Cynder sighed and collapsed, laughing in relief. "This competition stuff takes a lot out of you, you know."
Spyro sighed and walked over towards Cynder. He wasn't quite as exhausted as her, having only used one fury as opposed to her three. "Of course, we'll take it. I don't want to do that over again."
There were still several shurlup on the surface. They paused, confused at the sudden lull and then they charged towards the exhausted competitors.
Wataru and Nago leapt forward, flipping over top of the dragons and great danes. Nago raised both of his blasters, while Wataru drew the Zanvat Sword from Tatsulot. Nago fired several shots while Wataru swung the sword and sent a red cresent wave of energy at the advancing shurlup ranks.
"Should we proceed to wiping out the shurlup, or should we retreat?" Nago asked, glancing back at Stripetail for a second to see his answer.
