Legends of Spyro Warriors from the Stars
Chapter 1. So begins my repairs on this story.
The battle had been draining on them both. Malefor had been defeated but it left them both exhausted. Spyro and Cynder flew over the newly reformed planet, content with one another and happy. They Had been flying for a few hours in an attempt to get back home from their recent battle. After flying for a few hours Spyro looked over to Cynder. "Hey Cynder, we need to rest. We just saved the world and we've been flying for several hours. We won't be able to stay up much longer". He stated, his wings beginning to cramps in some areas and go numb in others. Needless to say, it wasn't a pleasant feeling for him and if he was feeling it then so was Cynder. "Agreed, I'm hungry too. We can use that clearing up ahead". She said and angled herself towards a large clearing below about a hundred meters in front of them.
Spyro POV: Ancestors my body hurts! "Cynder, rest here, I'll be back with something to eat". I smile at her happily, watching her settle down into a large patch of grass before going to try and find a deer in the forest for our dinner. I figured we would sleep after we ate and I hoped I wouldn't accidentally burn it. I mean I usually had good control of fire element…if I still had one. Last time I fought a major enemy, my elements went goodbye. So, thinking on it more we may be eating raw deer. After a short time, I found a rather good looking deer, it was fat enough to be healthy, and old enough to have enough meat on it to feed two dragons. Pouncing on it I delivered a killing bite to it's neck, making it quick before thanking the ancestors for a good kill. I began to process of dragging it back and I have to say this deer is heavy as hell in my tired state. Halfway there I heard Cynder scream, making me drop the deer and take off in that direction. As I got closer I could hear a fight or some type of struggle. I broke through the underbrush and tree lines to see Cynder surrounded by what looked like a few surviving apes who were looking for revenge. There weren't just two or three either, it was about twenty of them surrounding her wielding everything from bows to swords.
Cynder POV: Watching Spyro leave she felt herself smile, they had won and saved the world…well Spyro had saved the world anyways. Either way with things now fixed and put back together she thought they might be able to have some peace for once. Cynder swore she smelled something funny a few minutes after Spyro left and turned in the direction of the smell. Her eyes widened at the group of apes in front of her. Her mind raced as she tried to figure out where they had come from. She looked them over, noticing they had both ranged and close combat weapons. She knew she was at a disadvantage as they approached her, she stood up in the hopes of defending herself but before she could do anything she felt some type of resistance around her legs. Her mind went into panic mode. She was bound by magic and couldn't escape, especially in her weakened state. At this point she did the only thing she could think of and screamed, hoping Spyro would hear her. The apes reacted and went in for the kill. Thankfully her mouth wasn't under magic restraint so she was able to let out a weak breath attack. It didn't do anything to sway them and missed entirely as she couldn't really orientate herself for a proper attack. A moment later she heard a roar as Spyro pounced on one of the smaller apes and killed it only for him to receive and arrow through his right wing. She damned their weakened state but prayed for a miracle as she watched Spyro turn and kill yet another one of the apes before he was stopped by a spear through his other wing that had a chain of some type on it, pinning him to the ground. "SPYRO"! She screamed in terror. This couldn't be the end for them both. She didn't want to die after just saving the world. "Cynder just run"! Her eyes filled with tears as she knew what might come next.
Unknown POV: "Viper team 0-1 this is Viper team 0-2 break. We have movement in the area about 3 miles north west break. Grid is Echo Hotel one four five six eight five five two break". Came the voice over the personal communication system in his helmet. "Copy that Viper team 0-2. Any further details"? Sergeant Gary Jackson A.K.A Start Streak asked as he looked next to him and motioned for his battle buddy to follow him. "Negative, we don't have a visual but just be careful and we'll meet you over there. Viper 0-2 out". Jackson moved through the bushes silently, his All Terrain Camouflage System hiding him from any searching eyes. He came to the area after a short sprint a minute later, his SRAMHEAP- 68 sniper rifle ready while his fellow soldier held a MR-41 marksman rifle. "Viper 0-2 we have arrived at the target area no sign of…correction. Movement, multiple contacts, they've surrounded something". Jackson flipped his selector switch from safe to semi as he targeted one of the apes. He could hear a scream of terror and he almost let his finger squeeze the trigger. "Viper 0-2, where the Hell are you? We have a possible hostage situation break". He said with a sense of urgency. "On the other side of the clearing, we have eyes on. Be advised there are two dragons currently wounded and bound up break". Jackson cursed silently. They had been here when the planet had started falling apart as the base and ships were in no danger from it but they knew about the war and knew that apes hated dragons. "On your shot Viper 0-1". Came the other recon team. Jackson let out a slow breath and slowly squeezed the trigger, sending a high velocity high explosive armor piercing round into one ape before it exited out the other side killing them both. At that point all Hell broke loose for the apes as Jackson switched to his AR-45 assault rifle and started killing the apes while his spotter unloaded with his MR-41. "Viper 0-1 has engaged"! He called through the communication link. "Viper 0-2 engaging"! Came the reply as rounds flew from the other side of the clearing, dropping the apes who were now attempting to run only to get shot before they could get far. One ape managed to fire an arrow into the trees, hitting Jackson but it bounced off his power armor and it's shields. The ape was promptly dealt with and went down with a hole in it's head. Less than a minute later the fight was over. "Clear"! He called and received the same reply. With that he and his spotter moved out of the trees and quickly to the downed dragons, keeping an eye out for additional contacts as they did. "We got your back. Are they alive"? Asked Viper 0-2. Jackson checked the black and red female while his spotter checked the purple and gold male. "Affirmative Viper 0-2. You need to call a drop ship though. They're messed up pretty bad out". With that him and his spotter set to work on preserving the beat up dragons, a small whimper coming from the female he tended to made him look to her face. He could see the fear in her eyes and the pleading gaze she gave him as if begging him not to finish her off. It was a look that made his heart wrench at the sight. "We're getting you out of here". He whispered as the roar of the drop ship was heard when it flew over and landed. Picking up the two dragons Jackson and his spotter went to the drop ship and returned to base for a debriefing and to get the two dragons medical care. "See you 0-1, Viper 0-2 is continuing with recon and patrol, out". With that the link went quiet.
Tell me what you thought. I'm repairing this story since it's not too badly messed up.
