Chapter One - But Toothless Can't Fly.
"He's gone missing again."
Hiccup ran a hand through his hair, a long sigh escaping his lips as he stared into the distance of the setting sun. Astrid placed a comforting hand on his shoulder as the boy looked as if he were about to cry. "This is the seventh night, Astrid. It's been a week. Where could he be going?"
Astrid shrug her shoulders, massaging his slowly.
"Maybe dragons need alone time too, just like we do. Besides, Toothless always returns by morning. You shouldn't worry so much." She smiled.
Nodding his head in thought, Hiccup continued to stare into the distance with wide eyes. No matter how many times Astrid said this, no matter how much he tried to convince himself that Toothless would never run away from him, he couldn't help the feeling in his gut. Something was about to change.
For better or for worse? He didn't know.
- Toothless.
It takes me two hours and forty two minutes to get to the top of Marian Mountain, a place just far enough from Berk, Hiccup, and all the other dragons. The top of the mountain was covered in bright blue flowers. It overlooked the ocean and had a perfect view of the sunset.
I watch as the sky turns an ugly grayish color, before turning into the beautiful darkness. Memories of the days where I used to blend into that darkness flooded my mind. When I would fly through the clouds, hidden from the eyes below.
But sadly, those days are over. Of course, my life now was much better. I loved having a home and a family, friends that I could always play with. But I can't help the tight feeling I get when I see the other dragons flying. Even though it's supposed to be a private thing, a way to release stress and think, I can't help but watch them and wish that I could be that once again.
"You know, pitying yourself won't do you any good."
I frown, rolling over. "Maybe not, but it doesn't really concern you. Does it?" I growl out.
There is a pause for a moment, before a sweet laugh fills the air. I rustling behind me, and soon there is a small hand stroking my scales. "No it doesn't. Shall I make your dreams come true then, Nightfury?"
A grin spreads across my face. "Do it."
Then there is silence as she removes my prosthetic and sadel. I flinch a bit as she removes the sadel, feeling like it is breaking a promise to Hiccup. My rider.
She grabs my tail, massaging it for a bit before she bends down and gives it a soft kiss. "Okay, have fun Nightfury." She grins at me, giving me a soft kiss on my head.
Nodding, I take off in the sky, the temporary fin guiding me through the skies.
Just temporarily. Just for the night.

It'll make more sense as the story continues. Just roll with it.
