Woods

(Bahamut and toothless weave between trunks, following a distant moaning. Drips from the past rainstorm patter all around. Mist blankets the forest floor. Twigs snap under their weight. Suddenly, the mournful calls cease. Bahamut and toothless sniff the air and push their snouts through the underbrush. Their glistening eyes widen in amazement. Ahead, in a small clearing, two shapes shift in the dappled moonlight. Their bodies shimmer in beads of rain water, plunged back into mystery as shadows consume them. Bahamut gurgles. The groggy dragons slowly rise their heads. Details reveal themselves slowly a sleek and smooth creature, with long folded wings, feline features, and even in dark iridescent scales of pure white and the other looks like toothless but bit smaller and thinner. Bahamut and toothless watch, mesmerized as the two dragons slowly turn to face them, giving us a first real look at them. Piercing light blue and dark blue eyes lock upon them. Their heads are smooth and elegant strikingly similar to a night fury, but lacking toothless' crown. Two stubby ear plates lay folded back)

(Bahamut and toothless are awestruck, babbling. They take a cautious steps forward. They recoil and yowl back ''Get out of here. It's a trap.'' They snarl at the ground between them. They stop at their track, looks down at the area, and step around it, giving it a wide berth. They come within a couple feet of the two females. Toothless' lips crackle apart into a big, reassuring smile. He coos ''It's okay.'' Bahamut and toothless inches closer. Their grogginess fades, their guardedness subsides. They hold the stare. For a moment, there is only the sound of their purrs, falling into sync)

(Snap. A twig breaks. The females stir from the stare and jolt their heads to the right, spotting you, hicca and then astrid pushing through the brush. They jump back, alarmed. You, hicca and astrid are gaping in amazement)

Hicca: Oh my gods.

Y/n and astrid: Hicca!

(The female dragons blast. You, astrid and hicca dive out of the way. The violent fireballs hit the tree trunk between them, shattering it and bringing down the top in a thunderous crash. Bahamut balks ''Stop!'' They turn to him, confused, and swallows the blast. The normal night fury balks back. ''But they're humans!'' You, hicca and astrid raise your heads from the underbrush, covered in splinters and looking startled)

Y/n: Yeah, yeah we're friends! No need to kill us!

(Spooked the dragons lunges into the air, crashing through the tree tops in a rainfall of branches and pine needles. Bahamut and toothless cry out. ''No! Come back!'' They bounds up a tree trunk to the top in pursuit. But it's no use. They look back one last time, then blasts fireballs and fly through them, pulling a comet trail of flame. When it tapers to nothing, the dragons are gone, vanishing into thin air. You, hicca and astrid gape, astounded)

Hicca: Wow.

Astrid: Two night furies.

(You and astrid smile, thoroughly amazed)

Hicca: No, not quite. The other is more like a... Bright... fury.

Y/n: A light fury.

Hicca: Yeah. Yours is better, probably.

Astrid: It's a lot better hicca.

(Bahamut and toothless are scanning the empty sky from the treetops, crestfallen. Bahamut not flying after them because he doesn't want to leave toothless and berk)

Berk stables

(Bahamut and toothless are eyeing the sky, lovesick, from the entrance of berk's cavern stables. The cave is a flurry of activity. Astrid and the gang are busy at work, feeding dragons, cleaning stalls. Ruff watches bahamut and toothless, who are still staring dumbstruck into the distance)
