Music is Sanctuary from Kingdom Hearts II. Some of the words are supposed to be backwards but we'll ignore that.

"Ember, I'm sorry!" Spyro ran up and down the halls looking for Ember. "Please come back!" 'Where is she?' he asked himself. 'Maybe she's in her room.' He ran up the spiral tower and ran into the living quarters. "Ember!" He made his way to her room at the end of the hall. He tried opening the door. "Locked." He pounded on the door. "Ember, are you in there?"

He heard sobbing. "Go away, Spyro! I'm not meant for this world!"

Spyro immediately knew what those words meant. "Oh shit. Ember, no!" He kicked the door hard. No luck. "Come on..." He kicked it again and again, each time it shook a little more. On the seventh kick, the door busted open. Spyro saw Ember standing by the window with a knife to her throat. "Ember, stop!"

She turned around and held the blade at her neck. "Don't try to stop me, Spyro! I'm nothing! I don't deserve life!"

Seeing Ember like this made tears come to Spyro's eyes. "Ember, everyone deserves life! Especially you!"

"Howcould a decendent of the most evil purple dragon on the planet deserve to live? ! Tell me, Spyro! I'm an abomination! I'm related to the Dark Master through my mom, and my dad hates me! And here I thought I made a friend, a true friend! But then you stabbed me in the back!" The tip of the blade punctured a small portion of her neck. "Give me one reason I shouldn't end it right now!"

Spyro edged closer, more tears falling from his eyes. "Ember, please... Don't do this. I care about you, Ember." He took another step. "More than you realize."

Spyro was caught by surprise when Ember brought the knife to his face. Her eyes burned with hatred and pain. "How can I trust you, Spyro? How can I ever trust you after this?"

Spyro gulped. He touched the blade with one claw. "Wow... That's really sharp! Ember, you must understand. I wanted to protect you. I didn't want to break your heart by revealing the letter."

She grew angrier with those words. "Break... my heart? You fucking idiot! You only made it worse for me!"

"Ember, this isn't you. Put down the knife. You're not a killer."

"And how do you know that, Spyro? Eh? I'm the unwanted seed of the devil apparently. How do you know what I'm capable of?"

Spyro's fear faded. Hope and confidence replaced it. "Because I've seen who you are for the past four months. You're a kind and gentle person. You make people smile. You care, Ember. And I know you would never kill anyone, not even me." He put his claw on the knife while Ember looked at him in regret. He lowered it away from his face. "Let it go, Ember."

Ember shook her head. "No. I will not find peace." She took the knife away and held it to her own throat again. "I have nothing."

Spyro grabbed the knife again, she didn't resist. "Really? It's too bad about your room. Where do you sleep now?"

"What are you talking about? We're in my room! It's large and warm and comfortable."

"I see. You have a nice room. It's a pitty you have to go all the way to the other side of the temple to take a bath."

Ember was even more confused. "Where are you getting these ideas? I have a private bathroom right in this room! You know that!"

"Still haven't been meeting new people I see."

"What is wrong with you? ! I just made a new friend earlier today-" Ember stopped. She saw Spyro smiling at her. She realized what he was doing. "Spyro... You're right! I have plenty!"

"That's right, Ember. You were just blind to it." Ember had not even noticed that Spyro had long since taken the knife away.

Tears of guilt came to Ember's eyes. "Spyro..." She gave him an apologetic hug. "I'm so sorry, Spyro!"

"No, Ember. I'm sorry. I should have told you long ago." He rested his head on hers. "I care about you, Ember. I care a lot."

The two looked into each others' eyes. They started singing softly.

Ember: I need more affection than you know

Spyro: In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight

Ember: I need more affection than you know

Spyro: A sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away

Music inside

Ember: I need more affection than you know

Spyro: What's left of me, what's left of me now

Both: I watch you
Fast asleep
All I fear means nothing

Ember: In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight
I need more affection than you know
A sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music can tie
I need more affection than you know
What's left of me, what's left of me
So many ups and downs

Spyro: My heart's a battleground

Ember: I need true emotions
I need more affection than you know
I need true emotions

Both: You show me how to see
That nothing is whole
And nothing is broken

Spyro: In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight

Ember: I need more affection than you know

Both: A sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah

Ember: Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
I need more affection than you know
What's left of me, what's left of me now

Both: My fears, my lies
Melt away

They finished and stared deeply at each other. "Ember, there's something I've been meaning to tell you... I love you."

Ember's heart melted. She sighed deeply and rubbed his cheek with her paw. "I never knew if you felt the same way as I did... but now I do. I love you, Spyro!"

They came together and wrapped their tails together. Now that they knew how the other felt, there was no need to hide it. They brought their lips together in a warm passion.
