Spyro awoke with a groan and groggily opened his eyes to see that he was in the Infirmary. Looking around, he saw Skyler on the bed next to him and saw spikes on the other dragon's back disappear. The dragon then looked his way and Spyro noticed a deep scar on his chest.

"Glad to see I didn't do too much damage on you." said Skyler stretching, joints audiably popping and snapping.

"What happened to you?" asked Spyro still puzzled by how deep the scar is.

"Cynder."

"What?"

"I made you go dark with an illusion, I stop you from getting too out of control, and she attacks me. Although it is understandable why she did. I see why you hang out with her."

"How come I feel different?" asked Spyro.

"Have you looked in a mirror lately?" said Skyler getting off the bed.

Spyro walked over to a nearby mirror and looked at himself. He saw spikes, small ones anyway, jutting out of his shoulders, elbows, and knees, razor sharp wing tips, and his back spikes were longer, his claws were no longer serrated but sharp. His eyes had a tiny-highly unnoticable-tint of black and the scales on the end of his tail were a blackish-purple. He gulped at the sight.

Suddenly shouting was heard outside the Infirmary and something clicked in Skyler's mind. Spyro was going to ask Skyler what was going on, but Skyler had already left.

OUTSIDE THE INFIRMARY

"Buzz off ya Scaly Lizard!" said a voice with a bit of sarcasm as he tried to get away from an armored fire dragon.

Skyler walked up behind the creature and cleared his throat at which the creature turned around.

"AAAAAAHHHH! Takemeaway! Putmeinprison!" said the creature climbing onto the fire dragon's head and latched to the back of his head.

Skyler burst out laughing at the creature's fear and the creature gave Skyler a death glare.

"What're you trying to do?! Give me a heart attack?!" yelled the creature.

"Even when you're older you're still a chicken, Dax." sad Skyler still laughing.

"I'll show you! [Voice deepens as he goes Dark] Come here!" said the Ottsel pouncing on Skyler.

"Ow! Hey! Dirty fighting! Dirty fighting!" said Daxter.

"You want dirty?! THIS is DIRTY FIGHTING! [CHOMP!]"

"OW!"

"What is going on here?!" yelled Spyro and Daxter reverted to normal clinging to Skyler's neck.

"AAAAAAAHHHH! Donteatme! Donteatme!" screamed the Ottsel after looking at Spyro.

"What's his problem?"

"Dax, this Spyro." said Skyler pointing at the purple dragon.

"Really? Hmm...Oh, well. Come on Skyler, we need to get you back." said Daxter jumping down, but Skyler staye put.

"Sorry, fleabag. I'm not leaving."

"Wha-Why?"

"You guys can deal with enemies without me."

"Fine. [Mutters] Came all the way out here for nothing!" said the Ottsel walking away.

4 HOURS LATER

Skyler was relaxing at the edge of the volcano when suddenly he fainted.

"Skyler, I have troubling news." said Ignitus as he walked around the hour glass.

"This is begining to be a regular thing, isn't it? I'm now the only one you'll contact, but let's get this over with."

"Spyro is struggling with the darkness inside him, you MUST help him or every dragon is doomed!"

Skyler awoke and arced towards WarFang and arrived in an alley were Spyro was stumbling. Grabbing the purple, he arced back outside WarFang.

"Spyro fight it. If you don't everybody will die!" said Skyler going bipedal and crossing his arms.

"I...I can't..." said Spyro his scales flickering between black and purple.

"Don't let the darkness control, or else everybody you know will suffer!"

Suddenly Spyro went dark.

"[Sigh] Guess I have to do this the hard way...Blaze...Hunter...Attack plan Alpha-Gamma 551." said Skyler.

Two arcs of lightning then flew into Skyler and a bright light blinded Dark Spyro and a shockwave knocked him off his feet. When his vision returned he saw a Bio-mech dragon, but it was familiar.

The right side of the dragon's face was metal with 2 scars and a cybernetic eye, the left was organic with the Shattered Eye. His wings were metal but the membranes were organic, his armor was greenish-orange with hints of black and white, the chest scar was also visible. When he spoke the most noticable voices were Skyler's, Blaze, and Hunter's plus a ton of others.

"We are one. We will free you Spyro, we will not fail. We will defend our friends and WarFang with our lives." said the Bio-mech dragon.

Spyro roared with anger and charged. Skyler charged also, both locked paws and a shockwave exploded from the collison, alerting the soldiers on the wall, who instantly blew on warning horns.

Every dragon who heard the horns rushed to the walls and what they saw shocked them beyond belief. They saw a black dragon attacking a Bio-mech dragon and every civilian dragon hoped for the black one. The noticable dragons watching were Cynder, Shard, Flame, Ember, Crux, Talos, Maxios, Pyre, Vulcanus, and Crater.

Both the Bio-mech and the black dragon had their paws locked in a struggle with strength. The ten dragons landed a few feet from the battle and gasped at who the black one was...

"Spyro..." whispered Cynder.
