After the raid by Kaos things became more dramatic for Spyro since he was turned into an elf and things have become more complicated. Spyro was inside the Mabu's tower. It was a mess with books and papers everywhere when he entered. Spyro defined him as a scatterbrain but of course he kept that to himself since Creed said he had some clothes for him and that he could figure out what happened to him. So in a way he is grateful.
Spyro was in a bathroom washing himself and trying on the clothes Creed has given him. The Skylander splashed water on his face and stared at his face in the mirror. He could see his blond spiky hair down to his lifeless white eyes but it was pushed out of there line of sight. Spyro sighed and placed his hands up to his head feeling his soft long pointy ears. He felt so different looking into a face he had never seen before and now… it was his face. Spyro looked down at himself looking at his bare chest. It was well built showing a slight pattern of a six pack. Creed said it could be his old strength as a dragon. Spyro wore black shoe like boots and pants covering his entire legs with a gold rim at the bottom and he wore a brown belt to keep it up. The elf walked away from the window towards a wooden door. At the side was a stool with more clothes and he placed them over him. He now wore a black-brownish t-shirt with little rips at the bottom and sleeves. At his neck he tied a face mask (Like Stealth Elf's) and had it down and he also wrapped a black scarf as one of the ends went down his left shoulder. He also wore black gloves (Like Stealth Elf's).
Spyro reached for the doorknob of the door and turned it. As soon as he opened the door and stepped out he instantly stepped in a mess of old soup. He sighed again as he lifted his foot up and brushed the old soup of his foot. He stepped through the crowded mess toward the Mabu mage who was looking through multiple books. Presumably on potions and magic. Spyro finally made it to the mage.
"So any news?" The Skylander asked.
Creed sighed without facing the elf. "Nothing. I can't find anything about transforming spells". Spyro felt great sadness as his ears fell down showing his sadness.
"Are you sure there's nothing that can change me back?"
"I'm sorry but I heard from Kaos it was meant to disintegrate people. But being the idiot he is he added some magic and other chemicals to create this change. Without the formula I won't be able to reverse the effects" Creed responded.
"So if we find this formula we'll be able to change me back?" Spyro said ears poking up with hope.
"Possibly, but other than that I can't do anything else" Creed said placing the book he had in his hand down on the table in front of him. "I can try and search through all my books about these certain things and find something but it will be best if we did have the formula".
"Right then, I'll just find where Kaos is and grab the formula and come back here" Spyro said finding hope to turn back. "Hey what was the book Kaos wanted?"
Creed hesitated and kept his gaze away from Spyro. "Ahh?" Creed said trying to find the right words. "It was a species book".
Spyro stared at him with confusion. "Species book? You mean like creatures and what not?"
"Y-Yes" Creed stuttered.
"Wait can't you get those type of books at any library in skylands?"
"Yes, but this one contained all of the species known in the world"
"So? You can still research them at any library, heck you can just search it up on technology. I came here and turned into an elf just because Kaos had to come here instead of a bookstore in town!" Spyro shouted bringing his face rather close to the short mabu with anger.
Creed brought his hands up in defence. "Look it was important that we kept the book here, if Kaos would've stolen it there would've been trouble".
"Oh come on!" Spyro said turning away throwing his hands in the air. "Why did this have to happen to me?" Spyro sighed and leaned on the wooden table rubbing his blank white eyes in frustration.
"I'm sorry, I truly am and I will try my best to help you out, I promise I'll do everything I can" Creed said patting the angry skylander on the back. Spyro took a deep breathe to remove his frustration and talk normally again.
"So, what now?" He asked.
"We should probably get you sorted by learning how to use your new body properly, then after that you can go out and try and find Kaos" Creed answered walking away.
"Wait Eon said I was going to be here a few days?" Spyro said following him.
"Exactly so they think your here, so does Kaos and they don't know what has happened to you so you can go out in secret and find him" The mage responded.
"Alright but without my dragon abilities I can't do anything when I'm like this" Spyro said looking at his hands seeing only his green fingertips because of his gloves.
"Well if you must know Elves are very skill and fast and since you're one of them I presume that you must have some skill" The Mabu made it to a door and opened it leading to the outside. "Now then let's test it".
"Test it how?" Spyro said closing the door behind him and walking to the center of the field to meet with Creed.
"This way" With that said without warning he summoned a blue ord and threw it at Spyro. The elf flinched for a second and took action by leaning back making the sphere past his face very closely. The ball past him and exploded into a small amount of sparkle dust.
"Hey what was that for?!" Spyro shouted at the mage standing back up straight.
"This is the test" Creed summoned more spheres and threw them all at the Skylander.
With great reflexes Spyro dodged them all jumping left and right and rolling on the ground making it closer to the mage. Creed concentrated his powers and sent three balls of magic towards the elf. Based on instinct Spyro jumped up in the air spinning out of the line the balls of magic were going. Creed was surprised and sent more of them faster towards the target. Spyro was in complete focus and stared at the orbs. Time seemed to have slowed and everything looked frozen as he stared at the incoming attacks. Eyes squinting in concentration and time started to go back to normal. With great speed Spyro dodged them all professionally like he was used to this. Spyro jumped in the air again and kicked one of the balls back towards the mage and it bursted on contact bursting in dust making the Mabu flinch. Once Creed got his eyes open he could see the face of a specific elf holding a clench fist inline with his face..
"How was that result for your test?" Spyro asked dropping his hand and standing up straight.
"Better than expected" Creed admitted looking surprised. Spyro looked at his hands surprised as well.
"I don't know what happened? Everything just came so sudden and it was like… normal for me" Spyro said confused.
"If this is correct I think everything you have done was based on instinct. Probably because of your physical change and the fact that elves are known for their unique skills" Creed answered looking at the Elf. "Well that's our test done" The mage said walking back towards the tower.
"H-Hey hold on that's it?" Spyro said running up to the Mabu. "No more training on how to get use to this body?"
"Oh there will be more training of course but first let's get you some weapons" Creed said walking back into the messy room of the tower.
"Wait you had weapons this whole time?" Spyro asked walking in.
"Indeed, I have weapons for passing travelers" Spyro looked at Creed confused.
"Travelers? You give weapons to travelers?" Spyro asked.
"Why of course. I do own a shop" The mage said walking into another room.
"In a deserted valley where barely anyone can find you?" The Skylander said following him into the room. The room had containers and displays of weapons, food, and other items.
"Not many customers these days" Creed answered walking to a glass cabinet that had multiple swords in it. He open the cabinet and grabbed a sword that looked like a cutlass. "This would be more suited for you".
Creed passed Spyro the sword and he grabbed it and began examining the blade. The handle was long and circular with red and black colouring wrapped in some sort of yellow string. A round piece of silver metal was connected to both end of the handle that could fit his hand. The sheathe was completely black and when Spyro pulled the blade out it shimmered making a metal ringing sound, the blade was surprisingly thin with a sharp edge. Spyro gripped the handle of the blade as it fit comfortably in the palm of his hand. He gave it a swing and it slipped through the air incredibly well with fantastic speed. Spyro put the blade back in the sheathe and sat it down on a wooden table.
"Not bad" Spyro said still staring at the swords.
"Good because you will be using it from now on" Creed said closing the cabinet. "Now to discuss our plans of action. You should stay here a few days and practice using your new skills, then later you can head out and find Kaos. What do you say?" Spyro nodded.
"Sounds good enough" the blond elf replied picking up the sword. "Let's do this".
(Three days later)
It's been three days since Spyro has been turned into an elf and during that time he has been learning and practicing his new skills. He has mastered the use of his sword in a swashbuckling technique to disarm his foes then strike with very fast speed. Now that Spyro is prepared and competent that he can go out and find Kaos on his own.
Spyro was inside Creeds shop packing small things in the bag Stealth Elf made for him. His sword was attached to his waist on the left for easy access for battle. Spyro finished placing the small amounts of food, water and papers he needed since the bag wasn't big. He could've asked Creed for a bigger one but this is all he needs. Spyro placed the strap of his bag around his neck and then walked off to find Creed then head back to the academy.
The skylander walked into the messy room only to be welcomed by stepping into a disgusting piece of moldy bread.
"How come you live alone and you don't have time to clean this place" Spyro said flicking the blue bread crumbs of his shoes.
"Well I am fairly busy this time around" Creed said standing by a table looking through numerous books.
"Right of course you are" Spyro said sarcastically rolling his eyes. The blond elf walked other to the Mabu mage to look at the books he was reading. "Any luck?"
"No, sorry. I still can't find anything similar to your transformation" Creed said depressed. He dropped the book he was reading then face the young elf. "Do you know what your going to do?"
"Yes. I'm going to head back to Skylander Academy since Kaos usually strikes there then follow him back home. Simple because I thought of it" Spyro said praising himself since he still has his normal personality. "Than find the formula to the potion and come back here to get my scales back".
"Well alright then, let's hope your successful" Creed said walking away towards the outside door. Spyro walked in pursuit and made it outside along with the Mabu. "I'll continue with the work to turn you back to normal, come back anytime".
"Thanks Creed, for all your help" Spyro said extending his green hand.
"No Spyro, allow me to thank you" The Mabu smiled and shook the Elf's hand. Spyro nodded then dropped the hand shake. "One last thing, hold on one second" The Mabu man rushed inside the tower then ran back out holding out a sheet towards Spyro. "Figured you might need this for a bit of cover".
Spyro grab the sheet and it rolled open showing that it was a cloak about his size. The Elf tie the cloak around his neck where his scarf was and lifted the hood over his head. It hid his blond hair and most of his body, the sheathe of his sword sticking out.
"Its awesome thanks" Spyro said.
"No problem, just be safe alright" and with that Spyro gave Creed one last smile than ran off into the cloud cover hopping island to island in pursuit of Kaos.
(Arriving at the Academy)
Spyro eventually made it to the Academy, but to his surprise it turns out not all things were good. The Academy front was covered with ugly greebles of multiple colours. The Skylanders Stealth Elf, Eruptor, Jet-vac, and Pop fizz were all trying to hold them off but were struggling. The Skylanders were backed against the wall while the twenty Greebles all laugh and started swinging there clubs and sticks at them.
"Ah does anyone else see the problem here?" Pop fizz said holding a potion in each hand.
"Yes Pop we all see the problem and we can deal with it" Jet-vac shouted at his teammate.
"Yeah they're just greebles so lets do it" Eruptor said pressing his hands together to look intimidating.
"Yay sure about that loser" A female orange Greeble said laughing as two other greebles holding a bucket full of water. Eruptor flinched, he didn't like water, because he was made out of lava and fire but water did sting when it touched him.
"Okay that might be a problem" Eruptor said looking worried.
"Oh come on guys we can handle this" Stealth elf said to keep her team focused. While this was happening above the wall they were backed against a blue greeble lifted up a large rock and threw it directly down above Stealth Elf. Jet-vac noticed this and tried to help her.
"Stealth Elf! Look out!" The bird shouted rushing towards her but wasn't fast enough.
Stealth heard the warning and looked up to see the rock and hesitated. She was completely still as her eyes only laid on the stone getting bigger and closer. She felt the wind breeze across her soft skin and then her life flashed before her eyes. A cloak figure appeared out of nowhere with a sword of somesort and slashed at the rock. The rock split in two and fell on either side of Stealth Elf stoked to still be alive. The cloak figure landed down on the ground gracefully in a crouch sword in his right hand. The silver blade was thin but had a sharp edge but it's width wasn't that wide and the end appeared to be on a curve, indicating it was a cutlass. The hilt was grasp firmly by the figure as a round silver metal covered a part of the hand like what you find on many swords. The figure stood up straight holding the blade of his sword across his chest prepared to strike if necessary.
"Now I'm only going to say this once. Stand down" The cloak figure said taking everyone by surprise the Skylanders since his voice sounds similar to Spyro.
"Get lost loser, you're no Skylander you can't stop us" The same female greeble said, presumably the leader. The figure ignored the greeble and paid attention to the Skylanders behind him.
"Is anyone hurt?" He asked taking them by surprise.
"Y-Yeah we're fine" Stealth Elf stuttered by his presence.
"Good, now relax while I deal with these things" The cloaked figure said bringing his sword down to his side.
"Things! Did you just call us 'things'" The Leader Greeble shouted outraged.
"This is our job, stand down and let us deal with this" Jet-vac said trying to take command.
"Don't worry and lay an egg, I know what I'm doing" The cloak figure said walking towards the group of Greebles leaving the bird in the dirt.
"Don't think you can beat us, we outnumber you" The leader greeble continued as the figure continued to walk towards her. "So save the embarrassment and just-"
In a flash the Cloak figure disappeared and a rush of wind past the stunned female and the figure reappeared further away his stance just look liked he struck someone.
"Hah what was that?" A male greeble said laughing not noticing the stunned female. The greeble beside the laughing male poked his shoulder and pointed in the direction of the stunned one. The female without warning fell to the ground knocked out cold. Everyone in the area averted their eyes towards the figure stunned by his speed. The cloaked figure stood up and turned to face the frightened greebles and removed his cloak.
There were gasps everywhere and Stealth Elf couldn't help but blush at the sight. It was another elf but with blond spiky hair, a black scarf waving in the wind and a face mask covered his mouth like Stealth Elf's. He wore a worn out black shirt, pants, boots and gloves like hers. His gaze was intense as he studied his opponents carefully.
Spyro took one step forward and ran with great speed bringing up a dust trail and ran past a group of greebles and all of them fell to the ground. The elf jumped and climb up the wall to meet the one who threw the rock at Stealth Elf and knock his feet of from under him and kick him down with the rest of his kind. Spyro jumped off the wall and landed in the center with the several other greebles. One of the ugly critters ran up two hand swinging a club in his direction but his focus was to the extreme and he noticed this. Swinging his sword with great elegance knocking the club out of the greebles grasp and then kicked him in the stomach sending him back. Two more greebles ran up to him but he used his legs to kick their legs from underneath them making them fall face first. Another greeble came and swung a plank of wood at him from above. Spyro responded by swinging his sword in its direction deflecting it. The attack came again but lower and Spyro swung his sword so the tip was nearly on the ground and contacted with the plank of wood. Spyro flicked his sword up cutting the greebles hand making him drop the plank of wood on the ground leaving him open to spyro and he punch him in the face knocking him out.
Stealth Elf watched in awe as the elf strike and attack with elegance and pulling many fencing poses. His posture and speed was a sight to behold as his concentration was incredible that he could take this many opponents at once. It almost reminded her of a certain purple dragon but why was he so similar to him.
Spyro finished up the last of the greebles but only one remained. Anger was easily shown on his orange face and he rushed forward with a club in hand. Spyro blocked the attack that was given from the greeble and pushed back swinging his swords in many directions. The Greeble went for another swing but Spyro jumped forward and landed behind the greeble. The ugly critter began to turn but the wooden club started to fall apart showing several sword gashes in the wood. Now that the greebles weapon was destroyed Spyro brought his sword up the point of the blade centimeters from the greebles face.
"You know what's good for you" Spyro said to the terrified greeble. "Grab your pals and leave and don't even think about coming back". The greeble nodded and grab some of his friends and began dragging them. The blond elf stood and watched as the lone greeble grabbed the last of his friends and then he was gone.
Spyro let out a breath of air and relax. He returned his sword back in it's sheathe and turned to face the Skylanders. "Is everyone still okay?"
"Yes, thanks to you" Jet-vac said walking towards the elf. "I must say I'm impressed by your skill, I haven't seen you around these parts. Who are-"
"That was incredible!" Stealth Elf shouted taking everybody by surprise. She ran up to Spyro who flinched. "Where did you learn those skills?"
Spyro hesitated, he wasn't expecting to be with friends but at least they don't know its him. The elf then came up with a lie. "I read and study a lot by finding books that have to do with sword techniques and train" Spyro said as the lie slipped out easily as he brought his face mask down.
"Awesome. M-my n-n-name i-is S-Stealth Elf" She stuttered confusing Spyro. Spyro wondered why she was acting this way, she was always calm not this excited.
"Yeah I know that" Spyro said and realized his mistake.
"You have?" The female elf asked.
"Aah yes, I have heard a lot about you and your team" Spyro said fixing the situation. "To be honest I am quite a fan".
"R-really?" Stealth Elf said her heart giving a loud beat. She never felt this way to anyone, but there was something about this person that made her blush. "What's your name?"
Spyro mentally slapped himself for not thinking of this earlier. Name, all he needed was a name. He couldn't say Spyro because they would get suspicious. "Ahh its… um… Sp" He struggled to find the words, he looked down at his sword and something just flicked. "My name is Spence Edgeblade".
"That's a nice name" She said smiling at him. Spyro liked it when Stealth smiled as he couldn't but feel it fill him with joy.
"Whoa someone's obsessed" Eruptor said breaking the conversation between the two elves.
Stealth Elf blushed even more making her light green skin quite dark. She turned to face the lava creature. "I am not obsessed I'm just thanking him. By the way I've never seen an elf use a skill like that?"
"Yeah in all my time I've never seen any skill like that before anywhere" Jet-vac said which took both elves by surprise. Jet-vac knew many things but the fact that he never seen a sword skill like Spyro made him nervous. "What was that?"
"Ahh it was Swashbuckling, a good close combat sword technique" Spyro answered.
"Well it was awesome Spence" Stealth Elf said smiling back at him.
"Yeah I guess it is" Spyro said sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.
"Hey lad why are you here?" Jet-vac said.
"Oh I'm actually here on… ahhh? Vacation" Spyro responded knowing how stupid it sounds. "I thought I could use a break from all the training I've been doing".
"Cool, so you hanging around here?" Pop fizz asked jumping up on Eruptor's head.
"I don't see why not" the blond elf replied knowing he was only here for Kaos.
"Well then why don't we hang out, I can show you around" Stealth Elf suggested to him. Spyro laughed in his head, he'll do anything to hang out with Stealth Elf, even when he was a dragon.
"That sounds great" Spyro said making Stealth Elf heart skip a beat. She nodded and she and her group walked off with their new friend Spence following behind and he thought to himself. 'Perhaps becoming an elf wasn't so bad afterall'.
Right thats chapter 2, the swashbuckling and Spyro's name were thought of by Brave Kid so thank him for great idea. Please review if you like to, it would be great to read them from Skylander fans. Well thank you for reading and now its onto the creation of chapter 3.
