I walk back to Astrid's hut, and see she's fallen asleep. I take the laptop and put it on the bedside table. Stormfly curls up on the floor and Dipper follows me back out side. I slio the stone into the pocket of my shorts and look up towards the sky and spot everyone practiceing. It certainly looks very chaotic. But all the dragons have saddles now. Which is very impressive.
I jump onto Dipper and he shoots into the sky. I lean foward and he speeds up. With a little mumbled dragonese he spits some ice, notifying everyone of our arrival.
"Hey you" Jessie says as she and Eragon hover next to me.
"Hey you lot. How's it going Hiccup?" I question and he smiles.
"I have to say I'm impressed. Your friends here sure know what they're doing".
"Of course they do. They hang with me" I joke and my mates groan.
"Anyway, are you being good Shadow?" I ask my dragon and she laughs at me.
"What?" I ask and the group just laughs.
"Ugh. I'm outta here" I mumble as they continue. I have no idea where Snotlout or the twins are. Probably a good thing they aren't here.
Myself and Dipper are currently just out flying. I must admit that I do rather enjoy hoing flying without anyone else. It is really rather relaxing.
"you enjoying yourself bud?" Iask the ice dragon and he nods.
But suddenly there is a huge flock of Nadders coming toeards us. Fipper stops suddenl, but I'm not prepared for that amd I get hurled off of his back.
I fall fast, waiting to be swallow by the cold ocean bellow me. But I feel myself stop just before I hit the water and look down and I'm gliding.
I expect to see Dipper beneath me but he's not there.
What's going on? "Dipper?! Where are you?" I yell this all in dragonese and then suddenly relise what's going on.
I'm a dragon. I have been turned into a dragon! What the actual hell?!.
It's ok. I can do this. I focus on my body, on my wings and tail. I can tell what dragon I've been transfointo; a Night Fury.
I turn uo, spotting a sea stach and gently start flying over to it. I spot Dipper who is staring at me in disbelief.
"Ummm" is all Dipper manages to say.
"what's going on?" I say as I walking in a circle, stumbling as I'm not used to this.
"I have no idea" is all Dipper says as he walks around me. I am a dark bluish black colour and my spikes are somehow already split. I can feel something different. This is different.
"how am I supoosed to transform back?" I ask myself and focus on it but nothing happens.
"let's just get off of thos rock". Without another word he takes off and wai5s for me to follow. I take a deep breath and shoot uo into the sky. I can feel the wind against my scales and the feeling is just unimaginable. I shoot past Dipper, who looks at me annoyed. I laugh and fky circles around him
"come on showoff". He leads the way back to the forest on the edge and we land.
I have been trying for about 15 minutes now to try amd change back. It is nit going so well.
"I think it was the stone" Dipper says and I gove him a face that says "no duh".
I concentrate on my human form, the colour of my hair, my face shape. And I can feel an odd sensation. I can feel myself turn back.
I walk over to a small pond and sigh. It didn't work properly. I still have Night Fury wings, ears and a tail wuth a slight scale here and there on my forehead.
I turn to see Dipper who is rollingaround on the groumd laughing.
"Ugh" is all I say and I sigh and lay on the ground. Dipper stops laughing, walkis over to me, and licks me.
"Ew Dipper! That's disgusting" I say as I try to wipeof the dragon slobber.
"Could tjis day get any worse?" To answermy question diiper pushes me into the pobd, soaking my already slobber soaked clothes.
I just sigh and don't bother to get out. Dipoer jumps in next to me, splashes me and resumes to his laughing fit. Annoyed, I slap him on the head with my tail. He just whines a but and goes back to laughing.
TThe sun is starting to set now, they'll be wondering where I am. I still haven't managed to change completelybach. I can niw successfullychange to a Night Fury to half form though. But this is way to embarrassing. I should be able to do this. Oh, and I have also learnt in the past hour at I can turn into other dragons. I have tried Nadder, Razor Whip, Woolly Howl, and Dramillion.
"this is hopeless" I whine, Dipper curling uo around me.
"we can figure this out tomorrow. They know you'll be fine, they know that. We can try tomorrow" he reassures me and I nod, curling my tail around me and folding my wings around my body (Indi is in Night Fury half form just to clarify).
I drift off to sleep, wondering what tomorrow will bring.
