Fang watched the burning leaf fall down towards him. The longer he looked at the small flame the odder it looked. It wasn't normal at all. Little sparks were jumping off of it and it seemed to be eating away at the leaf rather than just letting it burn. Fang watched as it slowly drifted downwards before it made an alarming movement towards him. The second the strange fire touched Fang's scales he let out a pained screech. His fire resistant scales had never felt the sensation of burning before, it was much worse than any pain he could ask for. It was eating away at his injured wing, seeming to make it worse as his black scales started to wither grey and fall of.

Pain was all he could comprehend as spasms forced him to jerk and twitch. The night was quiet as animals listened fearfully as the sacred dragon continued to cry out. The moon had dipped down behind the clouds by the time the creature fell silent. The sounds of the chirping bugs returned as the night continued on.

I wake up surrounded by rock. It takes me a second to remember where I am, with Nightholly curled next to me in the crowded tunnel with Darklight against my back as a shield against his father's untrustful eye. I put my head back down on my paws and about to fall back asleep when I hear something. It's a weird echoing Through the cave that had not been there the night before.

Maybe Fang had finally come back? Fang hasn't showed up since the confrontation with his mother. It's only been a day but everyone seems extremely tense about it. I'm sure hoping he didn't decide to do something about us not leaving by getting rid of himself... But he seemed to be too proud of a dragon to do such a thing. But even so there has to be an explanation for the sound.

I move to nudge Darklight, not wanting to bug Nightholly.

" What?" He whines not looking up from under his wing.

" What's that sound?" I ask. His ear twitches as he listens before he pulls his head up, a frown on his face.

" I don't know." We both stand carefull not to step on any tails as we make for the entrance.

The first thing I notice is a lump lying near the entrance to the cave, while Darklight notices something a little more dangerous.

" The water!" He exclaims as he dashes back inside. I look up at where he was looking and see that the water that had been at the base of the mountain where their cave was perched was now halfway up and moving quickly. The island was now falling apart around us, huge pieces of land washing into the sea.

"The figure. "The voice reminds me.

I move over to it Letting my eyes just to the darkness. It didn't take long to recognize the body as Fang. He was limp an wet. Like the water had brought his body up here with the current.

"Fang?"

I nudge with my paw. No response.

"If he's still alive he should be warm"

Good idea. I might even be able to gel his heart beat if he's alive.

I reach my nose down to place it on his neck near where a blood vein should be. I was surprised to find that Fang wasn't only warm, he was very hot. Like he had been swimming in a volcanic lake.

" Fang, come on. We have to leave," I say turning him over so he's faces he me rather then the ground. His wing turns over in the process revealing his long wounds almost completely healed.

" Toothless!" Nightholly calls out before being dragged up into the sky by her father.

" Come on Fang wake up!"

"Try finishing the healing,"

I do so filling my throat with a white hot flame before letting it cover over the wounds. Like a trigger his eyes snap open to look up at me with a very startled look.

His voice, normally cool and serious was now that of a young hatchling. " Hi there" he squeaked with a shy look.

I could actually see the heat coming off of his cheeks as he stared up at me. The warmth making ripples in the cool air, now I know at least I'm not the only dragon who is happy dragons can't physically be seen blushing. Well most of the time.

Though his tone confuses me for a second before I put together that he's in a dangerous position if I suddenly desired to attack him. And I'm not even going to bother explaining the other reason that could be simply put together.

I move aside so he can stand up. While he roles over and stands up I notice that his wing is now glowing. Glowing the same color as my normal electric blue fire.

" It's glowing. Wait, you healed it? How?"

" I don't really know what happened but we need to g-" I don't get to finish my sentence as a new wave sucks me into the ocean.

Luckily I'm quite a good swimmer. I had found that out when Hiccup was taken from me just before we met Valka. After I was swept under water I found that my tail and secondary wings where perfect for propelling me forward like a fish, not to mention the extra speed from using my powerful wings.

I swim back up to the surface of the raging water to see Fang's glowing wounds not far above up in the sky.

" Fang!" I call out. It's one thing to swim, but another to fly strait out of the water.

It didn't take long before he was gliding just above the water, close enough to grab ahold of me an house me high enough to fly on my own.

A strong storm had formed around the island that made it almost impossible to see anything ahead. There was no way we would find his family or Nightholly. Fear started to run through my blood at the thought of never finding her.

We battled the storm for an hour before basically falling into an island where we both almost instantly fell into an extremely deep sleep filled with nightmares.

"Hurry!" yell as at a dragon as they so frantically try to fly away from a wave taller than any tree. In slow motion I watch as the wave catches them, slowly eating up their tail. Making forward to their wings as it rips them slowly from their body as they scream out in pain before being completely consumed by water.

" No!" I roar in panic as I searched the water franticly for the dragon.

" why?"

I whip around to see Nightholly. But she doesn't seem quite herself.

" Why did you do this? You let me die! You said you would always protect me! But you failed!" She roars, pure hatred filling her eyes as she glares at me.

" No. I didn't... There was... I couldn't"

" no excuse will ever make up for this! You deserve to be killed by your human! Or maybe I should make you watch him die because you watched and let me die you coward!"

" Nightholly no! You can't be dead!"

" I hate you" she snarls before dissolving into darkness.

No
