A cold dreaded night fell upon the two Fire Fury sisters as they flew towards Huttsgalor, threatened by their father to kill Cutter and Aggro's three eggs.
The whole island was asleep, the Vikings were snoring, the dragons were rumbling, and the pile of broken Mechano Dragon pieces sat quietly at the edge of the village. All was still and all was quiet.
"We can't do this now! We'll wait in the morning." Cinda urged Laburn.
"Yours just trying to stall us... and I agree." Laburn said and flew past the Roost. The two Fire Fury sisters landed in the forest and hid till the light of dawn.

Summer's yellow eye opened slowly. She groggily got up and stretched, yawning. She glanced at Aggro and Cutter, who were curled protectively around their three eggs. Summer noticed with sorrow that the third smallest egg was even more pale looking.
Parrot squawked himself out of a dream and got up, wings and scales ruffled.
"You ok?" Summer asked.
"Yea..." Parrot sighed, "Just a dream."
Then Summer noticed something, "Hey, did Winger, Burple, and Aura ever come back?"
"I don't think so." Parrot muttered nervously.
"Hey, wake up." Summer nudged Cutter and Aggro.
Cutter's eyes flew open and he got up instantly, hissing and in a defensive pose. He calmed down when he realized who was there.
"Sorry, just instincts I guess." Cutter apologized.
"Well my instincts are telling me to go back to sleep." Aggro growled grumpily.
"Winger, Burple, and Aura are still gone." Summer told them.
"Oh, they might still be trying to free Melodia from the netting, ropes, and chains they found her tangled in." Cutter looked at her.
"How did Melodia get in that situation?" Summer asked.
"She wouldn't say." Cutter yawned and got up, he glanced at his eggs and Aggro before flying over to the fish barrel.
"Um, maybe we should check." Parrot hopped around nervously.
"Yea, come on guys. Let's go out and wait for Leyla to get up." Summer walked to the sleep cave door.
"No way I am not leaving me eggs." Aggro growled.
"Their safe, I promise, nothing would hurt them here." Summer dipped her head and pushed the sleep cave door open, "We can even leave the door open."
"Fine." Aggro reluctantly got up and walked out with Cutter and Parrot.
As they scanned the sky for anyone, Parrot through he saw a flash of red and gold scales, but when he turned around they were gone. Figuring it was just his nervous self getting the best of him, he tried to ignore it and continue looking.
"I thought they'd be here by now." Cutter frowned, he quickly glanced at his eggs real quick and then back. It took him a second to realized than when he had looked the eggs weren't there.
"Hold on a second!" Cutter raced back into the cave and stared down at the empty nest, "WHERE DID THE EGGS GO?"
Aggro whirled around in surprised and joined him. Her scales started to heat up with fury and she roared. Lightning crackled around Cutter's horns and his spikes stood on edge, ready to launch at any moment.
Summer and Parrot looked at eachother, eyes wide.
"Uh, what's going on?" Leyla asked as she sleepily made her way down the trap door and into the sleep cave.
"The eggs are gone!" Summer explained as Cutter and Aggro raced past her, searching for thier eggs.
"Oh no!" Leyla ran over and hopped on Summer's back. She turned over and looked at Parrot, "Come on!"
"What? Me? Ok..." Parrot hesitantly flew after them as they took off and started to hunt for the missing eggs.

Meanwhile two certain Fire Furys were at Boiling Springs Valley, the eggs in thier claws.
"Are you sure..." Cinda glanced at Laburn.
"Dad is gonna... he's gonna... it's too late to turn back now. Hurry! They can't know it's us!" Laburn held the largest eggs in her claws and walked towards the nearest geyser.
It wasn't long however before Cutter's super vision spotted them. They turned around as they saw two dragons race towards them at frightening speed. One with fire trailing from their scales and the other with lightning cracking around his horns.
"Oh no!" Cinda exclaimed and gripped the pale egg and the dark gray egg harder in her claws.
Aggro halted in the sky as she stared down at them is pure shock, "Laburn? Cinda? WHAT?"
Cutter however, did not stop, he didn't know Laburn and Cinda as well as she did so he didn't care. He hissed and fire and lightning trails from the edges of his mouth.
Laburn and Cinda abandoned the eggs and started to make a fly for it. Cutter relentlessly chased after them, his half skrill speed and pure fury making him gain on them fast. Eventually Aggro snapped out of it and joined in the chase.

Meanwhile Leyla, Summer, and Parrot were trying to figure out where Aggro and Cutter had zipped off too. They caught sight of Elbone signaling to them from down below in the village.
"I think I saw them go... uh... that way-ish." Elbone pointed to the direction of Boilign Springs Valley.
"Show us!" Leyla demanded and nodded to Parrot. As if knowing what the nod meant Parrot swooped down and picked up Elbone.
"Woah! Uh. That way." Elbone pointed once agian.
Leyla on Summer and Parrot carrying Elbone raced towards Boiling Springs Valley as fast as possible. Summer and Parrot were out of breath when they reached it and saw what was happening.
The mother and father instincts of dragons had completely taken over Aggro and Cutter and they were now quickly catching up to... Laburn and Cinda! Who happened to be trying to fly away but the walls of Boiling Springs Valley had them boxed in.
Summer and Parrot gasped and stopped and hovered, geysers shooting boiling water up all's round them.
Cutter's spike shot and Aggro's fire blast hit Cinda at once and she wean down. Laburn noticed her sister had fallen and screamed in panic and flew down after her.
With a merciless instinct-driven heart and teeth bared, Cutter and Aggro were mere seconds away from ending it...
Before something not-so-miraculous happened.
The ground shook like the whole world was being violently being thrown back in forth. Cracks spread like fire throughout the ground and the noise of the earth shuttering became unbearable.
The ground split open into a perfect round hole as a snow white dragon, splattered with the blood of her victims rose out of the ground, sharp teeth gleaming, red eyes glowing. Everyone looked up at the deadly beast, mouths open in shock.
BoulderDeath.
The final death train had arrived.
The End
