Ignitus 12: Waiting _old_

He thought he heard something outside; he went to the balcony, to see what it was. He was hoping that Spyro had returned from Dante's Freezer... but he found nothing, to his disappointment. He lay down, deciding to wait there a while.

Spyro had not been gone all that long, but to Ignitus, it felt like an eternity. The thought that something bad might have happened to Spyro lurked into his mind, but he immediately struck it down; he knew that he shouldn't doubt Spyro's abilities, nor did he wish to. His faith in Spyro was unquestionable.

But still, waiting there, doing nothing, while Spyro was off fighting enemies and charging into danger... he couldn't help but feel uneasy, and worried. Yes, there was no other choice, but... it just didn't feel right for it to be that way. But it couldn't be helped. For now, all he could do was wait, and hope for the best.

His patience was soon rewarded; in the distance, he could see two dragons, one big and one small, flying towards him. It was them, or at least he presumed so. The worry and uneasiness were slowly disappearing, though that was to be expected. He got up, and moved out of the way, so that they could land. As they got closer, Ignitus could see them more clearly; it was, indeed, Spyro and Volteer. He gave a sigh of relief. He was glad just for the fact that Spyro was coming back safely, let alone with Volteer as well.

They were about to land. Spyro was ahead, so he would land first.

"Uh-oh... I still don't know how to land!" yelled Spyro.

"Great... look out below!!!" said Sparx.

Spyro tried his best to land; he crashed onto the balcony, and kept going till he bumped into Ignitus; luckily, neither of them were hurt. He looked up at Ignitus, and gave a nervous smile. Ignitus chuckled.

"Perhaps I should teach you more about flying, young dragon."

Spyro laughed, and nodded in agreement.
