If I owned Spyro or Naruto, the 3D movie would've come out, and would be a box office hit and Sasuke would've been Gibbs-slapped by Naruto at the Valley of the End.
Naruto: Fangs of War
Chapter 2: The New Objective
The Hokage's Chambers...
When Tenzo landed from his Body Flicker, his three passengers weren't so calm and collected as he was.
"Whoa! That was awesome!" Naruto shouted, bouncing on the balls of feet from the high-speed experience. "Let's do that a-" he started before the tell-tale sound of vomiting.
Spyro and Cynder were on the floor, their stomachs emptying their near-nothing contents. "Never," Spyro started before he vomited again, staining the wooden floor of the room.
"Again," Cynder finished for Spyro, the both of them heaving like they ran a marathon. They never had moved so quickly in their lives!
"I apologize, everyone's first experience with the Body Flicker Technique is never pleasant," apologized the bear-faced ninja.
"Naruto, Dragons, come with me, there isn't much time," said an old man urgently. He was a light-skinned man with short, spiky, gray hair under a large red and white and a long, thick goatee. His face betrayed his age, as there were numerous wrinkles, pronounced cheek bones, a wart near his left nostril, and liver spots. He was wearing a fiery red cloth with a white sash under a white robe. He quickly put on the hat he was holding in his left hand, that was the same crimson as the garb.
"What is it Old Man?" Naruto asked urgently and worried. Spyro and Cynder were surprised that this old geezer was the leader. They would've thought that he would've thought he would've retired by now. Sure, the Guardians were old, but they were the strongest dragons other than themselves.
"I'm afraid someone on the council found out about it and leaked what has happened to the civilians. They've called an emergency meeting. Come with me, all three of you," said the Hokage urgently.
"Lord Third, what should I do?" asked the ANBU still here.
"Shadow us and protect our guest from any and all threats. Triple S-Class priority, Tenzo," he said seriously and with hesitation. Triple S-Class meant that their protection status was seconded only by the reigning Kage. Only X-Class was more important, but that was only if the Hokage themselves were fighting for the objective, only last used thirteen years ago, during the Nine-Tails Attack. Needless to say, Tenzo was pulling out all the stops.
"Yes, sir," he said before he went through some hand-signs stopping with the clone sign. "Wood-Style: Multi-Wood Clone Jutsu!" From his arms and fingertips sprouted tree roots and they went to multiple spots on the floor. In moments, the roots began to take human shapes, just a few seconds and they were indistinguishable from the ANBU. They soon disappeared into the shadows.
"Wow, first shadows, now wooden clones. What else can you people do?" Cynder asked bluntly, in awe of the technique that was just seen before her eyes. She and Spyro looked expectantly for an answer to the old man who just smiled warmly.
"A ninja most important tool is deception, dragons. Remember that in your time here," he said.
"Old Man, how was that guy able to use Wood-Style? Only the First Hokage could do that," Naruto asked, wondering if the First Hokage was brought back to life.
"I'll tell you and our companions later. We have a bloody meeting to get to," he said grumbling. He looked back to the dragons and winked, "That's sometimes literal, too."
They just looked deadpanned at the dark humor. And followed closely behind into the long hallway to their left.
"Now, there are a few rules for these meetings, young ones. I'm assuming you're young, dragons," the old man said, walking at a civilian's version of rushing. "You are not to speak unless I give the order or allow you to. Do not move away from my side unless I say so. If you follow these rules, I can guarantee your lives a little bit more," he said completely serious.
Cynder was about to open her mouth in defiance and mouth off the Hokage, but was thankfully interrupted by the orange-clad ninja. "Guys, seriously. My death is called for every meeting," Naruto said humorously, but you could feel the seriousness laced in with it. Cynder closed her mouth.
Within moments, they reached a door, but waiting for them was someone they didn't want to meet. "Hello, Danzo," said the Hokage warmly.
The man addressed as Danzo looked like a good toss of a ball will kill him. He was extremely bandaged, and had a cane. He also walked with a noticeable limp.
"Hello, Hiruzen," said the crippled war-hawk. "I see these are the strange 'demons,'" he said emphasizing the word, "that everyone's talking about that young Naruto has summoned."
Cynder looked crestfallen. It was bad enough that she was called the "Terror of the Skies" back in her own world, but to be called demon too.
"Danzo, sir," this caught the cripple's attention immediately. "We are Dragons, not demons. I kindly ask you do not call me or Cynder that again," Spyro said diplomatically.
This caused the war-hawk to good-naturally chuckle. "I assure you, that I did not mean anything by it to Cynder or you...?" he subtly asked his name.
"Spyro, the Purple Dragon," he said.
"Interesting name. Are you young for dragons?" asked the war-hawk.
"Thirteen years old, we are. I'm not sure how long we can live, but my mentor was well over a hundred-fifty," he said truthfully.
"Amazing, we humans can usually live until 80. Ninja aren't as lucky, as most die in the field in their twenties," said Danzo, amazed with the Dragon's lifespan.
"We have a meeting, Danzo, we shouldn't waste time with idle chit-chat," said Hiruzen.
"Ah, well, you know us old fossils," Danzo, said chuckling, as well as Hiruzen. "Let's go, old friend," he said as they stepped through the door, Naruto soon behind them.
This left Spyro and Cynder in a state of deja-vu.
Flashback...
A massive door stood before them. Behind Spyro and Cynder, was a darkened, red sky, from their view above a volcano.
"Are you ready for this?" Spyro asked Cynder.
"I'm scared," she said truthfully. Spyro looked to the door which behind, Malefor was waiting.
"Just stay close to me," Spyro said, taking the first step towards the final battle.
Flashback End...
"Just like last time, huh?" asked Cynder.
"Too much, like last time," agreed Spyro. They didn't say anything else; the hall was silent except for the muffled yells from the council room next door.
"Let's do this better than last time," he said wrapping a wing around Cynder in a side hug.
She smiled warmly at the action and licked Spyro muzzle in response. "Let's."
When they stepped through the door, the room came silent. To their left was a low table with the most mix-match people sitting on one side of it. The first two seats were empty; in front of them were crest of the representatives. There was a man with white eyes, pupil-less eyes and black hair, in a very formal looking robes; his crest was an odd flame symbol. The next they couldn't see except for spectacles, his entire body covered in his garb; his symbol was an insect.
The next was a man that looked like he was about to fall asleep, his face scarred and hair in a spiked pony tail in what looked like a VERY dirty coat; his eyes however, was sharper than any blade, and analyzing everything about them. His symbol looked like a flowing wall.
The next has spiky dark blond hair, with a straight ponytail in the back, dressed in a flak vest under a long red robe. His symbol kinda looked like a brain in a head. The man after his was the most intimidating.
He was huge, and wearing armor, he has long, red hair and was eating ships from a bag; his symbol was two triangles divided from each other by a line.
The next was the only woman at that table and she looked downright feral, beside her was a massive dog with an eye-patch. The crest in front of them looked like two red fangs.
Another was a tall, fair skinned woman with shoulder-length, blonde hair with a single bang which falls down into her face. She also has green eyes and wears a white dress with three red circular designs. Her crest was a simple dark circle.
On the other side was pretty generic. A bunch of people that looked weaker and much more formal. All but one man was fat; the women were skinny and winter trees and were looking at them with disdain, all of them but this one man. He was the least formal on this side of the council; he has short, straight hair. He had an emerald green, sleeveless shirt that had a wingless, long dragon, design on it. He had a sword on his back and was wearing the same head plate that was on Naruto. He smiling at them warmly, filling Spyro and Cynder with hope.
They turned behind them and saw the Hokage on a raised platform, with Danzo to his right, and Naruto behind him standing beside him, worry in his eyes. Below the raised platform, but on the same level as Danzo was another man with glasses and a old woman in a kimono. The Hokage nodded subtlety and began the council meeting.
"This meeting of the United Council of the Village Hidden in the Leaves has begun. Lord Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi presiding. What is the purpose of this emergency meeting?" said the Old Man in a voice that commanded authority.
The fattest man on the civilian side stood up, although the floorboards creaked under his weight, the feral woman on the opposite site flinched at the noise as well as her companion. "This meeting is to call for the immediate and public execution of the imprisoned Nine-Tailed Fox as well as the demons it has summoned to aid in its escape," he said pointing to Naruto, then at Spyro and Cynder.
Spyro and Cynder were shell-shocked that their deaths were being called for immediately, not even an hour in this world. Hiruzen spoke in their defense and rescue, "I have told this council time and time again, Naruto Uzumaki is not nor ever will be the Nine-Tails that is imprisoned within his being, he his only the prison for the beast. As for the Dragons before us," he said waving his hand to the purple and black dragons in the center of the room. "They were summoned via contract that was retrieved by the First Hokage himself from the Fox Den at the Valley of The End. If they were demonic anyway, the Nine-Tails would have been freed the moment they arrived in to this world," said the Hokage in confidence.
"Yes," said the shinobi on the civilian side. "The seal is more powerful Storage Seal. I've worked with seals enough with my daughter to know, that the scroll will not become the kunai."
"Then what if they free the Fox in time of their stay? Surely if they were those servant animals they would have disappeared by now," said an arrogant civilian woman. Not only did Hiruzen glare at the woman, but so did the hooded man and the feral woman. "Summoning Contracts are a part of shinobi life. The Inuzuka and Aburame Clans rely on their companions for battle and fellowship. They are no servants. If you want, I can invite Enma to the meeting again?" he said.
The council paled, even the clan heads. The last time Hiruzen summoned Enma, they ALL were reminded why he had the two titles, "God of Shinobi" and "The Professor," even in his old age, he was still a devastating opponent.
"N-N-No, Lord Hokage, sir," the woman sputtered out of fear.
"Now then. Let's let the dragons explain why they're here, starting with introducing themselves to the Council," he said looking at the dragons with a hint of a smile and Naruto giving them the thumbs up.
Spyro and Cynder gulped and instantly latched one another's tails for courage. They had never been in a formal situation before. Spyro began for them first. "Honored Council, I am the Purple Dragon, Spyro, this is my mate-to-be, Cynder," Spyro began.
"I'm assuming that 'Purple Dragon' is not just naming the color of your scales, but a title," said the man with spiky ponytail.
"You're right, Shikaku, would you kindly explain the purpose of your title, Spyro?" asked the hooded man to Shikaku's right.
"It does name the color of my scales, but it also shows my potential power. A Purple Dragon can do almost anything and can use any element and power, including manipulation over time itself," Spyro said truthfully. The council gasped at this, including Danzo, power over time itself?
"Does this mean you can go back or forward in time?" asked the blond man to Shikaku's left.
"No, sir, mister...?" asked Spyro.
"Inoichi Yamanaka is my name Spyro," he said, identifying himself.
"No, Inoichi, sir. I can only slow time down and see glimpse of the very near future. I may also be able to stop time in a small isolated area that I'm in, I'm not sure," said Spyro.
"Please continue, Spyro. Your title," said the Hokage.
"Yes, um, I can use the four basic elements, Fire, Electricity, Ice, and Earth," he said. "Both Cynder and I can use the element exclusive to Purple Dragons, Convexity, the element of space, matter, and energy," Spyro said, enticing another gasp at the council.
"You must be very powerful, how old are you?" asked the man with white eyes.
"Both Cynder and I were born in the Year of the Dragon, which was thirteen years ago," said Spyro, with Cynder nodding.
"For someone so young, yet so powerful, I'm surprised that your home let you go," Danzo said, thinking one being's trash is another's jackpot.
"Well, he wouldn't like the fame and constant fan-girls, and I won't be a pariah like you made Naruto to be," Cynder said in her confident, defiant voice for the first time before the Council.
"Why would he have fan-girls, and you be a pariah?" asked the woman with the canine companion.
"He saved the world from the monster that made me his puppet!" she yelled with tears in her eyes.
"Before we came here, we saved our world from being completely destroyed by the Dark Master, Malefor, the Purple Dragon before me," said Spyro.
"A Purple Dragon has the power to destroy a planet?" asked Danzo.
"Apparently so. But I'm not as powerful as Malefor, nor would I try to destroy anything," assured Spyro.
"How do we know that, lizard? You should be executed here and now for the power you hold, just like that boy!" said a fat civilian.
"It is not the power you have, but the way to use that power," said Spyro sagely.
"Also, councilman?" interjecting Shikaku.
"What, Nara?" said the woman next to the fat guy.
"Given that you and your fellow civilian councilmen revealed the secret, you just broke a law that the penalty is death," said Shikaku, with a lazy smirk. "Earlier, you revealed Naruto's status as Jinchuriki, meaning, you broke the Third's Law,"
"L-L-Lord Hokage, you must be reasonable," the spoiled civilian stuttered. "These things were summoned by the demon; they wouldn't be here if they didn't know of its weakened form."
"I agree Lord Hokage, they aren't human, like the boy, they must be killed. The purple whelp even said it has the power to destroy the entire planet! We must kill them for the safety of not just the village, but the world over," pleaded his friend.
"No, you do not have that power. The right of execution is only for the Hokage to decided," said the aged shinobi firmly.
"Then you are not fit to be Hokage a moment longer Sarutobi!" said the civilian council other than the man with the headband signifying him as a ninja.
"Our savior, our Fourth Hokage once said that it is the ninja that serve the people of this village. WE, the civilian council, ARE the PEOPLE," said the civilian on the farthest end.
"This is treason, against the village, against the Hokage, against the Land of Fire, and against the wishes of Minato!" said the muscled man on the traitor side of the council.
"You are betraying us Buki! You may be a Guild Master, but you are also a ninja, so choose, your lunatic leader that will be taken down, or us that will rise to power," said the toothpick woman.
Buki leaps back and takes out a pair of rather large scrolls, "Lord Hokage may I request a C-Rank mission?"
"In fact, I'll assign it to you now. Execute the civilian council under charges of treason and conspiracy to overthrow the seat of Hokage," said Hiruzen looking much like his alias of "God of Shinobi."
"You can't!" said the fat man scared.
Buki slammed the scrolls on the ground and began to look at his targets. "Ninja Art: Twin Rising Dragons!" He shouted as he slammed the scrolls down in to an upright position. An explosion of smoke gave way to two intertwining dragons made of smoke to rise up. When the smoke cleared it was plain to see him in between the rotating scrolls. He reached to one of them in a blink of an eye and threw it towards the civilians with precision and speed, with many more following soon after.
"No!" shouted Cynder as she went to intercept the weapon, rising up and spinning as she did so. She channeled her energy around her body and spun, manipulating the air around her into wind, then gusts, to create a vortex that moved seemingly faster than she moved in the center. The first weapon got caught in the vortex and another, score by score; each weapon was handlessly caught by Cynder as she increased speed.
When Buki's technique was complete, he glared at the dragon, albeit mildly. "Why did you stop me, dragon?"
Cynder glared at the man, then the Hokage. "They will not die tonight," she stated simply.
"Lord Hokage these people are traitors, but should they really be killed?" asked Spyro, pleading for no bloodshed.
The Hokage contemplated this for a moment. The rising tension was thick enough that it could almost be seen in the air. Each person was anxious, wondering what the outcome will be. He took a long drag on his tobacco pipe before finally speaking. "Spyro, for someone so young you show a great potential for wisdom, and it takes great strength to act on that wisdom, I almost made a foolish decision," he turned to the civilians.
"Treason and conspiracy; however, is no juvenile crime either," he said glaring at them at a level only a Kage could. "You are to be taken to ANBU Torture and Interrogation department for questions and investigation on how far this corruption is rooted. Afterward, you will be imprisoned for no less than twenty years, that is my final decision," said the Hokage, stunning everyone in the room except Danzo.
"Old friend, still as soft as ever," thought the war-hawk solemnly, thinking he'll have his own men inside the prison take care of them.
"Bear! Take them away!" shouted the Hokage as the ANBU shadowing the Dragons emerged along with his clones, and carried the civilians away.
"Thank you, Lord Hokage," said Spyro, bowing his head, and draping his wing as far as it could in front of his chest. Cynder mirrored his action as well.
The Hokage smiled at this. But frowned as he remembered something. "There is still the matter of the contract," regaining the attention of the room from the previously bowing dragons.
"The contract would have taken you back to your world by now if you didn't do so yourselves in the first place," said the Hokage troubled.
"Perhaps we should have Master Jiraiya take a look at the seals making up the contract, he is the world's leading Sealing Jutsu specialist," proposed the white-eyed man.
"A pleasant idea, Hiashi. Jiraiya, get over here if you would," he called out to the room. Jiraiya made himself clear and known, as he appeared right beside Spyro and Cynder, startling them both. He was a tall man with spiky, white hair that went to his waist, and two bangs that went down to his shoulder, framing his face. He also had two red lines that made him look like he was crying blood, a wart on the right side of his nose, as well as a different metal plate on his forehead than any of the others they had seen around here. It had what looked like horns and a symbol that looked like it was written in ink. He was wearing a thin, metal suit (perhaps made of chain) under long green robes, similar to what Hiashi was wearing. Those two pieces, in turn was worn under a red coat with yellow circles, and a scroll on his back.
"I was not aware of your presence, Jiraiya-sensei," Hiashi stated with only a hint of admiration. "I'll need to train my eyes better."
"To be able to call upon your clan's kekkei genkaiis a feat in itself, Hiashi. You've grown since you were a Genin beside Minato and Teuchi," said Jiraiya proudly.
"The Fourth and Old Man Ichiraku were on the same team as you?!" Naruto pointed accusingly at him.
"Yes, Minato Namikaze, the Yellow Flash of the Leaf; and Teuchi Ichiraku, the Butcher Blade of the Leaf; alongside Hiashi Hyuga, Head of the Hyuga Clan of the Leaf; were all trained under the envy of men everywhere, the Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku, the Gallant Ninja, JIRAIYA!" he shouted to Naruto taking up his pose.
The entire council merely shook their heads all thinking that Jiraiya hasn't changed a bit. Naruto, however, was in contemplation, "Envy of everywhere, gallant... I got it!"
"So, what you're saying is that you're a pervert..." Naruto asked with a deadpanned expression. The council room went silent, all of them staring dead at Naruto, their faces expressionless. Only a moment later did anything happen.
Jiraiya face-vaulted, and the rest burst into laughter, except for Jiraiya, who was the indirect target of their laughter, and Naruto, Spyro, and Cynder, whom were outside of the inside joke.
No one was safe from the contagious laughter, even the ever-stoic Danzo was wholeheartedly chuckling. After five minutes of the council laughing, Jiraiya brooding and pouting, and Naruto, Spyro and Cynder looking clueless.
"Naruto, my boy, you never cease to surprise us all," said the Old Man affectionately.
"Indeed," agreed Hiashi, still chuckling.
"Says the guy whose clan with their 'all-seeing eyes' couldn't see a kid in 'kill-me orange' paint an entire monument, in broad daylight until he was finished!" jabbed the woman with the dog. This made the room again burst into laughter, this time, Jiraiya's and Hiashi's roles were switched and Naruto was included in their laughter.
"Who is this kid, I'd like to get his autograph for Sparx," asked Cynder chuckling a little bit.
"That kid would be me, NARUTO UZUMAKI! THE NEXT HOKAGE!" he shouted pointing at himself with his thumb.
Jiraiya was looking at Naruto fondly. "He may have Minato's body, but he has Kushina's spirit."
"Now then," Jiraiya said, clapping his hands together for emphasis. "Let me see the contract, kid. I should be able to look at the formula," he said holding out his hand for the scroll.
However, Naruto couldn't miss another jab. "Better not mess up my scroll, Pervy Sage," he said as he reluctantly handed him the scroll. This brought about another round of laughter. Spyro and Cynder still the awkward ones.
Jiraiya grumbled something under his breath about "Damn disrespectful brats" before he set to work. He grabbed the scroll by the opening flap and spun around, unraveling it, swinging it similar to a morning star. When it hit the end with a loud snap, he flung it down in the center of the room. Revealing...
"An hourglass?" he asked to himself, though everyone heard him. Surely enough, there was an hourglass symbol, right where the array for the summoning.
A Summoning Contract has halfway through all the scroll paper a Sealing Array that which, when unraveled, will reveal a formula for the Summoned Clan. Each clan has a unique key code which is embedded into the array, so that when one signs the Contract, they are keyed into that code, as to prevent mix-ups, such as summoning something you aren't contracted with, or being sucked into the Summon Clan's domain, like Jiraiya was.
He slapped the hourglass and pumped chakra into it, and it started to glow. Bright.
"AH! MY EYES!" Hiashi screamed as he shielded his eye and dived under the table, and cut his chakra flow from his eyes completely and locked the nodes along the eyes, temporary blinding him until he unblocks them. The rest without an ocular jutsu shunned away from the light. Spyro and Cynder covered themselves with their wings. When the light died down, all were surprised; the contract was gone, especially when a familiar face had shown themselves. And he was very much different.
"Ignitus!" Spyro shouted with unbridled joy as he went to his mentor's floating image; Cynder ran albeit slower behind him, but still rushing over to the former Fore Guardian.
"Ah, Spyro, Cynder, it so good to see you again," he called with an echo from his spectral image, his voice brimming with compassion.
"Ignitus... When I thought you died, I..." Spyro started with tears in his eyes, unable to look to him.
The council stayed quiet at these developments, especially Naruto, and begrudgingly, Danzo, who believe he would get more information if he stayed quiet.
"It is okay, young dragon, what matters is that you stopped Malefor and you saved our world," he said kindly.
"I apologize for interrupting," called Sarutobi from his pedestal. "But I'm afraid I must ask who you are."
"I could ask you the same thing, friend," said Ignitus cheekily, but with no disrespect evident in his voice.
The Hokage chuckled. "Very well, I am Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, regent of the Village Hidden in the Leaves, in the Land of Fire. I am the strongest person in this village. I am known as the God of Shinobi for battlefield prowess, as well as the Professor, for being a master of every technique this village has to offer,"
Ignitus bowed before introducing himself. "I am Ignitus, former Fire Guardian of the Dragons, for I was the strongest Fire Element user of my race and generation, as well as being the Chronicler for this new age, making me responsible for keeping and archiving the Books of Time. Because of my new title, I now hold sway over time itself," he said graciously.
"He also taught me everything I know," Spyro butted in.
"I see," Sarutobi said nodding, "Then surely you can tell us why your student and his mate-to-be are here?"
"I am afraid I do not know, perhaps Spyro himself can answer?" he said turning everyone's eyes back on to the purple dragon.
"Jiraiya's prophecy," he squeaked from nervousness.
"And that prophecy is classified as an X-Class secret," he said seriously with his arms crossed and his face as hard as stone. Not even sensei knows its exact details, and it's going to stay that way." Looking pointedly at the head of the council.
"Well then, I guess, we have no choice then," Hiruzen sighed. "Thank you, Ignitus, we wish you good tidings," he said bowing to the much larger dragon's image. "Spyro, Cynder, you're to stay with Spyro for the time being, since the contract disappeared. You will also be tested on your abilities by one of my best shinobi, Kakashi Hatake, at the Memorial Training Ground. Depending on your abilities, you will be given a rank of Genin, a rookie; Chunin; a journeyman; or a Jonin, a professional; if you choose to accept," stated Sarutobi.
"Are you going to put them under your rule, Sarutobi?" Ignitus growled.
"Somewhat. I apologize, Ignitus, but it is the only way I can protect them while they're here," Hiruzen utter while bowing again.
"Fine, but I warn you, as well as this village: If either Spyro or Cynder are harmed by anyone in this place, not even death will stop me from burning this place to ash," he said before disappearing, leaving something behind him.
"Crystals?" asked Naruto eying the glowing, multicolored formation in the center of the room with only the slightest of avarice.
"Those are Spirit Gems," Spyro said walking over to it alongside, Cynder. They split where Spyro stopped and Cynder left to go to the other side of the large Gem form, about ten feet away from the cluster each. The both charged forward at the same time and attacked the structure. Everyone there was sorry to see such beauty be destroyed, but they were obviously doing this with a purpose, so they stayed back; however, a certain Clan Head had his Byakugan active.
"Those gems look like they're made from something more pure than chakra," Hiashi thought. Jiraiya was looking at it from a sage's perspective, however.
"They're made from something almost kin to natural energy. I wonder if I'd be able to enter sage mode with one of those..." the Toad Sage thought.
They all watched intently at the two dragons, seemingly danging together while the beat the crystal. As they broke, the gems lit up and flew into their bodies and disappearing when they touched scale.
When the crystal was completely broken, they noticed some changes in the dragons, small, but noticeable. Their scales seemed to be brighter, their horns and talons looked like polished silver and gleaming gold, respectively. Their eyes shone with hidden power, made stronger through what the gems they absorbed.
"What were those exactly, you two?" Shikaku asked, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.
"They are Spirit Gems, a gift from the Ancestors themselves. The pass along their energy, their knowledge, their spirit, in the form of these. They are our life source," Spyro, repeating the words once spoke to him long ago.
"They also appear where Dragons are to replenish them," Cynder added.
"So should we expect for these gems to appear all over the place?" Inoichi asked.
"Possibly," Spyro told truthfully.
"Hmm... where will they appear?" Hiruzen asked. "I do not need crystals showing up all over the village.
"Where we fight or stay for a prolonged period of time," Cynder said, knowing more about the gems than Spyro. "They'll also sometimes appear as monotonic depending on the kind of gem."
"There are different kinds?" Danzo asked.
"Yes, red gems heal, green gems restore energy for our elements, blue gems are the spirit powers that make us even stronger sometimes, and purple are the most dangerous," Cynder said.
"Why would that be?" asked Tsume, curious about these beautiful, magic, mineral.
"They're condensed Fury energy, which will become very powerful if anyone but a Dragon tries to use them," Cynder said, remember what happen to the Apes she worked with while she was Malefor's slave, especially Gaul.
"Damn. So only try it with the red gems then to be safe," Jiraiya thought, thinking that if he tried absorbing the natural energy from a Fury Gem, he'll just end up killing himself.
"Very well, we'll tell you if we see any of them then," Hiruzen said. "Now go home, everyone. Meeting adjourned."
So now, our heroes are returning to a home after a long day, what will await for them tomorrow...?
