Chapter 13

Power training

"So what power do you want to train first?"Hiccup asked Jack as they walked out of the healer's hut.

"I think we should practice water first,since he'll be coming from across the sea. Maybe I could stop him."Jack said. "Let's go to the beach to practice that."Merida said. "Agreed."Jack said. Elsa and Jack transformed into their dragon selves while Hiccup,Punzie and Merida got on their dragons and they flew off to the beach. Two minutes later they made it to the beach.

Merida,Hiccup and Punzie got off their dragons. Toothless,Agnus and Pascal ran to the forest. Elsa transformed into her human self. She turned to Jack,who didn't change into his human self. "I'm guessing your powers only work when you're your dragon self?"she said. "I guessing yes."Jack said. Elsa yelped in shock and jumped back. "Elsa,what's wrong with you?"Merida asked. She pointed a shaky finger at Jack.

"H-h-he ju-just spoke."she stammered. "Elsa you know that Jack can't talk when he's his dragon self."Hiccup said. "Umm I'm pretty sure I am talking right now."Jack said. Hiccup,Merida and Punzie yelped and jumped back in fright. "I told you!"Elsa said to them. "Jack how are you talking right now?"Punzie asked. "Umm...like how I usually talk."Jack replied,unsure why they were freaking out. "Jack you are your dragon self right now so you shouldn't be able to talk."Hiccup said. Jack looked at himself and,as Hiccup said,he was still his dragon self. "Oh well...I don't know."Jack said. "Hang on I think I know why,"Elsa said. "It's because you have Talos's powers which only a god can have. So that means you're a god and since you're a god you can talk as your dragon self."

"That's probably it."Jack agreed. "Well that's good to know,"Hiccup said. "I'm still going to have to get used to this."he added. They all laughed. "Ok,we said we would help Jack with his powers so let's start."Merida said. "Ok...um how do I do this?"Jack asked. "Well from what I read to control the water all you have to do is concentrate,raise your wings and the water should follow your wings movement. You move them up water goes up,move them sideways water goes sideways. Got it?"Hiccup asked. Jack nodded.

He closed his eyes and concentrated.

Slowly he lifted his wings up and kept them like that. He something inside of him stir,like the power as reacting to Jack's movement. He opened his eyes and looked at the sea. The water had risen up in the formation of a wave and loomed over them. "I did it! I did it!"Jack cried happily. "Yes you did Jack. On your first try too."Elsa said. In his happiness he accidently let his wings go down. The wave wavered then fell towards them.

"Wave!"Hiccup said. They turned around ran,though they didn't get far. The wave crashed down on the beach while swallowing everyone up. The wave went back into the sea. Elsa,Merida,Jack,Hiccup and Puznie were on the beach soaked and coughing out sea water. Merida was the first person to get up. "Jack!"she shouted angrily. She glared at Jack and walked up to him,hands clenched into fists. "Umm Merida what are you doing?"Jack asked nervously backing away. "Once I get my hands on you I'll...I'll."She lunged forward towards Jack. Hiccup at the last second grabbed her by the waist and held her tight. "Oh no you don't."he said and dragged her back. "Your lucky I don't have my bow and arrow right now."Merida said,fighting against Hiccup's grip but failed. Jack sighed in relief. "Thanks Hiccup."he said. "No problem,"Hiccup said,holding Merida tight. "Besides,if Merida kills you who will protect us?"Hiccup joked. "True."Jack said with a chuckle.

"Let's try that again,"Elsa said,wringing water out her braid. "This time,try to keep this wave away from us."she added looking at Jack. He winced. "Sorry."he said. "It's fine just be careful."Elsa said. He nodded. He turned to the sea and moved his wings to the sides. The water moved to the right and left,creating a pathway between the two waves. He slowly brought his wings down. The waves wavered then slowly came down making the pathway between the two waves disappear. "Well the water power is easy enough to control,"Jack said to the others. "Which power is next?"

"Wind should be next one to practice."Elsa said. "That makes sense,"Punzie agreed. "I mean,since Valor is coming he'll be airborne right? So using your wind power could make things very difficult for him." "Ok. Wind it is."Jack said. "Alright,for wind it's basically the same thing for water except you don't have to concentrate."Hiccup said. "Sounds easy."Jack replied. He took his wings and clapped them together creating a loud boom. The gust of wind was so strong that Hiccup,Jack,Punzie,Merida and Elsa were blown off their feet and was launched into the air. They landed on the sand with a thud.

Well that could've gone better Jack thought as he got up. He shook the sand off him and walked to the others. "You guys good?"he asked. "Yeah."Hiccup said,getting sand out of his hair. "It seems like the harder I hit my wings together,the stronger my wind power is."Jack said. He brought his wings up and,lightly,clapped them together. He felt a light breeze.

"Fascinating,"Hiccup said. "So the wind power is based on your strength. That's good to know." Jack nodded and flung his left wind to the side. The gust of wind pushed to the left. He flung his right wing to the right and gusts of wind pushed to the right. Controlling these powers may not be so hard after all Jack thought. The rest of the day they trained his powers.

While training they realized that some of his powers were attached to his emotions. For example,if he was got mad he could breathe fire,despite being a Forstwind,and the temperature would increase and if he was using his earth power he could cause violent earthquakes. For his ice power it was like using his frost and with his spirit power he was able to call the dead,human or dragon. I bit more training and I just might be able to defeat Valor Jack thought. Once and for all.
