Heartfire

Final day of training

It was the final day of training for Spike before Heartfire. He has gotten stronger and become wiser now. He was taught to not let his emotions take control of his actions that lead to a giant hole in the mountain.

Spike began to ask questions about who trained him to use the Elements that he is able to control. His answer was the four Guardians of the dragon council where his father was on.

The four guardians were named.

Ignitus, Guardian Of Fire.

Cyril, Guardian Of Ice.

Volteer, Guardian Of Electricity.

Terrador, Guardian Of Earth.

But as always Spyro Just said enough about him and focused on training. Sparx has left later to visit his parents grave. Before he left he nudged Spikes leg slightly with a 'get her tiger' look. obviously meaning Spike asking Ember to be his mate.

After the Two Dragons flew to the Everfree forest Spyro told Spike to meet him by the cave where that big green dragon was when Spike left Twilight when he was jealous of an Owl.

"Oh boy, I was stupid at that time". Spike smiles remembering the time. The forest was grey and foggy. Spike was having a hard time seeing through it as it was almost impossible.

Sticks were snapping all around him like there was something stalking him. Spinning around to check if he was being followed but to no avail.

As he turns around he sees two white eyes glow brightly in the fog. They were just there staring moving no movement at all.

With one step Spike saw the eyes disappear into thin air like ash. Maybe it was just his head playing tricks on him.

Suddenly a body was thrown at Spike as he was tackled by another dragon and thrown to the ground.

His claws extended and he began to swipe like a ferocious creature. Left and right his claws attacked but did not hit his target.

He felt a tail sweep him off his feet as he fell into the dirt. He felt sharp claws in his throat right before he opened his mouth full of fire.

The fog reveals the dragon to be none other than his teacher Spyro.

"What was that for?" Spike asks as Spyros claws leave his throat. Spyro turns around with a bit of disappointment.

"That lesson was about awareness. I gave you multiple hints that I was there, yet you ignored them like they were nothing" Spyro tells Spike while he circles him.

"What if you were actually were being hunted? You have to keep your senses sharp and aware" Spike looked down as he could feel the disappointed glare burn his soul.

Spyro took a breath to calm down and put a claw on his shoulder. "Look I'm sorry for being hard on you, it's just I believe you are ready for Heartfire but there are other dangers outside of Equestria".

"We are gonna be in the dragon lands for Heartfire, not some jungle" Spike arguably said as he looked at Spyro.

"Yes I know but still it never hurts to learn more, least that's what Cynder told me". Spyro nodded his head to head to the cave where the dragon is.

"Wasn't she the Terror of the Sky's?". Spike asked since he's been hearing a lot about this Cynder. But even after all, he heard there's a part of spike that doesn't fully trust her.

"Yes" was the only thing Spyro said while walking as his claws dug into the muddy ground. He always hated that name. It was just a title of what she was, not who she is now.
