Chapter 6
On a Date
When Daire, Sabra, Spyro and Barak Carry Aaron off to his room, Nuri and Cynder rush over to Draco. "Are you alright, honey?" said Luna, licking Draco's face. " Yeah! Just drained from keeping Aaron trapped. He is one powerful Dragon. No one has ever cracked my crystal prison like he just did. Those crystals are the hardest substance in the known dragon Realms." Said Draco, absorbing the crystal prison. "Will Aaron be ok, Ignitus? Draco's prison can sometimes absorb energy from the one that has been trapped in it." Explained Luna, Helping Draco up. "Yeah, he'll be fine! We're glad you did that or else he could have taken out the temple in 2 punches. He is a powerful dragon!" Explained Terrador. "I'm going back to my cave and getting some rest. See ya later!!" Said Draco, flying off towards the mountains.
After everyone had left Aaron's room, Sabra Stayed behind a little longer and left a note under Aaron's pillow. She then left the room and let him sleep. About 3 hours later, Aaron wakes and sees the note left for him. He carefully opens the envelope and it reads:
"Dear Aaron,
I know you've been under a lot of stress the last few days, so how about we spend a day doing whatever you want? I already told the elders about missing tomorrow and they said it was fine. Meet me in the main hall at 8:00 tomorrow morning and don't be late!!"
Love,
Sabra
Aaron silently cheered and put the note on the stone table in his room. He walked out to the temple gate and went down to the circular area and leaned up against a pillar. He gazed at the stars for a while, thinking about what he wanted to do tomorrow. As he thought on this, Draco walked down to meet him. "Look who's awake! How are you, Aaron?" said Draco, patting Aaron on the back. "better! I didn't know that the Dark master could still take control of me! I'm sorry I made you go through that!!" Murmured Aaron sadly. "Hey, it's no big deal!! The important thing is that you are alive" said Draco
–leans up against a pillar- "how about I train you myself?" Said Draco. "What? Me?" Said Aaron, pointing to himself. Draco nodded. "The day after tomorrow, meet me in the training room at 10:30 a.m. I'll teach you how to use Crystal to your advantage. Don't be late!!" Said Draco, heading back toward the temple. "Draco?" Cried Aaron. "Yes?" Said Draco. "Why are you doing this for me?" Said Aaron. "Because I can see that you are a special Dragon. No one has ever bested me at anything before." Said Draco, continuing toward the Temple.
The next morning, Sabra is waiting for Aaron in the main hall when Aaron shows finally shows up. "Ready to go?" Said Sabra, licking Aaron's face. "Ready!" Aaron smiled and followed Sabra to a stone table full of portable portals. "Where did you want to go?" Asked Sabra, looking over the portals on the table. Aaron spotted the portal to Tall Plains. "How does Tall Plains sound?" Asked Aaron. "Sounds Great!! Let's go!!" Exclaimed Sabra, grabbing the portal and throwing it into the air.
They walk through the portal and end up in the god's shrine. When they walked up the steps, they were greeted by Kane. "We thought you'd come. Follow me and we'll eat like Kings!!" Said Kane, leading them to a wide area full of fruits, meats and water. "Dig in!! it's all for you!! Consider it our thanks for Spyro helping us long ago." Said Kane. Aaron and Sabra eat all the meat and fruit and each of them take 5 long draughts of water from the stream. "Aah! That was delicious!" Said Aaron, licking his lips clean. "touche." Said Sabra, licking her lips.
They take off into the Sky and do aerieal acrobatics for a while, and then they dive into a lake. The cool water feels good on their scales and they chase after giant fish and have a great time, and, before they know it, it is already dark. They go to the highest hill, called Moon Hill, and lay on their backs and look at the stars. They share Jokes with each other and laugh as loud as they can. They stare at the stars for hours when Sabra breaks the silence.
"Hey Aaron?" asked Sabra, turning toward him. "Yeah, what's up?" Asked Aaron. "is it true that you were raised by the Dark master? I keep hearing that you were taught a massive amount of dark spells and Shadow techniques." Said Sabra, facing at the stars again. "Yeah, it's true. I was stolen from the temple as an egg by a Dragon named Dante and from what I heard from Daire, Dante was reborn and he doesn't look much older than when he stole me." Said Aaron, picking grass and letting it blow from his claw. "let's abandon this talk! I hate what happened in the past, and, if I ever see Dante, he will die by my hand!!" Cried Aaron, clenching his claws. "Sorry, Aaron! I didn't want to anger you!!" said Sabra, grabbing Aaron's claws with affection. "sorry for losing it!! I usually don't, but just thinking of Dante makes me angry." Said Aaron, relaxing his clenched muscles.
They have silence for 5 min then Sabra asks: "Did you like this day off, Aaron?" "it was perfect! The dinner, the flying, everything. Thank you so much!! I love you, Sabra!" Said Aaron, licking Sabra on the cheek. " No problem!! It was nothing!! Glad you had fun and I love you too!!" Said Sabra, licking him back. They interlock tails and fall asleep under the starry sky.
-story switches to dark master-
"Dante, Thanos, how is it coming with unlocking all the portals to the other realms?" Growled the Dark Master in a bad mood. " very good, Master. We've managed to unlock over half the portals already. In a matter of Days, we'll have all the portals unlocked!" exclaimed Dante. "Very good!! Keep working on the portals, Dante. Thanos, you take the Sorceress and 5,000 of my soldiers and go and Attack Tall Plains!! I sense that my former Apprentice is there! Go there and kill him and anyone who is possibly with him!! The Dark master laughed manaically. The time of Reckoning is soon at hand." Thanos takes the sorceress and the troops and passes through the portal into tall plains.
