The Ruins

The ride to the ruins was a long and uncomfortable one but along the way they had meet the rest of the dragons Whirlwind, Sunburn, Bash and Zap who each pleaged themselves to there respective portal masters. Most of the Dragon's flew besides Bash, Camo, and Zap who couldn't fly. Bash, Camo, and Rose sat on the edge on the balloon Bash throwing up bolders every so often and Rose litterally turned green. To ease the ride Hugo told our hero's the story of Master Eon's final battle.

"Master Eon was a great portal master. He cared about everyone and protected the core of light with all his being, he had found you four a week before his defeat he was going to summon you and train you to take his place but Koas attacked. Koas is a little kid but he is dangerous he created a large army of dark monsters and controls the darkness. Koas came a started a battle with us we were winning until he summoned a monster larger than anything I've ever seen and he distroyed the core of light. It was the only thing keeping the darknesss away. But before he was bannished from the mortal plain Eon sent you the elements of his power: Water, Tech, Life, Earth, Magic, Wind, Fire, and Undead. Now your all here we need you to help rebuild the core of light to save skylands," Hugo said looking up expectedly.

"Alright," Icy said "Where do we start?" The others nodded in unison.

"Oh thank-you!" Hugo exclaimed "I belieave we shoud first start with getting you all a good nights sleep, a good meal, and some new attire," Hugo said with smile.

"I'm not that hungry," Rose shrugged shuddenly her stomach growled loudly.

Icy laughed, deepened her voice and said "Epic fail!" Before laughing like a mad man. Hugo's spirts lightened and the rest of the trip to the ruins were enjoyable. Except for the fact that the balloon shook and shifted causeing screams of terrior, mostly from Icy she fell out like twice only to have Camron and Luke grab her before she fell as Rose got air sick and one of Bash's boulder's crushed a passing bird or five.

Finally the island had came into sight it was amazing there were ruins even in there tattered state the sun setting the trees and buildings left standing looked almost perfect. But it had lost it's whole Icy wanted to see it whole now that the only thing that was left was a large tower.

The balloon landed only after hitting a dead tree. The passenger's piled out of the basket "Oh sweet ground!" Rose said as she, Bash and Camo hit the ground face first.

"Rose, chill it's dirt," Luke said streching his legs.

"I know but I like dirt," Rose said standing as the rest of the dragons landed.

"Oh my, is what happened after we left?" Whirlwind asked walking to Camron.

"It seems so," Drobot said as he sat next to Icy.

Sadness seemed to flow through the skylanders and portal masters. Hugo jumped in suddenly "But now's not the time to be so sad! It's the time to be happy for what's left here for us!" Hugo stared at the tower "This is the tower where your rooms are and below it in the under ground basement is the mess-hall and training room's, we've got everything we need,"

"Hugo can..." Carmon paused "Can we see the inside?"

"Yes, yes come on I'll show you inside," Hugo said running tword the tower while the others walked calmly. Icy was the first to go inside looking around, the tower on the ground floor had an oak wood floor, a large stone fire pit in the center of the room surounded by a love seat and chairs. In the left lower corner of the room a hatch lead to what Icy guessed were the lower floors.

Icy looked tword the north had four doors the first door was a door that had healthy green vines around it and shiny crystal flowers on the vine the door itself had the same marks as Rose's arms. Next to that door was a door that seemed to shimer with a violet magic a soft wind blew the sparkles around the door it had Camron's marks. The third door had skulls surrounded my black magic, the skull jaw's hung open and inside small flickers of flame danced the door had Luke's markings. The final door were surround by shineing bronze gears that were dusted by dewdrops, on the front of the door were Icy markings.

Icy walked twords the door her hand shaking as her fingers brushed the worn wood; Icy felt a spark fly from her necklace to her fingertips and into the door. "Eek!" Icy screeked jumping then tripping over her own two feet Drobot caught her before she hit her head on the floor.

"Are you alright?" Zap asked running over to his portal master.

"I'm alright that was just weird," Icy said rubbing her hand.

"You most likely just used a small bit of magic to break the seal," Hugo said pushing up his glasses "You can enter the room now I'll be down stairs making something for you all to eat," Hugo said procedeing to the tapdoor.

Icy walked to her door and grabbed the handle and pushed it open her comrades opening there own doors. She saw that behind the door was a spiral stair case leading downwords she staled for a secound but Zap gave her a little nudge down the stairs. Icy walked down for what seemed like forever her heart pounding in her chest she suddenly heard rushing water she kept walking down and the sound got louder as she got closer to the found herself at the bottom of the stairs a small damp room with a door at the end; Icy hesitantly opened the door what she saw made her gasp.

The room behind the door had smooth deep black water smooth stone floors and walls. The first wall you see when you walked in was made of clear ice and behind was a large waterfall behind. The bed was next to the waterfall wall it was a simple bed that had a bronze bedspread and pillows; the head board was bronze also but had gears of many diffrent sizes and shapes decorating it. On the wall to the left of her bed was a large dresser and a closet that had the same design as the bed and the last thing inbetween both of them was a ice vanity. In the corner nerest the dresser was a deep blue victorain style loveseat, and a chair or two surrounding a small fire pit like the one in the main room. The wall to the right had a large silver work bench streaching almost the whole length of the wall; the bench had metals, gears, weapons and parts of broken gadgets littered the surface; tools were hanging on the wall. Lastly the final wall, the one where the door is located, had a empty bookshelf.

"Wow..." Icy said breathlessly she heard a chuckle and turned around her dragons sat near the door.

"Do you like it?" Zap asked.

"I... I love it!" Icy squealed jumping in place.

"Good we'll be upstairs... and then downstairs again just use the trapdoor when your done," Drobot said as he and Zap shut the door.

Icy took a deep breath in before trying to make a list of what she needed "Alright first I need something to wear and the clouthes will be in the," she snapped her fingers "Dresser!" icy walked to the dresser and pulled out the first drawer inside was bed clouthes. Icy shut the first drawer and opened the secound to find tops and pants Icy sorted through the drawer and found a blue off the shoulder long-sleave knit top and a pair of boot cut dark-blue jeans.

"Okay," Icy said after changing "Next I need," she looked at her bare feet "Shoes," she checked the next drawer to find summer clouthes on the left drawer and winter clouthes in the right. Icy opened the last drawer to find shoes of all kinds she picked up a a pair of tan boots and slipped them on her feet. She looked inside the drawer again to find a pair of tan gloves they were fingerless all except for her pinky and thumb she sliped them on .

"Alright lastly I need is something to fight with because I am not being eaten by those little beedy eyed Chompers," Icy walked over to her work bench and looked at the arrsonal she had laying around. "Now lets see," She picked up a large battle ax "Too bulky and heavy," Next as a long fencing sword Icy tried swinging it and it flew out of her hands. "Okay next," Icy soon found a regular sized silver sword the hilt had an frosted blue gem "Hm..." Icy looked around and found a belt with a sheth she put the belt on at a tilted angle and slid the sword into place then began the journey back up the stairs.

Once again she was in the main room she then proceded down the trap door when the scent of pasta hit her nose. "Icy! You're finally here!" Rose exclaimed running over to her best friend.

"Yeah my room was amazing!" Icy exclaimed "So what's for dinner?"

"A pasta Hugo made he calls it Mabu delight," Rose said Icy took in her friends appearence Rose now wore tan shorts, a green button down belly-top with the sleaves rolled to just above her elbows, tan boots like her own, her hair was now in pig tails and at her side were a pair of vines most likely weapons.

"It tastes amazing," Luke said putting the odd food in his mouth. Luke had also changed he now wore black pants, a red short sleaved colared button down, black boots, and had a twin pistols that seemed to glow red like burning molton metal.

"Why thank-you," Hugo said "My granny taught me how to make it. Camron would you like to eat?" He said turning to the young magic portal master.

"In a minute," Camron said nose deep in a book he now wore blue-jeans, a light blue shirt like Luke's, brown boots, and a staff with a lavander gem on top of two ax blades sat on his back.

"Now portal masters please eat tommarow you must head out on your first mission," Hugo said with a laugh so the portal masters and there dragon's sat down and ate peacefully (At least until Flynn came in) then headed to bed ready to have there first adventure in skyland.

Finally done I know this wasn't my best chapter but I had to have this to describe everything and the few things I had changed. Also I had uploaded my first verison of chapter two instead of my secound sorry. Now the if you were wondering what happened to Cynder well at the moment-

"Cynder let me go I don't want to be hugged!"

She's tormenting Spyro with hugs.

"But I WUV you!"

And has gone completely crazy because of suger overload. But I think *and hope* she'll be better by the next chapter.

"Angel I WUV you!"

NO Cynder I don't want a hug! Eeeek! R&R Guys!

"HUGS!"

Eeeepp!
