Take to the Skies {HTTYD} {closed}

Ciera woke to the sight of her albino night fury above her. The dragon puzzled her hand as she blinked awake, waiting until she sat up to dash over to the window that had been enlarged to allow Frost access in and out.


"You want to take the equipment out for a spin?" Ciera asked, laughing as the dragon shook her head vigorously. "Well then, what are we waiting for?" Ciera asked as she walked over and opened the window.


Frost jumped out and glided away before coming and flying parallel to the building so she could jump on. Ciera hopped out and caught the dragon's neck, placing her feet in the stirrups immediately. She let Frost go high enough up so that they would have time to recover if they faltered before pulling a pin out and releasing the secondary wings.


The wings unfolded and expanded, holding parallel to the main wings. She waited until Frost was ready to bank before pulling out another pin and letting the wings angle themselves downward to assist banking. Monumental happy that they had worked, she put the wings into landing position and let Frost come in to land next to Red. "Hey!" She called as they approached.


She had originally designed the wings to increase manueverability and speed, which they had.
 
Red was trying to teach Phoenix how to draw, but that utterly failed when she kept grabbing the stick and running around with it. He turned around when he heard his name being called by a familiar voice; "hey Ciera!"


Phoenix kept the stick in her mouth and trotted beside the boy, tilting her head at Frost. "Those look good." Red nodded his head towards the extra set of wings approvingly. Phoenix went back to running around with the stick in her mouth and Red tugged at his hair. "Why do I have to own the mental pets?" Of course, he was kidding when he said this to himself.


He walked over to his saddle that was laying on the ground and he sat down on it steadily. "So whatcha up to?"
 
Ciera dismounted Frost and folded up the wings. She tied them securely and made sure they wouldn't come loose before walking over to Red with Frost in tow. She grinned at the success of her machinery.


"Just testing out the new wings." Ciera replied. "What she you guys doing?" She said as she nodded to Phoenix. Frost had taken the stick from Phoenix and was now drawing swirl around the other dragon.
 
"Well, I was trying to teach Phoenix to write. Then she made a circle so I tried to gether to draw and now," Red squinted his eyes at Phoenix whom was now staring blankly at Frost. "She was playing with the stick." He rolled his eyes and sighed, "she needs help."


Phoenix had spread her wings and flapped them, but she didn't lift into the air. She tilted her head and squaked at the swirl that was being drawn around her. Red shook his head and turned his attention back to Ciera. "I need to take her out for a flight, but I really want to go somewhere new." He patted the side of his saddle and looked back over at Phoenix who was now bouncing around.


Red glanced at Ciera with a playful smile. "Want to switch dragons?" He smiled and watched the dragons play together.
 
Ciera laughed and said, "Not a chance." She gazed at Frost for a moment before looking back to Red. "Why don't we go find somewhere new?" She suggested.


Frost's head perked up as Ciera mentioned finding somewhere new. She dropped the stick and flared her wings, half hopping-half gliding over. "Show off." Ciera laughed.
 
"Are we going to get lost?" Red anticipated the answer, and he was all for it either way. Phoenix trotted after Frost but then stopped at the boy and placed her muzzle under the saddle, lifting it up slightly.


Red gasped and gripped onto the dragon's snout horn. "Wait, wait!" He laughed and turned his attention back to Ciera. "So, what's the deal hun?"
 
"Does it matter if we get lost?" Ciera replied with a mischievous sparkle in her eyes. She latched the secondary wings back up to Frost's primary sails and then connected that to the saddle before looking it over one last time and hopping on.


She glanced up at the sky. It seemed clear with minimal clouds. The few clouds that were there indicated good tail winds in higher altitudes. "You ready?" She questioned.
 
Red stood up with a grin and picked the saddle up, placing it on Phoenix's back as she lowered down. "Well, it's not like we haven't gotten lost before." He tightened the girth and clapped his hands together as an accomplishment. He swung one leg over Phoenix and shifted in the seat until he was comfortable. "Ready?"


Phoenix spread her wings and squirmed in excitement, she was ready to go. Red was honestly glad that she didn't take the stick with her, but he knew better then to say anything; her excitement was keeping her thoughts focused onto something other then that stupid stick.
 
Ciera grinned. "Ready." She lightly patted Frost's side before quickly grabbing the Night Fury's spines that protruded from the back of her head, knowing what was coming next.


On cue, Frost shot up into the air like a bullet. Her wings flapped effortlessly as they went higher and higher, faster and faster until they finally burst through the cloud layer with Red and Phoenix shortly behind. The tail winds immediately took hold and rocketed them through the air.
