Hey guys thanks for all the support on the last 2 chapters! I got a bunch of follows and favorites and it means a lot to me. Right now I'm sick so I might have more time on my hands to write some more chapters. I'm not sure how long this story will be but it won't be short I promise you that. Another thing I want to know is do you guys like long chapters or about the amount I have written in the past 2 chapters? Please let me know and remember this is my original idea and I will gladly accept any advice or ideas you may have if they follow the story format. Once again thank you for the support and lets get onto the next chapter!
Chapter 3 The Calm Before The Storm
Spyro awoke still feeling sore but a lot better in spirit since Cynder found him. He was about to roll over and sleep a little longer when he felt something. Cynder was sleeping right next to him as calm as ever but her tail was wrapped around his like she wouldn't let go for fear he would be gone the second she did. It made her felt at ease to know that he was there and would never leave her. As Spyro went on watching her he started to think about his own feelings for the black dragoness. "Cynder and I have gone through so much together and have accomplished many things. She has always had my back when I needed her and was always there to make sure I was ok. She is smart, witty, funny, and beautiful to. I love her but what if she doesn't love me?" He thought about this question a lot lately but always seemed to come to the same conclusion every time "I don't want to risk our friendship by saying something stupid and making things awkward between us." As Spyro was thinking of this he failed to notice a certain somebody starting to wake up. "Ok it's settled I will tell her when I feel the time is right or I know how she feels about me." Spyro thought confirming his plan to himself. He was so lost in thought he failed to notice he started mumbling. Cynder sat there and watched him not wanting to interrupt him to see if she could figure out what had the purple dragon this deep in thought. Spyro having been over this idea many times already stated out loud "Ok it's settled that's the plan." "What's the plan Spyro?" Cynder asked confused of what he was meaning by this. Spyro saw that he accidentally said it out loud and make a quick cover up. "Oh um the plan is to rest here for 1 more day before heading to Warfang. I haven't got all my strength back yet and I really should before we make the journey to the city." Spyro proud that he came up with that on the spot looked at Cynder and hoped she bought the story. She nodded her head and smiled "That sounds like a good idea to me. Hey I found some red crystals a few caves back when I was looking for you. I can get you some so you can regain your energy faster." Spyro smiled and said "That would be great. Thanks Cynder your always looking out for me." Cynder turned around and blushed and said "Don't mention it. It's what friends do isn't it?" She flew off without knowing what she said to Spyro was taken the wrong way. "Friends huh?" Spyro hung his head afraid that he found out how Cynder actually felt about him.
Cynder returned a few minutes later with a big chunk of red crystals that she picked up from the cluster that she found. She placed them in front of Spyro and smiled "There I did the hard part but do you want me to break it for you to oh mighty purple dragon?" she teased. He looked at her "Haha very funny. All jokes aside though thanks for this it will help a lot." As Spyro stood up to go break the crystal Cynder said "So whats the plan once we get to Warfang?" she asked wanting to know the whole plan. As Spyro finished smashing the crystal he looked to her "Well I'm sure once we get there we are going to have to tell our stories to everyone and explain what happened. After that I have no idea." Cynder smiled as the thought of being around those who don't see her as a monster for her past sins but as a friend was a cheerful thought. "I'm kind of excited to see everyone again. I'm sure they are worried that we haven't returned yet." Spyro thought about this to and agreed that everyone especially Sparx was probably worried sick about him. He hated to think that they thought the worst came upon them. He decided to clear his mind by going to find something to eat for him and Cynder. The crystal seemed to have done it's job and he was tired of sitting around all day. "Cynder I'm going to go find us something to eat." Cynder looked worried "Are you sure that's a good idea Spyro? I mean what if your strength isn't fully back yet?" Spyro noticed that she was worrying and assured her he was fine. "Cynder that crystal you gave me is making me feel ten times better since this morning. I think I can handle a little food gathering. Plus I've been laying down so long I need to get up and stretch my wings." Cynder smiled "Well if you insist but if you don't get anything make sure to be back before sundown. I don't need to come find you in the middle of the night if you can't find your way back." "You worry to much I'll be fine. Alright I'm off I'll see you soon. As he flew off Cynder watched him and awaited his return.
Well this is the next chapter still undecided whether or not to release 2 chapters at once. This was the last chapter till the new darkness emerges. Hope you are all ready for it! Also sorry for the lack of updates. I am really sick right now. Also Destiny came out and I have been playing that like crazy. I will try to update more frequently. This chapter had a little romance angst but I thought it was necessary since I don't see Spyro as the type of dragon to come out and say hey baby I like you XD. Well until next chapter please review what you thought and stay tuned!
