Once the Skylanders have met their new friend Spence, they decided to show him around the Academy. They have been to several places so far and on the way they passed numerous cadets who gave Spence a questioning glare. Spence has noticed them and their glares towards him. He thought that they were just suspicious of the new blond elf or thinking that they thought he was a new cadet. The blond Elf just chose to ignore them and listened to Jet-vac and Stealth Elf talk about the Academy.
Of course he already knew the whole place since he was raised here but he had to act like this was all new to him. He followed at the end of the pack looking from side to side occasionally but when one of them turned their heads around to face he smiled and nodded his head like he was listening. Spence found it quite a struggle to act like someone completely new to this but he didn't want to say the fact that he was actually Spyro. Their friend and a purple dragon. He didn't want the attention and the amount of questions he would get.
The group passed over the islands of the Academy and spotted Hugo running away from a sheep. He will never change his thing with sheep. The group laughed at how Hugo was running, the Mabu was screaming his head off yelling 'Demon!' or 'Get it away!' and his arms were swinging behind him as he ran. Spyro let out a small chuckle as Hugo ran pass the group along with the sheep. The young elf leaned over and picked up the sheep as it 'baaa'. Hugo stopped running and turned to see the sheep in the hands of the elf where it could no longer do harm.
"Aaahh thank you very much." Hugo sighed in relief exhausted from all the running.
"No problem Hugo." Spyro said throwing the sheep in the air and catching it again.
"Wait, you know him Spence?" Stealth Elf asked walking up beside him. Spyro flinched as he realised his mistake, the sheep fell into his hands as he tried to come up with an answer.
"Well I heard of him, Eon's assistant" Spyro said hoping Stealth will buy it.
"Okay that makes sense" the female elf nodded. Spyro chuckled which caught Jet-vac's attention.
"It's good to hear that my reputation precedes me," The Mabu said fixing up his green coat. "You wouldn't happen to be a new Cadet would you?"
"Oh no I'm just passing through" The blond elf said rubbing the back of his head with is hand sheepishly.
"But we're showing him around before he has to leave" Stealth Elf said nudging his arm.
"Oh yes the Skylanders are showing me around the Academy, and they have been most kind towards it" Spyro said. Stealth Elf blushed as he mention them being helpful.
"Well that is just excellent" Hugo said. "Now I better start heading off back to Master Eon, you should come around later on if you like".
With that said and done Hugo ran off in the other direction leaving the Skylanders behind. Spyro sighed in relief now that it was all over and his coverer wasn't blown. Jet-vac continued to keep his eye on the elf and he noticed that Spence's blond spiky hair almost made him have a roguish look.
"Hey Spence?" Eruptor interrupted the moment and the blond elf turned to him. "What do you plan to do with that sheep?"
Spyro looked down at his hands to see that the sheep was still in his grasp munching something in his mouth. He completely forgot about it. Spyro smirked as he thought of an idea.
The blond elf threw the sheep in the air making everyone confused, the sheep started to fall to the ground and Spyro's smirk grew larger. Spyro jumped in the air higher than anyone thought he could shocking everyone. The elf spun and kicked the sheep in the side and it went flying past the islands and landed directly on a island with more sheep.
"Perfect" Spyro said as he landed on the ground. The whole group was stunned at how far the sheep went, it landed at least a few yards away further than anyone could guess. Stealth Elf looked at Spyro and blushed as his blond spiky hair swayed in the wind showing the handsome side of her new friend.
"How did you do that?" Jet-vac asked still in disbelief on how high he could jump and the impressive power in the kick he just showed.
"It just takes a lot of practice" Spyro answered turning back to them. "So shall we continue the tour?"
The hawk nodded and the others followed behind but Spyro noticed that Stealth still had her eyes on him.
"Hey are you alright?" He said waving his hand in front of her face and she snapped out of the trance.
"Oh yeah sorry, it was that it was really impressive" Stealth Elf said turning her head to hide her blush. She felt a hand on her shoulder and her eyes went straight to the figure.
"Thanks I'm sure your just as good though" Spyro said lifting his hand off her shoulder and gave her a warm smile.
Stealth blush only intense as he smiled at her and she could hear her heart beating loudly in her ears. She gave him a nod not trusting her voice and returned the smile. The two walked together to catch up with the rest of the group and Stealth Elf could feel the heat coming from Spyro as they walked closely to each other. The female elf wanted to just grab him and pull him into a hug to feel the great warmth that he had but her mind was still in control and held back the urge.
Sometime has passed and the group of Skylanders and their new friend have made it to the training area. Stealth Elf was describing all of the functions of the simulation that had spikes, swinging axes and other dangerous things young cadets run through. Spyro knew everything about the simulation but he didn't care, he was mainly focused on Stealth Elf and how sweet her voice sounds. He thought it was his improved senses or it was just him.
The rest of the group was sitting down relaxing but Jet-vac kept his eyes on the new elf still having that slight trust issue. Jet-vac saw that Spence was looking out over the simulation as Stealth Elf continued to explain but what he didn't know is that Spence was actually looking at Stealth Elf. One of the perks for not having pupils.
Spyro formally known as Spence just kept staring at Stealth Elf. Of course he didn't show it since his head was facing forward and his face was expressionless but his eyes were averted to where the beautiful blue hair elf stood. He wondered if she had always looked that pretty or is he just imagining things. Spyro was snapped out of his magical trance when Stealth asked him a question.
"So what do you think?" She asked showing off a sweet smile.
"Well I heard of it but it looks incredible in person," He said the lie slipping easily from his mouth. "A lot of work must have gone into making this if it has been useful. I take it this is where you learnt a lot of your skill?" He asked politely.
"Yeah mostly for quick thinking and sudden threats, but it is easy for me since I am a ninja." Stealth replied.
"I guess being an Elf you let your instincts do most of the work" Spyro said.
"Well of course, we are mostly known for our fast speed and skill but some have other intentions." She said remembering a certain undead dark elf. Suddenly an idea popped into Stealth head. "Hey want to spar?"
Spyro looked at her confused. "Spar?"
"Yeah but without weapons and well see who has the best instincts and skill." Spyro thought for a moment until he grabbed the sheath that held his sword and untied it from his belt. He placed it on the ground and removed his cloak and placed it down next to where his sword laid still. Spyro checked that his scarf was still around his neck and walked over to the training spot and turned back to stealth Elf.
"Shall we?" He gestured towards the training area surprising those around them as they did not know what they were doing.
Stealth Elf chuckled and took her blades and placed them on ground. She walked over to where Spyro was and stopped a few feet in front of him. The Skylanders were confused on what the two were doing but didn't intervene. Others who were at the training area such as Trigger Happy, Food Fight and Flashwing saw the two elves and decided to watch what they were about to do.
Spyro and Stealth Elf stared at each and both nodded. Both of them put their hands together and bowed to their opponent and got in a battle stance. The two elf's started to circle around each other waiting for the other to make the first move. Spyro was the first to react as he jumped forward when Stealth least expected it and threw a left jab. The other's gasped at what the blond elf was doing. Stealth Elf barely missed the punch with quick speed and threw her own left hook. Spyro caught it with his right hand and sent his knee into Elf's chest making her stumble backwards one hand one her stomach where she was hit. Stealth Elf kept her eyes on Spence as she tried to calm her breathing since the attack knock the wind out of her.
'He's really is impressive so I need to be extra careful.' She thought to herself as the pain subsided and she got back into a battle stance.
"Good to see you can take a hit, but I think you need to be quicker with that reaction time." Spyro said giving Stealth Elf advice that could help her, but he knew that he barely stands a chance against a professional like Stealth Elf.
"Thanks for the advice, I'll work on that but I think you should worry about yourself." The blue hair elf mocked.
"I'll keep that in mind." Spyro said keeping his focus on his opponent.
In the crowd the Skylanders were all watching the fight take place.
"What on earth do those two think their do'in?" Jet-vac said trying to piece things together.
"Calm down JV their only doing this for practice." Eruptor said trying to ease his bird friend. "Let them be so we can see who wins".
"Fine but if it gets out of hand I'm putting an end to it." With that said Jet-vac kept a close eye of the elves especially Spence.
Back to the fight Stealth Elf ran forward with blinding speed and jumped sending a series of kicks at Spyro's head who blocked all of them. Stealth Elf fell to the ground and crouched and used one of her legs to kick Spyro's feet away making him fall on his back. Stealth went into a handstand and drop the back of her leg down to hit her Opponent. Spyro saw this coming and rolled away as her foot just missed its mark. Spyro stopped rolling and put a lot of strength in his arms and legs springing himself into the air and spinning in the direction he came from. As he made it closer towards Stealth Elf she rolled forward going underneath him as he missed his mark to catch her off guard. Stealth got back on he feet and Turned back towards Spence who was on his feet quicker than her.
Stealth launched a punch in his direction and he knocked it away. A green poof of magic dust made Stealth Elf disappeared and reappeared behind Spyro and launched another punch for the back of his head. Spyro knew she would do this and completely on instinct he spun and grabbed Stealths clenched fist before it made contact. The other elf was surprised but had a plan B. Jumping up her hand still in his grasp her foot went straight into his stomach and she launched herself off of him making her hand slip out of his.
Spyro felt the real pain as he clenched his stomach since he wasn't used to this kind of pain because his scales used to take most of the damage. He was so focused on the pain that Stealth ran towards him and wrapped her legs around his neck and spun to take him to the ground. Spyro was on his hands and knees as Stealth got back on her feet and brought her leg upwards above Spyro's head and brought it down. The blond elf gritted his teeth to hold back the pain and brought his arm up just in time to block the attack and sent it back. Spyro got back on his feet and punched with his right arm towards Stealths head, but she leaned back far enough that her opponent's arm hit nothing but air. Stealth Elf brought her hands up to grabbed Spyro's forearm but she didn't see the smirk he gave when he saw this. Spyro grabbed Stealths hand and launched her upright and she went off balance falling forward almost into his opponent's shoulder. She reacted quickly as she leaned down again going underneath Spyro's arm. She spun in a dance fashion so that she was up straight facing Spyro directly still hand in hand. Stealth sent her spare hand forward but Spyro blocked it with his shoulder and her was placed on it. He moved his spare hand to punch her in the stomach but swayed to the side so he missed, he brought it back but his hand stopped when it made contact with her waist.
Everything stopped around them as they just realized the position they were in. Stealth Elf had her hand on Spyro's shoulder and he had his on her waist and both of their hands were locked together. Their faces were inches apart and they both stared into each others eyes. The sudden beauty them each was seen within the blank white eyes. Spyro could see a green, lushies, life aura around the body of his crush. Stealth Elf could see a beautiful purple mist like aura around the one she just met but something about him just made the urge to feel his skin and warmth of his body. Both of them blushed as their bodies were extremely close and lips were just centimeters away.
"Y-you were great." Stealth Elf said breaking the awkward moment and making Spence blush deeper.
"T-thanks, y-you were fantastic." He replied making her blush deeper as well.
The urge to lean forward and brush each other's lips together came to both of them as they forgot about everything. No more fighting, no more worrying, no more conflict it was just them and that was all they cared about. Spyro moved his head forward towards her to feel the sensation of what it was like to kiss someone without worrying the fact on who he really is. Stealth Elf caught on and moved her head forward to meet his to know what it is like to have her first kiss and know what it truly is she is feeling.
"Having fun yet you two?" Jet-vac voice rang out breaking the moment as both elves jump away from each from embarrassment their faces almost turning red.
The sensation instantly left making Spence sigh in disappointment as he missed his chance to finally kiss the girl he had always liked. Stealth Elf wasn't much different since she missed the warmth that made her insides turn on. Both of them had their long ears down in disappointment as they averted each other's gaze away from each other.
"Nice dance you two were doing." Pop fizz said running towards them along with Eruptor and Jet-Vac.
"It wasn't a dance Pop it was called a spar." Stealth Elf said crossing her arms over her chest as her blush just stayed.
"Well anyway you did good." Jet-Vac said.
"Not just me." Stealth said looking towards Spence who had his back turned to them to hide the disappointment on his face.
"Oh yeah sorry lad you did good to." Jet-Vac laughed rubbing the back of his head sheepishly.
"Yeah… thanks." Spyro said in a cold harsh tone which made the Skylanders look at him strangely. Spence just ignored them and walked off to where he left his cloak and sword.
"Yeesh sorry." Jet-Vac said not knowing the reason why he's made all of a sudden.
"Come on JV don't push it, he didn't mean it." Eruptor said.
"Yeah after all you interrupted the ending of their dance." Pop Fizz said making Stealth blush even more.
"It wasn't a dance." Spence said, his cloak was back on and his sword was back on his waist. "Just a friendly spar to get to know each other better". Spence turned to Stealth Elf when he said the last part and he held out both of his hands in front of her. Stealth looked down and saw her blades.
"Thanks." Stealth Elf said grabbing her blades from him.
"No problem." Spyro said giving her a soft smile.
"Hey lad, since you have such a unique skill why don't you come with us and we'll introduce you to Eon." Jet-Vac said gaining his attention.
"I would like to but I must decline the offer, I would like to explore the area more on my own for now." Spence said politely making Jet-Vac think more about him and what his intentions are.
"Are you sure? What if you get lost?" Eruptor asked.
"Don't worry, if I get lost I'll know exactly who to look for." Spence replied giving Eruptor a thumbs up.
"Well thanks, hope to see you again soon." Stealth said blushing.
"Sure love to." Spence said not noticing what he just said. "Well see ya." He said walking away as the Skylanders traced his movement.
At the entrance of the training gate Hex, Chill, and Roller Brawl came to the entrance they noticed the new arrival. They stared strangely at the newcomer as he made his way towards them. It was a elf slightly taller than Stealth but he had blond spiky hair and he wore a scarf and cloak and a sword was seen on his waist.
"Hey Spence wait up!" The elf known as Spence turned to see Stealth Elf stop him by grabbing his arm shocking the cadets.
"Yeah Stealth what is it?" Spence asked the female elf.
"I was wondering if you like to hang out tonight for dinner or something?" Stealth asked a blush on her face shocking the Cadets even more than before.
"Yeah sure sounds great, I hear there's a fancy restaurant not to far away. So 8?" Spence asked blushing as well.
"Yeah absolutely it's a date. See you there." With that done Spence gave her a warm smile and walked away with Stealth looking in the direction he is and smiled. The Cadets were shocked, confused, and surprised. They have never seen Stealth Elf ask someone out on a date and most people did bets that she would go on a date with Spyro. Oh he is going to be disappointed they thought as the stranger walked away from view.
(Kaossandra's castle: Kaos plotting room)
"Glumshanks!?" Kaos shouted looking for his troll servant.
"Yes Lord Kaos." Glumshanks looked up from the ground where he was cleaning the floor with his toothbrush.
"I have come up with a plan to get that Book which Creed possesses." Kaos exclaimed praising himself as usual.
"Oh and what is this so called plan?" Glumshanks said in a bored tone.
"We do a surprise attack by sneaking into the Mage's tower and search for the book and sneak out." Kaos answered.
"But Lord Kaos the Skylander Spyro is there guarding the mage." Glumshanks responded.
"I am well aware of that Glummy but I am powerful enough to handle him."
"But he wiped the floor with us. He is strong enough to deal with you." Glumshanks and noticed his mistake. Kaos walked over to him and kicked him in the gut.
"Why don't I wipe the floor with you." Kaos shouted.
"My apologizes lord Kaos. Why do we need the book?" The injured troll asked.
"I am so glad you asked. You see Glumshanks that book doesn't just hold the name of all the species in the world, it tells you how to create them. If I can find the most terrifying and powerful monster within that book I can finally take revenge on the Skylanders and destroy the core of light." Kaos said.
"So you plan to create a dangerous monster. What if you can't control it?" The troll asked again.
"One problem at a time, now hurry it up I need to take a bath soon." Glumshanks sighed and got up to make a bath for lord Kaos.
Spyro has been lurking outside of the academy's walls, mostly the library. He's been avoiding many others since he was getting strange glares from but mostly because he didn't want them to know what he was doing. Spyro has been studying the window places and entry ways. He already knew them but he wanted to make sure he had a good idea on how to get in. The young elf needed to get inside to find anything that might return him to normal and find a way to contact Creed since he forgot all about him.
The blond elf got off the wall he was leaning on and studied the landscape. He eavesdropped on multiple groups of people to see if any would be out tonight and if anything changed within Eon's study. Once he had enough he went behind the academy's main building. He made it behind the building believing he wasn't followed and grabbed the stone wall to ascend to the top.
"Hey what are you doing." Spyro flinched at the voice and instantly turned to face the person. It was Pop.
"Oh hey Pop, um… I was just looking around the place." Spyro said hoping he would buy it.
"Oh okay," He said and turned around to walk away. Spyro sighed in relief but froze again when Pop turned again. "I just saw you lurking around and wondering if you were doing anything suspicious".
"No why would you think that?" Spyro said holding up his hands defensively.
"Well JV does have some trust issues with you so I'm just making sure." Spyro mentally slapped himself to not try and get Jet-Vac's trust since he would have his suspicions.
"I'm sorry he feels like that, I'll try and make it up to you guys." The elf said.
"Oh no worries, so what were you really doing here?" He asked. Spyro tried to think of an answer until something from before popped in his head.
"I'm just trying to learn better dance moves." He said knowing how stupid it sounds.
"For you and Elf to finish that dance from before, great. Do your best." Pop Fizz gave him a thumbs up and he ran off.
Spyro sighed again and turned back to the target at hand. The now elf climbed up the wall of stone easily and rested on the roof keeping away from sight. He looked around to see the building beside the one he was on now and looked through the window. He saw Eon humming to himself and placing books back into their places. Spyro sighed once again.
"I'm sorry Eon." He said silently. Spyro noticed that the sky was now orange showing that it was sunset and almost time for his date with Stealth Elf. Spyro jumped off the roof making sure nobody noticed him and ran to his new challenge. A date with his crush.
The skylander team were within their home. The boys were in the kitchen while Stealth was doing who knows what. Jet-Vac was thinking to himself about their new friend Spence. He has been finding signs that he may be evil but there's no prove.
"Hey lads mind if I ask you something?" JV asked his teammates.
"Sure what is it?" Pop Fizz asked just arriving home.
"What are your thoughts on Spence?" The bird questioned.
"The new guy? I think he's nice." Eruptor said.
"I know he seems nice but he has so much skill that he should've been well known. I just find it weird that he comes out of nowhere and wipes the floor with everyone." Jet-Vac replied.
"I find him alright, even when he was sneaking around Eon's study." Pop's words got the attention of the other two. "What did I say something?"
"Pop what do you mean he was sneaking around Eon's study." Jet-Vac sighed.
"I mean that he was just standing around and sticking to the shadows as he eyed the building and went out back. Although he said he was practicing dancing." Pop said.
"Do you think he's evil or… evil-ish?" Eruptor asked.
"I don't know? He does have rugged and rogue-ish looks but that could mean anything, but it could be possible that he is evil." Jet-Vac said giving a depressed look.
"Well who's going to tell Elfy?" Eruptor asked again. Jet-Vac and Pop Fizz looked at each other and did quick thinking.
"Not it!" They both said in unison taking Eruptor by surprise. The large lava creature sighed and walked off to tell Stealth.
Eruptor made it to her room and knocked twice. When he heard a "Come in" he walked into the room to see the unthinkable. Stealth was fixing her hair to look pretty taking Eruptor by even more surprise as his jaw was opened wide.
"Hey Eruptor, what do you think?" Stealth said giving a twirl to show her brushed ponytailed hair that hung over her left shoulder. She wore a brown dress that hung down to her knees but she still wore her usual gloves and boots. "I really hope Spence likes it."
If Eruptor could take anymore shock he would surely faint but he kept himself standing. Eruptor was struggling to find the words to tell her about Spence. Would she get mad? Would she be sad? Who knows but he still couldn't say anything when she ran passed him into the kitchen. Back in the kitchen the other two were quite surprised to see Stealth Elf dressed so nice just for one guy.
"W-w-whats all this?" Jet-Vac stuttered.
"Well what do you think? I'm going on a date with Spence and wanted to look my best. Oh by the way I wanted to ask if you guys wanted him to join the Skylanders. So I could be closer to him aaahh I mean us." Stealth blush from embarrassment from her words.
"You didn't tell her, did you?" Jet-Vac asked Eruptor who shook his head in a "No" matter.
"Didn't tell me what?" Stealth asked taking interest.
"Well we think Spence may be evil." Pop said making Jet-Vac and Eruptor facepalm their faces as they wanted to tell her slowly. Elf stared at them in disbelieve.
"How could you think of such a thin!" She shouted at them. "What has he done to make you guys think he is bad."
"Well for one we never heard of him before and he comes out of nowhere!" JV shouted back.
"He said he's been training this whole time so he mustn't been near civilization and what gives you the right to say that people can't come here." Stealth Elf replied back making a good point.
"He was sneaking around Eon's study." Pop interrupted.
"How could you tell he was sneaking Pop, he said he was going to explore and he would try to avoid attention when he isn't used to it. Plus didn't you confuse Eruptor to stomping than tip toeing." She said.
"Okay you got me there." Pop finished.
"Look Elfy we're just telling you to be careful around since he may not be as he seems." Eruptor said trying to end the argument, but it didn't work.
"I can't believe you guys would think of him like that." She said walking to the door. "The first time we met him he not only helped us but he saved me, so maybe you should think twice about who's evil and who's not." She opened the door and looked at them again. "Now if you'll excuse me I have a date."
With that she slammed the door, Hard, and walked off to try and forget their conversation and just enjoy her night with someone that made her feel something special.
