After the pirates had been dealt with, and Phantom moved to the clubhouse on Dragons Edge, the riders watched over him for signs of improvement. After three days of rest on a makeshift bed, Phantom finally woke, looking more like his normal self. He rose out of the bed wearing nothing but a pair of trousers, his chest completely bare. The filth and grime on his skin had been washed away, and any injuries he had were taken care of.

He groaned as his stiff muscles were forced to comply with waking up, and he unknowingly startled the sentry watching over him. As soon as this unknown person came into his field of vision, Phantom shot out of the bed and backed himself up against a wall snarling.

The black haired male stood at a distance, arms raised in a peaceful manner. "Hey, woah, easy. You've been unconscious for three days, and locked up in a cell for Thor knows how long else, so don't go overexerting yourself."

Phantom continued to back away, but his overly large fangs were bared in attack. Snotlout, who had been warned about his possible behaviour, continued to give him space.

"You have been under the protection of Hiccup Haddock and Shadow Void-Wing, they have made sure you have received the best medical attention we have. You are on our island, Dragons Edge."

He seemed to calm slightly once he received this information. "Shadow Void-Wing? She's here?"

"Yes she is." He replied. Snotlout relaxed around the man and spoke out loud to himself, which wasn't the best thing to do given the circumstances. "Wow, another Black Moon. I honestly thought that I would never see another one of them."

Phantom tensed. His breathing became more ragged. He knew, the stranger knew about the Black Moons. They were supposed to be secret. How did he know? Was Shadow compromised? If this black haired male knew, then the others on this island must know too, meaning they were found out.

Phantom could not let that stay the same. So he growled and started advancing on the other male.

"Uh, what are you doing? Hey, uh, why are you looking at me like that? Umm, ok now you are creeping me out. Stay back. Get away! Ahh!"

Phantom lunged for Snotlout snarling like an enraged animal. Snotlout bolted for his life out of the clubhouse, screaming in fear. Off in the distance, the other dragon riders heard and ran to his rescue, while Phantom spurred himself on despite his pain to catch the man he knew had caught him out.

His fangs and claws were so close to sinking into his flesh, and he was moments away from killing him before a large shadow flew overhead. He took his eyes off his prey for a moment, and his eyes widened in shock. A pair of large, black wings descended towards him, the creature attached to them cannoned into him and sent them both over the edge of the bridge.

They fell, hit the ground with a loud thud, and tumbled on the ground in a flurry of mismatched limbs. Shadow pinned Phantom to the ground and crouched over him, wings splayed out. Phantom immediately froze. His silver eyes were wide as he inspected every part of her. His eyes roamed over her face, her teeth, the claws pinning his shoulders to the grass, the horns crowning her head, the scales covering her skin, and the massive wings covering the sun above him.

Shadow's eyes bore deep into his as he looked over her, his face had changed since the last time she saw him. He was older, more ragged, had seen more hells. His eyes were a darker silver than before, his face was more grown up and mature, and his hair was much longer. In some ways she liked this new version of him, but she wanted the old Phantom back too.

"Shadow… What happened?" he breathed. Her eyes softened. "It's a long story."

Someone called out her name from above, when she looked up she could see Hiccup watching them. She looked back down at Phantom. "These humans are trustworthy. They are not to be harmed." Phantom looked up at Hiccup, who was staring down at them with slightly narrowed eyes. "Are they yours?" Shadow shrugged. "More or less…" the two of them stood up.

"Are you alright Shadow?" Hiccup called out. She nodded. Hiccup beckoned them back up with a wave of his hand. The dragon girl lead the human formed Black Moon back up to the high reaches of Dragons edge, where he was met with the toothy faces of weary dragons.

Toothless walked up to Phantom with narrowed and suspicious green eyes. He proceeded to sniff all over Phantom's body to deduce whether he was a threat. Phantom willingly allowed the Night Fury to inspect him, and showed that despite his longer than normal nails and large canine teeth, he was unarmed.

When Toothless was satisfied, he wandered back to Hiccup, who gave him a scratch under the chin. The male Black Moon intriguingly watched the exchange.

Hiccup then cleared his throat and approached the other male. "Welcome to Dragons Edge. I'm Hiccup Haddock, first in command of the Berk Dragon Academy, only son to Stoick the Vast. Shadow is my right hand commander, and Astrid is my left hand warrior."

Shadow and Astrid stood by their leader in their correct places as they were introduced, and one by one, the others moved in to stand next to them as they were called too. Finally it was Phantom's turn to introduce himself.

"My name is Phantom Ghost-Fang, level three undercover infiltrator. Second son to one of the Five Army Generals of the Black Moon Dragon Society."

One of the teens asked what brought him this far North, to which he narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists.

"I'm being pursued by a dragon hunter known as Grey."

.

A few hours later, Phantom had been given a room inside the Dragons Lair, and was currently there focusing on restoring his energy. He had been locked up in that cage for too long, and it had affected him greatly. He sat cross legged in a pile of furs on the ground, a nest just like the one Shadow had for herself in another room. Said female was sitting behind him as he meditated, cutting his hair to its normal length.

Cut by cut, he was beginning to look more like his old self again. He continuously focused on the sound to keep his mind focused on channelling his energy.

"What on earth did you do to have Grey chase after you?" asked Shadow while she worked. Phantom chuckled. "I may have used seduction methods on his offspring to learn some very sensitive information."

Shadow chuckled along with him. "I can see why he would be pissed at you." She said.

"Wait a minute, doesn't Grey have a son?" Phantom smirked. "Well… yes." Shadow couldn't help it and burst out laughing. "Wow, you are right back in the mess."

The two laughed for a few moments before they calmed down. "So whats the sensitive information you learned from him?" she asked.

"Before I was caught red handed, I found out the locations of six of their new bases in Europe, as well as how many of our kind have been killed by the Hunters of Supernatural Creatures. Thirty have been killed by them in the past five years."

Shadow clenched her fist. The population of her kind were low enough already. They had almost two thousand, but that wasn't much, and now they had lost thirty, either they were mated pairs or hatchlings, but each were key to keeping their kind alive and on the face of the earth. They couldn't lose any more, they couldn't afford to.

Phantom sighed and leant back into her. "You have no idea how glad I am to have found you. It's been too long." Shadow ran her claws through his now shortened hair.

"It's good to see you again Phantom. I hope we can get to know each other again after being away from each other for a century."
