It's been a while since my last post. I've kinda been a little busy.

Yeah, busy playing video games. Haha.

Hey! I told you not to tell anyone.

I have the right to say whatever I want.

Not as long as you live in my mind.

Well then I'm leaving.

Too bad you can't do that.

Fine then-

I FORBID YOU FROM SPEAKING UNTILE FURTHER NOTICE. Okay know that that is settled on with the chapter.

Chapter 4

Finding Hope

When Spyro woke up, he noticed that Azimuth and Cynder were still asleep. He decided to have a look out side. As Spyro approached the exit to the cave he herd Azimuth's voice say, "It's not safe for anyone to be out side alone, Spyro"

Spyro quickly turned around, and saw Azimuth standing in the same spot that he was laying in earlier. Spyro paused for a moment and then said "Well, what should we do then?"

"Wait for Cynder to wake up of course." Azimuth said simply.

Suddenly, a dark fog began to form in the cave's entrance, as corrupted dragons began to gather outside.

"WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LEAVE USE ALONE?" Azimuth started shouting. This woke Cynder up, and she immediately stood up and said, "What's going on?"

"They found us," Azimuth said. They then got ready to fight, but before the dark dragons charged into the cave a white energy barrier appeared at the entrance preventing them from coming closer. Spyro, Cynder, and Azimuth turned around wondering what created the barrier. At the end of the cave they noticed a female dragon.

The dragon was a pure white, except her eyes which were light blue. She looked to be about the same age as Spyro and Cynder. However she didn't have horns or a tail blade.

Spyro was the first to speak, and he said, "Who are you?"

"My name is Elpida." The dragon answered.

"How did you get in here?" Cynder asked.

"I came in while you were all sleeping. I often come here to get away for some time on my own." Elpida responded.

"Well I'm Spyro, and this is Cynder and Azimuth," Spyro introduced.

"It's nice to meet you." said Elpida. There was a short pause then Azimuth said, "Do you know of any where we could travel to from here?"

Elpida responded by saying, "We could go to my home in Starlight city"

"But how are we going to get out of here those dark dragons are still waiting to attack us out side?" Cynder asked.

"Leave that to me." Azimuth said.

"How are you going to-" Spyro began.

"The walls are made of ziznamite remember." Azimuth reminded them.

"Oh yeah," Spyro said, "Are you saying-"

"That I can draw strength from everything around use, yes."

"So what's your plan?" Elpida asked.

"Simple, all I need is that when I give the word you need to turn off your barrier thing, okay"

Elpida nodded in agreement. Then Azimuth began to charge up for an attack. As he did the walls started to glow the same yellow color as Azimuth's bracers and small yellow orbs of energy were flying from the rocks to Azimuth. Soon they were able to notice sparks of electricity jump off of him, but then land back on him as if they were magnetically attracted to him. Then, once Azimuth drew a large amount of energy from the crystal rocks around him, he started to run straight for the exit of the cave, which was still blocked by Elpida's energy barrier.

When Azimuth was a few feet away from the barrier he shouted, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!"

Elpida let her barrier dissipate. As it faded from view Azimuth ran straight through it and then jumped into the middle of the corrupted dragons, and released all of the energy he had been storing as he emitted a massive burst of lightning spreading out in all detractions. The blast killed the dragons as their bodies fell into the water below, and the dark clouds around the cave soon faded away.

"Hey guy, come out here, I can actually see the sun." Azimuth joked. Spyro, Cynder, and Elpida came outside to see.

"Wow, it's beautiful out," Cynder said.

"Yeah, too bad we have to leave," Spyro commented.

"Come on, we won't get to the city just standing here," Elpida said, "Fallow me." Elpida flew of in a direction that they assumed was towards Starlight city. Spyro, Cynder, and Azimuth did as she asked and fallowed behind her.

As they got farther from the cave the skies grow darker. After they had finally reached the outside of the city noticed that it looked a lot like Warfang except it was all white and there was a large center tower that seemed to be generating an energy barrier which surrounded the whole city, similar to the one Elpida used to stopped the dark dragons from entering the cave.

The four of them landed at the front gate. Although there was not an actual door, so the only thing that was keeping them out was the energy barrier. Inside, they saw a cheetah, but he was not a normal cheetah color, his fur was completely very light blue (almost white) except for his spots. He also held a white staff with a glowing blue orb on the top.

"KedemonasI have returned." Elpida said to the cheetah.

"Elpida where have you been?" the cheetah asked.

"I was at the crystal cave again." Elpida answered.

"Well, come in we will talk about this later." Kedemonas said as he used his staff to make a hole in the barrier, in which they could walk through. Just as the four of them started to walk, Kedemonas said, "Wait, who are the outsiders."

"Well," Elpida began, "This is Spyro-"

"Spyro!" Kedemonas said sounding surprised, "The purple dragon!"

"Yes," Elpida said.

"Well of course Spyro can come in, but the others must stay."

"It's okay," Spyro said, "they're with me."

"As the purple dragon wishes," Kedemonas sighed sounding slightly agitated. Then he allowed all of them to walk inside.
