Hey, my dudes, sorry it's been so long, been busy with stuff, Covid-19, digital school, life just gets you, but I've also been busy since I've been writing a long term FNaF AU story on...Wattpad! Which I highly recommend you check out if you're into highschool stories, or heavy emphasis on "Fangle" (And yes, I know the highschool concept is overused, but just work with me here), my profile and name should be the same, or you can just type Spyro x Cynder into the search bar since I released the first three Skylanders books onto Wattpad, and they've somehow made it to the top of the search filter, seriously, people are loving that shit despite it being poorly written and everything, also, chapters 10-14 have been reworked, and are more PG Family friendly, so yeah, enjoy this short and sweet new chapter, huzzah!
Chapter 16: a darker reality
"Gah!" Spyro shot upright as he was pushed back down onto the bed he laid on.
"Easy, young dragon, you've been asleep for quite some time" He looked over to see Ignitus striding up to him.
"Ignitus...What happened?" Spyro asked as the Fire Guardian shook his head.
"I'm afraid I'm not quite sure, you just passed out" Ignitus replied as Spyro sighed. "I remember...darkness, and death, but...it's all a blur..." He trailed off as Ignitus helped him up.
"Well, I suggest you go find Cynder, she's been worried about you all week" Ignitus recommended as Spyro looked up in shock. "What!? A week!?" He exclaimed as Ignitus nodded.
"Unfortunately, that is the case, Young Dragon, and she is very concerned" He explained as Spyro looked at the ground. "Where is she?" He asked as Ignitus pointed to the door.
"I left her with Incendia" As Ignitus said this, Spyro grew more concerned. "Wait...you left her with Incendia? You're positive she isn't like secretly evil or something?" He asked as Ignitus brushed off the comment.
"Now, I believe that your lover is waiting for you on the other side of this door" He gestured with his massive wing for Spyro to exit the nurse's room, and out to the Courtyard. When he exited, he saw Cynder and all of his friends waiting.
"Spyro!" Cynder ran up and hugged him tightly. "Hey Cynder..." Spyro trailed off as his other friends came up to him, Shard seemed the most concerned.
"Spyro, are you alright?" He asked as Spyro smirked and nodded. "Yeah, yeah I'm feeling better" Spyro responded as Shard hugged him, much to Spyro's surprise.
"Well, I'm glad that nothing super bad happened to you" Shard pulled from the hug. "Hey...wheres Incendia?" Spyro asked the other friends as they all seemed to shrug.
"Odd..." Spyro thought to himself as he left the others, much to their confusion, and attempted to find Incendia. He felt something strange was going on, there's no way that Incendia suddenly coming back from the dead couldn't not coincide with him suddenly pass out.
"I need to find her" He didn't even bother to wait for any of his friends.
"Um, did Spyro seem kinda weird?" Terrain asked as Shard agreed and he looked at Spyro, who was walking further away into the Courtyard. "I'm worried about him..." Cynder expressed her concern.
"I'll go after him" Shard was about to follow, but was stopped by Flame. "No, I think he just needs some space" He figured as they let Spyro be.
"Excellent! Everything is going according to plan!" Malefor laughed as Rose stood silently beside him. "Now, we just need our little puppet to execute the rest of the plan" He informed Rose as he left the incantation chamber, however, unaware to him, Rose moved towards the magical viewer, and started using the puppet for her own means, making sure no one was able to see her, and begun to manipulate the being to her will.
Well, that's that, apologies for such a short chapter, as I've said I've been writing on Wattpad and school exists, so yeah, remember to wash your hands and stay safe, people, peace out!
