(Clawheart's P.O.V.)

I flew on, thoughts whirling furiuously in my mind, heaving relieved sighs as I came closer to my proclaimed cave where I recognized my faint scent and old traces of blood. Did I really bleed that bad? I landed on the ridge, my tail and wings slumped and rustled against the rough ground, I look over my shoulder to see a faint gold light over the cliffs. The sun. The reds and oranges of the cliffs are pretty. I clacked my teeth, sighed, and turned as I lifted my tail off the ground, and folded back my wings, wincing as my wounds tingled in pain. Better fix them up when I get inside, yeah, dragon spit. Joy.

I crept inside the cave, walking through the tunnel, and then laid down in a very faintly scented familiar spot of mine. With determination, I began to fix my wounds with dragon spit, and I felt much better then. Then I turned back to my thoughts. I can't believe I argued with Silver. He is right in many ways. I am a warrior. I am not a monster, for gods' sake! Through I kinda reacted badly when that creepy guy threatened Ama, and Stormy. What did Tara say? I am a godmother and I do care and protect for my goddaughter, Ama. I sighed, and rested my head on my arms, my tail curling around my body. Wanting to talk to someone, even Toothless, I went to sleep by singing my lullaby, and I fell into darkness.

Soon, I heard warbles, and rumbles. I woke up to see lush greenery with familiar ice around. My body felt stiff. I stretched my paws, flapped my wings a few times. A excited mewing reached my ears as a familiar Toothless came into me, purring and warbling. I sighed, nuzzling him gently, hugging him with a paw happily.

"The little one was very worried for you. I healed you, youngster. How are you feeling?". rumbled a soft yet regal voice. I looked up to see Snowy, the great bewilderbeast, smiling at me. I felt awe, respect, power, safety in his presence.

I bowed my head low, "I feel much better, my Alpha. Thank you for looking after my little brother while I was unconscious. May I ask how long I was out of consciousness?". I asked respectfully.

"Two days, youngster.". Alpha Snowy rumbled softly. Two days? When I was back at the inn, Silver said I was there for two weeks! Must be a time thing or something.

I nodded slowly, "Thank for telling me that. Are the other Night Furies mad at me?". I asked curiously.

"I do not know, Claws of Defending Heart, but Dark Star was here. He seemed very perilous toward the little one.". Alpha Snowy replied curiously.

I furrowed my eyes, "Dark Star is the cub's father, but he never claimed it due to the point that the cub is a Markless.". I reply slowly, then said carefully, "I prefer Clawheart, my Alpha.".

"A Markless? It's a rare sight to see such a young Markless these centuries, indeed. I heard the legends and stories of the Night Fury clan, and I ask you, Clawheart, to look after that brother of yours, for I fear he will have to face many hardships in his future if he lives on from now, of course. I have told Dark Star to keep you in their caverns for the week after you were due to wake, then you must leave this nest with the cub, due to Dark Star's insistence". Alpha Snowy sighed and rumbled wistfully, then sadly.

I nodded, little Toothless playing with my tail, and pouncing around my body. I purred, then thrilled softly to him. Toothless came to me, and nuzzled my snout from under. I again purred, then sighed. I thanked Alpha Snowy respectfully. He nodded with a gentle rumble and purr. I nudged Toothless, and he warbled curiously. I led him, half-heartedly remembering the way back to the Night Fury caverns.

We came in, and I saw elders, adults, youngsters, fledglings staring furiously and glimmers of surprise in their eyes. I snorted, putting Toothless under my body, protectively keeping him safe from any mad/angry ones. I recognized Sea's Weed nearby, and I heard a whimper under me. I glared at him viciously, daring him with a 'don't bother me if you want to stay alive' look. He snarled lowly then snorted as he walked off to the youngsters' caves. I heard flaps above, and I looked up to see Dark Star gliding down to the ground, and looking at us strangely.

"No need to say anything, Dark Star. Alpha explained everything, and I will leave the nest with the cub willingly within a week.". I chirped respectfully with a frostiness tone. Dark Star stared at me widely, then looked down at my liitle brother, and then nodded.

"You will stay with Willow's Branch as before, and we won't bother you until it's time for you and the cub to leave.". Dark Star gave a look over me at the others, then replied, "You accept?".

I nodded calmly, "I accept, Dark Star.". then I leaned down, picked up Toothless gently in my mouth, then padded on to Willow's Branch' cave and got inside.

I dropped Toothless, and he warbled curiously as he looked up at me. I smiled, then frowned as I remembered the fight with Sea's Wave.

"Little brother, I ask you to stay here at all times, and don't go or stray anywhere without me here. It's bad for you, understand?". I thrilled sternly.

Toothless nodded, then looked up at me, in a questioning purr. I lifted a ear, "The cat cub?". He nodded firmly.

"She had to leave, little one, but don't worry, she'll be fine. She has family nearby, and she might be wondering of you, but she knew that I will keep you safe.". I said casually. Toothless warbled, then purred with a steady nod. I smiled, then nudged Toothless into one of the resting nests, and thrilled softly as he yawned cutely. I went to lay down in a nearby nest, then he warbled pleadingly, saying with his eyes for a lullaby. I purred, then told the earlier lullaby, working easily to lull the cub down to sleep. With a final purr and sigh, I laid down my head, curling into a ball with my tail covering up to my chest. At least here has gone somewhat better. What is that sound? As I fell into darkness again, I heard a soft blast.

I woke up, stretching my body, back to semi-normal in Tara's world. I again heard the blast. I got up, and walked out of my spot, the tunnel, and the cave. I squinted lightly as I made it into the ridge. I saw a flying rowboat with a glowing sail. I recognized Silver.

(Silver's P.O.V.)

It has been a hour since Airi left, and I took the solar boat, heading to the cliffs, remembering where Airi's cave is. As I got closer, I could see a shape of black, and I knew it's Airi. I got even closer, steering the boat close to the ridge. Airi looked aplenty much more better, her wounds fading. Her pale blue eyes is the clearest, calmest shade I ever saw throughout the time I spent with her.

"Need a ride, Airi? Ye look much better. 'Re ye alright now?". I asked sophistically. Airi nodded and smiled at me wistfully then thoughtfully as her eyes filled with sadness.

"I'm sorry I reacted so bad back there. I couldn't think.". She replied slowly.

"Lassie, it ain't 'ur fault. We both reacted, squabbling like 'dren.". I replied gently as I gave out a hand in friendship. Airi looked at me, nodded as she grabbed mine, and mid-hovered, mid-jumped in the boat, landing across from me. She adjusted her tail over the seat, and folded her wings tightly. I nodded, brought down the power stick, murmuring, "Hold on, Airi. 'his ol' girl has power, go'd power.". Then we blasted out, the cannon flaring like fire with the sail gleaming like bronze. Airi laughed, her hair flying, her eyes closed. I chuckled heartily as we zoomed along the cliffs, then over the edge, heading back to the inn. In record time, we made it to the inn.

(Clawheart's P.O.V.)

Silver was right. This boat is fast. Not fast as me or adult Toothless, but netherless, it's fast, all right. We landed a short distance from the inn, and the inn door opened... with Tara running up to us. She was calling for me. I grinned, then leaped out with a hovering of my wings, landing briefly just before Tara rammed into me.

"Airi, I was so worried for you. I missed you lots. I couldn't see you in your room, and when I heard that you left, I thought you were going to leave me without saying goodbye!". She cried as she hugged me, rather, clinging to me, I think.

I sighed heavily and smiled as I moved my hand into her head fur, "I'm sorry that I made you worry, but I'm okay now. And I won't leave without saying goodbye, I promise on my heart.". Tara nuzzled into my hand, nodded as she purred happily.

Tara pulled back, "Oh, you must be hungry. You can't go on a empty stomach for your trip back to home, base, right?". I laughed happily as I heard thumps behind, then passed me by, scenting Silver.

"Aye, ye are hungry, huh, lassie?". Silver chuckled heartily. I nodded.

"Then what are we standing around for? Let's go, guys!". Tara shouted as she pulled our arms, heading in the direction of the inn.

Silver smiled at me, "Almost ever'one went out 'or town, except me family, Jimbo, and Sarah, and of course, B.E.N., and Morph. So the dinin' room is all cleared except 'or 'ur table.". I nodded with a grateful smile that room has been cleared for me to settle and eat. Then I heard a warble. A pink thing came out of Tara's pocket.

Tara called out, "Morph, what are you doing in my pocket, you silly boy?".

"Must 'ave went 'or a nap, no 'ess.". Silver commented. The pink thing, er, Morph came to me, and I suddenly saw him up close. He changed into me!

I murmured, "What is he? How did he become me?".

Silver chuckled, "He's a shape'hifter. He 'an change into 'nything.". I widened my eyes as I heard Morph repeated me, then shifted back into himself with pink wings. He zoomed like he was flying. I chuckled, then Morph vanished the wings, rubbed my cheek with a soft warble. I nuzzle him, feeling his soft, warm form.

Tara laughed cheerily as she watched me and Morph, and Silver was smiling cheekily. I laughed, and said that we better get in. They nodded, with Morph heading to Tara. We got to the door and came in. What a astonishing day!
