Well, here it is, redone, and with Xtra bits!-------------------------------------------
Chapter 1- The Battlefield
-------------------------------------------
Tornada the earth dragon rose up on to her back legs and let the power of earth flow through her veins. BAM! And all of the rock golems and minions were little piles of gravel on the floor. She dropped out of the sky, eager to see how her friends were doing. She had jade green scales, darker green wings with a dusty brown membrane.
"Lava? Eclipse?" She called to her companions.
"I’m here. But I don't know where Lava is, you know her, wanting to check for any embers she created!" Eclipse the male black dragon called. He had Purple eyes and a jet black body.
Tornada sighed,
“Well, you know she still feels guilty about that forest fire she accidentally started.”
In all the piles of cinders and hot pebbles of the battlefield there was a orangey-red lump.
"Lava!" Eclipse and Tornada chorused. They ran toward her. She was a out cold.
"She did a fire fury. Her fury must have been powerful, it killed all of the enemies around her and knocked her out!" Tornada noticed, studying the scorch marks on the floor, which stretched across about thirty square meters.
"Oomph." Lava grunted, just coming out of unconsciousness.
"She's awake!" Eclipse exclaimed.
"What happened? I did a fury, then I can’t remember." She asked. Then she started to groan about the cut in her shoulder. She asked what happened again, as she never felt pain for long.
"You blacked out." Eclipse said, sounding slightly bored.
"What? How?” Lava questioned, befuddled.
“Well, my theory is that you unleashed a wave of fire so powerfully, that not only killed the enemies around you, you used so much energy at once it knocked you out.” Tornada explained.
“Wow, I didn’t know I could do that!” Lava whispered, not at all modest. “Can we go home now; I still need to clean this cut.”
“Ok. I need a herb on this bruise, anyway.” Eclipse grunted. Only Tornada had not been hurt. The small groups of Shadow Creatures here only had weak weapons, so they could not pierce her rock-hard scales.
They lived in a hill. It had an opening in one side that led in to the large chamber that they lived in. A tall, proud oak tree stood gallantly on the height of the hill. It was slightly diagonal, because of the Northern Wind that pressed against the hill tirelessly. The roots of the old tree had punctured the roof of their cave. The dragons had hung jewels that reflected the light from them, so that at sunset the chamber glowed all the colours of the rainbow.
In the chamber each of the dragons had a bed made of moss, though the one lava slept in was singed brown, as she often sneezed embers. As they settled down, Tornada hung a sparkly red jewel from a string above her head. Lava got some herbs and padded them over her cuts.
"Ouch." she winced.
"That is a bad one, looks like a scavenger’s sword. You should clean that with wet moss then pad the herbs in." Eclipse told her.
"Ok, but it might stop me walking for a while on that paw." She commented. Eclipse and Tornada chuckled.
"What? What is so funny?" Lava asked. She never stopped running, walking or flying whether it hurt or not.
"Oh, just that Eclipse said something funny!" Tornada lied.
They all settled down to sleep. Tornada was having a nice dream about a field where only the sheep called fodder lived. She could hunt freely, never missing. She readied to pounce on an unsuspecting fodder, when a dragons face suddenly appeared. He was Purple, with yellow horns.
“You need to help us, the temple is under attack and the guardians have been taken to the Dark Master. Cynder has been corrupted again and just please, please help.....”
“ I have asked you, Tornada, because we are descendants of the same family.” The illusion said in it’s battle-tinged but pleading voice.
"We are not! Lava and Eclipse and I are orphans, a bunch of friendly Manwersmalls raised us!"
“But your mother was an egg from the same clutch as my mother's. We are kin and we can help each other…”
And the dream ended.
"Wake up! Wake up Tornada!" Lava was shaking her awake.
"What is it?!" she asked leaping up immediately, if Lava was up, there really was something happening, as Lava liked her sleep.
"There is strange ice and electricity dragons outside! They call themselves Evif and Xis, Five and Six backwards! They want to see you in private!" she blurted out.
Tornada padded to the entrance, calming herself, and wondering why Lava was so scared.
"Hi, uh, I am Tornada. What do you want?"
"You had that dream last night didn't you?" Evif asked her.
"That purple dragon? Yes. Why?"
"Because we are here to take you, Lava and Eclipse to the temple where you will find him." The blue and white ice dragon replied,.
Tornada nodded and paced back into the cave. "Lava? Eclipse?"
"We are here." Lava said as she stepped from the shadows and Eclipse was close behind. Tornada made a quick explanation and asked them whether they were ready.
So they knew what was happening and were ready for flight.
"How much longer do we have to fly?" Lava asked, complaining. Evif and Xis were from the temple and had been trained to be the next guardians after Volteer, the electricity guardian, and Cyril the ice guardian. They we masters of their element too. They were all flying over a gusty, windy, stormy sea.
"There it is!" Evif said. He veered towards a island with a temple on it. They landed on stone courtyard near a massive door that look as though it was just waiting to swallow them up. Tornada swallowed her fear and walked in.
"Evif! Xis!" A voice called, a purple dragon steeped out of the shadows and greeted them.
“And you must be Lava, Tornada and Eclipse! Come quickly I fear that Cynder will return to get us." They followed him in to a secret room that anyone would have passed over. The door was hidden in a bush and the room was underground. "I am Spyro, the last purple dragon apart from that evil beast Malefor. He has taken the guardians to harness his powers, he will torture them into telling secrets of elemental power, and if that knowledge that is in the wrong hands it could do an awful lot of damage." he paused, " Tornada, you have the strongest earth powers I have ever seen, and you have a destiny to become a guardian! Lava, you have very powerful use of fire and can also breath lava, which even a purple dragon cannot do! You will be the next fire guardian! Eclipse, you have more power in shadow than Cynder, although she has more power in poison. You will be the first Shadow guardian! But now we must save the current guardians and Cynder, she means so much more to me than you shall ever know." His face was filled with sorrow. "But now, we need to go and rescue the guardians. They need us just like we need them. First we shall rescue Ignitus as he has sharp ears and can pick up where the other guardians are being kept. We need to go to the enchanted forest!"
