G'Day guys, I'm back with chapter 2! I'll see if I can make this one longer, the last one was 3 pages on word but apparently that's short lol.

Enjoy

Chapter 2: The Race

Vestara's POV:

I watched as two more dragons flew over from the island in front of us and started flying beside Hiccup and Astrid. We flew over the island and landed in a small clearing in the town and were soon surrounded by people and dragons alike. "They seem to be nervous, be careful." said Luke. We dropped the ramp and saw the others were already out of the Twilight. "By the way, what are Jedi?" Astrid asked me. I looked at her, surprised that she didn't know what a Jedi was, but then again, we were in a very strange place. "We sort of keep the peace in the galaxy, but I'm starting to think we are in a different galaxy now..." I replied. Hiccup lead us to what looked like a food hall on the inside and offered us some food that looked like some kind of fish. "What is it?" "It's salmon, delicious."

Astrid's POV:

We all finished our salmon and I couldn't stop thinking about what Vestara had said. "We sort of keep the peace in the galaxy, but I'm starting to think we are in a different galaxy now…" So there is more out there than just a world that we haven't even fully explored? I imagined what it would be like to travel around the galaxy as I followed the 'Jedi' to their ships. "How fast are those things, I bet they can't beat me!" said Snotlout. "Oh I bet they can." Replied Han. "I call a race!" shouted Tuffnut. "Oh, you're on!" Said Ben. I sighed and smiled to myself as I called Stormfly as the others did the same. We all lined up, Ben and Vestara on the Jade Shadow, Hiccup with Toothless, me with Stormfly, Snotlout with Hookfang, Tuffnut and Ruffnut with Barf and Belch, Fishlegs with Meatlug, and Han & Barriss on the Twilight. Luke, Leia, and Jaina were on the ground with Gobber. The horn sounded and we were off, Toothless quickly got in front with me right behind him. Suddenly, the Jade Shadow and the Twilight sped past us and went pretty far ahead, the Shadow started to gain some lead over the Twilight as they went out of sight. Hiccup was also getting away from me since Night Fury's are pretty fast, but I put on the speed and soon, I couldn't see Hiccup, the ships, or my other fellow Vikings as I was so far ahead of them and so far behind the ships and Hiccup. I came around the final turn and saw the ships and Toothless at the finish line. I crossed the line in fourth place and the others finished soon after.

Ben's POV:

I chuckled as I put the power up to max and flashed past the dragons and the Twilight right behind. "Well, looks like the Twilight is our only competition." Said Vestara. "So much for 'I bet they can't beat me!'" We laughed and slowly started to get a bit of space between us and the Twilight. It wasn't long before we had finished the course with Han and Barriss half a second behind us, which, considering how fast we were going, was pretty far behind. About a minute later we saw Toothless come out of the clouds going almost too fast, but managed to land perfectly. "Not bad you guys." Said Hiccup. "Not bad yourself, Toothless was pretty fast there!" "Well, I nearly fell off when you guys almost hit me on the way past." He said, looking at Han and Barriss. "He he, sorry about that." I rolled my eyes and looked back to the sky where Stormfly was just coming out of the clouds. "What took you so long?" asked Hiccup when Astrid was on the ground. "Oh, you know, just you guys going way too fast, I didn't even know Toothless could go that fast!" "Me neither, to be honest." They started to laugh and we saw everybody else coming down. "Snotlout in fifth! Umm… I think sixth went to Tuffnut there, with Ruffnut right behind in seventh. And Fishlegs in last." Said Gobber as they landed. "Hey, Snotlout, didn't you say we wouldn't be able to beat you?" asked Barriss, trying not to laugh her head off. "Hey... I, uh... I let you win." "And you let Astrid and Hiccup beat you as well?" "Crap…" We all burst into laughter.

Luke's POV:

The sun was setting as I walked around Berk, I saw Hiccup and Astrid sitting on the edge of town looking out over the ocean and smiled to myself. I then heard something behind me, and I sensed it was Toothless. I turned around and scratched him behind the ear, he seemed to like that. "Such a beautiful beast." I whispered to myself. He lightly shoved me with his nose. "If only you could understand me…" I froze. "Um… did you just speak?" I asked, confused. "Oh, well this is weird." Replied Toothless. Just then, Astrid came over. "He seems to like you." I jumped, startled. "Uh, hi Astrid, well considering I just found out I can understand him…" She looked shocked. "You can understand what he says?!" Vestara obviously heard her, since she came over and asked what was going on. "Luke just said he can understand was Toothless is saying!" "This is getting awkward…" said Toothless. "Wait, did Toothless just say 'this is getting awkward'?" Toothless, Astrid, and I all looked at Vestara. "Yes, yes he did… I think the force is causing us to understand him." I replied. "The force?" Asked Toothless and Astrid in unison. "Well, the force is what gives a Jedi his/her power. It is an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together." I replied, quoting what Ben Kenobi had told me. "Then why can't I understand Toothless?" "You're just not a force sensitive" Replied Ves. Astrid looked a bit sad but tried to hide it as she asked: "What else can you do with the force?" "Well, we can sense when someone is lying, and we can also sense what emotions other people are feeling, for example, you're feeling sad because you can't use the force." "Oh crap, looks like I won't be able to get myself out of trouble anymore, haha." We all laughed, even Toothless. "We can also do this." I said as I used the force to pick Astrid off of the ground. "OH GOD!" I laughed again as I let her down. "Ok, you guys are not safe." She said, but started to laugh again.

Hiccup's POV:

I heard laughter around the corner and saw Astrid, Toothless, Vestara, and Luke just outside of the blacksmith. "We can also do this." I heard Luke say, and what I saw next froze me in place, I saw Astrid float up into the air for a few seconds. "OH GOD!" She yelled and she floated back down to the ground. She said something and started laughing again but I didn't hear because I was too busy trying to figure out what just happened. Just then, Vestara looked my way and I hid around the corner. "I can sense you, you know." She said. I came back around and I probably looked scared to death. I was. "Hey Hiccup!" said Astrid. I just stood there, frozen. "You will yell at the top of your lungs that Vestara Khai is awesome." Said Vestara, waving her hand at Astrid. "VESTARA KHAI IS AWESOME!" Yelled Astrid, I looked at her, surprised. "Yep, a Jedi mind trick." Said Luke, chuckling. "What's a Jedi mind trick?" asked Astrid. Seriously? She just yelled what Vestara told her to even tough she would never do that, and she doesn't even know that she didn't do it. Vestara turned to me. "Oh no, don't you dare Ves." I said. "You think that Sith are cool." She waved her hand at me. "Sith are pretty cool, don't you think?" "Vestara." "I'm just joking around Master Luke." What are they talking about? I had no Idea what was going on. Astrid saw the confused look on my face and said: "She used a 'Jedi Mind Trick' on you" I realized what had happened and lightly punched Vestara on the arm. "Oww!" "You deserved it." We started laughing again.

That ending was a bit weird, I ran out of stuff and wanted to do something like that so that's why it's there. Took me all morning to wright this so please enjoy it. Not that much longer but I couldn't think of anything after that part so I'll probably make another chapter tomorrow.
