I don't own anything except the plot that is written here and my OCs, That remains true on all of my uploads.

This is Kyoshi island, a few nautical miles east of the earth empire, and some hundred nauts north of the southern water tribe. The fire nation used to be at war with the other civilizations and nearly wiped out one. Turns out, Fire Lord Ozai was a crazed lunatic. their new leader, Fire Lord Zuko, has set peace in the world and everything has gone great since then. My name's Ping yu. I can waterbend, but a rare event happened when I was born which gave me the ability to firebend.

The villagers have always considered me odd, I get run out of their shops, called names by everyone, one even knocked me out once. I've helped catch some loyalists of Ozai from time to time, yet the villagers still think I'm nothing but trouble. It's been fifteen years since the end of the war that plagued this land for over one hundred years. The second Ozai lost his fire bending to the current avatar, Aang, was when I came into the world. the spirits decided to send me Ozais' firebending. I'm always on a debate on my abilities, it's either a gift, or an unjustifiable curse.

My mother died while giving birth to me, my father was unfit to take care of me on his own due to his drinking problem. I was raised by a couple of travelers for twelve of my years. The other three years were spent here in my current place of residence, an old abandoned shack near the beach. Someone almost burnt it down, but it wasn't completely destroyed. As for the travelers? They were arrested and sentenced to life in prison for causing an uproar against a law disallowing trade routes to be made between The fire nation Islands and Kyoshi Island.

I'm around 4'7'' and my general appearance is somewhat lacking. My right is blue while my left eye is red, I usually wear a cloth that covers my left eye. My right arm and hand has a strip of linen wrapped around it, the reason for this is that I have an unusual birthmark which almost looks like a dragon. My cloths consist usually of a ragged blue shirt without sleeves but protrude off my shoulders. My pants are yellowish white and baggy with tears everywhere. My shoes aren't in the best shape either, they're black with a reddish sole but are scuffed and scraped to no end. My hair is spiky and the longest it gets is just above my shoulders due to cutting it with two dao swords I found while at lake laogai when my surrogate parents were free.

I make money by capturing criminals with bounties on their heads under a guise known as the dual bladed demon. I conceal my identity by using a red mask that I bought at a carnival at one time, That, and I have a black suit I wear as my alter ego. The guard got suspicious, but when they found out it was me, they just let me keep a job as a night watch. As it turned out, they were okay about me doing this. Less thieves equals less hassle.

It was the last day of the summer season, I was only thinking about the cold winter ahead. I woke up and started my day as normal. After I tied my \eyeband/ to my head, the sound of chanting out the window came to me, clear as crystal. I became slightly worried, It was like an angry mob, when I heard what they were saying I became scared.

"Kill Ping Yu" over and over again.

"Wait what? Wha'd I do?" I asked myself in my scratchy young voice.

I heard the front door smash open.

"Oh Lemurs!" I said before dashing to the back door while grabbing my daos and clipping them to my belt by the sheath.

"There he is!" I heard a males' voice yell and a thrown dagger landed to the side of me a second after I dashed for the other exit.

I kept running as fast as my feet could carry me. I made it to the back door and kicked it open. this dislodged a piece of wood from the frame, making it inaccessible to anyone else. Unfortunately a brutish guy awaited on the other side.

"Heh heh heh, you're gonna die today kid." he said in a gruff voice, though he sounded like an idiot. Before he could catch me, I slid under him and knocked him down with a swift kick to the back of his knee.

"Get him!" I heard a woman with a torch say.

I ran to the other side of the house, where the cliff is. But I only made it so far because the villagers had already circled back to where I was. I was trapped like a salmon-trout in a fishing net. I blocked a sword strike with my dao, then another, but I fell at the third. I fell, and fell, it felt like it would never end. It was like hours since I had my feet touching the ground. Finally something changed and it was like I started rising, only to fall down again for a short second. I heard a gasp before landing on some kind of wooden platform and blacked out instantly.

Coma

I woke up to two dragons, one blue, the other red.

"Hello, young warrior, it's time you learned some proper bending techniques." a female voice sounded while the blue dragon came forward, however backing off after the voice stopped.

"We however won't give too many secrets." a male voice said while the red dragon did the same as the other, blue dragon.

The two dragons started flying around me in a tight circle, blasting their fire breath at the ground. This created a tornado of fire that also held many colors, some of which seemed unimaginable to the human mind. I saw different fiery beings in the flames, all of which were using different techniques for bending fire. After the flames died out, the dragons had left and in their place were two fish that looked like opposites. La and Tui, or the moon and ocean spirits swam mid air in front of me while chasing each other. This started to form the yin-yang symbol with water spinning like a whirlpool on the edges. Getting the idea,I leaned forward into the shape. My face felt like I had been submerged, leaving the feeling my head was just placed into a pool of cold refreshing water. I was surprised to see tribal drawings of waterbending techniques, dancing and moving like the flow of water.

After I was pulled out of this trance, I saw the world around me shake. Before I went, I turned back to my teachers and gave a nod. With a wave of the hand, I was off to the waking world.

Coma end

I woke up in a very dimly lit room with a wet cloth on my forehead. I heard a door opening so I closed my eyes again.

"I wonder if he's gonna wake up" an unfamiliar male voice sounded, a moan came from some kind of creature. "I know bud, it's been three days so far, maybe he'll wake up today."

I suddenly felt something heavy jump on the wooden bed I was strewn upon. "What are you doing?" I heard the guy ask. Suddenly something big and wet glided across my face. That's when I showed signs of life. I scrambled away from whatever did that and I fell off the bed, followed by an odd laugh from the same creature. "Oh, okay, you were showing me he was awake." the man said lamely.

I opened my eyes after drying my face off being careful to keep the cloth on my 'special' eye. "What in Wan Shi Tongs' library was that?"

"That would be toothless, and who's Wan Shi Tong?" The man asked.

"Wan Shi Tong's the spirit that's said to know over ten thousand things, he takes the form of a gigantic owl. ugh, why's it so dark?" I say while creating a small fireball above my hand, surprising the dark figure and the man.

"Whoa! What in Odins' name?" The man said.

"What? Never seen a firebender before?" I asked as I stood up.

"err, no" He said as I spotted a torch on the wall so I flicked the small ball of fire at it, lighting it up instantly, the room was lit with the warm fire. I finally saw the dark figure in its entirety. It was a black creature, about the size of a bear-weasel, with scales all over its body. It had two leathery wings, and was low to the ground, despite being tall enough to meet me at about shoulder height. It was about as wide as I am tall. It was also as long as one and a half of me standing head to toe, not counting the tail.

"Uuuh, what's this?" I asked the guy, gesturing to the black scaled creature in front of me.

"That's Toothless, he's a night fury, a very rare species of dragon." the guy explained.

"A dragon? I thought that dragons were all serpentine." I said.

"Can you draw one?" he asked

"Sure."

a few minutes later and I've drawn a bare bones picture of the dragons from my dream. "There" I said "This is roughly their body type, snakelike but with claws" I finished as the man picked up the paper I drew on.

"I've never seen a dragon like this before, how do they fly exactly?"

"No one's figured that one out yet." disappointed, he turned toward the drawing again.

I chanced a glance at toothless and wondered if I could approach him, so I took a low-to-the-ground stance and moved toward him. He seemed to be curious why I'm doing this. I extended my arm out toward the dragon and he seemed to understand and came up to it willingly. He was warm to the touch, and his scales were very tough, yet had a slight gentleness to them as well. The man turned to see what was going on.

"huh, you're a natural, making yourself seem smaller was a good move on your part. He usually won't allow a complete stranger to just touch him like that. Not after what he's gone through anyway."

Toothless looked at the man and huffed as if to say "He's not threatening"

"I've studied stuff like this, to get through to most creatures, you shouldn't pose a threat." I replied.

"Maybe you could try out for the riders, I think you'd do good."

"Just one thing, what's your name, mine's Ping yu, but I guess you and any others I meet can call me Ping."

"Okay, my name's Hiccup, leader of the vikings here on berk island."

"Really?" suddenly the door slammed open to reveal a woman about the same age as Hiccup.

"Oh, hi Astrid, how are you?" Hiccup sounded nervous.

"I see our mystery guest is awake, anyway, training is in half an hour, better be there." Astrid said in a gruff tone.

Hiccup rubbed his arm then said "Alright, hey is it okay we introduce Ping here to the others and their dragons?" gesturing toward me.

Astrid just nodded and left.

"Today's just getting started, isn't it?" I said

"yeah, it's always like this, that is unless I'm mapping the world on toothless."

the dragon just gave an elated moan in response seeming to like the idea of flying with Hiccup.

"by the way, where's my eyeband? I Don't let others see my other eye."

"Do you mean this?" he handed a familiar cloth to me and I nodded. "Those swords of yours are at the blacksmith. Gobber wanted to take a look at them." he told me.

"okay, do you know anyone who sells flutes? I've actually been looking for one." I ask after putting my eyeband around my head so it covers my left eye.

"not really, to have something like that, you'd need to make one at the blacksmith yourself."

"oh, okay, seems reasonable." I said, disappointed due to my lack of skill as a smith

We started out the door after I got something to eat. The first thing to reach my eyes was a thriving village with various vikings and dragons working together and coexisting. We headed to our right while hiccup was explaining different things and saying hello to random vikings. Toothless was walking beside us and a couple of smaller dragons, almost lizard-like in structure, hopped on top of toothless. I stroked one before they were called by another viking and hopped off toothless.

Finally we end up at a caged dome of sorts and the three of us enter via gate. I was astonished what I saw next.

\eyeband/ A strip of cloth Ping uses to cover his left eye.
