Chapter Seven: The Upcoming Battle[/u]
Two days later and Nestor was in his study just reading through some papers with complicated runes inscribed on them, when a voice came out of the thin-air like before.
“Nestor, Nestor” Cried the voice
“I’m here, Cosmos” Nestor replied to the voice, “Any news about Raku?” Nestor asked
“That’s the reason why I’m calling you. I’ve come across part of Raku’s plan.” Cosmos started
“Go on” Nestor said, interested
“He’s planning a war, Nestor. He’s building up his army as we speak. This is going to take every Dragon and Dragoness in the entire Dragon Kingdom to take down. If we don’t begin building up our armies soon, then we may not stand a chance!” Cosmos added with a hint of fear in his voice
“A war? Do you have any idea when and where the war will take place?” asked Nestor, who was now fairly alarmed
“I believe it may take place roughly in about a two to three weeks from now at least and it’ll be held in the valley between the Peacekeepers and Magic Crafters realms. I know he’s also planning something else but his realm is protected by a barrier and my powers cannot penetrate any further” Explained Cosmos
“Right. Don’t worry about that. And two to three weeks is cutting it a bit fine but we could still manage to form a fairly resistant force if we work at it enough. Tell the other Dragon Worlds to start building their armies as soon as possible.” Nestor ordered
“That I will do. And Nestor there is something else you should know…” Cosmos replied
“What? What is it?” Nestor asked
“The barrier, Nestor. I honestly don’t think it’s going to hold back the evil much longer. It may diminish any time soon and when it diminishes, we’ll all be in danger, especially Cyra!” Cosmos warned with a hint of anxiety in his voice
“I-I understand…” Nestor said quietly, “But I’m afraid there’s nothing much more we can do. Right now all we can do is focus on what lies ahead and build our armies. I’ll also try and protect Cyra the best I can in the meantime.” Nestor added
“Understood. Best of luck” Cosmos finished off
“Likewise” Nestor replied with a grim tone to his voice
Spyro and Cyra were at Stone Hill again, practising their gliding.
“Yeah! That good, Cyra, now try a hover…that’s it.” Spyro called to Cyra as she landed after her hover.
“We’ll I’d say you were pretty much done with the training. I think you’ve gotten a bit stronger too.” Spyro added
“You think so?” Cyra asked
“Yeah. Definitely” Spyro replied, “All though, there’s just one more little thing…” Spyro started with a smile
“Hm? What’s that?” Cyra asked
“You…gotta catch me!” Spyro shouted quickly and started run.
“Wha-? Hey!” Cyra said quickly and started to chase Spyro, “Spyro…! What’re you--?” Cyra yelled after Spyro, whilst trying to catch up with him
“C’mon Cyra! Catch me and you’re done.”, Spyro yelled back and the two dragons went tearing across the grassy fields, laughing and cat-calling each other.
“C’mon, slowpoke! Whaddaya call that?”, Spyro laughed as he dodged one of Cyra’s pounces Blimey! She nearly got me that time. I gotta be more careful. Spyro thought to himself
“Grr…Ok! Right! Yer gonna get it, ye cheeky, wee…!” Cyra laughed as she recovered. Cyra then began to build up speed and Spyro hadn’t realised that Cyra climbed up onto the raised land.
Spyro then entered the tunnel; Spyro then found it was odd that he couldn’t hear the clicking of Cyra’s claws on the stone floor when he was in halfway and turned around to look.
“Cyra?” Spyro called as he looked back to find Cyra wasn’t behind him Where did she run off to? Spyro thought to himself.
“Boo!” shouted a voice from behind him, Spyro then wheeled around and there was Cyra, who had snuck in behind him
“Whoa!” Spyro yelled and Cyra then pounced right on Spyro, knocking him back onto the field.
Spyro and Cyra then rolled about the field, laughing until Cyra had landed on top of Spyro and managed to pin him down.
“Gotcha.” Cyra laughed
“Cyra!? How did you!? I mean you were right behind me!” Spyro started
“Ah-hah but I climbed up that upland there and snuck in through the other end,” Cyra laughed
“What? That’s cheating!” Spyro laughed
“Well, All you said was to catch you and I caught you, didn’t I?” Cyra said
She and Spyro laughed.
“So…um…you gonna let me up?” Spyro asked
“Hmmmm… Oh…I don’t know about that…” Cyra Teased, “You planned this, didn’t you?” Cyra asked with a smile
“Maaaaaybe…” Spyro replied, with a smile. Cyra giggled slightly and she bent down until their snouts were but an inch away.
“I love you” Cyra whispered
“I love you too” Spyro replied
Cyra then kissed Spyro on the lips. She pulled back and smiled warmly at each other, rubbed they’re snouts and kissed again…
About half an hour later, Spyro and Cyra were both laying on their backs, bathing in the warm sun, cuddling to each other.
“Spyro! Cyra!” a voice called from the other field
“Spyro…”Cyra said as she raised her head off Spyro’s shoulder but Spyro was still sleeping, “Spyro! Wake up!” Cyra said louder, as she nudged Spyro awake
“Huh? What’s up?” Spyro yawned, as he opened an eye
“I think someone’s looking for us.” Cyra replied
“Who?” Spyro asked
“Dunno. I’m just gonna go check” Cyra said as she got up
“K. You do that.” Spyro replied
Cyra then walked through the tunnel and took a peek and saw Nestor looking around, with a worried look on his face. Cyra then ran back to Spyro.
“Spyro!” Cyra yelled as she nudged him awake again
“What…?” Spyro groaned
“It’s Nestor, Spyro! He’s looking for us now.” Cyra told Spyro
“What does he want now?” Spyro asked
“I dunno, but I don’t like it. He looks really worried for some reason. What if it’s about Raku?” Cyra suggest with a hint of anxiety in her voice.
“Raku? Ok. Let’s go see what he wants,” Spyro said as he got up and stretched him wings and limbs.
Spyro and Cyra the walked through the tunnel, into the other field and met up with Nestor
“Spyro! Cyra! There you are. How has the training been going?” Nestor asked
“She’s been doing really well. In fact, we just finished just now” Spyro replied
“Good. Because we have less time left as we thought…” Nestor tailed off, looking very anxious indeed
“Huh? How come?” Cyra asked, startled by Nestor’s anxiety
“Raku…” Nestor started
“Raku? What about him?” Spyro asked
“He’s planning a war…” Nestor replied
“A war!?” Cyra yelled, “When?” Cyra asked, with a hint of fear in her voice
“About two to three weeks from now. So from now until then it’ll be nothing but training and building up the army.”
“D-do we have to fight too!?” Cyra asked
“Yes…I’m afraid so. We need every strong Dragon and Dragoness we can muster if we are to even think of pulling through this war… I’m sorry you have to see such difficult times but that’s how life goes sometimes I’m afraid… So I will expect you in the Artisan Home at eight O’ clock, tomorrow morning. And Cyra… I want you to be especially careful from now on and I never want you to leave either of us unless you are told to do so. You got that?” Nestor finished off
“Y-yes…” Cyra replied quietly
Nestor then went through one of the other tunnels and returned back to the home world. Spyro and Cyra were left to let it sink in that they were about to enter a full-blown war.
“Spyro…I’m scared…” Cyra spoke in a small voice as the situation began to sink in
“Yeah, me too” Spyro replied with a hint of anxiety and the two dragons hold each other in their arms, wallowing in their worry about the upcoming battle.
Meanwhile, Raku was sitting on his rotten, termite-bitten throne, pondering, with his clawed, grimy hand, outstretched over a large crystal ball, with dark, evil energy residing within it.
“That’s it…just like I foreseen…the barrier diminishes and she wakes…” Raku hissed as he searched
Within the black mass if the crystal ball, little, bright balls of energy that represents peoples minds appear on the surface until he hit on one little orb shining brighter than the others just under his index.
“There you are…” Raku hissed as an evil smile appeared on his rotten face…
