Long Days Sleepless nights
So here it is another brilliant chapter by me The amazing Luffy! Enjoy I sure did! ^_^
Danny was sleeping rather peacefully in the middle of the arena his wing over his head making it completely dark so he could enjoy the extra sleep, when a large cat like creature started to creep out from the wall slowly making its way over to him with a light flap of his wings he signaled to two others a large horned red beast creeping out quietly and a light turquoise creature slowly inching towards Danny quietly enclosing him in a circle making sure he couldn't escape.
With a few signals all three jumped him at once The black cat like mass shifted his weight on his paws as he signaled the other with a swift and silent leap. Landing onto Danny's back forcing him to wake violently letting out a roar of fear. The flash of the green blue Dragon and Bright red grabbed his wings forcing him to stay down without hurting him as Danny struggled hating the constant bathing the dragons did to keep his body clean. Toothless kept him still while a green Barf and belch started to lick each wing individually. He had been dealing with this for almost a month now his wing finally healing enough for him to get these crazy itchy stitches removed from his wing. He raised his head growling but it didn't help. He huffed deciding to let it happen knowing that they were all just being affectionate and decided it was better than meatlug trying to play with him for a little dragon she played rough. He smiled and shifted again his body now flipping to let them clean the underside thanking god that his friends weren't there to see his judgement falter. He let out a small thrumbing sound scaring him as he realised it was coming from him.
He shot up shaking off quickly his wings spreading slightly as he shook them out turning invisible to get the large amount of saliva off not noticing as Tucker and everyone entered the arena. Danny trotted off to the corner where he knew he would be left alone. His friends saw him and slowly walked over to him.
"Hey Danny!" Smiled Tucker who just got a disgruntled huff upset that they left him. "What's wrong?" He asked getting Danny on a tangent of angered puffs of smokes and whistles that came from his mouth as he tried to speak. He growled his frustrations just as Sam came over. "What's wrong with him?" She asked getting him to facepalm and growl when an idea popped into his head.
He shifted under his weight steadying himself on three large five claws paws as he took a nail and started to draw into the rocky dirt. Sam and Tucker watched him wondering what he was doing but quickly realised he was writing. 'Can you read this?' He sketched in the dirt getting a semi amazed look.
"Ya we can." Sam quickly chimed walking over to his side watching him as he wiped away the marks with the flat of his paw before writing again this time a quick jot.'We need to get out of here!' He growled huffing as he pointed to his chicken scratched letters. He knew he wasn't a good writer hell he knew that his handwriting was bad but he didn't know what else to do. He was so sick of everyone ignoring him or treating him like a pet. His friends even got a saddle made just so they could ride on his back and it made him really upset that they didn't even ask. He didn't mind but he was really hurt about being left out.
Sam looked up at him, "Danny that's why we came down here." She piped up slightly. "Hiccup and everyone said we could go with them to Dragons edge once you can make the flight." She stated watching him closely as he sat down his paw flying to his mouth as he thought his tail thrumming on the ground with a rhythmic thumping before he wrote, 'I need to learn to fly with my wings.' With that his friends gave a nod before leaving.
Danny was watching as the dragon riders all took up their dragons and went to do their drills showing off. Hiccup was the first to start them in a series of commands going through the list Danny was thinking about how he would go through his ghost powers. But he hadn't yet tried them all he knowing that and was scared to find out that their was a problem. He let out a low sigh staring up at the sky his head moving only slightly as his friends were past between each dragon. He gruffed closing his eyes angrily. He decided he would sleep away his anger but when that didn't work he stood and shook off walking out of the arena. He hadn't explored the local village yet and had been meaning to but that noisy and excitable dragon Toothless and his friends. Danny huffed softly now trotting up the hill. When he saw the top of the hill he ran for it his Large paws making loud thumping noises as he came to the ridge. His head scanned the horizon slowly making his way down to the town. He walked by a sheep farm, it was rather large and held a few yaks as well. He saw a large blonde male with a long beard and what to be a large bucket on his head. He seemed to be yelling frantically about something to a large fat red bearded man who Danny assumed was his bunk mate. After a few moments of watching the pair go back and forth Danny decided to move on.
Now getting to the busiest part of the village. He shifted slightly moving heavily to the side as a bald male with a thick mustache pushed a cart load of fish forwards. He shuddered as his instincts kicked up. He was so hungry but with a quick shake of his head he came to his senses deciding to move on. He slinked off again following the stone steps to a large building with a tooth on the front He assumed it was like a dentist or something that had to do with teeth.
But what he wasn't expecting was a large man with a hook and a peg leg to throw out a large bucket of old garbage smacking Danny in the face causing the once curious dragon to growl at him a half eaten fish hung from his muzzle and a chicken bone got lodged up his nose causing the angered Dragon to cough out a fit of weak fire. Gobber looked at him a moment before laughing at the large dragon. "You sure look ridiculous." He chimed getting an angered huff.
"Oh calm down you glomping beast." He growled grabbing Danny's head forcing him down pulling out the bone causing danny to growl than sneeze several times over. Once he was done he pulled the fish off chucking it into his trash pile. He then forced Danny to open his mouth looking at his teeth a slight smile perched on his face as he purred in his rasping voice. "You have nice teeth beast." He laughed his rough hands letting go allowing Danny to once again move. He shook his head growling as he quickly turned and left hating being called a beast. He knew it wasn't intended as an offence but he really hated it he was a person, A human being, Not a beast.
He huffed slowly moving along the ground his long head looking every which way. He had seen a lot of people riding dragons. But one caught his attention a dark green dragon with a cascade of Berry red that inched across his head and wings.
Danny was in awe He was as big as him and seemed to be protecting everyone from the sky. He chased the flying dragon not realising he was the Chiefs dragon. It looked like it was approaching a large building that sat atop a great hill. Danny stopped on top when the large dragon landed with a loud thump. The chief Stoick hopped off his back petting the creature. "God job skullcrusher take a nice rest I have a meeting to get too. He watched closely as the man left into the structure.
Danny slowly walked over to the dragon his head remaining low as a sign of respect.
Skullcrusher gave a gentle huff as he stared at the dragon sounding out his name in a series of strained whistles. Skullcrusher? With his name being said he looked up at Danny. He flexed his wings slightly shaking them out before going back to eating fish from his specially made fish paddock. He shifted slightly moving over to share with the male buck dragon. Danny looked at him a moment his stomach rumbling again this time louder made his mind go fuzzy as his thought process dissipated and only one thing was on his mind. Food!
Danny was quickly devouring whole fish filling his belly as much as he could until Skullcrush forced him out. Danny was panting heavily as he was finally able to catch his breath. He raised his head and gave a shallow lick across Skullcrushers cheek before slowly moving away. He looked at the large building his wings flexing before he folded them in completely. He walked up to the front step not noticing Skullcrushers glances and warnings.
He slowly pushed open the door walking in surprisingly quiet on his massive paws. He had walked in on an important meaning. He heard Stoik the loudest one in the room.
"I KNOW WE ARE LOSING A LOT OF FOOD TO DRAGON HUNTERS!" He shot in his gruff voice that Danny felt was like fire to his ears. He shook his quickly listening to the rest of the conversation. "But Stoick!" A man with a shrill voice even higher than Toothless's echolocation. "They haven't left us room for a counter and the Berserker tribe is helping them!" He stated coldly just before a female spoke up. "What are we going to do not even trader yohan was granted safe passage to our village and was forced to leave without visiting us and we have no gold to use." She stated remembering back to how Hiccup had lost all their gold to the hunters.
Stoick growled, "Have you forgotten that we helped save hundreds of dragon before and since then?!" He heaved slamming a disgruntled fist on the table and went to finish with a plan to stop this but before Danny could hear a large male stepped in front of him forcing him out with several harsh shoves growling, "NO DRAGONS ARE ALLOWED IN THE GREAT HALL WHILE WE ARE MEETING GET!" The man clearly didn't like dragons that much but seemed to tolerate their presence.
Danny growled but before he could do anything he was locked out. With a huff he looked up at the sky and sighed it was already getting late. The moon was in the sky and he realised how tired he was when he yawned. He decided he would go back to the training hall sluggishly moving past skullcrush down the stairs. But after a few long moments he smiled, Why not practice my flying now, No one's going to be awake.
He raised his head and swallowed letting his wings spread stretching the excess skin tight as he slowly started to flap his wings trying to raise up but all he managed to do was strain his muscles when he kicked off.
Skullcrush was watching him closely quickly picking up on what he wanted he took to the sky landing in front of him. He stretched his own wings looking at Danny slowly moving his taut muscles up and down in a rhythm.
Danny stepped back a little slow to realising what skullcrusher was doing. But after a few strokes Danny started to move his wings at first out of time as he worked on each muscle but soon he was flapping in sync with skullcrush.
After a few more flaps Skullcrusher pushed off the ground raising a few feet in the air before touching back down. With a little encouragement Danny was hovering. He looked down and a large grin crossed his face as he excitement overcame him. He quickly shot up into the sky and whipped about in loops tucking his legs under himself. He smiled his tail came up to his face and he spun his whole body moving like a wheel across the sky as he shot back out in a straight line spreading his wings again. He was so happy and felt so free knowing he could now fly like the dragons.
He was flapping against the night sky he dropped down to the water a smile on his face as he reached out out a paw slowly moving the water drawing small ripples out of it.
He was so happy that he didn't notice the arrows coming at him five of them landing deep into his back sending him spiralling into the water. He felt his mind haze over and his thoughts scrambled. He was seething as anger forced its way into his thoughts causing him to thrash until he was so tired he couldn't even stay above water. A net Was shot over him and he was heaved aboard a ship. Danny saw a few shadows before he was out cold sleeping heavily as the night drew on.
That seems like a nice place to stop and YAY Danny can fly now WOOP! WOOP!
