Spyro: Dark Descendants pt.28

They spent the day in the village accepting many welcome backs and dragons surrounding Spyro, wanting to see him and be seen. Many single dragonesses attempted to attract him but he only looked away and Cynder continued to stay close to him, quickly driving them away. As they were eating lunch Flame noticed Gravel walking close by. "Hey Gravel, Spyros back!" he shouted.
"So I've heard, welcome back." He replied.
"Thanks." Spyro said with a stern look on his face. He saw that he tried to win over Cynder and still didn't trust him.
"I have someone to introduce to you as well." Gravel said as he stepped to the side to show a green dragoness standing behind him. "Everyone, this is Maka, my mate."
Everyone's jaws dropped when they heard that. They were surprised that he found someone that actually looked like a nice dragoness. "Congratulations Gravel." Icis finally said.
"Yeah, she looks great." Flame said with a quick slap on the head from Ember.
Maka blushed as she said "thank you. You were right Gravel, they are nice."
"Would I ever wrong you?" he asked with a kiss.
"So when is the wedding?" Ember asked.
"We were hoping to have it soon, maybe in two days." Gravel answered.
"Then we shall get ready immediately." Icis said as she got up and walked into town to prepare two weddings, one for Gravel and Maka and one for Spyro and Cynder.
While the villagers began their preparations Spyro and Cynder snuck off into the forest for some privacy. "Everyone sure is excited to see you." Cynder told him.
"Yeah, so why didn't you want me to tell them the real reason why they sent me back?" Spyro asked.
"Do you really want to cause panic? If it's only my evil form then I think we can take her by ourselves, so there is not need to get everyone else riled up on something that can't be handled." She answered.
"Good point, the sooner this is over the better."
They found a clearing a laid done next to each other. "I am so happy that you are back." Cynder sighed as she rested her head on his neck.
"Me two, I was upset that all I could do up there was watch over you and not be there with you." He said.
"What was it like being in the afterlife?"
"It was amazing! Green fields, beautiful sun and not a worry in the world."
"Sounds like a wonderful place." Cynder said.
"Well, your parents are enjoying it."
Cynder shot her head up. "You saw my parents?!" she asked.
"Yes, they said that they are happy for you and love you very much."
Tears began to form in Cynder's eyes. "If it wasn't for me they wouldn't be there." She said sadly.
"No, it wasn't your doing, it was all Demetrius' doing. He was the one that killed them, not you." Spyro told her.
She looked him in the eyes and said "Thank you Spyro, I am just still recovering from nine terrible years without you."
"But now I am here with you forever, and I promise you nothing is ever going to change that." He said.
They kissed again but was cut short when Cynder got up and said "Follow me."
"Where too?" Spyro asked.
"It's a surprise." She said with a smile on her face.

"The troops are ready for attack mistress." Ciqala informed Evil Cynder. "We are awaiting your orders."
"Have them wait out of sight of the city, I have a plan to infiltrate the city." She replied.
"That being?" Ciqala asked.
"… Just wait for my signal, when you see it attack the city." She ordered as she flew towards Warfang.

"Volteer, have the new guardians arrived yet?" Terrador asked.
"No they have not, this is terrible, terrifying, petrifying, terrorizing…" the jittery dragon responded.
"Volteer I think we get the point. The new fire and earth guardians have not returned yet but there is no need to worry." Cyril interrupted.
"Of course, my son and Gravel are probably just saying their goodbyes." Infernes said.
"Hey! Hey, guardians!" came a voice from a light that flew in quickly.
"Sparx, what is wrong?" asked Terrador.
"There's a black dragon at the gates, it's Cynder!"
