The dragon kept her large eyes trained on Nora before letting out a soft rumbling noise and leaning her snout into Nora's hand.
Nora grinned. " I think it likes me." She mused ask she stroked the young dragon.
Hiccup was still nervous, " Nora...? W-What if he-"
" It's a she Hic." Nora interrupted quickly.
Hiccup fought the urge to roll his eyes. " What if she hurts you?" He asked as he gently pulled her away from the young living flamethrower.
" Calm down would you. I don't plan on dieing any time soon." Nora said with with a grin.
The dragon let out a short growl as she flicked her cobalt tail back and forth, as she watched the young vikings.
Hiccup wasn't convinced. " She could still hurt you! It's what they do. They kill hundreds of us a year and steal our food!"
Nora rolled her eyes slightly. " Yet, we've killed thousands of them. " she grumbled moving back to the dragons side and stroking her. " You need to relax and realize that not all dragons want to kill you." She said softly.
The young dragon tensed, ears twitching as she loosened her leathery wings.
" DUCK! " Nora yelled diving for Hiccup, knocking him to the ground, as the dragon shot into the air and flew away.
Hiccup yelped as Nora tackled him to the ground, to avoid the now frantic dragon. " W-what just happened?" he stumbled over his words.
" Shh! Shut it!" Nora hissed listening closely to the sounds that surrounded them. " You hear that?" she asked quietly as she tilted her head, looking up at the quickly darkening sky. " We need to get home. Now!" She said urgently as she pulled Hiccup to his feet.
Hiccup was slightly confused but he followed Nora without question.
Nora was mumbling to her self only half aware that he was even following her. " That dragon looked almost...scared. Why would it just take off like that?" she said mostly to her self. " How could I lat it get away like that!? DAMN IT!" she cured her self.
" That's what your worried about!? My dad's going to have our heads on spikes for being gone so long! Forget the stupid dragon!" He snapped at her, pulling her through the quickly darkening forest.
Nora stopped suddenly. " Forget the dragon? Your kidding me right?" Her voice was dangerously low. " I finally caught a dragon, got close to it, touched it. It trusted me! and your telling me to just forget about it!? " She snarled in his face. " Your just like your dad!" She shoved him back. " I hate you. " She snapped as she bolted for Raven's Point.
" NORA! Nora wait! Please...?" Hiccup called after her, tears welling in his eyes. " I-I didn't mean it...I'm sorry." He whispered. He turned and started back towards the village again knowing she would hate him even more for going after her. He got with in site of the village and relaxed a slight bit. The light of the torches lead him the rest of the way home.
" Were have you been." Stoic glared at his son.
" I-I was in the woods with Nora..." He mumbled not meeting his fathers eyes.
Stoic kept his glare. " I told you to be home before dark."
Hiccup nodded nervously. " I know... I'm sorry dad." as he went to his room.

Nora kicked at the stones under her feet as she walked in the moon light. ' How does he think I can just forget? I caught a dragon! That's more then he's ever done! It could have killed me, but it didn't! It trusted me...' she let her mind wonder more. ' It didn't try to kill me... that could mean that dragons don't always go for the kill..' She sighed, regretting what she had said to Hiccup. ' He's never going to talk to me again...How could I say that stuff to him?!' She sat on the edge of Raven's Point and looked down to see the waves crash against the jagged rocks some forty feet below. She swung her legs lazily as she tipped her head back, green eyes taking in the wide open, star filled sky.

It was getting late and Nora was still not back, this was worrying Gobber as he worked with the hot iron as he molded it on to a wooden shield. ' Where is that girl?' He sighed.
As he finished the final sword he froze, listening intently. " Sweet baby Thor in a thunder storm. Dragons." He got his battle axe and weapons cart, heading outside to join the soon raging battle.

Nora quietly made her way back by the light of the moon. she was so deep in though that she took no notice of the brightly burning buildings in the village. She sighed, wrapping her self further into her own little world that not even the sound of Monstrous Nightmare wings beating just behind her snapped her out of it. Nora's eyes grew wide as she was plucked off the earth by huge talons and was carried off.
