Gaul fell on the ground.
"You two have done an incredible job. But… But… But…" Gaul said.
Then Gaul got back up and Spyro and Whirlwind were shocked.
"But you haven't succeeded yet!" Gaul said.
Then Gaul attacked Spyro and Whirlwind with his staff, sending Spyro and Whirlwind flying in the air and then landing in the middle of the first half of the Throne Arena.
Then Spyro and Whirlwind stood up.
"Augh." Whirlwind said.
"Humph. So foolhardy. You dared to challenge me?! For all the effort in the world to change Whirlwind's Fate…with your puny heart, you had no chance of winning from the start!" Gaul said.
"Ugh… Gaul is truly tough." Whirlwind said.
"Don't give up! There's still a way out of this!" Spyro said.
"That's easy for you to say." Whirlwind said.
"Humph. You've done admirable well for those as pitiful as you two. But it's all over now." Gaul said.
Then Gaul lifted his head up.
"This is the end!" Gaul said.
"How can we hit the attack if we don't have our breaths?" Spyro asked.
Then Gaul began charging a powerful attack.
Then, after twenty seconds, Gaul finished charging his powerful attack and then looked at Spyro and Whirlwind.
Then Gaul shot out a Smoke Beam at Spyro and Whirlwind.
Then Spyro and Whirlwind screamed.
But before the Smoke Beam could hit Spyro and Whirlwind, five someones shot out an Ice Ball, an Electric Ball, a Fire Ball, a Grass Ball, and Water Ball at it, reflecting the Smoke Beam back at Gaul.
"Gwah!" Gaul said.
"Who did that?" Gaul asked.
There was no answer.
"No matter. Now there's only one other fate for Whirlwind if she won't return to the Dark Master's side and that is her death!" Gaul said.
"Now, I will kill Whirlwind!" Gaul said.
Then Gaul lifted his head up.
Then Gaul began charging a powerful attack.
Then, after twenty seconds, Gaul finished charging his powerful attack and then looked at Whirlwind.
Then Gaul shot out a Gas Beam at Whirlwind but Spyro intervened and shielded Whirlwind which sent Spyro flying and hitting the wall and then landing on the ground.
"Spyro!" Whirlwind said, getting worried for him.
"So, you shielded Whirlwind, Spyro? That's taken a heavy toll on you! Usually, I will end for you shielding Whirlwind but this time I will do something different and that is killing Whirlwind while you are weak." Gaul said.
Then Gaul looked at Whirlwind.
"Now, this time, I will kill you!" Gaul said.
Then Gaul lifted his head up.
Then Gaul began charging a powerful attack.
Then, after twenty seconds, Gaul finished charging a powerful attack and then looked at Whirlwind.
Then Gaul shot out a Gas Beam.
Then Spyro got back up.
Then Whirlwind screamed.
But before the Gas Beam could hit Whirlwind, five someones shot out an Ice Ball, an Electric Ball, a Fire Ball, a Grass Ball, and Water Ball at it, reflecting the Gas Beam back at Gaul.
"Gwah!" Gaul said.
"Who did that?!" Gaul asked.
There was no answer.
"No matter. This time, I will really kill you, Whirlwind!" Gaul said.
Then Gaul swung his staff but Spyro jumped off the ground and shielded Whirlwind, taking the hit meant for her and then landed on the ground beside Whirlwind on her left side.
"Spyro! Are you okay?" Whirlwind asked, getting worried for him again.
"I'm fine. Thanks for asking, Whirlwind." Spyro said.
"You're welcome, Spyro." Whirlwind said.
Then Spyro got up.
"So you shielded Whirlwind again, Spyro?! That's taken a heavy toll on you! Now, this time, I will kill the two of you!" Gaul said.
Then, when Gaul was about to finish off Spyro and Whirlwind, five someones shot out an Ice Ball, an Electric Ball, a Fire Ball, a Grass Ball, and a Water Ball and they all hit Gaul, preventing him from doing anything to Spyro and Whirlwind.
"Who did that?! Show yourselves!" Gaul said.
Then Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap flew down and landed on the ground.
Then Spyro and Whirlwind turned around.
"Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap, you're all here!" Spyro said.
"What are they doing here?" Whirlwind asked.
"Yes, that is a good question, Whirlwind, because I wonder what they are doing here too." Spyro said.
"Probably to make you escape this room and leave Whirlwind here!" Sparx said.
"Hmm. I would rather ask them first." Spyro said.
"Good decision, Spyro." Whirlwind said.
Then Spyro and Whirlwind looked at Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap.
"What are you five doing here?" Spyro asked.
"We came to save you and Whirlwind, Spyro." Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap answered.
"What?! But I thought they didn't trust Whirlwind, so why would they come here to save here?! I don't understand it." Sparx said quietly to himself.
"Does this mean that you have taken what I said into consideration?" Spyro asked.
"Yes, Spyro, we did take what you said into consideration, so we forgive Whirlwind for all she's done because it wasn't her fault." Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap said.
"Thanks guys." Whirlwind said.
Then Spyro and Whirlwind turned around.
Then Ronald walked up and stopped beside Spyro on his left side.
Then Cynder walked up and stopped beside Whirlwind on her right side.
Then Sunburn walked up and stopped beside Ronald on his left side.
Then Camo walked up and stopped beside Cynder on her right side.
Then Zap walked up and stopped beside Sunburn on his left side.
"Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap! I should have known! So you all forgiven Whirlwind for all she's done and came to save her and Spyro?" Gaul asked.
"Yes, we did, Gaul!" Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap answered.
"I didn't think that you five will actually forgive Whirlwind, but you were impressive enough to get this far, so let me give a reward for your hard effort." Gaul said.
Then Gaul shot out five dark magic at Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap, disabling their elements, and making them lie.
"Hahahahaha! Foolish creatures! You five shouldn't have come here!" Gaul said.
Then Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap got up.
"We meant what we said earlier and we intend to prove it!" Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap said.
"Very well. Then let's see if your claim is true." Gaul said.
"Apes, defeat the seven of them!" Gaul said.
Then fourteen Big Apes attacked Spyro, Whirlwind, Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap but Spyro, Whirlwind, Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap managed to defeat them.
Then fourteen more Big Apes were about to attack until they were stopped by Gaul.
"Don't touch them! They are mine!" Gaul said.
"So you display some feeble resistance knowing that it's futile?" Gaul asked.
"You expected anything less?" Spyro asked.
"Humph. You leave me no choice. I will simply defeat the seven of you here and then kill the seven of you. It makes no difference to me." Gaul said.
"Here he comes." Whirlwind said.
"Everyone, brace yourselves!" Spyro said.
Then Spyro, Whirlwind, Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap made their angry faces.
"The odds are overwhelmingly stacked against you. How much resistance can you even serve up? Show me!" Gaul said.
The next chapter is a boss battle.
What's going to happen next?
Stay tuned to find out!
Note: Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap make their reappearance here.
