Spyro & Cynder: Guide you home

Part 4 - You're all I need

Spyro and Cynder went to the central palace. If there was a place where they could find their friends, it could be there. When they landed on a terrace, they got a good view of the great hall inside. Both dragons entered and saw that some moles and dragons were walking inside. But for Spyro and Cynder, all that mattered was the three dragons at the background. There they were, the Guardians. Volteer, Cyril and Terrador. Cynder and Spyro ran very fast to join them. And when the Guardians saw them, they were completely amazed.

"Spyro? Cynder?" Asked Terrador. He was then tackled by both dragons. Everyone looked surprised by this. Moles and dragons stopped what they were doing and looked at the scene right in front of them. Spyro and Cynder were hugging Terrador with enthusiasm

"For the ancestors!" Shouted Volteer. "You both are alive!"

"How did you manage to survive that?" Asked Cyril.

"It's a long story." Said Spyro. "But I'm really happy to see you all again. I'm glad you're all ok."

"Of course we're alright." Said Terrador while standing up. Spyro couldn't believe it, his mentors were alive. "We hoped you would come back, but some others thought that you didn't survive.

"What about Ignitus?" Asked Volteer, looking outside the window, maybe hoping to see Ignitus coming inside too. Spyro and Cynder drop their heads, clearly hurt by the memory of the sacrifice Ignitus did for them. It's because of this that the Guardians understood their silence.

"I'm so sorry, Spyro, Cynder." Said softly Terrador. "He was a great dragon."

"One of the most powerful that history has ever seen!" Completed Volteer.

"A very wise and gentle friend." Said Cyril, with sadness. "He was one of the greatest in the dragon's realm."

"He was the best..." Whispered Spyro. Cynder put her wing around his body, trying to give him comfort. The Guardians kept in silence for some time, honoring his fallen friend.

"Spyro?" Called a voice from the entrance of the big hall. When Spyro looked around, he saw Hunter, followed by some other cheetahs. Hunter was clearly surprised too, but he wasn't the one that called Spyro. Right above his head was Sparx, floating with an amazed face.

"Sparx!" Shouted Spyro, while he started to run to his little brother. Sparx didn't lose any second and went to meet Spyro too.

"You idiot! Do you know how worried I was about you?" Claimed Sparx while some little tears came out of his eyes.

"Are you crying, Sparx?"

"No, of course not. Some dust entered my eye. You know me, I'm tough!" Spyro laughed and grabbed Sparx, hugging him with emotion.

"I'm so glad to see you again, brother."

"Me too, it would be very boring being with all these boring dragons without you." Cynder approached and saw Sparx with kindness. "You!"

"Hi, Sparx." Said Cynder.

"So, you did take care of Spyro, huh?"

"Of course I did."

"Well, then I guess you're not as bad as I thought. I'll allow you to stay, for now."

Spyro and Cynder laughed with Sparx words. Spyro was happy to see that his little brother was alright. It would have been very difficult to him lose his little troublesome brother.

After this reunion, Hunter came closer. "It's good to see you're ok my friends."

"Thanks, Hunter." Said Spyro. "I'm glad to see that you and your people are ok too."
