Chapter 37
Epilogue
The sun was shining brightly down on the city of Warfang. Dragons were walking all around, traveling on the busy streets of the Dragon City. Dragon merchants shouted out their wares at the market as pedestrian dragons took note of them. Teenage dragons chatted with their friends as they walked the crowded streets of the city. Looking up at the sky, you'll see different shades of scale color as the dragons began heading to the venue. Warfang today was quite busy.
Why, because today was the annual dragon gathering.
Yes, it was that time of the year again; where dragons all over, come to the City Center of Warfang to gather and catch up with each other. It was an important social gathering thus it attracted many dragons. The time of the actual event 'starting' was still around noon; which gave plenty of time for dragons in charge of the event, to prepare.
"Volteer, how's the catering going?" asked the Ice Guardian to his fellow guardian.
"Excellent, Cyril, the moles are working at their utmost best, and I have to say, the food is very mouth watering." replied Volteer to his fellow guardian. Cyril nodded.
"Wonderful, where is Malefor? I've to speak to him." inquired Cyril.
"He is with Terrador." answered Volteer. Cyril nodded and began walking.
He passed by some tables and a few moles whom were placing the food at the buffet table. He looked up and smiled as he saw Malefor and Terrador up ahead of him. Terrador was sitting at one of the chairs, signing a few scrolls; Malefor was talking to a few moles, telling them what to do.
"Are all the tables set?" he asked them.
The mole nodded. "Yes sir, all of them are set."
"Great, back to work." he said to them. The moles nodded and headed back to work.
"Malefor!" said Cyril walking up to the Fire Guardian.
"What is it?" asked Malefor, turning around.
"It's nearing noon, I think we should begin the event." suggested Cyril. Malefor looked up at the sky and saw that the sun was now directly above them. He nodded.
"Okay then, I'll fire the signal." he said turning around.
With a strong thrust, he jumped towards the air. He flapped his wings and headed to the tallest building around the City Center. Finding that it was to his right, he landed on its rooftop and inhaled deeply. He channeled his entire Fire element within him to form one, crackling, medium sized fireball. After a few moments, he launched it into the air. It went airborne and then exploded, exactly at the center of the City Center. It exploded with a bang, resembling the human firework.
* * * * *
"Wow!" said a dragon with awe as he stared through the window to see the 'firework' show before him.
He looked up at the sky as a large dragon passed. It was a large yellow dragon whom was headed to the City Center, no doubt heading there for the gathering. The large yellow dragon was followed by more groups of dragons. The dragon began to feel giddy. His father had told him what the gathering meant. It meant that he would be able to meet his relatives. Relatives who he will be first time meeting.
"Felix! Where are you!" called a voice through bookshelves.
"I'm over here Errol!" he responded. A few moments later, a green adult dragon appeared from the bookshelves and walked towards him.
"Finally, I've found you. Listen, the Library's closing early today in motion for the event. So…it's time for you to get out." said Errol. Felix scowled at him.
"Okay, I'll see you at the gathering, bye!" he said passing by him and running down the rows of shelves.
"No running in the—never mind." he stopped himself and chuckled at his effort.
* * * * *
A few minutes after the signal was given, the City Center became buzzing with activity. The food was served on the buffet table just in time as the dragons arrived. The four guardians stood at their areas and greeted the new comers. Malefor grinned as he walked over to a dragon couple who landed a few feet from him.
"I'm glad you could come!" he said to them as he walked over to the couple. The male was a silver dragon whom looked older with age. His mate was a blue dragoness whom was at the same state. The male smiled as he saw his close friend walk up to him. He opened his arms and the two gave each other an earthy hug.
"Malefor, long time no see." said the silver dragon.
"Likewise, Spirit; same to you too Krystal." greeted Malefor.
"Are they here yet?" asked Krystal. Malefor looked around.
"They'll be here, don't worry." answered Malefor. "If you'll excuse me, I have other dragons to greet; talk to you later." Spirit nodded and Malefor walked over to the next batch of dragons that landed.
* * * * *
"Do I look okay?" she asked.
"You look fine dear. Wait, that's wrong, in fact, you look stunning." replied the dragon before him. She smiled to him.
"Thanks Spyro; you always say the nicest things." said Cynder to Spyro. She approached him and pecked him in the cheek. Spyro puffed out his chest proudly.
"Of course; if I didn't, I would be lying, right Serenity?" he asked looking at her daughter. Serenity smiled.
"Right!" she answered.
"That's my girl." he said, kissing her in the forehead.
Spyro and Cynder's daughter was a green dragoness. Her scales were colored light emerald which accentuated her off gold underbelly. Her horns were like Cynder's but her tails were like Spyro's. Her eyes were amethyst just like her father's.
"Come on now, the City Center is just around this corner." said Cynder.
"Coming Mom." said Seren walking next to her mother.
The small family turned around the corner and was greeted by Terrador.
"Spyro!" exclaimed the green guardian as he saw the purple dragon.
"Terrador, nice to see you again." he replied smiling at him.
"Nice to see you too—and who is this?" he asked as he saw Serenity hide behind her mother.
"It's okay Seren, he won't hurt you." said Cynder to her daughter. Seren trusted her mother's words and showed herself to the guardian.
"What's your name young one?" asked Terrador.
"Serenity; you can call me Seren." replied Serenity.
"Nice to meet you Seren; you look just like your mother." he complimented her. Seren blushed.
"Thank you." she replied. Terrador smiled and turned back to the Spyro and Cynder.
"You two are making me feel old." he said to them.
Spyro chuckled. "Where's father?" he asked him.
"He's over there; please, don't let me keep you." answered Terrador.
"We'll talk to you later Terrador." said Cynder. Then the family headed inside the City Center.
* * * * *
"Hurry up Dad!" said a yellow scaled dragon to his father.
"I'm coming." replied the father, whom was a blue colored dragon.
"Damien, slow down." said her yellow scaled mother.
"Yes mom." replied Damien slowing down. But, he didn't slow down quite enough. He was so jittery; he bumped into a large purple dragon.
"Ugh!" he grunted as he landed on the floor.
"Oh sorry, are you okay?" asked the purple dragon.
"I'm fine." he replied, standing up quickly.
"Be careful next time okay?" Damien nodded. He turned around when he heard his father call out.
"Dad!" said his father.
"Delnok? It is you! Amy!" replied Malefor as his son walked up to him.
"Wait, you're my grandfather?" asked Damien, looking up at Malefor.
"Yes I am; what's your name?" he asked him.
"Damien." answered Damien.
"Dad, have you seen Spyro or Demex?" asked Delnok.
"They're over there, by the park. Listen, I'll talk with you guys later, okay?" asked Malefor.
"See you later dad." replied Delnok, giving his father a brief hug.
"By the way, Amy, your parents are here; they're looking for you." said Malefor.
"Thanks for the head's up." replied Amy.
"C'mon now Damien, time for you to meet your uncles and aunts; along with your cousins." said Delnok.
* * * * *
"So that is your daughter and son eh?" asked Spyro to his older brother.
"Yup; bundles of joy." replied Demex.
The 3 dragon couples sat at the bench, and watched their children play. Felix was a fire dragon. His scales were colored red which was an opposite of his sister, Demila, who was an ice dragoness and bore cobalt colored scales. Felix's underbelly was a faded red whilst his sister had dark cyan. Felix inherited the horns and tail blade of his father whilst her sister, likewise but from her mother's. The two dragons were with Damien and Seren, playing happily at the grassy park.
"How long has it been since we rescued Spyro?" asked Delnok.
"Hmm…I think, 12 years to be exact." answered Cynder.
"And I still have nightmares about that incident." added Spyro.
"I can't believe it's been that long. It was one hell of a great adventure." said Fira.
"I concur. It would be nice to have one of those again." said Demex, relieving the memory in his mind.
He couldn't believe it. It has been exactly 12 years after the Spyro incident. A lot has changed in that given time. He, Fira, his brothers and their respective mates, have aged. All of them now are fully grown and matured adults.
"Do you think this will last?" asked Spyro.
"Will what last?" asked Delnok.
"This, peace?" asked Spyro.
"I guess; it's been 12 years now. I think the darkness has finally come to a stop now." said Fira
"I have to disagree with you on that. Darkness can never be fully removed. Where there is light, there will always be darkness." said Demex.
There was a brief moment of silence that engulfed the 3 couples as they looked at their children. Then, it was pierced by Amy.
"Well, I'm hungry, let's go and grab something to eat." she said standing up.
"Me too; I'll call the kids." said Spyro.
"I'll help you with that." said Demex.
* * * * *
Ignitus smiled at Demex's statement. He was currently reading the cobalt blue dragon's book which was floating right before him.
"That is correct young dragon. Where there is light, there will always be darkness." he said, agreeing to Demex's statement. He was about to close the book when the next page began to glow. Curious, Ignitus turned the page. His eyes swept over the lines and both suddenly grew wide.
"Oh my…"
