I ran out of my cave, not even thinking about the ones I had left behind, what matters to me right now is me finding the source of that cry.
I heard Night running after me , I couldn't tell if it was to find the source as well or to try and stop me, my mind was just to numb from the aching pain in my leg and the dreadful thoughts that filled my mind.
The Island had drastically changed since we first arrived, the streets now full of dragons, their fire spewing at any trapper they can find, the Forest Furies seem to be the ones doing most of the fighting, but then again, they make up most of our Army.
I ran past a few trappers but didn't even stop. I reached the source of the sound and stopped, watching from afar.
Horror, that's the word I would use to describe the feeling I had at that exact moment, it would be the one you would have as well.
Night appeared by my side, our expressions were exactly the same, I went to run down the hill to help but something snatched me as I took my first step, webbed claws grasped my shoulders as I was lifted from the ground.
"PUT ME DOWN SURFACE-SKIMMER!" I screamed, not even bothering to use Dragonese, my horror being quickly replaced by anger.
'You know I can't do that, you could get killed!' He warbled down to me, his grip tightening just a smidge.
"YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW ME!" I yelled, hanging in his grip as he glided over the battle raging on beneath us. I couldn't just let that happen, I had to stop before…..
I tried to get free but it wasn't working, I only had one option left, I didn't like the option but I couldn't just do nothing.
"I'm sorry!" I muttered, he lowered his head just in time to see me use all my strength to bite down on his weak, fish like scales.
His claws jerked open, letting me fall, we weren't too high up but my arms still ached when I grabbed onto a branch.
I dropped to the ground and ran forward, grabbing a dead trappers spear on my way, I got to the battle and watched as the almighty Fury, Storm-Racer, took out five Trappers in one go, there were arrows jutting out of his appendages and he was losing quite a bit of blood, the last I saw of him was when I was on the hill, he had Trappers crawling all over him.
There was only one trapper left now, only one who dared go against a Fury, I thought Storm-Racer had won, until the Trapper unsheathed his sword, I wouldn't have worried if it was a normal iron sword, but it wasn't a normal iron sword, It was a dragon fire sword, legends say it's made out of solid fire, its one of the only swords that can kill a dragon with one hit.
Ropes were thrown over Storm's set of four wings and he was brought down to the ground with an Earth-shattering thump.
I crept behind the Trapper with the Dragon Fire sword I lifted the spear above my head, ready to strike, the same way he brought his sword up, ready to slice down, I could do this and possibly save Storm's life, but I would have to go on, bearing the thought that I killed someone!
I couldn't.
I spun the spear around and whacked the man on the side of his head sending him across the grass. I thought he was down and out of the fight so I ran forward, and began cutting the ropes away.
'Gale?' Storm hurred, his usual loud voice is all but a weak whimper, 'You're alive!?'
'Don't speak, it will just feel worse!' I cried, the final rope was cut and the Fury slowly stood up. He towered above me and made me feel small, but the sight of him made me feel safer.

We were running around the foreign Island with no clue where we were supposed to find Gale, she had run off leaving no trace, any trace we did get usually led us straight into some Trappers.
Surface-Skimmer had flown off and left us as well, we couldn't pinpoint anyone, there were dragons in every direction and Trappers running after them wielding either a sword, spear or bow, I felt like I was about to be stabbed in the back any minute.
"Which way now?" I asked twisting my head round, trying to spot any signs of the one legged girl.
"How about that way!?" Hiccup offered, pointing in a direction of a small-ish hill.
"Have we been that way?"
"Don't think so."
"Well then, let's go!" With that we were off again, we ran to the hill until the accompanying footsteps behind me stopped, I turned around expecting to see Hiccup standing on the spot but, nope, nothing!
"Hiccup?"
"LOOK UP!" A voice shouted, I complied with the request and looked up to find Hiccup dangling from the claws of what must have been Surface-Skimmer, "FOLLOW!"
I shot him a thumbs up and began running after the dragon.

I was prepared to guide Storm to his cave, on the other side of the island, but there was a groan from behind me. I turned round and found the trapper with the dragon fire sword pushing himself from the ground.
I swung the spear to meet his face as he lifted his sweat covered face, he glanced at me an let out a hoarse, somehow familiar laugh.
"Look who it is!" He taunted, "The dragon girl!"
I continued pushing the spear towards him, I tried to think who this man could be, but I couldn't tell from all the dirt that had collected from the ground.
"How long you been here, sixteen years wasn't it?" He let out another laugh.
"Who are you!?" I asked, my teeth gritted together, "How do you know me?"
"What do you know! She talks!"
"How do you know me!" I repeated, pushing the spear even closer.
"Oh, I've know you your whole life!" He pushed the spear away, "I watched you grow up!"
"Why?"
"Because I was trying to save you, from these beasts!" He said, his voice suddenly low, but I knew it was a trick, I had read this sort of thing many a time in books.
"You're lying!" I yelled, "I'm not stupid!"
"You're not stupid, no." He confirmed, standing up, "Just stupid enough to let your guard down!"
With that he grabbed the spear out of my hand and threw it at Storm, it landed in his chest and sunk quite low into his scales, he let out a weak roar before flopping to the ground.
"WHY!?" I cried tackling the man to the floor, I picked up the mans sword and started hitting him with its flat side.
"GALE!" A voice yelled, I didn't even get to see who it was before there were arms pulling me away, "Stop!"
... I don't actually have anything to say
