The Elemental Blade: Chapter 3
Chapter 3
Links' sword came in contact with Cynders' tail blade while Spyro rammed into Links' shield. The force pushed him back a few inches which gave Cynder the opportunity to jump on Link with her claws extended. They fell to the ground with Cynder on top of his shield. While she tries to claw him, he shoved her off with a grunt and got up just in time to parry with Spyros' claws. Link did a back flip to get some distance from the two dragons. Then he actually got a good look at them. There stood before him was a purple and black dragon.
-Flashback-
"We already have two, but they need another to aid them in their struggle to defend the Dragon Realm."
"Alright, I'll come. Who are the two others?"
"A purple dragon named Spyro and a black dragoness named Cynder. Now come with me."
-End Flashback-
Link came to his senses. "Wait, I'm not here to fight," he said holding his hands out.
This caught Spyro and cinder off guard. They both looked at each other then back at Link. "How can we trust you?" said Spyro.
"For starters, you are Spyro and you are Cynder," pointing at each of them.
"How do you know our names?" Cynder demanded.
"Another dragon told me your names, what was his name? I believe he called himself the Chronicler."
Spyros' eyes widened, "The Chronicler? Why would he come to you?"
Link shrugged his shoulders, "I'll tell you what I know." He sheathed his sword and put away his shield and told his story.
"... and he told me that you two needed help defending this realm," Link said, ending his story.
"But, there is no threat. Spyro and I took care of the Dark Master," Cynder said.
"Why would the Chronicler send you if there were no threat?" said Spyro 'Unless ... No'. He cleared his mind of that thought,
"Then I guess I'm staying here then till I can go to my world or realm or whatever."
"Where did you say you came from again?" Spyro asked.
"I'll tell you the whole story, but first we need to find camp, it's getting dark." They all agreed. After camp was set and a fire was going, they sat around the fire listening to Links' story. He left out the parts about Midna and turning into a wolf, since it would be too hard to explain. When his story was done, both Spyro and Cynder were astounded.
'Wow, I believe I know why the Chronicler chose him, but why now?' thought Spyro.
"You okay Spyro?" Cynder asked.
"Huh? Yeah, I'm okay."
"Well, it's getting late, we better get some sleep," Link told them. They both nodded and told each other good night and fell asleep under the stairs.
