originally had something more to confess out, but I decided to save it for Fracture Hills.

And of course, what is Hunter going to do, now that he 'has been banished' from his clan? We're gonna have to wait and see.

Finally, one more thing.

I hope that you enjoyed the chapter,

please give constructive criticism, just don't be rude,

do not forget to read and review,

and once again, Spyro the dragon is created by Insomniac games, and is currently owned by Activision, and toys for bob. Please support the official releases.

Theodore the Poet signing off.
