Chapter 4: Forbidden Friendship

Meanwhile in the sky lots of Valkyries, Marauders and Thunderbolts heading to the very heavily fog. There's general Stoick's Valkyrie. He's with tech priest and his younger brother colonel Spitelout. He command the fleet with vox caster

"Attention to all aircraft in my command. We're getting into the dragon lair. Keep in formation and vox into my Valkyrie if something happen."

The fleet turn into the fog and disappear into it.

In the arena my squad mate are fighting the Deadly Nadder in the maze

"Uh,commissar in the Codex there is no information about the Night Fury. So I think there must be a another book that have more detail of the Night Fury." Suddenly the Deadly Nadder fire fireball at me but I duck before it hit me.

"Whoa!"

"Focus on your target,Hiccup. All right today we'll learn about attack the dragon's weakness. The Deadly Nadder is fast and agile and you must faster than this xenos."

The Nadder is climb into the top of the wall and find it's target. I see Fishleg run and scream. The Deadly Nadder fire the spikes from it's tail. The spikes hit Fishleg's Shield

"Ahh,commissar, I'm really beginning to question your teaching methods."

"Find it blind spots! Every dragons have it. Hide in it and attack from it" Commissar teach us from above

The Deadly Nadder see it next targets, the twins. The twins run but unfortunately they're run to the dragons but look like the twins stand in it's blind spot

"Yuk,do you ever bathe?" Ruffnut said

"You don't like it, then just get your own blind spot!" Tuffnut yell

"How about I give you one?" Ruffnut start to argue with her brother

And the Nadder see the twins and breath the fire out but fortunately they can run before it hit them.

"Blind spot, yes. Deaf spot - not so much!"

I run with Astrid and Snotlout. I start to ask about Night Fury.

"Ah, commissar. Is there anyone can give me information about the Night Fury?"

"No one ever survive and come back to tell the tale. Now go back to the Fight."

"Yes of cause sir."

"Shh, over here." Astrid whisper to me and I take cover near her. The Nadder come closer and Astrid and Snotlout start to dodge and I try to dodge but fail and the Nadder see me. I run very quickly and the Nadder climb the wall and climbdown to Snotlout and Astrid

"Watch out, babe, I'll take care of this one." He fire his plasma gun to the Nadder but miss.

"The sun was in my eyes, Astrid! What do you want me to do, block out the sun? I could do that, but I don't have time right now!"

The Nadder start to breath fire again and almost hit snotlout. They're escaping from nadder and the Nadder start to break the walls and the arena now in the chaos.

"So, what is an actual size of the Night Fury. Like a Gretchin or like a Baneblade?"

Astrid climb the wall and the Nadder make the wall fall so she jump to me

"HICCUPPP!" she lands on me and her bayonet is on my shield. She try to move her shotgun out of my shield but it stuck in my shield

"Ooh! Love on the battlefield!" Tuffnut said

"She could do better" Ruffnut complain

But the Nadder get it strength back and run to Astrid but she swing her shotgun and smash the Nadder face and my shield scatter into pieces. Now the Deadly Nadder is knockdown. The Fight is over.

"Excellent, Astrid" Commissar approve her. She walk to me and pull me up

"You think this is some kind of a joke? Our Emperor's war is about to become ours! Figure out which side you're on."

She leave the arena with the rest of my squad.

After the training I've return to the valley and I bring some food on my bag. I throw fish and wait for the Night Fury but nothing happen. I pick up the fish and seach for the Night Fury. Suddenly the Night Fury appear from the rock and make me scare. The night fury climb down and stare at me. I hand the fish to the Night Fury and it start to move closer and open it mouth. But the Night Fury still don't trust me. It's walk backward. I grab my laspistol and throw to the ground and use my foot to throw it in the lake. I hand the fish to it and it come closer to me and open it mouth. I can't see it's teeth

"What happen to your teeth? I remember that you had…"

Suddenly the Night Fury grow it teeth and bite my fish. It's make me a big shock

"Teeth"

After it eat it walk to me and make me down to the rock

"Whoa, I don't have anything for you now."

It stare at me and vomit the part of the fish to my lap. It's very disgusting

"Yuk!"

It's walk backward and sit and stare at me again. I start to curious "what did it want me to do?" And I figure out what it want.

I sign and start to eat that smelly fish. I bite a bit and I nods my head. I hand the fish to the Night Fury but it stare at me again.

I sign and swallow that disgusted fish. It's one of the worst moment of my life. The Night Fury lick it tips and make me smile and I can't believe it can smile too. I reach out my left hand to touch it but it turn it show aggressive face and growl. It fly and land near the rock pile. It breath out the fire near it and lay down. I walk and sit near the Night Fury. It start to turn face to sleepyand cover it's face with it wing and tail. I'm sure it sleep and reach my right hand to touch it but it open it wing and see me. I walk away from it and wait for hour. I see it hang from the tree like a Bat. It open it eyes and see me drawing something in the sand. I draw the Night Fury face with wood stick. It walk to me and watch me draw it. When the time past I almost finish draw the Night Fury. It move away and I hear some branch fall from the tree. By the Emperor, the Night Fury use the branch to draw something around me. When it finish I see the lines around me.

It's good to know the xenos have something similar to us. I walk to the line and step to it and the Night Fury's face turn to aggressive face and growl again. I lift my leg and the Night Fury's face turn to friendly face again. I step to the line again and it turn it's face to aggressive face again. I lift my leg again and cross the lines. I walk with carefully to not touch the line. Like walk in the mine field. I walk like this until I turn around and see the Night Fury. I reach my hand again and hope this time I can touch it. But it growl again. I close my eyes and reach my right hand and this time I'll touch it face. I reach my limit to reach my hand but the Night Fury move it head to my hand. It's my first time to touch the xenos closely. I turn my head and open my eye. It open it eyes too and move away from me. I check my watch. It's time to go back to the stronghold. I retrun to stronghold and spent the rest of the day read the Codex.
