This is an RP between me, Toothless11, UnitedMovieMaker, and Ashmore. This will take place in an alternate reality, in which many OC's have different backstories. For instance, Shade is now Toothless's son instead of his cousin, and Sirrush was born later, during the time of peace. Also, Sirrush is not yet part of the rebellion, which will be explained in a second. It is also set over a decade into the future. Now, this has a very complicated backstory, so I'm gonna post it. _________________________________________________________________________
After the defeat of the Red Death, dragons moved in with the island of Berk, starting a Golden Age for both them and the humans. For a while, they lived peacefully.
A year later, the ideals of living with dragons as partners and friends spread to the rest of the viking world. Some vikings objected to the idea, some even going as far as continuing to kill dragons anyway. But the rest of the vikings embraced it, and punished those who killed the dragons.
Six months later, more Night Furies are discovered. Toothless finds a mate, and they produce offspring together.
Over the next year, relationships between vikings and dragons reach a high point. The killing of dragons in cold blood almost completely disappears, and reports of anti-dragon protesting/extremism reaches an all-time low. The future is looking bright, but it isn't to last.
Over a year after that, the anti-dragon extremists begin a very slow but steady comeback. And their crimes are worse than ever before.
For a year after that, the peace between dragons and vikings threatens to fall apart. Hate and bloodshed spread throughout the viking world.
At the end of that year, the tensions became too much to bear, and war exploded all throughout the viking world. A group of extremist rebels, known as the Soldiers of Purity, began a violent conquest to rule the viking world. They believed that dragons were impure, demonic creatures, and the only way to get rid of them was to force all other vikings to aid them in doing so.
The war raged for three years. The Soldiers of Purity overwhelmed most of the vikings, who retreated to form a final stand at Berk. The Soldiers decimated their forces and seized control of the village, marking the fall of the last free viking village. They now ruled every living viking. When Berk refused to give up their dragons, they burned the village, and massacred the villagers and dragons. Very few made it out alive. The leader, Stoick, was killed, as well as Toothless' mate. The survivors, including Astrid and her dragon, Hiccup, Toothless, and the only surviving offspring of Toothless, go into hiding.
Hiccup and Toothless swear revenge on the Soldiers, who begin their tyrannical rule over their new Empire. For ten years, the Soldiers hunt down and kill as many dragons as they can find. Dragons are driven nearly to extinction.
While Hiccup, Toothless, and Astrid plan a rebellion, they discover two remote, undiscovered islands. Realizing the islands' potential, they begin setting up a rebel camp on one, and a Dragon Sanctuary on the other. As they work to transfer their forces to the island, they begin spreading rumors among the surviving dragons, and the humans who wish to rebel. However, before they are able to move their forces, their camp on the mainland is attack, and the rebellion is scattered. _________________________________________________________________________
Anyway, on with the RPing. We shall start on the morning before the attack on the mainland base, which will leave the rebellion scattered- but they will regroup.
_________________________________________________________________________ Shade was back on Berk. The burning buildings surrounded him, smoke filling the air. Bodies were strewn everywhere, some with body parts missing, all of them scorched and bloodied. Not all of them were human. Many were dragons. "Shade..." came a voice behind him. He turned around and saw a Night Fury, broken and dying on the ground. It was his brother. "Shade... Fly away... before... they get you..." he got out, before he lay still. "No..." he said. "NO! Don't die, please don't die!" But it was too late. His brother was gone.
He woke with a start, gasping. It took him a moment to adjust to his surroundings. He was in the rebel headquarters, safe and sound, ten years after the horrific incident he had dreamed of. He looked around, and saw most of his friends and fellow dragon soldiers sleeping around him. One other was awake. Flameskull, the boneknapper.
Flameskull was looking out the hole in the wall that served as a window. The sun was just beginning to rise, and it illuminated the sight that signaled possible impending death. He heard someone gasp behind him, and turned around to see his friend Shade. "Bad dream?" he asked.
Shade didn't reply at first. When the words registered in his brain, he replied, "Yeah. I was... I was back on Berk."
"I'm sorry. Do you want to talk about it?" asked Flameskull.
"No," Shade replied. "It's the same thing as always. What are you looking at?"
Flameskull stepped away from the window, allowing Shade to see. "Come here and see for yourself."
Shade got up, stretched his legs and wings, and walked over to the window. He looked out, and his breath caught at what he saw.
Across the fields from them was a huge camp of Imperial soldiers.
"Gods," said Shade. "They found us."
"We don't know that for sure yet," said Flameskull. "I overheard Toothless talking with Stormfly. They haven't made any move yet; they might just be passing by. They started forming there last night. Until they make a move, we aren't going to do anything except quietly ready ourselves. I was actually just about to wake you up, but I decided to have a quick look out the window," he admitted.

Silvermoon was curled up against a wall, half asleep. She could hear faint voices, which sounded like Shade's, her brother, and Falmeskull. As she woke up more, their words became more clear. She was fully awake just as Shade said "They found us". She opened her eyes instantly, lifting her head to see them looking out the window. "Huh? What's going on...?" she asked in a sleepy voice, squinting slightly at them. Then she could hear voices coming from the entrance. She turn to see Hiccup, Toothless and Misael, her rider, coming back.
"They still don't seem to be doing anything yet," Hiccup said. "They probably set up camp for the night, and will probably move on later. Our best bet would be to stay here for a while, unless we need to move out,"
As Misael passed by, Silvermoon stared at them with a confused look. He saw her, and walk up to her. "Imperial soldiers. A camp is nearby. We went out hidden to see what they're doing," he explained to her, scratching her head lightly. "But as you heard, we shouldn't worry too much. Not now at least,"
Silvermoon stood up carefully and stretched, then she walked to the window and looked out, from behind the others. And she could indeed see a camp in the distance. She too hoped they couldn't get caught.

Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid and Stormfly were walking amongst the sleeping humans and dragons, trying to carefully inform them of the situation they were in. Hiccup and Astrid were quietly trying to awaken those who slept, while Toothless and Stormfly were taking a head count to see if everyone was safely inside. So far, things seemed to be going fine. Toothless was noting that most all of those who were stationed in the headquarters were here. Shade was awake next to Flameskull, who were glancing out the window worriedly. Silvermoon was being comforted by Misael, her human friend. All seemed to be fine. Except...
Toothless scanned over the crowd once more. Something was wrong. He hoped he had just overlooked his error. He hadn't.
He glanced over to Stormfly nervously, and she came to his side. "You look Troubled," she said to him. "What's wrong?"
Toothless glanced around once more, and looked to the floor. "Ashmore and Samantha. They're both missing."
..................................................................................................
Atop the highest mountain on the west side of the valley, Samantha stood, barefoot in the snow, awaiting the first rays of the sun. The cold didn't bother her, in fact, no extreme situation did. She was just happy to be there. She glanced at Ashmore, who was seated at her side. They had been anticipating this moment for a long time now. They had done the calculations, and the conditions were perfect for what they planned to do.
Samantha looked to the sky. The horizon on the mountains across the valley were lit up like fire. The sun was just about to come up. It would be mere minutes now.
She looked at Ashmore once more. "You almost ready?" she asked him, eager with excitement.
Ashmore smiled. "As I'll ever be. The sun has almost made it's appearance." It was clear that he was excited too.
Suddenly the sky on the east side of the valley burst into shades of vibrant red, yellow and gold. the sun's arrival at the mountaintop was one of the most magnificent sights either of them had seen anywhere int heir lives.
"It's beautiful..." Samantha said under her voice, in awe of the marvel she was witnessing.
"Agreed," Ashmore said calmly, yet with excitement. He turned to Samantha. "Now, here comes the fun part!"
She looked back at him, more excitement than ever in here eyes. "Now?"
"Now," Ashmore said with a grin. with that, he lowered his back and let Samantha climb on. He lay flat on his belly, stretched out his wings and launched himself down the hill.
The two had never tried Dragonboarding before, but they had heard tales of when Hiccup and Astrid did it occasionally. And it sounded like loads of fun. So, the two had picked a spot and figured out the best weather conditions for the endeavor. The day was bright and fresh, the newly risen sun illuminating the entire mountainside it its glow. The two had agreed to to do it at sunrise, both of their favorite times of day.
Samantha had never felt anything so exhilarating (spare flying.) They swerved around trees, jumped off of snowdrifts and launched down the mountain at mach speeds. They were laughing and smiling and having one of the most wonderful times they had in ages.
They planned on making it to the bottom of the mountain and then returning to base from there, as it was inside the very mountain they were riding down and the entrance wouldn't be very far away. They had almost reached the bottom, and had only one more slight rise in the path...
..when they saw it. Stretched out in the corner of the valley was a huge camp of imperial solders. Ashmore immediately dug his claws tail, and wings into the earth, trying to stop their ride. Without missing a beat, he launched himself into the cover of trees to avoid being seen by the huge mass of enemies.
They looked out, shocked at how they had been unaware of the arrival of such danger. The two looked at each other. "Where on earth did all of those guys come from?" asked Samantha. "And how on earth did we miss them?"
Ashmore thought, and was partially stumped too. "I'm not sure where they came from. They could just be moving by and making camp. They could be gone by the end of the day. Or, they could have found us. Which would be bad."
He paused. "We didn't see them because of the rise at the bottom of the mountain. I bet you anything those back in the base can see them, but from the angle we were at earlier, we completely missed them. What matters now is that we get back to the base without them noticing us. It shouldn't be too hard, lest they've already spotted us. In which case, we're in more trouble than we could imagine. For now though, lets make it back. If we stay on the ground and keep under the trees, we should be safe.
Samantha nodded in unconscious agreement. She was still in a daze from the realization of what was going on. "Yeah..." she mumbled. "We... should get back..."
Ashmore realized that her anxiety was threatening to make an appearance. They needed to get back to base. "Just hang tight and keep calm. We'll be back there in no time."
With that, he took off through the trees in the direction of the rebel base.

Early that morning, Seth had started weapon maintenance duty. He made sure all the weapons in the armory were ready for battle. After hearing about the enemy camp being close, he had started to feel a bit anxious. Rosco heard about the news around the same time and knew Seth would feel some angst. ((Kind of a small-ish post ))

(that's okay)
Shade turned and saw Silvermoon and Toothless. He walked over to Silver. "Are you okay?" he asked.
Meanwhile , in the human portion of the base, Blackheart was just hearing the news.
"Gods..." he said. "How'd they find us?"
"We're not sure," said the viking who was relaying the news. "We don't evn know if they know we're here. But we have a plan being put together if we do. The dragons and some of the warriors are going to buy us some time while we evacuate the old, young, and sick of both races, and then they'll get out as well."
"Well it's a start," said Blackheart. "I assume we're to meet at the islands?"
"Yes," said the viking. "They aren't quite ready for us yet, but we'll have to make do. We'd have no other choice."
Blackheart nodded. "I need to go," he said. He needed to see Shade. He needed his best friend at that moment.

Misael looked out the window along with Silvermoon as well. He scratched the dragon's neck a bit, and then said "Alright, I'll be right back. I'll go and check up with the others," he said. And with that, he left. Silvermoon watched him as he left, then sat down, thinking about everything that was going on as she looked at the floor. She wished she could spend more time with the human, but as most of the dragons, she couldn't.
"Are you ok?" she heard.
Silvermoon looked up, and saw Shade walking up to her. "Oh, nothing...just, thinking about everything that's going on..." she said.
-----
Meanwhile, Misael went to check up on the human portion of their hideout. "Everytging alright?" he asked as he approached his cousin, Roran who wa busy with his things.
"Yeah I am, thanks. Just organizing my things. We heard about the news already. Some I'm just getting prepared incase something happens or is decided,"
"I see...well, good luck with that," he said as he began walkin away.
"Thanks!" Roaran answered without facing him.
Misael continued walking, and saw Blackheart walking somewhere. He decided to go greet him. He got to him and said, "Hey Blackheart. How's it goin?"

Within minutes, Samantha and Ashmore had arrived back at the Rebel Headquarters. They stopped at the well concealed cave entrance, and looked behind them to see if there was any sign that they had been spotted. Ashmore scanned the area, and there was no sign of any soldiers in pursuit of them. Which was good. They hadn't been spotted. Yet. What Ashmore did see was worse. Their tracks from running through the cover of the trees led up to their very position, fresh and bold in the snow.
Both Ashmore and Samantha face-palmed, mentally and physically respectively. "Wow. We heave REALLY screwed up big time today." Ashmore Muttered.
Samantha nodded in agreement. Their situation was getting steadily worse. If any of the Imperial Soldiers had even caught a glimpse of them, or tried to investigate, their tracks would lead them DIRECTLY back to their base. She honestly couldn't believe that they could get any stupider.
"We have got to get rid of these tracks. We at least have to buy us some time. They could be looking for us, for all we know. Even if not, we've just put a whole hell of a lot more pressure on our group. We need to get everyone out of here now." Samantha was beginning to shake with the stress of her realization.
Ashmore looked up to her. "Calm down. It'll be okay. We can move quickly. We can have the place evacuated before noon. But for now, let's throw them off a bit. You have that fancy lighter of yours?"
Understanding his intentions, Samantha shakily reached into her pocket and drew out the flint. She clicked it a few times, and in moments a fountain of blue fire poured out. She flicked her wrist in the direction of the tracks they had made and watched as the flames fell over them. Within seconds, there was not trace that they had even been there. At least, not for a hundred meter radius. If they were being followed, it would buy a bit of time, but not much.
She placed the stone back into her pocket. "Done," she whispered. Ashmore could tell things were really getting to her. They had unintentionally placed their entire community into extreme danger. They were usually more cautious than that. And he knew that she wasn't worried about herself. He knew that she was worried about her friends' safety, and that it was she who had caused the danger.
Ashmore smiled up to her, and spoke, trying to calm her down. "It's alright. What's done is done. The only thing we can do now it to get everyone to leave. Besides, it's most likely only precautionary. The soldiers probably didn't even realize that we were here."
He meant it, of course. He really did. But deep down, somewhere inside of him, he couldn't help but wonder if one of them had caught a glimpse...
But there was no time for that now. They needed to begin the evacuation. "Let's go. We'll get you inside and calmed down. We'll tell them that they need to begin to leave as quickly as possible, and we'll all be alright. I promise."
Samantha nodded slightly in agreement. She was shaking deathly, and almost out. Ashmore needed to get her inside. Next to a fire and with a little music, she could be better in an hours time.
"Let's go," he said quietly. With Samantha on his back, Ashmore turned and bounded down the tunnel towards the rebel camp, with the news that would shake them all.

Seth sat at his workbench, just thinking about the possibilities of an attack. The more he thought about it, the more he worried about it. He kept thinking at his workbench until he felt a gentle nudge. Seth turned his head and saw Rosco sitting there.
"Hey buddy. Did you hear the news?" Seth said.
Rosco nodded.
After a small pause, Seth said "...You probably guessed that I would be a bit...upset about it."
Rosco nodded slightly.
"You know me too well..." Seth said with a chuckle, patting Rosco on the head.

Toothless approached both Silvermoon and Shade. "Are you two alright?" he asked.
Shade nodded. "We're okay, just... overwhelmed."
Toothless sighed. "I'm sorry this had to happen to you," he said. "If I had it my way, the three of you would have been sent away to the Sanctuary a long time ago. At least then I would know you were safe. Speaking of which... where is your brother?"
Shade looked around for Ashmore, but couldn't find him. He shrugged. "I don't know," he said. "He's probably out with Samantha somewhere."
__________________________________________________________________
Flameskull was listening to the conversation, while at the same time keeping an eye on the humans. He preferred to keep his distance. To put it lightly, he didn't like them.
Once there was a lull in the conversation, he approached Toothless. "Toothless," he said.
Toothless turned to look at the massive Boneknapper. "Flameskull!" he said. "How are you?"
"I'm alright," he said. "I would be better if those apes weren't gathering across the field from us of course. But anyway, I was wondering what the plan of action was."
"If they march on us, we'll blow the horn," said Toothless. "Then, we're to report to our battle stations, while the humans work on evacuating."
"Of course the humans would take the easy job," Flameskull snorted.
"Hey, they're much more capable of that job than we are," said Toothless.
Flameskull snorted. "I suppose you're right," he said. "But I still don't like 'em." _______________________________________________________________
Blackheart turned to see Misael talking to him. "Not good," he said. "I'm sure you've heard the news. I need to see Shade right now, so if you'll excuse me... We'll talk later." He turned away and walked where he was going.
He felt bad for dismissing his friend like that, but he wasn't in the mood to talk.
He finally arrived in the dragon's quarters, and saw Shade with Silvermoon, Toothless and Flameskull. He wondered where Ashmore was, but more than that he was relieved to see Shade.
"Shade!" he called. The Night Fury turned to see him and bounded over. Blackheart embraced the dragon and breathed heavily. "This sucks," he said.

"Yeah...but we're all right," Silvermoon said, agreeing with Shade. She listened to what Toothless said about wishing that she and her brothers were at the sancuary already. It would be better. At least, they were going to head over there soon.
"...Where is your brother?" Toothless has asked.
After Shade answered, she said "They'd better not get in trouble out there..." After a silence, Flameskull came and darted talking with Toothless.
-------
Misael watched Blackheart as he left, slightly confused. He sighed, undertstanding that he didn't feel good at that moment. Neither did he, and he couldn't help but feel like he wanted to be with his own dragon as well. He hadn't spent much time with her the past few years due to everything that was going on.
At that moment, he began feeling a bit guilty again because of that. He stood there for a moment, watching Blackheart as he reached his friend, an then he decided to go back with Silvermoon.

Ashmore was in the main cavern within seconds. He let Samantha down off his back, and lit a quick fire in front of her. He knew the flames would soothe her for awhile. He would see that she would be calmed down. But first, he had dire news to give.
He spotted Toothless. He knew that his father would be disappointed in his lack of caution, but he was the best person to tell the news to. He would get everyone into action. He bound towards his father.
Toothless turned to see Ashmore with a look of relief on his face. "There you are!" he exclaimed. "I've been worried sick! I couldn't find you anywhere, and with those soldiers out there, I was beginning to fear the worst. You... you do realize that those people are out there, right?"
"Unfortunately, yes. And Even more Unfortunate, I have some bad news to relay to you."
Ashmore told what he and Samantha had been doing to Toothless. He also informed about their realization of the Soldier's location, and their potential sighting.
Toothless didn't know whether to be scared or furious. It was a mix of both. "I'm disappointed in you son. You've risked all of our lives in here with you ignorance. This isn't like you!"
Ashmore was sorrowful. "I know, father. However, It could have happened to anyone. I thought that we would be safe here, and a little fun was made dangerous. Nobody, not me, not you, could have predicted the arrival of those soldiers. Whether they saw Samantha and I is unknown. What I do know is this: We need to start getting people out of here. Fast. Even if we were unseen, there would be a high chance that they could catch on sooner or later."
Toothless nodded. "I understand. Your error couldn't be helped. And I agree with you on getting people out of here. We were in the process of moving the ones unfit for battle as we speak. I'll relay the news that it should be done faster. As for you, and many others who are fit, you will all be causing a distraction for the soldiers so that we can get a good lead on them once everyone is safely out. One that is done, we'll make out getaway too. Are you and Samantha up for it?"
"Of course." Ashmore replied. "We'd be happy to help. But first,I need to tend to Samantha. She's in one of her nervous states. She realized the danger that she may have unintentionally put us in. It's weighing heavily on her. Once I can calm her down, I'm sure that she'll be ready to help. She'd do anything to make up for our mistakes."
Toothless nodded. "Very well then. Go tend to her. Be ready for battle in an hours time. It shouldn't take us longer than that to get everyone out. I'll see you then."
They turned in their separate directions. Toothless paused and looked back. "Ashmore?" he called.
Ashmore returned the glance. "Yes father?"
"Be careful. You sometimes worry me sick with your antics. I only want you to be safe. Especially in these dark times."
Ashmore smiled. "I'll be sure to."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About half an hour later, Ashmore was sitting next to Samantha in front of the fire. With his wing around her, he was softly humming a simple tune that always seemed to calm Samantha in time s of need. She was getting out of her trance.
She cleared her eyes and looked around. Ashmore noticed. "Feeling better?"
She answered slowly, voice still slightly shaky. "That depends. Has the news been out, and is everyone getting out?"
Ashmore nodded. "It's happening as we speak. They should all be out soon." He paused. "By the way, Toothless has requested us to be part of a "Distraction." When everyone is just about out, he wants a group of soldiers to give one final distraction to buy us more time. You feel up for the task?"
Samantha suddenly looked focused. "Am I? Of course! Anything to help everyone out, especially after our mistake. Just tell me when we need to go. I'll be ready.
Ashmore smiled. He knew her too well. She'd be willing to do anything to help her friends. Same as he would. He glanced down at her. She had relaxed, now out of her trance completely. She had taken out her blade, Pyra, and was fiddling around if the fire with it. When the flames stuck, she would draw with them on the floor in front of her. Things almost seemed to be peaceful and alright...
...when suddenly sound echoed from outside. Both Samantha and Ashmore heard it, as well as many in the cavern. They all were alert. Samantha looked up to Ashmore, a mix of curiosity and slight fear in her eyes. "What... exactly was that?"
Ashmore returned the worried glance, know exactly what it was. "It was a horn, from the Imperial Soldiers. A signal. They Know."
*Also, on a side note, I'll have Klink's artwork up momentarily.

A faint noise was heard in the cavern.
Seth froze in shock. "Oh no...That is not good." He said, trembling. Seth could feel his heart beating faster in his chest and a difficulty to breathe.
Rosco tried to be brave for Seth and nudged him to get him back into focus.
"Okay, we have got to get to the others." Seth said, trying to forget his fear. He grabbed a sword and sheath. After hastily putting on the sheath, Seth ran for the others. Rosco followed close behind.

Beside them, Ashmore and Samantha ran into the cave. Shade turned to watch, and Blackheart broke the embrace, instead resting on of his hands on the dragon's neck. They watched as Ashmore lit a fire for a very shaken up Samantha, and then went to Toothless. The two dragons conversed. Blackheart couldn't understand what they were saying, but Toothless seemed upset, and he could tell Shade was becoming agitated.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Shade flicked his tail and warbled. Hold on.
Blackheart waited for Ashmore to leave Toothless's side, and then turned to Shade. The Night Fury uttered a series of warbles and trills, while making strange motions with his claws and body. This was his way of communicating. Blackheart didn't possess the unsettling interpretation skills that Samantha did, so he had to rely on his understanding of Shade's sign language to communicate. Fortunately, after a couple years of living with the Night Fury, he had perfected the art. That had been a long time ago.
He understood what Shade was saying. About what Ashmore and Samantha had done.
"Okay," said Blackheart. "I need to go get Fury." Fury was his sword, named after the Night Fury dragon. Beautiful, but deadly. And it was a fine sword. "I'd feel much better if you were with me. But if you want to go comfort Ashmore..."
Shade got up, and started to walk towards the door. We need to get ready, he said. I'll talk to him later.
On their way, Blackheart turned to Shade. His dragon. His best friend. His brother.
"We're gonna get through this," he said. "And when we do, we'll go to the Sanctuary. And we're going to spend a lot more time together."
Shade nodded. I'd like that, he said.
Blackheart stopped. "I'm sorry we haven't seen enough of each other lately," he said. "This war is hard on all of us."
It's okay, Shade said. I understand.
"Thanks," said Blackheart. "But it's not okay." He hugged his friend again. "I'm gonna win this war," he said. "For you. I won't let them get to you."
Shade responded by wrapping his wings around his rider. They stood there for a few more seconds, before they kept on their way.
They passed Misael, walking towards the main hall. "You might want to grab your sword, brother," Blackheart advised. _____________________________________________________
About a half hour passed. Shade and Blackheart had returned a few minutes ago, and were around the fire Ashmore had built. Blackheart was busy shapening Fury.
Flameskull was looking out the opening towards the army. Something was happening there, he could tell. He could see movement, and lots of it.
Just as his suspicions were growing, he heard a noise. A loud horn, coming from across the field. As he listened, a cheer rose up, and a huge mass of soldiers starting moving.
Towards them.
"Gods help us," he breathed. He backed away from the window and sounded the alarm. "THEY'RE COMING!" he roared as loud as he could.

As Misael was walking back to where the dragons were, he was able to see Ashmore and Samantha coming from the entrance. Right then he already had a bad feeling. Blackheart and Shade came by, "You might want to grab your sword, brother," Blackheart said to him. Misael stared at him for a moment, and then nodded. He had left some of his equipment back where Silvermoon was. He was heading there either way.
Silvermoon carefully paid attention as Toothless explained what Ashmore and Samantha had done. "Hoe could they have done this??? They put all of us to risk!, she thought worriedly. She would go and talk seriously wit her younger brother right then, but she decided against it, seeing as he was trying to make his own rider feel better. She sat down once more. Her brothers were busy, and so was her dad. She just wished her rider was there with her at the moment...
"Something wrong Silver?" she heard, as she felt a hand gently scratching her neck.
Silvermoon turned to face Misael, and immediately nudged him Gently. Misael gave her a hug, "It's ok...I don't feel that good either," he said. After a few seconds he stepped back. "I know I've said this already...But sorry, really...I haven't Been with you as much as before..."
"It's alright. It's not your fault. I know how you feel," Silvermoon answered with a purr as she nudged him once again. She looked at him in the eye, almost having a sad expression, feeling the same as her rider.
"Thanks, Silvermoon. I promise, that hopefully we'll be able to spend more time together once we get out of here,"
"Hopefully, we will" Silvermoon nodded, and smiled slightly. A smile which made Misael feel warmer inside. He hugged her once more, "Things will get better. You'll see. I won't let them do anything to you. I Dont know what I would even do if something happened to you. We will win this. No matter what."
They both stayed like that for a few minutes, both of them feeling better with eachother's company. Then Misael stepped back and sighed. "Anyways...What's going on with Ashmore and Samantha? I saw them coming from the outside while I came over here..."
Silvermoon changed her mood for a moment as she explained to him with different expressions and noises. It wasn't at all Hard to understand her.
"I see...They definitely made a big mistake there," he said. Now he knew what Blackheart meant. He walked over to the wall where the sword that he had made himself was. He went and grabbed it, tying it onto his waist belt. He walked back to Silvermoon, "We have to start moving. Better be prepared incase something happens," he said. Silvermoon nodded and stood up, and they both began to walk to where everyone else was.
----------------------
About half an hour later, Misael and Silvermoon were also sitting with the small group, waiting for further instructions. When suddeny they hear an ear shattering roar, that even freightend him, coming fom Flameskull.
Something was happening. He and Silvermoon immediately turned and stood up. "Oh Gods...No," Misael said quietly.
"They found us..." Silvermoon said, her eyes turned into slits.
"We've got to move fast," he said as he began heading towards the maim hall. Silvermoon followed after him.

Klink's eyes opened with a jolt.
He had been sleeping soundly in his cave, quite peacefully in fact (a rarity for him). That was, until he felt a presence. Small, but deadly. Humans. He could feel their feet upon the earth, coming closer to his den. And they weren't just regular humans. They were Soldiers of Purity.
Klink had been in hiding ever since Berk had fallen. It had been years since he had met with another dragon, and had only seen faint traces of their existance. If he didn't know any better, he'd think he would be going crazy. It was a part of the truth, though. Every month or so, he would burrow his way to another safe spot, covering his tracks, so that the Soldiers couldn't track him. Any that were unlucky enough to find him were destroyed. Painfully.
Klink Coiled into the shadows of his cave. He felt the footsteps of the Soldiers. There weren't many. Maybe five or so. They seemed to be talking of a camp, where more of their kind had gathered. They must have been on their way to that location. Klink chuckled. They would never arrive. "And thusss, it beginsss," He hissed to himself. Silently, he opened his jaws and burrowed his way into the rock. Like a bullet, he tunneled his way to the exact point below the Soldiers. He was silent. They would never see him coming.
With jaws, open wide, he ascended. With a crash he broke through the surface of the ground, sending debris and soldiers in every direction. The soldiers were immobilized with fear and shock. Before they could realize what was happening, much less get to their feet, Klink had already snapped one up into the rotaing teeth of his inner jaw. One down. He rattled his spines menacingly. He broke his tail out from under the earth, and snapped it like a whip into another soldier. His body ripped and was sent over the side of a nearby ravine. Only three left.
The soldiers had regained their ground and had advanced. Two charged at him from behind, brandishing a spear and axe. With one breath, a ring of intense blue fire erupted from his jaws, incinerating the two soldiers where they stood. One left.
Klink towered over their ruins, still half imbedded in the ground. He twisted to the last soldier. The man had realized that he had entered a fight he could not win, and was trying to escape. Fool, klink thought. He uprooted himself, and charged after the soldier, catching him within seconds. He coiled his massive body around the human, so many times until he was completely out of sight. Then, he squeezed. There was a snap, and he whipped the dead soldier from within his clutches. End of the Match.
Klink turned around, waiting for his heart to settle. He could get a little battle crazy at times. But for good cause. he thought, after remembering what they had done to his homeland. He had swarn vengance on tham all, and would not stop until every last one of them lay dead.
His heart settled, and he got a good look at his surroundings. There was a slight snowfall the previous night, which had now been stained red with the ruin of his enemies. Pity, he thought. He was fond of the slight quirks of nature such as the snowfall, and didn't like to see them tainted. Not that there was much he could do about it.
He slithered out towards the ravine and looked out on the rising sun. It was a beautiful sight, and one that he always loved to see. Though, today, something different caught his eye. At the base of the far mountain, was a camp. More Soldiers. They must have gotten there overnight. The ones I saw earlier must have been trying to get there, but took the wrong route. Klink scowled. This wasn't good. He hadn't seen that many Soldiers gathered in one place for a long time. Not since the Massacre of those on Berk. Somthing Big was about to go down.
Klink knew that he had to do something. He couldn't let them get away with doing something as horrible as they had previously done. He would go down and fight, if it came to it. But first, to find their motive.
With a rattling of spines, Klink dived down into the earth, tunneling his way towards the sighted Soldier Camp.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ashmore and Samantha sprang to their battle positions. They were stationed just inside the main entrance to their fortress. Alongside them were other soldiers and familiar faces, all of whom were mentally prepping themselves for the upcoming battle.
Samantha drew out her blade, Pyra. She didn't know if she was going to get much of a chance to use it, as she would be riding with Ashmore mainly. However, if it came to it, she would have a good weapon. Not to mention a reliable way to control the flames she ever-so-loved to spawn. She pulled out the lighter and ignited Pyra, and watched as the blue flames danced across the blade.
The sounds from outside were becoming louder. The soldiers had begun to move in the direction of their hideout. They would need to act soon. Just a few last minuets to provide an escape for those who hadn't yet evacuated.
She glanced to Ashmore, who was standing beside her. They exchanged reassuring glances and looked back to the front of the cave where Hiccup and Toothless were now standing. They were about to give a brief, pre-battle speech, for both humans and dragons to hear. This gesture sent the same signal to everyone. The battle was about to begin.
Klink's entrance to the story was mainly copied from the Old Sanctuary thread, but with a few minor adjustments. if it ain't broke, why fix it?
Also, if it's too graphic, please let me know so I can change it.
To toothless11: Out of Curiosity, is Sulphurwing appearing in the RP? And if she is, will she be partaking in the battle? I have a fun idea for the future of the RP that would be fun to see her in.
