Spyro's Legacy III: When All Has Gone

Prologue
Visions
__________________________________________

"It was only the years that would wear down upon those who had survived that one last battle with the darkness in the universe. No more would there be epic battles. No longer would there be large scale movements against or in support of a cause. No Longer did the days bear as much importance as they had once. Peace reigned over the lands for the most parts. The Generations came and went peaceably. The Hall of Love and War filled quickly with the emotions of the newest generations.

"Alnor and Jessica sailed through their lives. Time as it is it's nature weathered their bodys down to less than that of their youthful glory. All five of their birthed children lived this simple life. Their likes filling most of the most important stations. The lone excetion being that of the Earth Guardian. The purple dragon's family had nearly became a peaceful royal family."

*****

Ignitus set down the book as he reached the end of what he had written prior. He drew a long line under neath that entry and then he looked into his visionary lamp, and suddenly he was taken away to another place.

*****

Alnor layed weakly upon his bed. Familiar faces surrounded him on all sides. His faithful mate, Jessica, weakly resting on the bedside.

"Friends, you know that I shall not make the ending of my life last long. As life takes my powers away I now fully understand what this life is all about. To be humbled by the simple powers that we all have is a simple miracle that we all take for granted. To understand before the next life begins.

"Dalago, you know that I love you so. As the youngest I ask that you take care of all of your brothers and sisters as they begin to wither. I need you to be the stongest of the family and to keep them all in line.

"Farda, I remember telling you this so ever long ago. Now you are just getting to the same point as me and Jessica." The large declining orange dragon nodded solemnly back.

"Groness, As the middle child you never really get to be looked after or looked out for. You are more or less on your own in all of life. Of course I love you just the same honey. I have always treasured your advice in tough moments and I can't recall you ever letting me down.

"Fiona, I would always would look forward to our training sessions together. Your oddball tactics would always work and I have yet to discover why or how, but atlas I must resign my search for an answer.

"Dyfo, Dyfo, Dyfo. I can recall always going out into the wilderness and searching for remnants from ages past when you were little. I'll never forget the look on your face when we found that huge Dark Dragon Skull." Dyfo sent a weary smile back as he held back his laughter.

All of the children addressed Alnor turned towards Jessica. Her scarlet scales having faded to that of a dark pink hue. "Honey, ever since that day I met you in Warfang I knew that you were the one. The quickly closing events only added to my feelings for you. You stood by my side through out my life time and nothing could ever replace that."

"I would trade it for nothing." Jessica managed clearing tears from here eyes.

Alnor smiled "Me and you.."

"Together until the end." They then slowly pecked each other on the lips. Alnor squirmed a bit and then looked up to the ceiling in reflection. His entire life had been lived to reach this point in time. His legacy had been set in stone. Any aspirations for greater greatness had been expended slowly over his life time. How great it was to be young and have your whole life left to make something of yourself. Now he did nothing more than hold onto life.

Suddenly he felt an awkward feeling spread over him. His eyes widdened and his conciousness went away.

Something completely possessed his body. He suddenly looked more alive than he had in a long time. He sat up and began speaking in a deeper stronger voice.

"Days draw nearer. The Demons that you have thought destroyed still reside on this very planet. Their spirit draws energy and has all ready spent their energy to relinquish their powers. You peaceful days are numbered. Your ancient cities will fall and your traditions will be trampled. Your bodes will be the only things at peace. Resting in peace!"

Then Alnor returened. "Wha? What? What happened?"

Jessica's feelings of Concern and grieving melted together into a wide eyed cry. "I... I.... I.... don't... know...."

Spyro's Legacy III: When All Has Gone
Chapter 1
The Years

------------------------------------------

The Chronicler, Ignitus, looked down and pondered what he was to write. The bold white empty page set fourth before him beckoned to be written upon.

"The years need to be recorded Ignitus." chided a familiar voice.

"Yes, Spyro, I know. You don't have to remind me of that."

"Just thought that you might need some help."

Ignitus smiled into the rocky ceiling "You know I guess I did. I know what to write now. It's not often that I have to write one of these you know."

*****

Century 3 Post Dawn Era

At this night, the final night of the third post dawn century, there is little celebration. Warfang lies in enemy hands, many of our numbers forced into following one that they do not believe in. They are being forced at this very hour to work towards a goal that they do not want to achieve.

A new purple dragon born in the first generation of this century took Warfang by storm. He then proclaimed himself the "Dio" of the lands. That he was to be the supreme ruler of all.

This night there are only small pockets of resistance left. Their few numbers await the hatching. Hoping that on the night of hatching they are not attacked. That their patience have paid off and that they may finally welcome their new members.

The Dio watches and knows all. His powers unimaginable.

This night though they all wait and hope for their chance. Hoping that the next legendary purple dragon is birthed unto them rather than that of the darkness.

This century has been a dark one, but thanks to those who remain to fight for a future there remains a hope. A dim light through the ceiling. A dancing flicker of hope.

*****

It was dark, unimaginably dark. Nothing could be seen through the thick curtain of darkness. What had happened to the light?

Something in her mind told her that it was time to break the walls. That she should not be contained by them any longer. She shoved up against the walls with her legs. A new sensation now moved through all of her. It frightened her. She stretched out as by instinct as to do something but she only opened up more holes. The feeling persisted.

At this point she panicked. She tore around inside of her egg and ripped it apart. Suddenly finding her self on a new unfamiliar surface she jumped onto her legs and began to run from what something. Only to feel it more. She attempted to turn to the opposite direction but soon she had fallen to the ground. The feeling was gone.

Suddenly there was an awkward sound. "Honey! she has hatched!" it said in a deep voice and then it entered the room. With him came light.

"Oh! I'm coming!" came a softer one

She ran towards the light and tried to craw up her father's orange scales.

"Hello hatching"

She felt herself being lifted into the air. She now felt safe. She squeaked her excitement.

"Yes, Jayde, Everything is all right"

Spyro's Legacy III: When All Has Gone

Chapter 2
Male Intervention

----------------------------------------------------------

Jayde packed her book into her book strap and left her third period class. She was thrown into a chaotic mess of young dragons around her age. She could feel the eyes gazing upon her from each direction. She checked to make sure that she kept her head high, that her tail was not sagging, that her strides were even.

She heard heavy footsteps race up from behind her. "Jayde?!"

Jayde turned around and hurrying through the crowd came a bright Silver Dragon with a yellow underside. Her platinum scales gracefully reflecting onto Jayde's purple ones.

"Hey Shandy." Jayde said slowing down and pulling even with her. Then she leaned over into her ear "Have you seen him?" She whispered.

"Not yet."

"Ok"

"Did you get that history lesson about Spyro?" Shandy said aloud.

"Not really," Jayde replied.

"What? You mean that a purple dragon doesn't understand what another purple dragon had to go through?"

Jayde turned away for a second and put her head down to her opposite shoulder. She plainly remembered those nights when she would be tormented by visions of her family being brutally tortured. Nights that she would wake-up from her shallow sleep and her mind would not be her own. Some times she would even wake-up lying outside of the city gates. Always headed towards the enemy controlled Warfang.

"No,"

"Oh,"

It was her father, that first night that she had wondered off who came looking for her. Once he had found her they had a discussion right there on the spot.

*****

"Jayde," He had said "What are you doing out here?"

"I... I ... I don't know daddy" Jayde replied.

"What were you doing?"

"I... I don't know. I went to sleep and when I woke-up I was right here."

Her father looked around in bewilderment. The cold of night bit at Jayde's purple scales. The dew that dampened up the night began to form upon their backs, small droplets running down

Her father's orange face suddenly light-up but soon diminished.

"Jayde, you are not to tell anybody other than the elders and your trainers of this. Not anybody from your training classes, from your history classes, nobody else. You hear me?"

"Yes papa"

*****

"Oh, There he is!" Shandy whispered excitably in her ear.

Jayde turned her head in the direction that Shandy was looking and there she saw a handsome blue dragon moving in her direction. She glanced slightly in the other direction but kept him in the corner of her eye.

She watched as they moved closer together as he glanced into her direction and stared at her. He tapped his buddy in the shoulder and mouthed something to him. Then they split the blue dragon moving slightly closer towards Jayde. He still had his eyes locked onto her.

Jayde could not stand it any longer. She looked him straight in the eyes as he crossed nearly right beside her. "Hey honey," she said to him. "You just going to stare at me or are you doing to talk to me any?"

"Oh, I.... I..."

"Oh come on, admit it. You like me."

"Well, I... I do like you." He spat out.

"Ah there we go, I'm Jayde."

"I'm Barvin"

"Cool, I love your name. This is Shandy"

"Hello" Shandy replied half blushing.

"Hi"

Nothing was said for a moment then Jayde spoke up "So you go to training next right?"

"Yeah,"

"Cool, I have Helgar's class this month. It's my month to take ice training."

"Oh cool, Well you know class is this direction don't you?"

"Oh yeah," Jayde chuckled.

"Well see you later" Jayde said to Shandy with a wink.

"Later, Nice to meet you Barvin."

"You too"

And with that Barvin and Jayde walked off together to their Ice Training Class.
