Okay I forgot to say one thing about Heather: She lost both her parents, foster and real, and her own brother destroyed her entire village. That alone is enough to beat Hiccup at the my-life-is-worse-than-yours game. Okay that was weird. Sorry. Back to the story! You have no idea what's gonna happen.*Smiles and cackles evilly* Enjoy! Oh, and sorry I took so long... again.

I woke up the next morning with Shadow hanging off my neck and Midnight upside down on my back, her back left leg twitching. I slowly tilted my head close to the ground to get Shadow off, and carefully picked up Midnight by her tail and set her on the ground next to her sister. I got up and walked over to the entrance to the main nest. A few dragons were up and flying around, while the rest were sleeping soundly.

I spotted Heather inside her own cave, with Windsheer sleeping beside her. I glided over, and landed right beside them. I poked Heather with my paw, and she groaned.

"Not now, Hiccup. The sun isn't even up yet." She complained.

"It is, actually. Now come on, we have to start training the vikings." I prodded her again, but she didn't get up.

"Windsheer and I have been up all night guarding them. Why can't you do it?" She groaned.

"Because I need a human to demonstrate a few things." I answered.

"Why can't you be the human?"

She had a point. I sighed. "Fine. But you have to help me in one hour." I said.

"Two?"

"One and a half."

"Deal."

"Meet me buy the western beaches, then we can start the training for real." I said.

"Got it." Heather mumbled.

"And bring six terrors with you." I whispered before she could fall asleep.

I headed over to the cave where we still kept the vikings, and saw them still asleep on the ground. I shook my head and roared. They immediately got up, Fishlegs yelling "Dragon attack!" Then they saw me, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

"We thought you were a rogue dragon that wanted to kill us!" Tuffnut said.

I laughed and turned into human. "You weren't too far off, Tuff." I said.

"Daddy!" I turned around and saw the weirdest thing in my life. Midnight was riding Shadow.(Midnight is a human, just so you know.)

They landed, and all I could do was stare at them.

"Uh…" I stuttered. Midnight got off Shadow, and stayed in her human form. "What were you two doing?" I finally asked.

"I wanted to know what riding a dragon feels like." Midnight said.

"And I wanted to know what having a rider on me feels like." Shadow said.

"Um, Hiccup?" Astrid called.

I turned around to face the vikings, who were looking at Midnight like she was the eight legged horse of Frey. (Or is it Odin?)

"Who's the little girl?" She asked.

I laughed. "That's a good joke, Astrid." I got out. When I finally stopped laughing, I saw that they weren't laughing with me.

"Wait, you seriously don't know who she is?" I asked.

"Nope." Tuffnut said, and shook his head.

"Not a clue." Snotlout said.

"No idea." Fishlegs agreed.

"Although she does look almost identical to you when you were younger. But as a girl." Astrid said.

"That's because this is Midnight, my daughter." I said, and Midnight turned back into a night fury. The vikings just stared at her.

"You mean she never showed you her human form?" I asked, and they shook their heads.

"We didn't even know that she could turn into a human." Fishlegs said.

"Well she can. But she doesn't do it often." I said, and turned to my daughters. "So what are you two doing here?" I asked.

"Mommy wanted to know where you were." Shadow answered.

"Tell her I'll be at the Western beaches training the vikings, and she can come if she wants." I leaned down to whisper in their ears. "It'll be quite the show. They'll be scorched before you can say 'terrible terror.'" I joked, and they laughed before looking at each other.

"Race you!" They both yelled, and took off.

I smirked at them, thinking of how much they resembled me and Toothless. It was like they knew exactly what the other was thinking, and knew what the other was going to say before they said it.

I looked up and whistled. A few seconds later, Stormfly, Hookfang, Meatlug, and Barf and Belch landed in the cave.

"Are we gonna train those dragons?" Fishlegs asked.

I looked at him. "Hahaha. No." I laughed sarcastically. "We'll start with the basics. First, I'll tell you the steps on how to actually train a dragon. Then when Heather joins us, you'll get to train one of your own terrors." I said. "Then once you have fully bonded with your terror, you'll move on and bond with the dragons behind me." I said.

There was a growl behind me, and I turned to see Luna flying towards the cave. I smiled as she landed, and turned into a night fury.

"Perfect timing, my love." We nuzzled and I noticed the hatchlings weren't with her. "Where are the girls?"

"They're with Stoick." She answered. Then she looked at the vikings. "Are you sure you want to do this?" She asked.

I shrugged my wings. "They seem like they really want to know more about dragons." Then I looked back at them. "Although I think I might hold off on Snotlout and the twins, though. I don't know whether to trust them or not." I made sure I didn't accidentally speak in human language, that way they had know idea what I was saying.

She nodded in understanding, and I turned back to the dragons.

"Bring them to the western beaches, then do as you wish." I said. They nodded, and grabbed the vikings.

Astrid

After the dragons had dropped us off at our new cave, I immediately lied down from exhaustion. Hiccup had finally given us permission to explore the nest, and I wanted to explore every inch.

The training had gone surprisingly well, except for the fact that Tuffnut and Ruffnut kept blurting out question about their terrors, such as how fast could they go, how big of an explosion they could make, etc.

The first one to train their terror was me, surprisingly. Then it was Fishlegs, with Tuff and Ruff following. Snotlout still needed to work on his.

After the others had been set down, I looked at them. "Who wants to go and explore the nest with me?" I asked them.

Snotlout raised his hand. "I do. I need to figure out to get out of here." He said, and I looked at him, puzzled.

"What do you mean, Snotlout?" I asked skeptically.

"I mean that I need to find a way to get out of here, so that we can get back to Berk and complete our mission." He said. "Don't tell me you guys actually like those demons."

I wanted to scream at him that we actually did like them, and Hiccup was right about everything. But I decided to play along, find out what his plans were and tell Hiccup once I found out.

"No." I said, and looked at the others with a look that hopefully said, Just play along, I have a plan!

Fishlegs seemed to know where I was getting at, "Uh, yeah. We don't like those dragons. They're terrible." He said.

"Good. So once we know how to ride those dragons, we can leave this place and tell Viggo where Hiccup is." Snotlout said. "I'll be a hero!"

"Yeah." I mumbled. "A hero."

DUH DUH DUHHHHHHH! There you have it, Snotlout is still against Dragons. I can't wait for chapter 23 or 24. You're guys' reactions are going to be so funny. But no sploilers, I would hate to do that. This is bigger than when Midnight and Shadow's apearance was announced. Hope you enjoyed and please review!
