darkSpyro

Ok! This the first time I have tried to write a Spyro story, So it's probably going to be awful. The story is about my character Esmerelda, and her quest to save Avalar. Some old characters like Elora, Hunter and Moneybags might be showing up later. The first bit is mainly character description, It may be a bit boring, but I like to describe my characters in detail so that people can get a clear image of what they look like. Now onto the story:

-----------------------------------------
A soft wind whistled through the trees, shaking the leaves from the branches and carrying them
off into the sun. It was a warm sunny day in summer forest, and a young female dragon could be seen
sitting by the large pond. This dragon was Esmerelda, she had lived in Avalar for all her life. She had
pretty green scales and a deep brown belly. Her eyes were soft and yellow, and they reflected every
emotion that the dragon felt. Because of this, she was an awful liar, you could always see the truth in
her eyes. On her legs were brown leather bracers, decorated with beautiful swirling patterns. On her
head were two long brown horns. Although they looked deadly, Esme was not known for her physical
strength and combat skills, so using them in a fight would be a last resort. Esme possesed only one
element, Earth. When it was used, she would become one with nature and could do some serious
damage. She could fell the pain of the trees during a storm, she could hear the cries of the flowers
when they were pulled from the earth. Because of this, she has made it her duty to protect avalar, she
would make sure that no harm came to the peaceful land, even if her life depended on it.
-----------------------------------------

If you see any mistakes, please let me know! More background info about Esme will be coming soon.

Why do you lay your story out like that?

Like what?

So far good, even through earth is my least favorite element... lol :b

Thank you! Well, It's kind of different from in the games. I haven't fully worked it out yet though. The next part should be done soon.

Like what?

Like you press the enter button after every 2 sentences.

Oh, that's because I don't have microsoft word at the moment, so I have to write in notepad. If I don't press enter, then it just keeps going in one line, and that makes it really difficult for me to read. Sorry if it annoys you.
Anyway, here is part 2! I wanted to write more in this bit, but it was getting too long.

------------------------------------
Sighing, Esme layed down on the warm steps next to the pond. She dipped her tail into the
lukewarm water and closed her eyes. Her mind drifted to her home in Glimmer. She saw her mother,
Bree, A kind yellow-green dragoness with a small, petite body. She was an earth dragon just like Esme,
and she cared deeply for the land of Avalar. Her father was there too, and just by looking at him you
could tell that he was Esme's father. He had a long skinny body and enormous wings. His name was
Valentine, and he was the wisest Dragon in all of Avalar. He was unable to use any kind of breath attack,
but his agility and speed more than made up for it. He was the one that inspired Esme to look after
Avalar. Last but not least, Esme's baby sister, Pie, was sleeping in her bed, surrounded by stuffed toys.
Pie had Green-yellow scales just like her mother, and just like her father she was unable to use breath
attacks. Esme smiled in her sleep, She really should visit them more often. When Esme was fourteen
years old, she left her home in glimmer to go and live with her friend, Elora the faun. In Avalar, there
isn't a legal age for somebody to leave home, It's all up to the parents. In this case, Esme's parents
were more than happy to let the young dragon move out, as they knew that she could take care of herself.
------------------------------------

Once again, let me know if there are any mistakes.

Thank you! Usually I just write the first paragraph of a story and forget about it. But for some reason I feel like finishing this one. Next part.

-------------------------------------
"Morning Elora!" Esme said sleepily as she walked into the kitchen. She pulled out a chair and
sat at the large wooden table. "Hey Esme! Honestly I don't know how you can get up so late. Your so
lazy!" Esme laughed nervously and walked to the cupboard. She sang a little tune to herself as she
poured herself a bowl of cornflakes. "Hey Elora, have you seen Riddles anywhere?" Just as Elora was
about to reply a small purple rabbit with a big pink nose jumped out of one of the cupboards. "Riddles!
there you are!" The rabbit jumped onto her shoulder and licked her face. Smiling, Esme ate the rest of her
breakfast and dumped her bowl in the sink. She walked to her room and took out a small black box from
her desk. She looked inside and smiled. She set it down on top of her desk and picked up a necklace.
The necklace was made of brown string and had a paperclip twisted into a swirl hanging off of it. Pie had
lovingly made it for her when she was at the dragon shores nursery. Esme tied it round her neck and
looked under her bed. Spreading her arms out as far as she could reach, her tail swinging wildly in the
air, she managed to grab hold of the dusty shoebox. As she pulled it out, the dust flew up in her face,
causing het to sneeze loudly. "Damn allergies.." She muttered under her breath. She opened the box and
took out a peice of yellow ribbon, Smiling to herself as she tied it around the black box. Esme left her
room and opened the front door of the house. "Where are you off to without saying goodbye?" Turning
around, Esme saw elora standing in the kitchen, wearing a cute pink apron and holding a rolling pin.
"I was just off to see my family in Glimmer. And what on earth have you been doing?" Elora hung her
flour covered head in despair. "The Annual Avalar fair is tomorrow, you know, the one where we
celebrate Spyro defeating Ripto." Esme nodded and urged her to carry on. "Well, I'm supposed to bake
a cake for the Fair, But I'm hopeless! I've never made a cake in my life! I don't know why I agreed
to this." Esme smiled. She put down the box, walked over to Elora and gave her a hug.
"Don't worry, as soon as I get back, I'll help you to bake that cake. Your only doing this because Spyro`s
coming aren't you?" Elora gave a shy smile and blushed. " I'll take that as a yes. I'll be back as quick
as I can, Ok?" She said, picking up the box and running out the door, quickly followed by Riddles.
----------------------------------

Yes, there is going to be some Elora/Spyro in this story.

GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!

If 'cha don't have MS Office Word, just download Abiword, it should work at last better than notepad

Thanks Matesds! I'll try that later. I've only just got up so I haven't written the next part yet. When this story is finished, I might write some short stories about Bree, Valentine and Pie. The next part has got Bianca/Hunter in it.
Next part

-----------------------------------
Esme ran through the stone halls until she reached a clearing with a tree in the middle. Hunter
the Cheetah and his girlfriend Bianca the Rabbit were sitting on the grass, leaning against the tree. Hunter
was asleep with his head on bianca's shoulder, and Bianca had a book of spells on her lap. "Hey Bianca!"
Esme whispered. "Hm?" Bianca looked up at Esme and smiled. "Hello Esme. Where are you off to?"
Esme smiled "I'm going to visit my family in glimmer." She looked at hunter, "what happened to him?"
Bianca turned to hunter and affectionatly stroked his fur "I was practicing spells and Hunter accidently
got in the way. It was a sleeping spell, so I'm looking for a way to reverse it." Bianca sighed and went
back to reading her book. "oh, well I hope that you can find a way to wake him up. Bye!" Esme walked
away whilst Bianca waved at her. Soon Esme reached a small pool of water which led to a tunnel. She
clutched the box tightly in her claw and jumped into the cool water. Now, although Esme loved water,
she wasn't exactly the best swimmer. She took a deep breath and pushed herself under the water,
slowly kicking her legs as she swam clumsily through the tunnel. At the other side of the tunnel was
the pond that Esme was sitting beside yesterday. All kinds of colourful fish were dotted around the large
pond. Broken peices of glass rested on the muddy ground, Left there from when Spyro saved Avalar.
Esme was so caught up in the beautiful surroundings that she forgot to come up for breath. She climbed
out of the water and started coughing crazily. "I'll just have a little rest before I get to glimmer" She muttered
to herself. Just as her eyes were closing she was rudely awakened. "I couldn't help but notice your little
accident just there. I think I have just the thing you need." Esme looked up to see a fat brown bear wearing
a suit and a monicle. "This state of the art swim gear will ensure that little mistakes like that will never
happen again." In his hand was a snorkel and a pair of goggles that didn't even look like they would fit
on her face. Esme just shot him a death glare and Walked off, box in hand.
