The yellow dragonfly smiled somewhat when he managed to get the genie’s attention. Unlike the riff-raff that filled the arena, she looked like someone trustworthy. [color=fff200][b]“Oh, thank goodness. You have to help me. I’m not supposed to be here. My friend, Spyro’s in danger. He won’t survive without me. Moneybags has me locked up in here!”[/b][/color] Sparx desperately explained. [color=fff200][b]“If I’m not released soon, The Land of the Dragons will no longer exist!”[/b][/color] A shadow fell over the dragonfly, causing the insect to flinch in fright as the greedy bear leaned over the cage with a long smile. He gazed at Shantae, wondering if she found some interest in his little prize. Resting a paw upon the cage, Moneybags leaned upon it possessively as he eyed Shantae. [color=8882be][b]“Hello there. Oh, I believe you’re the contestant whose match unfortunately ended. Shame, shame. Did you find something that you liked on the prize table?”[/b][/color] The bear looked left and right, stroking his black bowtie with his claws. His maw parted in a toothy grin. [color=8882be][b]“Keep this between you and me. If you pay me 1,000 gems, then I’ll let you have the dragonfly under the table. Our Steve friend doesn’t have to know.”[/b][/color] Sparx frowned and darted up at the cage’s ceiling to snag one of Moneybag’s fingers between his teeth. Moneybags retracted his hand with a curse and growled at the insect, [color=8882be][b]“You beast!”[/b][/color] Sparx glared at the bear. [color=fff200][b]“Up to your money-grubbing tricks I see! Our world is in danger! Aren’t you worried?”[/b][/color] Moneybag’s eyelids carelessly lowered. [color=8882be][b]“Hm…not really. I have a new home now and it makes me lots of money.”[/b][/color] Sparx growled, [color=fff200][b]“You greedy bear! When I get out of here, I’m gonna tell Spyro and he’s gonna roast you!”[/b][/color] Moneybag’s eyes widened momentarily in fright before he laughed, [color=8882be][b]“You won’t ever make it out of here. No one wants an insect. There are much more interesting prizes here. You will never be chosen!”[/b][/color] [color=fff200][b]“We’ll see!”[/b][/color] Sparx declared. He then turned to Shantae and she would see his head lower hopelessly. He had put up a brave front, but he actually believed the bear. Who would want an insect as a prize?
