Reborn as a dragon

{Spyro dream}

Normally when I dream it's just random stuff that happens, but this time it was different, this time I was in an endless void instead of my usual dream, I was even aware I was dreaming.

"What's going on?" I said to myself as I looked around then I heard footsteps approaching.

I turned around to see Nightmare glaring at me with anger on her face. "Well if it isn't my captor." She said with malice in her voice.

"Well if you didn't steal my core we wouldn't be having this conversation." I said giving her the same glare she was giving me.

"When I get my magic back I'll." She said before I interrupted her.

"Do what? Oh I know you'll do nothing because you're never getting your magic back." I told her, and she looked confused.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"News flash Nightmare, the only reason you're not gone for good is because my core didn't fully absorb you, your consciousness is all that remains of you, to put it simply your powerless with no means of escape." I told her as she began looking around.

"Yeah, don't even try to run because you're in my territory now bitch, and I make the rules." I said as the landscape suddenly changed into a grassy field.

Then suddenly a cage formed around Nightmare. "And maybe if you behave I'll let you remain on a grassy field, but if you don't behave." I said then chuckled for a moment before looking up at the moon. "Or you will be back on the moon, your choice." I told her and the realization showed on her face as she fell to her knees.

"No, please, I can't go back." She begged, with tears forming in her eyes, and even though I knew everything she has done, regret washes over me.

The cage faded away, as I walked over to her and she was still on her knees with her eyes closed when I got close.

I put a claw on her, but she pulled away. "Look I'm sorry it's just today has not been the best day for me, but here's the deal, you behave and you can live in the dream of mine in peace, no more worries no more pain." I said, as I slowly put my claw back, and this time she didn't pull away.

She looked at me and a tear started to roll down her snout, but I wipped it away. "Just think of us as roommates, will that work for you." I said as I put my claw on the ground.

"Y-yes." She said stuttering, as she got back on her hooves.

I changed the scenery into a start night as the field changed into a yard with a house. "Here I don't know if this will disappear when I wake up, but you can live here." I told her and my vision started to become blurry my only guess was I was waking up.

I woke up in my bed to see mom shacking me. "Spyro, dinner is ready and I made something special because you recovered." She told me so I got up and followed her downstairs.

When I got downstairs I saw a large cake on the table.

"Oh, you didn't have to." I told mom, but she smiled as everypony sat down at the table.

"Well, I wanted to, you recovered from a near death experience and I'm truly grateful." She told me as she gave me the first slice of cake, but as she sat it down in front of me, I noticed Applejack was trying not to make eye contact with me.

I had to fix this now so I said. "Listen Applejack about earlier." I said but she interrupted.

"I know, I didn't think about how you were feeling about everything that happened, and I should have, but please you have to understand everypony here was worried about you as much as you were about us." She said as mom wrapped a hoof around me.

"Yes, I do understand and I'm sorry for yelling at you I was just dealing with so much at once you know." I said as I took a bite of the cake it was an apple flavored cake of course.

Everypony then got their own piece of cake before the door opened to reveal the rest of the girls with smiles on their faces.

"Where's spike?" I asked and he ran through the door breathing heavily my only guess is that he ran here while chasing the girls.

"Hey Spike, come sit by me." I said pulling a chair over next to mine with my tail.

"Sure." He said with a smile on his face before jumping up onto the chair, as the girls got in their own chair.

From there we all talked about recent events and how they impacted our everyday lives, mine would eventually be the most affected but for now I want to enjoy what I have now.

After the cake was eaten we all went to the living room to get a little more comfortable.

We talked for hours on what the future will be like and what could happen now that the girls are the bearers of the elements.

"Anything could happen." I told them.

"Yeah, but do you think anything specific will happen?" Rainbow asked so I pondered that question, before saying.

"If I had to guess I would say major things are going to happen whether we like them or not." I said simply as I shrugged couldn't give them any spoilers.

But after that the five of them left Spike fell asleep so Twilight carried him on her back and now it was just me and my family in the living room.

"So what does everypony want to do?" I asked.

"I don't know, but it's getting pretty late I should tuck Apple Bloom into bed." Applejack said and I was getting pretty tired. But I decided to take a quick detour to the bathroom.

When I entered the mirror got my attention as I looked into it, and as I did I remembered every moment I have lived in this world which left a smile on my face as I remembered all the happy times I had shared with them.

I now take a good look at myself and I think I was just a bit bigger than the Dark Spyro in the Skylanders show, so maybe I'm older than him by maybe a year, maybe 2, but after relieving myself I finally went back to my room to sleep and thought of the things I could talk about with Nightmare.
