Gale-Breaker's POV:

The first thing I noticed as I stepped out of Astrid's house was the lack of people, she did mention something about a mission overseas but, would they really leave only this amount of people behind, WHAT IF THEY NEVER RETURNED!? I was too busy thinking about that, so I didn't notice that the people that did stay were staring at me from afar, did they really think I would hurt them?

"Come on!" Said Astrid taking my hand and pulling me further from the house.

"Where are we going?"

"Around, I need to show you the Dragon Training ring as well so you know where to go later."

I just nodded in response, she ,let go of my hand quite suddenly and I lost my footing falling straight on my face, I stayed still for a while before rolling onto my back. I stared into the sky and longed to be flying next to my family and my brother once more, it dawned on me I may never be able to go back unless I make a new dragon suit.

"Gale? You OK down there?" I was snapped out of my daydream to see Astrid standing slightly off to the side.

"Yeah, I just, uhh, got a bit lost in the sky." I pushed myself back up and walked over to Astrid stumbling a bit. "Where to next?"

"we haven't been anywhere yet, you just decided to visit the ground!" She said while slightly laughing

"What, that doesn't count?" I said also laughing.

We spent most of the day walking around while we talked and she showed me all the places, when it was getting dark she said we should go to the great hall for dinner.

We walked up the steps to the giant doors, before we even moved the doors an inch I could hear the laughter of some Vikings, when it wasn't a threat to my life it sounded cheery, but to a dragon, hearing this laugh could make them have nightmares for the rest of their lives.

Astrid's POV:

Before I opened the doors I looked over to Gale, she was listening to the laughter of the men inside, she had a face of slight fear and slight humour, this girl keeps getting stranger by the minute, hopefully one day I will fully understand her.

I pushed open the doors and pulled Gale out of her trance so we could go in, as we walked over to the teen's usual table we got strange looks from many of the Vikings sitting at other tables, I glanced over at the usual cheerful Gale to see she had put her head straight down and was looking at her foot, I couldn't see her face but I bet she was looking down because of what I told her many of the other Vikings thought of her as.

She lifted her head up a bit and looked around, her eyes widened as she saw the massive carved columns dotted around near the edges of the building, she looked very fascinated by them. I saw most of the Vikings had gone back to their meals no longer interested in the strange girl they have been hearing about lately.

"Hey, Astrid!" I turned around to see Snotlout, one of my fellow teens walking up to us, Gale also turned her head slightly to see who it was, one thing I noticed though was her pupils had dramatically shrunk in size, it was almost as if she didn't have any.

"Snotlout" I said in acknowledgement

"Is this her then?" He said looking over at Gale who now had turned her whole body towards him, her pupils had gone back to normal size, as had her eyes.

"Yes, Snotlout meet Gale-Breaker." I said

"So then, she doesn't understand a word I'm saying?" He asked, why would he ask something like that?

Gale-Breaker's POV:

I guess Astrid has told everyone that I didn't speak Norse, well I didn't till this morning.

I looked over to Astrid who still hadn't said anything in return, I kept looking back and forth, neither of them said anything, I decided to have a little fun, if he thought I couldn't speak Norse, I could at least surprise him, anything would make this conversation better.

"Well this conversation went south fast!" I exclaimed, both Astrid and the boy, Snotlout, looked at me as if I had just become a dragon.

"She can understand all of it, Snotlout." Astrid explained

"But you said she couldn't"

"And I couldn't, till this morning." I said, I have to admit it's not the most casual thing to drop into a sentence but there is worse.

" Lets go sit down" Said Astrid as she pulled me towards the tables and away from the now confused teen.

We were silent as we ate, I guess we didn't have anything to talk about, either that or she was very focused on her food. Once we were finished we got up and left, simple as that.

"I think it's time for you to see the dragon training ring, I've shown you most of the places on Berk already."

"Is dragon training the only thing done in the ring?"

"Mostly, we keep all of the main dragons there, we use them to train on but most of the time they stay in their cages." She carefully said.

"Cages, fun!" I exclaimed with sarcasm, as we made our way a boy slightly shorter than Astrid came running into me, we both took to the ground with a loud thump, how many time will I visit the floor in one day, ONE DAY!?

"HICCUP! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING" I heard Astrid shout

I looked over to the boy, unlike me he had landed on his back, he was wearing some fur jacket over a green shirt, the thing that stood out the most was his expression.

"You O.K, it looks as if you've seen a ghost!" I said getting up, I reached out with my had in offer to help him up, he took it gladly.

"Huh, oh, yeah sorry, I was just shocked by the fall" He said

"Why were you shocked, you do it all the time" Astrid was talking to him quite bluntly, I haven't seen her act like this before, it's strange.

"No I don't!" He exclaimed in return to her statement

"I'll be the judge of that tomorrow in dragon training."

"You're going too?" I asked him, he didn't exactly look like the type who would go through something like this.

"Yeah, unfortunately" He said

"Come on Gale, I still have to show you the ring and the forge" Astrid turned and left and I followed in pursuit.

On the way to the ring, I started to smell something, it made my vision go all messed up, actually it made my eyes go all dragon-y mode, when this happens, my pupils shrink and I see with sharp precision, sometimes it's good others it's not, like when you're trying to fit in with a bunch of Vikings, with my pupils this dilated I stand out quite a bit, that and that my eyes slightly glow when I'm in the state.

"Welcome to The Dragon Training Ring!" Said as she opened the gates to this giant room, I could tell where the dragons were being kept because there were some doors were being hit from the inside continually. "This is where everything to do with dragon training is held."

"Wow!" as I was looking around the big room, something popped into my head "Wait, don't you have to have your own weapon?"

"Oh yeah, how can I forget that!" She said looking down at the axe that hung at her side "Lets get to the forge, maybe we can get Gobber to make you one."

"Actually, I think I'm O.K, I can make my own."

"Really?"

"Yeah, hey do you know where my, uhhh, my, like, leather bits of clothing are, I have something I could use to make the weapon in them."

"Yeah, the pieces are back at my house!"

"Wait! Pieces!?" I exclaimed, I could feel all of my dragon senses going wild, I could tell all the dragons here were under a great amount of distress, all of this was putting pressure on me, I had to leave and hope tomorrow they might have settled down.

"Yeah, the things your wearing now are some of the only things that weren't damaged!"

"Oh, that suit took me ages to make!"

"Lets go get that material you were talking about, you need that weapon for tomorrow morning!" She said as we ran out of the ring all the way back to her home.

Apparently I was tired while writing this one so that's why it's a bit sloppy at the end, any way I actually did make a small change in this one, I was bored and I had to upload this, so it just happened.
