A,N: Hey guys sorry that this took longer then needed to get posted just that school has a tendency to get in the way of things, and also WOW over 320 views in my first chapter I'm so grateful of you guys and the amount that like this. But now we got a new chapter hope you guys like it and chapter three will hopefully be arriving sooner then this one.

The morning was silent, the morning sun washed over Warfang which it had been seeing a lot since the end of the war and the wind was quiet only a little breeze now and then but still, no-one in the city had yet to be awake, everyone was exhausted from the excitement from yesterday's events, but Spyro, he had been flying for the majority of a week and his wings couldn't be pushed any more. So he was out like a light when his head landed on the pillows to his bed dreaming of a certain black and pink dragoness.

Cynder was all that was on his mind since they escaped Malefor's lair, he thought of everything they've been through, how she was used and he freed her, how she ran away from the dragon temple, to being frozen in the time crystal and endure three years to break free and finally put a stop to the Dark Master's plans. She had been every step of the way and she refused to leave his side and all that they have said and done.

The only thing he couldn't say were three words, three simple words that just didn't seem to escape him, was it...fear? Spyro has feared many things, but this was something that could affect his relationship with the black dragoness. Only one thing kept him from losing hope was remembering the words that he had hopefully heard from her.

'I love you.'

The purple dragon was suddenly awoken with a banging on the door.

"Just a second" as Spyro wearily got off his bed with wings draped on the floor, slowly approaching the door, to open it thinking Cynder had come to wake him up. To his surprise Hunter was the one behind the door leaning against the outside frame, the cheetah smiles down at his young friend

"Ah looks like someone decided to sleep in after all."

"Wha- Hunter!" replying whilst rubbing his eyes, all Hunter could do was laugh at the surprised dragon.

"I'm glad to see you too Spyro." The cheetah stated as he turned to walk down the stone corridor waving a paw for Spyro to follow to which he did, walking along side the cheetah.

"I wanted to see how you were doing, but had no idea where your room was, luckily I ran into Cynder and she showed me to your room." Turning his head to look at the young dragon seeing him blankly stare back at him.

"I'm guessing you haven't told her about your feelings?"

That got Spyro to stop and go wide eyed at the cheetah, who gave a light chuckle as he saw the young dragon's face.

"I-I-I don't know what you're talking about Hunter?"

"Don't try to play that game on me Spyro, I'm not that old and besides the way you acted for her care during the battle was noticeable." seeing the young dragon's purple cheeks go slightly red. "Haha see, it's easy to get the truth such as love out of the young ones these days."

As he continued to walk down the end of the corridor and down a small set of stairs to a pavilion, with a fountain in the centre with path ways around it, with split into

"Well I do care for her and since we escaped Malefor's lair and the only thing I 'could' think about was her. *Sigh* how do you think I should approach this?"

The cat but a finger to his chin "Hmm, whilst I have experience in a lot of things women aren't one of them so I can't help you there, but I guess if you just act normal and tell her how you feel then I guess you're set." Informing the young hero quite heartedly.

"Well at least I still got some advice" responding nonchalantly.

They were approaching the mess hall; it was quite grand a large rectangular building, with four stone columns at the front and being made of stone as well, on the top was a large glass dome, moles, some dragons and cheetahs were walking in and out. Behind the hall was another building looking like the dragon temple to which Spyro thought was the Confluence.

"Come Spyro, you must be hungry since you haven't eaten after you escaped the time crystal?" the cheetah offered

"Didn't the guardians want to see me about something quite important?" inquired the young dragon.

"Yes but breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day... or in your case breakfast and lunch." Hunter simply stated.

"Oh- I didn't realise how long I slept for." He stated quite guiltily

Hunter simply nodded as the pair entered the large open door less building.

As they entered Spyro was taken aback by the size on the inside, the hall looked longer on the inside with the ceiling being lower on the rim, with the space in the middle having another floor with more setting areas, and finally with the glass dome still casting light in and Spyro now noticed four dragons of earth fire ice and lightning stained on there with their depicted elements swirling till they meet the dragon facing the other way.

There were multiple moles going round to different tables, taking different animals orders. On both sides of the hall, were counters, with chefs using multiple ovens and various tools to cook and prepare an assortment of food.

As they made their way further inside they easily noticed Cynder sitting by herself at a triangular shaped table, looking into space and didn't notice the two males approaching her.

Spyro used this advantage to look at the dark dragoness features: her soft emerald eyes, her scales black as the night sky, her belly more vibrant then any rose he had seen, her ivory horns which she had seemed to polish looking like pearls with a shine.

Unfortunately the purple hero wasn't looking where he was going and hit the side of the table doing a 90 degree turn, catching Cynder's attention and causing her to give of a light giggle at the goofy dragon, causing him to blush.

"I see that you finally got him out of bed Hunter." She simply stated

"Yeah I guess all the stress and excitement finally caught up with him" causing the pair to chuckle whilst Spyro just starred not entirely amused.

"Good morning to you to. So Cynder do you know what the guardians want with us?"

"No Spyro I don't, I'm assuming they will want to speak to us both." She simply stated.

They sat there for a moment in silence that is until Hunter stands up to announce he's going to get some food leaving the dragon duo, but as he walks past Cynder, Spyro notices a smirk on the cheetahs face to which Spyro just stared at him disapprovingly as he remembered his conversation with him and that he probably won't be coming back to them. The entire situation was awkward they didn't really know what to say to each other only giving a glance to one another that was until Cynder broke the silence.

"So" As she simply looked up at him.

"So" Spyro repeated.

"I wanted to... I wanted to ask you something ummm..."

This made Spyro stare at her with a little idea at what she has hopefully going to say.

"I've been meaning to ask you something to."

"Really!?"

"Yeah umm... I was wondering if you...' he took in a quick breath before finishing but was interrupted by a deep gruff voice.

"Ah Spyro, Cynder I see you two are up early did you enjoy the rooms we have arranged for you?" the two turned to see Terrador approaching their table.

"Yes they were really nice thank you." Cynder simply stated, Spyro noticed her cheeks were a dark red from blushing, from what though? Turning back to the old guardian giving thanks as well

"Yeah it was the best sleep I've had in a long time." Thanking with a grin.

"Very good now that you two are here, we can address the situation we told you about yesterday. If you would follow me to the Confluence the other guardians are waiting." The earth guardian simply instructed

"Of course." They said together both looking at each other and just as quickly away with reddened cheeks, Terrador simply chuckled at the young ones actions.

The Confluence was a magnificent building it looked just like the dragon temple but it larger with quartz carved pillars with light streaks of gold reflecting the light from the sun, the rest of the building was carved like the mess hall out of a light stone and just like the mess hall had a large turquoise stained glass dome in the centre.

The two young dragons were in awe of the building whilst the Earth guardian didn't take note of their expressions and marched on towards the inside with the young hero's slowly following him.

"Come on young dragons we have much to discuss and whilst you may be impressed with the building now's not the time to gawk." The older dragon stated with a bit of urgency in his voice, Spyro and Cynder simply nodded whilst still gazing at now the inside of the building gaining a sigh from Terrafor.

Somehow without looking at where they were going managed to successfully make their way through the corridor to the pool of visions room without knocking into each other or anything.

There wasn't anything different from this pool of visions room then the one at the previous temple only the size was larger and there were numerous books what they contain is unknown with Volteer and Cyril standing round the pool.

"Ah excellent, wonderful, marvellous, it seems you two have finally decided to join us and our concerns." Blabbered out the electric guardian.

"Yes, yes Volteer now would you be quiet for a moment." Moaned the self ambiguous dragon that is Cyril.

"Both of you, stop you babbling and lets discuss the situation at hand.' Terrador giving them both a hard and serious look. ' Now Spyro I assume you and Cynder had a look around Warfang?' receiving nods from the younger dragons ' And I assume you also noticed the lack of dragon's present in the city."

Both turning to each other with concerned looks at to what Terrador was getting at after which Cynder just has to ask.

"What does this have to do with Master Terrador?"

The Earth guardian just gave a heavy sigh before responding after a couple of seconds.

"I'll get straight to the point then. Before the Dragon Temple was raided Warfang wasn't as you see it is today, the markets were filled with dragon life and were prosperous. But since Malefor returned most fled from his wraith whilst a few stayed, being the ones you see today, whilst Volteer, Cyril and myself believe that now with a moment to think, that they have gone into hiding and don't know of the news that the war is over. We want to task you two and two other search parties to go out and find these remaining dragons. But the question we have been wondering is will you do this one final task for three old dragons?"

Again Spyro and Cynder both stared at each other as if they could telepathically communicate as to what they should do, then Spyro looked to the floor, giving a few moments of thought...

"We won't know unless we try." Spyro stating in a hushed voice.

"Are you sure? You've been through a lot and you haven't had a lot of time to rest." Making sure that, that was his final answer.

"I'm positive." Replying quite confidently.

"Well then I'm with you." Replying as confident as Spyro did with a small grin.

"Excellent, wonderful, extravagant, superb-"

"Yes, yes Volteer that's enough before you start your ramblings" again Cyril stopping Volteer from his quick and pointless words, creating a small argument at how pompous and self ambiguous Cyril with his lectures and how annoying and tiresome Volteer was with his lectures, Terrador just sighed and shook his head with a smile. "Those two will never stop." Turning his attention back to Spyro and Cynder.

"We are grateful that you have accepted this mission and have brought hope to the dragon race, you to have come a long way since both your hatchings and endured imaginable pain and sorrow. But look to the sky's young ones for a cloak of red, green, blue, yellow, black, crimson, sap green and silver wings shall cover the land of Warfang again. Now go and enjoy the rest of your day, for tomorrow will be the start for searching and we need you both rested and ready for the days to come."

Terrador stared at the duo and reflecting at what has happened since the raid of the temple with Ignitus going into hiding to find spyro and free not just the guardians but Cynder and how they were told of life since her hatching and what torture she had to go through. His didn't look stern and commanding as they always had but were now filled with not just pride at his students but also hope. Hope that these two dragons will bring about a brighter future for Dragon kind.

A,N well looks like Spyro and Cynder have still not finished and still have a mission to do, next chapter will include the search parties going out and well... searching, with a few new and familiar faces making the stage and a bit of back story.
