I heard Hiccup approach and went to greet him.

"Hey Bud" he said to me as he walked to the pond and patted me on the nose. I followed him.

He placed down something he was carrying and placed down onto the ground. He brushed of the excess dirt and showed me a ...

... saddle. I growled under my breath and ran. He may be my first and only friend but I will not let him saddle me like a horse. He started to chase after me but suddenly stopped.

"Fine!" he called, " if you don't want to fly, I won't help you."

I saw him place the saddle down and get comfortable on the ground, with his back facing me.

I pawed my way over to him. He turned his head to face away from me. I nudged his shoulder and he looked at me.

I nudged the saddle.

"Do you want to wear the saddle?" asked Hiccup.

I nodded.

He sighed.
"Okay then" Hiccup got up and tightened the saddle around me. It didn't feel uncomfortable at all. It felt like it belonged there.

"Can I climb on?" asked Hiccup, smiling at me. I rolled my eyes and allowed him to climb on.

We were on our way to being a whole.

And it felt good.
