Toothless to the Rescue!

Disclaimer: Yes! No...

Ch. 16: Danger

(Toothless POV)

I paced nervously in the cove, looking back at the entrance once and a while. Windchaser lay near me watching with her tail thumping slowly.

"Toothless, Hiccup and Shelen will be back when they're done in the village. From what we saw that night he led us all to the village things must be complicated." Windchaser sighed.

I looked at her in annoyance but then decided to settle down. After all I was up way too late last night. I flopped down and set my head on my paws then fell asleep. I snoozed for a few hours but then my eyes snapped open when I heard a distant scream.

"Hiccup?" I looked around then suddenly jumped up. Windchaser watched me run to the wall that trapped us in the cove. I lept at the cliff, clawing to get out and save my rider. Windchaser jumped up too and rushed over to me. She began to try to hoist me up with her head.

I finally caught hold of a sturdy rock and dug my claws into it. Windchaser looked up at me.

"Stay here!" I ordered, "It won't do if both of us are seen!"

"Be carefull!" She called. I made a final leap and began to run. I felt the blood pounding in my brain and the rush as I ran through the forest. I tried to flap my wings gather lift but it was no use. I snarled and pounded onward. Praying that Hiccup was safe.

(Shelen POV)

Damn that Stoik! I know he's the chief and all but a chief should listen to their subordnates. Expessially their own SON! But he had caused the Nightmare to go on a rampage without the slightest idea how!

"Hiccup!" I cried and used an axe hanging from the wall to pry open the gate seperating me from the other rider. I rushed forward and yelled at the Nightmare. It looked at me with rage filled eyes and I held up my diamond dagger. Seeing it the dragon roared and charged at me.

Stoik rushed in after effortlessly throwing open the other outer gate. Hiccup and I ran for the outer arena and I safely made it to Stoik. Hiccup ran but the Nightmare was quicker. It blocked his path with a blast of flame. I watched awe at the artistic display of flame how it dripped like a lavafall.

Hiccup ran in the other direction and was soon pinned down by the Nightmare. I screamed his name again but suddenly a familiar shriek was heard. I looked up and saw a Night Fury running down through the crowd.

"Oh no." I whispered as an explosion was heard and the arena was filled with smoke and thick clumps of dust. When the dust began to clear I saw Toothless-I knew it was Toothless because of the left tail fin-Clinging to the back of the Nightmare.

He shrieked and roared as they battled. I heard Gobber breathe the name 'Night Fury'. The Nightmare tried to get to Hiccup but Toothless cut the other off. The Nightmare then retreated and I sighed with relief. But we weren't in the clear yet. Toothless was still by Hiccup. He must have thought there was still danger.

"Toothless, run! Get out of here!" Hiccup was pleading and pushing his dragon away. Trying desperately to get the Night Fury to move.

Stoik ran at Toothless and the dragon charged. He pinned the chief to the ground and I held my breath as Hiccup yelled for Toothless to stop.

"Toothless, NO!" Hiccup yelled. Toothless froze and then I saw the gas building in his jaws disapate. He looked at us with sad eyes then Stoik smacked him on the head. The other villagers pinned Toothless down and I held Hiccup back as he screamed at them to let Toothless go.

"Hiccup..." I muttered.

"Put it with the others!" Stoik ordered seriously. I could tell he was furious. I then watched Stoik grab Hiccup and lead him away roughly out of the kill ring. I looked away as Toothless was thrown into a cave prison. There was nothing we could do. Nothing. And I hated it.

Uh, oh. Tooth is captured and Hiccup is powerless! What will happen next? Oh wait, I'm the author I should know. TBC...
