Aurora didn't remember at all what had happened. All she knew was that one minute she had been in the cave with Toothless and her little hatchlings and the next she was standing there on a strange beach, her mate having scales torn off and scratches on his hide, wounded by what she could only guess was another dragon. Immediately she was alert and looking around, trying to find the dragon that had dared to hurt her mate. Only when she looked around the only other dragon in sight was a dragon much too large to have made such the sized bites on Toothless. She grew extremely confused and as she moved she could feel her own wounds, not many, but noticeable. She sniffed at her own wounds and was surprised to find that the wounds on er smelt like Toothless. When approached by Toothless she curiously sniffed at his wounds as well and found his smelt like her. So, they had fought each other? Had she attacked him? Was that why she didn't remember anything? Whining softly her ear flaps flattened against her head and she nuzzled herself against him as if to ask forgiveness for anything she had done, when she heard Hiccup say her name.

She looked over and her eyes widened when she saw Castiel, the back of her head with blood on it and limp in the boy's arms. She quickly approached and began sniffing and nudging worriedly, and was relieved to see the girl breathing. So many worried thoughts ran through her mind. What all had she done? How had Catiel gotten hurt Where were her babies. At the thought of her babies, she perked up with worry until Hiccup stated they were fine. That Castiel had protected them and now it was her turn to help her. She looked at Hiccup and nodded bending down to allow them access to her back. Once Hiccup was settled on with Castiel, she nuzzled her head against Toothless, as if giving a promise she would bring back Hiccup as soon as she could so that they could bring him home as well. 

After that she was off, flying full speed toward Berk, determined to get there as soon as she could and in no time at all, she was landing in the middle of Berk. Not too long after, Castiel was taken to be taken care of by one of the healers and while Aurora wanted to go with her, she knew they had to get back to the island to retrieve Toothless. So, once Hiccup had his other tailfin she allowed him to get on her back and took off, going back to retrieve her mate and babies.

...two days later...

Castiel was so confused when she began to stir awake. Her eyes blinked up and at first everything was blurry. When her eyes began to focus though she was met by a pair of rainbow eyes that make her sit up, only to be happily attacked by Aurora licking her face and two of the hatchlings flew onto the bed, while Blizzard remained on the floor, attempting to jump onto the bed, but was too short and unlike the other two, currently couldn't fly due to his hurt wing. Castiel smiled brightly at the sight of Aurora back to her usual self and went to say her name excitedly, only to have just air pass out form her mouth. She frowned and attempted to speak again only for the same thing to happen. She couldn't speak. Not a sound other than air was heard. 

Reaching her hand to her throat, fingers brushing against it, she slowly was coming to terms with what had happened. When Drago hit her there.....it had done this. She was mute. Never again would she speak. After her shock had worn off a bit she looked down and picked Blizzard up so that he was in cuddled up in her lap. As she sat there now, she took in her surroundings. She was sitting on the edge of a bed in someone's house. The last thing she remembered was being with Hiccup, trying to free Aurora and taken down Drago. Only Drago had almost killed Hiccup. She couldn't remember after that though. She had tried to stop him, right? Had she succeeded? Or was Hiccup.....

Thinking this, she went to stand up and winced at the pain in her side. Broken ribs. Great. She pushed passed the pain, and wanting to see if Hiccup was okay. She got a few steps and halfway there had to sit on the floor for a moment to rest before she attempted again and got to the top of the stairs, frowning more. This was going o be hard, but she still attempted it, holding tightly onto the wooden railing as she went down the stairs, starting to get more worried the longer she went without seeing if Hiccup was okay. She finally made it to the door and walked outside, looking about, the village bustling like normal and those who noticed seemed to stop and look at her a moment before going on with what they were doing, not seeming at all as hostile as they had been when she had first landed in Berk to seek Hiccup's help.

Aurora walked along beside the human, the two flying hatchlings following close behind and Blizzard sitting atop her head. She knew what, or more specifically, who her human was looking for. Her human seemed to be very fond of the male human, which made Aurora happy. It was good to see Castiel friendly with another human. Maybe things would turn out okay between them. She hoped anyway. She nuzzled her head against the human and then hopped happily ahead of her, looking for Hiccup and after sniffing the air, followed his scent to the great hall and pushed open the door with her snout, going quickly over to Hiccup and Toothless, making happy chirping sounds, letting the boy and his dragon know that Castiel was up and heading their way.
