Welcome everyone to my fifth chapter of my Spyro fan fic. I hope y'all have enjoyed the other four and will enjoy this one. Now onto the chapter.

Chapter 5 Fight for Love

Cynder walked into the training hall with Shade right behind her. As Shade entered the room the doors behind them slammed shut. Cynder heard some wings flap and looked around. She could see Inu come flying down from a ledge overlooking the training grounds.

"Greetings Cynder," Inu said as he smiled, around his neck was a light purple crystal.

"INU! What have you done to Spyro?" Cynder asked with a forceful tone.

"Nothing much. Just taken his good side, and turned him evil."

"Give him back to me," Cynder said as she charged up a fire dash. She then launched herself at Inu, but was blocked my a stone wall. Cynder collided with it, but it didn't hurt that much. She landed on the ground, and looked over at Spyro. He was smiling like he enjoyed hurting Cynder.

"Nice try beauty, but you won't be able to hurt me as long as I have your mate under my control," Inu said with a laugh.

Cynder was annoyed and looked over at Spyro. She only had once choice of action left and it was to fight Spyro.

"I know you don't want to fight your mate, but guess what. I don't care, now if you want to save him you have to beat him. Then get this crystal and hang it around his neck, but I don't see that happening anytime soon," Inu said as he flew over to a little hook behind Spyro and placed the crystal around it. He then turned back towards Cynder and laughed.

"I will get the crystal," Cynder said.

"Good luck. You have to go through me," Spyro said with a evil smile.

Inu just laughed more and flew back up to the balcony. He then turned around and left through the doors, and as they shut Cynder could see Spyro get ready to attack.

"I don't want to fight you Spyro," Cynder said.

"Too bad. we're fighting," Spyro said as he launched a fire ball at Cynder's direction. Cynder summoned a wall of water up, and has the fireball hit the water it created a steam cloud which completely cut Cynder's vision off. She lost sight of Spyro, until she felt something clamp onto her tail..

She was able to look back and noticed Spyro had bit onto her tail and picked her up in the air. He then started swinging her around in circles. He let go of her and Cynder was sent flying through the air; however, instead of hitting the wall. Cynder opened her wings and caught herself in mid air. She just hovered there, and launched stones at Spyro.

Spyro smiled and summoned a rock shield to block Cynder's attack. He then lowered it and looked around. He couldn't see Cynder anywhere, until he looked down at his shadow. He could see something moving in it, and jumped up just before Cynder jumped out of the shadow and tried to grab Spyro. He landed a few feet away from her, and summoned his ice power. He released the power onto the ground and froze it solid. The entire area of the training ground was covered in ice, which made for a very slippery surface for Cynder. Spyro then took advantage of it, and started to skate around. Cynder started to slip, and so she didn't notice Spyro get close to her.

Cynder was hit straight on the side of her maw with Spyro's attack. She slid backwards thanks to the attack, and could feel something warm run down her face. She put her paw up, and felt a long cut on her cheek.

"I got you Cynder," Spyro said with a laugh.

"Why are we fighting Spyro? Don't you remember me?"

"Remember what. I don't know you," Spyro said.

Cynder was hurt by his statement, and got ready to attack again. This time she was going to be serious. She breathed fire at Spyro and watched as it traveled towards him and started to melt the ground. Spyro just jumped to the side and smiled; however, he didn't notice a giant rock flying towards him. He realized that Cynder meant to miss, so she could attack with another spell, but it was to late as he dodged right into it, and was sent flying backwards from the impact. Spyro could feel his chest start to hurt, but other than that he was fine.

Cynder then charged out Spyro with her speed, and reached him in no time. She then started to attack him with combos after combos.

Spyro took the hits and saw blood coming from his wounds. He couldn't let her go on anymore, so he charged a dark barrier up, and released the magic. He hit Cynder with it, and it sent her flying backwards. He started to heal himself, but remembered that he wasn't as strong of a healer as Cynder. He looked over at her and could see the wound on her face was closed up; however, she was breathing hard, which told Spyro that she was running low on energy. She may had better healing than Spyro, but he had more strength and stamina then her. Most of it was because he was the legendary purple dragon.

"Not bad," Spyro said as he looked up at Cynder.

"Thank you," Cynder said as she caught her breath.

"Now. No more holding back," Spyro said as he charged up a fire dash. He released it and charged right at Cynder. Cynder didn't have any time to block as she took the full hit from Spyro's attack. She was sent flying backwards and hit the wall hard. She hit the ground in a heap of blood as the burns and the impact that his horns left.

Spyro walked over to her and looked down. He then noticed something not right with her, but was to late. The body disappeared and right beside him stood Cynder with her claws near his neck.

"I win," Cynder said a little exhausted from the fight. The last clone took a lot of her energy, but she didn't dodge the complete attack and could feel the burn take affect on her scales. She cringed as the pain hit her. Spyro took this time and sweeped her feet out from under her with his tail, and Cynder hit the ground hard.

Cynder just looked up at him and was wondering if he was going to finish her off when suddenly something caught her eye. She noticed the crystal hanging on the hook and Spyro was away from it.

Spyro brought his claws down, but only scratched Cynder's tail as she moved to get the crystal. Cynder screamed in her mind has Spyro's claws dug into her tail, and cut the skin.

"Oh no you don't," Spyro said as he dashed at her, but he was a little to late as Cynder got the crystal, then used her time power to slow Spyro down. She then put the crystal around his neck, and watched as an aura surrounded him. She could see the energy from the crystal and the energy from him start to mix together, and flow back into him.

"Spyro? Are you okay?" asked Cynder.

"Yes my love. I'm back to normal thanks to you."

"Good," Cynder said as she released the time magic, and passed out. Spyro was there to catch her as she feel asleep.

"She used a lot of her power to save you," Shade said as she walked over to Spyro and the asleep Cynder.

"I bet she did," Spyro said as she looked at Cynder and smiled.

Suddenly Spyro and Shade her something like alarms sound, and the looked around. They could see shadow dragons starting to converge on them.

"Let's go," Spyro said he threw Cynder on his back, and he ran towards the open door with Shade following closely behind.

"They made it trough the door just as the shut, and Spyro looked at the hallway that was covered with shadow dragons.

"This is going to be tough to get out of here, but we will."

"Agreed."

They ran down the hallway into the awaiting shadow dragons...
