Hey there sorry this one took a little bit longer to post but here it is, chapter three. Hope you enjoy.
Chapter three
"What?" Rys stepped back. A whole surge of emotions ran through him. Confusion, happiness, sadness, denial. Only one thing rang true and that was that this librarian was crazy, right? How could Rys be the legendary purple dragon he loved so much. How could he be Spyro himself?
"This just keeps getting stranger and stranger" Sparky said. "Dragon realms? My brother is Spy something? Nah Rys this was a waste of time."
"Rys my name is Ignitus. I am also a dragon. I control the element of fire" the librarian said.
Rys didn't say anything. He sat down on a chair. Everything became blurry. If he was Spyro why was he in human form? Why couldn't he remember anything from his past? "This is too unreal. First I breathe fire and then I find out that I'm Spyro?" he couldn't believe what he was saying?
"Who's this Spyro? That's the name of that dragon from the video games right?" Sparky said.
"They're not just video games" Ignitus said. "They are real accounts of things that happened, at least in another dimension."
"This doesn't make any sense" Sparky said. "You called me Sparx. Actually Rys also called me Sparx before. Who is this Sparx character?"
"Sparx you are Spyro's brother and protector" Ignitus said. "And you are also a dragonfly."
Sparky's eyes lit up. "A dragonfly?" He looked at Rys.
"The time for questions will come" Ignitus said. "For now all you need to know is this. Spyro I still don't know why we are in human form or what happened. I don't remember how we came to be like this but I know that it was a dark spell. Someone or something made you and your friends forget. I tell you now because I have sensed a darkness coming. A darkness not of this world. We must stop it and regain back your memories of your true selves so that we can go back home."
Rys felt like he was on a dream. Suddenly everything became slow motion. It wasn't real. None of it. The librarian was just playing a prank on them. But then how would he explain the fire? The vision that felt like a memory? The dream where a voice spoke to him? It was all too much.
"I don't understand" Rys finally said. "It feels so sublime, so surreal."
"It feels like a load of potatoes, that's what it feels like" Sparky said. "You're not really gonna believe anything this man is saying right?"
"So if everything is true" Rys said dismissing with a sigh Sparky's remark. "Then what happened? I mean if everything that happened in the games really happened then Malefor was defeated and Cynder-"
"It is a lot to take in I know" Ignitus said. "You probably don't even feel anything about this is true but trust me it took me some while to understand it too. You see I too was under this spell but it didn't have a long lasting effect on me. One day I woke up and realized everything. I guess being the Chronicler made my powers surpass the dark spell. I don't remember much about how the dark spell was wrought or even who was behind it. But I know this much, the person or creature that cast it is very powerful and for some reason wanted us here, in this world."
"The Chronicler right" Rys said.
"Is fairy tale story time over now?" Sparky said. "Can we go back to our normal lives now?"
"I had a dream before coming here" Rys said. "I was standing in the middle of a circle of trees, I was on four legs, I had wings and I was purple" he blushed. "And then I heard a voice."
"Wait really Rys?" Sparky said.
Ignitus gave a concerned look, "keep going. What did the voice say?"
"It said to come see you, that you would have answers for me. That I had awoken my powers and to free everyone of this dark curse and return us home."
"What? Rys you didn't tell me this" Sparky said.
"I was petrified. I didn't know what was going on."
"Intriguing" Ignitus said. "Whoever this voice is, one thing is true. Your powers have started to awaken. You already breathed fire. Can you do it again?"
Rys nodded. Sparky stood aside. He held his breath and tried to cough up something out of his throat. From out of his mouth saliva came out. "Wait what happened?"
"It may have to do with your feelings" Ignitus said. "Concentrate little one. Close your eyes and concentrate."
Rys closed his eyes. He imagined Sparky being punched again. That sent shivers down his spine. He opened his mouth, little flickers of flame came out. Sparky opened his mouth in awe.
Spyro chuckled as the bright dragonfly flew away. "Race ya" Sparx said.
"Oh no you don't" Spyro said as he spread his wings and flapped them as hard as he could until the air carried him with ease. "I'm gonna win this time."
"What? You couldn't catch me in a thousand years bro" Sparx said. "I am way too fast for you. I'm light and you well have-"
"Weight issues?" Spyro said. His eyes glared menacingly at Sparx. "Don't even say it I've heard it all before. Hey look out." Sparx stopped and turned around.
"What?" Sparx said looking around. Then a purple flash swooshed by his side, the wind of the flash sending Sparx to spiral down a little bit.
"Hey why you-"
"Ha ha" Spyro smiled. "Last one home is a rotten egg."
"I wasn't born from an egg" Sparx said. "Was I?"
"No Rys we weren't" Sparky said. His voice startled Rys as he opened his eyes. He still sat down. In front of him lay a couple of scorched books.
"What happened?" Rys said.
"You breathed fire young dragon."
"I did?" Rys said. "But I don't remember. I had a vision or something. I was flying with a dragonfly I called Sparx. It felt familiar. Not like having played the game familiar but like I really lived it, like I was really there."
"Yeah it sounded like you were chanting" Sparky said.
"I believe that was a memory of your past life Spyro" Ignitus said. "But that will be all for tonight. Tomorrow we will begin your training."
"Training?" Rys said. "Really?" he smiled.
"Um hold on there" Sparky said. "Dude you can't even do one push-up."
"I'll manage. I'll give it all I got."
"Well I am just a little bit convinced of you but not of your story pops"Sparky said. "I mean my brother gets to be a cool purple dragon and I'm a dragonfly? Really?"
"Don't feel bad young Sparx" Ignitus said. "Your purpose in your brother's destiny is and has been a great one no matter how small you are." After seeing that Sparky only nodded, Ignitus picked up a book from the top shelf behind him. It was a book as big as a mole. Its spine was engraved with gems of every color and scales decorated the front cover. "This will be an adventure to remember."
