The Portal Chamber...
The Skylanders gathered with the Royal Sisters to activate the Portal of Power to send the Skylanders to Skylands. Princess Celestia informed the Skylanders,

"It takes Unity of all Eight Elements to activate the Portal, or a Fully Realized Portal Master."

Princess Luna countinued for her sister, "It requires all Skylanders of the Eight Elements to activate the Portal. Are you ready?"

All Skylanders nodded, and diverted their power towards the Portal.

Rainbow Dash and the Air Skylanders shouted, "Air!!"

Gill Grunt and the Water Skylanders shouted, "Water!!"

Pinkie Pie and the Tech Skylanders shouted, "Tech!!"

Fluttershy and the Life Skylanders shouted, "Life!!"

Applejack, Rarity and the Earth Skylanders shouted, "Earth!!"

Cynder and the Undead Skylanders shouted, "Undead!!"

Ignitor and the Fire Skylanders shouted, "Fire!!"

Spike, Twilight, Spyro and the Magic Skylanders shouted, "Magic!!"

Their powers flowed in White, Blue, Yellow, Green, Brown, Grey, Red, and Purple beams towards the Portal of Power. As soon as it consumed every Elemental Power, it started to glow, and a Spirit emerged from the Portal of Power. The Skylanders, except for the Mane-6 knew who it was.

"Master Eon!"

The Spirit spoke, "Skylanders, you have done it."

Spyro asked, "But we haven't gotten back to Skylands yet."

Master Eon corrected, "You haven't, but you have build a bridge that Starswirl and I have always dreamed of. The Bridge between Equestria and the World, you and Cynder created."

Twilight said in shock, "How long did you know about us?"

Master Eon replied, "Before news of Spyro, Cynder and Sparx's return and my curiosity got the better of me. You and Spike are gifted, thats why I chose you two to become Skylanders. Spikes transformation was not an accident, it was for a purpose."

Sparx buzzed around the spirit, "You didn't need to mention how you found us!!"

Spike asked, "So, it wasn't an accident? If I woke up on the day the Skylanders arrived, I would still be what I am, now?"

Master Eon replied, "After I examined your Growth Spurt incident, I had placed some of the essence of a good Dragon from Spyro and Cynder into you."

But this conversation was interuppted by a floating head. It said,

"Well, well, well, The Skylanders have found a way back to Skylands, correction, MY Skylands."

Spyro said in anger, "Kaos!"

Kaos noticed, "Oh, Spyro, I didn't seem to recognize you. You might want to know that there is no way to stop me, even if you do, you would face an old friend of yours." Kaos turned away. "Glumshanks, show our friend what he would face if he defeats me." An Image of a Purple Dragon appearred, which Spyro and Cynder recognized. "Malefor. You're planning to free Malefor from the Center of the World?!" Kaos laughed as his head disappeared.

Master Eon assured Spyro, "You are not alone, you have friends and allies that will aid you."

Cynder realized, "All we need now is a Portal Master, we can't go in without a Portal Master to guide us."

Master Eon turned to Celestia and Luna, "Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, Goddesses of the Sun and Moon, I make you, Portal Masters, to guide the Skylanders through Skylands. Will you accept?"

The Sisters looked at each other and nodded at Master Eon.

Princess Celestia spoke, "Spyro and Spike, get to the Portal."

Princess Luna spoke, "Sparx, go with them."

Sparx said in excitement, "All right, the Skylanders are back!!!"

Master Eon turned to Spyro, "As a rare Purple Dragon, you can wield many abilities. You passed on what you know to Spike, but now its time to re-awaken these powers, Fire, Electricity, Ice, and Earth." 

He turned to Cynder, "Cynder, while most other dragons can only master a single element, your exposure to the Darkness, has granted you with powers most uncommon, Poison, Fear, Wind, and Shadow."



On an Island thats breaking apart in Skylands...
Hugo, a scholar was on a Shattered Island after being dropped off by his friend, Flynn the Balloonist. Hugo started to brag.

"Master Eon said, help would come. First, the Core explodes, then I hear voices!!"

All of a sudden, a massive beam of light emerged revealing two Purple Dragons and a Dragonfly. Hugo quickly recognized them.

"Whoa!! Spyro! You've returned!!"

Spyro assured, "I'm not alone Hugo."

Spike added, "He's brought a couple of Skylanders from Equestria, including the two Magic Skylanders."

Sparx added, "Don't forget about the former god of Tall Plains, Sparx."

Hugo calmed down, "Master Eon said, you would return. So he did find another Portal Master."

Spyro corrected, "Make that two Portal Masters, the Royal Sisters of Equestria are now our Portal Masters."

Hugo started to yell, "I know you can hear me, your Highnesses. I am Hugo and we have much to do!"

Sparx asked about the situation, "Seriously, buddy. What is the situation here? Why is everyone evacuating?"

Hugo replied, "I don't know, Sparx. But there are still Mabu villagers trapped inside, you got to help them."

Spike said, "Then we better rescue those villagers."

Hugo quickliy reminded them, "By the way, Spike is it? There's a Balloon, that I arrived in. Piloted by Flynn the Balloonist, he's further up ahead."

Spike replied, "Thanks Hugo."



Back in Equestria...
Everypony gathered around the Portal of Power to see the effort that Spike and Spyro were making. They saw them through the Portal of Power, finding keys, freeing locals of Skylands, until they heard Spyro, and Spike talking to each other, they heard Spike say,

"So, we have to find out whats causing this island to break apart. And soon find the balloonist, Hugo mentioned."

Spyro replied, "Yeah, we better find Flynn."

Then a voice yelled, "Hey down there! You guys are Skylanders, aren't ya. Flynn the Balloonist, Best Pilot in all of Skylands." He noticed Spyro. "Hey, Spyro you're back!!"

Spyro replied, "Flynn, good to see ya again."

Flynn cut to the chase, "You, Sparx and your friend better come up here. You might wanna see this!"

Sparx told Flynn, "We'll be right there. Spike and Spyro are checking something out on the other side of that ditch." He noticed they weren't there. "Hey, wait for me!!"

Princess Celestia and Princess Luna were watching Spyro and Spike enter an odd gate that had the Magic Symbol on it. Princess Celestia wondered,

"What is that gate?"



Back in Skylands...
Spike, Spyro and Sparx managed to reach Flynn, who was looking out at something.

"Spyro, Spike, Sparx, This is what I saw before I landed. This Tornado is tearing up the island. Ok, what we need to do is..." Flynn paused and saw a chunk coming towards them. "INCOMING!!!"

Spike and Spyro fell when the chunk hit. Luckily, they landed on solid ground and saw Flynn fly by. Spyro said,

"That was more than I expected. Flynn, pick up Hugo and find another place where we can meet up."

Flynn saluted, "Ok, Spyro. But be careful, you three. That is one mean Tornado!"

The trio met the Mabu, they helped move the Turtle, 'Blobbers' He pointed out that there are 'Monster Gates' in their path. So the trio had to fight the 'Chompies' to open the gate. As soon as the gate opened, they met up with Blobbers, who told them about the Elemental Gates, that can be opened by a Skylander of that type. Spike and Spyro shouted,

"Celestia, Luna, send Gill Grunt and Pinkie Pie!!"



Back in Equestria...
Princess Celestia and Princess Luna heard the call, having Spike and Spyro come back, and Gill Grunt and Pinkie Pie going in. Spike said,

"Skylands is just amazing."

Spyro asked, "Just like Starswirl's notes?"

Spike replied, "Exactly, like his notes."



Back in Skylands...
Pinkie Pie was astonished by the wonders of Skylands. Her Partner, Gill Grunt knew she would be amazed. So the closest gate was the Tech gate, so Pinkie used her Tech ability to call forth a bridge. As soon as they were done, Gill Grunt open the Water gate and found special tresures, like in the previous gates.

They followed Blobbers to another gate, he started freaking out, 

"The Mabu Royal Palace is gone, and the Royal Family are still trapped behind the gate! Skylanders, you have to save them!!"

Gill Grunt said to Pinkie Pie, "Pinkie Pie, bring out the Party Cannon."

Pinkie brought out her Party Cannon and took out the Chompies, Gill pushed the Turtle making a bridge and used a cannon to blow away the wall, Pinkie Pie grabbed the key and freed the Mabu Royal Family. Gill Grunt shouted, 

"Tag us out!!"



Back in Equestria...
Princess Celestia now told Spyro and Spike to go back in.



Back in Skylands...
Spike, Spyro and Sparx overlooked at the Tornado, Spyro asked,

"What happened here?"

Hugo answered, "This is what Kaos has done."

Spike remembered, "Kaos said something about freeing Malefor."

Hugo said shocked, "Lets not hope he succeeds. We need to return to the Ruins of the Core of Light."

Flynn spoke, "Yeah, because that Tornado is really on top of us!"

Spike shouted, "Princess Celestia, when we get to the ruins, swap us out for Twilight and Rarity!"
