New chapter guys! Time to answer reviews!
Anony(guest): I know! But think about it, a human city is a lot different than from Warfang or Dragon City! There are cars, humans, buildings seemingly made out of glass! So he wouldn't be used to it!
Dual Iron(guest): I guess I didn't explain it well or you didn't remember. Spyro used some of his magic to shrink himself (I know he can't actually do that but I just put in that one ability and I don't think I'll give him any extra) and Sunburn that way they could move through the city unnoticed. And no, I promise you didn't annoy me and I perfectly understand! Thank you for the review though!
Starry's Light: Again, thank you for your review! I always look forward to yours!
Chapter 4: A New Beginning
"What do you have planned, Master?" Glumshanks asked nervously.
"You'll see in just a bit, Glumshanks," Kaos muttered darkly. "she's coming in now."
"'She?'"
A small laugh echoed throughout the room and something emerged from the shadows.
A girl with sleek, black hair tied into a high ponytail and blood red eyes glanced around the stone room they were in. Her sarcastic smile stayed on her face even when her menacing eyes met with Kaos'.
"What do you need me to do, Master?" The girl questioned, kneeling down.
"How rude." Kaos growled. "Introduce yourself first."
The girl immediately stood up and stared at Glumshanks, unnerving the tall troll.
"My name is Celina," The newly named girl stated. "I am the Apprentice's counterpart. Kaos created me like he did his Minions."
"She will be the one to kill that Apprentice since I haven't figured out how to send myself through a Portal."
Glumshanks helplessly looked from Kaos to Celina trying to make sense of the situation. This was all happening too fast for him to comprehend.
"Prepare yourself, Celina," Kaos grinned. "Tomorrow you'll meet that...Apprentice. Also, make sure you're not seen. I don't want the people on that planet to know our existence yet."
"As you wish, Master."
Lusela watched the golden brown haired girl trudge away from her home, her sharp green eyes following the girl until she turned a corner and disappeared from view.
"Hmph, finally." The redhead muttered, reaching towards her phone and dialing a number. "Hey, want to hang out today?" She asked her friend once he picked up. "I really need to get something for my dad when he gets back from his business trip." She hung up once given an answer and left her room to get ready for the day.
Lusela strolled through the city with her best friend, Matthew. The tall sixteen year old held a dark brown wallet in his tanned hand and looked like he was searching for something.
"What the hell are you looking for, Matt?" Lusela asked, using her friend's nickname.
"Found it!" Matthew's golden eyes gleamed as he pulled a card out of his wallet and flipped it around to show Lusela. "Check it out!"
The redhead's green eyes widened and she snatched the card out of Matthew's hand. "You got your driver's license?!" She exclaimed. "When did that happen?!"
"Yesterday," Matthew announced proudly, taking the card back and putting it back into his wallet. "I had a little trouble with parallel parking but I made it!"
Matthew ran his hand through his sandy brown hair as he put his wallet back into his pocket. "Anything interesting happen yesterday?" The brunette asked.
Lusela snorted. "My mom brought home this homeless girl so that she could spend the night." She muttered. "And she was so weird. She looked around at our home like it was completely foreign to her."
"Well if she's homeless then it probably is." Matthew put in. "I mean, your family has a pretty big house."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever."
They continued on in silence for a few minutes until they both heard a small explosion a little ways away. Eyes widening, they rushed towards the commotion. Quickly turning a corner, Lusela came to a screeching halt once she saw the girl from last night covered in cuts and bruises limply lying on the ground.
And a raven haired girl advancing toward her.
"I have to admit," The menacing girl suddenly said. "I'm a bit disappointed. I expected more from an Apprentice of Eon." She sneered, blood red eyes narrowing. "No matter. Soon you won't exist anymore, Jenni."
She picked up Jenni like she was a ragdoll and closed a hand around her throat, choked her.
Matthew stared at the red-eyed female in rage before sprinting toward her and nailing her in the face with punch.
She immediately let go of Jenni and stumbled back. Glaring at the brunette, she quickly backed away before disappearing muttering a quiet "Soon…"
Not missing a beat, Lusela rushed over to the unconscious form of Jenni.
"Thank god no one comes to this area of the city!" Lusela thought to herself, kneeling down next to Jenni. "Otherwise this street would be crammed with people."
"We have to get her out of here!" Matthew exclaimed, his golden eyes gleaming worriedly.
"My place is closer!" Lusela quickly replied, pulling Jenni up.
"I got her."
Quickly picking Jenni up, Matthew glanced around before sprinting off with Lusela scrambling to keep up behind him.
"What happened?"
The question greeted Celina as she cautiously crept into the room, a bruise already forming on her cheek. She didn't make eye contact with her Master, not wanting to see the small wound.
"You didn't kill her, did you?" Kaos growled, hands clenching into fists.
"...You told me not to let my presence known." Celina responded. "I was interrupted before I could finish her by two kids."
Kaos narrowed his large eyes in rage, a small ball of dark energy slowly formed in his right hand. "Did you say kids interrupted you?"
The counterpart simply nodded her head.
"Look up!" The small man barked harshly.
Celina hesitated before raising her head, showing the bruise Matthew had given her.
"So...a child did that to you?" Kaos murmured, raising his right hand. "A child interrupted you so you decided to leave." He glowered at the cowering girl. "Let me tell you, that bruise is nothing compared to this."
The black haired girl cried out as the dark energy hit her square in the face. It felt like it was burning her skin off, the heat reaching deep into her flesh.
"I don't care anymore about not letting our presence known. That was a mistake that got in the of destroying her." Kaos turned away from Celina. "From now on, do whatever it takes. I won't allow her to come back to Skylands and rebuild the Core of Light."
