Chapter 12
The following day was very quiet, none of them talk very much. At the late afternoon, Bloodnut tries to find a theme to talk about and starts to narrate about random things.
Suddenly Silversun hisses, "Quiet everybody!"
"Quiet!" Bloodnut whispers.
Hiccup turns around slowly. He feels watched.
"Somebody followed us, somebody who is really fast." After a few seconds Silversun corrects herself. "Not somebody... two."
Now the Vikings hear it too. Under the clouds, not far away, flys someone. Suddenly two shadows appear left and right of Silversun. The two Night Furies start to circle around Silversun. She hisses.
"If a dragon flys this way, he always wants to find us." says the female with orange eyes.
"Why are you carrying humans on your back, and who are you?" continues the male dragon with red eyes.
Silversun replies, "We are friends, which want to meet your leader. These two humans are my friends, and I will protect them if you want to hurt them. My name is Silversun, I'm from Spark's Skrill Tribe. May I ask your names?"
The female answers, "My name is Flame, and that's my twin brother Fire. We will bring you to our island if you stay polite and do what we say."
"And let us do the whole weird and dumb stuff, or Inferno will get overwhelmed very fast. Now follow." says Fire.
Fire and Flame dive under the clouds and Silversun follows them.
"What's your plan?" asks Hiccup.
Silversun answers "Night Furies are friendly if you are friendly, mad if you are mad. I will manage the most, just do what I say."
After two minutes a island appears on the horizon. The island is a greyish-black volcano and is very jagged. Suddenly the twins dive into the volcano.
"Watch out, you two!" says Silversun.
The world tilts almost upside down and Hiccup tries not to scream. Then Silversun lands with a jerk, Flame and Fire next to her. The inside of the vulcano is black, like the island and two times bigger than the Great Hall. In the walls of the volcano are little caves, and blue, red, green and yellow eyes are looking at Silversun from the shadows. Bloodnut and Hiccup jump on the ground and follow Silversun, who slowly moves to the middle of the volcano.
"What... is that here?" says Bloodnut quietly to both.
Hiccup answers "It looks like a Night Fury nest, let Silversun do the work, I don't think we can help her."
Suddenly a red eyed Night Fury steps out of the shadows.
