Here we go again!
Chapter 20: The Talk
Everyone's eyes slowly opened. Jet looked at Fury and Lola standing over her. Her eyes locked onto Fury and she asked, "Are you back to normal?" Fury laughed and said, "Yes. Yes I am. Sorry you had to deal with my darker side." Jet looked at Lola and asked, "Are you alright?" Lola replied, "Cynder and I will be fine. I definitely exerted more energy than I expected so early into being awakened. I do need to get some sleep. I will be returning control to Cynder. Fix yourself up Jet. We can all see the purple crackling across your voluptuous body." Jet blushed and stopped the purple crackling across her body. Lola said groggily, "Good. Now. I need to rest up. Cynder will be in control now."
Lola's body changed as she returned control back to Cynder. Fury, Jet, and Sparx watched as Cynder was given control. Fury caught her before she fell and he said, "Hey you." Cynder looked at Fury and she said, "S-Spyro?" Fury shook his head and replied, "It's Fury. Jet fought long enough for you to connect with your other half, and she kicked ass. Just like you do. Dark Fury is no more. Lola filled me in. You and I are chill. You are no longer the enemy and are in fact Spyro's mate." Fury looked at Hunter and Gloria and he bolted towards them. Fury asked, "You okay Hunter?" Hunter replied in pain, "I've definitely been better. Thankfully you didn't hit an artery." Fury said, "That is good. I am sorry that you had to deal with my darker side. I do believe the only reason you aren't dead is because Spyro forced the tail to strike your collarbone."
Hunter said weakly, "No shit dumbass. Is Gloria okay? That's all I care about. She went toe to toe with your darker side for several minutes." Fury looked at Gloria, looking for injuries. Fury saw nothing but surface injuries that had already begun to scab and heal. Fury walked over and listened for a heartbeat. He heard a strong one and he whistled and said, "That's truly impressive. Only surface injuries. She'll be fine and heal up just fine. She's just unconscious. Her body was in fight or flight response, and thinking she was going to die, released noradrenaline instead of adrenaline, meaning she unleashed her full potential in combat. Usually noradrenaline only releases when one is about to die so you can give a last stand per say, but then again. Our group is full of surprises. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if we all couldn't get hit with adrenaline, but instead get hit with noradrenaline in combat." Hunter sighed in relief and said, "Good. I can happily die now." Fury shook his head and said with authority, "Do not joke like that. No one is dying on this journey. I refuse to let it happen."
Hunter looked at Fury and said, "You got it." Fury said, "Good. Now. I have healed Spyro up. He will be returning shortly. Do not question him about what Dark Fury said to him. I will talk to him." Slowly but surely, Fury's body reverted back to Spyro's normal color as Spyro was given control. Spyro looked around at the battleground seeing cracks in the tower everywhere. His eyes wandered over his group and he asked, "Is everyone alright?" Sparx exclaimed, "The fuck does it look like? We fought your dark side and nearly all got eviscerated!"
Spyro visibly winced and he replied, "Sorry about that. I was able to make sure Dark Fury didn't kill any of you. But besides that, he was in control. But he is no more now, thank the Ancestors."
Cynder looked at Jet and offered a paw to help her up. Jet took it hesitantly and she said, "Y-You wanted to talk after this?" Cynder nodded and said, "Come on. You can lean on me." Jet looked at her in shock, but leaned heavily on her. Cynder whispered to her, "Don't look so shocked. I'm growing quite fond of you being in this group." Jet blushed lightly and nodded in understanding. Cynder looked at Spyro and said, "I will be taking Jet to the other side of the tower. No one follow us. That includes you too, Sparx." Sparx sighed and said, "Damn it."
Spyro eyed the two curiously and Cynder noticed. She giggled and said, "Don't worry Love. Nothing is gonna happen. I promise." Cynder led Jet to the other side of the tower. Cynder looked at her and said, "Let's cut right to it. I know you love Spyro." Jet gulped and said, "I can leav…" Cynder gently smacked the top of Jet's head with her tail and said, "No. You will not be leaving. For… reasons." Jet looked at her, shock clear in her face.
Jet asked, "A-Are you falling for me too?" Cynder blushed and said, "Hush. But to answer your question. Maybe." Jet giggled and said, "I'ma take that as a yes." Cynder blushed more.
Jet whispered into Cynder's ears, "I'm falling for you too." Cynder blushed a dark red and hid her face. Jet unhid Cynder's face gently and said, "A beautiful face should never be hidden from the world." Cynder blushed more and said, "Hush!" Jet smiled.
Cynder said seriously, fighting against how flustered she was feeling, "Seriously though, do not talk about leaving anymore. I don't want that. Spyro doesn't want it. None of us want you to leave. If you get me and Spyro to completely fall for you, I do not mind sharing. Truthfully, the thought about sharing Spyro never occurred to me until you joined this group. I do not know why, but it has to mean something." Jet thought to herself, 'I know what it means. Then again. I am the only one in this group that knows that Spyro, Cynder, and myself are destined to be mates with one another. And the only reason I know that is because Cynder healed me when we were at my mother's house.'
Jet said, "That is indeed weird. But alright. I won't talk about leaving anymore." Cynder smiled and said, "Thank you. No. Let's get back to the group." Jet nodded her understanding and let Cynder lead her back to the group.
Spyro watched them come back. Hunter was on his feet again and he picked up Gloria's unconscious body. He draped it over his shoulder gently and asked, "You two have a good talk?" Cynder replied, "Yeah. We did. Are we ready to go?" Spyro looked at Hunter and Hunter said, "I'm fine. We can leave." Spyro smiled and said, "Alright. If you say so. Our first task will be to attempt to find a Destroyer and kill it. We need to make progress. On me!"
Well. It is shorter, but I'm getting back in the saddle as they say. May the Ancestors watch over you all. Until next time, HappytheExceed16, logging out!
