The legend of Spyro: ponies in the dragon realm

Flying over the sea, Spyro along with Twilight, Applejack and Pinkie pie were closing in on the Mountain Fortress, carring two ponies was different for Spyro, he was use to giving his kids a ride but two fully grown ponies was another. Going into the mountain range, Spyro kept an eye out for the fortress, " There," he said, pointing at a mountain from far way it looked like any other mountain but upon closer inspection they saw the details of a fortress. The front gates was carved with in the mountain, balconies above the gates, open windows for natural lighting, two stone dragons stood guard. Landing they walked through the gates and the girls couldn't believe their eyes, a Kingdom built inside the mountain. Carved into the walls were homes as earth dragons wondered about the Kingdom, moving along they saw hallways leading further into the mountain and though she wanted to explore, Twilight remained with the group as the continued on their path.

Nearly half an hour passed before they reached the throne room, "Hault, I'm sorry Master Spyro but the King is in an important meeting."

"I understand but I come with an urgent message from general Allan." The two looked at each other before looking back at the purple dragon and his companions.

"Very well, but only you can enter, your, uh...companions must stay out here."

"Thank you." The two opened the doors and he walked in quietly as the countsal dragons, the King and the Prince listened to the bekering of the elder dragons. The Prince, a tan and black dragon saw Spyro out of the corner of his eyes. "Gentel drakes I believe we have an un announced visitor." Looking back they saw Spyro sitting there quietly, waiting for the chattering to be done.

"Excuse us Master Spyro but we are in a meeting and..."

"I bring a message from general Allan one that must be heard."

The room fell silent, "Very well then, you may proceed." The King said, his voice deeper than Terrador.

"In the event of the previous attack on the Northern Kingdom, we believe a fire dragon has used a dark crystal, one similar to Shadow's and is believed to attack here or Warfang. Cynder and a small group of allies are going to Warfang, if not already there, while I was assigned to come here with the other half of the party. As for the general he returned to the mountain temple to search for any artifacts that are still active, we believe this dragon is either looking for such artifacts or is recruiting darkers to attack here. We each have a crystal in case we encounter him."

"How strong is this dragon?" asked one of the elders.

"Strong enough to challenge me, and is very strong with the fire element as to be the next fire guardian if he wasn't evil."

"Thank you Master Spyro, countsal drakes you will head to the archives and find what you can about active artifacts that can aid this dragon, son you will assemble the troops and get them ready for an invation and Spyro...may we see your allied friends?"

Nodding he called in the three girls and the dragons stared at them with confused and disbelief looks. As for the three mares they saw the dragons, the one on the throne was an olive drap green, a lighter color for his chest, horns that resembled Spyro's, two cheek spikes on either side that his his side burns, small spikes at the base of his horns with sharp rock patches on his shoulders and a razor sharp rock spade at the end of his tail. Three spikes on his massive wings, two on top and the third a quarter from the bottom, his wings were darker than his scales.

As for the Prince, he was more of a khaki yellow-brown with a black underside, he had his father's horns, and tail, he stood nearly two heads over Spyro. "Uuhh...no offence my friend but how can three ponies help in a dragon war?"

"I know their small but remember I wasn't much bigger when I defeated Malefor a decade ago, but please Felspar hear me out. Six years ago myself and Cynder got suck into a vortex and landed in their world where Shadow was as well, it took a few months to get use to the place and defeat him, these ponies are good when it comes to defending their home even against a tyrant like Shadow. Twilight is one out of five princesses in their world and can help going through scrolls...As long as she has a translator handy. Applejack is strong enough to kick down a mature tree, sure an easy feat for a dragon but she can also break our crystals. She did this in the battle for the North, helping heal the wounded. And Pinkie Pie...well let's say you don't want to get on her bad side.
These three are out of six that represent the elements of harmony, a powerful souce of magic when together, please your honor give them a chance to prove themselves worthy allies to you as they did with me."

The King started thinking over what Spyro had said, "very well Spyro, seeing you trust them, they are yours but if they do not follow an order they will be pulled off and sit this battle out, is that understood?"

"It is your majesty, but please King Terrenus, don't judge them to hastly. Twilight go with the elders to the archives and please don't touch anything except book and scrolls unless they say you can."

"Got it, umm which way is it?"

"Follow us young princess, and do try to keep up." One of the elders said walking by them and Twilight followed the elders as Spyro and the others figured out the best possible places for the two girls.

"If the pink one is unique as you say then she will help protect the gates."

"Okie dokie lokie." Pinkie said hopping away, leaving Applejack left to sort out.

"You said she's strong for a pony? Able to break crystals, then she will also help with the front gates until we need crystals, I will show you where the medical wing and the crystals are. As for you my friend...feel free to help where it's needed."

"Thank you King Terrenus." Spyro walked off as the King led the farm pony to the medical room, explaining that they use their own magic to heal the wounded but uses crystals to rejuvenate themselves or help the injured if they get over whelmed but that hasn't happed in ages. Down in the archives Twilight's eyes lite up like a Christmas tree thousands of ancient books, scrolls, artifacts all will taken cared of looking down the elder smiled at her expression.

"Please fell free to roam about but to take great care of the artifacts they are as ancient as the mountains history." He said walking over to a particular shelf and started bringing books down, creating a small nest around him, laying down he flipped open a book and got into it. As for the purple alicorn she roamed the hall scanning the shelves, a golden tag with un-none writting on it with the common tongue under it.

"What's this language on the tags?"

"Dwarvish, they built this fortress before returning to the Northren Mountains, trade there was better then having to wait for vessels that may get attack by who know what under the waves. The self behind you and the six before it is their history...well only on the island. Translator is on the fourth shelf."

Walking up to the shelf she saw a chart with the dwarven writting and the common tongue under it, like the tags. Going back to the shelf, Twilight grabbed one of the books using her magic and started reading and as she speed read she found a picture of a dwarf. Only six inches taller then herself, he had a thick bushy beard, long hair, an axe in one hand and a sword on his back the dwarf wore a tabard, chain mail under it, gloves underneath arm guards, thick leather boots with a steel cap over the toes. "So that's a dwarf." Twilight said to herself, it had similar features to Allan, but comparing the two in her head Allan was taller, leaner and moved with lightning speed. The dwarf seemed to have a thicker build, and looked slower but having two weapons showed it was no push over when it came to battles.

"Don't let their thicker build fool you young princess, a dwarf is an excellent warrior, masters of forging weapons of war, they started crafting this place before being called back to Nidavellir and join Allan in the great war. But their race was wiped out during that war as well as their famous kingdom."

"None survived?!"

"No, not even going deeper underground could have saved them from Shadow's wrath."

Up above Pinkie was hopping along one of the balconies that were over the front gates, and saw nothing but mountains and the sea. "Pretty view, why would somebody ever want to attack this place?" She asked but she was alone, not that it bothered her. Tasting the stone, she then knocked on it, "meh seems strong enough." Shaking her mane and tail, parts on a cannon fell from her hair, quickly assembling a rather large cannon. "Ok big bertha time to defend a dragon kingdom." She sat by her cannon and waited, and waited, and waited soon she fell asleep, Applejack came up and shook her head bringing the pink pony a blanket as night approached.

In his own private chambers, Spyro looked out the window watching the sunset as it slipped behind a hidious face carved out of stone, and thinking about his children. Back in the forest Caelos was rushing the kids in as it started to rain heavily, "come on, get in, get in." All three got in as the rain poured down and the wind dragon looked outside and watch as the storm moved from the North, covering the East and West coasts. "There is a storm brewing Spyro I just hope your ready for it to strike.

In the Northren Mountains Allan also watch as the storm moved over head from within the door way of the temple as lightning strikes across the sky. The tension in the air was that of a final battle getting ready to be under way and Allan still had found nothing on any artifacts that could pose such a threat to them and the world, but nonetheless he was prepared for a war that was yet to come.

Morning dawned and Twilight came up with the elder declaring that there was nothing of value on the island, coming to the front gate they saw Spyro staring off in the distance, "Spyro, you alright sugar cube?" But he didn't reply instead she walked over and looked in the direction he was looking and saw the mountain.

"It was called the Mountain of Malefor or the Well of Souls the most well known mountain fortress in the realm, it was there I faced Gaul to rescue Cynder, and it was there we faced him again to save our eggs. If our mystery dragon is anywhere its got to be there this one is too secluded for most dragons to find, I'll go check the place out."

"Not without us your not." Turning around he saw Twilight and Felspar, nodding the flew off towards the mountain not sure of what they will find. Coming closer to the Well of Souls Twilight got the shivers just by looking at the place, a round roof over the entrance, the walls had spikes on top and all around a spooky green glow flowed thfough the cracks along the sides. Landing at the front gates they walked through what was left of the main entrance, and coming out they came to an open area with green gems all along the wall and a door on the other side. Broken walls that once held some thing behind them, they came to the stone door and Felspar broke it down and Spyro peeked inside, the laser that was once there no longer existed as the stone face was gone, the hall seemed in rather good condition and they strolled through coming to a large opening that had a large door, stair case and another door but the bigger door had rusty chains on it and Spyro had no intention of going through them, as he could only imagine where that door led to. Going through the smaller door they circled around a small statue of the dark master himself before leaving the room and into a similar opening that was near the front, scattered armor worn by apes littered the ground broken gates near a large hole that had the strange liquid in it.

"What is that stuff?" Twilight asked.

"Green lava, colder than regular lava but no less dangerous." Spyro replied.

Moving along they walked down a tunnel that led them to an opening where they flew upwards before they continued following the path before they glided down, looking for anything that seemed out of place and for Spyro it was easy having traveled this path before but the other two simple followed seeing the inside of the fortress for the very first and possible last time. Following the railing they came to a large pool of the green lave, taking to the air they flew towards an opening that again had more lave but at the top of a platform was a door and like before Spyro checked for a laser but the hall seemed more damaged than the first and they soon found themselves looking at a large round platform.

"You ok Spyro?" Felspar asked as his friend stared at the platform.

"Yeah just...this is where a number of ghouls that wandered the place faught me, I'm just being cautious that's all."

Leaping onto the platform they saw broken shields, weapons and armor on it, lucky them no evil spirit took up the armor as they hopped from one small one to another before reaching a door moving passed it they again took to the sky as no floating platforms were there to help them up and came to a third opening similar to the two lower down on the mountain summoning his earth power, Spyro blasted an earth missile to remove the ruble and the door behind it and without its laser they moved along before hopping onto platforms that led to a tunnle, coming out the other side Twilght got her first look at Malefor as a giant statue of him was at the far corner, it seemed in rather good condition after Spyro's last visit. They jumped up and followed a path that lead outside and they flew up to the mouth of the mountain but it had collapsed in on itself.

"This is were I used a time fury to encase myself, Sparx and Cynder from the crumbling walls for three years. It's were I got cursed with my dark form, and defeated Gaul, the ape King. Nothing seemed out of place so he's not here."

"So what now?" Asked Twilight.

"Head back and wait for Allan's orders, it's all we can do."
