"No turning back." Astrid muttered as she entered the dragon training arena, the rest of the teens behind her.

"I hope we get some serious burns!" Tuffnut exclaimed excitedly.

"Eh, I want some mauling. Like on my shoulder, or lower back." Ruffnut said as Astrid rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, it's only fun if you get a scar out of it." She said dryly as Gobber entered the arena, his usually excited and happy eyes were now determined and angry.

"In this program you will learn to face the 5 most common dragons on this island. I do not want any silliness! This is serious!" He yelled angrily as the teens looked at eachother in surprise, Gobber was almost never like this.

"Uh, Gobber, are you okay?" Fishlegs asked warily as Gobber whipped around to face him, his glare burning into Fishleg's very soul.

"Yes! I'm perfectly fine! All of you need to act more seriously! Do you want to end up like Hiccup?! You need to defend yourselves from those evil monsters! Or else they'll kill you with a smile on their face." He snapped as they all flinched back before inwardly slapping themselves for not remembering, Gobber was like a second father to Hiccup.

"Now! Ready your weapons!" He yelled as he unleashed the Gronkle, making the teens scramble around and dodge the Gronkle's molten blasts.

"Everyone! Get a shield!" Astrid yelled as she dove for for one of the many shields scattered in the middle of the chaotic "battle field".

"Hey! Get your hands off my shield!" Tuffnut exclaimed angrily as he and Ruffnut fought over a shield with a skull on it.

"There are like a million shields!" She yelled.

"Take that one! It has a flower on it, girls like flowers!" He retorted as Ruffnut snatched the shield out of Tuffnut's hands and smacked him on the head with it.

"Oops, now this one has blood on it." She said in disgust as she offered it to him.

"RUFFNUT! TUFFNUT! STOP PLAYING AROUND!" Gobber screamed in anger as they both scrambled up and grabbed two totally different shields before running back into battle.

"How many shot does a Gronkle have!" He yelled.

"5?" Snotlout said unsurely.

"No! 6!" Fishlegs corrected.

"That's enough for all of you! With one extra..." Gobber trailed off as he looked away from the struggling teens and bit his lip.

"AHHHH!" Fishlegs screamed as the Gronkle blasted his shield, making him run for cover.

"RUFF! TUFF! Watch out!" Astrid screamed as she ran in front of the forever bickering twins and took Ruffnut's spear and threw it straight at the Gronkle, who was firing up a molten blast.

"Hey! Now how am I supposed to fight?!" Ruffnut snapped angrily as Astrid turned to face her, every in of her body screamed annoyance and hatred.

"I SAVED YOUR LIVES! SPEARS ARE MADE BY PUTTING A SHARP ROCK ON A STICK! ITS NOT HARD TO MAKE A NEW ONE!" Astrid screamed as both of the twins flinched and looked at eachother nervously.

"Um, Astrid..." Ruffnut trailed off as she pointed to the Gronkle who was divebombing them, fire building its throat as Astrid held up her shield and was thrown back by the force of the blast before the dragon rammed into her, throwing her even farther back and a snap could be heard as Gobber ran up to the Gronkle and yanked it back into its cage before running back over to Astrid.

"Ow." Astrid croaked as she trained to stand up, but a huge bolt of pain shot up her right leg, making her fall back down.

"Astrid, are okay?" He asked as Astrid groaned.

"I can't stand. I think it broke my foot." She muttered as Gobber looked up from her and at the other teens.

"Let this be another lesson for you. A dragon will always go for the kill."

"WHOO-HOO! Yeah! That's what I'm talking about!" Hiccup exclaimed as Toothless landed in the cave and Hiccup jumped off, both of them excitedly shaking.

"That was awesome! I had no idea at you could go that fast!" He exclaimed as Toothless smirked and sat down.

"Oh please. That was nothing. I just couldn't go any faster because you were holding onto my neck. I can create a sonic boom if I want to." Toothless said as Hiccup flopped down on the ground.

"Hey bud? Did I ever tell you how thankful I am for you taking me from Berk?" He asked as Toothless rolled his eyes.

"8 times. I've counted." He said as Hiccup laughed but then looked around.

"Hey? Where's Sky? Wasn't she flying right next to you?" He asked as Toothless shrugged.

"I dunno. She's probably off training again. She needs to be the best teen in the nest." Toothless said.

"Whoa. That sounds exactly like- never mind." Hiccup said as he shook his head and Toothless gave him a confused look.

"Exactly like what?" He asked.

"Well, back in my old village, there was a girl that used to be my best friend. But then she became obsessed with being the best in the village and we just kinda grew apart." Hiccup explained.

"Oh duh! I'm stupid! How the hell did I forget to ask you?! How old even are you?" He asked.

"Oh, I'm 15, you?" Hiccup asked as Toothless smirked as gave him a playful nudge.

"Same here!" He exclaimed as Hiccup laughed.

"That's awesome! Immature teenagers for life!" He exclaimed as they both high-fixed and Sky flew in with a mouthful of fish.

"What kind you you want Toothless? Salmon or Icelandic Cod?" Sky asked as Toothless let out a slight growl of annoyance.

"I told you to call me GreyScale." He said.

"And I told you 'yes' when you asked me to be your mate. Now choose, salmon or cod" She said in annoyance as Toothless rolled his eyes.

"Cod." He muttered as Sky threw him the fish, which he easily caught and swallowed in a second.

"Hey Tooth, can you cook this?" Hiccup asked as he threw Toothless is salmon, which he shot an exetremely light plasma blast at, cooking it instantly.

"Hey! Softy! Mom told us that you kidnapped a human!" A voice yelled as 4 Night Furies flew into the cave as Toothless rolled his eyes.

"I am not a softy!" Toothless snapped as one of the Night Furies, which was a dark pale purple and had pale orange eyes rolled her eyes.

"Uh, yeah you are. Any of us would've killed that human without a second thought." She said.

"Hiccup, these are my siblings; Speedy (girl), DarkMoon (girl), Quicksilver (boy), and Acid (boy). Guys, this is Hiccup, my good friend." Toothless introduced, making sure to put emphasis on the word 'good' as he pointed to the same Night Fury he was talking to before, a deep vivid purple one with sapphire blue eyes, a jet black one with silvery eyes, and another jet black one with eyes similar to Toothless's, except they were a little more yellow. (In that order.)

"Good? You've only known eachother for 3 days." DarkMoon said.

"You can make good friends in 3 days." Toothless stated.

"Oh, mom also told us that you go by Toothless now." Quicksilver said as Toothless groaned and face-palmed before looking back up at his snickering siblings and nodded.

"Okay, yes, I go by Toothless now." He sighed.

"I can call you GreyScale if you want and it'll undo all of these 'Toothless' jokes." Hiccup offered as Toothless shook his head and smirked.

"Nah, 'cause then I can't make fun of your name. Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third." Toothless snickered as Hiccup rolled his eyes and Toothless's siblings burst into laughter.

"Yeah, yeah, laugh it all up. You have no idea how stupid the names of some other teens in my village are." Hiccup said as Sky, who was still laughing, managed to give him a confused look.

"How much worse could they get?" She snickered as Hiccup laughed.

"A lot. There is Fishlegs, Snotlout, a boy named Dogsbreath, but he was killed in a raid last year, and uh, oh yeah! Ruffnut and Tuffnut." He said as they all continued to laugh.

"Do the parents in your tribe just hate their kids?" Speedy asked.

"No, they just believe that hideous names can frighten off games and trolls." He explained.

"That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard." Sky said.

"Yeah, our parents just name us according to our eye color, scale color, or something that will strike fear into the hearts of our enemies." Toothless said.

"Oh, that makes sense. Sky, GreyScale, Winter..." Hiccup trailed off as they all nodded.

"We gotta bounce. It's our turn to go get fish for everyone." Acid said as they all waved bye and fly away.

"Do they all just move and go in one small pack?" Hiccup asked as Toothless shrugged.

"They are all within 2 years of eachother. Winter and I are the oldest and youngest by a long-shot." He explained as he looked at Hiccup, who he just realized was covered in dirt and filth.

"Do you happen to have a pair of extra clothing?" He asked as Hiccup rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, like I was holding a pair of clothes when you took me. Even though I really wish I did have a change of clothes. I feel disgusting." Hiccup grimaced.

"Well you aren't wrong." Sky added.

"There's a nearby village that we raid if it we need to. You wanna go and steal a pair of clothes from there?" Toothless offered as Hiccup gave him an unsure look.

"Are you sure? I don't really feel right stealing." He said.

"Come on! Stealing gives you a rush of excitement! And it's not like your stealing money. It's just a nessisarry change of clothes." Sky said as Toothless nodded and Hiccup groaned and nodded.

"Okay, okay, where is this village?" He asked as the Night Furies both smirked and nodded.

"Now that's what I'm talking about! The village isn't far. It's about 20 minutes away." Toothless said as Hiccup jumped onto his back and the three of them took off, blending into the almost completely back sky.
