Chapter 6
Sapphire was worried. Even though that she promised Soren that she'll keep the book that he have found, "The Dragon Trials" a secret from everyone they cared about, she is wondering if he found out what they are.
"Oh, Soren." She muttered to herself, as that nobody wouldn't noticed her behavior. She was lost in thought, as she bumps into Lyn, the daughter of Fishlegs.
"Oh, hi, Lyn." Sapphire said to her, as the young Viking looked at her strangely. "Sapphire, is something bothering you, is it about Soren?"
She knew that she had to lie, "No, I'm not worried, I swear! " The young teen wasn't truly convinced at her lie.
"Is he in some sort of dangerous quest? C'mon, Sapphire, you could tell-"
"I absolutely can't tell you, I'm sorry!" She snapped at her friend, which caused her to be in such disbelief of her actions.
As she runs, she could hear the villagers, "Have you heard about Soren?"
"Yeah, he run away, it sounds reckless too. "
"Heck, it's like the Dragon Prince senrio all over again! Can the Haddocks give us a break once a while?!?"
Sapphire couldn't handle the bottled up emotions as she wanted to get some fresh air, and eventually, she went someplace familiar. It was the old Hidden Cove where she had learn as a child, where the Dragon Prince first discovered his connection to Toothless.
She slid down the old slope, as she looked at the reflection of the ravine. "Am I really that dumb, for not trusting Soren?"
"Something on your mind?" A voice asked, as she turns around, to see it was Emily. "Emily, it's you. "
The Deadly Nadder beams a small smile at the young Viking.
"Soren really is a lot like his father, no doubt about it. They keep their distance away from their point of view from everyone they cared about." Emily chuckled.
Sapphire said, "I still wonder how Hiccup does it. I mean of keeping his Dragon Prince alias a secret from Berk. Does it feel scary of keeping it under control?"
"Hey, Hiccup has his own quirks. It took him at least three weeks until he confess to the entire village to admit of what he has done to Toothless was a mistake. I think making a small change is a huge step."
"Really?" Sapphire asked, looking at the dragon, as the Nadder smiled at the uncertainty of the young viking.
"Just trust your feelings. If Soren entrusts you with something important, would you help him out in no matter what situation he might be in?"
The young viking thought about what she had said. Was it really ok of keeping the Dragon Trails a secret from Berk, from her family and friends?
"Oh, Soren, I hope you know exactly what you are doing." She thought , looking at the blue sky, as to wonder where the young teen would be.
Back at the forest, Soren continues walking with his new companion, Ryu. The wounds she had received from the wild dragon attack had completely healed, as Soren asked, "Are you sure that you don't want to go back to your village?
I don't mind of flying there, Ryu."
She waves, "Soren, please, I'm no rush to head back to my village, I assure you. Besides, I rather go on an adventure with you with dealing with the Dragon Trails. It seems like these trails are going to be a long trip from Berk, and you may need the company."
Soren was amazed of how calm she was, it kind of reminds him of how his relationship was with his cousin, Sapphire.
"All right, if you say so. So, what happened back there? With the book I mean?"
Soren scratched his head, "Well, it gave me a riddle. "Gone by abyss, the past awaits, the smell of ashes will awake.
Discover what it has done, or consume by hate."
Ryu seems concerned, "That's a scary riddle, Soren, but what does that all mean? It seems odd."
The young teen shrugs, "I'm just clueless as you are, Ryu. I just discovered this book by accident. I don't think my father wouldn't know a thing about this book, considering that he's the Dragon Prince."
As the two vikings continue, the young Dragon Prince used his dragon senses. He smells something.
"What is it?" Ryu asked nervously. "I think it's best that we fly from this point. I smell someone is watching us."
He transforms into his dragon self, as the young teen seems to be amazed of his abilities. "I have to adjust that you're not entirely human, Soren. "
He seems annoyed by that statement as Ryu climbs into the light blue Nightfury's back.
Back at Berk, Hiccup, Cami, and Snoutlout were in Gothi's hut. They were awaiting for the village healer to give them an insight of where Soren might be.
"I'm worried about Soren. He never been on his own." Hiccup said, making Cami looked at the Alpha, "Seriously? Hic, you were the one who been on his own, defeating two dragons, the Alpha and the Red Death!
You're a legend! And thus, you are completely worried about the your own heir who has the Dragon Prince's powers?"
"Camicazi..." Snoutlout said, touching his wife's shoulder, "Hiccup is just worried because he's not just the Alpha of Dragons, but he is also a father to Soren.
And.. let's not forget how Stoick didn't recognize his true feelings until he became the Dragon Prince.
That past never faded for him, and besides, we Vikings had an occupational hazard. "
As she was about to reply back, Gothi appeared to them. "Gothi, what is happened to my son?" Hiccup asked.
She wrote on the floor, as the group looked at it. "He's on a journey?" Cami reads.
"To where?" Snoutlout asked, curiously, but she didn't write anything else, as she was the only person of what Soren needs to do.
As the group leaves, Hiccup went to his house, where Toothless was waiting for his arrival.
"So, any luck to finding out where our little mischievous heir went off to?" He asked the Alpha.
Hiccup shook his head, as the night fury sighs, "Great. I know! Let's go find them ourselves, just the two of us! It'll be quicker and it will feel like old times!"
"But Toothless -" The Alpha begins to say, as Astrid said, "Toothless has a point. It's best you two will go on ahead with searching for our son. It's the only option we've got. Val and I will look after Berk while you two are gone."
"Are you two sure about this?" Hiccup asked nervously, as Toothless seems amused. "Hic, we're night furies.
How could anyone be feared with us? "
Hiccup groans, "Fine! You two win this one!"
Hiccup closes his eyes as he uses his Dragon Prince powers to transform into his dragon form, as with one expression with looking at his wife's eyes: "I'll be back soon."
As they left Berk, someone was watching them . "This is going to be fun, Haddock. Get ready for my revenge."
