I look on as the small five dragons squek to each other. They are all different colours. "This is incredible" Heather says, standing besides me and admiring the five little Night Furies. "Absolutely is" I say, not knowing what else I should. "I'll uh I'll go get the others" Heather says, turning to leave but I stop her. "Why don't you tell them what's happened and they need to be quite. Dragons can be extremely protective of their family. You for one should know that". She laughs. "Yeah I know exactly what you mean. I'll be back". She jogs out of the stables and I look back to the new family. "What do you think Toothless? You've got a family now more than ever". He croons in response and Shadow calls to me. "What's up girl?" I say, grabing the stone out of my pocket. "Come here Indi. I want you to see my hatchlings up close" she says, as she gets up and nudges me towards her hatchlings and Toothless. "Are you sure". "Yes". The rest of the dragons stare at me with curiosity and amazement. "You are speaking our tounge" Toothless says, looking at me with curiosity. "Yes, and it is my absolute honor to be able to understand you" I say, bowing my head. "Now come" Shadow says, pushing me down next to her.
"Wow. This is incredible. How many boys and how many girls?" Toothless is the one to answer. "The sea blue (navy blue) one is a boy, the deep dark blue (oxford blue) is a girl, the nighttime blue (midnight blue) is a boy, the dark pink-purple (indigo) is a girl and so is the black one", he finishes with pride. So there's five. Two boys snd three girls. Incredible. Before I can say something the little indigo dragon crawls over to me and curls up in my lap. "Wow. Never thought I'd see something like this. Thankyou for sharing this moment with me", I thank Shadow and Toothless and look back down to the little Night Furies. I'm never going to experience something as amazing as this ever again. No doubt about it. But one day... never mind. "Hey there little one, how you doind?", I say to the indigo dragon and pet the scales along her neck. She makes a noise like a croon and I laugh. "I can wait to be able to talk to you one day". I start to rub the scales around her feet and she starts falling asleep, her big, bright blue eyes closing as she drifts of for her first ever dream.
I am still rubbing in between her claws when everyone walks in. The rest of the dragons move aside so they can get a good look. The group gasps at the sight of the five tiny dragons, all of wich are now asleep. Snotlout is the firts to say something, "this is incredible. Never thought you'd see Toothless like this did ya Hiccup?" He turns to his cousin and, to everyone's suprise, smiles and pats him on the back. "Nope. Never thought I'd live to see the day" Hiccup says, looking at his best friend who happens to be huddled around the baby dragons with Sahdow right beside him. "I can't believe it, it's actually happening", Astrid says, wrapping her arms around Hiccup's neck. "So what do we do with them now?" Ruffnut asks, looking at the tiny dragon curled up in my lap. "We'll leave them be. They're so cute" Heather says, admiring the black girl. "I'll uh I'll be right out. You guys go ahead" I say as the little dragon squirms in ger sleep. "If you're sure. Lets go. We have training to do" Hiccup says and the my friends and their dragons follow the others out excitedly. "Well lets see where this takes us" I say, giving Shadow an affectionate pet on the head. Toothless rumbles something and I pick up the stone.
"Shadow said you know where the others are". I nod. "Yes. And... we think we know who your parents are". He looks at me, his eyes full of emotions I cannot describe. "I must see them. You must take me. We must tell...", "we can't tell them just yet. You have hatchlings". "She's right Toothless. You must keep this a secret. Until we can make sure it is safe". I nod. "Shadow's right. We don't know who's still out there and if it's safe for the hatchlings". He bows his head acknowledging this. "But I will take you. It might just be myself and Astrid that go with you, but we'll get you there, I promise". He looks deep into my eyes. "Promise on a dragons life?" "Promise on a dragons life".
I walk out of the stables and down to the dome where training is taking place. The first thing I see is Gobber measuring up the dragons, most probably for saddles and Hiccup andFishlegs examining Tiamat and Lancer. I chuckle as I make my way over to the group. "Ah Indi, nuce to see you again" Gobber says as he pats me on the back. "Some fine looking dragons your friends have here", he measures up Tiamat and writes down the numbers and Hiccup and Fishlegs starts tracing her scales. "Ok Hiccup, Fishlegs, Claire needs to tide her. And your the ones teaching so you know...". "Ummm Hiccup, where's Toothless?" Tuffnut asks, pointing to the spot next to Hiccup where the dragon usually stands. "He must be with the hatchlings. Hows this gonna work", Hiccup ponders. "Ummm you can ride Shadow. She dosent seem to want to miss out", I offer, pointing to the midnight blue dragon next to me. "Thankyou. I'll take you up on that offer. Ready to show them how it's done Shadow?" She calls out eagerly and Toothless answers. We all crack up laughing before regaining control. "Right, lets get started" the rest of the group says and they mount. "Alright I'll see you guys later" I say, running back to Astrid's hut to work on a project.
