A/N- Thought this idea was interesting and decided to role with it. This is a Spyro AU that I put together using the original series rather than the 'The Legend Of' series. In this story you can expect Spyro to be at the strength of an upper S-class mage (he is a dragon remember). I will put what I have done out for now and if the concept is well received then I will continue it.

Remember to R&R.

Chapter 1- A new world

(-)

It was a rather peaceful day in the Artisans realm, more specifically in the realm of Stone Hill where the Professor was currently finalizing the calculations on his latest super portal. If his hypothesis was correct, then this new portal would be capable of sending the user across realities.

The portal was a large intricate arch with several Light Gems embedded at its peak that were used to power it. Two tall spires jutted upwards and came to a point on its sides. It was somewhat reminiscent of the Professors original Super-portal. He was nearly finished with putting on the final touches and all that was left was to test it.

And it just so happened that the genius mole had a willing test subject.

Curled up in a ball nearby was everyone's favorite purple dragon, Spyro. He was currently basking in the sunlight tapping his tail impatiently as the Professor continued to tap away on the keys of the portals console. And as always his ever faithful comrade Sparx was fluttering nearby.

It had been several years since the last threat to the Realms had appeared and Spyro was enjoying a long period of peace. But at the same time he was itching for a new adventure, and testing the Professors portal was the best thing he could think of.

Spyro had grown somewhat over the years and was now twice the size of what he was when he first set out to save the Dragon Realms from Gnasty Gnorc. He had also gotten exponentially stronger as well, having learned how to manipulate a multitude of elements such as plasma, shadow, and ice. He was also a master of the art of Dragon-kata, the dragon martial arts and had picked up more than a few magical affinities from spending time with the elders.

There was no doubt in anybodies mind that Spyro was quite likely the most powerful being in the Realms despite his age. He certainly proved true the legend of the purple dragons being wielders of unparalleled power.

"Come on Professor, how much longer is this gonna take? If I knew that I would be waiting this long I would have taken up Hunter's offer to join him for a quick race at Ocean Speedway." the 21 year old dragon whined as he let loose a quick yawn, exhaling a bit of fire in the process.

"Bzzz, yeah, and you know how hard it is for Hunter to catch a break nowadays with Bianca being pregnant and all." Sparx chimed in.

"Yes, yes, I know. I am almost finished. Just be a little... more... patient... aaaand done!" the Professor said gleefully as he input the last of the coordinates.

"Finally. I thought I was gonna die of old age." Spyro said as he got up and began to stretch. "So where exactly am I going anyway?"

"I'm not entirely sure. You see this portal only acts as a doorway. In order to see what's on the other side you have to actually go through it."

"You ever consider the possibility that something dangerous might lurk on the other side?" Spyro asked as he gave the Professor a skeptical look.

The Professor coughed into his hand and picked up his clipboard to go over his math one last time. "Yes, well, anything you may encounter will surely be within your means of defeating. Or are you worried that you might be outmatched?" The Professor asked as he cast a glance at the eager dragon.

"Pssh, like that is ever going to happen." Spyro arrogantly rebuffed. "Ready to go Sparx?" he asked his glowing companion.

"Bzzz, you bet'cha."

"Alright you two, once you go through the portal I want you to find a suitable area to set up this Teleporter-pad." The aged mole said as he held out a small disk to Spyro who grabbed it with his wing.

"Got it... And how do I do that?"

"Just place it on the ground and press the red button. The pad will activate and we will have a solid link to this new world. But before you set it up I want you to find the locals if possible and make nice with them. It would be very helpful to have good relations with this new world so we may set up treaties with them if they have some form of kingdom set up."

"Got it. Find locals, make nice, then activate Teleporter-pad." Spyro rattled off quickly.

The Professor gave Spyro a weak glare. "I hope you understand the importance of this considering your position. You will be our first contact with this new world and it is important that someone of your stature doesn't botch this up."

"Alright, alright, I get it." groaned Spyro. "I won't do anything to antagonize the locals."

Spyro then turned to face the portal. "Okay 'new world', here comes Spyro!" the dragon shouted as he charged into the portal followed by Sparx.

"Even after all these years he is still so headstrong. I honestly don't understand what Elora sees in him." The Professor muttered to himself as he was left alone in the clearing.

Nausea. That was the first thing that registered in Spyro's brain as he woke up on the cold hard ground. His head ached and he felt like he was going to throw up. Going through that portal reminded him of the first time he rode on the Dragon Shores roller coaster. Then there was the pain. He felt as if his entire body was turned inside out and back again.

"Urgh, the Professor will need to make some adjustments to that portal when we get back." Spyro groaned as he attempted to bring his paw up to rub his aching head. But as his paw met his head he was greeted with an odd sensation. Scruffy.

"What the hell is on my head?" he wondered aloud as he tried to grasp some of the furry substance, only to wince in pain as he pulled. Whatever it was, it was attached to his head.

"Sparx? Did you glue something to my head while I was unconscious?"

"Bzzz, nope. I'm only now waking up myse- who are you?"

Spyro looked his best friend in the eye as he began to regain his sense of balance. "What do you mean 'who are you?' It's me, Spyro. Can't you tell?"

"Bzzz, umm, not really."

"What do you mean?"

"Bzzz, you might want to look at your reflection."

Spyro, deciding to indulged his buddies antics, breathed out a stream of water to form a puddle in front of him. What he saw when he looked into it surprised him.

Spyro brought a paw up to his face to make sure what he was seeing was real. But as he did he got a better look at his 'paw'. It was now a hand. What looked back at Spyro in the reflection was that of a human's appearance.

Scales were replaced with skin, and horns with hair. Spyro took a few silent moments to take in the detail of his new look. He was roughly 6 feet tall, had short orange/gold hair that was spiked back, had blue eyes, and was currently wearing a purple bomber jacket with a yellow scale patterned shirt underneath, dark blue jeans, and black shoes.

After a few moments of silence, Sparx decided to check on his friend.

"Bzzz, uh, Spyro? You okay buddy?"

After a momentary pause Spyro responded, his eyes still fixated on his reflection.

"Hey Sparx?"

"Bzzz, yeah?"

Spyro then turned to his partner with a big grin plastered on his face that showed off his sharp canines. "I look damn good as a human, don't I?"

Sparx could only sigh in response. "Bzzz, of course that's what you focus on."

Spyro chuckled slightly at Sparx's remark before stopping to ponder his situation. "So, any idea why I turned into a human?"

"Bzzz, do I look like an expert on body transformation? Maybe it was a side affect of the portal?"

"Well if that's the case then why aren't you a human too?"

"Bzzz, beats me. Hopefully the Professor will be able to figure it out when we get back."

"Yeah. As cool as this is I just hope that it isn't permanent." Spyro said as he finally took a moment to examine his surrounding's.

He was in a forest of some kind with tree's all around. Judging from the darkening of the sky, the sun was currently on its descent and soon night would fall. If Spyro was going to find civilization he needed to get going now.

"Good thing I learned how to walk on two feet a couple years ago, otherwise this would be really awkward." Spyro said as he picked a direction and started walking with Sparx flying after him.

"Bzzz, so, what's the plan?"

"The plan remains the same. Find local's, make nice, activate Teleporter-pad." Spyro responded plainly as he searched his pockets for the Teleporter-pad which he found.

"Bzzz, I meant in relation to your body. You're no longer Spyro the Dragon." Sparx said as he let out a chuckle. "Bzzz, now you're Spyro the Human!" Sparx then began laughing uncontrollably.

Spyro turned and shot his friend a glare, but he wouldn't remain mad for long. Still, Sparx was right. He was no longer a Dragon, but that might work in his favor when it comes to making friends with the locals. He still seemed to possess his Dragon abilities, minus the wings for flight, so fighting wouldn't be a problem.

He continued to mull over his current predicament until he heard an earthshaking roar.

"Bzzz, what was that?!" shouted a startled Sparx.

A grin worked its way across Spyro's face. "With our luck, something for me to fight." he said before dashing off in the direction of the roar.

"Bzzz, wait! We should think this through first!" Sparx shouted to Spyro but he already had his mind set on what he was going to do.

"Bzzz, always with the charging head first into trouble..." Sparx lamented before picking up his pace. "Bzzz, wait for me!"

The giant demon known as Lullaby let out a roar as it fought off the Fairy Tail mages who were doing their damnedest to defeat it.

Erza had equipped her Heaven's Wheel armor and was slicing at various points on the demon's wooden body, Natsu was kicking and punching at the beast with fists and feet engulfed in flames, and Gray was launching ice projectiles at it while also defending the non-combatants.

"You damned insects! How dare you interrupt my meal! I will utterly crush you and feast upon your souls!" the demon roared as it sent out a shock-wave of sound that knocked the mages away from it.

"Damn! It's trying to push us away long enough so that it can use it's death magic!" shouted Erza as she requipped into her Black Wing armor.

Natsu got up from his tumble and was already charging forward again. "Then we just need to keep up the pressure!"

"Begone maggot!" Lullaby shouted as it shot several blasts of energy from its mouth towards the Dragon Slayer.

Gray had rushed in front of him with his fist pressed against his palm. "Ice make Shield!" Gray shouted as he held his hands in front of him to produce a shield of ice which took the brunt of the attack.

"Be careful flame brain!"

"Thanks for the save ice stripper." Natsu replied as he jumped over the shield and took a deep breath. "Fire Dragon's Roar!" he shouted as a torrent of flames spewed forth from his mouth towards the demon.

"Pathetic!" Lullaby shouted as it backhanded the spray of fire away from it.

However, Erza had taken the opportunity to fly forward and slash at its extended arm, leaving a large gash in the process.

"Insect!" Lullaby screeched as it swung at Erza and knocked her back towards the group again. "I'm done playing around!"

"Damn it's getting serious now." Makarov remarked as he was deciding whether or not to intervene now before it was too late.

But just then everyone's attention was stolen by a newcomer.

"Hey, hey, hey! What's going on here?" The majority of the group turned to see a young man who looked to be in his twenties emerge from the forest. He had short orange/gold hair that was spiked back and blue eyes. His outfit consisted of an open purple bomber jacket, a yellow scale patterned shirt, dark blue jeans, and black shoes. It was also worth mentioning that flying beside him was a glowing golden dragonfly.

"Did somebody start a good versus evil fight and not invite me? I'm insulted." the newcomer said with mocked hurt.

Unfortunately the young mans arrival provided an opportunity for Lullaby.

"Now your souls are mine! Symphony of the Devil!" Lullaby shouted as deadly soul-sucking sound waves boomed out of its mouth.

The effect was nearly instantaneous as everyone present began to feel weaker. The weak simply fell to the ground spasming while the stronger managed to remain on their knees.

"Damn, we got distracted." cursed Erza as she took a knee. She could feel the life slowly leaving her body.

'I guess I have no choice now' Makarov thought as he prepared to use Fairy Law.

But it seemed the newcomer had decided to make his presence known again.

"Fearful Screech!" shouted the young man as a red shock-wave of sound fired out of his mouth and slammed into Lullaby's death song.

The effect was just as instantaneous as Lullaby's attack. Suddenly everyone felt the life return to them and began to get back up.

"Urgh, what just happened?" asked Lucy.

"No idea." answered Natsu. "But we still got a demon to defeat." he said as he turned to face Lullaby. But he was confused by what he saw. The giant wooden demon who was acting so arrogant moments before, was currently trembling. A look of fear plastered on its face.

At this point the newcomer strode past the group until he was standing just a few dozen yards in front of the demon. Everyone simply watched in confusion as the young man approached the demon without a care in the world. They were even more confused by Lullaby's lack of an attempt to stop him.

The demon slowly raised its hand and pointed an outstretched finger at the orange haired youth.

"W-what the h-hell are you...?" it uttered.

Everyone was in shock. They could easily hear it in the demons trembling voice.

It was afraid, terrified, frightened, scared, fearful... of the individual in front of it. Such a concept was not possible. Demons of the Book of Zeref were made to be merciless killing machines incapable of feeling fear. Yet Lullaby stood there, paralyzed with fright.

"H-how did you negate my attack?"

All thew onlookers were shocked by this revelation. The young man before them had negated the death magic and saved all of their lives. They too, were curious as to just how he had done it.

The youth smiled a wicked smile. One that showed he was enjoying this far too much.

"Breath of Fear." he stated simply, as if that would explain everything. "That fear you are feeling, it is the result of the sound-wave I emitted. When the target hears the sound they are overcome by the feeling of dread. That particular attack also has a nice added bonus to it. The more fear you have spread, the more it affects you."

Everyone, including the demon, was struck by the implications of that. All people feared the demons of the Book of Zeref, so if what the man said was true, then the demon was currently feeling all of the combined fear.

"Although it only lasts about a minuet."

The demon had a surge of hope at that point. If he could stall long enough then he would be able to regain his composure.

"It has been about forty seconds now, so I think I'll finish this before you recover." he said as he grinned.

If the demon could, he would have paled at the young man's tone of voice.

The youth was suddenly engulfed in flames as he began to twist his body.

"Comet Dash." he uttered as he launched himself upwards and spun his body which had turned into a ball of fire that left a trail of flames behind him. His body slammed into the demons head and shot right through it leaving a burning hole in the center of its face. Moments later the demons body collapsed backwards dead as it crushed a building behind it.

"Hey! He's stealing my moves!" shouted Natsu.

"Amazing..." said one of the onlookers.

"He took out a demon from the book of Zeref like it was nothing..." said another awestruck guild master.

Meanwhile the orange haired youth fell from the sky. Erza snapped into action and caught the man before he could slam into the unforgiving ground. She carried him back over to the group where he jumped out of her arms and landed on his feet.

"Thanks for the save, but it was unnecessary." the young man said as the glowing dragonfly rejoined him.

It was then that he noticed that all eyes were on him.

Erza was the first to speak, albeit with a sword at the mans throat. "Identify yourself." she spoke curtly.

Either the man was completely disregarding her threat or he was completely used to being threatened because he showed no real reaction to the blade poised to pierce his jugular.

He slowly raised his hands into the air with the ever present smile on his face. "Tell me, is this how you always treat the people who save you?" he asked with a mocking tone.

Erza simply pressed the blade closer to the mans neck. "Answer. Now." she ground out seriously.

"That will be enough Erza." said Makarov as he made his way over towards the standoff.

"But master, he is suspicious." the scarlet beauty responded.

"Yes, but more than that he just saved our lives, so I believe we owe him our thanks. Not an interrogation." Makarov said sternly. It was more of an order than a suggestion.

Erza relented and lowered the blade from the mans neck. "Very well. My apologies." she said to him.

"No problem." the man said as he waved off the whole situation.

Makarov cleared his throat to gain the mans attention. "Now if you wouldn't mind, would you be kind enough to tell us who you are?"

"The name is Spyro." answered the young man as he jabbed a thumb at his chest. He then pointed at the dragonfly flying next to him. "And this here is Sparx."

"Bzzz, hello." said the dragonfly which caused several jaws to drop.

"Ahh! It's a talking dragonfly!" shouted Happy who had floated over.

"Bzzz, Ah! It's a talking flying cat that points out the obvious!" Sparx said, voice laced with sarcasm.

After pointing out that the flying cat was the weirder of the two, everyone quickly got used to the novelty of a talking dragonfly. It was certainly less weird by comparison.

"AHHH!" came several shouts.

Everyone turned to see several of the guild masters from the meeting looking at the remains of their meeting hall.

"It's completely destroyed..."

"Nothing but rubble..."

They then turned to face Spyro.

"Whoops..."

"You just destroyed our meeting hall and all you can say is 'whoops'?!"

"Sorry?" Spyro said as he shrugged.

Several of the old men looked ready to tear their hair out. "I hope you plan on paying for this!" one of the guild masters shouted as he pointed an accusing finger towards Spyro.

Spyro needed an out and fast. He then thought up a rather mean but effective tactic.

"Well then I guess we all will be paying for it, right?" Spyro said.

The guild masters looked on confusingly. "What do you mean?"

"I mean it wasn't just me fighting that thing. All I did was finish it off."

Suddenly the Fairy Tail group got a really uneasy feeling.

"You mean you are with those Fairy Tail miscreants?!" shouted one of the elderly men as he pointed to Makarov and company.

Spyro had no idea what 'fairy tail' was but he decided to play along. "Yep."

Suddenly the anger of the group was turned to Makarov who was trying to sneak away. "Makarov!"

The old man jumped at his name and began sweating bullets.

"You picked up another destructive one I see." said guild master Bob. "And not too bad looking of one too."

"Wait a minuet I ain't never seen this guy before in my life! He isn't a member of my guild!" Makarov defended.

Several of the guild masters began to murmur doubts. "He might be telling the truth. It seemed like they din't know who he was."

Makarov let out a sigh of relief.

"That's because I only joined recently." Spyro replied.

And just like that Makarov was back in the line of fire. But then he realized he had an out. "Well, if that is true young man, then you wouldn't mind showing us your guild mark."

Spyro paused ever so slightly. "My guild mark?" he asked with a hint of nervousness in his voice.

"Yes, the mark that proves you are a member of our guild. Show it to us."

And now Spyro was caught in his lie. He had no idea what their guild mark was and all he could do was stall for time as he fidgeted. The his eyes caught something. On the shoulder of a pink haired teen, and on the hand of a blonde haired girl. A mark. It was his best bet.

Spyro whispered out an illusion spell as he took off his jacket and rolled up his right sleeve to reveal a purple Fairy Tail guild mark.

"So he is one of yours!" shouted the other guild masters.

"Noooooo!" cried Makarov as he clutched his head in despair.

Spyro merely grinned. 'Sorry guys. I'll be sure to make it up to you'. Spyro thought as made up his mind about the locals he would do his best to befriend.
