Hiccup squinted against the wind, his hair whipping back from his face with sharp pricks over his ears. Grinning he bent lower to his mount, pushing against the saddle his reign fisted hands were resting against. "Alright, boy, let's see how high you can go." The nameless crimson Nightmare beneath him glanced over its shoulder with an arched brow. It gurggled in the back of its throat, Hiccup glancing down at it quickly before giving another small smile, patting it on the back of its slender, spiked neck. The creature shook its head before turning and arching its neck upwards, tilting towards the cloud and shooting higher into the clouds.
The brunette whooped as the beast pushed its way into the clouds, raw power pumping its long wings higher and higher. The small boy released the strings of leather with one hand, throwing it into the air with a triumphant proclamation. "You're almost as fast as Toothless!" He grinned again, a wild glint in his eye that only the moisture of clouds could put there. The dragon opened its fanged mouth in reply, belching a bout of flame before roaring alongside the viking.
He had recently been given the job of taming the other dragons in the village like he had Toothless. Of course, none of the over sized lizards could replace his Night Fury. His job was simply to get the animals use to flying with riders, to understand the commands of their riders, and to form bonds with humans so that they could be adopted and taken care of without worry. Every now and then he would invite some of the other teens to join him in the training sessions, but most of the time he kept to himself, spending whole days in the skies with the animals he had come to love so much.
Hiccup quickly bent forward again, putting his cheek almost against the warm embers this beast called scales. "Alright, now down, big guy." The dragon rolled its bloodshot, yellow eye back to its rider, its iris slitting as his words registered. Hiccup almost thought he had a problem, for a moment a pin prick of terror burnt the back of his throat as a shadow of doubt over his control of the untamed creature had wavered. And then, he was falling.
