Almost there, almost done. A few more chapters than I'll be done. I didn't know I would take this long to complete this chapter. I had to think where to take this chapter. I was expecting this to be a longer chapter, but since I was thinking a lot about this, I decided to narrow it down and cut down some chapters.

The seven fighters stealthy had made it passed the once beloved Valley of Avalon, they walked and Hunter was showing them a secret way into Warfang; he told them they will enter through the secret entrance to the dragon city of Warfang that lead from the Valley. They walked towards a wall behind some ill-fated trees and saw a claw imprinted on a rock wall ahead.

Hunter placed his paw on the print and the wall opened up. "This way leads towards Warfang," he stated. "If we keep going, we'll be able to find the rebel army Spyro will lead and we'll be able to win back the city in a single day."

"Let's go, Hunter," said Cynder. "There isn't any time to lose now."

Hunter nodded and strode into the cave as the others followed.

For several hours, they strode in the cave without a glimpse of a fly in sight. Finally, they reached the end of the cave. From a hole carved from the cave, a back view of the dragon city of Warfang was shown.

"We are here at last," said Hunter. "Warfang, the great dragon city."

"I've only heard about the city but never seen it myself," said Spyro, gazing at the city's dark brutal shadow.

"The dragon city was built by the moles, to honor in their relationship with the dragons," said Hunter. "Now it's more of a ghost town than a standing city. When Malefor took over, the city fell into ruin and the residents barricaded themselves in their homes. Those who didn't give into fear took up resistance and are hiding in the underground caverns. That is where we must go now. Follow me."

Hunter led them down an alley. The buildings were all dead-looking and wooden blanks bolted to the windows. Plastered on the buildings were torches blazing in orange fire. The farther they went into the city, the dead the city looked. From top to bottom, the walls were cracked and grey.

"Where is everybody?" asked Ignitor.

"Hiding," answered Sunburn. "The residents here took refuge in the underground caverns or concealed themselves in their homes. Things couldn't get worse around here."

"It just did. Look," said Hunter, pointing at black torn flags waving in the air. "Those flags symbolize that Malefor is here."

"Great! A flaw in the plan," complained Cynder. "Now with him here, an army of Apes with be prowling these streets. Let's keep going."

Hunter nodded and ran and the others followed him. The group went through narrow alleys, hoping not to get caught. Going down a thin staircase, Hunter drew the group to a halt. Hunter peeked around the corner.

Apes!

The alleys were crawling with them. But they were lying on the ground, completely bored out of their minds.

Hunter took the group on a detour around a back alley. Before they knew it, they were close to an arena. A few Apes were down in there and dozed out.

Hunter pointed in one wide open walkway that lead directly toward the underground caverns. But an opposite direction that leads upwards caught Spyro's attention. He wondered if it led up the top of Warfang and to Malefor.

"How do we get past those guys, Spyro?" whispered Ignitor, unknowingly interrupting Spyro's thought.

"Live entertainment with a fiery blade," Spyro whispered quickly.

"What a good-HEY!"

"Come on, Ignitor, you wanted burn something else besides sheep. Here is your chance."

"Un-huh, no way. No how. I'm not fighting Apes."

"So you're telling that a knighted metal man of fire is cowering before a bunch of living Apes?" asked Spyro, mockingly.

"Me? A metal knight!? Cowering before Apes!? Apes bigger than me!? Why, I'll show you. I'll show you."

Ignitor pounced out and shouted his war cry again: "LLLLEEEEERRRRROOOOOYYYY JJJJEEEEERRRRKKKKIIIINNNNSSSS."

Dozens of Apes were promptly awoken by Ignitor's war cry. Pouncing like a pinball, Ignitor hit on the Apes. He caught them off-guard and ran off as the Apes ran after him. Then silence came in.

The group rushed out and Spyro went headed of them. "My friends, I have made a decision I need to make; I'm going after Malefor. It's time for me to revolve this and show my uncle I'm in charge in. I'm a Purple Dragon and I'm coming in direct contact."

"Spyro, what about—" said Cynder.

"Cynder, I need all of you rally my army and meet me on top of Warfang. I'm going after Malefor."

Spyro ran towards and disappeared from their site, going up the stairway he knows that will lead him to his uncle.

Cynder wanted to follow but they were stopped by Hunter and told them Spyro needs to do it on his own. He singled the remaining members to press onward while Spyro needed to go and confront his uncle.
