There was a small celebration for my "achievement" which ended the raid before it got too bad. I was too sore and tired to do much but keep from growling as people came up and scratched me behind the ears, hugged me, and petted me the wrong way. I did throw a few sparks at this last thing, but I was just exhausted, and didn't put up a fuss. Finally I decided enough was enough, and I nudged Hiccup and guided him to the door, hoping he would get the point. He smiled sleepily, and got on my back, holding onto my harness tightly as I nudged the wooden structure until it opened enough to allow us to leave without causing a stir. I dashed home, almost tripping down the stairs, and Hiccup granted us entry. We climbed into bed and lay down, both bone-weary from our respective duties. I sighed and snuggled closer to Hiccup, who made a tiny noise and pulled me closer.
