第四章:两只红色眼睛,悬浮在空中(4)
In the heat of the Dragon Rebellion chase he had forgotten that the humans – Alvin the Treacherous and his mother, Excellinor the witch – were also looking for Hiccup, and the witch was using Vampire Spydragons to hunt and spy for her.
Hiccup had never seen a Vampire Spydragon before, but he knew they were chameleons that could turn every part of themselves invisible – apart from their glowing red eyes.
Slowly the rest of the Vampire Spydragon materialised around those two red eyes hovering in front of Hiccup.
It was a ghastly shrieking creature, with the head of a vampire bat and the body of an enormous monkey.
For one second Hiccup saw this vision, and then there was a searing pain in his left arm. He looked down in confusion, as if it were happening to someone else, to see the head of the Vampire Spydragon attached to his arm.
