"Done. Finally." Elida poured a cup full of the potion into a bowl." Who want to try it first?" She held out the bowl. Clover, Astrid, and Hiccup all stepped back. They weren't really sure what would happen if it didn't work. "No body?" Elida sighed. "Maybe one of the other night furies will want to?" She pointed out. Hiccup looked up. He knew exactly who to ask. He gave Astrild to Astrid. "I think I know who might be able to help."
He led Elida to a stall by the entrance. "Ash!" Hiccup peeked his head over the wall. The blue night fury was curled up in a ball. "Ash? Uh, do you want to be human again." The dragon jumped up and ran at the gate. "What?! Are you serious?! You better not be kidding me boy." Ash growled. Hiccup leaned back. "I'm not. Did you not hear all that fighting?" Ash narrowed his eyes at Hiccup. "Yes. But I didn't think you'd actually care to help anyone else." Hiccup swallowed. "Well I do. This is El- my wife's mother. She helped to make a potion that will change everyone into a human again. But we don't know if it will work. So we need someone to volunteer despite the risks." Ash nodded.
"Anything's better than this Hel of a life. Give it here." Elida gave Ash the potion." Ugh." Ash complained. It looked disgustingly sliming. But he shook it off and gulped it down. He sat back on his hind legs. His eyes were going crazy. One was slit and the other dilated and it kept changing. When it finally stopped that's when he began to shrink. He wrapped his tail around his waist and it grew into shorts. His scales shrank back into pores and his wings folded into a vest. Ash opened his eyes and looked down. He began to cheer happily.
Hiccup cocked his head. "It must have taken who ever wrote that book a long time to perfect that potion. Seriously. To make the wings into a vest and tail into shorts. Impressive." Hiccup was amazed by it. He was glad that it worked. "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." Ash reached over the gate and hugged Hiccup."Uh, your welcome." Elida complained. They opened the door and let Ash out. "What are you going to do now?" Hiccup smiled at Ash. "I don't know! But something. Well I should get going. Oh my gods. I can leave now." Hiccup stepped back a few feet. Ash skipped out the door. "Is he going to be okay?" Hiccup chuckled. Elida shrugged. "Come on."
Hiccup was next. It was actually painless. Which was surprising how much becoming a dragon hurt. Hiccup shook his head. He was human again! He couldn't really stand up because he was missing his prosthetic. Elida pulled him up. "You might want some actual clothes." She giggled. Hiccup saw that he was only wearing a vest and shorts. Toothless bowed and laughed. Hiccup smiled. As fun as being a night fury was, he still felt better as a human. He jumped on Toothlesses back." You don't happen to know where my flight suit is? Or what's left of it." Hiccup picked up the shoulder pads that were part of his saddle. The he pulled the saddle off. "This will have to do." Hiccup replaced the shoulder pads. "Astrid?" Hiccup looked at his wife.
She gulped and took a sip of the potion. She kind of zoned out for a second. Her eyesight refocused. It had worked. Astrid was also wearing a vest. With nothing under it."Oh gods." She covered herself with her arms. "Oh I have something." Alf ran over to Flamesplitter and got his satchel. He pulled out Hiccup's old blue vest." Here you go sweetie." Astrid snatched it from her fathers hands and put it on over the vest which she pulled out through her sleeve. Hiccup and Astrid were so distracted by being human again finally that they forgot about Astrild." Will the potion work on her too?" Astrid picked her up worried. What if it didn't. They couldn't have a dragon for a daughter. Elida sighed. "Hopefully." Elida poured a spoon full into Astrild's mouth. She licked the roof of her mouth disgusted. Thankfully it worked for her too.
But now it was Clovers turn." Here you go." Elida set the bowl in front of Clover. She sniffed it and looked over at Toothless. He forced a grin." Can I just stay a dragon?" Clover whimpered. She was practically fighting back tears. Toothless nudged here."I thought you wanted to be a human again." Clover backed away." I do. But I've been a dragon so long. I might not make a very good human. And then there is the fact about where I'll go. I can't go home. And the second I'm human again, they'll know who I am." Clover pointed to Hiccup and Astrid. They narrowed their eyes in confusion." Br- Clover. You're a human. Nothing is going to change that. It's wrong for you to stay a dragon. It's not who you are and nothing should force you to pretend." Toothless told her. Clover sighed."Okay. But one thing really quick." Toothlesses eyes widened and she kissed him. She pulled back. Toothless gave her some room. She lapped up the potion.
Most of them are human again but now Clover's identity is going to be revealed for real. And yeah Astrild is human like her parents. But I only left her character a little blank was so I have some room for a possible sequel. It's still only a possibility. I'm still thinking about it. Also about the vest and shorts thing. I know it doesn't make sense. I did that because I couldn't write a scene where they become humans again and they're naked. It was to embarrassing. Thank you for reading and please review.
