Skylanders Academy: The Fall of the Night

Chapter Two

Trigger Warning: blood!

The lights blacked out of the shop. A shadow moved into the shop as it's keeper turn around. He felt cold burning claws on his back. It was a Dragon. He breathed out as a sharp pain shocked down his back. Blood came, and the strange dragon walked away.

The strange dragon was Dark Draga who was trying to lure the Skylanders. Chaos and evil was the way of her mind. Something that she liked. Something she loved. She jumped onto a light post.

"Where are these so-called Skylanders," she hissed. "Have they...FORGOTTEN ABOUT ME!"

She let out a deep breath and shot blue fire up at the sky. "Well then," she huffed "I'll make sure that no one will forget me again!"

(Drobot's PoV)

I paced in my dorm room, eyeballing Dark Spyro. He sat on my bed, looking at me. 

"So Dark Spyro--" I started. 

"Call me Dark" Dark Spyro interjected me.

"Same thing" I snapped. "Um...."

My mind was just trying to find out why Dark wasn't being evil. I mean, look if you were me, I'm sure that you may understand me on this. 

"So...um...why did you saved me?!" I breathed out. 

"Um...um...it was the only right thing to do?" Dark Spyro said, grinning. 

I nodded suspiciously. "Oh yeah right." I said. "Is this a trick?"

Dark Spyro just stared at me. "No. No it is not a trick" he said. "I'm just trying to get some...." he paused, "trust back because of Strykore. Ok?"

I stared at him. "Yeah sure sure. Still probably going to tell Team Spyro on this" I said, going for the door.

"No!" He shouted, leaping off my bed and blocked the door. "Please!" He gave me the Please face.

Should I, I thought. 

"Ok fine" I hissed. "But if this is a trick...I'm telling"

Dark Spyro nodded. "So um...I need a place to stay." He said. "Got a extra bedroom?"

I sighed and showed him the room.

"Don't destroy the bedroom" I snapped. 

Dark Spyro nodded and I left. I sighed and thought of this. I couldn't believe that literally I let in Dark Spyro as my dorm mate! 

Years ago...

I walked the halls side-by-side with Blade. I remember how I couldn't talk, how Eon had tested me on math once a week. Oh boy I loved that. I grinned. 

"You're a good dragon, Drobot" Blade said. 

I forgot to mention that Blade is two years older than me. I bounced as we gotten to the Great Hall. In the Great Hall, I saw Eon with another dragon. He saw on Eon's desk. He had the same tail shape like mine. I pointed at the newcomer. 

"That's Spyro, Drobot" Nlade said to me, "Eon found his egg like yours"

My eyes widened in surprise. I dropped my jaw.

"Ah" Eon said, turning around, "Just in time. Blade, you may leave us"

Blade nodded and left. The purple dragon stared at me. I stared back, grinning at him.

"Time for the Elemental testing" Eon said.

The dragon blinked. "What's that, Master Eon?" He asked.

I nodded at his question. I really wished I could talk so badly, I thought.

"What's up with Drobot?" Spyro said. 

"Spyro," Eon said, "Drobot can't talk."

Spyro looked at me in confusion. He stared at me. 

"How?" He asked 

Eon sighed, "he was born mute"

Spyro turned his head to me and drooped his wings, as if he felt bad about me. 

"That'd be hard," he said slowly.

I nodded.

"Ok ok" Eon said, getting our attention back to this test. "Lets begin with Spyro"

The test was so much work. It's basically a  group of objects on the ground like ash, a Sky-phone, a wand, a leaf and more. All you needed to do was just connect with the world and feel the aura of a item. 

Spyro displayed that he could copy fire with his Magic Elemental power. Now for me...

"You're up Drobot," Eon said. 

I nodded. Ok. Just--

Suddenly the phone changed in front of my eyes and I felt it's aura like calling me. I backed up, as it shot into my throat. Pain shot in my throat as I fell back. Suddenly it stopped. 

"Dude, you're okay?" I heard Spyro asked me.

"Yes?" My mouth moved. I blinked. "I can......talk now?!"

Eon looked at me. "It would seem like you are one with the Tech Elemental power" he said. 

I stared, bewildered. My voice was very robust and robotic but male. "I can talk now..." I choked out in awe.

"Um...I am gonna leav--" Spyro started.

"I CAN TALK! I CAN TALK!" I shouted. I suddenly began screaming and laughing happily for a hour without stopping.

"Ok ok good for you," Blade came in, "so...dinner?"

Now...

I stared at the walls. This was the day that I would have to pass this paper test before the Sky Games so no stress!(ok I did have stresss). After 12 minutes of me finishing up my paper, I turned it in. 

"Whoa" I heard Cynder. "He's fast!"

I turned around and grinned. "Yep, all thanks to my brain," I said before flying off. I'd actually like studied the night before. I got some peanut butter and cheese sandwich for Dark Spyro. I don't know how no one suspected that I had some secret. 

"Oh hey Darkie," I said, walking into the guest room. "Got some food,"

Dark Spyro nodded and took the sandwich from my talons. "Hmm, I love peanut butter and cheese!" He said. "Thanks!"

"Um...um..." I said, "You're totally welcome!" 

I paced to my bed, looking at him and flicked my tail. I laid down and closed my eyes.

What I dreamt next was scary and shocking and terrifying and horrific.
