Chapter 1
Later on that same morning, the Viking teen goes in search of the Night Fury to prove that he can be a Viking. At the same time, the Night Fury was struggling to get out of the bola she was trapped in.
~~~HTLANF~~~
'This damn bola won't break!' I thought as I kept struggling to break out of it. 'What in the name of Akatosh is this made out of?!'
I tried for a few more minutes, then just gave up with a groan.
'Oh the Queen is going to be so mad when I get back. Of all the things that defeated me, it just had to be a bola.'
As I laid there with my eyes closed, I listened to the forest around me. It was rather peaceful compared to the Nest. There was no fighting going on around me constantly here. All I could hear was the breeze, sea, and a teenage boy getting hit in the face with a branch.
Wait.
I stiffened up and slowed my breathing down.
'Oh this is it! This must be Akatosh's punishment for being shot down! I'm done for!'
As I was freaking out I could hear the teen talking.
"Oh, wow. I did it. Oh, I did it! This fixes everything! Yes!" I could feel him rest his foot on my face. Most likely in a heroic pose. "I have brought down this mighty beast!"
That upset me a little bit, so I moved my head and the boy got scared as he moved away from the force I pushed at.
"Whoa!"
I looked at him as he pulled out his knife and pointed it at me, shaking out of fear. He was trying to act brave though.
He came close to me still pointing the knife my way.
"I'm going to kill you, dragon. I'm gonna cut out your heart and take it to my father. I'm a Viking. I am a Viking!"
I locked eyes with him and could see that we were both terrified. Me because I was about to get killed by a small Viking teenager, and him because I was the most feared dragon in his entire village. After a few seconds I gave in and lay my head down on the ground with my eyes closed.
What surprised me was when I heard him sigh in defeat.
"I did this."
A few seconds pass and my eyes shoot open and dart to him as he starts to cut the bola.
'What is he thinking?! He does know that once I'm free I'll kill him right?!'
As the ropes got loose I broke out and pinned him against a boulder. Now that the tables were turned I looked directly in his eyes, but what I saw shocked me.
I saw myself.
This human was exactly like me. And yet here I was about to kill him.
'I can't do this.'
So without another thought I just roared in his face and tried to fly away, but as I did I noticed something off.
I was off balance.
The next thing I knew, I crash landed in a decently sized cove.
