The travel through the portal was disturbingly long, and when they did finally make it to the other side, they landing was rough. Spyro shook his head, surprised the ground wasn't soft grass, but hard concrete. He looked around. I have made it. I have fianlly made it! "Spyro! Look over here!" Sparx said, who was ahead of Spyro. "Come check this out." Spyro came towards what Sparx was looking at. It was a dark ally, and desprite being... well dark... the other side was an opening. They decided to go through. "Whoa!" Spyro and Sparx said at the same time, when they came to the other side. It was... a city! A large busy city! With large metal coated vehicles roaming the roads. Along with tall hairless creatures, humans, that crowded the sidewalks. Amazed of what a discovery Spyro made, he took a couple of steps further. Unfortunately, that was a BAD idea...
"EEEeeekk! A lizard!" A lady screamed. Others screamed as yell, and this startled Spyro and Sparx. They tried to run to the other side, and they were this close to becoming road kill! You would think Spyro would want to go home now... Or at least get a map... "I guess these creatures never seen a dragon before." Spyro said to Sparx. He looked at all the moving vehicles passing by, and once a truck stopped, Spyro hopped in the back. "There, now we can see everything!" He said gladly. Spyro looked around, as the truck started moving again. The city was filled with people, and yet, the place was very clean and the air smelled sweet.This is such a beautiful place to live. Thought Spyro. How come Tomas wanted to keep all this away from us? There has to be a catch here. Maybe, he didn't want us to see something. Or want us to do something. These creatures may not know about dragons, but they don't look harmfull... He watched some children playing in the park, and a family having a picnic. Nope, not harmful at all.
Just as the truck stopped at a red light, Spyro seemed to notice a large commotion going on at the jewelry store. People were crowding around, and parked in front of the store was a "Pest Control" truck. Inside the store was the sounds of crashing glass, valuable jewelry falling, and screaming. Lots of screaming... "Get it! Get it! Get it! It's destroyng everything!" A lady yelled at the Pest Control people, who happened to be one man and woman. That's when the culprit decided to run for escape. It was a small pink dragon. She stopped outside the store, shook the pearl necklaces and jewelry off her, and ran off with the Pest Control at her tail. Spyro stared at Sparx, and asked, "Did you see what I think I saw?" But Sparx shrugged. Without warning, Spyro jumped out of the truck and followed the dragon girl.
The dragon girl ran down the MIDDLE of the street and hoped onto a moving car, just when the Pest Control got into their truck. "I'm the queen of the world!" She cried out load, then she rasberried the Pest Control. To stop the car she was on top of, she jumped in front of it, causing the driver to freak out and hit his air bag. The dragon girl ran off to the right. The Pest Control was still at her, and tried to catch the pink dragon. Spyro and Sparx were watching this from a safe distance. "Ha! Losers! You can't catch me!" She taunted, then she ran onto another street, and dodged more cars. That's when she saw it. A control box at the contruction center. She ran in front of the Pest Control truck and yelled, "Hey! Come and get me!" As she waved her paws frantically. The Pest Control came straight at her, but she jumped out of the way. "Wait, where'd it go?" Asked the woman to her male partner.
Without realizing it, their truck suddenly started rising off the floor... "Tee hee hee...!" The dragon girl laughed evily, as she pulled the lever from the control box that made the crane rise the truck off the ground! Soon, the truck was hovering almost four stories high up in the sky! The man in the truck looked down at the dragon girl, "Aaaa! Whatever you do, don't look down!" The dragon girl smiled at the man tauntingly, put on her A-Pod, and walked away dancing to the beat.
"Should we follow her?" Spyro asked Sparx. Sparx looked at the dragon girl, and nodded. After walking about three blocks, that's when the dragon girl suddenly felt followed. She looked back, but Spyro and Sparx hid behind a nearby bush. Hmmm... If that's how you want to play it... She thought as she smiled wickedly. Then she took an unexpected turn into a dark ally. Curious, Spyro went to follow, but she had dissapeared. "Where did she go? Hello?" Spyro called. "Maybe we should..." Then suddenly someone tackled him down hard onto the ground. "Grrrrr! Why are you stalking me?!" It was the dragon girl, and she was twisting Spyro's hand in an odd position... "Ow! No! I'm not stalking you! I just wanted to meet you!" Spyro cried out. The dragon girl got off him, and released her grip.
The dragon girl smiled at him, which made Spyro a bit uncomfortable. "You wanted to meet me? Well, that changes everything." She gave out her paw. "My name is Rosabel Rosebud. But, call me Rosie... or else I will have to hurt you..." Spyro shook her paw, but she didn't let go. Spyro couldn't cleary see how this "Rosie" looked like, since they were in the shadows. But he can definately make out her high-pitch voice. Rosie moved into the sunlight, and so did Spyro and Sparx. "So are you new here?" She asked. Spyro laughed and answered, "I guess you can say that." Rosie didn't get it, and who would blame her, Spyro came from somewhere else. Rosie took a few steps forward, and then turned to him, "I can give you a tour. How about that?" But before Spyro got to answer, she had already started walking off. Spyro went to catch up.
Rosie was a small pink dragon. Actually, she was smaller than Spyro himself. Maybe one or two inches shorter. She had aqua-ish blue hair that fell over her face like a curl. Her claws, the skin in her wings, under-belly, and her eyes were also the same shade of aqua, while her horns and part of her wings were a darker shade of teal. And she also wore a multi-colored flower on her left horn. But the part that really surprised him is that she had a fin as the end of her tail. Rosie must have sensed that Spyro was checking her out, because she started blushing. Spyro had to admit, she was cute. But he soon looked away. "Sorry, it's just... Your tail..." Spyro quickly explained. "Are you a sea dragon?" Rosie nodded and said she was also half ice, too. "Daddy is a sea dragon, and Mommy was a ice dragon"
"Was?"
Rosie stopped dead in her tracks, looked back at Spyro with a blank but sad expression, but then kept walking. Spyro looked at Sparx confused. "Was it something I said?"
The rest of the way Rosie was rambling on about random things that had no meaning what-so-ever. "So Spyro, where do you come from?" She asked. Spyro looked around to see if anybody was watching, then he answered, "I come from this planet called Charactoria. Am I still in Charactoria?" He never thought of that until now. Maybe he is still on his home planet, but Rosie shook her head. "You, my friend, are on Earth. Hawaii to be more specific." She said with a smile. Spyro and Sparx froze in their spot. "EARTH?!" They both cried out. Spyro jumped into a bush, and asked worridly, "Than why are we walking right across where any humans can see us?!" Rosie shrugged, still with that smile on her face, and continued to walk. Sparx pulled on his antenas, and cried out, "Man, she must be nuts! Humans are dangerous! And there she goes strutting down the sidewalk like it's no big deal! Right Spyro! Spyro? Where'd you..."
"So do you live here?" Spyro asked Rosie. She scofted, and shook her head. "I don't live here, silly!" Rosie sped up a bit. "Come on! I'll show you!" Soon she was zipping threw trees and bushes with ease, and Spyro and Sparx had a hard time catching up. "Hurry! We're almost there!" Which was a lie, because they still had a lot of yards to cover, and the only one who was enoying the run was Rosie... Spyro and Sparx stopped to rest on the ground. "No more, please!" Sparx complained. Spyro didn't want to run either. "We're here!" Rosie cried out happily, who was ahead of them. Spyro reluctantly got up to see what Rosie was looking at. Spyro's mouth dropped, because what he was just seeing was the most amazing this he ever saw. It was a city... but it was FILLED with magical creatures of all sorts! Never in his life would he actually see magical creatures on Earth!
"It's like a magical city..." Spyro finally whispered out. "A magical city..." Rosie giggled and grabbed Spyro's paw. "I can show you around if you want me? It will be fun!" Spyro looked slightly down at Rosie's paw that was holding his, and he got a bit uncomfortable again. "Umm.. Sure, why not?" Rosie squeaked, and pulled Spyro to show him her home.
A/N: As you all know this is a friendship/humar story, so don't expect Spyro and Rosie to get all kissy kissy! Ew... BUT! I will give out some... hints...
