(That's an animation using the song Legends Never Die for Whiplash's HTTYD Fanfic (the only reason this story exists today) Take Flight on a Dragon that I did. I'm super proud of it, and I definitely recommend looking at her story! It sure makes you eager to know what happens next!)
Zephyr coughed again, and Nuffink rolled over to look at her while Whiplash lifted his head and tilted it worriedly.
It was the middle of the night, and though Zephyr's injury had stop bleeding, it hadn't been treated and most likely could be fatal if it wasn't soon.
A small sound came from the front of the prison cells, making everyone turn her head, and Zephyr lift it a little. "Hello?" Whiplash tilted his head with narrowed eyes. He let out a muffled snort, and Robbie, who was chained to the wall of another cell, managed to look out with wide, orange eyes.
Who's that? Whiplash asked, flicking his chained tail toward the sleek light blue-and-purple dragon that came into the jail.
"Who are you?" Whip whispered. She turned her head to him and tilted it with wide, yellow, curious eyes. "I'm Silverwaters." She replied. "Robbie's friend." Her curious features softened. "He's okay, isn't he?" Whip nodded, pressed himself against the bars, and gesturing toward Robbie's cage with one arm, which was slid through the bars.
Silverwaters nodded back and ran over to his cage. She tilted her head but clearly was unable to figure out whatever Robbie was trying to communicate. Whiplash grunted, and Silverwaters turned back. "Can you please get us out of here?" Whip asked.
"I don't know about all of you..." Silverwaters said, shuffling nervously on her feet as her orange eyes glinted anxiously. "Jay would be really mad - but if I get one of you out they might think it was Orca!" She perked up, then frowned. "Although I guess she wouldn't be happy about it."
"We can save her, too, and you." Whip said. "If you could just free Robbie's mouth, if nothing else." Silverwaters tilted her head, then her eyes widened with an understanding gleam. She nodded. "Got it, I'll be right back." She turned and raced out the entrance.
Hours went by, and there was no sign of her. "I knew we couldn't trust that dragon!" Loutnut snapped. "Any dragon dumb enough to befriend a Changewing can't be trusted." "What are you saying?" Ac hissed, and suddenly, the party whirled around.
Robbie let out a muffled grunt of delight, and Ac's face lit up from the furious expression she wore moments before. She raced toward his cage and unlocked it. "Where's Silverwaters?" Whip asked. "The blue dragon?" Savva asked, rushing in after Ac as Lunala split their cage's bars in half with her tail. "Led us to a key, ran off. Probably didn't want to be caught."
Whip sighed in relief as Robbie and Lunala started freeing the other dragons. "See, Loutnut? I knew she could be trusted." He said with a cheeky grin. "Look out, guys! Your Guardian Angel is here!" Robbie chortled, spitting acid on the cage bars and the dragon's chains as Lunala freed their mouths and Whiplash's tail.
"Pfft, please, like you didn't get caught with us." Lunala snapped, swinging her tail toward his head. He ducked with a glare, and vanished, finishing with the other dragons. "Don't remind him, he can't take the blow to his self-esteem." Whiplash teased, earning himself a hiss from a patch of air as the Jr. Riders escaped the prison, Shadow and Nuffink supporting Zephyr on Whiteout.
They lifted into the air and flew towards the Edge, not willing to risk being caught again. "Is Zephyr okay?" Savva asked. "Yes." Zephyr groaned stubbornly. "No!" Whip called back, earning himself a glare. "Her shoulder wound hasn't been treated. We need to treat it or -"
Ac glared at him, giving him the impression that he shouldn't say anything more. Savva filled in the blank space for him. "We have to treat it."
