We exit the Great Hall after the Snoggletog feast and meet up in the cove. "So what is the plan?" Hiccup asks, going through all his dragon notes. "Well, it's time to get these guys a dragon" I say, as if the most obvious thing in the world, which it is. Hiccup rolls his eyes. "I mean, which dragon do each of you want" He says, turning to the others. Mia speaks up first. "Well, I'm no dragon expert, definitely not, but I'd love to have a Deadly Nadder" she says as she walks over and gives Stormfly and Arrow a pat. "Well, that was easy. How about you, Jessie?" "Well I've know for ages what dragon I would pick. It may be a bit difficult though". I give her a questioning look. "It's a Typhoomerang". I look at her, knowing that this will certainly be a challange. "We'll see what we can do. What about you two" Astrid says, looking directly at Holly and Claire. "Well, I'm not really sure" Claire answers. "Me neither". "Well, you guys can think about it while we find Jessie and Mia their dragons". Everyone looks at each other, everyone yawning as the stars start to appear. "We can head off tomorrow. Hiccup, Fishlegs, Snoutlout, and Ruff and Tuff can stay here and get everything ready for new dragons. Astrid can come with me. Sound good?" "It's good with me" Hiccup says, mounting Toothless. "See you before you go?" He asks Astrid. She blushes and nods. "Of course". "Ok, see you tomorrow". Everyone then mounts and starts heading home. "Come on, lets go".
Mmmmm. Today sure is going to be interesting. Looks like Astrid is already up. Probably went to meet Hiccup. I'll wake everyone. "Come on you lot, wake up. We need to get moving". Everyone groans as they get up. "Grab your bags and get ready. I'll meet you outside". I walk outside and go fetch Arrow, Shadow and um who else should I take. Astrid suggested that we double up on Shadow, Mia and Holly can ride Stormfly and Jessie and Claire can double up on Arrow. Simple. "Arrow, Shadow, Stormfly, come over so I can saddle you". "The three dragons come walking out, shadow looking very tired. "What's up girl?" I ask walking over to her. She perks up a bit and pushes in in the direction of stables. She pushes me into her stall and I see four dark black and grey eggs. "Oh my god! Shadow this is amazing!" She smiles at me and I see Toothless looking at me from the corner of the stall. "Hey Toothless, I see you're going to be a father". He smile and goes over to lay around the eggs. "I can't take you away from this Shadow. You need to stay here". She looks at me and shakes her head. "You want to come?" She looks at me and nods. "But don't you want to stay here in case they hatch?" She shakes her head and points at the sun and at the eggs. "It will be a cople if days until they hatch?" She nids again and pulls her saddle off of the stand. "If you say so. Will you be ok looking after them Toothless?" He nods and gently heats the floor around them. "Ok, well I guess that's settled. Let me put on your saddles". I put on Shadow's and Stormfly's new saddle and borrow the old one for Arrow. "All done". "Thanks for saddling her Indi". I spin around and see Astrid walking over. "You're welcome. Oh and you NEED to come see this" I say as I grab her and drag her into the stables. "Are those...". "Night Fury eggs? Sure are". "Then why did you saddle Shadow? Shouldn't she stay here?" "She has insisted on coming" and as if to make my point Shadow nods. "That's strange. Normally dragons would never dream of leaving their babies". "Maby that's how Night Furies do things. Maby the fathers look after the eggs. Their are animals in my world that do that". "I guess". "Hey Indi". I hear Holly call behind me. "Hey".
"Those are Night Fury eggs!?" Claire squeals. "Yep, and Toothless is going to be looking after them". "Wow". "Are you all ready to go?" Astrid asks, getting to the point. "Yes". "Ok then Astrid and I have figured out how this is going to work. Astrid is going to ride with me on Shadow, Mia and Holly, you guys are going to double up on Stormfly and Jessie and Claire on Arrow. Mia hop on Stormfly and Holky hop up behind her. Jessie hop op on Arrow and Claire hop up behind her and we're ready to go. I'll just attach the saddle bags and but your bags inside and lets go". We take off.
