Spyro was worried about how much Darkness was inside him after the Siege on Skylanders Academy. (roll credits). In saving Dark Spyro, he had endagered himself to being cosumed by the Darkness. The darkness was subsiding, but very slowly. He was worried it might engulf him. While he was a pure being, it didn't stop him from worndering how he would get rid of all the darkness.
He decied he would try to expel the Darkness by using the energy. He tried but it didn't help. He felt like he always had a cramp. His powers were only so much to extract such a powerful darkness and keep it contained. He was afraid what would happen if the Darkness attacked again and if he was in no condition to help. Dark Spyro seemed to pick up on Spyro's mood.
Spyro had moments when he collapsed from the strain. After a 15th occurance on the training track, Dark Spyro spoke to Spyro. "This is enough. You need to rest." he said, "If you keep pushing yourself, then you might not be able to help at all. You need to take a long rest. I will help in your absence. I can handle the Darkness.". And with that, he exited the room.
Spyro went to his room and laid down to rest. Dark Spyro told the others of Spyro's situation. Cynder was worried. She visited Spyro at every chance she could. Spyro put himself into an Eversleep, where he would wake up only when he was cured. The Darkness attacked one or two times, but Dark Spyro kept to his promise. He held off the Darkness's forces.
2 months after Spyro had gone into an Eversleep, he began to stir. He had brief periods where he was able to move. He was happy Dark Spyro had kept his promise. He was feeling much better. The Darkness was half gone. He was able to speak. His friends and family gathered when he was able to awaken, if only for a brief moment or two.
He had Cynder by his side almost all the time. However, one day during a period of awakening, Spyro felt a pain in his side. Everyone crowded around to see. Spyro felt around with his paw and when he held it in front of him he almost fainted. His paw scales were turning blacker then he had ever seen, and small tendrils of it were creeping down his arm like bolts of dark lightning.
He fell asleep afterwards and fell into a dream. He found himself in a blank area where it was a basic desert. He saw something storming in the distance. He saw it coming straight for him. It was a storm of pure black clouds. He tried to run but it was gaining fast. Soon it engulfed him. He saw a massive tornado in the middle and was sucked in.
On the outside, the tendrils of Darkness started to glow and creep across his arm. Cynder shuddered. "What is happening to Spyro?" she asked Dark Spyro. Dark Spyro was, for once, at a loss for information. Cynder decided to watch over him while everyone else checked the Dragon Crystal. They tried for hours and hours but could not find anythig of much use to them.
In the dream, Spyro was watching scenes of dark magic at it's highest point. Meanwhile he was hearing deafening demonic voices. "Give in. Dark is best. You are destined for it.". Spyro tried to shut them out. He was growing weary and was at the brim of giving in. Then a sound, faint at first, called his name. "Spyro. Spyro. Come on Spyro. Spyro!" it called, getting louder every time.
Meanwhile on the outside, the others had still found nothing. The Dark tendrils had reached Spyro's wings. Cynder was very scared Spyro might be lost. She started to tear. She kept saying his name. In the dream, the storm was becoming smaller as the voice became louder and louder. Spyro started to shut out the demon voices. The Demon Voice started to grow fainter.
Cynder didn't notice that the tendrils still somehow spreading even though in the dream the Demon Voice was becoming faint. The Tendrils had sped up and were almost encasing his heart. Spyro's face contorted into an angry expression. In the dream, The storm started to rise again. Cynder couldn't look as the tendrils started to encase his heart.
One of Spyro's pitch black arms reached out and grabbed Cynder's leg. She didn't even care. She closed her eyes. A single tear rolled off and fell on the one spot the darkness had not reached. From the point, the tendrils started to retreat back as though they were repelled by something. Spyro started to regain some of his normal color. His scales a bright purple and his breastplate a light orange.
Cynder looked as Spyro started to have all the dark energy in his hand where it started. The Dark Magic formed a small marble above Spyro's hand. His face relaxed. His paw twitched. He brought his hand up and crushed the marble. Spyro's eyes fluttered open. Cynder looked at him. "Spyro. Is...Is that you?" she asked very cautiosly as she was astounded.
Spyro looked up at her. "I think so. And you are my girlfriend Cynder, unless something changed while I was out." he said in his normal voice. Cynder was so relieved she held him in the most caring hug she had, and Spyro hugged her back. At that point, everyone elseburst in. "Good News!, we found a way to cure..." Dark Spyro said as he burst in but saw Spyro sitting up.
He put the information away for later. Everyone joined in a group hug. Spyro was back to his normal state, and he and Cynder were as close as they ever had been before. They swore to each other that they would never let anyone take the other. If they did, they would never sleep or eat until one found the other. For now, all was well in the Skylands.
