Chapter: 4 – Creating a nest.
It has been two days since Toothless and I have left Berk, trying to find the perfect location to build our nest, which we did many times but they all felt wrong to us so we kept on moving. Through these two days, I've helped Toothless get used to the new powers that she has as well as help her create her own thu'ums, which ended up with her creating a thu'um that when used on someone will cause them to lose their sight for a couple of minutes. Another one of her thu'ums will cause the shadows around her to conceal her from view, while another makes the shadows attack anyone around her or defend her. She also made a thu'um with my help that gives life to a shadow, causing the shadow to take the form of a Night Fury and then will fight by her side.
After many hours spent looking for a location for our nest and helping Toothless with her powers, we eventually came across a landmass that is isolated by miles of sea around it that felt right to us. The land mass mostly consisted of mountain ranges, which has forests filling up space between them, the mountains themselves being tall enough to have their peaks covered in snow. After an hour of looking around and liking what we have seen, we flew to the middle of the land mass to find a decent sized cave we could sleep in for the night.
(Next day)
Standing by the entrance of the cave as I gaze over the forest below, listening to the birds singing their morning melodies with a smile on my face as I do.
"It's so peaceful here."
Toothless says as she comes up to my side and then leans herself against me, causing me to look to her with a smile as I drape my right wing over her, which I use to pull her closer to me.
"Yes it is, and there's enough space for all the dovah (dragons) at the queens leret, (nest,) with also room for more."
I say as I nuzzle the side of her face, causing her to purr and to nuzzle me back with a warm smile. Staying like this for a while with Toothless resting her head against my chest with her eyes close, we enjoy the melodies from the birds that hovers in the air filling the whole forest with music.
"When are we going to take care of the queen now that we have found the location for our leret? (nest?)"
Toothless asks as she takes her head away from my chest and looks at me, while I turn my head around to face her with a thoughtful look.
"We could kill her today so that it's dealt with, but we should call any of the dovah (dragons) that live here first so that they know that we are making a leret (nest) here. As well as inform them that we are going to kill the queen, which will mean all the dovah (dragons) from her leret (nest) will be coming here."
I answer, getting a nod from Toothless, only for her to tilt her head as she gains a concerned look.
"What if some of the dovah (dragons) here don't want the dovah (dragons) from the queen's leret (nest) to come here, or for us to build our leret (nest) here?"
Toothless asks in concern as she looks at me in the eyes, causing my eyes to turn blood red at the question as I turn my gaze over the landmass in front of us.
"Then they will see why Alduin was feared."
(Time skip)
Looking over to Toothless who is next to me, both of us currently on the summit of the tallest mountain, she looks at me with a smile and nods her head. Smiling back, I take a big inhale of air before letting out a bellowing roar that travels across all of the landmasses after I stop roaring the air is filled with deathly silence. Gazing around for a while as nothing happens, I look over to Toothless with a raised eyebrow in confusion, only to snap my gaze back to where I was looking as multiple roars all over the mountain range are heard. Looking around I see numerous different species of dragons flying towards us, the dragons consisting of Monstrous Nightmares, Hideous Zipplebacks, Gronckles, Deadly Nadders, Terrible Terrors and even some Changewings.
Taking a look around at all the dragons as they come to a stop and hover around us, while they gaze Toothless and I over with looks of confusion.
"Why did you call us?"
A Monstrous Nightmare growls out in anger, causing my eyes to turn blood red and to narrow onto the Nightmare, this catching some of the dragons by surprise at how my eyes suddenly changed colour.
"I would watch your tone joor, (mortal,) before I rip your tongue out."
I snarl out as I start glowing blood red and my alpha aura oozes out of me, which makes him hover back as he looks at me in fear. This catching all the dragons' attention as they all look at my glowing body with wide eyes and to also to gasp in surprise at me being able to speak the Vikings language.
"Calm down my liin, (mate,) you don't want to scare them all away."
Toothless says with humour as she nuzzles her head against mine, causing me to stop glowing and for my eyes to turn back to their normal colour. This also catching the dragons by surprise as the Night Fury could also speak the Vikings language.
"My mate and I will be making our leret (nest) here. I'm sure you all know about the queen, the one that has been enslaving dragons to do her bidding and eating them if they don't bring enough food back for her. Today I and my mate here will be killing her, when we have killed her we will be bringing all the dragons that are under her control back here, to join our nest."
I say, causing the dragons to look at me with frowns.
"Kill the queen? You must be nuts to try to kill her, you both got a death wish or something? She's out of your league."
A Deadly Nadder says with humour as some of the dragons snicker at what she said, causing Toothless to take a step away from me with a worried look amid at the Nadder as she knows I have Alduin's pride. 'Out of our league!' The voice in my head roars out in outrage as I turn my head towards the Nadder with my eyes turning red.
"What did you say?"
I snarl out quietly as all the dragons stop snickering and look towards the Nadder with alarm, while the Nadder whimpers under my gaze.
"No-noth-nothing!"
The Nadder quickly stutters out in panic as she stares into my glowing blood red eyes in fear, causing me to snort out a cloud of black smoke as I look away from her.
"Will you join our leret? (nest?)"
Toothless asks, causing all the dragons to come out of their feared states as they look at each other for a while, conversing to each other with their eyes then looking back to Toothless and me when they are finished.
"We will only join if you kill the queen first, then you will have proved to us that you both are powerful enough to be our alphas."
A Gronckle says as all the dragons nod at what he said, causing Toothless and I to gain a smile as we look to each other.
(Time skip)
After some time explaining to the dragons as to why we could talk the language of the Vikings, which lead them to find out that we are gods, the dragons started to treat us with respect with slight fear because of what we are. When we finished explaining everything and making sure everything was ready for the new dragons at our nest, we made our way to the queen's nest.
(Time skip, queen's nest)
Gazing down at the queen's nest as we circle around it, I and Toothless gain a frown as we see a problem.
"How are we going to get the queen out of there without bringing the leret (nest) down on all the dovah (dragons) that are inside?"
Toothless asks as she is in deep thought, the question more directed at herself than me.
"You could go inside the leret (nest) and spread the news to all the dovah (dragons) that the queen is going to be challenged by an alpha. Use that thu'um you made to not be seen as you spread the news around as well."
I answer, getting a nod from Toothless as it is better than the plans she was thinking up. Flying up to me, she gives the side of my face a lick then dives down to the nest into one of the many entrances of the nest.
Looking over the nest for some minutes, I gain a smile as I see dragons start to pour out of every exit of the nest, while a pitch black cloud of mist flies over to me and disperses as Toothless comes out of it. Smiling at her as she smiles back, we turn to look at the nest as the last of the dragons leave it.
"Remember the plan?"
I ask while I don't take my eyes of the nest as we wait for the queen to come out.
"I attack her from a distance, weakening her as well as giving you support, while you go in close and deal physical damage to her."
Toothless says, getting a nod from me as we stare at the nest and start to get irritated when the queen isn't coming out.
"It looks like we will need to make her come out."
Toothless snarls out as she looks over to me and gains a smirk, which I return as we look back to the nest.
"Fus! Ro! Dah!" (Force! Balance! Push!)
I and Toothless thu'um out at the same time, causing our thu'ums to combine as they race towards the nest and when the combined thu'um makes contact with the nest, it shakes under the power of the thu'um. Gazing at the cloud of dust that our combined thu'um created as well as the falling rock that broke off from the nest, we wait as we stare into the dust until a furious bellowing roar comes from the middle of the nest.
Smirking, I turn my head to Toothless and nod my head at her, which she returns before she flies up into the clouds out of sight. Looking back at the nest, I gaze at the side of the nest as it is broken open as the queen smashes her way out of it, then looks around for who attacked her nest with madness in her eyes.
Angling my wings, I dive down towards the queen's face as she catches sight of me and opens her mouth, ready to snap her jaws onto me as I close in on her. When I'm close to her and she is ready to close her jaws a high pitch whistle is heard as Toothless dives out of the clouds, letting off a shot at the queens face before pulling back up into the clouds.
Using the opening that Toothless gave me, I collide into the queen's face and latch onto her with my claw as I start to slash at her eyes, while she shrieks out in pain when I rip one off her eyes out with a claw. While I'm clawing and ripping out the queen's eyes, Toothless keeps on diving down and bombarding the queen's wings with her natural shots as well as thu'ums so that they are useless.
Seeing that I have done enough damage to the queen's eyes, I beat my wings and launch off of the queens faces, which is filled with deep gashes that are heavily bleeding as well as most of her eyes being gouged out. Hovering in the air as the queen is swaying her head around as she is roaring out in pain, while spewing out flames around her.
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU ALL!"
The queen roars out in madness as she starts to spray out her flames out up in the air around her, while swaying her tail around as she tries to hit anything around her. Looking to her tail and watching it as it sways around, I gain a frown as the tail is going to be an annoyance if it isn't dealt with. Diving down again, I stay low to the floor as I come around to her tail then beat my wings powerfully, causing me to zip up towards her tail as I aim my snout to the base of her tail.
"Liz! Slen! Nus!" (Ice! Flesh! Statue!)
I thu'um out, causing a sheet of ice to shoot out of my mouth and to hit the base of the queens tail, which spreads to conceal the whole base of her tail as it stops her ability to move it. Roaring out in outrage at not being able to move her tail, the queen turns her head towards my directions and is about to spew her fire at me, only for her to halt as Toothless dives down out of the clouds again.
"Vokun! Jaaril! Iidah!" (Shadow! Protect! Attack!)
Toothless thu'ums out at the queen as she soars past her and then pulls up, back into the clouds. The thu'um causing four shadow tendrils to form and launch out of the queen's shadow, piercing through her knees then wrapping around them before yanking downwards. This causing the queen to roar out in pain as she crashes into the ground, which kicks up dust as she tries to get up as the shadow tendrils fade away, only to cause her more pain as her legs are completely useless to her now.
"NO! I CAN'T DIE, I'M THE QUEEN! YOU WILL OBEY ME LIKE EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD!"
The queen roars out in panic as she thrashes on the ground, this causing my eyes to turn red as I growl and dive down towards her, landing on her side harshly. Gripping a hold of her with my claws as they embed themselves into her, I draw back my head as I aim my snout at her chest.
"Fus! Ro! Dah!" (Force! Balance! Push!)
I thu'um out point blank into her chest, causing her to let out an agonising scream of pain as loud cracks of her ribs breaking is sounded throughout the area, while her chest caves inwards under the pressure of the thu'um.
Jumping off of her and landing on the floor, I see the queen hardly breathing as she quivers in agonizing pain as the life slowly leaves her eyes. Narrowing my eyes at her dying form, my mind wonders off to the new thu'um that I made, while I was helping Toothless make her own.
"Gahrot! Mindah! Suleyk!" (Steal! Knowledge! Power!)
I thu'um out at the queens dying form as Toothless lands by my side, the thu'um causing the queen's body to break down into arrays of light that are absorbed by me, only leaving the bones of the queen behind. Think of how the Dragonborn would steal the souls of the dragons he/she killed, but also getting all the knowledge and power that the dragon holds when he/she kills them. Going through all the knowledge that the queen had as I destroy all the knowledge that I do not need, I feel my power rise slightly as well as my scales becoming lava resistant.
Looking over to Toothless, I see her looking at the skeleton of the queen with shock and surprise before she turns her head towards me.
"What happened? And what was that thu'um you used on her?"
Toothless asks curiosity as she gazes over the queen's skeleton remains, the question getting me to smile at her.
"When I was helping you create your own thu'um, I came up with the idea of a thu'um that will steal the knowledge and power of the one it is used on. But the opponent needs to be very weak, to begin with, or you need to fight them until they are weak enough to use it on them. I thought this was a great opportunity to use it on a strong opponent and now I have lava resistant scales from absorbing her power."
I say with a smirk at the end, while Toothless pouts at finding out that my scales are lava-resistant, which causes me to let out a chuckle at how adorable she looks. Hearing the beats of wings, we turn our heads to the direction the noise is coming from to see all the dragons that were in the nest coming towards us. Landing on the beach of the nest, all the dragons look at the skeleton of the queen with wide eyes of disbelief and then look over to us. Looking around at all the dragons as they stare at us with wonder, I turn my head to the right as a Deadly Nadder takes a hesitant step towards us.
"You… you killed the queen."
The Deadly Nadder whispers out in shock as she stares at us in awe, gazing at us then over to the queen's body before turning and bowing down to us in respect.
"I would be honoured to be under your command, Alphas."
The Deadly Nadder says with respect, while all the other dragons start to bow down to us as well, calling out alpha as they do so. Looking around the mass of dragons bowing down to us in respect, I and Toothless raise our heads up in pride as we gain a smile at them wanting us to be their alphas.
(A week later)
Over the week all the dragons got settled into their new nest, making their own nesting areas in caves or down in the forests, which lead to one of the Gronckles finding an extinct volcano that has diamonds and other valuable gems coating its walls. Seeing how useful these diamonds and gems can be, I told everyone to stay away from the volcano.
I have also been spending some more time creating new thu'ums with Toothless that may come in handy in the future, one of the thu'ums being able to control stone. With this thu'um, I and Toothless have started to clear room for a stronghold, which will be bigger and more defensive than Skuldafn is. The only problem to this is that we need some humans under our control to build the place, which we do not have. Thinking about this problem and how useful humans can be, I started to create a thu'um that will transform me into a humanoid shape. I found out when I finished the thu'um that I can only stay as a human for a limited time before I turn back to my original form. Basically, the thu'um works like how the ability to turn into a werewolf does, only you can turn back and forth any time you want, but you only can stay in the anthro form for some hours like the werewolf. After finishing the thu'um, I and Toothless used boar hide to create makeshift pouches, which we filled with gems from the volcano before heading out to find trader Johann.
(Flashback)
Hovering in the clouds out of sight as I stare down at trader Johann's ship, I turn my head to the right and nod my head at Toothless, who is by my side before we both dive down to the ship. Seeing trader Johann's panic as he sees us coming towards him, which makes me gain a mirth filled smile when I see him jump inside of an empty basket to hide.
Landing on the boats deck, which groans under my and Toothless weight, I make my way over to the basket with the pouch of gems held in my jaws. Moving my jaws over the top of the basket, I drop the pouch of gems into the basket, which gets a startled yell of fright from trader Johann as he jumps and falls out of the basket. Looking down at him as he stares up at me with wide terrified eyes, I indicate with my head towards the pouch of gems, which gets a confused look from him as he reaches out with a trembling hand towards the pouch.
Picking up the pouch of gems and feeling the weight of it, trader Johann opens it slowly as he keeps his eyes on me and then gradually looks down into the opened pouch, which gets a gasp of amazement from him as he sees all the gems inside of it.
"I assume that I have your attention now."
I say, getting trader Johann to snap his head up to me with wide eyes as I smile down at him.
"You spoke!"
Trader Johann yells out in surprise, which gets a chuckle from me.
"Yes, I can talk, I and my mate are here as we want to buy some things from you."
I say, while I look around at everything that is on the boat, which calms trader Johann down as I'm not here to kill or eat him.
Standing up with the pouch of gems in his right hand, he looks at me then to Toothless, who is walking around checking everything out that is on view.
"I, eh, have fish if that is what you are after."
Trader Johann says as he indicates with his hand towards baskets of fish, which I and Toothless look to but shake our heads, getting a surprised look from trader Johann.
"We are not here for fish, but for… mun(human) things. Kopraan! Vuld! Muneyd!" (Body! Transform! Humanoid!)
I say then thu'um, causing gold fire to surround my whole body as trader Johann jumps back in fright and then to gasp when the fire surrounding me vanishes as his jaw hangs open in shock. Now standing in front of him instead of the dragon is a 9-foot humanoid being, which looks like a dragon in human shape. Hiccup looks the same in his anthro form, aside from having feet and hands instead of paws as well as his neck not being long. Looking at me with wide eyes, trader Johann eyes roles to the back of his head as he faints, falling over onto his back like a door being knocked down. Looking down at the unconscious form of trader Johann, while I blink a couple of times, I let out an annoyed sigh as I realise it's going to be a couple of hours before he wakes up.
(End of flashback)
After trader Johann woke up and some explaining of what as well as who I am, trader Johann went back to his usual cheerful self, meaning he started to call me master Hiccup, which got a snicker from Toothless. When we were finished getting everything we needed, which so happened to be nearly everything on trader Johann's ship, we called for some dragons at our nest to help take everything back to our nest. Leaving trader Johann with his ship now partly empty, but him with a smile as he holds a pouch of gems that is more than payment needed for all the thing we bought.
Now with equipment and material that we needed for the stronghold, we carried on doing the layout of the place with help from the dragons in the nest, them doing most of the heavy work or clearing out rubble. I sketched out the floor plans for the stronghold and how it would look, I also started to make diagrams of weapons that would defend the place. It turned out that the Dragonborn had a photographic memory, so I went through all his memories of when he saw anything that was made by the Dwemer. So with these memories, I started to write down all the machinery that the Dwemer made and using the master smith knowledge from the Dragonborn as well as my already brilliant mind to figure out how they worked. Another week passed as I deciphered and learned everything about the machinery the Dwemer made and then started to implement the mechanics that the Dwemer used into the stronghold plans.
Through the weeks I have also noticed changes with Toothless, which is mostly her new mode swings, one-minute being kind then the next minute trying to rip you apart. These mode swings are not directed at me thankfully, as when I'm around her she is always cuddling up to me or following me like a puppy, which I don't mind. Only lately have I figured out what's causing her mode swings as I have noticed that her stomach has been getting bigger, which filled in the missing dot that let me connect everything together.
(Week later)
Moving into the cave, I look over to where Toothless is resting and gain a warm smile as I walk over to her. Moving behind her, I lay down next to her back then grab a hold of her as I carefully pull her against me as I rest my head on the side of her chest. Looking down to her stomach, which is more swollen than it was a week before, I move my jaws forward and drag my tongue over her stomach, which gets a moan from her.
"How are you, my liin?" (mate?)
I say warmly as I drape my wing over her stomach and bring my snout to the side of her face, so I can give it a loving lick as well.
"Fine, now that you are here."
Toothless says with another moan as I lick the side of her neck, the sound of her moaning making me gain arousal, which I bring under control as I don't want to do anything when she is pregnant.
"How long do you think it will be before you are ready to lay our eggs?"
I say as she shifts in my grip so that her back is firmly pressed against my chest and stomach.
"Probably one more week, then around a month for the eggs to hatch."
Toothless answers as she looks towards her stomach with a loving look, while I gain a smile as I lightly rub her stomach with my wing.
"How have you been? You are gone most of the day working on that stronghold."
Toothless asks with curiosity, which makes me look to her.
"Well, I have finished all of the planning for the stronghold and the place where it is going to be built is ready, the layout of the place is done as well. All is needed is for me to make the bricks for the place as well as getting the metals for all the mechanics for the place as well. I also need to start to look for some mun(humans) to do the labour and building of the place as I can't do it all by myself. But getting mun(humans) to help is going to be a problem."
I answer, the last bit of what I said in annoyance as I snort out some smoke.
"What about that bend will thu'um? You could use it on those outcasts you told me about, to do your bidding."
Toothless says, with some fear at mentioning the thu'um as the power of it to be able to make anyone be under your control shouldn't be played around with.
"I could, but they will only be doing the labour work as I want some mun(humans) that are willing to be under our command, like how Alduin had people worshiping him. But I will treat them differently because Alduin treated them as if they were bugs and that's the reason why a lot of them turned on him."
I say, which gets a nod from Toothless and a look of relief at me not going down the same path that Alduin did.
Smiling up at me, she leans the side of her head against mine as she purrs, while I smile back and nuzzle the side of her head lovingly.
"I think it's time we go asleep, I'm sure you need it with your condition."
I say warmly as I tighten my grip on her slightly and bring my jaws down to hers, bringing her into a loving deep kiss as we both moan into each other's mouth, while our tongues caress one another. Breaking the kiss, I lick her neck again and rest my head on the side of hers as she closes her eyes with a smile on her lips. Gazing at her as she falls asleep, I move my head so it is touching hers and fall asleep with a smile on my lips as well.
[Author's note: Hoped you liked the chapter! Anyone figured out what's the voice in Hiccups head is? And feel free to PM me any dragon names you think that Hiccup and Toothless hatchlings should be called! Anyway! Have a nice day and I see you the next time I do!]
