Hey, guys. animaldoctor here. This is the second chapter of my new story, the episode The Terrible Twos from Toothless's Perspective. This is probably one of the biggest stories I will ever write, and it took me this long to find out how to post multiple chapters. I hope you enjoy.
We took the dragon to the Academy, and when everyone walked inside, I decided to just wait outside for Hiccup to come home. While I was sitting down near the front door, I heard Astrid say that someone had to take the dragon home. Everyone backed away, and Hiccup was left standing in the middle of the ring. "Well, big guy," he said. "Here's your somebody." Uh oh, I thought, this can't be good. I figured as long as that dragon was in the house, he could do whatever he pleased, and that was bad for all of us. Later that night, Hiccup asked his dad, Stoick, if he could have the dragon stay the night. I was thrilled when I heard the answer.
"No, no, no. He's not staying here. I've got a one dragon limit." "Oh, come on," Hiccup said. "He's not a very big dragon. Think of him more like a flaming squirrel." Stoick replied, "Don't want one of those, either." He put down some firewood on top of the fireplace. "Toothless," he said to me. "What are you waiting for?" I started getting ready to shoot a plasma blast, but before I had a chance to react, the young dragon shot a fireball toward the wood, lighting the fire. I was disappointed.
"Ha," said Stoick. "Looks like you got torched." "Show off," I said. "Oh, that's his name, by the way: Torch." A bad feeling coursed through my veins. "So, he can stay?" Hiccup asked. The answer that Stoick gave broke my heart. "Well, can't throw him out now. We just named him." Darn, so close to getting rid of that dragon for good. "You can't trust him," I growled. But, of course, neither of them listened to me. We started getting ready for dinner.
"Okay, a hundred for you," Hiccup placed a big basket of fish in front of me. "And one for you." He put a bowl with one fish in front of Torch. "There you go, boys. Your first supper together." I was so excited to eat, I could barely contain myself. When I looked down, though, I saw that Torch had eaten my basket of fish and his bowl with one fish. When a dragon gets in the way of another dragon's fish, that's crossing the line. I growled at him, and he ran up the ceiling and onto a nearby post. Finally, a break from that guy.
"Woah, Toothless," Hiccup said. "You're sure hungry tonight, aren't you, bud?" He held up the skeleton of one of the fishes as he walked away. Why? Just, why? I yelled at him again, and he yelled right back. That little guy is just downright annoying. Later that night, we started getting ready to go to bed. He brought Torch and I upstairs to his room. "Okay, Torch," he said as we were nearing the top of the stairs.
"This is where you're gonna sleep." He started getting ready to sleep on my bed, but I grabbed him by the tail and threw him off. "Ha," I said. "Serves you right for stealing my... fish." I turned around and saw he was right back where he was when I threw him off the bed. Man, he sure is quick. "Aw, look at that," said Hiccup. "He's made himself at home. Toothless, you don't mind sharing your bed for the night, do you?" "Yes, yes I do," I yelled at him. "Especially if I have to share it with that." I jumped up to the ceiling post, and decided I was going to stay up there until Torch backed off.
Torch settled onto a part of my bed. Looks like I would be staying here for the night. "Hope he sleeps through the night," said Hiccup. "He hardly ate." "HE DIDN'T HARDLY EAT!," I yelled. "HE ATE EVERY SINGLE FISH, INCLUDING HIS." "And you," said Hiccup, "go to sleep." He blew out the candle as he relaxed in his bed. Why wouldn't he just listen to me? I started to relax, and I thought I heard something out in the direction of the forest. Eh, probably nothing, I would keep my guard up tomorrow.
But then, the noise got louder. I couldn't relax with that noise going through the forest. I looked at Torch, and knew immediately that it was his mother. I jumped out of the window and ran toward the forest to see what was going on. I stopped on a rock face near the forest. "Whoever you are," I growled. "Stay away from my friends!" I saw an orange glow coming from the forest. I sat down and started looking out to see if there was anything out there.
I stayed sitting on the rock face all night, and I didn't realize that morning had come until about mid-day, when Hiccup and friends had come to the Academy with Torch. I didn't overhear too much in the scheme of things, just the fact that he ate an eel (I couldn't understand why,) his species was named Typhoomerang, and that's about it.
About in the middle of the session, I heard Hiccup call to me. "Toothless, let's take a ride, bud." I didn't respond. I wanted to make sure that everyone was safe. "Toothless!," he called. I didn't listen. I also heard Snotlout yelling while in the sky, so I assumed he was riding Hookfang and he wasn't listening to him. This was later confirmed when I saw them out of the corner of my eye. I didn't even save him a glance. Later that night, I stayed on the roof of the house so that I could hear anything that was going on in the distance. I didn't hear much.
I overheard Hiccup talking to Torch. "Okay, Torch, hold still. I'm trying to draw you. You're getting your own chapter." I knew he was talking about the Book of Dragons, where he puts everything that the Vikings know about every dragon they know of. He was getting special treatment. Hiccup was being nice to him, play-roaring with him, and I didn't get that treatment because Hiccup thought I was crazy. 'Well, I'll show him,' I thought. ''I'll show them all.' I finally got a chance when I heard the same roar and orange glow of the night before. I knew I had to hurry. I ran back in through the window to tell Hiccup.
That's it for this chapter. I really hope that people will continue to read this story, because this is the one I have worked the hardest on. I will see all of you in the next chapter. Bye-bye!
