Here we go again. Time to see what happens.

Chapter 14: Reconnected

Spyro bolted towards Jet and checked for a pulse. He gulped as he felt no heartbeat and yelled, "EVERYONE GET BACK!" Everyone backed up and Sparx asked, "Is she gonna be okay?" Spyro replied swiftly, "Yes. I'll see to it myself!"

Electricity crackled across Spyro's body as he planted his front paws on Jet's chest. Spyro growled, "Clear!" A powerful blast of electricity surged from them and Jet's body jolted. Spyro checked for a pulse once again and said, "Clear!" Another powerful blast of electricity shot from Spyro's paws. He checked for a pulse and felt none. Spyro entered his electricity fury, electricity crackling across his body. He let the energy charge up from deep within. He growled, "DON'T YOU GIVE UP ON US, JET! ONE MORE TIME! CLEAR!" An extremely powerful blast of electricity erupted from Spyro's paws and Jet's body jolted once again.

Spyro was charging up another blast when Jet gasped for breath. She shot up and looked around. Spyro sighed in relief and said, "You scared us Jet!" Spyro deactivated his Fury and Jet replied calmly, "Thank you Spyro, but this wouldn't have been an issue if you didn't try to wipe the entire battleground with an uncontrolled Fury Wipe!" Spyro's eyes lit up with curiosity as he asked, "Fury Wipe?"

Jet looked at Spyro and couldn't stay mad as she answered, "You don't know what a Fury Wipe is?" Spyro shook his head no and Jet said, "A Fury Wipe is a very powerful form of Fury Magic. It completely decimates the battleground of foes with whatever element you're using the Fury for. As you saw, an uncontrolled one strikes both friend and foe without remorse."

Cynder said, "I've read about Fury Wipes but I've always thought they were a myth! Only those perfectly attuned to an element can unleash a Fury Wipe with said element! The stories only talked about adult dragons unleashing a Fury Wipe. The fact that Spyro can unleash one and he's only an adolescent dragon says a lot about him."

Jet nodded her agreement and Hunter decided to point out the elephant in the room, "So. Jet. You can use Electricity. Wanna explain how? You're a midnight purple dragoness. Not a yellow dragoness." Jet looked at Hunter and opened her mouth to answer when Spyro said, "Not right now Hunter. She needs to rest and recover. She did basically die." Hunter replied, "As you wish Spyro."

Jet looked at Spyro and said, "I appreciate that Spyro. But I really should tell everyone here." Spyro looked at Jet and asked, "Are you sure you want to explain it to us right now?" Jet replied with a nervous giggle, "No time like the present as they say. I am indeed not a Yellow Dragoness. But for some reason, I have the ability to harness electricity. It doesn't make sense to me."

Cynder asked, "Are you able to harness other elements?" Jet replied hastily with an ever so slightly different tone of voice, "Not that I know of, no." Spyro noticed the slight change of voice, but kept it to himself. Spyro thought to himself, 'Intriguing to say the least. Very intriguing.'

Spyro said, "Alright. No more questions for Jet at this moment." Jet said her thanks and Spyro said, "So! Now Malefor's forces have new tricks up their sleeve. Stay vigilant when we fight more of them. No one is dying on this journey. Not on my watch!" The entirety of the group said in harmony, "SIR YES SIR!" Spyro shook his head and led his group to a safe place so everyone could recover.

After the group found a safe place to rest, Jet motioned to Hunter to come towards her. Hunter walked over and asked, "Yes?" Jet growled quietly, "Fuck you, Hunter; for bringing some shit like that up. I know you and Gloria think I'm a purple. I'm telling you right now, there's no way in hell I am one. There are already two in this age. There is no way that there's a third in this age."

Hunter whispered to Jet, "You can trust me, Jet. If you're a purple and you don't want anyone else to find out, Gloria and I can both keep a secret. After the night you and Spyro marked one another, were there a bunch of scales scattered across the cave floor?" Jet replied hastily, "No. No there was not." Hunter said, "You don't need to lie to me, Jet.

Jet looked at Hunter and sighed as she said calmly, "There were only a few. Probably from when he and I bit into one another's neck to inject the scent. Nothing else." Hunter asked, "Did you flip any of the scales over?"

Jet replied harshly, "No. No I didn't. Sorry that I was more concerned about Spyro and being worried sick over Spyro in case he wasn't strong enough to beat Cynder and me losing him forever than flipping a fucking scale over!"

Hunter said, clearly taken aback by her tone of voice, "Hey now. I was just asking. Do you remember where that cave is?" Jet answered, "Of course I do! It's to the south of here near the Wyvern village!" Hunter said, "So. We can tell Spyro that. He'll see the river, the bloodstain, etc. And maybe it'll jog his memory. Or at least clear some shit up. And we can check the cave for the scales to see if Gloria's and my theory is true."

Jet replied, "Just because Purple Dragons usually mark other Purple Dragons, does not automatically make me a purple."

Hunter replied, "True. But it gives you a higher probability of being a purple." Jet immediately retorted, "I don't give a fuck if I am a purple or not! I just wanna help Spyro and Cynder save Dragon Realm! The fact that at least two purples were born in this age means something more evil than Malefor is coming!"

Gloria walked over and asked, "What's with all the chatter?" Jet explained to Gloria what Hunter and her were talking about. Gloria said, "So. We need to head south to potentially jog up some memories." Jet sighed and said, "We could. But the issue is if Spyro remembers and brings it up before Cynder and I get closer, I will be forced to leave. I may love Spyro, but I'm not trying to take Spyro away from Cynder. If the worst case scenario happens, it is what it is."

Spyro walked over and asked jokingly, "So. What's with the group meeting?" Jet looked at him and replied, "I was asking Hunter and Gloria if they heard any trouble; as cheetahs do have a better hearing than dragons." Gloria said, "Yeah. And we did to the south of where we currently are. But the issue is that we believe it's near a Wyvern village. That's a lot of potential trouble that I'm not sure we are prepared to take on." Spyro replied, "I have faith in us. We can and will do it." Hunter said, "As you wish. You having faith in us is enough for me."

Spyro smiled and said, "Perfect. Now. Rest up while we can and we head out in the morning." Jet said, "Sounds like a plan, Spyro."

The next morning, Spyro woke up first. He muttered, "So. Why in the world did I feel like I got struck by lightning when Jet was. Unless…" Spyro shook his head and said, "I'm sure it's nothing. I'm sure that Cynder got hit with some of the residual effects and that's why I felt it. That has to be it. Maybe." Spyro muttered to himself, "There's gotta be a reason why the electricity crackling across Jet's voluptuous body aroused me a little bit. But what if what I find out isn't ideal. Hmmm."

Spyro's curiosity got the better of him and he delved deep within his conscience, trying to find something. He found a different channel than the one he had with Cynder. He tried to communicate through it, but his thoughts were sent back violently. Spyro growled lightly and rammed his consciousness against the channel, trying to force it open.

After what felt like an eternity, Spyro managed to break open the other channel. Suddenly, a barrage of thoughts struck Spyro's mind like mortar shells. The most common thought that hit Spyro was, 'Please give me a sign that you're okay Spyro! I don't want to lose the one I love so soon!' The second most common thought was, 'Please come back to me!' One thought overpowered the rest as it was depressing as it was thought in a sad and depressing matter, 'Y-You didn't make it. Did you? S-She killed you, didn't she? You would've responded by now if you were still alive. I'll remain a widow for life. I love you Spyro, and I always will. I will see you on the other side when the Ancestors deem it my time to join you.' Spyro at this point blacked out, the constant barrage of thoughts all at once; too much to handle.

Jet woke up and saw Spyro sitting up. She said, "Hey Spyro." When she got no reply, Jet walked over just as Spyro began to fall forwards. Jet bolted over and leapt towards Spyro with a powerful leap. She caught Spyro before he hit the ground. The two rolled on the ground, Jet forcing herself to take the brunt of the impacts.

Jet wound up on bottom and sighed in relief as the two stopped rolling. The noise of the dragons rolling on the ground woke everyone up. Jet immediately said before Cynder got aggressive, "Spyro fainted! I leapt to catch him!" Cynder immediately ran over and said, "I appreciate you putting yourself at risk to catch him. Any idea why he fainted?" Jet shook her head when thoughts bombarded her mind.

Jet heard the voice in her mind that she hadn't heard for so long, 'I don't remember who you are, but I'm fine. Sorry it took me so long to reply. Mind if I ask who you are?' Jet took a silent breath and muttered, "Do I reveal who I am? Or do I keep it mysterious? I trust him, but if I tell him now, who knows what could happen? Fuck it. Let's tell him."

Jet replied mentally, 'It's me Spyro. Jet.' Spyro replied, disbelief clear in his thoughts, 'Jet! You're my other mate?!' Jet replied, her thoughts brimming with happiness, 'Yes yes yes. It's me Spyro! It's been so long! I thought I lost you forever! When you didn't reply for two years, I feared the worst. I heard talk of a purple dragon out there fighting Malefor's forces. It restored my hope. And then I saw you after I got shot out of the sky. That's why my expression immediately changed when I saw you. I recognized you immediately.'

Spyro replied, 'That makes sense. That's why I felt like I got struck by lightning when you were hit with it. It all makes sense now. The fuck were those cryptic messages you sent me?' Jet replied, 'They weren't supposed to be cryptic. You only got a small portion of the messages as our connection was weak. I was trying to get you to remember me and the meetings we had when we were younger.' Spyro replied, 'Makes sense. Thanks for catching me. And sorry. I still don't remember everything.' Jet replied, 'It's fine. I'm just glad that you're alive. We should probably stop talking in the mind channel before people ask questions.'

Spyro came to and gently got off of Jet. He offered his paw to help her to her feet. Jet took it and said, "Thanks Spyro." Cynder asked Spyro, "Why'd you faint? Have you been getting enough sleep?" Spyro replied, "I have no idea Love. I believe I have been. Maybe I need to drink more water to stay hydrated." Cynder said, "More than likely. Promise to take care of yourself." Spyro replied, "I promise Cyn."

Cynder asked, "So. Now that we have rested, what's the plan Spyro?" Spyro replied, "The plan is we investigate what Hunter and Gloria heard to the south of us. Wake up everyone else Jet, please." Jet replied calmly, "As you wish."

There we go! But the question is what happens next. Only time will tell.
