Chapter 3 : The Smart One

" WHERE THE HELL IS THAT STUPID FROST ?!" Merida said while walking in the forest.

It seems like Merida was separated from Jack. "Guh.." Merida said when her hair stuck in one of the branch of the tree. Merida kept walking and arrived in a huge field with a pond in middle of the field. Merida quickly run to it and drink the water when suddenly she notice there is someone watching her. Maybe not watching.. looking at her. A small growl comes out. Merida hand slowly reached for her bow and her arrow. And it a snap she already turn her back in a position to shoot. A huge black dragon was standing behind her !

-Meanwhile -

"Where is Merida now ?" Jack said. Jack was in a town.

A Viking town. The town was quite a mess. Jack decided to take a walk to see the town and of course Merida. Suddenly a thin boy rushed past him. The boy was running with lot of stuff. Jack looked at him, suddenly Jack notice the boy dropped something near him. A Viking hat. Jack picked up and quickly flew to catch him. Jack didn't know why but he feel something like the boy was a guardian. Jack flew to follow him. He arrived in something like a stadium. Jack flew and saw the boy that he met earlier was fighting… a dragon ! But it seems he not fighting but he (menjinakkan). He didn't use any weapon. But he can make the dragon down and even lay down in front of him. Jack can see that the boy didn't want to killed the dragon, not like 4 others who really wanted to killed and defeat the dragon. After the battle field end in the night, the boy run to a forest, near the village. Jack kept following him. Wanted to know where he would go. The boy was running to a field with a huge pond. Jack suddenly notice a dragon in there and "MERIDA ! "Jack quickly flew down.

-Now..-

"Toothless !" The boy was really surprised when he saw a girl was stroking him. His face was really shock like his secret was open. The dragon who noticed that his owner has come, he quickly approached him and started to sniff around the bag that the boy have. A fish appeared and he quickly ate it. Jack was now in the ground. "Merida !" Jack said. "Where have you been ?!" Jack approached them. Merida looked back to him "What ?! you are the first one who disappear" Said Merida. The boy still looked confused, 2 strange person appeared in front of him and now being angry ot each other. One is a girl who can (menjinakkan) Toothless beside him and the other a boy who suddenly appeared from no where. Quite confusing for a little village boy. "Well… I don't know why, but… I will start to go now" Said the boy. "Hey… how about him? Do you even now him ?" Jack pointing his finger to the Dragon. The dragon was staring at both of them. His owner and the one who pointing to him. Why he became the main topic now ?

Looking confuse he lay down under The boy feet. "No… ?" Said the boy. And practically both of them can say that he was lying. When a dragon lay down in your feet and you said that you don't know him ? you seriously cannot be an actor. "You are a bad lie'r" Merida said. The boy still doesn't wanted to admit it. Merida took deep breath "You will leave this big cat here ?" Said Merida pointing to the Dragon. "He is not Cat !' Said the boy. "See ? I know you know him. Why do you leave him here ?" Merida said. The boy take a deep breath.

"Is complicated. And beside who are you ?" Said the boy to Jack and Merida. "My name Jack and this is Merida" Said Jack. "Who are you ?" "My name Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III and this is toothless" Said the boy introducing him and the dragon.

"Wow long name… are you a prince or something ?" Said Jack.

"Well… I am not prince.. quite, I am the son of the leader in here" Said Hiccup.

"You are son of leader in here ? Why do you…" Jack looked him. "Are you supposed to be..." Jack stopped 'Strong maybe ?"

"Well this is me .." Said Hiccup.

"Don't worry I know a lot of prince worse than you.." Said Merida. Hiccup smiled little. Still confused is that a praise or some of joke. When suddenly

"It's here…"Jack said "The smoke" Merida face turning pale. "What smoke ?" Hiccup said, looking confuse (Well this boy is really has lot of confuse) when he looked that Merida and Jack was like prepare some battle. Suddenly a smoke coming out from the ground and capturing hiccup. Hiccup who doesn't prepared strangle to get out, Toothless try help him. But the smoke now capturing both of them. The smoke capture them both in their own nightmare. A picture now floating in Hiccup head. A picture about his failure, that he couldn't fight. How his friend treat him before. Being left and never been (diakui). And his worst nightmare, his father doesn't wanted him anymore. Not a his son anymore.

Even Toothless try to escape his own nightmare. He saw by his self. How his father and mother eaten by the dragon who rule them. How tired him to feed the king. How he killed lots of people. Suddenly, in front of them a barrier made by ice appear. The smoke couldn't hurt them again. The nightmare started to gone. Jack make the barrier for all of them. The smoke that trap inside of the barrier was destroy by Merida. The smoke gone. Jack looked to Hiccup "We need to go to your village" Said Jack. "Merida.. go with Hiccup and Toothless, fly to the village, I will fly by myself" Said Jack. "Destroy the smoke" Jack looked to both of them and he fly away. Hiccup and Merida quickly follow him. The view from above was really beautiful. But when they arrived in the village it was turn to be a awful view. Smoke everywhere, every house. Hiccup quickly flew down. Jack already been there first and started to made a barrier for a whole village. But it need time.. and lot of smoke who trap inside of barrier. Merida quickly shooting the arrow to the smoke. Hiccup cannot do anything, Toothless too. When suddenly a huge smoke approach them. Hiccup started to fell his fear again and Toothless too. An arrow zing and hit the smoke just in right time. It was Merida ! (Of course it's her ! Who else could it be ?)

"Stand up and fight !" Merida said.

"How I suppose to fight if I don't know how to kill it ?! And beside the fear from the smoke could trap us again" Hiccup said.

"They just nightmare Hiccup !" Merida said. "You can defeat them !" Merida said

"I can ! so you can too ! beside you have toothless to help you… you can defeat them" Merida shoot and arrow to the smoke behind toothless. Without even look to it.

"How do you defeat them ?" Hiccup said. Merida turn her back started to shoot arrow again. "I don't know… really… I saw a light when I was trap in it. The light give me power to and give a target to shoot. My biggest night mare" Said Merida. "The smoke give a nightmare to person who trap inside them. Find your biggest nightmare and defeat it" Merida said and run to the battlefield again.

"How am I suppose to defeat it if I couldn't touch it and it's not real ?" Hiccup shout to Merida. "TRUST YOURSELF !" Merida said

"You are not alone !" after that Merida disappear. Not so long a smoke already behind them. Now they trap inside it. The nightmare come back. Hiccup try to stay strong with Toothless and try to stay calm but it cannot be done when you can see your own nightmare. Being left behind, Your father dumped you. Hiccup couldn't stand anymore and fall to his knees. Toothless try to make Hiccup stand when suddenly their both nightmare come. To lose each other. Hiccup try to stand again. "My biggest fear… to lose you.." Hiccup said to Toothless. "Biggest fear ?" Hiccup suddenly remember what Merida told him. Now Hiccup could see a little light in there. In center of their nightmare.; Now Hiccup was 100% sure what is the meaning of defeat their nightmare. "Toothless shoot that !" Hiccup pointing to their nightmare. Toothless take a big shoot and suddenly the smoke gone. Now they are in Berk again. The barrier almost finish but Jack looked really exhausted and Merida too. She shoot to the smoke who was all around her and Jack. She try to protect Jack so he could finish the barrier. Hiccup quickly jump to Toothless back and fly to them. Merida was looking really exhausted

"Is the barrier finish yet ?!" Merida shout to Jack. "Give me more time !" Jack said. "I don't think I could !" Merida said while looking to around them.

The smoke keep coming and Merida doesn't have any arrow now . When suddenly there is a little voice like a 'ZINGG!' and suddenly there is a blast and the smoke gone ! Merida looked up and saw Hiccup smiled to her. She smiled back. Not so long Jack have finished the barrier. Jack look to Hiccup "Would you like to join us ?" Jack smiled. Merida too. "Well I don't know…" He rolled his eyes to Toothless "how about you Toothless ?" Hiccup said to Toothless. Toothless just looked to Hiccup and have a little grown to him. Hiccup looked at them. Well tomorrow is his last battle and he have to Killed a Dragon, he already prepared to escape with Toothless but after this ? Maybe he could go somewhere, escape from his duty to kill dragon and have a little adventure with his new friend. It could be fun. "I'm in.."
