The Silver Fury

Chapter 2

Raven continued running through the forest, only stopping if she heard abnormal sounds. She had found a couple of terrors but that was it when she heard her mother calling her. 

"Raven!" 

"Coming!" she yelled. She ran back from the way she came and soon enough she reached the back of her house. She walked inside and sat down with her mom. No one new who her dad was. Raven always thought he had died in a raid shortly after her mom was pregnant with her. 

After she ate dinner she headed up to her room and started to draw what she thought the Silver Fury looked like. She always thought it had tail sounds that could shoot like the Deadly Nadder. It was of course silver. 

She eventually finished drawing. It had a long neck and a slender body with what looked like armor all over the body, but that was just how it was made. She hid it under some of her other drawings, just in case her mother came into her room. Then she blew out the candles and went to her bed. 

The next morning her mother woke her up. "Dragon training," she said. 

Raven jumped out of bed. "What time is it?" she said. 

"You have thirty minutes." 

Raven rushed to put on her armor, then rushed downstairs. She grabbed a peice of stale bread, then rushed out of the house saying, "Bye, mom!" with her mouth full of bread. 

Dragon training was a disaster as usual. They were fighting a Deadly Nadder and let's just say that they will have to build new walls for the maze because the Nadder was burning them down. Then, finally, Gobber, who was quite old to still be running dragon training, ended the lesson. He was so old he had even trained my mom and Hiccup. Raven had never met Hiccup; he was taken by a dragon right before she was born. She knew that it had hurt a lot of the people, but we're Vikings. We got over it pretty quickly, and now Snotlout is our new chief. She knew her mom absolutely despises him. 

After she left dragon training, she heard a ruckus in the great hall. Raven walked in and her mom and a few others were rioting against Snotlout. Snotlout did not look phased at all. Eventually her mom walked towards the exit of the great hall. Raven ran out of there, back to her house, and then up to her room where she sat down at her desk, imagining what it would be like if she killed a Silver Fury. She would be worshiped. She sketched it out and was about half way done when her mom called her down for dinner. 

"Fish stew," she said, placing a bowl in front of Raven. It reaked a horrible smell, but she ate it knowing what her mom would say if she didn't finish it. 

"More?" Astrid showed the pot to her. She politely declined, saying that she was full. 

She went up to her room and decided to finish the sketch in the morning.

AAaaOoo! 

The dragon horn rang through the village in the middle of the night, waking up every one. Raven looked outside the window and saw the chief running towards a grounded Monstrous Nightmare. She ran to put her armor on. She grabbed her two-headed axe. She had never fought with this before. She thought it would give her good luck. Raven ran out of the house and quickly ran to a rogue Gronkle.  

She heard the yell from the Viking, "SILVER FURY!" 

Raven wanted to look around but she would lose her chance at the Gronckle. She ran, raising her axe, getting ready to swing. 

"Ugh!" is all that came out of her mouth. 

Raven was oblivious for a second before realizing that she had been grabbed by a dragon. Everyone stopped fighting and looked at her. She wanted to swing her axe at the beast, but from the impact of the dragon grabbing her she had dropped it! Raven looked up a saw that a Silver Fury had grabbed her!
