"For those we love, we must sometimes change our views to help them..." William 0983
Stoick was currently watching over the harbor out to the vast sea. He was wondering where his son and his friends where, he didn't believe it would take this long for them to return from this little expedition he worried that they had Ben captured or worse but he was brought from his thoughts by a familiar voice.
"Ya know, that boy isn't helpless Stoick" said his best friend.
"Gobber, you know I worry about him, he's just a boy after all" replied Stoick.
"Bah! I wouldn't worry about him so long he has that dragon" Sid Gobber.
Stoick was going to reply to that but it died before he could get it out, Gobber had a point that dragon would not willingly allow harm to come to his son.
They sat there in silence for several minutes before it was broken by Gobber "Look Stoick, I know you worry about his safety, but as I've said before your not always going to be around. Someday he's going to get in to a situation that he'll have to find his own way out of and that day may be tomorrow or it may be in twenty years but you must have faith he can come back"
"I suppose you're right Gobber, I cant keep this up forever" Stoick replied.
Gobber snorted "Of course I'm right!"
Stoick turned back towards the harbor and saw a five dots approaching the island "there they are, well have to ask them what took so long when they land" said Stoick watching the five specks get bigger.
10:30 -/- The crater
Hiccup awoke for the fifth time in one day, he was getting annoyed by this. "Is that the only way we can get around in strange places" he said groggily.
Chuckling soon followed "yeah let's let you be awake on the journey, trust me its a lot better then being awake" someone said to hiccup's right. He turned and saw it was Michael. "Although I would say your taking it the best, compared to the others that is"
Hiccup looked around and saw that the other teens and dragons, except Toothless, where still unconscious. But what was strange still was the fact that Michael wasn't speaking Norse but yet he could still understand. "Wait how can I understand you?" Asked Hiccup.
"Hmm that's a good question but it's best not to ask me because I have no idea. You could always ask William when he gets back from what ever he's doing over there" said Michael as he look over to where William was sitting cross legged a few hundred feet away.
"Why can't I ask him now?" Questioned hiccup.
"I don't know, but he said to stay a reasonable distance away from him" replied Michael.
"You two humans are starting to get on my nerves" said a deep voice from behind.
Hiccup turned to see Toothless standing behind him looking at Michael distastefully "Hey, don't blame me he's the one asking the questions" said Michael as he pointed to hiccup.
"No not you two, you and that other odd one over there" said Toothless as he looked at William.
"You know we have names right?" Michael deadpaned.
"I'm fully aware of that fact but I choose not to use them, hatchling" replied Toothless.
"Ok I'm just going to say that this is getting weirder and weirder by the second" said Hiccup. As if prompted by hiccup's words the runes and lines on William's skin began to glow an erie blue color and continued to get brighter and brighter. "When will the weirdness end?" Sighed hiccup.
"Probably till you die" replied Michael with a smirk.
"Well that gives me some comfort" said Hiccup sarcastically while Toothless snorted.
At that moment blue and gold lines began slithering off of William's body taking the shape of twenty four large disks that where slowly filling in and glowing brighter. The brightness got to the point that they all three had to turn away and wait for it to stop.
As soon as the light hit its climax it died down leaving twenty four disks that where thirty feet across and a foot thick, they where covered in hundreds of smaller four inch circles. The metal that the disks where mad from was a deep space grey. Hiccup decided he anted answers, "what the hell are those?!" He all but screamed.
"Whoa, calm down, I know you that this is strange but I need some sort of GPS in order to map the world and find out where I am, without entering orbit" said William. " they are some satellite relays that help me determine my position that's what the larger ones do the smaller ones relay live video feed from across the world" all the teens had awoken from the brightness of the light and they where all looking at him; confused.
"Ok, I may be very knowledgeable, but half the words you said do not mean anything in my vocabulary" said Fishlegs shyly.
"Well, I don't expect you to understand what I was saying, most of the words I used won't be listed for a few hundred years" said William.
But Hiccup did understand those words, he knew their meaning and what William was talking about, and what he intended to do with them. He wondered if the understand of the words had to do with the strange feeling he had when they bonded, he could easily tell from the way William looked afterwards he felt the same strange feeling, but for now he had other pressing issues.
"Hey William, how is it we can all understand each other?" Asked Hiccup.
"I don't old you; I gave you the understanding of the languages, you are able to speak and understand the human languages while being able to just understand dragon language. Don't question me further, please, I don't really understand it seeing as just go the power" replied William.
"Wait, so your telling use you tested an unknown power on us?!" Shouted Astrid.
"Well, no. Not really, I already know how to use the power and what it would do all I did was activate it" replied William in a calm, collected tone. He then raised his hands and all twenty four disks rose up before thousands of small disks came out of the larger disks. And then, without warning, all the disks scattered in every direction disappearing in seconds, "Ok now that that's out of the way now all that left is for you to return to your village and make a decision, when that decision is made, we will come to you, or move on" and with that William and Michael turned and walked off towards the sea to refill on hydrogen. Once they where a distance away they heard flapping and turned to see the dragons flying off.
"Well, there they go" said Michael.
"Yeah, I wonder what path they will choose" William thought out loud. "I can't help but fell... a strong connection to hiccup and his dragon, it's as though I've known them my whole life but not known them at all, and not even getting started on that strange felling..." William drifted of; words failing to exit his mouth a he thought of that weird felling he had felt before.
'Sir there has been a new species found in your genetic code for the you-know-what' said Avai 'ok what is it called?' Asked William 'The Death's Shadow'
11:29 am -/- On the way back to Berk
Hiccup couldn't help but feel an unease about the whole situation between him and William. They had felt like they had known each other but it was all just more confusing to his mind. The world was going mad, strange teens showing up and say he has magic powers. The other teens must he felt his unease and decided to ask him about it. "Hiccup, are you ok? You seem shaken about something" stated Astrid.
"It's just, how am I supposed to explain this to my dad? He'll flip when he finds out I have powers of some sort and that I can talk to Toothless, or any dragon for that matter he'll think I've gone mad and not to mention the strange feeling i got whilst bonding with him. I just don't know what to do" said Hiccup.
"Well be there to help you, just let us" said Astrid.
"Ok, I just home it doesn't come back to haunt us..." Said Hiccup as berk came into view.
I know, not that long but hey, hopefully next chapter will be longer.
