So we have the next book for WHTM. I can tell that this is the most wanted version of Useless love… I guess that is was because it was a bit original… But now we get to see what happens next… there won't be much of a split between the starting chapter and the Berk Accademy. The reason being that Hiccup isn't injured in any way so he is able to put forth his full attentions to the problem at hand, and that would be intergrating the dragons into the Vikings of Berk's lives.
"Hiccup! Son, the dragons are going crazy can you show them how to calm them down."
I groan, for the past two weeks Toothless and I have been taking care of the dragons that have been flocking here. There were so many seeking me, the Alpha that I had to send most of them back to Dragon Island or as they called it the Monster's nest because it was the nest of the red death. I had killed it two weeks ago and in those weeks the ones that had sailed there without permission had started work on fixing or making new ships to replace the ones burned at that place. I haven't had good sleep since then though because the dragons required a good eye on them, any hope of a peaceful sleep was taken by rowdy dragons that I had to take care of… I found that being nice only made it worse. I didn't wish to be mean but the only quiet I got for the night was to walk around the village and make sure that the dragons were getting ready to sleep or else the next day I would be woke up earlier.
Today, it was later that this call happened but I still wanted to sleep longer. I groaned again, waking my love.
'What is wrong my mate?' She asked sleepily
'The other dragons are getting rowdy again. And my dad needs me to calm them down.'
'You know I am here for you?'
'Yes, my love.' I nuzzled her, she returned the love and offered a kiss. I purr and accept her love. She purrs in return and gives me a light lick on my cheek. I return the jester. She purrs… I wish we could have a bit longer but I have to do what I must today. I get up, Toothless follows me. I walk down the stairs and out of the house. Once outside I see what is happening. The bonded dragons are running rampant with the wild ones. I growl, trying to be nice. Only the bonded dragon turn to me. Then their attention is taken by the wild ones. I roar making the all bow. Dang they have to drag me into a bad mood. 'Bonded dragons, Go to the arena. Wild ones come to me!' I command. The bonded dragons seek out their riders and head over to the arena. The wild ones gather around me. The other draogns gather around me and my love.
'So who among you wish to bond to one of the Vikings of this island?'
Only a few stepped forward: two terrible terrors, a nadder, a gronckle, and a nightmare. The rest stood back.
'Very well, the rest of you go back to Dragon Island.'
'But that place is dreary.' 'It has bad memories.' 'My mate was ate by the queen.'
'I am sorry but the peace of this Island must be kept, so I may have the sleep I want, and so the Vikings are comfortable with the dragons. Or would you much rather them be chopping at our heads again?'
All the wild ones there shook their heads and growled: 'No'
'Then do as I command. Or do I need to get mean?'
My markings started glowing at my command.
The wild ones bowed and the ones that didn't wish to bond left for Dragon Island.
I huff, just a problem that I have had to deal with since the nest of the red death fell under my command. Next was the food, with the dragons only hunting for so much, some of them being lazy, both the Vikings and dragons were having food issues. I was still trying to figure that out…
I flew to the dragon arena were all the riders were awaiting with their dragons, and a few other were there too, my dad among them.
I sigh, and walk to my sand tray where I could write my instructions. I wrote a greeting that Havel read.
"Good morning all. Today we have a few new comers to Berk. They wish to have a rider. So who among you will answer their cry for kinship?"
I saw elder Gothi step forward. She already had two terrors but she would come for the terrors that would come, not all stayed but she loved them like they were her child or grandchild even. Two other Vikings stepped forward.
Gothi tried first, The nadder didn't want her neither did the Nightmare… But just one sniff and the terror leapt onto her and cuddled on her. Gothi laughed at their antics.
The nadder took the male Viking and the Nightmare took the female Viking. Both parties were happy with the other. I then started writing my instructions for the riders of Berk.
"I want all of you to be productive. The only plan that comes to mind so that our continued friendship thrives is that all of you use your dragon's special skill to gather a resource for Berk. Be that stone for modifying structures, fixing the broken catapults. Trees for fixing buildings, firewood, or food that we need for the dragons and Vikings of Berk."
The dragons didn't seem too happy.
I growl, letting my power surge. 'I command you to do this, for without your work this partnership will not last.'
'But can't the Vikings do it themselves?' 'Why do we have to hunt for them?'
'Because we live here now and if we wish for them to be happy we must do what we can so that they can live happy with us among them. Besides when the time comes that we can't hunt where will our food come from then?'
'From the Vikings…'
'Exactly, we need to gather food so that their store not only supports them, but us during these upcoming months.'
'What is your other wish Alpha?'
'I just want all of you to take care of things going on around the village because with Toothless pregnant I have young on the way that I must take care of, I will not be able to turn my attention to you because of this.'
'Very well Alpha.'
It was at this time that all the Vikings had mounted their dragons. The dragons took off, there were only two that didn't… The red Nightmare, Hookfang; and the blue Nadder, Stormfly. Much to the displeasure of their riders. They approached me.
'Alpha, do you need someone to help you watch the others in your stead?' Hookfang asked
'Of course he needs help, he is only one dragon and his beta will not be able to assist him for a time because she will be busy with their young.'
"Son?" My dad asked. I didn't even notice he had come closer to me. I turned to him, "I uh, well, I was wanting to know. Do you know how to change yourself back?"
I write in the sandbox: "I could for a short time, but as for a permanent solution there isn't one. I am stuck as a Night Fury."
"But do you wish to be the chief of Berk?"
"I gave up on that after I turned out like I was, and now. I still could be."
"How?"
"I can write can I not? I can still read. I can understand any Viking still. I may not speak like you, but I can still have a bridge of understanding."
"Hmmm, my other question was is Toothless really your love?"
"I tried so hard to get Astrid… By the time I was changed into this, she wouldn't have me even if I was the last available teenager on Berk. Besides, as I know it the mating bond between Toothless and I is stronger than any marriage contract or marriage would ever be. I look at Astrid now as one of you. I wouldn't have her."
As Astrid read this I heard her gasp. So what? I don't care, she had her chances well before this. I am now with one that will love me no matter what happens.
"Is there anything else needed?"
"I was just going to ask, which dragon do you think I would be the best with?"
I look at him, the only dragon from the queen's flock that would match up with him would be a Thunderdrum, or as the dragons called them a wind screamer.
"A Thunderdrum… I will see if one would like to be your dragon."
"That would be great Hiccup, thank you son." He patted my head. I gave a friendly purr. Such jesters made my day better. I turned back to Stormfly and Hookfang.
'Yes I do need someone to take over as a secondary for Toothless and I so that I could get good sleep for once, and so that the dragons won't be as much of a problem to handle.'
They bowed, 'We will do what we can.' They took off. I could have sworn that Astrid had looked at me with despair like she truly wished that we could have a love life… Ha, no way, I have Toothless and she is all that matters to me. I nuzzled her, she nuzzled back and licked my snout. I purred and walked out of the arena and walked to a good vantage point to watch the happenings of Berk…
Yeah the Academy was already established. But he is still having pre Academy problems. There will still be a Mildew visit, and that will spark the idea for helping with the farm. For now the food problem with fish and game will be handled… Yeah Hookfang and Stormfly will be the watchers of Hiccup's flock, while Hiccup remains the Alpha and Toothless the Beta. I was trying my best to be longer… Boring comes to mind though still for me… Oh well, enjoy the start of the next book at any rate. And yes we get to see more Hiccup and Toothless moments, it's just that they will have to be more careful, Hiccup is the Alpha so unless things stay handled in the village he will have to be ready to leave from any vacation he may take. But all that work gives him time for a nap. That is until he is need… As for the Warrior of light… Darn
Warrior of Light: I am still here MMPLuc!
I can see that.
Warrior of Light: How about this one.
SMACK. Warrior of Light used megatonpumch. MMPLuc Faints.
Warrior of Light: Now for him I will say, Review if you like. If not… Na, that line would be too mean, so I will leave it at that.
