Welcome to my fourth chapter of my Spyro fan fic. I'm sorry it's taken so long to update. I've just not been feeling like writing for a while. Please enjoy this chapter.

Chapter 4: Rescuing Spyro.

Cynder, Shade, Elder, and Yang awoke, and saw that the sun had set. This was the perfect time to break in. As Cynder shook the tiredness off of her she looked over at the others. She could see that ready to go, and started walking towards the door of the temple.

She cracked open the front door a bit and looked around. Everyone in the town was asleep, so they didn't have to worry about the citizens seeing them, and maybe the guards wouldn't be patrolling. Cynder stepped out into the street. She looked around and could see some buildings destroyed, empty, and just devastated since Inu took over the city. Cynder stepped aside as Elder, Shade, and Yang walked behind her.

Elder took the lead and said, "Follow me. I know the way to the castle," and with saying that he took off to the north. Cynder, Shade, and Yang followed behind.

They traveled for a while. They had to duck in and out of alley ways, since not all the guards were sleeping. The closer they got to the castle the more guards that were patrolling. Cynder looked up at the gate and saw six guards standing in front of it, and two guards were standing near the right and left walls. Elder lead them from the alley way in front of the castle, and as they sneak through the dark the reached the hidden entrance. Two guards were standing outside the entrance.

"Ready Yang?" Cynder asked her son.

"As ready as I'm going to be," Yang replied.

"Okay," Cynder said as she hugged him, "Be safe."

"You too mother."

Yang just ran out of there hiding place and said to the guards, "Here I am. Come get me."

"HALT!," but Yang didn't, as he ran away. The guards started chasing him, and left the door completely unguarded.

Shade, Cynder, and Elder entered the passageway. They walked for a while, until Shade and Cynder saw an opening in the roof.

"There it is. That's the opening to get into the castle," Elder said

"It's kinda small isn't it?" Cynder asked.

"It is. That's why I picked y'all two. Not only can y'all fight, but your small enough to fit through the opening. Also Cynder I know you are the only one who will be able to get through to Spyro and break him out of his dark mode."

"I see," Cynder said as she looked at Elder.

"Just remember that he is stronger than you, but his mind has been tainted, so he isn't thinking straight. Also if you could you need to find the crystal that they used to control him. So I can study it and changed it to a purifying crystal. They maybe we can use it on the shadow dragons to turn them good."

"Understood," Cynder said.

"Good. Now go. You have a long journey ahead of you. Be careful and I will see you on the outside of the castle."

Cynder just nodded and looked at Shade and asked, "Ready?"

"Yes," Shade replied.

Shade and Cynder opened the hatch in the roof, and started flying up. They slowly ascended and looked around. No guards were running around, so Shade and Cynder landed in the hallway. They were pretty far away from the training grounds. Cynder knew that that's where Spyro would be.

They walked down the hallway, and Cynder could hear someone talking.

They first voice was a male as he said, "Why are we guarding down here? It's not like anyone his going to come in down here. Only dragoness can get in the hatch to the pathway."

The second one talked and Cynder could tell that it was a female. She said, "I don't know either, but this is where Inu wanted us, and I don't want him to get mad at us."

"Agreed" the dragon said, "I guess it's time to get back to patrolling. I'll see you later honey."

Cynder peaked around the corner and could see them nuzzling against each other. They dragon was a bright blue dragon with a white underbelly. The dragoness was a dull red color, with a while underbelly. They looked like they were crying, because it seemed like they were doing this against their will.

The dragoness turned around and started walking towards Cynder and Shade. She reached the corner that Cynder was at, and started to turn when she was jumped by Cynder. She tried to scream for her mate, but Cynder put her paw over the mouth of the dragoness.

"We aren't going to hurt you. You seem like you are a good dragon. How would you like to come with us and help us?" Cynder said.

She thought about it a bit, and said "You are right. I'm sick of this patrolling. Let me get my husband."

"Okay," Cynder said as she let the dragoness go. She walked over to her husband and said, "I met some dragoness' that could help us out.

"Lead them to me," the dragon said.

She lead him to Cynder and Shade. He saw the two and said, "You must be the two dragons that will help us. Right?"

"Yes. We are going to stop Inu, but first we need to save my husband Spyro. Do you know where he is?"

"Yes. He's in the training grounds. It's through the doors and down four hallways. Then turn to the left. Then down a little more and you will reach the training grounds. A door will block you, so you will have to open it. It's going to be a big wooden door with a fancy design on it."

"Thank you," Cynder said.

"Your welcome."

"Before we leave. What are your names?" Shade asked.

"Mine is Lana," Lana said.

"Mine is Doreen," Doreen said.

"Mine is Shade, and her's is Cynder," Sade said.

"Nice to meet you two. Doreen said.

"Same," Cynder said.

"I have a request. There are two red dragoness. They are brighter red than me. They are twins so they will look exactly the same. I need you to save them. They don't want to be here just like we didn't. Their names are Layla and Kayla," Lana said.

"Understood," Cynder said.

"They will be in the third hallway patrolling. Just watch out, since the other dragons will try to kill you," Doreen said.

"We will," replied Cynder.

"Thank you," Lana said.

"No problem."

Lana and Doreen walked back to the opening of the sewer and watch Cynder and Shade walk through the big open doors. They just smiled while they thought about how they weren't going to be under Inu's control anymore.

Shade and Cynder opened the double wooden doors slowly and peaked out. They couldn't see anyone on the other side, so the opened the doors completely. They walked into the big hallway, and looked around. The hallway was painted black with purple banners hanging from the ceiling. The banners had a picture of a dragon holding a hammer in his mouth.

As they walked down the hallway they could hear some crying going on behind a door. Cynder slowly opened it and saw a dragoness sitting there. Cynder slowly walked into the room, and said to the dragoness, "Hello?"

The dragoness jumped and turned around. She couldn't recognize the dragoness standing in her room. She did asked, "Who are you?"

"My name is Cynder," Cynder replied.

"Cynder... Cynder... WAIT aren't you Yang's mother?"

"Yes I am. Which means you must be Ki?"

"I am. What are you doing here?" Ki asked.

"I'm here to save Spyro, and Yang asked me to save you as well."

"He did. That's sweet of him," Ki said blushing a little.

"Come on. I need you to head to the sewer entrance so we can get you out of here."

"Um... I might not be able to fit,"

"Why no... Oh I see," Cynder was about to say, but she saw a bulge on Ki's stomach and knew what that meant.

"Yeah. You must have guess that I'm pregnant," Ki said with a smile.

"I did. Don't worry once I save Spyro then I will find a way for us to get out of here."

"All right. I'll wait for you," Ki said as she ran out of the room and headed towards the exit. Shade just looked over at Cynder and asked, "How are you going to get her out?"

"Easy. Once we free Spyro. He will use his space power to open the exit up further. Leting us escape unharmed.

"I see. Now let's head to save Spyro."

Cynder nodded and they started walking towards the training grounds. They thought it weird that there was no guards at all in the hallway, so they didn't have to fight.

Cynder and Shade came up on two red dragoness walking around. Cynder walked up to them both and said, "We come in peace. Your friend Lana sent us."

"Lana? Is she okay?"

"She is. We have freed her and she is waiting for us to save Spyro."

"Good luck. Spyro as been training in the dark arts, so he won't' be that easy to beat."

"I sure he won't hurt me," Cynder said.

The two dragoness looked at each other and one said, "Sorry. I need to introduce myself. I'm Layla, and this is my sister Kayla.

They were both red dragons with white underbellies. They wings are orange and they had medium sized horns.

"You two must be identical twins?" Cynder asked.

"We are," Layla and Kyala replied.

"Good. Now if you don't mind waiting my the sewer exit. We are going after Spyro then we will be right on."

"Okay. Good luck and with saying that Layla and Kayla walked out from in front of the training rooms door and down the hallway.

"Well this is it. Are you ready Cynder?" Shade asked.

"As I will ever be," Cynder said.

They threw open the doors and low and behold there was Spyro waiting for them.

"I see you came for me Cynder," Spyro said as he smiled an evil smile.

"Of course I came for you. You didn't think I was going to let you get away from me?" Cynder said.

"Good. Now let us begin."

To be Continued.

Hello everyone. I thank you for reading this chapter, and being so patient on my updates. The next few chapter might be short, since they will be the Spyro fight, escaping Inu's castle, and regrouping. After that I should be starting back on getting longer chapters.

So thank you everyone for the support, and please read and review.

Till next time.
