Walter was fazed but managed to shake it off.
"That was a truly impressive battle, you seven!" Walter said.
"Now, we just have to go back to the Mystical City." Spyro said.
"No, you don't." Walter said.
"Why not?" Spyro asked.
"Because you only weakened me and yes, you defeated me during our battle, but you have to fight me again." Walter said.
"Unfortunately, Walter can grow even stronger if we don't defeat him so every time we heard that Walter was around, we went to him and that occurred during our job." Ronald and Cynder said.
"That's correct, Ronald and Cynder. You seven will have to fight me again." Walter said.
"Then let's do it!" Spyro said.
"We will but not right now." Walter said.
"Why not?" Spyro asked.
"Because I want you to meet me at the Rocky Cave Depth and we can battle there and the Rocky Cave is in front of you, well, not exactly in front of you but it is up ahead but you have get pass a Domino Barrier first." Walter said.
"Then we'll go there!" Spyro said.
"I agree with you, Spyro!" Whirlwind said.
"And we do too!" Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap said.
"Then we'll meet there but I need to heal you up first before you can do such a thing." Walter said.
Then Walter used his healing power and restored Spyro's health, Whirlwind's health, Ronald's health, Cynder's health, Sunburn's health, Camo's health, and Zap's health and also restored Spyro's mana, Whirlwind's mana, Ronald's mana, Cynder's mana, Sunburn's mana, Camo's mana, and Zap's mana.
"Now, I'll be off." Walter said.
Then Walter flew off into the sky.
Then Spyro heard his heart, his soul, and his mind say something.
"What is it, Spyro?" Whirlwind asked quietly.
"There's something off." Spyro said quietly.
"What's off?" Whirlwind asked quietly.
"The whole thing that Ronald and Cynder can't learn the ground element because they're not the same shape as me is off! I think they can actually learn it." Spyro said quietly.
"Hmm, I think that they could learn the ground element too but I think they couldn't learn it because they had a limit of seven elements." Whirlwind said quietly.
"I think you two are making random guesses at this point." Sparx said.
"Then let's see who's right." Spyro and Whirlwind said.
Then Dominoes sprung up from the ground and created a barrier.
"If you want to get to the Rocky Cave, then listen to what we have to say." Goliath's voice and Morgan's voice said.
"That's my father and my mother. Okay, we'll listen." Spyro said.
"Good. Now, the Dominoes can only be destroyed by the ground element but only with the power of love. So, you need two creatures who can learn the ground element who are also boyfriend and girlfriend to destroy the Dominoes." Goliath's voice and Morgan's voice said.
"But how are we supposed to do that?! I mean, I only have the ground element but Ronald and Cynder are boyfriend and girlfriend but they don't have that element!" Spyro said.
"We heard your chat with Whirlwind, our handsome son, and we can see why Flag chose you to be his successor and you have proved your worth and we are proud of you for making your own choices and doing what you thought was right and and for helping Ronald and Cynder get together as boyfriend and girlfriend and Flag will be too. Now, just ask Ronald and Cynder to do it and who knows what will happen next? Maybe you and Whirlwind could be right. Farewell." Goliath's voice and Morgan's voice said.
"If Father and Mother want me to do it then I'll do it." Spyro said to himself.
"Ronald and Cynder, can you destroy the Dominoes?" Spyro asked.
"We can try but we don't have the ground element so it will be a failure but we will try." Ronald and Cynder said.
Then Ronald used a Ground Blast and Cynder used a Ground Blast and destroyed the Dominoes.
"We knew it!" Spyro and Whirlwind said.
"But how?" Ronald and Cynder asked.
Then an illusion of the Chronicler.
"Let me explain, Ronald and Cynder: I have been half lying about it. You two can learn the ground element and you two have just learned it but there are three ways to do it; one, you have to be born with the ability to learn it as as eggs, two, the Ground Guardian has to be with your eggs in the Dragon Temple for a long time if you weren't born with the ability to learn it as eggs, and three, through your exposure to darkness if you weren't born with the ability to learn it as eggs. In other words, Ronald and Cynder, you two had the ability to use the ground element after you two got exposed to darkness and you had it all this time but it wasn't awakened yet because you needed to believe the story of Flag from Walter and revealed the fact that Dulce helped you by telling the others your feelings for each other and about Dulce's good involvement about the bullying situation!" The Chronicler said.
"What about the wind element?" Ronald and Cynder said.
"It's the same thing for it as it is for the ground element and you two can learn the wind element and you two have already learned it but there are three ways to do it; one, you have to be born with the ability to learn it as eggs, two, the Wind Guardian has to be with your eggs for a long time if you weren't born with the ability to learn it as eggs, and three, through your exposure to darkness if you weren't born with the ability to learn it as eggs." The Chronicler said.
"So, why couldn't they learn them before?" Spyro asked.
"It's because they only have a limit of seven elements unlike Purple Dragons who can only learn natural elements. So, if they couldn't use the earth and the metal elements, then they will be able to use the ground and wind elements. But they can go above the limit but only two more so they could have learned the ground and wind elements earlier or would have learned them earlier despite their limit due to the fact that Dozer and Skyla are still alive since the other nine Guardians, who are dead, because they were killed by Malefor." The Chronicler said.
"Then why couldn't Ronald and Cynder learn the ground element and the wind element before they got corrupted if Dozer and Skyla were near the eggs for a long time before they were even born or hatch from their eggs?" Spyro asked.
"Because of Angelslash and Demonswipe. You see, they possessed them because they were asked to by Malefor. Malefor didn't want Ronald and Cynder to be so powerful then because if they did, then they wouldn't be corrupted in the first place and instead of listening to the corrupted Whirlwind on Baram Hill, Cynder would go after Ronald and would prevent him from the corruption. Angelslash and Demonswipe didn't want them to grow too powerful either. Angelslash's magic and Demonswipe's magic interferes with the Guardians' magic and they were almost so close to the day, but before that day, Haul came and attacked Dozer and Skyla, making scratches close to their hearts, enabling Angelslash and Demonswipe to possess them and they did." The Chronicler said.
"That Malefor is awful! I mean, why ask Angelslash and Demonswipe to possess two of the Guardians to prevent two of my friends from becoming powerful?! It would be better if he did it himself so Dozer and Skyla wouldn't leave the Dragon Temple." Spyro said.
"You're right, Spyro, that would have been better but that was the point of the first invasion by Haul." The Chronicler said.
"Huh?" Spyro asked.
"Let me explain. As you recall from Siltia, the Guardians would have succeeded if there were nine Guardians in the Dragon Temple and like you learned from Kemp and Lily, the Guardians actually succeeded in defending the eggs from the Dull Army because there were twenty Guardians in the Dragon Temple and twenty is more than nine. Though Malefor already killed nine Guardians and found out the raid from the past and how it failed, and he wanted to make sure that raids on the Dragon Temple will succeed but he needed to weaken the Dragon Temple's forces by forcing some of the other Guardians, who were still alive, to leave the Dragon Temple when two of them already left and that's when superbosses did everything to make sure that the raids will go smoothly and succeed by ordering Gaul to order Haul to invade the Dragon Temple and do those things." The Chronicler said.
"So, the superbosses were really the ones who caused everything!" Spyro said.
"Yes, Spyro, but I don't know about your parents' disappearance or the death of Whirlwind's parents." The Chronicler said.
"So, everything, except my parents' disappearance and the death of Whirlwind's parents. But how many raids were supposed to happen in the Dragon Temple?" Spyro asked.
"Three." The Chronicler asked.
"Three?! But there were only two raids in the Dragon Temple!" Spyro said.
"Yes, there were only two, but what Malefor wanted was for the corrupted Ronald to steal Cynder's egg four days later and the corrupted Whirlwind wanted that too but there was drawback with that plan as Cynder's egg was going to hatch on the same day that Ronald's egg was going to hatch so they made another plan for it and that was to let Ronald become friends with Cynder so they could become best friends but needed them to be really close to each other so Ronald will be able to corrupt Cynder after he got corrupted." The Chronicler explained.
"So, Malefor was the real reason why Ronald and Cynder were in a Forbidden Love?" Spyro asked.
"Yes, it was, and Malefor knew that Ronald can't be corrupted if he and Cynder became boyfriend and girlfriend so he asked his servant, the corrupted Whirlwind, to come up with a plan to keep Ronald and Cynder from becoming boyfriend and girlfriend during time when they were 10, 11, and 12 years old after they met and before May 19, 1998, which was the Night Of The Elimination, and she did." The Chronicler said.
"How could Malefor do such a thing to us?!" Ronald and Cynder asked.
"I think that it was a right, wrong, and stupid thing to do." Sparx said.
"How?" Spyro asked.
"The right thing is that he enabled Ronald and Cynder to go past their limit and learn more elements. The wrong thing is that he messed with Ronald's and Cynder's love to benefit his own plan but it had a good outcome for us. The stupid thing that he did was giving Ronald and Cynder more elements than they already have! I mean, if you don't want Ronald and Cynder to become more powerful then don't give them more elements!" Sparx said.
"Sparx, makes a pretty good point, Spyro." Zap said.
"I see. I guess Malefor didn't think it through." Spyro said.
"Yes, you can say that, but those elements were supposed to be beneficial to him but what Malefor didn't count on was you, Spyro." The Chronicler said.
"Me?" Spyro asked.
"Yes, you, Spyro. The moment you saved Cynder, Ronald, and Whirlwind, Malefor saw you as a threat to his plan but didn't pay any attention when you defeated Sunburn, Camo, and Zap and you also helped Ronald and Cynder become boyfriend and girlfriend by convincing Ronald to tell Cynder his feelings for her because you thought you were doing the right thing and also because you wanted to repay Ronald for teaching you everything about the enemies of the Mystical Realm and teaching you how to be nice and feel pity for the enemies who are not evil, despite Ronald telling you that you didn't need to repay him." The Chronicler said.
"So, because of what I did, Malefor expanded his effort?" Spyro asked.
"Yes, you did, and I must say, Spyro, you might have changed Whirlwind's destiny. But only time will tell if you did. Farewell, everyone." The Chronicler said.
Then the illusion of the Chronicler disappeared.
"So, all this time, we had the ability to use the ground element but it wasn't awakened yet and we got it through our exposure to darkness!" Ronald and Cynder said.
"You two are basically powerhouses now." Zap said.
"For the next boss battle, we'll try using our ground element!" Ronald and Cynder said.
Then Ronald's communicator rang and Ronald answered it.
"Yes?" Ronald said.
"It's Velly, Ronald! And is Cynder still there?" Velly asked.
"Yes, I am." Cynder said.
"Good. Now, the boss wants to call you two again. I'll put him on." Velly said.
"But how? The Rocky Cliff prevents calls from working, so how?" Ronald and Cynder asked.
"Well, it's because I simply upgraded the towers to work and I also fixed the Rocky Cliff Towers too." Velly said.
"We see." Ronald said.
"Now, I'll hang up so the Boss can be put on." Velly said.
Then Velly hung up and Funserious got put on.
"Hello, Ronald and Cynder." Funserious said.
"Hello, Boss Funserious. What's up?" Ronald and Cynder asked.
"I need you two back at the TSO HQ again! It's an urgent matter!" Funserious said.
"Ugh. Not Bubble and Ember again." Sparx said.
"Quiet Sparx!" Ronald and Cynder said.
"Don't get Ronald and Cynder wrong, Sparx. Ronald and Cynder only did that because they're talking to their boss and if their boss finds out you say stuff like that, then they will have your memories about Ronald's and Cynder's secret identities because helping people in need is the Saviors' job." Zap explained.
"I see." Sparx said.
"Sorry, so is it Bubble and Ember again?" Ronald and Cynder asked.
"No, it's not. But I still need you two back at the TSO HQ." Funserious said.
"Understood. We'll be there." Ronald and Cynder said.
Then Ronald ended the call.
"Sorry, we have to leave, but we'll come right back." Ronald and Cynder said.
Then Ronald and Cynder flew off into the sky and flew and headed to Funwork City.
"That's Ronald and Cynder for you. They're hard workers and they even do it even when they're supposed to be on vacation." Zap said.
"It's no wonder why Funserious hired them. If only I could go to school too." Spyro said.
"Well, you can, but only Ronald can enroll you in school because he has taught you everything about the enemies, who are not evil but have gone mad due to the Dark Army, and your parents decided that if they were not able to survive then Ronald will enroll you in a school but Ronald will only be able to enroll you in Baram School, which is in the Mystical City now, and the reason for that is because that was the school that he was enrolled in by his parents, Thorn and Saphira. Some creatures graduated from school, but for others, no because they want to keep studying and Baram School doesn't force the students to graduate at a certain year and they let the students take tests at their own time and you can keep your job while you are still going to school! And you can do plays there as well!" Zap said.
"Baram School sounds fun! I wonder why Father and Mother said it wasn't a good school for me?" Spyro asked.
"That's because Mayor Strict only mentioned the parts of going to school on Sundays and Saturdays instead of just weekdays in which schools are only to be on the weekdays. But someone chastised the faculty and the mayor for having plays and playgrounds in school and that schools are supposed to force students to graduate at a certain year and forced students to take tests when the school tells them at a certain time and those were King Fair's father and King Fair's mother and they planned on taking over every other Realm so they can enact their rules on the Realms and force every couple, who are an interspecies couple, an intercolor couple, and an interelement couple to broke up and find mates of their respective kinds which meant that neither of your allies including me, except for Whirlwind, would have ever been born." Zap said.
"It seems like those rulers are bad rulers. They should keep their own rules to their own Realm!" Spyro said.
"Well, the Vantela Realm didn't have just one ruler, they had more rulers and those were Queen Cleve's father and Queen Cleve's mother but not anymore as Queen Cleve rules the Vantela Realm with her husband, King Fair. And there were other rulers as well who were King Lueur's father and King Lueur's mother and Queen Ombre's father and Queen Ombre's mother but they were killed by King Fair's parents and Queen Cleve's parents to stop interspecies relationships, intercolor relationships, and interelement relationships from happening in the Vantela Realm even though the land didn't belong to them." Zap said.
"That's awful!" Spyro said.
"Yes, it is, but they're dead now." Zap said.
"So, then why Mayor Strict only mentioned two parts of Baram School if those Jerks are already dead?" Spyro asked.
"That's because their clones and robots were still alive but Flag and his team managed to get rid of some of them but the rest of them were destroyed by Ronald and Cynder during their job. Ronald and Cynder called the clones, the Horrible Clones, and called the robots, the Horrible Robots, and because of that, everyone calls them by those names and they didn't even have names before!" Zap said.
"That's funny." Spyro said.
"Yeah, it is." Whirlwind said.
"Is there more?" Sparx asked.
"Yeah, there is, but I don't know anything else about the past but I heard that the Queens Of The Realm Dragons might!" Zap said.
"Then we should go to the Realm Dragons after we complete this mission." Spyro said.
Then Ronald and Cynder flew and headed back to the Rocky Cliff.
Then Ronald and Cynder flew all the way to the Rocky Cliff.
Then Ronald and Cynder flew down and landed on the ground.
Then Ronald and Cynder turned around.
"We're back and we also informed our boss that we found the Sacred Slab with you, Whirlwind, and the three members of the Investigators, who are Sunburn, Camo, and Zap." Ronald and Cynder said.
"So, what happened?" Spyro asked.
"Volt called us." Ronald and Cynder said.
"Why?" Spyro asked.
"Apparently, some Knights called the Slashers invaded the Dabbler Village and stole the materials and Flame went after them and he told Volt to go to Funserious and asked him to get us and we all managed to defeat them and get the materials back and brought them back to the village." Ronald and Cynder explained.
"I see." Spyro said.
"Anyway, there could be more of them so we should watch out." Ronald and Cynder said.
Then Flame and Volt flew to the Rocky Cliff and then flew down and landed on the ground.
"Hi, Spyro, it's great to see you again." Flame and Volt said.
"It's great to see you two, Flame and Volt." Spyro said.
"So, anyway, what's new?" Spyro asked.
"I have a boyfriend and he's right next to me!" Volt said.
"Is that true, Flame?" Spyro asked.
"Yes, it's true. I am Volt's boyfriend!" Flame said.
"So, you both had feelings for each other when I saw you both for the first time?" Spyro asked.
"Yes, we did." Flame and Volt said.
"Spyro, I came to apologize for what I did in calling Ronald and Cynder to help us deal with the Slashers while you were on a mission but there was no other option." Volt said.
"Why?" Spyro asked.
"In our own Realm called the Tinge Realm, we were taught that we must ask for help if something requires experts at this by our own parents. And Ronald and Cynder are experts at fighting Strikers." Flame said.
"A tiguin named Tiguiness, a pegasus named Pegasusess, a phoenix named Phoenix, a zorse named Zorse, a jaquin named Jaq, a leopuin named Leop, a snakepuin named Anaconda, a griffin named Griffin, and a Horse named Mare had trouble fighting the Slashers. They were jealous that two small creatures were the key to defeat them even though they were not supposed to go there." Flame and Volt said.
"I see." Spyro said.
"Anyway, Spyro, do you have a question to ask me before I go?" Volt asked.
"Yes, I do." Spyro said.
"What is it?" Volteer said.
"Do you know the mysterious dragon who saved me from Sunburn, Camo, and Zap during the First Arc?" Spyro asked.
"No, I don't, but it's a good thing that she told you that she was a dragon, otherwise, you will be asking me if I saved you from Sunburn, Camo, and Zap but I will answer no and it is no because if I did, then I will kill Sunburn, Camo, and Zap because I wouldn't know that they're good guys before the Fifth Arc began and don't get me wrong, I know that Whirlwind was the Dark Master's servant and I also know that it wasn't her fault because she was forced to and I already forgave Ronald and Cynder because they're my friends and it's a good thing that I lived in a different Realm instead otherwise I couldn't befriend Ronald if lived in the Mystical Realm." Volt said.
"Ronald, you never said anything about not being allowed to be friends with unicorns." Spyro said.
"That's because I forgot to mention it because Father and Mother told me that I couldn't become friends with unicorns three weeks later but that was only because of the corrupted Whirlwind telling them to do it." Ronald said.
"When something happens that seems out of place, Ronald forgets it until someone reminds him." Cynder said.
"Yes, that's true, and if Funserious asks me about my past, I will give you credit for reminding me about that, Volt." Ronald said.
"But wouldn't it make sense to tell you on the day you befriended Cynder?" Sparx asked.
"That's what out of place means, Sparx! It happened later than it was supposed to!" Cynder said.
"And back to what I was saying, I'm not a huge fan of outlaws." Volt said.
"Why not?" Spyro asked.
"Well, you see, Spyro, the truth is that it relates to Volt's past and she was a member of the group before I even met you and that happened when you were five years old and that group that Volt was a member were scarlet aliens called the Shroodians led by a red dragon named Badlurcher and they were outlaws too." Flame said.
"Spyro, I'm gonna tell you the truth, I was once a monster. Unlike Whirlwind, Ronald, and Cynder, I didn't change my shape and size, I was the same, but I didn't care about anyone, no matter how much people suffered under my rule and ordering the Shroodians to attack the villages because I was their General. But once Flame defeated me, he broke the corruption out of me." Volt said.
"How did you become the General of the Shroodians?" Spyro asked.
"I was looking for my parents but I couldn't find them and then I saw a Star Fairy who told me that my parents were in the Shroodians' spaceships so I went there but I fell into a trap and got the curse on me." Volt explained.
"The thing is that the Star Fairy wasn't really a Star Fairy at all! It was a Shroodian being disguised as a Star Fairy that tricked Volt into going to their spaceship so Badlurcger could corrupt her!" Flame said.
"I see. Thanks for the confirmation." Spyro said.
"You're welcome, Spyro." Volt said.
"Now, we'll be off. Bye, everyone." Flame and Volt said.
"Bye." Spyro, Whirlwind, Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap said.
Then Flame and Volt flew off into the sky and headed to the Tinge Realm.
"Huh, then I guess my savior is a real mystery. Anyway, we should go to the Rocky Cliff." Spyro said.
"You're right, Spyro." Whirlwind said.
"Uh huh." Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap said.
Then Spyro, Whirlwind, Ronald, Cynder, Sunburn, Camo, and Zap flew off into the sky and flew and headed to the Rocky Cave.
What's going to happen next?
Stay tuned to find out!
Note: This is where my OC, Volt, is introduced to the readers. Volt is a female yellow unicorn. Volt is also one of Spyro's friends before Spyro began his adventure.
Other Note: Flame and Volt are boyfriend and girlfriend.
Another Note: Flame and Volt are only in love with each other.
Another Note: Flame and Volt are Ronald's and Cynder's friends because Ronald and Cynder met them during their job, but when Ronald and Cynder first met them, Flame and Volt were already boyfriend and girlfriend.
Another Note: Volt doesn't know who the mysterious ally is but is grateful that she said that she was a dragon because if she didn't then Spyro would have asked Volt if she was the mysterious ally and that answer is no.
Another Note: In this universe, Volt has a dark past that she was a member of the evil aliens called the Shroodians led by a brown dragon named Badlurcher so she is able to sympathize with Whirlwind because of it and also forgave Ronald and Cynder because they're her friends. Flame also forgave Ronald and Cynder because they're his friends and also forgave Whirlwind because she was forced to do those things.
