Chapter 12: Secrets out.
(Ember)
I was so happy. Spyro was finally back. Our friends were home and River and his friends were able to keep their promise. But then it hit me that they would now need to go home.
They had only just come a week ago and they just learned their element and how to control every thing. Now they were learning how to fly. which probably wasn't going to help much cause they would leave.
It then also hit me that Sierra or Winter, I don't know what she goes by anymore, Would be left alone. She would have to watch as her friends left. I knew how she was feeling. I was so upset when Spyro never came back.
But what could I do for her. The only thing I could do was make sure every thing would be ok for her. But the good thing is we were kept busy from this because the whole city was throwing a party tonight to celebrate Spyro and Cynder's return.
This was good. Because it gave the friends some time to relax before they had to go back. And I was with Flame helping set up for the night. "Flame do you think we will ever see them again after today." I saked.
Flame looked at me and could tell that I was saddened by what was happening. "Well I am not to sure. We accomplished what we set out to do. I really don't understand what will happen next." Flame said.
I just sighed. I had grown rather used to our new friends. It felt like they were actually dragons and friends to me. But if it hadn't been for the fact they were human then every thing would be fine.
I looked away and starred into the distance. I was sad but I guess I knew that this was going to happen. But i was going to make this night the best one they had. Then Sierra came up to us.
"So I was wondering it you mind if I sing tonight?" She asked. "Sure I hope you got something in mind." I said. She shook her head to show she did have something in mind.
This mad me smile. She was going to play a song for her friends to hear. I knew this party was for Spyro and Cynder's return. But I was going to say my piece for our new friends before they left.
(River)
It was hard for me to come to terms with all this.
We had found Spyro and Cynder with very few fights as possible. But it didn't help that this Mathias guy was trying to take over this world. It didn't help that we had to leave either.
But I wasn't worried this night at all. I was focused on the party the town was throwing. I had cleaned up the best way I could I had never seen a Dragon party before and I was excited to attend my first.
It was almost time to go into town for the night and all day I haven't seen Sierra. I wanted to walk down with her. I was really looking forward to the night. I knew she wouldn't be coming with us so I was going to spend the night with her.
I had walked out to see my friends waiting. "So can you believe it River." Kyle said. We were walking down the hall to the town. "No I can't. We found Spyro and Cynder and now our job is done." I said trying to calm down.
"I know. It almost makes me want to stay but I am sure our families were worried about us by now." Emily said. She had this glow about her. I didn't know if it was cause she had the electric element or not.
"Well what ever happens lets remember. We had fun here." I said. We walked out to see that Spyro and Cynder were already out their and the party had started.
"Well lets get going." I said. And as I started walking Kyle got to the left of me and Emily to my right. I began to smile as we got closer to the party I sensed something was up.
But as we entered we got a surprise of a life time. The guardians after seeing us made an announcement. "Every one. WE must thank our brave young dragons that risked their very life's to find our hero's." Terrador said.
Then every one turned to us and started cheering for us. I was taken by shock. I didn't know that finding these two were a big deal. But apparently it was. But then I saw Sierra walk onto the podium they built.
"And here to sing for the party to night in the young Dragon Winter." Blizzard said as his daughter walked up. It hurt me a little. Sierra my best friend was a dragon in reality. But I was happy she finally found were she belonged.
Then a musical beat started kicking up. And I recognized the song immediately. "She isn't going to sing that song we all listened to is she." I asked Kyle. He had the same expression.
Sierra started singing "I guess she is" Emily said. We just listened to it. She had created this in school because she was thanking us for being us her friends. I never thought she would do it.
But when she finished she ran up to us and hugged us tightly. "I am happy that you all are my friends you know that." Sierra said.
But that was also when every thing started going wrong. I looked up in time to see what I thought was never going to happen. I saw that Humans were jumping over the wall and running our way.
"SPYRO WE GOT COMPANY!" I yelled charging. hearing that every one turned to see what I did and started panicking. It was then the ones in the city already hiding began their attack.
I had jumped on one and knocked him out with a claw to his side head. Emily and Kyle were breathing range attacks at their targets. Spyro and Cynder had taken to the air and started dive attacking the intruders.
The Guardians had also come in and started to protect the city as well. I couldn't believe Mathias was that crazy. He was attacking the city in an attempt to get me and my friends.
But I guess he never expected to have a fight this hard. "Burn can you stay close to us." Emily said. I just nodded and started fighting back. It was also then that we paused.
Three people came out facing each of us. We all knew who they were. "I told you that I wouldn't quit." My brother Nash said. I starred at the others. "Now make this easy and come willingly." Kyle' sister Rachel said.
And I knew Emily's dad any where. Matthew was ready to kill by the looks of it. "Sorry but we don't have any plans to see Mathias." I said. That did it. All three ran at us.
They had weapons made of metal. Figures as guns wouldn't do anything. The bullets would just bounce off us. My brother had a sword. Kyle's sister had daggers and Emily's dad has a spear.
I knew that if they had weapons Mathias made them to wear they would hurt a dragon. I had to keep dodging my brother's swig. He was persistent. he was really trying to find me if he was willing to attack War-fang.
I blew a fire ball at him but he deflected hit at a house to his side. He then swung. I barley dodged it. He managed to get a small cut in my side. I could fell my blood come down my side.
I then used my tail to attack. It had a small spade like thing at the end so I knew it would hurt. But he kept jumping out the way. I had to knock him down quickly.
He came at me again this time cutting the side of my head. I was getting slow and he knew it. I couldn't let this fight drag on. When he charged me again. I shot into the sky and dived on him slamming him into the ground.
I made sure not to kill him but to knock him out. I looked and noticed that Emily had knocked her dad out but Kyle was down and about to be stabbed. I shot a fire ball in front of his sister sending her back far.
When she was about to hit then ground a person caught her. I looked and it was Mathias. "Come Dragons and other creatures of this fair city and hear me." He said.
This stopped all the fighting around us. Every one of his forces went behind of him. And the Guardians walked up behind us. "You have 4 people that belong to us." Mathias said.
"We have no Idea what you mean." Cynder said. Thats when I realized we never told Cynder off our true selves. Or did my friends and not tell me.
"Oh really you don't." Mathias said. He then held out his hand and 3 lights shot out hitting me, Emily, and Kyle. "Burn!" Spyro yelled. I forgotten I had told him our fake names.
When the lights faded Emily, Kyle, and me were standing in our human forms again. We didn't know how Mathias did this but the effect was what he expected. The other dragons and creatures began backing away from us.
Ruby and Blizzard got in between Sierra. Even thou they knew that they sent her to our world. "You see. You have had impostors in your ranks." Mathias said. I was not to happy with what was about to happen.
I then saw my brother and Matthew get up and see us. Their eyes went wide. "RIVER!" Nash said running to me. I don't know how but as held my hand out and a ball of fire flew at his feet.
He just looked at me completely shocked and terrified. But then I could see that it also made the others uneasy. "We knew about this you sad pathetic creature." Cyril said.
This got shocked reactions from every one but Spyro. He walked up next to us. "it doesn't matter. They helped save me and Cynder. As far as I am concerned they don't belong to you." He said.
But then Cynder got away from us. I guess she didn't know. "Regardless. If you don;t want any further trouble hand them over by tomorrow or face war." Matthias said.
With that he and the other humans including our family members left. As we turned around we saw angry expressions of the other creatures and Dragons. Hunter even had his bow trained on us.
Cynder then walked up. "So is it true. Your one of those things." She asked with anger. I knew what had to be done. "Yes we are. But you have to hear us out. we had no idea that they were gonna attack." I said.
She then charged but Spyro got in front of her. "It doesn't matter what they are." Every one gasped. "They helped fine us. And they protected this city with their very life's. As far as I am concerned they are no threat to us." Spyro said.
Then I looked and we started changing back into our dragon forms. "See. It doesn't really matter that they are humans at all. They saved Cynder and me. And I believe that defending our city proved that they are more dragon then human." Spyro said.
They all started to relax and gave it a bit of thought. I was still pretty shaken that Cynder almost impaled me. "Every one please go to your homes. We must be ready for anything." The Guardians said.
We all left to the temple with Spyro and the Guardians behind us.
When we entered Spyro spoke. "It may be calm now. But I think you guys should head back to your realm." He said. I sighed. "That wont work. They are here to take your world spyro." I said.
"And how do you know this River." Terrador said. "They told me when they captured me. They plan to kill you all off and take this world as their own." I said. They looked at us. "Get some rest young dragons your going to need it for what lies ahead." Terrador said.
we went back to the hut and laid down. I noticed that Sierra wasn't their. I remembered her real parent took her away. "So what are we going to do now River." Emily said. I shook my head. "I don't know Emily I really don't know at this point." I said.
