(3 years later...)

"Dad! dad!" said the little red dragon, shaking me to wake me up, "Hey! Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Please, you promised!"

"I think your son is awake ..." my partner told me, almost asleep, curled up around a light blue egg.

"At dawn, it's your son" I replied, just as tired.

"Come on, you promised!" the little one continued insisting.

"Ok, Drago. I'm getting up" I said, struggling to get up. It was still dawn.

(5 minutes later ...) (On the terrace of the temple ...)

"Woahhhh ... is all this really ruled by dragons?" Drago said, looking at the sunrise view.

"We do not rule it, it is our duty to protect it" I replied.

"But what about?"

"Long ago, there was a war against an enemy named Malefor, others called him 'the dark master'. Spyro and Cynder, they saved the world before Malefor destroyed it, thus creating a new era. That was before you were born."

"Then, we must protect the world from evildoers like Malefor ..."

"That's right, your mother and I became guardians to protect the land from dragons, it is our duty."

"Do you think I can be a guardian one day?"

I looked at my little boy, and answered honestly:

"There was a time when I had the same doubt. But I know that you, with effort, will be a great guardian."

He was glad and then he hugged me.

"Thanks for being the best, dad."

In the same way, I returned the hug. When we finished, Drago yawned.

"Sorry, I think I'm still sleepy"

"I'm glad to see that the family is fine despite waking up very early" said Edel, it seems like she was watching us from a while at the door, "Okay, it's time for breakfast. While you were watching, I caught a deer. Come on, come on. to breakfast. "

"Come on Drago" I said. Then we all go back inside.

(For his part ...)

Sunlight shone through the windows of Spyro and Cynder's house in Warfang. The first to wake up was his daughter, Nina.

"Aaaamm! Good morning, Dad" said Nina, getting up next to her father.

"Good morning, Nina" Spyro replied, looking at her daughter: she was very similar in color to Cynder, her horns were like Spyro's, but the color of her mother. Her eyes were purple, like her father's.

"Good morning to you two" said Cynder, who had also woken up.

"Good morning darling" said Spyro.

"Well, how about a good breakfast?" Cynder said.

"How good!" Nina said, "I like your food, mom"

"You better eat well, today is your first day of temple training" said Spyro, heading to the table with his partner and daughter.

"I'm ... a little nervous, who will be the tutor?"

"A friend of ours" said Cynder, putting a large cooked venison for each one "the keeper of the fire, his name is Jhonny"

"You won't remember" said Spyro, "But you were born in the temple and he was present there"

"Really?" Nina asked, "Wow ..."

"You must not be nervous, Nina" said Cynder, "two other students will go today: your cousin and, if I am not mistaken, there will also be Jhonny's son, Drago"

"Does the guardian have a son with the same age of Ash and me?"

"Yes, he was also born in the year of the dragon and you will surely become good friends"

(Meanwhile ...) (In the temple)

"The hunt was good, it is delicious" I told my family while we ate.

"Well, you cook very well too" said Edel.

"Yum! Umm, what a nice mom. By the way, when will my baby brother be born?" Drago asked, leaving what were already just bones.

"The allotted time has passed; it could be soon."

A flapping of wings was heard approaching. A green dragon and a yellow dragon passed through the window and within minutes they had entered the door.

"Master Ray! Master Thorr!" Drago yelled, running towards the newcomers.

"Hello Drago, I see that you continue to grow everyday" said Thorr.

"In hyperactive, it seems so" said Ray, then turned to speak to us, "I see you guys have a difficult time being parents and guardians at the same time."

"If I'm not mistaken, being guardians has the duty to protect and educate the young generation" said Edel, "This, added to the task of being parents, makes it a great responsibility ... And speaking of parents, my father said that would come to visit us. "

"Really? Is Grandpa Cyril coming?" Drago said, he seemed excited by the news.

"Yes, he will be visiting for a few days" I replied, "I think it's getting late, and in a few minutes the little ones will arrive. Come on Drago, it's time for you to meet your teammates"
