Dagron, Abyss and Icebreaker stood in silence for a few moments, marveling at Quetzalcoatl, frozen in the ice.

  "Wow" Dagron uttered.

  "Incredible" Icebreaker uttered.

  "We found him" Abyss uttered.

  After about a minute, Dagron composed himself.

  "OK, let's go get the others and come back here" he said.

  Icebreaker and Abyss nodded silently and they took off. After a while, they all regrouped and met back up in the cave, where the others gazed in awe at the titan frozen in the ice.

  "OK, what's the plan" Acidstorm asked.

  "Well...just start melting away at the ice" Dagron replied.

  "Whoa, whoa, whoa, mister. Your fire is gonna melt everything in here, someone else should do it" said Abyss.

  "Fair enough. Any volunteers" Dagron asked.

  Firefly stepped forward.

  "Step aside, I'll have that wall of ice melted before you know it" he said.

  "Go ahead, Firefly" said Dagron.

  Firefly flew closer and began to use his fire to melt away at the ice. After about a minute of using his fire, he stopped. The ice immediately began to crack and quickly melt from the heat. Firefly got back to the others as that whole part of the wall shattered and broke off, falling to the cavern floor. Everyone looked back up and saw that Quetzalcoatl was now more visible and a part of the titan was actually exposed. That was when they saw two of the titan's eyes begin to glow bright yellow and that whole wall began to crack.

  "Everyone, run for it! Now" Abyss ordered.

  They all exited the cave as quickly as possible and made it back outside as the icy ground beneath their feet began to shake.

  "Everyone grab onto the ground and hold on tight" Dagron ordered.

  Everyone did that and after a few seconds of shaking, they heard the sounds of a lot of ice breaking apart behind them. They all turned around and looked up to see a spectacular sight. What they saw was Quetzalcoatl bursting through the ice and spreading his gigantic feathery and scaly wings. The massive titan let out a long and loud bellow, all four of his eyes opened and glowing bright yellow. Dagron and Abyss glanced over at each other and nodded silently before looking back at the others.

  "Everyone stay here! We got this" said Abyss.

  She and Dagron took flight, flying towards the massive titan. They got close enough to where Quetzalcoatl could see them and their staffs. The massive titan then bowed to show respect.

  "(Your majesties)" he uttered.

  "(Welcome back, almighty titan)" said Dagron.

  "(You have sought me out and awakened me? Why)" Quetzalcoatl asked.

  "(A lot of things have happened since you and your brothers went into your hibernation)" Abyss replied.

  "(What has happened)" Quetzalcoatl asked.

  Dagron and Abyss quickly explained the history of what dragons had gone through with dragon hunters, what happened afterwards and how Doomfire has already been awoken. After their explanation, Quetzalcoatl lowered his head, looking somewhat sad.

  "(So my brothers and I have failed)" he said.

  "(No, you haven't and don't say things like that. There's no way you could have predicted what would have happened)" said Dagron.

  "(And everyone always assumed that you titans were just a legend. Nobody thought that you actually existed)" said Abyss.

  "(Until recently)" said Dagron.

  Quetzalcoatl paused for a moment before speaking again.

  "(Thank you for awakening me from my slumber, your majesties. I will aid my brothers and spend the rest of my existance protecting all dragons from those who seek to harm them for their own selfish reason)" said Quetzalcoatl.

  "(Thank you, almighty titan)" said Abyss.

  "(Now we just need to find and awaken Thunderwing)" said Dagron.

  "(I know where my brother is resting. I can take you to him) said Quetzalcoatl.

  "(We already know. We'll go there and free him)" said Abyss.

  "(You head to the Isle. Join your other brother)" said Dagron.

  "(As you wish, your majesties)" said Quetzalcoatl.

  Dagron and Abyss then flew back down to their friends.

  "That's another titan awakened" said Acidstorm.

  "One more to go" said Smokescreen.

  The group then noticed that it was getting dark and that it was getting colder.

  "I-it's getting a little cold" said Smokescreen.

  "And it's g-getting darker" said Acidstorm.

  Quetzalcoatl saw them all grouped up and noticed that not only it was getting dark but some of them were shivering. The titan carefully slithered over to them and everyone all looked up at him as he wrapped his tail around them, forming a really big circle. He then lied down and covered them up with one of his feathered wings. They all smiled, knowing that the Titan was doing to this to let them sleep and keep them warm. Dagron stepped towards the middle of the circle and spat out a small fireball, creating a fire to keep them warm.

  "Well...let's all get some rest. We'll go to get Thunderwing tomorrow" said Dagron.

  They all nodded silently and lied down in their own parts of the circle to sleep. They all slept until the next morning, where Dagron was the first to wake up and notice that everyone else was still sleeping peacefully. A minute after he woke up, Abyss woke up and yawned.

  "Morning gorgeous" Dagron whispered.

  Abyss giggled.

  "Morning to you too, handsome" she whispered.

  They both looked around and saw everyone else sleeping peacefully in the own parts of the circle. Bansha, Acidstorm, Smokescreen and Firefly were sleeping in one part. Hunterbolt and Frost were sleeping peacefully in another part, which was a little surprising for Abyss.

  "Don't tell any of them, but Hunter likes Frost" Dagron whispered to her.

  "Not gonna lie, I kinda had my suspicion about it" Abyss whispered.

  "Really" Dagron asked her.

  "Oh, yeah" she replied.

  "In any case, good for them" Dagron whispered.

  He then looked the other way and was surprised by what he saw. He nudged Abyss and she looked at him.

  "Yeah" she whispered.

  She looked where he was looking and was equally as surprised to see Groundspliter sleeping peacefully with a smile on her face, right next to Icebreaker.

  "OK, that's something I wasn't expecting" Dagron whispered.

  "Me neither. I mean, her having feelings for someone we recently met? That is something" Abyss whispered.

  Dagron then got up and stretched, Abyss doing the same thing right after him. The two of them flew outside and found that it was a bright and sunny morning and that Quetzalcoatl was also sleeping peacefully. They went back inside the circle and under Quetzalcoatl's wing to find the others waking up one by one.

  "Morning guys" said Dagron.

  "Morning! Even though we slept on ice, that was surprisingly comfy" said Smokescreen.

  "Honestly, yeah. That was actually comfortable" said Acidstorm.

  "So, what now" Hunterbolt asked.

  "Now we go find Thunderwing, awaken him and then head home" Dagron replied.

  "Maybe we should head home first and then go find Thunderwing afterwards? Just to let everyone know that were fine and that we found the second titan" said Smokescreen.

  "Hmmm...you know, Smokescreen, that's not a bad idea" said Dagron.

  "I'm fine with that" said Abyss.

  "Then it's settled. We first head home for a bit and then we go and look for Thunderwing" said Dagron.

  Everyone else smiled and nodded silently before they all flew out and saw that Quetzalcoatl was still sleeping.

  "OK, how do wake up the sleeping titan" Firefly asked.

  "Simple – we just walk up to him and nudge him awake" Dagron replied.

  He and Abyss pulled out their staffs and walked up to the sleeping titan's head. They nudged him with the end of their staffs and sure enough, Quetzalcoatl woke up. The amphiptere titan yawned, rose up and flapped it's wings once, creating a slight gust of wind.

  "(It's time to go back to the Isle, Quetzalcoatl. All of us)" said Dagron.

  "(Very well, your majesties)" said Quetzalcoatl.

  Dagron, Abyss and their friends took flight and started flying towards the Isle of the Dragons. Quetzalcoatl, on the other hand, went into the cold ocean water and started swimming to the Isle. It was perfectly fine, since the cold didn't bother him in the slightest.

  Next stop, the Isle of the Dragons.
