A/N: ATTENTION! Following chapter contains character that does not belong to me! No, I'm not talking about Spyro... Draganta the Dragonlord has given me permission to add his character, Draganta, to my story. So thank you, Draganta the Dragonlord! For being so nice you win... uh... ( Picks up Rosie ) Here, take her, she's free...
"I have to get back home, Ro. Maybe someone over there might know what's going on." Spyro said as he was about to leave the castle, but Rosie grabbed his tail. "No! You can't go!" She cried out. Spyro laughed silently to himself, and turned around to face Rosie. He smiled, and said, "Rosie, you're coming with us"
"What?!" Rosie and Sparx both yelled out. Rosie's face formed a smile, while Sparx fromed a frown... She was excited in what an offer she has been givin, but at the same time she was afriad. Going to a different world is definatley a huge step, and what will her dad think when he notices that her daughter is gone? "Daddy..." Rosie reminded herself. He would never let me go. Rosie thought. Oh great, here he comes now... She put on a fake smile and cheerfully said, "Hi, Daddy." Her dad replied with a smile, but nothing more, and Rosie rolled her eyes. As her dad walked inside the castle, Rosie turned back to Spyro. "I have to first talk to Daddy. Come back in a couple of hours, and then we can go to the portal." Spyro nodded and left.
"Who was that, sweetie?" Neptune asked Rosie, as she walked inside. Her father was at the dinning room table sipping his daily cup of coffe. "You know I don't allow you hanging around boys." Rosie groaned irritatingly, and tried to ignore what her father has just said. She sat on the chair beside him, and replied, "No, he's just..." Rosie smiled, "a friend. His name is Spyro." Her father gasped, then asked, "The Purple Dragon is alive?" Rosie gave him a puzzling look, because she had no idea what he was talking about. "The Purple Dragon? ... Man! How many titles does Spyro have?!" She asked herself, but her dad sat up and began to leave.
Rosie ran to his side. "Wait, Daddy. I have to ask you something. It's important." Her dad slowed down. "Well, Spyro's from a different world. Charactoria. And you see..." She hung her head low, "I feel like I know him. So he has asked me if I can go back to his world to find out for sure. He feels like he knows me as well. Daddy, you have to let me go." Her dad went mute for a while, then began to shake his head slowly. Rosie was about to protest, but her dad cutted in. "No. No. No! My only daughter isn't going off in some unfimiliar planet with some boy. It can be dangerous! No, I won't allow it!" Rosie's mouth hung open in shock. Ever since she hatched, her father has been exaclty like this. Protective and paranoid, and it drove Rosie crazy. She watched as her father continued to ignore her pleading, but she was definately not going down without a good argument. "Daddy, Spyro's a hero!" Rosie pointed out. "Really he is. He has a title! Daddy, title. A TITLE! If I get in trouble, Spyro will be there to save me just like that!" She gave him a thumbs up.
Her father sighed in frustration. "That's not the point, dear. It can be dangerous, weither or not this Spyro is a hero. No one is allowed outside these portals!" He yelled. Tears began to stream down Rosie's cheek, and she became more desperite. She bit her lip, and tried her best to keep her emotions from slipping out, but she had lost it. "DADDY! PLEASE! Why are you doing this to me?! If Mom was here, she would understand! She'd want me to go!" She cried out. Her father kneeled down to try to whip a tear away from Rosie's cheek, but she pushed him away. She cried as she ran up to her room where she slammed the door shut.
Rosie locked her door, because she just wanted to be alone. She jumped into her bed and hugged her stuffed bunny tightly, fearing that she might lose everything, because her dad was right. The desicion of going to Charactoria was dangerous, but she had to go! What if Spyro never came back, and Rosie wasn't able to see him again? What if she did go, and she never saw her dad again? She groaned. "There is so many things in life that I haven't done!!" Rosie cried out. "I should have watched more t.v!!" Rosie layed her head on her pillow, and tried to remember of happier times she had where she wasn't expected to follow rules. Truth is, there wasn't many. Everyday was practically the same, where everyday is scheduled. Money, riches, and being a princess is great, but what's the point if you can't have fun with it? Rosie never had many friends, because they all thought she was stuck-up or annoying. Then comes Spyro. She wasn't sure if he was a friend. She was sure Sparx wasn't... Rosie yawned and soon she fell asleep.
Few hours later, Rosie felt like someone was tapping her on arm. "Rosie. Rosie, wake up." The voice said, and it sounded fimiliar. Rosie blinked, and waited for her eyes to ajust to the dark. "It's me, Spyro." It said again, and this time Rosie bolted up awake. Spyro was sitting on her bed, waiting for her to say something. She did... "How did you get in my room?!" She snapped, because she remembered locking her door. Spyro pointed at her balcony, and said "I came threw there. And it was hard, too! You didn't tell me you had attack dogs!" Rosie laughed sheepishly.
"So, are you ready to go?" Spyro asked, as he waited for her at the balcony. Rosie sighed and gave him a sad glance. "Um... Is something wrong, Ro?" Rosie got out of bed and walked torwards him, and nodded her head. She didn't have the guts to tell it to his face, so she kept her head down. "I-I... I can't..." She sputtered, as tears rolled down her cheek. Suddenly she broke down and tears started streaming down like a waterfall. Spyro didn't know what to do, because he never really had to deal with girls crying. Sparx soon came flying in threw the window. He looked at Rosie then back to Spyro. "Oh man, Spyro. You made her cry! ... I wanted to do that!" Spyro ignored him.
Rosie finally calmed down and she whiped the last tear away. "I can't go with you, Spyro." She answered softly. Sparx gave a silent "YES!" in the background. "And I saw that!" Rosie snapped as she glared at Sparx. She sighed and smiled. "But it doesn't mean I don't wanna go. Come on, Spy, we're going to Charactoria!" She went into her drawers and began to pack some of her belongings into her bunny backpack. Rosie felt like she was missing something, and remembered the picture of her mom. That was definatley something she wanted to take with her. But just when she was about to climb down the balcony, Spyro stopped her. "I thought you said you couldn't go." Rosie rolled her eyes and gave him a 'what-ever' look. "Spyro, I have learned that sometimes you have to break the rules. Now, besides that, who's going to be the distraction for the attack dogs?" Rosie asked for volenteers. Spyro and her both look at Sparx and smile...

"Hey, Ro, is activating a portal ilegal?" Spyro had asked when he and Rosie were walking towards the portal. Rosie nodded. "Yeah, thought so..." He said with not much enthusiasm. He glanced at Rosie, because she had been awfully quiet. "Do you feel like someone's following us?" Rosie asked finally. She stopped to look look behind her, but of course no one was there. It didn't take long for the three of them to reach the portal in the ally, but when they got there... Well... "The portal was working fine in the morning! Why did it just die out now?!" Spyro asked. Rosie pointed at the orb that was inserted at the top of the portal. It was burned out. Sparx rolled his eyes. "Greeeaaaat! Now we're stuck here with Rosie..." He spat sarcastically. Spyro sat down, disappointed that he was stuck here. He had really wanted to go back home.
"Give us a sign that this portal will work!" Rosie yelled to the sky, as she gripped her paws together. ( Birds chirping in background ) She groaned in anger. "Maybe, I can be of assistance." Said a voice from the shadows. It was a human! Rosie gasped and quickly got into a kung-fu position. "If you are going to attack us..." She began to threat. Then she just pushed Spyro in front of her, "attack him first!" Spyro rolled his eyes and ignored her remark. There was something strange about this human. For instance... "How come you can understand us. We're dragons... you're not..." Spyro asked, then without even turning around, he grabbed Rosie's paw that held a stick which she was going to defend herself against the human. The human laughed silently to himself. He walked out of the shadows in a complete different form... "Actually, I am a dragon. My name is Draganta the Dragonlord, adopted son of Braganza and Alarielle. It's nice to see you again, Spyro and Sparx." He said. Right away Spyro remembered his face.
"Wait, you know each other?" Rosie asked, not really getting the whole reunion. She looked down at the stick she had in her paw. "I quess I won't be needing this." She threw the stick at the floor and she put on a fake smile. "Rosie, this is Draganta the Dragonlord." Spyro said introducing her to Draganta. "He saved me from Gorbad Ironclaw and his warriors. He also, well, kept watch over me you would say. And he..." Spyro's talking was interrupted by Rosie's lack of listening. She was too busy looking in the internet ( from a computar that magically appears... ), reading over the Spyro fanfic to see what she had missed. "'Draganta the Dragonlord'." Rosie read. "Humm... Is it me or does everyone else have a title but me!?"
Spyro gave a sarcastic sigh. As for Draganta, he took out a small glowing ball. "That orb is burnt out, but by replacing it with a new one the portal will work just fine." He said. Spyro watched as he inserted the new orb in. In just a couple of secounds, the portal activated. "Rosie, why don't you go in first?" Spyro insisted, but Rosie wouldn't budge. She started shaking her head vigorously. "No! No! I change my mind! I don't wanna go!" She cried out. Spyro put his paws on Rosie's shoulders and calmy said it was going to be alright. Rosie looked at the floor, not wanting to show how scared she was to any of them. "Okay, but only if you hold my paw. I'll feel more secure that way." Rosie said. Spyro was about to completely deny that request, but Rosie is stubborn, so he held her paw anyway. He gave a threatening glare at Sparx, who was snickering, that clearly meant "Shut... up...".
But before the three of them stepped into the portal, Spyro turned to Draganta. "Aren't you coming, too?" He asked. Draganta replied he was, but he just needed to finish something before he left. Once the three little ones had entered the portal, Draganta faced the other direction. "Okay, Night. Come out. I know you're here!" He said in a threatening voice. Suddenly a dark figure jumped down from the top of a building. She was a black cat with bat like wings, and she smiled wickedly at Draganta. "Now, boy. It isn't any fun when you already know I'm here. I wanted it to be a- surprise." Night said, in a sort of flirtish voice. If you thought it was Draganta that was following Rosie and Spyro, then you were wrong. Draganta growled threatenly. "I'm warning you, stay away from the dragonling if you know what's good for you!" Night laughed then snapped her fingers. About a dozen of her shadow demons crawled out of the shadows. "Why would you think I was after the runt?" She said it like if she was accused of something she didn't do. Draganta hated her dry sence of sarcasm. Her humar was nothing to laugh about. "Oh stop playing dumb, you witch!" He snapped. "I know what you want."
The black cat disappeared and reappeared right in front of Draganta. She wagged her finger at him and said, "Calling me names won't help you, boy. Unless you want to be shredded apart by my demon, I suggest you stay out of my way." Draganta gave a frustrated growl, and then turned back to the portal. If he knew one thing, it was that Night the black cat wasn't worth it. But he knew if she ever happens to show her face and threaten the dragonling, she is going to need more than just a butch of stupid shadow demon.
A/N: Rosie was going to defend herself with a stick? That's... dumb, then again, this is Rosie we're talking about... Draganta, if you are out there, please tell me what you think. While I make my other chapters, I need you to inform me things about Draganta that I have missed. Please review, but no flames.
