Me: Hey, guys. Sorry it took so long to update. I left my computer at my new house in Washington. We were staying there to get used to sleeping there.
Spyro: Yeah, so starting next week Emilie will have a hiatus but it won't be long. Emilie just needs to unpack her stuff to her new house so she needs to have another break from writing.
Cynder: Right. Maybe Emilie will write two or three chapters to this story.
Me: Right, so don't you all worry, I won't be gone forever. Here's the forth chapter to the Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night Retold.
Spyro and Nelly woke up in another dream world. This time, it was to restore Spyro's earth powers.
"You've come far, young dragon and human," the Chronicler said.
"What? Ignitus said you would help, but you've only lead us on a path to nowhere!" Spyro said.
"Our path through life is not always the path we choose," the Chronicler said. "Sometimes our paths are chosen for us...and it is our destiny to follow it. Wherever it may lead." So Spyro jumped onto the pedestal while Nelly got her ocarina ready. She knew one song that could relate to earth: the "Minuet of the Forest", one of her favorites. So she played that song as Spyro restored his earth powers. So Spyro fought the training dummies with his powers and he and Nelly reached the final spot in the dream.
"We want to know what is happening," Spyro said. "We've done what you asked of us, and followed your path."
"Yes...but a time will come when you will have to choose your own path...and you are not ready," the Chronicler said. "Open your eyes..." Then Spyro and Nelly saw another vision. It was a bunch of apes heading into the Well of Souls. They are heading there because it is their calling because the black hearted creatures of this world cannot resist its temptation. The Well of Souls beckon them as the Night of Eternal Darkness approaches. The Night of Eternal Darkness is the night when the Celestial Moons come together in a great eclipse that shrouds the world in darkness. And the Well of Souls is the pinnacle of its terrible shadow, stirring the spirits of the deceased from their eternal rest and permitting them to roam freely within the halls of the mountain, but only for a short while. And soon, the Night of Eternal Darkness will be upon the world. The Chronicler told the duo to find him in the Celestial Caves of the White Isle.
Spyro and Nelly woke up from the dream and saw Skabb, Scratch and Sniff outside the cell.
"Get up, lazy fools! It's time to bruise, not time to snooze!" Sniff said. "I...you know, I can't even look at you. You disgust me."
"Hey, me and you both, pal-y," Sparx said.
"Don't touch me," Sniff said, making Nelly laugh. "What are you laughing at, kid? Stop laughing!" So he took the trio back to the arena for the next battle.
'This is so much like Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door when you have to deal with Grubba in Glitzville,' Nelly thought.
"Are you ready for more?" Scratch replied, making the crowd cheer. "Then without further ado...please give a HAAAARTY welcome...to Spyro the Dragon and Nelly the human. And their opponent...needing little introduction..."
"The captain of crunch...the prince of pain himself..." Sniff said.
"The one and only...RAVAGE RIDER!" Scratch said. The Spyro and Nelly fought the Ravage Rider with Spyro's powers and Nelly's arrows. After the battle, Sparx said with all this hard work, the trio can get a room upgrade. Then the scavengers sent Spyro and Nelly back into the cell, but by throwing them. It gave Nelly another bruise on her knee and a cut as well from a hanging nail. So Nelly played the "Song of Healing" to heal these injuries. Then Mole-Yair came in with a scroll. He said it was from another prisoner.
"Yahoo! Fan mail!" Sparx said.
"Dear friends...there are whispers going about the ship..." Spyro read. "Word of your captivity has traveled quickly. Many of the prisoners are uneasy."
"They say that the Ape King has placed a bounty on you two...and all of the other dragons," Nelly read. "These are dark times. But know this, you have allies. I look forward to the day we can meet. Hunter of Avalar."
"That was thoughtful. I particularly like the part of the dark times and the danger," Sparx said. Then one of the scavengers came into the cell and told the trio it was once again show time. So he took them back to the arena for their next battle. Scratch and Sniff were already making their announcements.
"Guests of the arena! We have exciting news for you regarding one of the combatants..." Scratch said. "Shall we bring them out...there is a rumor of this purple dragon and human may be of great importance. What say you, dragon and human? What greatness can we offer?"
"The only thing great you'll be showing us...is GREAT PAIN!" Sniff said.
"Bring out the Executioner," Scratch said. Then the enemy revealed itself: a giant in armor with a sword and a metal shield. It laughed at the trio while pointing its sword to the trio. The battle this time didn't require Nelly's arrows due to the metal armor, so Nelly used her karate skills instead. After the battle, Scratch said he and Sniff were amongst greatness because Spyro and Nelly has defeated everything they can give the duo. But that didn't stop the scavengers. The trio has a bonus match...WITH CYNDER! It left Spyro shocked, but Nelly wasn't because she knew this game very well.
"AH! I told you she was evil," Sparx said. "Hehe look, my eye's twitching again."
"Just like old times, huh Spyro and Nelly?" Cynder asked.
"Cynder, we're not going to fight you," Spyro said.
"Not after what I did to your leg," Nelly said.
"Relax. I'm just trying to put on a show for the crowd while we figure out what to do," Cynder said.
"Don't trust her. She wants to eat me!" Sparx replied. So Spyro, Cynder and Nelly continued to circle each other until a bunch of ships came out of nowhere, launching cannon balls. Then Spyro and Nelly heard a cry for help. It was Cynder! She was captured by one of the apes! Then Sparx lead Spyro and Nelly to an opening where they can escape. But the ship was burning and the bottom part of it had no floor left. Then the trio spotted Mole-Yair next to one of the prison cells.
"Mole-Yair! The ship is under attack," Nelly said. "We have to get off this thing!"
"Spyro, Nelly, please, my companions are still being held prisoner...and the chamber gates are locked!" Mole-Yair yelled. "We'll need to find a way to open them."
"Okay. Sit tight. We'll come back for you," Spyro said. So the trio went to find the gates and unlock them to set the moles free. When their mission was done, Spyro, Nelly and Sparx spotted Mole-Yair, Exhumor and the other moles on a life boat.
"Okay, Mole-Yair, you're safe. Get far away from here," Spyro said.
"Merci, mon frere, thank you very much," Mole-Yair said. "I hope we can meet again, perhaps under better circumstances, hm?"
"Good luck, Mole-Yair," Nelly said after nodding. So the moles went to get to safety. Sparx said that the team must get to safety before the ship crashes. But Spyro and Nelly must find a map so they can find the White Isle and find the Chronicler there. After wandering around the ship, trio found a room with a desk with a map on it.
"Whoa, look at all this stuff," Spyro said.
"Oh sure...take your time. Look around," Sparx said, sarcastically. "It's not like we're about to plummet to our DEATHS in a heap of FLAMING..."
"Alright, you made your point," Nelly said, cutting Sparx's sentence. "Let's find the map."
"One step ahead of you, buddies," Sparx said. Spyro and Nelly looked at the map, but Skabb, Scratch and Sniff caught them. They didn't let the trio leave because they wanted to beat the trio up for all the trouble that has happened. After the battle, the scavengers got away through a broken window, so the trio followed the scavengers to fight them again. Finally the trio reached to the perfect battle spot.
"SUCKAS, you just don't know when to quit!" Sniff said.
"Then you don't know us very well," Sparx said. "I quit all the time...sorry...I thought I was gonna sound cooler..." So the trio fought Skabb until he was knocked unconscious and walked the plank, falling into the ocean. This left the trio confused.
"That ain't nothin'! We don't need him to take out these punks!" Sniff said. "I pity the fool who messes with us! Welcome to the world of hurt!" But Sparx punched Sniff in the face, causing him to fall unconscious. Then Scratch flew away. So Nelly jumped on Spyro's back and the trio flew off the ship. As the trio flew away, Sparx was feeling good after punching Sniff.
"Did...did you see me back there?" Sparx asked. "I like...BAM! And he was all...oof! An...which reminds me...where are we going?"
"We didn't get a good look at the map, but...there's gotta be some sort of landmark," Spyro said. But then he and Nelly passed out, causing Spyro to fall into the ocean while Nelly did as well.
Me: Well, that's it for tonight. I'm going to bed. I'll make the next chapter tomorrow. Don't forget to review.
