darkSpyro

You know, I used to write fanfiction such a long time ago... And occasionaly when I get bored I look back at my first work and think "Wow... This is a load of crap..." So, out of sheer bordom with nothing to do, I'm actualy going to attempt to write atleast 1 more fanfic... So, here it is...

Anyway, this is set in the 14 month gap between DOTD and my fan game, TDoS TDS... Enjoy

Chapter I

The sun shone down onto the soft green meadows of Avalar as the grass slowly moved side to side in the soft summer breeze. All was silent and calm as two Dragons lay down watching the sun as it slowly crawled across the sky. Spyro turned and staired into Cynder's mint green eyes as they were illuminated by the sunlight. He could not believe that this day would finally come, ever since he had discovered he was a Dragon chaos followed him everywhere he went, but no more. He was able to relax in the peace and harmony of Avalar without every worrying again. However, Cynder was still uneasy. She was not convinced they had killed Malefor, and she knew that Spyro was the same but could tell he chose to ignore it. She had known Malefor for such a long time, and she most certainly knew that he always had a way to cheat death. But for now, she tried her best to be like Spyro and ignore their past as much as she could. All that she could think about was all that time that she was trained to be a born killer and raised to fight for Malefor's twisted cause. She couldn't get it out of her head, especially after what Malefor had done to her not long before they had both defeated him. However, she still tried her best to not think about that.

Night seamed to fall quickly to the two Dragons as they both made their way back to the valley. The stars in the night sky still shone in the pattern of a Dragon, a symbol of their victory over Malefor. It is at these times that Spyro worries about what would have happened if he had not restored the world. But he soon dismisses this thought as he turned to look at Cynder as she walked beside him. "Come on, we should get back to the village before it gets too dark." He said with a concerned tone in his voice. Cynder nodded in agreement as they both sprinted towards the village. Spyro smiled as he watched Cynder run beside him. They could see the faint glow of the torches in the village in the distance. Everyone would probably be asleep by now so they would have to be as quiet as possible. The two of them slept where they always did, by one of the tall pillars at the entrance of the village. Cynder looked at Spyro as they lead their heads on the ground "Good night." she whispered as she smiled at him.

Edit: I've changed the title... Don't know why

Cool story

Chapter II

The large beast tapped its shimmering claws impatiently on the the side of his golden thrown. His eyes shone a dark red as he survayed the room in the night. 'Be paitent, and do not disstrust your minions... They will find it soon enough' the voice said in his head. It had been a voice he had heard for almost a year. It almost taunted him, reminded him of the times that he was free from it, the times that he wanted back. But non the less, he still obayed its every word. The large brown door infront of him opened as his highduke walked in keeping his head low as he walked closer to the emperor. "If I may... Emperor" he said bowing down. "As you wish" the empeor spoke with his deep booming voice, he had not been the same ever since he started hearing the voice. "Do you know where it is?" he continued. The highduke lifted his head and staired into his glowing red eyes uneasy. "We are close, we have reason to believe that it did not perish along with Malefor's lair. I have personaly inspected ever inch of the shaft that leads to the planets core, it is no where to be seen." The highduke said nerviously as he could sence the emperor's rage.

"Then, why don't you look somewhere else... You have had plenty of time to find it!" he yelled at the top of his voice. "Forgive me, emperor, but there are not enough of us after what Malefor did, it will take time." He protested. The emperor began to smile as if enjoying the highdukes cowardous. "Time which we do not have... Remember that, you wouldn't want to end up like he before you." He reminded the highduke as he nodded showing he understood what he was told. "Good, now gather more troops. And be quick about it." The highduke nodded once more and walked through the large wooden door back into the city. The stars shone down on him from the sky above, he didn't know what to do, he was given a near impossible task. 'He won't need to find it, it will come to us...' the voice continued to echo in the emperor's head. "And what if he doesn't find it? What will happen to me?" He asked almost worried. 'I will make sure that he will find it. Don't you worry about that'. The emperor had to take its word. He was tierd and it was late. He needed to rest for the night.

Chapter III

"Have you found anything yet?" The highduke yelled down to the Wyverns as they burrowed deep into the catacombs. There was a long pause but suddenly a faint voice could be heard. "Not yet sir! I doubt we'll find it here!" a Wyvern yelled back to him. The highduke sighed, it was yet another day and more time waisted, he was almost sure it would be there and was determained to stay there until they found it. "Just... Keep looking! A promotion to the Wyvern that finds it!" He yelled knowing that he couldn't offer them anything really, but would have to convince the emperor later. However, whether it was true or not, this certainly encouraged the Wyverns to look deeper into the catacombs. "Do you think we'll ever find it?" whispered one Wyvern to the others. They all staired at eachother with an almost blank expression on their faces. "We'll just have to wait and see, if its what the emperor wants then it must be done..." one of them eventualy spoke. He looked at them all as they all staired at where his left eye would normaly be, a scar stretched from where his eye had been to the beginning of his mouth.

"There have been many wars over the years, but this... This is something different, he needs this for something." They continued. All the other Wyverns nodded in agreement as they turned to look at eachother one by one. "Well then, lets keep going..." Another Wyvern said as they continued to lift rocks out of place and move statues to find what they were looking for. It had been hours and they still dug deeper and deeper into the catacombs. "Theres nothing here! We've been looking for hours! Can't we just give up!" One Wyvern yelled but before anyone could make a remark a green light suddenly flooded their eyes. "What is that?!" one of the Wyverns yelled sheilding their eyes with their wings. The light slowly dimmed as they all began to move forwards. "I'm not sure, but I don't think its what we're looking for..." said the Wyvern with no left eye as he walked closer towards it. Another Wyvern yelled up the shaft that lead to the surface. "Sir! We've found something! But we're not sure what it is!" they yelled waiting for the highduke to respond. "Bring it to the surface." He yelled after a long pause. There was silence, and then the sound of rocks shifting as the Wyverns attempted to pull the large green object from the rocks.

wow nice story!!

Apparently, I've still got it...

Chapter IV

Spyro opened his eyes as he was blinded by the bright sun that was at the top of the sky. 'How long was I alseep?' He thought to himself as he looked around for Cynder. She was no where to be seen, the only people in the village were Hunter and Meadow. Spyro slowly walked up to them, trying to not act concerned. "Ah, Spyro, your awake. How was your sleep." Hunter asked as he lowered himself to Spyro's height. Spyro nodded and smiled. "Fine..." he replyed. "You havn't by any chance seen Cynder? Or Sparx?" Spyro asked the two of them. "Of course, Cynder's gone with the Cheif and the others to collect some food for tonight, fish and herbs..." Meadow said as he pointed out towards the valley. Spyro turned his head to look at the valley and then back to Meadow. "Thanks." Spyro said running off into the distance. "Does he not know?" Meadow whispered to Hunter after Spyro had left. Hunter shook his head and looked Meadow in the eye worridly. "Then we must tell him..." Meadow insisted. Hunter shook his head. "Paitence, Meadow..."

Cynder looked up at Cheif Prowlus has he and the others gathered fish from the stream. "Cynder!" Spyro yelled from the distance as he ran closer to Cynder. Cheif Prowlus rolled his eyes at the sound of Spyro's voice. He still didn't trust him, no matter what he could do. Cynder smilied to Spyro as he ran closer to her. "Hi Spyro..." She said as he arrived infront of her. "How are you? Did you sleep well?" Spyro asked. Cynder nodded with a smile. Cheif Prowlus turned to face Spyro. "Whilst your here can you atleast be of some use?" He insisted. Spyro was confused. "Whats wrong with him?" Spyro whispered to Cynder. She shook her head. "Its nothing," she said "He's just worryed about tonight." Spyro looked at Cynder curiously. "What happens tonight?" Spyro asked clueless. Cynder looked around at Cheif Prowlus and then to Spyro. She walked away from him and signaled for Spyro to follow. "You mean they havn't told you?" she asked. "They told me you already knew..." Spyro was even more puzzled than before. "Told me what? This is the first I've heard of anything!" He asked confused. Cynder sighed and shook her head. "Its the Wyverns, the others have planned to raid them, tonight..." Cynder whispered to Spyro. "We have to stay here Spyro, its too dangerious for you to go... You're too important, and I-" Cynder said but before she could finish Spyro interupted her. "I know Cynder, I understand." He said as he smilied to Cynder but deep down, he still had questions which were unanswered.

nice chapter.

I would write some more for tonight, but I'm too tierd and can't be bothered ...

i know how you feel...

I'll get chapter V done soon... I've been working on something for the past few days so... Yeah... I havn't really been on here much...

Chapter V

Hours had past, and the Wyverns had finaly set the green object free. It was a large chest with a surface of green gems on its lid. They all shook their heads in dissbelief at the extraudinary chest. They had never seen anything like it before. After a few minutes of admiring its surface, the Wyverns continued to push the chest up the shaft to where the highduke stook waiting. He paced around the entrance to the shaft worrying but at the same time excited. If it was what they were looking for, then this would certainly please the emperor. The highduke stopped in his tracks as he saw a green chest being pushed up the shaft. He dug his claws into the green gem and pulled it out and onto the surface. "Argh! Damnit!" he said under his breath as he inspected his claws. Wyverns are allergic to gems, what gives Dragon's energy takes Wyverns away. "Are you alright sir?" One of the Wyverns said. The highduke nodded. "Its the gem, don't touch it!" He insisted. All the Wyverns nodded showing that they understood. The highduke sood infront of it inspecting the chest as all the other Wyverns looked at eachother puzzled. "Not to be rude, sir, but if we can't touch the gems how can we open it?" One of the Wyverns said pointing towards the lock, wich was surrounded in the same green Gem on the lid.

The highduke took note of what the Wyvern had said. He moved around to the side with the lock and managed to wedge his large horns under the lid of the chest. He pulled it open with all his force and eventualy managed to open it up. As he did, a cloud of purple excaped from the chest and a shadowy figure of a Dragon appeared before the Wyverns. It looked around and glaired at them all curiously and with a bright light it was gone. "Malefor..." the highduke said under his breath. All the other Wyverns looked at him. There was a moment of silence until the higduke lowered his head and looked down into the chest. In the chest, lay four crystals, each with a different shape, colour and size. "No... It can't be..." The highduke said as he lifted one of the crystals in his mouth and placed it on the floor infront of him. One crystal was long and smooth, it glowed a dark purple as he touched it, the next was transparent with sharp edges, the third was red and diamond shaped and the fourth was grey, like rock, with one sharp corner pointing upwards and a flat base. "I've heard about them before but, I never thought they were real." The highduke said shaking his head in dissbelif. "What is it? Is it what the emperor wanted?" A Wyvern asked. The highduke nodded with a smilie. "It is, and its much, much more..."

another great chapter... even though i cant wait (!) take ur time.

I'll probably do chapter VI later today... I'm trying to think of which side of the story I should do in the next chapter...

Chapter VI

The reflection of the two moons shimmered in the calm waters near the Wyvern's castle. The emperor remained sat in his thrown. He couldn't get to sleep that night, the voice was louder than ever before. 'You lack faith in my word? They will bring it here... It will be done...' it said to the emperor, but all the emperor wanted was for it to go away. "I do have faith, but I would much rather you not talk to me at the moment..." he insisted. There was silence as the emperor was expecting for a responce but there was still nothing. "Very well..." the emperor had said as he slowly began to fall asleep. 'I may be silent now, but I won't be forever. You can't ever silence me' the voice whispered into his head, but the emperor was alseep. He was not aware of what the voice had just said and would not be aware of what was going to happen next.

A small brown boat, floating on the dark sea, made its way slowly towards the shore of the island. "Don't make a sound..." whispered cheif prowlus to the other cheetahs as they all slowly made their way out of the boat and onto land. Armed with swords and arrows they quietly made their way to the front gate of the castle preparing for battle. However, as they pushed open the gate they looked inside the castle to find it was empty. There was no sign of anyone, all that remained were the small stone houses that the Wyverns lives in, aligned in rows each with a torch on its front wall. Cheif Prowlus nodded to Hunter and as he did, Hunter slowly sneaked up to one of the houses and looked through a small hole for a window inside the house. There, laying on a small rug was a Wyvern asleep. Hunter slowly made his way back to Cheif Prowlus and whispered "There are some here, but their all asleep..." Cheif Prowlus was puzzled. "This isn't right..." he whispered. There were no guards, no one. "If their not here, then where are they all?"

Your stories are cool! Nobody reads mine.

I will continue with chapter VII soon...
