The Crimson Rider: Fury's Rest

by The Crimson Commando

Promotioner for "The Crimson Rider." Toothless isn't the only Night Fury. There's a family that lived far to the south of Berk for 15 years. This is the story, or rather stories, of that family. Follow the adventures and fun that young Twilight and her friends experienced before "The Crimson Rider." Feel free to read, review, and give suggestions for one-shots.

1. Introduction

Introduction

(HTTYD Song "This is Berk" plays)

Fury's Rest...

(Camera opens up to look down on a solitary island.)

Or Crimson Island, as my friends call it.

(The island has a lone mountain off-center, resting against a throne of rock. Before it is a large forest, pockmarked with clearings. A beautiful field of grass and wildflowers separate the trees from the sandy beach.)

It was my home for fifteen years. A paradise.

(Camera focuses on a flaming cross, the fires eternal. It's surrounded by a circle of stones, one of which has writing inscribed on it.)

Now... a memorial...

(Time shifts backwards, the cross fading away...)

To my family.

(A red Monstrous Nightmare is playing with a lava-red-and-orange Hideous Zippleback and a black Night Fury.)

Splatter, my sister's rock when I wasn't around.

(Time continues to fly backward. The Zippleback from earlier is moving logs around and dragging several across the ground.)

Match and Spark, our longest friends.

(The camera focuses on two Night Furies, dancing around in the daytime sky.)

Our parents, Greln and Trena. We loved them as much as they loved us.

(The time traveling stops on the break of dawn. A crimson-armored man Greln, and Trena look intently at the water. A muffled explosion leads to a baby Night Fury with dark green eyes poking her head out.)

And my beautiful little sister.

(The man removes his helmet, showing a few tears dropping at the sight of the newborn cuddling with her parents. Trena moans something, nuzzling her daughter's head.)

Twilight.

(Camera goes black.)

I've been telling you my story.

(...)

Now it's time I told you theirs.

(HTTYD theme plays as the camera shoots open to see time running forward. The Night Fury family and the man are playing together, then the scene fades to them flying over Fury's Rest with a Zippleback. Camera moves to see the group from the front, Twilight's size growing during the time lapse. A Monstrous Nightmare joins them as they land on a cliff, watching the sunset.)

Fury's Rest

(AN) - Hey guys. This is a prequel/promotioner for my HTTYD/Star Wars crossover "The Crimson Rider." Now, I'll try to keep Javelin out of this as much as possible so I don't have to put it in the crossover section.

I intend for this to be a one-shot collection detailing the lives of Fury's Rest's dragons before the fateful morning in Chapter 3 of "The Crimson Rider." So please, leave a review or comment on what you would like to see (This fanfic will stay at T rating). I'll do my best to churn something out. Updates may be sporadic, though.
