Season 2.5 Opening( I Will Not Bow by Breaking Benjamin)(I do not own the song)
Returning to the massage shop, Dragnarok turns back into Drake before walking into building, only to find Fu, Ashley, and Aku Aku, who were waiting for him by the door.
"Found the guy who sent me the message. He was one of Eldritch's generals." Drake said.
"So that means there's only one left..." Fu muttered before noticing the katana strapped to Drake's side. "Where did you get that?"
"From the general I just faced, he's... different from the others." Drake said in a sad tone.
He then explained his encounter with Kraken Hydrown.
Meanwhile, Eldritch was in front of his crystal, looking at the five crystal towers that stood across France.
"The finale stage of my plan is just about ready." Eldritch said with a grin. "Soon, everyone will feel the pain I have endured for 5000 years!" Gripping onto his staff, Eldritch gazes into it to see his captives. "Knock-knock."
"Eldritch... What do you want?" Ladybug growled as she and the other Miraculous wielders glared at him.
"Just wanted to let you that my masterplan is about to come to fruition." Eldritch said with a smirk. "And there is nothing you or Dragnarok can do to stop it."
"Despite the fact he's kicking the asses of your generals?" Swallow asked in a mocking tone, getting a growl from their warden.
"Maybe... But I have one general remaining, and he's the strongest one of all!" Eldritch said with a sneer. "He'll rip Dragnarok apart!"
"Are you sure about that? I'm sure you know by now that Dragnarok will find a way to come out on top." Damselfly said.
"We will see, we will see." Eldritch said with a growl.
Back at Fu's massage shop, Drake finished telling Fu, Ashley, and Aku Aku his encounter with Kraken Hydrown.
"Interesting... Kraken Hydrown was indeed different from the rest." Ashley said.
"So he could've been a ally." Drake said.
"I wouldn't go that far, just because he was friendly to you doesn't mean he'll be friendly with us." Aku Aku said.
"I suppose..." Drake said in a unsure tone.
"Anyway, while you were out, we've made a discovery." Fu said before showing Drake to Pentagram. "You see, if you connect the towers together, you get a Pentagram."
Before Drake could say anything, his pendant flashes, summoning Ignitus' hologram projection.
"It seems your discovery is similar to mine, as I have discovered there has been streams of energy flowing through out France, and it's been getting stronger by the hour." The Chronicler said. "The reason, however, is still unknown."
Before anyone could say anything, there was a loud knock on the shop's door.
Quietly walking to the door, Drake opens it ajar and peeks out, only to see nothing.
Opening the door and looking around confused for a moment, Drake noticed a tape recorder and a tape that had 'Dragnarok-Play Me' written on it in what Drake hoped was red paint.
Picking the objects up, Drake ran back in the shop.
"Hey, these were left at the door step." He said, handing the tape and tape recorder to his grandmother.
"And no one was there?" Ashley asked, getting a nod from Drake. "Guess we'll just have to play this.
Putting the tape into the recorder, Ashley pushed the play button.
"Dragnarok... This is the remaining general of Lord Eldritch." A gravely voice said through the recorder. "Meet me at the entrance to the Catacombs of Paris. And don't keep me waiting."
And with that, the tape ends.
"Looks like I have more work to do." Drake said before turning towards Spyro and Cynder. "Are you guys ready?"
"I think you better be careful with this one." Spyro said in a cautious tone. "As I think this guy won't be easy at all."
"I have to agree." Cynder said with a nod.
"I figured as much. But if I don't meet him, who knows what he will do." Drake said before taking a stance. "Transform Me!" Once Spyro and Cynder were absorbed into his wristbands, Drake let's out a roar as he turns into Dragnarok. "Unleash the Dragon!" He then grabs his pendant. "Armor Up!" Summoning his Dark Armor.
And with that, the draconic hero opens a window and flies off.
Arriving to the entrance of the Catacombs, Dragnarok spotted a figure waiting for him.
It was a male humanoid figure that was, at first glance, it was safe to say was HUGE, as he was three times Dragnarok's size. The figure was covered in pitch black fur. In the center of his crest was a purple gem in the shape of a upside down triangle, with streaks of purple fur coming out the sides. The figure has sharp claws. He also had three toe clawed feet. Wrapped around his wrists were silver cuffs, with the one on the left wrist having a small chain. The most eye-catching feature of the figure is that he had three head. The upper half of the heads looked like dog heads with black fur and purple eyes, as well as having purple feelers for some reason. The lower half of the heads were human shaped and had grey skin and mouths full of razor sharp teeth. Connecting the two halves was the dog's half upper jawline, with large, white fangs running across them, with the canines being longer than the others.
"So, you finally arrived." The figure's middle head said.
"I take it your the one who sent me that message?" Dragnarok asked, having to look up to meet the figure's gaze.
"Indeed. I am Cerberus Genocider, the last remaining general of Lord Eldritch." The figure's middle head said.
"As well as the strongest." The right head said.
"And the oldest." The left head added.
"Okay, before we fight, I need to ask this. Does your middle head do most of the talking?" Dragnarok asked.
"In fact, it does." Cerberus Genocider said. "You know, I originally only had one head."
"Was this before The Order of the Guardians... You know?" Dragnarok asked, remembering what Freezebite Wendigo said.
"Murdered us?" Cerberus Genocider asked with a growl. "Those damn Guardians... They condemned us just for existing!"
"Look, I know it was unfair..." Dragnarok said, only to get a snarl from the Homunculus.
"Unfair?! You know what's unfair? The way they killed us!" Cerberus Genocider shouted. "They threw Freezebite Wendigo into the Nile to be eaten by the crocodiles. He managed to escape, but died of hypothermia due to being wet on a cold desert night. Fenrir Midnight was locked in a dark room to starve to death. Miasma Mandragora was put a sarcophagus and was buried alive. Fortunately, a guard who was smitten with her gave her a vial of poison to give her a quick and painless death. Stormer Gryphon was thrown off the top of the pyramid. Temproal Nagabind, out of fear and paranoia, killed himself. Phoenix Daybreaker was burned alive. Kraken Hydrown was also thrown into the Nile, but wasn't able to escape and drowned. And as for me? They cut me open and left me to bleed to death."
Dragnarok said nothing, as all he could do is stare in horror.
"Now then, one of us has to die here, and I'll be damned if it's me!" Cerberus Genocider said with a snarl. "Only one of us will leave this place alive!"
"Kill him!" The right head shouted.
"Tear off his flesh!" The left head shouted.
The Homunculus then smacks Dragnarok to the side, sending the draconic hero flying.
Quickly recovering, Dragnarok used Dragon Time to dodge a barrage of blood shards before retaliating with a sphere of Aether.
However, when Cerberus Genocider was hit square in the chest, he just shrugged the attack off!
"Is that the best you can do?" The Homunculus asked before making a mad dash at Dragnarok.
The draconic hero cartwheeled out of the way and fired a bolt of electricity, which only annoyed the Homunculus.
Cerberus Genocider then regurgitates blood from his three mouth, coating the floor. He then sinks into the blood.
"What the-?!" Dragnarok shouted as he looks around.
"Oh where, oh where could I be?" Cerberus Genocider taunted, rising behind Dragnarok and smacking him aside before sinking back into the blood.
Getting back onto his feet, Dragnarok looks around, keep both an eye and a ear out. Hearing something behind him, Dragnarok fires an Earth Shot, hitting Cerberus Genocider at point blank.
However, all this did was push the Homunculus back a couple of feet.
"Impressive. Not only did you find me, but I actually felt your last attack." Cerberus Genocider said.
"But it barely hurt." The left head said.
"Just a scuff mark." The right head added.
That's when a tendril made of blood rises out of the floor and wraps itself around Dragnarok.
Thinking fast, the draconic hero surrounds himself in a cold mist that was so cold, it instantly frozen the blood tendril, which he shattered, freeing himself. Dragnarok then uses his own blood powers to have all the blood on the floor to rise up and form a huge sphere before launching it at Cerberus Genocider, who simply dispels it.
"You could do better than that!" The Homunculus shouted before causing blood shards to rain down from ceiling.
Dragnarok encases himself in a Earth Boulder to shield him before rolling at his adversary. Bracing himself, Cerberus Genocider catches the attack and throws it aside, make it shatter and forces Dragnarok out.
"I grow tired of this." The Homunculus said before stretching his arms out, causing Dragnarok to freeze in place.
The draconic hero grinds his teeth in pain, as he could feel his still blood.
"I must admit, you did better than expected." Cerberus Genocider said before walking up to the Dragnarok and grabbing his head, intending to crush the draconic hero's skull.
Dragnarok screamed out in pain as the Homunculus tightens his around his head. Summoning the strength within, the draconic hero performs the Electricity Fury, freeing himself from Cerberus Genocider's grip and sending the Homunculus flying.
With sparks flying off his body, Dragnarok walks up to the Homunculus, who was slowly getting back onto his feet.
"This is the first time someone manages to take a Fury attack and still be standing." The draconic hero said.
"It'll take... More than that..." Cerberus Genocider said in a tired tone.
Seeing that the Homunculus was on his last leg, Dragnarok fires a beam of Aether.
Bracing himself, Cerberus Genocider takes to hit and manages to stay on his feet. But eventually, the beams overcomes him and sends the Homunculus flying once again.
Stopping the attack, Dragnarok looks at Cerberus Genocider, who was leaning against a wall, defeated, and having cracks form on his body.
"Lord Eldritch... I have failed you..." Cerberus Genocider groaned before glaring at Dragnarok. "You did it... You managed to beat all eight of us."
"Indeed. So tell me your piece of Eldritch past before I go after your boss." Dragnarok said.
"Very well..." Cerberus Genocider said with a cough, as more cracks formed on his body. "After Malefor was sent back to his world, Lord Eldritch fled north to flee from the Order of the Guardians. He was eventually caught and imprisoned in a tomb that was buried deep underground. Years later, Paris was built over that tomb."
"And I assume this tomb is Eldritch's base of operations?" Dragnarok asked.
"Correct." Cerberus Genocider said before pointing into the Catacombs. "Head into the Catacombs, the path to the tomb is in there. You'll know it when you see it."
And with that, Cerberus Genocider shatters into small sharps of blood, leaving behind three dog skulls that were fused together.
After pocketing the fused skulls, heads into the Catacombs, not noticing that, scratched into the top of the entrance, was "Abandon hope all ye who enter here".
In his lair, Eldritch saw the battle, and he, was, MAD.
"All eight generals..." Eldritch growled, smoke and embers leaking out of his mouth. "That's it! No more stalling! The final step of my plan begins now! You want a fight, Dragnarok? Then come and get me..."
Eldritch then let's out a loud roar.
And that's that! All eight generals are defeat!
Tell me, which general was your favorite and why?
Anyway, I'll see you all next time, when Dragnarok descends into the belly of the beast.
