#2 of Spyro: Light shall triumph


This is my second story of the series! Our heroes witnessed a strange event with the explosion in the sky and the one near the temple with the downed shuttle. Inside they found my character Galinoth who was badly injured. This story is continuing from the end of the last story. In no way shape or form do I own spyro or any of the affiliated characters. Like I said in my last story I will be making things up and taking things off shows I watch!

Enjoy!

Chapter 2: Darkness descends

With Galinoth falling unconscious, they decided to get him back to the temple quickly. After a few minutes they reached the temple doors where the other guardians were gathered.

"What did you find?" asked Cyril a bit impatiently

"We found what looked like a flying machine." Replied Volteer

"We also found something else as well." Cynder said.

"What else did you find?" Ignitus asked quizzically.

Volteer turned round to show them. The other guardians gasped at what they saw.

"What is that?" Terrador asked. The shock at what he saw was clear in his voice.

"His name is Galinoth of the Guardians......" spyro was cut off in mid-sentence by Ignitus.

"Did you say Guardians?" Ignitus asked. Spyro thought he could detect what felt like recognition.

"Yes, why is that important?" spyro asked. He was very confused at this sudden question.

"The Guardians are an ancient race of dragons that came to this world long ago."

"Legend states that they may be our ancestors" Ignitus replied. And with that last word Galinoth awoke once more.

"There is no data that our people visited this world." Galinoth said. Still weakened by his ordeal Spyro and Cynder were amazed that he is conscious now. As if sensing there amazement Galinoth turned towards them and smiled.

"My people are very resilient to injury" he told them.

"Is that how you survived the crash?" Cynder asked. Wonder was now evident in her voice.

"To be honest with you, I shouldn't have survived." Galinoth replied.

"Why not?" Spyro asked.

"The speeds that the shuttle was going, I should've died on impact" Galinoth said with confusion in his voice.

"Well you should be thankful that you lived" Cyril said with scorn in his voice.

"Don't you think I am?" Galinoth replied. There was anger in his voice from the moment Cyril finished speaking.

Taken a back by this the others backed off fearing that the pair would come to blows.

"What happened to you any way" Terrador asked. Hoping to cut the tension, he decided to try and distract Galinoth.

"I was stationed aboard the Righteous fury when we received a distress call from this sector." "Our directives say that we are to respond to all and any distress calls we receive so we did. But that was a mistake. As soon as we entered the system we were attacked. The righteous fury was destroyed and so were the attacking vessels" He replied.

"So is that what the giant fireball was in the sky earlier?" asked Cynder.

"Yes." There was evident sadness in his voice while answering cinders question.

"How many people were aboard the fury when it was destroyed?" Terrador asked.

"After the evacuation at least 512 men and women." This answer made Galinoth feel even worse. And it was evident how he felt.

"I'm so sorry for what happened to you." Ignitus said. Everybody felt sympathy for the guardian now.

"I need to rest, is there anywhere where I can lay down?" he asked

"Of course, Spyro and Cynder have a spare room near them which you can use anytime you want" replied Volteer.

"Thank you for your kindness, all of you" replied Galinoth.

And with that note Spyro and Cynder took him to the room. They were amazed that he could walk with the injuries that he suffered.

"Thank you both." Galinoth said with what sounded like respect entering his voice.

"Your welcome." They both replied with smiles on there faces.

They entered there rooms and went to sleep. But Galinoth was having trouble sleeping because he could sense a great malice trying to claw at him. It was making him feel terrible. This evil influence was trying to get control of him. As it was trying to, it spoke to him.

"Join my side Galinoth and together we could rule this world." The ominous voice was saying.

"First tell me your name?" he requested.

"I'm the Darkmaster, and im inviting you to join me." The voice replied.

So its name was the Darkmaster. Well if he wants to control me fine by him but he never will. This thought woke him immediately. He was breathing heavily and was aching all over. Could that have been a dream he thought. No it wasn't a dream. This Darkmaster was trying to control me.

So he decided to go and tell the guardians what had happened. But when he approached the central chamber he knew something was wrong. He could see that the guardians were bound and couldn't move.

"Where is he?" A grating voice bellowed.

"I'll never tell you, you scum." Replied Volteer

The creature interrogating them gave Volteer a nasty kick to the side of the head.

"RRRRRRRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRR!!!" the sound terrified everyone even the guardians. They were looking around for the source of the sound when Galinoth leapt out and started attacking the vile creatures.

"THE AVATAR OF DEATH HAS FALLEN UPON THY CRETINS!" he bellowed

He was striking left and right, killing as his strikes landed upon creature after creature until there was only the big one left. Galinoth could see fear in his eyes. Good he thought. Let him fear me. The creature turned tail and ran for its life. But Galinoth had a surprise for it. An orb of flame was appearing in one of his hands. He hurled it at the creature and struck him in the back, killing him.

The Guardians were both shocked and awe struck at what had just occurred. A minute later Spyro and Cynder came running in.

"What's happening?" Spyro asked loudly.

He then looked at Cynder who was staring at something. He followed Cynders gaze until he found what she was looking at. A scene of absolute carnage. Bodies of creatures were everywhere and Galinoth was in the middle. His talons were covered in blood.

"What happened in here?" Spyro and Cynder asked simultaneously.

"While you three were sleeping we were attacked by the Darkmasters forces." Cyril replied

"It appears they were looking for something" followed Ignitus.

"They were looking for me" Galinoth said.

"What?" Cynder asked.

"While I was sleeping the Darkmaster tried to influence me." He replied. Adrenaline was still pumping through his body from the fight so he seemed energetic.

"Then its no Coincidence that he attacked us then?" Volteer asked.

"No." Galinoth said flatly.

"Your skills and strength are both impressive and frightening, but we still thank you for saving us." Said Terrador

"I always save friends and allies." He replied.

And with that final sentence this story comes to an end.
