Chapter 9
Gaul grimaced at the sight of the two dragons as they circled around him, "you fools think you can stop me? I am Gaul! The death bringer!" Gaul exclaimed as Spyro stopped circling him, "the death bringer? I'm sorry, but where did you think of that name?" Spyro could'nt help but face-palm, "well, umm...it doesn't matter!" Gaul bellowed as he tried to blast Spyro with the magic inside of his staff, but Spyro was quicker than him, and he ended up getting rammed into the wall by Spyro, "Cyn, now!" Spyro called to her mate to use her electricity breath on Gaul, and she did so. "Argh!" Gaul screeched as he was electrocuted, "I'll kill you both at once!" Gaul threatened as he tried to stab one of them with his staff, "missed" Spyro yawned as he flew inward for an ariel attack, and yanked Gaul's staff out of his hands. "No!" Gaul tried to get to him, but Spyro simply threw the staff down towards Gaul, "ack!" Gaul started choking as the staff was drove deep through his body, "it would seem, Your not as much of a whelpling, as I surmised" Gaul communicated to Spyro before dying of the wound, he was now truly dead, "quick, Cynder, find the others, I need to treat Ember!" Spyro instructed his mate as the black dragoness nodded in response, "now, Ember, I'm gonna try and-" Spyro was cut off as Ember shushed him, "no Spyro, I've been a pain in your side for too long, just let me go..." Ember started to close her eyes, "no! Ember, I won't, no matter how much pain you put me through, I'm not letting you die" Spyro tried to figure out how to heal this much of an extensive wound, "no, Spyro, I've finally seen that your with someone else, I let my tendencies go over the edge, and now...just...stay with Cynder, you deserve her more than me..." Ember's life fade from her eyes as Spyro held her corpse, "so be it..." Spyro sighed and carried her corpse outside the fortress where Cynder and the others had conveniently decided to stay, "no.." Cynder rushed to Spyro and hugged him deeply as he gently lied Ember's corpse on the ground, "I tried, there was nothing I could do" Spyro even showed a slight tear, "I'm just glad you're alive" was all Cynder replied with, "can we go home now, Spyro? I'm tired" Cynder yawned into Spyro's chest, "yes, Cyn, we can, but first..." Spyro dug a little grave for Ember, and rested her corpse underneath the soil, then covered her in more soil, "rest in peace" Spyro muttered as the dragons and the Skylanders went their separate ways, "rest in peace".
