Chapter 13: Back home

(River)

I had fallen asleep crying a little. My brother had tried to kill me and I turned him away when he saw me and tried to save me. I couldn't believe I did that. I was never the violent type.

I was really trying hard to forget. Then for some reason I was out of it. I woke up in human form in a library. "Oh what now." I said. And it was then I noticed my friends, Sierra, Spyro, Cynder, And the other Guardians.

This wasn't good and I had a feeling that our time was up. Which as I began to think Ignitus walked out. "I see your all here." He said. "Ignitus!" Spyro said running to him.

"Good to see you to my friend." He said. Then the other Guardians went to greet their old friend. "I guess this is it eh River." Emily said to me. "I guess it is." I said.

Every one looked at us and we knew what was coming. "You kids have done more then asked of you. But sadly you must be going. Winter how ever must stay." Ignitus said.

Sierra came to me crying. "Please no I don't want to be alone again." She cried. Ignitus just looked at us. "I am sorry but they can't stay." He said. "Surly their has to be a way to call for them if needed then." Cyril said.

Ignitus gave it some thought for a minute. "I can see the elements haven't left yet so they may still be needed in the future." Ignitus said. This made me smile but I knew we were still leaving for now.

He walked away for a minute and came back with 3 bright red crystals. "These have been enchanted with a power spell. If you are ever needed again in this world we will simply bring you here with these." Ignitus said.

We each took one. "I am truly sorry for this. I will give you a moment." Ignitus said.

(Sierra)

I didn't want River to leave. He had been my best friend / brother for months. No one had cared for me like he did. It felt like I was losing a part of my existence.

"No please don't go I don't want you to." I pleaded. River just hugged me. I was in my dragon for he wasn't. "I promise we will come back. And then we will spend time catching up." River said.

"But I don't want you to leave. Ignitus please don't make them go." I asked still with tears. He looked at me and sighed. "I am afraid that if they stay any longer they will lose their human selves for good." Ignitus said.

I was on the edge as it is. I ran to River and tackled him. I was still crying cause I just couldn't take it. "It's ok Sierra. I wont fully leave." He said. He took off his necklace he kept.

He then put it on my neck. "As long as you have that I will come back. Weather it is in a day a week, month or even a year. I will come back I promise." River said.

He got up and walked to the others and Ignitus opened a door way. Kyle and Emily walked out waving. "River Please no." I said. He looked back and smiled. "Watch her for me till I get back ok bud." He asked Spyro.

He just nodded. "Don't worry Burn. We will take care of Winter." Spyro said. River walked threw the portal Smiling at me. I could see he was crying a little to. I tried to run for him but it closed before I could get close.

"Please don't leave me alone." I cried to myself silently. Then I woke up to my room and my parents. River's necklace was still around my neck. I held it close to me. "you better come back." I said as I went to sleep crying silently.

(River)

I woke up in the forest with Emily and Kyle right next to me. We looked our selves over and then I saw we each were wearing a crystal as a necklace. "I guess all that really did happen. Not a bad week eh guys." I said

They each looked at me and nodded. "River I hope you'll be ok." Emily said. "I will be fine. I know we will be called for soon. No one can keep us apart for long." I said. Emily and Kyle smiled and nodded.

"Well we better go surprise our families." Kyle said. "Ok see you guys later." I said. They then walked off and I looked at the sky line. I felt a small tear come down my face.

"I am so sorry for this Sierra. I really am." I said to myself. I then started walking to my house. But I then noticed that people were staring at me and talking to them selves.

I had forgotten that I had been missing for a whole week. I remembered when I saw a photo of me on a telephone pole. "Wow mom really must have been frantic just to find me." I said.

I didn't know it but I had a set of eyes on me. But the good thing about that week of fighting and training I still had all my skills and Dragon traits from that world. So I could sense some one following.

I decided to take the long way around to my home. I would pass the stores but I could use a good look around since I was gone a week. And being the Gamer I was I was going to stop at my favorite game store.

As I did thou I noticed a poster for a new Spyro game. But that was impossible. They said they were done. I walked in and I saw tons of kids lining up with this new spyro game in their hand.

I went to the section with them and picked one up. My heart nearly leaped out my chest. "No way!" I said aloud. The title was the legend of spyro and the other worldly hero's. And on the cover Photo was me and my friends in human form with Spyro and Cynder beside us.

"But we were only their a week!" I said. I didn't know I was talking out loud. Cause I all of a sudden heard gasps from people behind me. I turned around to see people starring at the covers and some starring at me.

I didn't know it but I was about to have to run home. I started walking out and I didn't look back.

I was about to be home when I heard a voice behind me. "Dude look. isn't that one of the new characters from the new game." A boy said. "No he is fake Philip this kid just looks like him" Another boy said.

I started sprinting to my home. I got inside and locked the door. I turned around and started to my room. I left my best friend back in the dragon realms and me and my friends are worldly known perfect.

I walked up to my room and saw it open a crack. I peaked in to see my mom in their looking threw my things. I could see tears coming from her eyes. "Please come back River please?" I could hear her threw the teary voice.

I had forgot my door squeaked when I open it so when I opened the door it made that sound and my mom turned around fast to see my face. she dropped a photo frame one of my school year books.

"R R River. Is that you." She said looking as if she was seeing a ghost. I sighed and nodded. "Sorry I am late." I said with a shy little smile. She ran to me hugging me until my eyes were ready to pop out my skull.

I looked around to see every thing was messed with as if to look and see why I would have left or for what reason I would have disappeared. "It's ok mom I am fine." I could feel hear tears hitting the back of my neck.

"River you don't know how worried I was. I was looking every wear I could for you." She said. I looked at her. "Ok mom. But i really want to sleep so can we talk in the morning." I said. Of course hun." She said and walked out. I took the crystal off and set it on the dresser and looked out the window.

It seamed like a dream. I was back home and our job was done. But I knew it was no dream. Cause I was still able to make fire in my hands and I had the Crystal Ignitus had given me.

I laid in the bed and thought back. That one week away from my world didn't really feel so bad. If any I felt more at home as a Dragon then as a human being. But I didn't really have a choice in the matter.

I closed my eyes and slept. But the dream I had wasn't so pleasant.

'Sierra was running threw the forest with scratches all over her. She was holding onto my necklace crying. "Oh Please I need you guys please." She said. Their was major glow then an ear splitting scream.' The dream did fade but I didn't wake up till the morning.

"So they finally came back then" A voice said. "Yes Richard sir." A female voice said. "Good. Tell Mathias he will get what he wants when they are trained and had their memories wiped." Richard said. "Right away." the girl said.

Richard walk to the other side of the room and turned on the light. A small dragon was attached to a table. "Well Steam. It seams like your little plan to stop me wont work." Richard said.

"You. You just wait. Your gonna. Have a fight now that they know." Steam said exhausted. Richard walked away with a smirk. "All the more fun then." He said walking out the room. The light turned off and the room went dark.
