Several years have passed and things in Warfang were starting to look brighter. People weren't killing each other, and crime was at an all time low. Inside the castle, Spyro was waking up from his slumber and was about to leave when he remembered that he had fallen asleep in Cynder's arms, causing him to blush. Though they had together for years now, Spyro still couldn't help but feel nervous whenever he was close to Cynder, though he could never tell why. Still, today was a big day, and he knew they had to get up soon. He nuzzled her neck gently and she began to stir. "Good morning Spyro." Cynder whispered tiredly before letting out a yawn.

"Good morning to you Cynder. Today's the day remember? The day we attempt to live among other people again." She nodded as she finished her yawn.

"Yeah I remember. You're not nervous, are you?" Spyro shook his head. "No, I don't think so. Not so long as I don't have one of Warfang's finest Solder's standing beside me." Spyro smiled back at her as they got up from their bed, laughing a little to himself as he thought back to everything that had happened since they got back to Warfang. Since Cynder knew she would never leave his side again, she requested from Flame if she could be trained in combat and become a member of the city guard. Flame gladly accepted her request, and though it was very difficult to train her within the caste, they had the help of Terrador to train her, who at this point was given back his position as a combat trainer in the military. It was hard on both of them at first, as Terrador was still getting over his anger towards her, which made some of the early training sessions end with her getting severely hurt sometimes, but the more they trained, the more he grew to forgive her as well as himself.

Even Spyro learned a thing or two in his time at the castle, though he never learned how to control his elemental powers, despite Cynder's prodding to let his father teach him. Spyro made a promise to never learn how to use his powers, as to help calm the people of Warfang. Instead, in his time in the castle he had learned a lot of things about politics, and though he could never become King of Warfang or anything like that, he was often found in the King Flame's court, discussing important matters, and how to best deal with them. Flame was still king, his short tempter made most meetings harder than they needed to be, but thankfully with Spyro by his side and his newly appointed adviser Hunter, they managed to not only help calm people down, but also reestablish broken trade routes, made new allies with neighboring cities and countries, as well as several more minor things around the city.

As Spyro and Cynder got ready for the day, there was a tiny knock on their door. "That would be Sparx." Cynder let out a sigh, rather hoping that Terrador would have given them the day off. Sparx was given a job as a messenger around the castle due to him being able to fly faster than anyone could run around the hallways, and while it wasn't a very important job, it was by far the highest position a dragonfly has ever had, which gave him a lot of respect, even among the dragon's the roamed the palace.

Spyro nuzzled her once last time before she opened the door. Sure, enough Sparx was floating just outside, waiting for Cynder to come out. "You're late you know. Terrador isn't very happy."

"Is he ever happy?" She asked as she left the room. "I'll see around Spyro. Let me know were we are living once they are done kicking us out of here." She joked before running down the halls, hoping that Terrador wouldn't invoke to much of his wrath upon her for being late.

Spyro watched her run, smiling happily before she turned the corner and out of his site. He then turned his attention to Sparx. "Thank you Sparx. You're free to go now."

"Wait, wait, wait. I've got one more thing for you." Sparx said before floating down to the floor and picked up a letter he was carrying with him. "This is from Flame. It's the location of your new home."

"Thanks, Sparx." Spyro said as he took the letter.

"You sure seem happy to be leaving this place. I can't imagine why though; this place is great. Free food, comfortable beds. Cynder seemed like she was going to miss this place."

Spyro chuckled and left the room, wanting to check out where he and Cynder were going to live. "I'm going to miss this place, trust me I will, but I feel like this is the start of a new chapter for me and Cynder. I guess that's why I'm not as sad to be leaving."

"Hmm, I still don't really get it, but hey you've always been a weird one. Well anyways, I've got to get going now. The day's still young and there are a lot of messages to deliver." Sparx said before zipping past him, leaving Spyro alone again. He walked the hallways of the castle in silence, thinking back to all the good times he had there up to this point. He thought back to the trouble he and Cynder got in the first few months they were there. Though the guards weren't to happy catching them, Flame gave them a pass seeing as it was natural for maturing dragons of their age.

As he rounded another corner, he was reminded of all the trouble that Sparx was causing. Even to this day, he still gloated and twisted the truth to make it seem like he was hero, and though most people didn't believe Sparx's stories, there were some in the castle who thought Sparx was telling the truth. Everyone tried their best not to laugh when those people were around Sparx, and thankfully it was mostly just the younger staff members who believed Sparx's stories. Spyro found himself so lost in his memories that he wasn't paying any attention until he bumped into someone. "Oh, my bad, sorry about that." Spyro said before realizing who he bumped into by their pink skin. "Ember? It's great to see you again, what are you doing here?" Long before this moment, Ember did find her parents again with the help of Elora, and while they didn't see their fauns friend much anymore, Ember made sure to come visit every now and then. There was even a rumor spreading around the castle that the king had a thing for her, though it was hard to tell if this was true or not seeing as it was Sparx who was spreading this around, though he promises that he had delivered letters to one another.

"Hey Spyro, it's great to see you to. I just came by to see how you and Cynder were doing. I heard that today's the day you leave this place."

"Has word really spread that quickly about today? I have to be honest, that makes me a little worried about who else might know this." Despite their effort to calm people and stop the violence, every now and then, there would be someone attempting either the kings or Spyro's life, though none of them ever stood a chance against once Cynder was around.

"I wouldn't worry to much about it, I think Flame only told those close to you. Anyways, I'm here to keep you company and maybe help you move some of your things."

"Thanks Ember. I just hope that Flame didn't make our home to far away from the palace. It's hard enough as is to travel to distant cities for a meeting, let alone the other side of Warfang." Ember laughed but patted his side.

"Well then it's good that you got me here, now why don't we check this place out before packing up?"

"Yeah I like that plan." The rest of the walk to Spyro's new home, he and Ember spent talking about things that happened in the past, and how that Ember was slowing taking over her parent's business back in her home city. When they did reach the building, Spyro was glad to find that it was only a block from the main gates into the palace. Inside the building, there was nothing that really stood out, though that was mostly due to it being empty. It was a two-story building, with two bedrooms and enough space to fit all of Spyro's friends inside if need be. Other than that, it was nothing to special, which was just how Spyro liked it.

"You know Spyro, with your connections with Flame, you could have gotten something a lot nicer."

"I know, but I don't want something grand. I just want to live as much of a normal life as I can." Ember nodded, understanding what he was getting at. One of the hardest things she had to deal with was having people stare at her, and listening to comments on how she looked like a freak without any scales, but she had grown to ignore them. The went back to the small room that Flame had given Spyro and Cynder. One thing that Spyro was excited for was to have more space for them. While he enjoyed spending so much time with her, especially since she was gone most of the time, he did enjoy having some walking room. With the help of Ember, they made quick work packing all their belongings and put them into boxes. The moved everything outside of their room and before Spyro closed the door one last time he looked back into the empty room and thought about all the good times he had had in the room over the past few years. He smiled once more before shutting the door.

Hello everyone, I'm so glad that all of you made it all the way to the end of this story, it took way to long to finish this. To be honest with you guys, there are a lot of things that I didn't like about this story and there are even more things that I wish I could have changed about it, which is why I'm so surprised to see so many of you liking this story. It's strange actually to be done with this book. If I recall correctly this was my third story that I was writing around the year 2013 and here I am five years later finally finishing it after restarting it two or three times. It actually feels rather nice to be done with this story. I do want to also quickly apologies for the past few chapters and how sloppy they were. The time crunch to get the story done by the end of 2017 was a lot harder than I had thought I would be, and even then, I failed to accomplish that, as it is currently 1:00 AM, January 1, 2018 where I am right now. Still a huge thanks for those who stuck with me this whole time, I honestly would have given up on this story a long time ago if it wasn't for you guys. As I'm sure I have mentioned before on some of my other stories, this is going to be my last story on FF, or at least for a long time. I've actually grown really tired of Fanfiction which is partially why it took so long to write chapters. With that said, I still must give a huge thanks to all the people who've read, reviewed, followed, and favorited my stories over the years I've been on this site. From the good times to some of the bad times, I remember having a lot of people support me, even when I thought the stuff I was writing was just hot garbage, and maybe it still is, I mean it is fanfiction after all. Still I just want you guys to know that it all still means a lot to me to see how much you guys enjoyed my stories, and hey who knows maybe one day I'll publish an actual story of my own, but that is for another time. Thanks again you guys for sticking with me all this time, and I hope you all have a fantastic 2018!
