13 Family

CHAPTER 13 FAMILY The Ember Stone glowed brighter than ever. The light filled Valor Wood. Everyone— even Grey, Maximus, and Thorn—stopped fighting to look. Thorn's dark eyes glittered as he stared at the stone. Blaze dropped it in front of him. Thorn reached out to touch the hot stone, but he drew back his wing.

灰烬石比以前更亮了。 光明充满了勇气森林。 每个人——包括格雷、马克西姆斯和索恩——都停止了争斗，去看。 索恩盯着石头，黑眼睛闪闪发光。 火焰把它扔在他面前。 索恩伸出手去摸那块滚烫的石头，但他缩回了翅膀。

Skyla gasped. "Thorn can't touch the Ember Stone! Blaze is the only one powerful enough to hold it and control its magic." Thorn narrowed his eyes. "I might not be able to use the stone," he said. "But Blaze is a friend of mine now." "She's not your friend!" Skyla shouted. Before Tag could stop her, Skyla shot an acorn, hitting Thorn's head. Thorn hissed. But he turned his attention back to Blaze. "Blaze," he said, "we can do anything together with the Ember Stone and my Shadow! Perodia will be ours!" Just then, Grey stepped forward. "Blaze does not want to destroy Perodia."

Skyla气喘吁吁地说。“索恩不能碰烬石！”火焰是唯一强大到能抓住它并控制它魔法的人。” 索恩眯起眼睛。“我可能无法使用石头，”他说。 “但Blaze现在是我的朋友了。” “她不是你的朋友！”Skyla喊道。 在泰格阻止她之前，斯凯拉射中了一颗橡子，击中了索恩的头。 刺发出嘘嘘的声音。但他又把注意力转回到Blaze身上。 “火焰，”他说，“有了烬石和我的影子，我们就能做任何事！珀罗迪亚将是我们的！”就在这时，格雷走上前来。 “火焰并不想摧毁佩罗迪亚”

Grey turned to Blaze. "Remember where you came from," he told her. "You don't need Thorn. You have the power to save Perodia." "Fight against the spell, Blaze!" Skyla shouted. "You are stronger than you think," Tag added. Blaze ignored her friends and looked to Thorn. Thorn tapped his claws on the ground. "Blaze is mine," he said. "The whole of Perodia will soon be shadowland, and you will all work for me!"

Grey转向Blaze。“记住你是从哪里来的，”他对她说。 “你不需要索恩。你有能力拯救佩罗迪亚。” “对抗咒语，火焰！”Skyla喊道。 “你比你想象的要强大，”泰格补充道。 布雷兹不理睬她的朋友们，把目光转向了索恩。 索恩用爪子轻敲地面。 “火焰是我的，”他说。“整个珀罗迪亚很快就会变成阴影之地，你们都要为我工作！”

Grey narrowed his eyes, then looked around at his tired army. "Creatures of Perodia. We cannot defeat Thorn now that he has Blaze and the Ember Stone on his side. RUN!" Some animals scattered. But the nixies, Owls of Valor, seals, grumblebees, and bears stayed where they were. "We're not going anywhere!" Tag said. "Owls of Valor! Get ready!" Thorn laughed a horrible laugh that echoed around the forest. "Blaze!" he ordered. "Destroy Valor Wood!"

格雷眯起眼睛，环顾了一下他疲惫的军队。 “珀罗迪亚的生物。我们无法打败索恩，因为他有火焰和灰烬之石。 快跑!”一些动物散开了。 但是水仙、英勇的猫头鹰、海豹、抱怨的蜜蜂和熊都呆在原地。 “我们哪儿也不去！”标签说。 “勇敢的猫头鹰！”准备好!”索恩发出可怕的笑声，在森林里回荡。 “火焰！”他命令道。“摧毁英勇森林！”

Blaze's feathers lit up. She picked up the Ember Stone and spread her flaming wings, preparing to shoot giant fire bolts at Valor Wood. The light from the stone grew even brighter. She opened her beak... "No!" Tag shouted. He leaped onto Blaze's back as she took to the air! Blaze swooped up and down, trying to throw Tag off. Tag held on tightly, even though Blaze's feathers burned hotter and hotter. "Blaze!" Tag shouted. "Please! Remember who you are!"

火焰的羽毛亮了起来。她拾起余烬之石，展开燃烧的翅膀，准备向英勇森林发射巨大的火焰弩箭。 石头发出的光更亮了。 她张开嘴……“不!”标签喊道。 当Blaze飞到空中时，他跳到了她的背上！布雷兹上下猛扑，试图甩掉泰格。 泰格紧紧地抓着，尽管火焰的羽毛烧得越来越热。 “大火!”标签喊道。“请!记住你是谁！”

Blaze's feathers were so hot now that Tag could not hold on any longer. "We're more than friends!" Tag called out as he finally let go. "We're family!" Tag landed beside Skyla. Together, they watched Blaze circle Valor Wood, getting closer and closer, until ZOOM! Blaze shot a fire bolt at Thorn, knocking him to the ground. She turned and smiled at Tag. Her eyes were blue again! "This is for my family!" Blaze called as she headed up into the dark heart of The Shadow.

烈焰的羽毛烫得泰格再也抓不住了。 “我们不仅仅是朋友！”泰格终于放开手，大声喊道。 “我们家族!”泰格落在斯凯拉身边。 他们一起看着火焰围着英勇森林转，越来越近，直到ZOOM！烈焰向索恩射出一道火焰弩箭，将他击倒在地。 她转过身来，对泰格微笑。 她的眼睛又变蓝了！“这是为了我的家人！”火焰喊道，她向黑暗的阴影中心走去。
