Chapter 5: The newest Ascender

I woke up the next morning. I smiled, and remembered what happened last night. I finally admitted how I felt about Alia last night. She felt the same way like she'd said, and we became mates not long after.

Despite everything though, I had a bad feeling.

That's it? He came, took over the city, and I defeated him, all in a day.

He wasn't a challenge at all. The prophecy talked of a grey dragon, me, defeating enemies using different levels of the light form. This guy was untouchable, before, but weak against the light. Is the real challenge yet to come?

I need answers.

My thinking was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Get to the training room, there's another prophecy." Said Spyro

I wake up Alia, who greeted me with a kiss on my cheek.

"What's up?" She asked

"New prophecy, we need to get to the training room."

"I'll be right behind you."

I got up, and headed to the training room. Once I was there, I saw everyone was there, and a mole was writing down the new prophecy.

Alia was by my side and we all waited patiently until the mole finished writing.

Once he finished Spyro explained.

"Sleeping last night, Ignitus came to me in my dreams, and he had asked me to write this prophecy down. It's not good news, but it doesn't say we can't win.

He handed us the new prophecy. We all read it. It read:

Though the new evil seems to have lost the fight.

He has allies who can match the new form's might.

Train and train, and get the purple dragon to ascend.

Or try hopelessly and meet your end.

"Okay, so Spyro has to achieve the form that I have, or we all die. Seems fair."

"I suppose so, we need to train. We've been neglecting it, and because of that, Spyro was no match against Liatus." Terrador concluded.

"I still can't believe he, could've just swiped me and Cynder of. It's like we were nothing. Spyro complained.

"Spyro, Asyree has reached the form already, so we'll train him after we've brought you closer to the form." Terrador planned.

Spyro nodded but before he entered he asked me. This.

"How did you reach the form? Does the training do it?"

"Yes and no, it's not just the training, but the anger. You can actually achieve the form with little to no training at all, something I proved when the characteristics like the grey lightning and storms around when Val anger me. All it takes is anger. It's smarter to train though because the form is always stronger each time you train."

"Okay then, I'll try that. Anger…." Spyro concentrated

Spyro entered the training room and I knew it'd be a will beforehe came out.

…..

Alia and I were alone in the room. It was mostly silence because I simply wanted to relax. So did Alia, I could tell. She tried to fight Liatus to draw me out, and I'm glad I stole that potion or she'd be in horrible pain right now… or worse.

I wondered what Spyro is doing now.

Spyro's POV

I meditated. My training was nowhere near complete. I tried to focus on the form.

I remembered what Asyree told me.

All it takes is anger.

All I need is to get angry.

What if Malefore was able to keep Cynder under is control?

What if she fought him alone?

I tense up and concentrate further.

My purple scales lightened up. I saw just a spark of grey electricity.

Cynder. Dying at the hands of Malefore.

I remember being conscious enough to see Cynder attack Liatus, only to be knocked down to where I was.

I felt so weak, so helpless.

More sparks fly and my scales took on a lighter look.

One last push.

I was chained with elemental chains. I couldn't do anything. Cynder was in the same state, and Malefore walked up to where she was. She tried to move and yelled curses at him, but all the overlord did was laugh.

"Goodbye, you pest" He said as he charged a breath of Convexity.

"I WILL KILL YOU" I roared.

Immediately, storms form around the temple and surround the city as Spyro realized that he was done.

I did it. I've ascended.

Just like I thought, the power was amazing. I decided to hold up my hand and the lightning in the sky seemed obey it.

I pointed to where and the lightning struck it.

That's new

I tried out the Light breath and it is very powerful. It was grey electricity that, with the surface it touched, super-heated the area around it and, leaving ashes out of the dummy I blasted. The form also allows super-fast flying. Asyree told me that when he's not in the form, he could teleport. Was I jealous? Hell yeah! So, I'm wondering if I could teleport like he could.

I tried thinking of Cynder and closed my eyes. I warped to her in less than a second. She jumped when she saw my new look.

"You did it! How do you feel?" She leaned closer.

"Awesome! The power is great and my Mana feels infinite."

I look around to see that Cynder was at the…uh….what is this place?

It was all females. An area that had small lakes for bathing, an area with mud

"What the hell is this?" I say

"It's just been invented, and it's called a spa."

I let my inner immature self say "UGHHH, it's so boring."

"Spyro, it's for dragoness anyway" she says rolling her eyes.

"We'd never expect you to understand." A dragoness with pink scales added.

I relaxed and exited the form. As soon as I did so, all the dragonesses recognized who I was and swarmed me.

"Spyro! I love you!" one shouted.

"You saved us all!" another drooled.

"Be my mate!" another shrieked.

I looked over at Cynder, who looked like she wanted to

"Don't do it." I say

"I'm gonna do it."

"Don't do it."

"Imma do it"

"Come on Cynder" Alia said, coming from nowhere. She grabbed Cynder by one of her paws and wiped incinerated mud off of herself.

"Spyro, can you take us away from here? Before Cynder blasts everyone?"

"Cool, grab my paw" I say.

Once she and Cynder, now just glaring, held my paw. I reentered the form with no difficulty, and thought of the temple, and we passed through the pocket dimension. It was quiet, and filled with memories of mine. I decided that after seeing an old memory of him, I should visit my half-brother soon and fill him in on the events.

We teleported into the main room.

Asyree was talking to Volteer about something and even he flinched when he saw us come in.

"So,you can teleport too now huh?" He says

"Yeah, and it turns out, I can take others with me."

"That'll be useful, what do you say, Alia?" he teases.

Alia giggles quietly, clearly exited at what her mate was thinking.

"So, now what? Spy's achieved the Light. Sooooooo what do we do now?"Cynder says

"More training?" I wondered.

"Yes, but for now we relax, and help repair the city. With the damage done, thanks to the all-out attacks from our friend, it may take months to repair the damage." Volteer implies

Everyone looks at Asyree, who looks unapologetically back at us.

"Sorry."

"Well, then, good night, everyone. Be up early for tomorrow." Volteer orders

"Meh, probably not, I'm just gonna sleep in." Asyree declares

"Yeah I planned to spend the morning with Asyree" Alia says, looking seductively at Asyree, clearly making him a little uncomfortable.

"Noon then" Volteer says.

"Hour after." Asyree pushed.

"Deal."

"Okay, two it is."

"Fine."

Volteer walked to his room, muttering curses, so did Alia and Asyree. Cynder and I walked to our room.

"Soooo, we're alone again."

"Yep" I was sounding like Asyree.

"You wanna…do anything…? The night is young" She smiles.

In 10 seconds, we were high up on a mountain, green with grass, and the moonlight shining.

"Nothing can ruin this" I say.

"Nothing at all" Cynder agrees, leaning on her mate happily.

"SUP" a familiar voice says.

"Sparx?"

"Hey bro! How are you?" I say, too happy to see my brother.

"Not much. Just married, got my own place, and a kid on the way."

"All of that? In a month? Congrats bro." I say, and he hugs my nose.

"Sooo, I'm sorry ruined this for you too."

"You didn't ruin anything, Sparx." Cynder pipes up.

"You two have a kid on the way yet? I want to be an uncle. He says with a smirk.

I stare at Cynder, who looks back at me.

"Subject change. Tomorrow, Sparx, there's someone I want you to meet. He's a newcomer."

"I don't mind, I should be getting back home anyway."

"Alright, then, see you tomorrow." I say

Sparx waves and flies off.

"We should get back too .

"We should get back to, Cynder."

"Please, Spyro, ten more minutes of silence."

"Now that I can do." I say, holding Cynder closer.

Sorry for the delay, new chapter out tomorrow guys.
