(THE STORY OF HOW MEELO AND HER MOTHER SURVIVED)
(YOUNG MEELO'S POV)
I was watching my mother pace around the cramped ship cell. She was thinking of ways to escape.
"Alright, ya ugly vermin! Time to get you moved into the main base. Hahaha, this is gonna be good." Snickered a guard as he walked by.
After him came the boy and his father. Mother stopped pacing and growled at them as they approached us.
"How are going to get this one out? We couldn't even take her baby away after it was healed." Viggo questioned his father.
"I'm not, you are." Smiled the old man.
"What? How?" He looked scared.
"If your ever going to be a leader then I need to know you could handle the job." He growled.
"What if I die?" He looked at my mothers teeth.
"Then you'll only be remembered as a disgrace to my family! If you can't capture her then you'll never be the leader." He spoke coldly.
For a moment I felt pity for the young man, then he spoke.
"I'll do it! Even if I have to kill her." He looked at my mom then me.
I ran up from the back of the cage and squeaked out a roar at the men
"Meelo, go back! I won't let them get you." She grunted, trying to nudge me back.
"And I wont let them get you! Not like how they did to father and Peni!" I Growled.
My mother stood shocked for a moment before smiling and giving me a warm lick over the face.
"Your still healing, can I get them this time?" She smiled.
I knew she wasn't really asking, but she was right about my wound.
"No." Although this was still my answer. "You've fought with wounds before. Dad told me in one of his stories. So I'll fight too!"

"Wow. I'm not sure if you were being stupid or brave." Chuckled my sister.
"I was being brave!" I growled. "Now, shut up! It's about to get good."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Meelo, you ca-" Began my mother.
"I'm gonna help! For Peni." I said.
My mother was about to retort, but the young boy spoke first.
"I'm ready father, open the gate!"
We looked over and saw that Viggo now had a sword in his hands, and it was pointed at Mom. It had a black handle with red gems, part of it extended down half the sword.
The gate to our cage opened slowly. When it was wide enough, I slipped under.
"Meelo, no! Wait till the gate is wide enough for me!" Begged my mother.
I ignored her warnings and ran at the boy. I was only about three feet long but I could smell fear coming from the boy in huge waves.
He pointed his sword at me. I used my plasma blast to knock it out of his hands. My blasts aren't anywhere near deadly yet. The best they could do would be to knock him off his feet.
He kicked out with his right foot and I went sliding away. I bumped in to something hard behind me. I looked over my shoulder and saw Mom. She gave me a single sniff to make sure I was okay then looked back at Viggo.
She slithered towards him slowly. Like a snake stalking it's prey. He stumbled back and tripped on a loose board. He was terrified. He knew this was the end. But in one quick movement he reached out and grabbed his sword.
Now they were circling each other. I was about to join in when someone lifted me up by the tail. It was Viggo's dad. He placed a muzzle on me and threw me away from my mother. I was immediately picked back up by a hunter. He silently walked off with me in his hands.
I couldn't call for my mother because of the muzzle. I violently stared scratching at random air. I was trying to find something to latch on to and dig into with my long, sharp claws. I hit a fleshy substance and dug in.
"AGGHAA!" The hunter screamed out as blood ran down his leg.
Luckily my mother heard the commotion and came running. She left Viggo shaking on the floor with a bad gash in his arm. She caught Viggo's father by surprise and knocked him over. The hunter limped away as soon as he saw her coming. I was dropped on the floor but quickly recovered and followed Mom out onto the deck.
On the deck were even more hunters. They had cages of many different dragons and were moving them onto an island.
They all gasped when they saw us. Arrows were launched at us from all directions. My mom grabbed my scruff and zoomed into the sky. We were soon above he cloud cover.
"It's okay, Mom. I can fly by myself now." I said.
She gently let go and I tiredly flapped beside her. I could tell she was just, if not more, as tired as me. We'll have to land soon. I thought, worried about how fast they could travel and whether or not they would find us while we sleep.
But, we didn't land. Mom wouldn't allow it. She said that it was much to dangerous and that she would not let me die too.
"Let me carry you so you can get some rest, you desperately need it." She said as the quarter moon rose steadily in the already-star-filled sky.
"No, you need it more then I do. If you stay awake then so do I. And if I were big enough, I'd carry you." I stated, with a long yawn at the end.
"I promise we'll land soon, once we're far enough away from those retched people." She said.
"No, I'll keep flying. Got to make sure the hunters don't catch up, you might get hurt." I said.
"Very well." She spoke with pride and amusement in her voice.

"And after that we kept flying. All the way here. Mom died seven years later, then four years after that, you arrived." Said Meelo, finishing up her story.
"Wow, I-I can't believe all that happened." I was in awe.
"I'm just glad you came back, Peni." She smiled.
"No. Call me Whisper, please. I think it would make Toothless a little less homesick, his best friend Hiccup gave it to me." I said.
"Oh... Ok then, Whisper it is." She smiled.
