Scull's POV

I was walking around the forest, after a morning flight. I just didn't want to go back to that village quite yet. "Oh Scull~! Looks like you're all on your own. How terribly sad." My tail clicked together, making a slight rattling sound, a warning. "Rōnin... why the fuck are you here?!" I shot at her feet, she dodged. Shit. She charged at me, a dagger in hand. I tried to avoid her but she sliced through the scales on my thigh. "Fuck!" I was shocked by the blow, but remained steady. I will be returning home to my friend, to my family that I could call my own. I stabbed her with my barbed tails, right in the face. She grabbed a hold of one of my tails before I could pull away, and sliced it clean off. I roared out in agony, spinning around and slinging her into a tree. "You absolute fucking bitch!" I felt my adrenaline rush fading, everything aches and burned. Rōnin ran up and stabbed me right in my chest, I felt something being punctured. It hurts, it hurts so badly. I tried to keep going, I needed to make it to (Y/n) I have to make it to them, see them one last time. I knew that could never happen, ever again. Tears swelled in the corners of my eyes as I felt my chest tighten. I stumbled around for a bit before crashing down to the ground with a thud. I saw my own blood seep out and puddle around my dying body. "Finally, once you're dead the Rider of Death will be no more~!" "Th— They'll still... d...defeat y-you! You w-on't get aw...away with this..." I felt everything slowly becoming numb as black spots caused my vision to become blurry. I'm dying.

I watched as (Y/n) approached my dead body, I watched as they fell to their knees and broke down. I just watched knowing that there was nothing that I could possibly do to help them. I heard Briar call out to them, he's going to take them away from me, one last time. It's going to be for the best. "One last time before I go." I whispered softly as I flew away from the clearing where my dead body rested. I finally made it where the others were staying, and fazed through the entrance. Perks of being a ghost I guess. I walked over to the baby stormcutter, that I'd never watch grow up. I won't be able to help him fly, or hear him speak his first words. "Take care of them kiddo." I looked over at (D/n) who was laying next to (Y/n), he was trying to comfort them to the best of his capabilities. I was so proud of him, my brothers were still here for (Y/n). At least they have the others. "Alright... I think I'm ready. Goodbye (Y/n), please take care of yourself!" My vision of where my best friend and my family was faded away from my view. I never thought that I would die oh so soon, but things like this happen for a reason... no matter how much we don't want it to happen. It's going to happen eventually. I just wished I had a bit more time to tell (Y/n) goodbye, to tell all of them goodbye.

Briar's POV

I watched as (Y/n) sat on the couch in the living room, with (D/n)'s head in their lap. I watched as the others came through the door. They looked at (Y/n) then at me, clueless on what happened. I waved them over, and told them all what happened. "Maybe we can get them a new dragon?" Fishlegs said in a hushed whisper. I shook my head sadly. "They've known that dragon since her birth. It's not that easy. She was their best friend, they both were completely inseparable." I glanced over at (Y/n), they haven't even noticed the others being here yet. "They can ride back home with one of us until we figure something out. Though until we do they're basically out of commission." It was the sad truth we all had to face. We were done here since Astrid agreed to an alliance, but my best friend lost someone that they held dear. After all they've known her since her birth.

We took a week long journey back to the edge. I had to explain to Mimic why she was carrying (Y/n)'s belongings in her talons instead of Scull. I also had to tell her what happened to Scull. "Hey (Y/n) why don't we try to find..." "No. I'm not replacing Scull, I'll use my flight suit." They were stubborn, yet again I can't really blame them. They were still mourning the loss of their best friend. I noticed that they held Leif in their arms, and (D/n) was asleep on their back. "Scull would want you to move on, y'know. She probably wouldn't want you to mourn forever." "Just drop it for now Bry, I don't want to talk about this right now." I dropped the conversation. Not sure if I wanted to argue with someone that could kill me if they wanted me dead.
