This is how I really wanted to enter in the story so just live with it. Don't worry it will get better as I go along. Enjoy!
"So what's his name?" Kenta heard a vague, but a deep baritone voice.
"He said his name was Kenta?" Kenta heard the familiar voice that found him in the forest. "Look he's waking up." Kenta opened an eye the other eye was bandaged. He saw two tall figures and two smaller figures across the room.
He blinked trying to refocus his vision. A large cheetah walked over to him.
"Kenta are you alright? How do you feel?" Kenta looked up at the cheetah.
"I …can't move… w…what happened to me?" Kenta asked in deep breaths. Kenta could feel a burning pain in his chest and he remembered the night before.
"Don't worry Kenta you're going to be just fine." Hunter smiled and reassured the dragon.
"I… never caught… your name." Kenta asked curious as to what his name was.
"Hmm… yes, I'm sorry we met the way we did. Let me introduce myself. My name is Hunter." Kenta looked to the others behind Hunter.
"And what about them?" Kenta asked. A black dragoness walked up next to hunter. Her eyes were an emerald green and her chest and underbelly was a crimson red. She had markings on her shoulders and her forehead. Her wings were also a crimson red and there were more markings on her lower back.
"My name is Cynder and this here is Spyro." She said as a purple dragon walked up beside her. His body was riddled with scars meaning he was a strong fighter. Spyros chest and underbelly was a yellowish gold and so were his horns. His wings were orange and his wing skeleton was a yellowish gold as well. His eyes were a dark purple.
Kenta looked up to a giant green dragon behind them. Kenta just decided to describe him as big and strong.
"And my name is Terrador." The large green dragon said. He looked about in his late 40's, early 50's. He had multiple scars all across his body. The most notable one was the one right below his eye. He looked like a seasoned warrior, as well as an experienced general and strategist. "But there will be time for introductions later. You need to rest right now. The injuries you sustained were severe."
Kenta cocked his head to the side and looked at his body. His eyes widened at what he saw. His body was riddled with scars. A giant gash caught his eye. It was a large gash, on his chest, in the center, more to the left. It looked deep, obviously enough so to hit his lung. His breathing quickened and he started panicking. His vision blurred and contorted.
"Kenta!" A vague voice call he didn't know who was calling him. "Kenta stay with us, c'mon snap out of it!" Kenta heard his name repeated several times and the voice changed pitch. The voice screamed one more time and an image flashed through his mind and flashed away.
"I…Is he ok…?" Cynder said worried of the dragon's condition. Hunter placed two fingers on the dragon's neck.
"He has a pulse. He'll be fine. We should let him rest for now." Hunter suggested. Terrador nodded and looked at Spyro and Cynder.
"Spyro, Cynder, I want you two to return to your daily life. He will be under special care. Don't worry." Terrador said. Spyro and Cynder left the room leaving Hunter and Terrador to converse on the matter of Kenta.
"He's still young, but his aura is immense. Where did you find this dragon?" Terrador said examining Kenta's injured state.
"You told me to investigate the strange sighting of the falling object. The only thing I found was a dragon nothing more." Hunter said.
"Are you sure that's all you found while you were out there?" Terrador asked puzzled. Hunter thought about it.
'Why couldn't he have chosen a better time for the question?' Hunter thought to himself as he thought back to the mysterious encounter in the woods. "Yes, there was something else. I think it might have been hunting Kenta." Hunter explained.
"What was it that you found?" Terrador glared at hunter.
"I'm not quite sure exactly it was a dark black creature it's eyes glowed red. It moved faster than anything I've ever seen before. I actually thought I was going to die that very moment." Terrador looked back to Kenta.
"Well then we must keep him safe from harm. He might be our only hope as to killing these creatures. I want you to keep your men at watch, tell them to look out for any sign of the creatures." Terrador ordered. Hunter nodded and headed out the door. Terrador looked out the window to the city of Warfang.
"Something is coming something far worse the Malefor himself. May the ancestors look after us may they look after us all."
Meanwhile back in the cafeteria Spyro and Cynder sat down to eat.
"You think Kenta is going to be ok? I mean he looks pretty bad." Cynder asked worriedly. Spyro looked around his mountain of food.
"I'm sure he'll be just fine Cynder, let's just eat for now ok? We'll visit Kenta later tonight." Spyro gave Cynder a reassuring glance and they went back to their meal. Steel and Lux saw the two eating together. Steel looked back to Lux with an unsure look on his face.
"I honestly think they know something about the event last night, but I really don't want to bug them about it. Do you think we should ask?"
"If we were supposed to know, we would." Lux said simply. "I say let's just wait. If they want us to know, we shall be informed." The two sat at a table and ate quietly. Steel was still anxious to know of what that falling object was, but he kept it to himself.
Steel saw Spyro and Cynder get up, throw their trays away, and head out the door
Meanwhile Dawn walked around the temple's many halls, examining all the paintings of war and symbols embedded on the walls. Spyro and Cynder walked around the corner and noticed the dragoness eyeing the paintings.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" Spyro asked. Dawn turned around startled by the voice.
"Oh, I err…was just looking around, hey… you're… you're Spyro, right? And Cynder of course." She bowed in respect of the two. "I've heard a lot about you two. My name is Dawn. It's a pleasure to meet you." She said. "You two saved the world from the dark master. I have just one question if it's ok for me to ask?" Spyro nodded and sat on his hunches. "I know you've defeated the dark master, but do you think he will return?" Spyro and Cynder looked at each other skeptical of the question.
"We are positive that the dark master will not return, but we can't be certain if he is truly gone." Spyro said thinking about the battle. A cold shiver came crawling up his spine. Spyro shook it off and looked back to the white dragoness.
"I see well if you need any help taking him down again, just know you're not the only dragon. The rest of us can fight too, you know." Spyro and Cynder smiled. The trio walked down the many halls and told stories about their lives. Dawn asked questions about the different paintings on the wall and what they were about. Spyro and Cynder did their best to answer her questions.
"I see. So that's how you two met. It must have been frightening for you both." Dawn said intrigued by their story.
"Spyro and I didn't really get along at first seeing as how I was controlled by the dark powers of Malefor." Cynder said.
"Well, I think that's enough questions for today. We have to get back to...er…well you know what I mean Cynder." Spyro said nudging her shoulder.
"Oh right ya I almost forgot!" Spyro and Cynder sprinted off.
"It was nice meeting you Dawn!" They hollered back.
"You too!" Dawn waved as they turned a corner she then proceeded on too her temporary housing with the rest of the dragons.
Kenta laid still on the bed his body rising and falling with each breath.
'I never remembered it taking this long for my wounds to heal.' He thought to himself. The doors opened and Kenta's eye slowly opened to find Spyro and Cynder walking into the room.
"Oh, I see you're awake. We didn't wake you up, did we?" Spyro asked. Cynder noticed a tray of food that was sitting on top of a desk so that it was easy to reach for Kenta.
"Did you at least eat?"She said staring at the Kenta with worried eyes.
"No I didn't I was passed out at the time. I didn't realize someone brought food for me." Kenta Slowly lifted his upper body sitting on his haunches breathing heavily as he moved struggling against the pain. Spyro jumped on the bed to insure he didn't fall over. Cynder fallowed suit and jumped on the other side of Kenta.
Kenta swayed from left to right. His legs shook but, he stood firm. A bead of sweat trickled down his forehead.
"Kenta, maybe you should just lay down. We can feed you there is no reason for you to put any more strain on your body." Kenta shook his head in response.
"No, I have to get use to this ... I will be able to walk by tomorrow. I have to face this pain for a few days, might as well fight it now then later." Spyro looked at Kenta. He had a determined look in his eye, even though he was practically crying.
'This dragon is crazy as hell and takes risks. On the other hand he's stronger then he appears. He's different then most dragons. What is he?' Spyro pondered as he saw the dragon reluctantly start eating. Spyro smiled and looked to Cynder who was still worried about the dragons well being.
"He'll be fine Cynder." Cynder looked towards Spyro and smiled.
"Remind you of anyone Spyro?" She giggled. Spyro was puzzled at the question.
"What do you mean?" Spyro asked.
"He's just like you stubborn as a rock. You acted the same way when you first at after the battle." Spyro coughed and cleared his throat.
"Ya sure but who was the one laying on her back groaning the whole time in her sleep for a special someone." He gave a sly smile. Cynder blush a light pink and shuffled her feet.
"Well looks like we have a couple of love birds in the room Ha." Kenta said after finishing off his meal. "If you two don't mind I'd like to lie down for a while." Spyro and Cynder jumped off the bed. Spyro then crawled under the bed and dragged out a box that read Chess on the top.
"Well since we have to watch over you for the night we might as well play a game while you rest." Spyro and Cynder looked back to the dragon that was already deep in his sleep. Spyro and Cynder laughed and started to unpack the game.
"Well I guess this is my new home." Kenta whispered in his sleep. Spyro and Cynder smiled and played for an hour. After the third game in a row the two fell asleep. Cynders head lay over Spyros neck and their tails intertwined.
The black fox creature stood standing on the top of a mountain. The moon shun behind him as he watched over the city. A light breeze blew by and caring with it cherry blossom petals. The fox watched as the petals danced in the wind. He looked back to the city. All was safe for now, so he sprinted off the mountain and headed back into the woods.
"The dark creatures are coming Kenta. I hope you're ready for what you must do in the end."
Kenta's eye opened and instead of its normal yellow color it shunned a dark red as the black foxes.
