She invites me down into the cove after setting down her fawn. Despite the challenge of moy going to be able to get out I fly down inside anyway. She shares a small portion of her kill with me before starting to tell me of some of what happened to her while she was on her journey to find the Queen's son. I only just notice how late it is when my eyes start to become heavy.
" You're going to have to stay here the NIght wont you," Nightholly says not sounding excited.
" Probably unless you want to find my rider. "
" That will have to wait until morning. It gets cold here at night anyway." She says curling up next to me.
I stare at her in surprise. " You're the most confusing and entertaining dragon i've ever met." I say laying down shyly.
" Yes, I know" She smiles.
I nod my head respectfully before standing back up tall. I'm standing on a ledge lower than any of the other dragons, at eye level of the queen. " Night Fury, Bring the traitor back to me." The Queen hisses.
" Yes," I say nodding before turning to fly out.
" Kill him and-"
The dream is cut short as I'm woken. I feel eye's staring at me. I carefully open my eyes and closely look around. Night holly does the same. I slowly stand up. I take a step back and startle as my back claws sink into flesh. A yell of pain erupts from a dragon that isn't there. Suddenly dark colored colored scales apears under my paw, my claws sunk into the side of the dark dragon. I hiss, my scales becoming streaked with dark blue. It bares it's fangs too.
Nightholly stands up behind me. Without saying a word she jumps into the air. I assume she is fleeing to let me take care of the dark dragon. The mysterious breed of dragon is distracted by the female flying away. I Take the chance and aim a powerful lasma at the dragon. At the same time another ball of fire zooms past my ear. Both explosive orbs of fire hit the dragon at the same time sending it flying into the ground. I sheer whistle of air running past smooth scales makes me look up. Nightholly was diving straight at the ground.
I scramble away from the stunned dragon knowing what will happen next. Instead of veering sideways after she sent the finial deadly blow, Night holy snaps open her wings and in a quick motion snaps them shut. The ball of fire in response expands and contracts before exploding. THe force is so powerful the breath is knocked out of my lungs. My ears ring loudly as I watch Nightholly glare down at the spot where the dragon used to be, now only the burned pieces of flesh and scattered fragments of bone. I don't know what happens next, the world around me shrinks until it is gone.
A few minutes pass before I start to come back to the continuous world.
" How did you do that?" I ask, my voice squeaking in an undignified way. " I didn't know we could do that.
" While on my little journey I learned a thing or two. I'll teach but in return you have to teach me some of your secrets."
" I don't have any secrets."
" You have the mark of the Alpha"
