Chapter 10 - The Rescue Part 3

Hi Im having a Rescue Rider phase again :)

Parrot awoke in a place he shouldn't be.

Sunlight filtered on the side of a hill at the foot of a mountain, overlooking a forest. Dragons leaned over him, frowning and hissing.

'Is this another vision?' He thought, still half asleep. At the remembrance of his vision, BoudlerDeath flashed frighteningly back into his mind.

Red eyes... bloody jaws... sleek Lightfury wings leading death itself... sweeping oversea right into the heart of the-

"Parrot!" Suddenly a clear voice rang.

"Clear the way, this dragon can help." A dark blue Swiftwing darted through the rebellioners and recruits looking down at the Nadder.

Summer and Burple ran through the crowd.

"Clear the way." The Swiftwing, although he was apparently doing something helpful, had teal eyes that revealed nothing but malicious intentions, and Parrot wondered why he was there in the first place.

"Don't worry Parrot, Burple and- err.. Storm over there helped convince some dragons that I'm a healer. It was the best way to get out." Summer whispered to him quickly as 'Storm' waved away the watching dragons with one wing. Parrot noticed there was something amber glinting tucked underneath the Swiftwing's wing, and Burple was looking strangely guilty.

"Uh, Summer, could you actually heal me?" Parrot moaned, trying to push himself up.

"Better than any of these dragons could." Summer frowned, looking at all the dragons who were flying away after being ushered off. Storm had gone too, his dark blue tail vanishing into the shadows of the forest below.

"Everyone else is still in the cave." Burple turned in circles, looking at the sky.

Parrot's eye twitched, "It... doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. We have bigger problems!" He inhaled deeply as Summer and Burple stared at him, "BoulderDeath. I saw her, she's coming here! Now! She's going to-"

He was abruptly stopped as Summer hushed him with her tail fin over his beak-like mouth.

"The evil Lightfurys are gone, Parrot, besides..." Summer's eyes trailed back up to the clouds, "It's too early in the day to wait until night to try to sneak in the caves. I calculate that trying to get back the way we came right now would only have a small percentage of success in finding the others. We're on our own... and we need help."

"Wow, you're good." Burple commented.

"Uh...", Parrot was trying to take it all in, "But I had a vis-"

Summer was already up into the air, Burple flying up after her. Parrot looked behind him before hesitantly following her.

The Fastfin flew up and towards the smaller islands branching out, keeping her head low, as if trying to blend in with the various other dragons flying across the islands. Parrot had no choice but to follow.

"So, how are we going to get help?" Burple couldn't help but wonder aloud.

The Fastfin briefly looked back at him, "Remember the Tidal Class dragons the Divewings mentioned? Maybe we can-"

Burple stopped paying attention, he had too, he became fixated on an odd point in the sky. Far down below, nearly out of his vision, in between the criss-crossing wings of busy dragons, one singular dragon was not in motion but instead hovering stationary. Burple couldn't process not one detail before the dragon disappeared behind a random Slinkwing's wing, their entire body vanishing in a blink of a golden eye. All he knew was how out of place and odd he felt.
