Chapter 17-(A Horrifying Truth)

The day went by quickly and Spyro was happy that everyone actually liked him. Spyro was glad that Sparx didn't have to witness him being evil and killing everyone. But Sparx still liked him no matter what. As everyone went to sleep, Spyro wanted to make sure that he wouldn't fall for that trick again. He tried his best to stay up, but it was no use. Spyro soon fell asleep. Spyro again had a nightmare. He was evil again and he was killing everyone. He couldn't wake up for it took over his mind. Spyro was watching in horror as his evil self was killing everyone. He saw himself grabbing a hold of Cynder. She was screaming for help but Godith was not there, neither was Mark nor Elva. Just the dead elders. As the evil Spyro was about to turn Cynder into evil once more, he saw again the purple dragon. He attacked the evil Spyro and send him flying to the wall, knocking Evil Spyro out. "Son, listen to me. You must meet me. It is important. Sorry about what happened last time, bring Ignitus with you. Leave now." Spyro woke up. He ran to Ignitus and woke him up. "What is it Spyro?" asked Ignitus. "We have to meet this purple dragon. He says it is important and that you should come with me, to meet him." said Spyro. "All right fine, but this better not be another trick like last time." said Ignitus. Mark came and asked what was going on. Spyro explained everything to him. "All right fine, you can go, but Ignitus and I will be there, making sure that it ain't another trick again. The three of them left the cave and flew to the temple. It was dark but the Sun was rising slowly. When they arrived they saw a dragon on the Temple Balcony. "Spyro are you sure about this? I have a feeling that this will be another trick." said Ignitus. Just then apes circled around them. 'Oh no it is another trick' thought Spyro. "The Dark Master wants you three." said the ape commander. "Fine then, we will go quietly." said Mark. Spyro and Ignitus thought this was a trick again, but with Mark around they feel safe. They all went to the Temple and the ape commander left and told the Dark Master about the news. "Excellent, they might as well be useful." said the Dark Master. Spyro and Ignitus were scared out of their wits when they saw the Dark Master. Mark was standing still like a stone wall. Mark wanted to attack but he knew it wasn't a good idea. "I need you young Spyro, to come with me. I have something to show you that might surprise you." said The Dark Master. Spyro looked at Mark. "Go, but be careful." said Mark. Spyro went with the Dark Master and followed him to the main room of the Temple. "What is it that you want?" asked Spyro. "Well I feel a little good today, and I thought that you might as well find out who your father is." said The Dark Master. "Yes I do." said Spyro. "Very well. Lay down, and close your eyes. I will show you." said the Dark Master.

Spyro felt the Dark Master sending Spyro back through time. When he woke up, he found himself on the Temple Balcony standing next to a Purple Dragon. Spyro looked at him and asked "Who are you?" The purple dragon was shocked to see a young purple dragon standing next to him, out of nowhere. "Well who are you?" asked the purple dragon. "My name is Spyro." "Spyro? It can't be! My newborn will be named Spyro. That means you are my son! But where did you come from?" asked the purple dragon. "Well I don't know but I think I was send back through time." "It doesn't matter. You are my son from the future." said the Purple Dragon. "Then it means that you are my father." said Spyro. "Well son, I am Falzar, just so you know my name." "Well Dad, what are we going to do now?" asked Spyro. "Son, first we must tell your mother and the others that you are my son from the future. Let's go find your mother." Spyro followed his Father, Falzar and met his mom, Elva. "Elva, guess who has arrived?" said Falzar. "Who?" she turned and looked and saw Spyro. "Is that our son?!" "Yes sweetheart it is! He is from the Future!" Elva ran towards Spyro and hugged him. "My son, my sweet, dear, beloved son!" Elva continued to hug him and kiss him. "Well Mom, it is nice to see both of you here. Where am I, the actual me?" asked Spyro. "Oh yes, your egg. Come with us darling." said Elva. They took him to the vault and showed him where he was. Spyro was surprised to see where he was and that there were so many other dragon eggs. "See son, that is you over there. You have the most comfortable place in the whole vault." said Falzar. Spyro couldn't help but wonder. If his father is the Dark Master, then why is he so nice? They looked out the window and say that it was getting dark. "Well it is time to sleep. Let's go darling." said Elva. Spyro followed his mother, Elva and his father, Falzar to where they were sleeping. Spyro was surprised to see where they were sleeping. They were in a large room with a very large bed. It had the best view from the Temple. "Come now son, we are going to sleep." said Falzar. Spyro was in between them when they were on the bed. "Mom, Dad? Will I see you tomorrow? I don't want to leave yet." said Spyro. "Darling, baby, you will see us tomorrow. Don't you worry." said Elva. So they all slept peacefully.

The next day came and Spyro woke up to see that he was still in bed with his parents. 'I'm still confused, if the Dark Master is my father, Falzar, then why is he so nice?' thought Spyro. A knock came from the door and opened. Spyro saw Mark and Godith. Mark looked a lot different. His hair was much shorter, but it was still gold and had the spiky style. (Super Sayain 1 style) He still had a well-built body. Godith was less evil looking. "Well good morning Spyro, how are you feeling?" asked Mark. "I feel fine. I feel happy." said Spyro. "You don't need to tell us why or how you got here. As long as you have a good time." said Godith. Falzar and Elva then woke up. "Morning sleepy heads." said Mark. "Oh good morning Mark, Godith, Son." said Falzar. "Time to eat. Let's go son." said Elva.

They all went to the dining room. There Spyro met Ignitus, Cyril, Terrador, and Volteer. He was happy to see them all alive. "Falzar, who is that?" asked Ignitus. "Why Ignitus, it is your godson, Spyro!" said Falzar with such joy. Spyro couldn't believe that Ignitus was his godfather. Spyro was greeted by the other Guardians. They all sat together and were asking Spyro how he got here. He told them that he was sent back through time by someone. He didn't want them to know it was the Dark Master, and he didn't want to see Mark in another rage.

A few days went by and Spyro loved his parents more than ever. Spyro was worried to tell his father that he is the Dark Master in the future. "Son, what's wrong?" asked Falzar. "Dad the reason why that I went through time and came back is because, you in the future are the Dark Master." said Spyro. "Me? The Dark Master? HAHA! Now that is a little weird. Maybe it is someone else son." "No Dad it really is you, I just can't believe that you are the Dark Master. WHY?!" asked Spyro who had a tear in his eye. Elva wiped it off him. "You want to know why son? The reason why is because, the dark side has so much power and I have so much pride in controlling the Dark." said Falzar. Spyro then saw Falzar's scales turn black. "You have no idea what it is to be the most powerful, strongest dragon in the world!!" Spyro knew that wasn't his father's talk. He would never say that. Elva gasped in horror and she held Spyro close to her. "Don't you dare talk or come near our son." said Elva coldly. "Don't listen to your mother son, join me and get everything you have always wanted. If you don't I will kill you." said the Dark Master. Spyro started to cry and Elva took him far away from his father. "D-D-Dad, you just can't be. YOU CAN'T BE LIKE THIS!!" yelled Spyro while crying. The world that he was in was slowly disappearing and then he fell asleep.

When Spyro woke up, he was not back at the temple, except this time he was at a golden Palace, where saw his godfather, Ignitus. "Spyro are you all right?" "Yes I am fine. What happened?" asked Spyro. "The Dark Master has made you fall asleep and you experienced his memories haven't you?" "Yes Ignitus. I learned that you are my godfather, in which case I am happy that you are, but I also learned that the Dark Master is my father. Why is he like that?!" said Spyro with tears in his eyes. "Spyro you will learn the real truth from Mark. The Dark Master fooled you into thinking that he is your father. You will learn more from Mark." said Ignitus. "Well where is he?" asked Spyro. Mark then came with Elva, Godith, Cynder, and Sparx. "Mark what happened?"asked Ignitus. "The Dark Army reached the cave that we were in. I rushed there in an instant, and fought with all my might. But there were to many. So I grabbed everyone and flew away from the mountain, to here the Golden Palace. It is a good thing that the Dark Army and Master do not know where this place is. We should be safe for certain here." said Mark. "Mark, I must ask you something."said Spyro. "If it is about your father then, no the Dark Master is not your real Father. Falzar is your real father, the purple dragon that you always saw in your dream. He will contact with you once more and try to talk to you personally." said Mark. "But if Falzar is my Father, then why is he the Dark Master?" "You will learn why, when Falzar, your father calls you." said Mark. The Palace door's opened and everyone turned and looked to see who came out. A golden dragon named Leon came and greeted them all.
