"Ah!" Spike woke up and saw he was surrounded by trolls. He immediately regretted his decision. "Why did I agree to come here? I don't have the Elements of Harmony. I'll never defeat Discord!"
Spike tried to hold some of the trolls off with his fire breath, but there was too many. He closed his eyes, preparing for the worst, but it ever came. Instead, he opened his eyes to several strange creatures fighting off the trolls. He was amazed at how well they fought. So amazed that he stared at them for a long time.
"Hey, you alright?" said one of them. It looked like a fish, but it had arms and legs and was holding a harpoon gun.
"He doesn't look alright, Gill," said another one. This one had a very loud voice. She looked sort of like a griffon, but unlike any griffon Spike had ever seen. Spike decided to talk to the creatures. They saved his life, after all.
"Um, hi. I'm Spike, and I come here from Equestria." He gave a half smile.
"Equestria? Never heard of it," said Gill. "Is it in Skyla-"
"Wait, you're a purple dragon? I've never seen one like you! Do you know Spyro?" said a third one. It was actually another purple dragon, but more slender than Spyro and had silver horns and wings. She suddenly went calm. "None of us have seen him today." Her voice now sounded almost scary, but Spike somewhat admired her.
"Actually, yes I do." Spike tried his best to talk calmly. "He was sent to my world, which is called called Equestria. Kaos is there taking it over. Right now, a villian from Equestria named Discord is here. He is trying to put this place in a state of chaos. They sort of teamed up."
The creatures just stood there, listening to everything Spike said. "So, who are you guys?"
"Us? We're the Skylanders! Protectors of Skylands!" This one seemed to be entirely made of lava.
"Come on guys, lets get back to headquarters," said the purple dragon.
"What about him?" said the griffon. "Spike, could you come with us?"
"Sure, why not?" He hopped on the griffon's back and she and the dragon flew off. The rest ran behind.
When Spike and the Skylanders arrived at headquarters, the griffon set him down and they all surrounded him. There were seven in total.
"I guess we should introduce ourselves," said the fish. "I'm Gill Grunt, but you can just call me Gill." He seemed to be the level headed one of the group, almost like Applejack.
"I'm Sonic Boom!" said the griffon loudly. Spike thought the name fitted her.
Gill pointed to the lava one and one that was made out of rocks, with crystals for hands. "That's Eruptor and Prisim Break." They both waved and said hi, and Spike noticed they had deep voices.
"I'm Cynder," said the purple dragon. She somewhat reminded Spike of Rainbow Dash.
"Over there is Trigger Happy, but we just call him Trig," said Gill. Trig laughed hysterically. "All he really does is laugh and shoot things." He seemed like the Pinkie Pie of the group.
It was silent for a while. Spike figured they all had introduced themselves, but he noticed small elf creature standing in the back. "Who's that?" he asked.
"Oh, thats Stealth Elf. Probably the smartest of the group, but she doesn't talk much," said Eruptor. Stealth Elf only stared at him. Her shyness reminded Spike of a certain yellow pegasus.
More silence.
"So," said Gill finally. "Who is this Discord you were talking about?
"Oh, right," said Spike. "Where I come from, he represents the spirit of chaos. About two years ago, he escaped his stone prison and tried to put Equestria in an eternal state of chaos. Of course the Elements of Harmony stopped him. A few months ago, a friend of mine named Fluttershy (Spike glanced at Stealth Elf) was believed to help reform him, but if he's doing evil things here, I guess it didn't work. I think we have to defeat him to save both out worlds."
"That must explain this," said Prism Break, who pulled back a window curtain. Spike looked outside and gasped. When he first arrived in Skylands, he never really got a gook look around until now. Everything was crazy. There were trolls and other monsters everywhere, inanimate objects were moving around, and day and night were switching every five minutes.
Everyone was staring out the window except Stealth Elf, who appeared to be thinking. Finally, she spoke in the smallest voice possible. "Elements of Harmony? Are those like the Eight Elements?"
"What are those?" Spike asked.
"They're the forces that make us Skylanders powerful," said Cynder. "We each represent one: I am Undead, Gill is water, Sonic Boom is Air, Eruptor is fire, Prism is Earth, Trig is Tech, Stealth Elf is Life, and Spyro is Magic." She sighed. "If only he were here..."
Spike was amazed by this, but not for long because everyone was expecting him to tell them what the Elements of Harmony were. "The Elements of Harmony are what turned Discord to stone. There are six: Honesty, Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Loyalty, and Magic. I don't have them to defeat Discord, but there has to be another way."
Now the Skylanders looked amazed. Suddenly, Trigger Happy started screaming like a monkey. Then he started shooting out the window.
"What are you doing!" shouted Sonic Boom.
"We're being attacked!" said Eruptor. He was right. There was an airship right above them dropping bombs and enemies.
"Take cover!" yelled Gill.
"No, don't take cover, fight!" screamed Cynder. And they did. Spike hid underneath a table and stared in awe at the Skylanders as they fought. He now understood how the elements matched up to each Skylander. He especially watched Cynder, as she shot lightning from her mouth and summoned ghosts. Then he turned his attention to Stealth Elf, who had the power to turn invisible and sneak up behind her enemies. She then used her daggers to destroy them. Sonic Boom screamed rays of sound out of her mouth, Prism Break shot laser beams from his crystal hands, and Eruptor threw lava balls. Gill and Trig were going wild, shooting harpoons and bullets at the enemies. It was amazing.
Spike's attention was turned towards Sonic Boom when he heard a small scream. He turned toward Stealth Elf and saw her being taken away by a cyclops thing. Immediately Spike jumped into action. He ran up to the cyclops and punched, kicked, and blew fire on it until it dropped the elf. Stealth Elf whispered a quick thanks and went back to fighting. It wasn't long, though before all the enemies were defeated.
"Wow!" Spike said. "That was amazing!" The Skylanders smiled with pride. Just then Spike got an idea.
"Wait a second!" he said. "If the Elements of Harmony defeat Discord in Equestria, then maybe, just maybe, the Eight Elements can defeat him here?"
Gill pondered this. "Sounds like a stretch, but it could work. Let's do it!"
