#5 of The Legend of Spyro - Sins of the Past


Chapter 5 - Trip to hideout

"And so he did it again. Leaving me hang around with evil doomgirl."

Spyro Searched surrounding mushroom forest trying to find safe place for Cynder to rest. A cave or otherwise isolated place would do nicely he thought. After few hours he found tight rock formation with small walkway to middle and in middle where where single medium-sized mushroom which looked like nice cover if it happens to rain. Ground where covered with dried moss. Wind couldn't come into this small nest like formation. Thinking Spyro has wound what he have searched for he headed back to Cynder. An hour later he wound Cynder and Sparx arguing on something.

"...And you should learn to keep your mouth shut!" Cynder said With aggressive tone to Sparx.

"Hah! And you should keep your hands off from Spyro! He's MY brother and it is MY responsibility to look after him." Sparx argued

"And what makes you think you can choose what is best for Spyro? Argh! What you have against me being around Spyro anyway?"

"Cause you're evil, bad black she-dragon!"

"Oh please! Stop reminding me from my past!" Cynder shouted almost in rage. Spyro decided they had their argue ran long enough and interrupted them.

"Hey! I think I found ideal place to you to rest Cynder" Spyro said, pretending he haven't heard Cynder and Sparx arguing on eachother. Cynder let herself to calm down before turning her head towards Spyro. Sparx crossed his hands and turned his back on Cynder.

"That's great Spyro. How far it is?" Cynder asked trying to be calm as possible.

"Not too far but far enough that I need to carry you over there somehow"

"Well I think I can walk on three legs if you let me lean on you."

"Too risky. Just jump on my back" Spyro said and walked front of Cynder, turned around and laid himself on ground so Cynder could climb on him. Cynder then crawled slowly on Spyro's back carefully so she would not hurt her leg.

"Heheh... quickly now, you tickle me."

"Oh really? From here?" Cynder smiled and tickled Spyro more from under his foreleg.

"HeheHAHaHA! Sto-- HahaHA! Stop it! HAHahaHA! I-- heha! I can't breath! HAHAHaha!" Spyro tried to stay still but all the tickling made him crawl a bit anyway.

"And now you're trying to crawl all the way? Not promising Spyro, not promising at all." Cynder said with big smile and continued his torture.

"HahaHAHA! Quit it! HAHAHahaHa! Cyn-- Hehehaha! Cynder please! HahaHAHaha!"

"Oh brother..." Sparx slapped his head and turned around. "Ok that enough. Are you trying to make Spyro die on laugh, doomgirl?" Sparx said sill a bit angered.

"Spoilsports..." Cynder said and stopped.

"ehee... huhh..." Spyro tried catch his breath. Cynder crawled on Spyro's back and laid her head on Spyro's head, neck going from between his horns and 'locking' head on place with her sheet horns.

"Ok Spyro. I'm ready, lets go." Cynder said.

"Give me a moment" Spyro got up slowly with Cynder on his back. "Do you sit well up there Cynder?"

"Yes, I'm fine" Cynder said, trying to relax.

Spyro started walk carefully towards hideout he has been found but soon Spyro got used to carry Cynder on back and now he walked almost normally thought slow, avoiding any sudden moves. To spent time Sparx started to play Guess the riddle games with Spyro. Cynder got into game soon aswell.

"So try to figure this out. 'I am little, but we are many. We fill the dark so you could see. We are far away, yet you see us always when time is dark. What are we?" Sparx tried to make riddle out from his mind. Spyro looked puzzled but Cynder got smile on her face.

"I think I know this. dragonfly!" Cynder said out loud.

"A dragonfly? *IIIII!* Wrong answer! Why I should put up a riddle about myself?" Sparx said.

"Well you illuminate space around you, especially when it's dark and you're small." Cynder explained.

"Sorry, but no." Sparx said. Cynder started to think again.

"...We are many. We fill the dark..." Spyro repeated to himself and turned his head up, raising Cynder's head as well. They both looked to sky and noticed lone white dot on sky and they both said at the same time:

"A star!"

"Bingo! Now we have to figure which one of you two said it first." Sparx stated.

"Umm... how about this, I and Cynder make part of riddle and you try to solve it?" Spyro said

"Eh... Well do what you like. There is absolutely no rid I can't solve" Sparx said overconfident.

"You start" Cynder said to Spyro and whispered something.

"Hehe... Ok... I am weed but I eat." Spyro said

"I rule the swamp and insects fear me" Cynder continued. Sparx thought hard to figure this one out.

"Flytrap? No? Quicksand? Pond? Beehive?" Spyro kept guessing out loud.

"No and no. You should think instead shooting random guesses out from your mouth Sparx" Spyro said smiling. after few minutes Sparx gave up

"Ok... I give up. What is it?" Sparx said head down.

"Frogweed!" Cynder said "And far I have learned you're quite big fan of them too"

"Frogweed! Urngh... Spyro, have you been telling some secrets about me lately to this doomgirl? You know I hate those thing!" Sparx said becoming anxious.

"Well you never said I shouldn't tell her."

"You don't need to be told not to tell!" Sparx yelled at Spyro with hurt tone and flew off. Spyro stopped and looked after Sparx as he flew behind mushrooms and couldn't see him anylonger.

"Ouch, Spyro. You really made him mad this time." Cynder Said quietly.

"Yeah..." Spyro said with sad tone and sighed.

"Don't worry too much. He'll come back in no time." Cynder said trying to sheer Spyro up. Spyro turned his head back on path to hideout and continued to walk.

Sparx continued his flight further away from Spyro head turned red from anger.

"How could he just go and tell OUR past to that... that evil black-hearted demon of ultimate doom! ARGH! But on only that but he just decided to tell that disgusting event to her as well!" Sparx continued to speaking to himself but where interrupted to voices which came just from another side of swamp covered by fog. Sparx looked over swamp and barely saw shadows of two figures thought fog walking same direction as he went. Sparx heard them talking a bit loud.

"Arrh... How long we do have to scout this forsaken swamp? Here is absolutely nothing." first shadow said with groan.

"Shut your mouth! We scout this area until I say otherwise!" Second shadow groaned loudly to another.

"And I'm feeling tired and hungry!"

"And soon you will feel club on your head if you wont shut your mouth at once!" Other figure said with anger.

"Grrr. Our boss is outa his mind! There is no way that pestering creature would have come here."

"THATS IT!" Sparx saw shadow to turn around and hit another one with large club on head with loud pang. Other shadow fell on ground and scratched its head

"Ouch! That hurt!"

"And it will alot more if you wont stop pestering me! We have to capture this creature! Come on!" Standing figure turned around again and started walking. other figure got up fast and followed first one.

"Oh brother." Sparx said pale and eyes wide. He turned around and flew fast as he could back to Spyro.

"Spyyyyyyyroooooooooo!!" Sparx yelled behind Spyro and Cynder. Spyro halted and turned his head carefully. Sparx flew front of Spyro's head and breathed heavily

"Sparx? Are you allright?" Spyro asked confused about Sparx sudden change of mood.

"Well I think he just found frogweeds' nest." Cynder grinned

"Apaa Abaa... We... We're in danger! Bad danger! Huge danger!" Sparx tried to tell.

"What you mean Sparx? Calm down." Spyro said getting worried

"I-I-I saw two shadows behind swamp thought fog! They're after us!"

"Shadows? What shadows?" Cynder asked raising her head but her horns just got stumped against Spyro's horns.

"After us? Are you sure Sparx?" Spyro continued.

"YES IM POSITIVE!" Sparx yelled out loud,

"Shhh!" Both Spyro and Cynder sizzled.

"We need to get somewhere to cover." Spyro said briefly and walked out from pathway and continued their travel between dense mushroom forest. After a while they heard loud yelling from distance which stopped suddenly. Group stopped and got down.

"What that was?" Spark Whispered. Getting cover from behind Spyro.
