A one-shot for mks 12 98's date of birth.
Info: An alternate world where dragons roam free and happy, but one dragon stands out from the rest.
It was a strange day. There was nothing quite remarkable about it other than it was a strange day. The trees were blue and the sky was red. As usual, dragons were to be seen in the sky. None of them were a single color, they were all rainbow and tended to leave wisps of color behind them. Only one was a solid color, and he was white on every single point on his body. People saw him as the bane of color, the Eraser.
He was lonely, need be said. So he sat in his cave all day and all night and only came out when they sky became so cluttered that no one could see the sky. He would go out and fly around, trailing his wisps of white. White, that covered up all the other pretty colors and lent the world to an array of sketch-like properties.
Only one human was willing to approach the Eraser.
That human was Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third.
Every Sunday at four in the morning Hiccup would rouse himself to go see the Eraser in his cave up on a cliff. It was terribly dangerous and shocking to climb the cliff, short as it was. Unfortunately, as Hiccup did not have a dragon for himself, climbing was his only means of going to see the white dragon. The two were the best of friends. The Eraser had asked Hiccup to try and remove his curse, but their efforts were futile. They even tried paint. And superglue.
In the end, the two realized that it was impossible for the white dragon to stop being white.
The Eraser hated his life. Sometimes, he wished he was dead than to live through such a terrible life.
It wasn't all terrible though. He had Hiccup, and later Cami. The three friends loved to play around in his cave and splash through waterfalls and forests together. They made the Eraser's life worthwhile.
One day, Hiccup's father followed him as he went to the Eraser's cave. He had brought spears and swords and an array of mean-looking, buff villagers. They intended to kill the white dragon for ruining their color.
Just as the men started climbing the cliff, the Eraser swooped down! Hiccup and Cami were on top of him, laughing and screaming their heads off. The Eraser roared with anger and joy, picking the men off his cliff one by one and dropping them in the nearby sea. Suddenly, another white dragon appeared! She was beautiful in the Eraser's sight, and he knew that he would never be alone again, with his two human friends and his soulmate. Although he would never tell the two, the Eraser knew that Hiccup and Cami were soulmates too- but they had yet to realize it.
The Eraser and his bride lived happily with each other, content to never leave their cave.
Their hatchlings, however, weren't so familiar with the saying 'Curiosity killed the cat'.
In the end, the white dragons were accepted and happily joined the congregation of rainbows, adding themselves to the front of their family of multi-colored dragons.
The end. Happy birthday, mks.
