Astrid's POV:

As we continued to put distance between us and the main land, no one spoke. I guess we were all too busy concentrating on the invisible path in front of us. Gale was the one at the front leading us, she would sometimes start to lag behind but what's to expect from someone not on a dragon. We had been flying all day with no stops, I would have probably fallen asleep if it wasn't for the fact Toothless let out a loud shrill sound every half hour.

Gale was starting to look out of breath and began basically gliding, if it wasn't from the updraft from the dragons she would probably have just fallen to the sea, I flew from her left side over to Hiccup who was constantly watching as new lands rose and sunk beneath us.

"Hiccup!" I loudly whispered over to him, his head tiredly over at me, maybe he had actually been sleeping, probably not he had to control the tail.

"Wha-?" He slurred, he had been asleep!

"How can you sleep with him screaming all the time!?" I looked over to Gale who seemed to be sleep-flying, is that a thing? "We should do something"

"About what?" I urged the Nadder up just slightly, enough to be able to show Hiccup, sure enough he was shown the sleep-flying girl. I glided down back to his level and gave him a worried glance. He started to look below again, there was nothing much, we had missed most of the islands.

"We can camp on that sea-stack, over there!" He pointed over at a giant pillar of stone that had a few trees growing from its surface.

"You sure?"

"Don't see any other places, do you?" He had a good point.

"OK, what about Gale, she is barely awake, how are we gonna get her over there?" We both stopped talking to think, we had to come up with an idea quick, the sea stack was getting closer every second.

"Why don't you get your Nadder to grab her arms, could work." He offered, I was about to agree but Toothless' ears shot up, he started to race ahead.

"Hiccup?" I watched as Toothless flew out of sight, I was about to race after them but I had second thoughts due to the sleeping girl next to me. A Night-Fury shriek was heard with a faint shouting of 'Stop!' embedded into it. I looked up and saw Toothless and Hiccup gaining speed headed straight for us. My first reaction was to get out of the way, Gale slipped my mind and I evaded the incoming Night-Fury.

Once I was out of the way I turned my head, surely Toothless wasn't going to hurt his own sister, Right!? I watched as he approached at a high speed, when he was only a few meters from her head he let out a long and shrill, the same one that could haunt even the most fearless Vikings dreams.

I closed my eyes, I didn't want to watch this. I waited for a sound but nothing came. I risked a look and opened my eyes, I couldn't see anyone, what happened.

"You had to give him ideas!" Said a voice from above me, I looked up to see Gale hanging upside down from Toothless' back legs.

"What did I do?!" I replied while choking down a laugh.

"Oh, you're not getting away that easily" She crossed her arms, "I was awake ya know, I heard your conversation with Hiccup."

"You did?" I whispered, how was she awake?! She was basically not moving.

"Yes, I did. 'Why don't you get your Nadder to grab her by the arms?'" She mocked Hiccup who shifted in his saddle.

"I don't sound like that!" He called down. We had reached the sea stack and Toothless dropped Gale onto the ground before landing.

"Really? I thought she nailed it." Hiccup looked over to me and gave me a 'Thats not funny' look, I responded by sticking my tongue out, I've never acted like this with anyone before, it's different.

Gale-Breaker's POV:

I groaned on the floor as I pushed myself up from the cold, hard ground that my brother had dropped me onto quite roughly, luckily I had landed on my back and not my head. Astrid had gone over to the trees to collect some twigs, most likely for a fire, Hiccup had started to build up a soft place for sleeping out of some moss and other stuff he could find, they work fast.

'I did warn you ya'know, you could have just dodged out the way." Night warbled to me, as we both watched the two Vikings gather stuff.

'I DID!' I argued, 'How else do you think you caught me by the legs?'

'Leg'

'Shut up, Toothless!'

'Shut up, Legless!' He mocked, I shot him a glare but he kept the smug look on his face.

I stood up and joined Astrid in the crowd of trees, we casually talk about stuff, nothing that important. Once we had a live fire the Nadder and Night bring back a few fish from their fishing trip, we sat and quietly ate around the fire. I watched as the flames from the fire gracefully danced in the wind, they look so harmless but they could easily burn down a whole Viking village.

"Gale?" I heard. I looked up and saw both Hiccup and Astrid looking at me.

"Yeah?" I replied to no one in particular.

"You OK? You've been scratching your arms for a long time, if they're itchy it won't help that your armour's still on." Hiccup said as he nodded his head at my arms, when he mentioned arms I could see Astrid's eyes widen that little bit.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I reply, "You weren't there, were you? When I shouted at the twins on the first day of dragon training."

"You shouted at the twins?" He asked sounding a bit confused, "Why would you just shout at them?"

"They were talking about how they wanted to get scars and I guess I'm a little touchy about that sorta thing." I said as I subconsciously gripped my wrists, where the deepest of my scars were concealed under my long-sleeved tunic (my armour stopped around my elbow).

"Why?" His questions kept coming, this time Astrid elbowed him in the stomach trying to make him stop but he was relentless.

"Uhhhhh..."

"You don't have to answer that question, Gale." Astrid said before Hiccup could ask anything else, "Some people just don't know when to stop asking!" She glared at Hiccup then looked back at me.

"No, No, he deserves to know" I say, "You don't even know the full story!"

"I was around six when it happened, I still had both of my feet. It was another normal night filled with Dragon Trapper attacks, they were very common back then, the dragons were attacking the trappers and the trappers were attacking them, normal stuff. Then these giant dragons with long necks and flaming bodies came and started to crush the caves, one of which me and Night were in." I stopped and thought for a minute, "One of the dragons stopped in front of us, it was massive, covered in armour and the flames danced across its back. Another one caught Night and started to fly off, I ran after him, but the other one grabbed me."

"On the arms?" Hiccup asked, I nodded and continued.

"The claws dug into my skin as the dragon took off, one our dragons attacked and the one holding me set itself alight, burning the areas where it had already dug its claws in." I saw Astrid flinch through the fire, "The dragons claws slipped after another attack but caught me again, this time holding me higher up on my arms, I closed my eyes and when I opened them, I was on Storm-Racers back, he's the Chief and my sort of father type person."

"Wow."

We all sat there in silence once more, until I decided to go to sleep. I didn't want to sleep on the floor so I climbed a tree with practiced ease and layed down on a branch.

"Are you sure about that?" Astrid asked below me, I gave her a thumbs up and closed my eyes, falling asleep.

Only one today and there might not be one tomorrow cause I've got to the point where I have to start writing the full chapters again, I will try and figure out a schedule but that might take me along time to finalize, anyway.
