I'm going to leave the Hive for a little bit, Toothless thought, sending his message to the Queen. Is that okay? "Okay" Firestorm said. "Try to be back before the sun is up"

Toothless nodded his head. I will. Then he raced through the tunnels and soared out of the nest.

A light snow began to fall as he flew. Toothless headed for an island that he sometimes came to when he got some free time. It was called the Coldwind Wastes, a fitting name. Hardly anything ever lived there.

That was why Toothless liked it. There he could be alone with his own thoughts. There the Queen couldn't reach him, probe into his mind, control him. There he was free.

The snow crunched beneath his feet as he landed. The landscape was still and peaceful. Toothless wandered around aimlessly until he heard a noise. Something was behind him.

He spun around, a plasma blast hissing up in his mouth.

He saw a black dragon standing behind him.

A Night Fury.

She was a dark grey, lighter in color than he was

She was a dark grey, lighter in color than he was. She had bright blue eyes that glittered in the moonlight.

Toothless was too stunned to speak. I – I – I – I thought I was the only one.

But I'm not.

The other Night Fury seemed to be thinking the same thing.

"I'm Toothless" Toothless told the Night Fury. "Who are you?"

"I – I'm Electra" She said. "N-nice to meet you, Toothless. Uh – I have to go."

"Wait!" Toothless called after her. "Stay a little longer! I want to talk to you!"

Electra stopped and turned around. "I have to go" she repeated. "I have to stay on the move"

"Why?" Toothless asked.

"I'm not safe" Electra told him. "I'm being hunted. By Grimmel, the Night Fury killer."
