Chp 2
A.N well hello again. I must say I'm sorry for taking forever with this chapter. It was just hard for me to write and I don't know why. I mean I knew what I wanted to happen and things just, well it's here now. I'm also kinda excited. I get to interact with people who like my story. ^.^ makes me feel good. Well here we are. We've seen Astrid and how she's been these past five years now who are we missing? Oh yes our favorite Hiccup. Enjoy.
Guest- I'm glad someone is so excited for this story. As for my plan's on Hiccup's armor I see it as what he had in the second movie just way darker( almost black) and also the claw gloves that did not see much action last story but will see more I believe. Yes he does have Inferno and when Eret comes it will be quite entertaining (loved that part of the movie, cheeky Hiccup). I hope I live up to your expectations.
The ocean dragons loved to visit the surface. They used to never stick their heads above the deep blue water they called home, but then the Alpha saved a child. Gave him the eyes of a dragon to match his soul, raised him as a their own and five years ago he proved it by freeing a nest from an evil queen. So the ocean dragons now came above the waves to watch him and his Night Fury partner soar above the clouds, as he was doing now.
Hiccup yelled with joy as they flew. High in the clouds, nothing could touch them. This was what he enjoyed most. He enjoyed being up here, he enjoyed being with Toothless, he enjoyed being free. He didn't have his own wings but he was trying to fix that.
'Hey bud. Want to try again?' He leaned close to his partner. Speaking dragon was hard for humans but not him.
'No.' The reply was one of annoyance.
'Aw come on Toothless.'
'No.'
'Why not?'
'Because we've almost crashed several times. And I mean several.'
'Please?'
'If we crash I'm blaming you. Especially if you lose your other leg.' Hiccup looked at his left leg and sighed. He had almost not made it after the fight with the evil queen. The cost of Toothless saving him had been his left leg. Well he made the best of it. His new leg was not just a hunk of wood but metal and mechanical. It served a purpose more than just being a leg. His new leg could hold his Zippleback gas and also, if need be, be a weapon against the trappers.
The trappers who sought to take his family and put them into abusive servitude to the tyrant that was Drago Bludvist. The trappers that he constantly annoyed by setting their catch free without even raising their alarm. But by now enough rumors had spread about the 'vigilante' that was the Dragon Prince, of course that wasn't his name, but still. He had a reputation.
Hiccup looked down to the ocean below and smiled. One, two, three! He leaned to the right and slipped off of the saddle he had crafted for Toothless, falling through the air like an arrow. His Partner not far behind. Pulling a mechanism on his armor, and snapping his arms out, he smirked as his new 'flight' suit was put into action, gliding through the air. That is until he lost control and started to free fall.
'Hiccup!' Toothless soared behind him and quickly wrapped him in his wings as they crashed into an island.
'Told you.'
'It wasn't that bad! It was working just need more practice.'
'We crashed. Again.'
'What? Are you pouting, big baby boo?' Toothless glared at him. Hiccup laughed and turned to inspect where they had crashed only for Toothless to chuck a small rock at his head.
'Really?'
Toothless's smirk was smug as he stared at his Partner.
Hiccup sighed, annoyed but continued his exploration of the small island.
'This isn't that far from Berk.' Toothless stiffened and stared at him. He knew Hiccup wanted to go back, but he felt he wasn't wanted or needed. Hiccup sighed and looked at his friend.
'Come on. Cloudjumper is going to be annoyed if we don't get home soon.' Note to self don't come home a day late when your parental figure is a dragon.
Valka wondered what it was like to have a dragon partner. She always believed they were gentle creatures, a belief that was killed when one took her son, but was proven right when they moved in after the 'Dragon Boy' as Astrid called him, saved them.
Now she was sitting behind Astrid on a dragon, who was the girl's partner, looking for this strange boy.
What she didn't expect to happen was Astrid to act surprised when a Stormcutter dragon cut through the clouds and her partner stopped listening to her to follow its fellow dragon, she also didn't expect her to be so calm. She was surprised at the Stormcutter not what had happened because of it.
"Astrid?"
"I know him."
"You know a random Stormcutter?"
"Valka it's Cloudjumper!" She hissed slightly at that name. The dragon responsible for taking her son, but that strange boy was a clue to his fate. She had begun to hope when she had glimpsed him in the past. If he was raised, saved by dragons was it possible, with their ages so similar, that Astrid's 'Dragon Boy' was her Hiccup?
The two dragons landed in a cavern made of ice. It was dark, all Valka could see were the black outlines of dragons around them, but she could feel the cold of the ice.
A series of growls alerted the two warriors of an approaching figure. Astrid lifted her axe while Valka lifted a staff. The growls turned to little roars and hums. The figures of dragons seemed to lower to the ground as the growls came closer.
Then the dragon sounds stopped. A click and suddenly there was a blast of fire. It illuminated Valka and Astrid but left the figure in darkness. The fire clicked off, disappearing, after another series of hums and growls the whole room was soon lighten up by dragons who used their fire as lanterns. There stood a hooded figure in front of them. Astrid sucked in a breath and was hoping, praying their search was over. Then the figure spoke.
"Astrid?"
Again I am so sorry it took so long for this chapter I hope I never take so long again. Also sorry for the cliffy.
