A week passed, and for Sparx it was the slowest period of time in his life. He spent most his days resting in the lookout, after he promoted the mole to 'second in charge', and a small stash of food in the room for himself, to others it was not even a snack, but to a dragonfly it was enough to get by for at least four days. After the first week of looking for Spyro he found himself getting more and more worked up about Spyro needing serious help. He broke himself from watch duty to go find Hunter to ask if he would be willing to track down his brother. After a while of searching for the cheetah he ran into Volteer.
"Hello there, Sparx! How are you?" The guardian asked in a cheery voice.
"It would be a lot better if I knew Where Spyro was."
"What? Still no sign of the young dragon?" Sparx simply shook his head. Volteer noticed how down the dragonfly looked. he thought to himself for a moment thill he realized something they all may have overlooked.
"Sparx maybe you're looking for your brother at the wrong place?" Volteer suggested.
"What? The wrong place, where else would he go?" Sparx asked skeptically.
"Well...is Warfang the only place Spyro could go?" Volteer tried to point out without giving him too much info.
"Of course Warfang is the only...wait a second." Sparx thought long and hard for a moment. "Are you suggesting that maybe instead of coming here, that he went home?"
Volteer just nodded. "You know what, you may be right." Sparx pondered to himself for a moment again trying to reason why he hadn't realized this himself, when a thought struck him.
"Wait, are you just trying to get rid of me because I'm doing a bad job as a leader in the lookout or something?"
"What, no never, your doing a great job as a leader. I'm just throwing out ideas to help you in your search for Spyro, since it seems to be a very importatn task for you." Volteer was a little stunned that the insect would say such a thing.
"Well then what makes you think he'll be there?"
"I'm not. It's just a possibility." He then leaned in towards Sparx. "But you won't know until you go see for yourself now won't you?" Sparx thought on Volteer's words again then nodded enthusiastically, agreeing with Volteer. "Yeah...yeah you're right. I'm going home to see if he's there. Can you tell my second in charge has the floor now? Thanks Volt!" Sparx questioned, then without anymore hesitation Sparx zipped out of the room before Volteer could reply with a 'sure' or a 'you're welcome.'

Spurred on with the desire to finally see Spyro, Cynder and maybe Ignitus again, Sparx flew with a renewed energy, back to his village, after a day and a half of nonstop flying he reached the outer edge of his village. When he regined his wind of flying just to get where he was, he looked around, trying to find some kind of sign that said Spyro or the other tow had been there, after finding nothing he felt a little scared. But wasn't ready to give up hope yet, he flew on into the actual village.
"Mom? Dad? I'm back is anyone home?" Sparx tested after reaching his home, there was no answer, and Sparx thought that no one was home, he was about to leave when the door opened.
"Sparx? It's good to see you honey." Nina called to him giving him a greeting kiss.
"Nice to see you too mom." Sparx said giving her a hug. "Has Spyro come back yet?"
"No, we thought you were waiting for him back at the dragon city."
"Well I was, But one of the guardians suggested that he might have come back home so I came to check."
"So no one has seen him yet?" Flash asked coming to the door. Sparx shook his head in responce. "Well, all we can do is hope for his safe return now."
Sparx let out an exhausted sigh, as the nonstop flying he had done caught up to him.
"Sparx did you fly from Warfang back here without stopping?" Nina asked concerned.
"Yeah I did. Can I go up to my room and rest now?"
"Yes, yes come on in...we cleaned up your room after you left so it would be clean when you got back so enjoy yourself." Nina said ushering him off to bed.
"Alright, goodnight mom." Sparx closed the door to his room and flopped onto his bed.
He looked out the hole in his wall which served as his window, and remembered all the times Spyro had slept outside his room when they were still playing hide-and-seek games when they were younger. The dragonfly sighed at the memory, and let his eyelids close and drape the darkness of sleep on him.

"And then what happened?" An excited dragonfly asked Sparx as he retold one of his stories from when he was with Spyro.
"After Spyro and I laid a beating to the god of the shrine, the atllawa wanted to worship uss then!" Sparx recounted his experience from tall plains.
"Really?" Another dragonfly asked.
"Yep...I was the 'almighty' Sparx, 'scourge of the despots'." Sparx began ranting remembering the felling of being a god to others.
"Please!" Someone from the back of the crowd spoke up. "Tell us another one of your adventures with Spyro!" It had been like this for several days now; on one could get enough of Sparx's life after he left the village. And for Sparx he didn't mind at all, he was the center of attention in the village and for him this was the best place to be, but during any of the story telling it always had a purple dragon next to him, now it was just him.
"Alright," Sparx put on a thoughtful face to keep his audience in suspense, and if that was his goal it was working, everyone started to lean in waiting for the next story. "Did I tell you the time when we were kidnapped by some sort of dog pirates?" Sparx, of course already told this story, but everyone just shouted they wanted to hear it again. "Well we were wandering through a really dark-" Sparx told everyone what occurred after his departure, up to the point when he left Spyro and Cynder's side at the belt of fire. Now as much as Sparx wanted to keep himself in the spotlight, he still wanted to go search for the said missing dragons, this is where we find Sparx now, muttering to himself as he was considering what to do next.
"Maybe I should go back to Warfang and see if he really did go there. Perhaps one of the guardians can help out now if he isn't there." Sparx was so caught up in what he was going to do next that he failed to notice two dragons coming out of the mushroom forest.
"Or maybe Hunter and his village could help me...yeah if there were any damages to their home they would be done fixing them by now." The two dragons stopped as Sparx floated by still not seeing them. "Hey Sparx!"
"Oh, hey Spyro." Sparx spoke nonchalantly, not realizing who spoke to him, or what he just said.
"Duh! Why didn't I think of this earlier, I can ask one of the guardians if they can...wait a second?" Sparx suddenly stopped, and turned around to see Spyro and Cynder looking at him with raised eye ridges, eyeing him as if he was insane.
"...I must be seeing things." sparx shook his head and rubbed his eyes, when he opened them, the two 'illusions' were still there.
"...Maybe I'm asleep." He pinched himself and when he did the two dragons were still there. "Am I going insane or something?" He asked not expecting the dragons to talk back.
"No Sparx, you're not going insane." Spyro laughed, both his responce and laugh made Sparx a little jumpy, and to make it worse or possibly better the other one talked too.
"I don't know for sure Spyro I'd say he's making quick progress." Cynder said with a smile, amused at Sparx's shenanigans.
"Spyro! Cynder! You're finally back." Sparx shouted and flung into Spyro's face hugging him with all he had. "I thought I'd never see you guys again! Do you know what I've been doing since you left, how I've worried about whether I was going to see you again?" Sparx ranted after letting go of Spyro's face.
"Well I did make a promise to look after Spyro didn't I Sparx?" Cynder pointed out to Sparx trying to remind him of their promise before they split.
"Yeah we did, thank you for looking after Spyro for me." Sparx flew over and hugged her face as well, showing hes appreciation.
"Hey lets go, we still have to go see Mom and Dad." Spyro said turning their attention back to the village; on the way back Sparx had noticed that there should be three dragons with them not just two.
"Hey, did Ignitus go back to the dragon city?" Sparx inquired. Both Cynder and Spryo shared a glance at each other and silently decided that now wasn't the best time for that topic.
"Uh, ask us that another time Sparx would you?" CYnder replied hoping Sparx would drop it, Sparx saw something was up, but didn't push the subject any further. After a shourt travel from the forest they made it to the dragonflies village, when they saw Spyro and Cynder walking in, they stopped what they were doing and gave way to applauding.
Cynder stopped but Spyro continued ahead, the dragonflies all swarmed around him hugging him and welcoming him back home. Above all the commotion Spyro heared two familiar voices.
"My goodness, Spyro?" "You sure have grown my boy!" Spyro looked around and saw his foster parents hovering before him.
"Mom, Dad it's great to see you again. I've missed you both." Spyro said happy they were both still alive and well.
"Spyro?" Who's your friend over there?" Nina asked looking around him. The purple draon looked back over his shoulder to see Cynder still standing in the shadow of a few mushrooms, looking nervous.
"It's okay; you don't have to be nervous." Spyro said coaxing her over to the crowd. As Cynder came into the light, Spyro smiled encouragingly to her and she smiled warmly in return.
"Mom, Dad. I would like you to meet Cynder." Spyro introduced.
"Why Spyro..." Nina breathed and placed a hand over her heart. "She's beautiful."
Spyro smiled and tried his best not to show he was slighlty embarrased.
"Thank you very much." Cynder responded to the compliment. "It's an honor to meet you both." She gave a slight bow out of respect for Spyro's foster family.
"Oh no please dear, anyone who Spyro likes is always welcome here." Cynder felt her cheek's warming up as she glanced at Spyro, who was trying his best to avoid eye contact with her. Spyro was about to speak again when Flash spoke first. "Well since you're back home we'll have to throw a 'welcome back' party and a 'welcoming' party for you two!" Flash said already having everyone get it prepared for the village of dragonflies, and the two dragons.
