I'm back and this chapter's going to be great. I don't have much to say so I'll keep it brief. I've decided to call Toothless' glowing form Alpha Form. Tell me what you think about the name. On with the story my loyal subjects.


Chapter 7: Day Two: Part 1

*The Cove*

Lars' P.O.V

I woke up to the sun shining in my eyes. I let my eyes adjust to the sunlight before I did anything else. When my eyes adjusted I noticed that Durga was still asleep, on her side. We slept in the Cove the night before because Durga and I were used to sleeping in caves. Durga's wings were wrapped around me so I wouldn't get cold, but she also had me trapped.

"Durga." I whispered. "Durga." I repeated, this time I tapped her wing a bit to try to wake her up.

That caused her to groan and hold me tighter, bringing me closer to her body. This made me feel very awkward.

"May as well enjoy it while it lasts." I thought.

Then I remembered something that my Night Fury brother Vasuki used to tell me. "If you have an opportunity to get close to her take it." These words echoed through my mind.

I sighed and hoped that I would one day see my family again. Then, without warning, Durga wrapped her front legs around me and held me close. I turned my head to look at her and saw that she was awake, looking at me. I then realized that she did that on purpose.

"Good morning handsome." She said. I gulped.

"Uh… Good morning." I replied, hesitantly.

"What, no compliment for me Larsy?" she asked. I was surprised.

"Sorry beautiful." I apologized. That made her smile and blush, "You only ever call me 'Larsy' when you're in a very good mood." I said.

"Why wouldn't I be when I always have you by my side?" she asked. She then rubbed her head against me lovingly, starting to purr. I was even more surprised by this. Durga then mumbled something that I couldn't understand.

"What was that?" I asked. She stopped, reared her head back and looked at me in shock.

"I didn't say anything." She said letting me go. I stood up and looked at her.

"I definitely heard you say something." I said, "Please don't make me read your mind Durga, you know as well as I do that I hate doing that."

"I swear I didn't say anything." She said getting up, "And don't read my mind." She said.

I looked at her with disbelief. But I trust her. "Alright, I'm sorry about that." I said.


Durga's P.O.V

"It's ok." I replied. I walked up to him and briefly rubbed him lovingly with my head.

"That was too close." I thought, "He almost heard me say it. I can't say it out loud at any given time. I have to wait for the right moment, or I'll blow it." I thought to myself.

"So Durga, ready to get going?" Lars asked. I nodded my head and he mounted me.

I took off and headed to the village.


We landed and bumped into Hiccup and Toothless.

"Hey there Hiccup." Said Lars.

"Hi Lars." Hiccup responded.

"Hello Nightwing." I greeted.

Nightwing just stood there silent before looking at Hiccup.

"Just like we practiced." Said Hiccup to Nightwing. Nightwing looked at us and let out a sigh.

He then made small roaring sounds before clearing his throat. "Goo… Good… mor… morning." he said. Lars and I were astonished.

"That's amazing!" I shouted happily. "I thought I was unique but I guessed you proved me wrong Nightwing." I said.

"Thank… you… Durga." Said Nightwing with a smile.

"So what else can you say?" Lars asked.

"Not much but I'm quickly learning." Said Nightwing.

"It was a huge pain in the ass." Said Hiccup.

Nightwing glared at Hiccup angrily. "What did you say?" He asked.

"You heard me." Said Hiccup. I was surprised.

"Hiccup, you speak Dragonese?" I asked.

"No, I can just tell what he's saying sometimes." He said. I felt stupid after that.

"Maybe when Toothless can speak English he could teach you Dragonese." Said Lars.

"Why can't you or Durga teach me?" Hiccup asked.

"Because you two are best friends," I said, "you should teach each other." Hiccup looked over at Nightwing.

"What do you think bud? Do you want to teach me your language when you can speak English properly?" Hiccup asked.

"Yes." Nightwing answered. Hiccup nodded and mounted him.

"Let's get to training." Hiccup insisted.


We arrived at the Academy, only to find Hiccup's mother Valka and her dragon Cloudjumper there.

"What are you doing here Mum? asked Hiccup.

"We're going to train with you." She said. "We heard about Voidna. I can't believe she actually came back." Said Valka.

"Came back?" Lars asked. "What do you mean, have you met her before?" he asked.

"Yes." She answered. "Ten years ago we came across a shrine containing the coffin of the previous Dragon Master. You're ancestor Lars." Lars and I were stunned.

"My… ancestor?" he asked. Valka nodded.

"Soon after we entered the shrine we were attacked by a Dragonian." Valka stated.

"Voidna." I said.

"She told us who she was and what she was looking for. She was looking for the new Dragon Master, and she would stop at nothing to kill him." Valka looked directly at Lars. "We were lucky to even escape with our lives." Valka finished.

I looked at Lars and he looked pissed. "Let's start training." He said while walking forward. I was very worried about him, I wanted to make sure he was alright.

"Are you ok Lars?" I asked him. Lars stopped walking.

"Voidna will pay for everything she's done." He said. He then walked off and started talking to everyone about today's training.

Astrid then flew in on Stormfly and landed just behind me. "Sorry we're late everyone." She apologized, dismounting Stormfly.

"Actually you're just on time." I said as she walked past me.

"Hello Durga." Stormfly greeted.

"Hello." I replied. "You won't believe what Nightwing can do." I said. This made Stormfly very curious.

"What is it?" she asked.

"Why don't you go over there and ask him?" I asked. "Tell him I said he has a surprise for you, he'll know what it means." I said.

Stormfly then went over and spoke to Nightwing. I listened in.

"Hey Toothless." She said.

"Hey Stormfly." He responded.

"Durga says you've got a surprise for me, something that you've done." She said. I saw Nightwing's face light up when he realised what she was talking about.

Nightwing cleared his throat. "I… can… speak English." He said. Stormfly jumped back a bit in shock. "Hiccup… taught me… I can… speak to Humans." Stormfly was absolutely amazed by this.

"That's the most incredible thing I've ever seen." Said Stormfly. I walked over to them and joined the conversation.

"Now we have two dragons that can speak the Humans language." I said.

"Hey Durga, can you speak English so that I can pick up a few things?" Nightwing asked. "If you speak their language from now on I can learn better." He said.

"Sure I understand." I said.

"Let's get started!" Lars said to all of us.


Toothless/Nightwing's P.O.V

Training that day was tough, but learning to speak English was even tougher, why couldn't Lars just have translated for me, it would have been easier. Although there would have been times when Lars wouldn't be around to translate, like five years ago when we found the baby Typhoomerang Torch and I saw its mother, so I tried to tell Hiccup but he couldn't understand me. So it was probably for the best for me to learn their language.

"Toothless!" I snapped my attention to Lars. "We're going to work on the incredible power of yours. Sorry Toothless, but I'm going to have to say some things that you're not going to like." Said Lars.

"I'll try not to kill you." I said. Lars chuckled.

"Sorry about this." He said, "I want you to picture Voidna, standing over the dead body of Durga." He said. I looked over at Durga and imagined it. I looked back over in Lars' direction and felt angry.

"How does that make you feel?" he asked.

"Sad, angry." I said.

"Sorry, but anger is what awakens your true power the most." Lars said.

"I know." I said.

"What if Hiccup had been killed by the hands of Voidna?" he asked. "What would you do then?"

"Stop it." I said quietly. My rage growing each time I thought of it, even though I tried my hardest not to think of it.

"What about Stormfly?" he asked. I widened my eyes in shock. Not Stormfly. "Picture her dead at Voidna's feet, never to return to the living, never to return to you!" he shouted. That's when I lost it.

"SHUT UP!" I shouted. I changed to my Alpha Form and charged at him with incredible speed. Lars dodged my head-butt and I crashed into one of the Dragon holding pens, braking through the door, causing dust to fly out.

I then turned around and walked out through the dust. "Stop it; stop filling my mind with these thoughts!" I yelled. I gasped slightly, realizing that I had just spoke English. Everyone looked at me with wide eyes. I reverted and ran past everyone and ran out of the academy.

"Toothless wait!" I heard Hiccup's voice yell my name. I ignored it and kept running.


*Hiccup's House*

I burst through the door and into my house, I ran upstairs and circled around.

"What the hell was that?" I asked myself. I spoke English again. I shook it off like it was nothing. "What is wrong with me? Why is this happening to me?" I continued to ask myself. Just then, I heard something at the window, I turned around and saw Stormfly perched at the window.

"Hey there Toothless." She said.

"Stormfly?" I said. I got angry at myself.

"Why are you so angry that you can speak English?" she asked. I stood silent. "This isn't a bad thing Toothless." She said, "This could be a great opportunity."

"You really think so?" I asked speaking Dragonese again.

"I know so." She said. I thought for a moment and nodded. "I noticed that you lost your temper after Lars made you imagine me dead." She said. I froze and then looked at her, she looked right back. We leaned slowly towards each other, our snouts getting closer to each other. Stormfly pressed her lips against mine, I pressed back.

This moment seemed to go on for ages as we enjoyed a passionate kiss. Stormfly reared her head back in need of air, I did the same. We stared at each other.

"That was nice." She said.

"It was." I said. We stared at each other for a moment.

"We should get going." Said Stormfly, breaking the silence.

"Alright." I said. We flew out the window and headed for the Academy.


That was painful to write. Not in a bad way, it was just hard to write. So I won't be doing author's notes at the end of chapters if it's a major cliff-hanger. That's all. XenoX out.
