(Spyro's point of view)
The out lands was just as bad as what he heard about it. It was even more lifeless than the underworld, the underworld had some plants, but this place was dead dead, not a single sign of life anywhere. *I think I'm stepping into an elf's
nightmare!* Spyro thought to himself.

As they continued to float through the desolate nightmarish land, Spyro could make out the faint figure of an ugly looking castle flying in the distance. It was fitted with jet engines, had dark obsidian walls and had statues of Kaos, along with pictures of his face were littered everywhere. *Must be how he "maintains authority," Spyro thought as they gently landed in the center of the courtyard.

Stealth elf sharpened her blades and Flameslinger tightened his bow and blindfold. The group nodded to eachother and rushed inside, the final battle had begun.

A group of drow came at the group first, including two archers, and six spearmen. Spyro charged forward and knocked them into the air with his horns while Flameslinger shot at them with his bow. Cynder turned into a shadow to quickly move over to the archers and took them by surprise. Stealth elf finished off the last two spearmen by slashing at them a few times then turning invisible and popping out between them. As they both took a stab at her she jumped up causing them to spear eachother.

She then proceeded to sneak past a group of troll mechs and slash at the legs of the one at the back of the line, causing a literal domino effect. A drow spearman almost got the jump on her, but Flameslinger shot the foolish drow in midair before his spear could even touch a hair on her head.

As the team of teenagers continued to rush through the castle slicing and burning their way through Kaos' minions, they found themselves in his portal room. The only one in there was Glumshanks who casually walked up, and just pointed at a staircase that led to an outside balcony. "Lord Kaos wants to confront you all up there," he said, "he also wants you to meet your doom on the way up."

The fight continued up the spiraling staircase, which included knocking enemies down to a death drop, or throwing them into other minions to knock the whole group down. The battle raged until they found themselves on the roof of the castle, where Kaos eagerly awaited them.

"So two dragon flies, and two wannabe drow," he chuckled, "you destroyed my oil drilling factory, rebuilt your stupid machine, and bested my minions? I'm almost impressed," he said. "Why don't you give up?" Said Spyro, "save yourself the painful embarrassment." Kaos just laughed, "after I defeat you fools, I'll be able to build strength and bring back the corruption the way I did before, and I'll destroy that insignificant core again with my Hydra." "Hydra?" Thought Spyro, then it hit him, that ugly ten-headed monster they saw the day the core was destroyed.

Kaos whistled, and the ten headed beast flew up to his master. Each head represented an element, each one as horrible as the other. They all had red eyes and nasty sharp teeth. However what made Spyro feel weird, was that he saw a poor tortured soul when he looked into the eyes of the Magic head. Were his eyes deciving him?

The battle with the Hydra lasted for what seemed like hours, every time they shot at or sliced at the beast, nothing happened. Even the daybringer flame, and Flameslinger's inferno blast bounced off of it. Stealth elf tried using her elemental advantage and stabbed at the water head, her blades broke like glass. Everyone was getting tired, and it looked like all hope was lost, until the water head accidentally hit the fire head with ice. The beast pretty much started fighting with itself as it's other heads began taking sides and fighting as well. "No no no! You stupid animals! Attack the elves and Dragons not eachother!"

Kaos pressed a button on a remote control he carried causing an antenna on a nearby tower to flash. The Hydra looked like it was in great pain for a minute then instantly went back to fighting the enemies of it's master. Spyro instantly knew what to do.

"Guys I want you to distract this thing! I have an idea!" Spyro flew out towards the tower and rammed the antenna with all his might, causing the purple bulb on it to shatter as it tumbled into the abyss. *Gulp!* Kaos was face to face with ten green eyed Hydra heads as they all grinned at him. Payback time!

The Hydra picked Kaos up by his pants and destroyed his jet engines, causing his castle to fall. Had Glumshanks not taken a leap of faith out the window, he would have surely perished. He hung for dear life as the dark monstrous castle tumbled into the abyss. It caught Flameslinger and Stealth elf and gently placed them on it's back and flew out of the out lands, Spyro and Cynder trailing close behind. The battle was over.
