A New Chapter in Httyd

Chapter 6 - Zephyr

Zephyr heard screams. 

Screams she knew were coming from Nuffink, Honora and Ruffles.

She should be screaming too. But instead, she spread out her arms and took a long, deep breath.

The paws holding her were kind of soft, with the claws inside. She looked up for the first time.

Her eyes widened tremendously. 

"You- you're", she couldn't believe what she saw. It was a beautiful Night Fury. No, not a Night Fury. A Night Light. 

One of the three offsprings of Toothless and the Lightfury. This night light was black, and its underside, along with it's paws and ears were white. It looked down at Zephyr for once and she saw its moonlit blue eyes.

"Dart", Zephyr whispered, unsure how she knew her name. "You're Dart".

Dart made a soft, cooing noise.

On her left, the screams continued. From the right, Zephyr heard whooping. She turned her head in that direction. The sight was unbelievable. 

There was Toothless, Hiccup on Toothless' back, throwing his hands up in joy. And Barf and Belch carrying Ruffnut and Tuffnut respectively. Astrid and Stormfly. Fishlegs and Meatlug. Heather and Windshear. 

On her left, things were looking a little different. Three dragons, all holding vikings in their claws. There was a- deathsong? Yes, a long orange deathsong who had Ruffles with him. Honora had been caught by a Razorwhip's tail. And Nuffink... Wow. He was held by a white night-light with green eyes. Pouncer. 

Nuffink, Honora and Ruffles were all scared out of their minds, screaming and thrashing around, but the dragons held them tight. 

"I see you already got the hand of this", dad's voice said next to Zephyr. 

Zephyr looked at Hiccup, who was lying face up on Toothless, his legs crossed. Toothless looked overjoyed at having his rider back and Zephyr knew that if the were on the ground, the dragon would be slobbering over Hiccup. She was amazed at how synched the dragon and rider were, flying like experts (which they were), zipping through the sky. She recalled her father saying that Toothless owned the night. 

"Where's the Light Fury?" Zephyr called. "And Ruffrunner?" 

"Probably at the island", dad said. 

The Hidden World was really close, it's light shining brightly in the darkness. Zephyr imagined each of the lights as dragons and couldn't feel happier. 

"Uh, Dart?" Zephyr looked up. "Could I ride on your back, please?" Surprisingly, the dragon agreed. She tossed Zephyr up and caught her on her back. It was a little hard to stay on Dart at the speed she flew, but Zephyr managed not to fall. 

Dart, along with the other dragons with riders, flew into the Hidden world. The swopped past rock, mountains and a thousand other dragons shining in blue, green, voilet, gold, sliver and pink dots and streaks. All dragons landed on a large rock. Zephyr hopped down her dragon. 

Just when Hiccup, Astrid, Ruff, Tuff, Fishlegs, Heather and the rest of the gang where on the ground, a familiar voice came from behind them. "Brother! Heather!"
