Disclaimer: I do not own Draganta, Spyro, or related characters. I own Rosie the Dragon, though. I don't own Ember either, and I'm glad I don't! XD

Spyro: "Which reminds me, where IS Ember"
( Somewhere in a isolated area, Ember is chained to a tree )
Rosie: "Uhhhhhh... I dunno..."

Chap.9: Decisions

"Draganta, there is no need for another arguement with Tomas." Said Ignitus, but Draganta ignored him. Rosie tried to stop him as well. She jumped right infront of him blocking the door. "Ignitus is right. Look, I don't want you getting in any more trouble just because of me. I'll be fine..." She said softly, but inside she wasn't. Draganta just pushed aside Rosie, and went to see Tomas anyway. He had hurt Rosie badly, and Draganta is not going to let him get away with it.

As Draganta walked torwards Tomas's house, Tomas wasn't surprised at all to see him. "I suppose you're here to defend Rosie, aren't you?" He said calmly. "Well, I'm listening..."
"I'm not going to stand this decision no longer." Said Draganta in anger. "Rosie is a Princess, Spyro is a Prince and in case you haven't noticed I'm a dragon of royalty as well. I earn more respect from people in a hour than you do in a year. So to bring you up to speed, I'm a king and you're just a old wound that comes back to haunt outsiders!" Fire began to surround his body as he argued. "Rosie is just a little girl. How much trouble can she be? Don't answer that!" Tomas sighed. "I understand and I'm really sorry I lost my temper back there. It's just... Putting Rosie in danger will put us all in danger. Night is still out there." Draganta forgot all about Night. Rosie's fury attack just stunned Night, and she could be anyway by now...

"Night is someone we should all be cautious of..." Said Tomas. "There is a 60 percent chance Rosie could get killed, do you really want that, Draganta?" Draganta didn't answer, because he knew was right. Maybe taking Rosie back home is better... Thought Draganta. "I'll let you time to think about it, Draganta." Tomas said as Draganta walked out. "Oh, and also you're right. You are King, and you do earn more respect than me. People honor you for your loyalty and for your wise decision making. Lets just hope you're making the right decision letting Rosie stay..." Draganta never thought about it that way before. He was King, and he had a kingdom to protect. What if letting Rosie stay was a bad descision? What if it wasn't...?

---

As for Rosie, she had made up her own mind. She... was leaving... Rosie thought she had caused too much trouble so far, and it would be better if she just never came back. "Rosie, where are you going?" Spyro asked worridly. Rosie walked out of the Dragon Temple without facing him. She didn't want to talk to him right now. "Ro, wait!" Spyro ran to her, hoping she would stop. "Spyro, I'm leaving." Rosie finally said, which gave Spyro a shock. Spyro grabbed Rosie's paw before she had the chance to leave. "Draganta is settling everything with Tomas already. You don't have to worry." He reassured her, but Rosie yanked her paw from his grip. "No, you don't understand. I don't belong here! I'm not going back home, I'm just going... somewhere..."

"I don't understand..." Spyro said quietly. Rosie didn't understand either... "Spy, I just got to go. Maybe our paths will cross again someday. Goodbye Spyro..." Rosie smiled weakly then walked away. She couldn't dare turn back to face Spyro's sad expression. But she couldn't help it, she ran to Spyro to give him a huge hug. She threw her arms around his neck and bursted into tears. "I'll never forget you." She whispered. It was hard for her to let go, but when she fianlly did, Rosie ran off. "Rosie, don't go!!" Spyro called, but she didn't come back. He watched Rosie run until she disappeared.

A/N: Now for a song! Called "Breakaway".

Grew up in a small town.
And when the rain would fall down,
I'd just stare out my window.
Dreaming of what could be.
And if I'd end up happy,
I would pray (I would pray).

Trying hard to reach out.
But when I tried to speak out,
Felt like no one could hear me.
Wanted to belong here,
But something felt so wrong here!
So I prayed- I could break away!

Rosie ran and ran and ran. Not turning back. She feared if she did, then everything would fall apart. Rosie didn't know exactly why she was running. She knew that she was a real trouble in Charactoria, but is that the real reason she is running? She saw Ember smiling when she past her. "Took you long enough to figure out that no one wants you here!" She called, but Rosie ignored her. For all she cares, Ember can have Spyro. It's not like he means anything to Rosie. Or does he...? Rosie shook away the thought.

[Chorus
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly!
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky!
And I'll make a wish,
Take a chance,
Make a change,
And breakaway!
Out of the darkness and into the sun,
But I won't forget all the ones that I love!
I'll take a risk,
Take a chance,
Make a change,
And breakaway!

[End of Chorus

Wanna feel the warm breeze.
Sleep under a palm tree.
Feel the rush of the ocean!
Get onboard a fast train.
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway!

[Back to Chorus

Buildings with a hundred floors.
Swinging around revolving doors.
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but,
Gotta keep moving on, moving on!
Fly away, breakaway!

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly!
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye!
I gotta take a risk,
Take a chance,
Make a change,
And breakaway!
Out of the darkness and into the sun,
But I won't forget the place I come from!
I gotta take a risk,
Take a chance,
Make a change,
And breakaway!
And breakaway.
And break-a-way...

When Rosie finally took a break to stop, she looked back and saw that she couldn't see the Dragon Villange anymore. By now Draganta and Ignitus would be probably wondering where she is. She didn't care... Rosie looked up to the sky and sighed. She whispered, "I'm sorry I failed you, Mom..." Then she continued on running...

A/N: I was feeling upset when I was writing this, so I decided to write something sad. Well, please review, but no flames! If you have any ideas, I would like to listen to them. Any questions to be clarified? I'll be glad to answer them!
