When we did return to the cove it was near sun down. I was still sleep and had kept the dragon nip on me for tomorrow. "I better get home toothless, Ashter has been...kind of noticing when I come here. He almost caught me with your saddle and the harness" I said to him petting the top of his head. he had calmed down from the his dragon high but he seemed to growl a bit when i mentioned the other male. "Calm down he's not going to hurt me. I promise you toothless" I said kneeling beside him. He made a purr grumbling sound and nuzzled me making me giggle. "thanks toothless, Today was amazing." I said making him purr. I kissed his muzzle softly before I stood removing the saddle. "you going to be ok, do you want me to catch you some fish." I asked him knowing he was smart and understood me.
Toothless grumbled and nudged me to get moving. He would be fine. "Alright but i promise to catch you some tomorrow." I said to him as i started to leave. I Heard his dragony laugh and smiled and continued home. I was going to make some plans for the saddle there had to be a better way to do things. Though i was mostly going to upgrade the harness so i might had to change the saddle to. Sighing i knew i was in for a long night. Hiding both saddle and harness not far from the village but still plenty hidden I made my way to the great hall.
As soon as I entered I got my dinner and sat down at my usual table. I started to eat mostly expected to be alone like most meals, but soon Fishlegs sat across from me. Looking up from my food a bit surprised. "Um hey Hiccup" he said with an awkward smile. I was still shocked "Um hey Fishlegs." I said looking around seeing if i was about to be pranked.
He noticed this "Don't worry there not going to jump out and embaress you" he said to me. I relaxed slightly but still curious as to why he was here. "Okay..then what brings you here?" I asked him sipping my drink. Fishlegs shrugged looking at his plate "We're friends right? " He asked me which surprised me a lot. Thinking about It we had be come friends over the time of dragon training. "yes Fishlegs we're friends" I said smiling at him. I would have to tell this Toothless tomorrow! I'm starting to make friends! For once eating in the great hall wasn't so bad. I was actually having a great time.
From the other side of the hall I sat with my friends till I heard Tuffnut laugh at something. "Well i found Fishlegs and it looks like he's eating with hiccup" He said catching my attention. Looking over I saw the two together and they were...laughing? "oh he's so in for it doesn't he know that she's-" "quiet" I said to him with a sharp look. That silenced him immediately as I watched the two. Hiccup looked happy to be talking to him and it irritated me greatly wanting to know how he got her to smile. I would soon find out.
I barely finished my food before I left the great hall and waited for Fishlegs to come out so I could have a talk with he came out I saw him and hiccup part ways. when hiccup was far enough away I went after Fishlegs calling out to him when I saw him. I saw him as he froze and I got closer. "We didn't see you at dinner where were you"I asked him as he looked at me I could see fear in his eyes. "I..I was with Hiccup. I know she's your-" A quick glare silenced him from finishing that sentience Only my group knew what Hiccup was to me besides her father and mine. I planed to keep it that way till it was time.
"Why we're you with Hiccup." I asked him keeping annoyance out of my tone. "w-well she really looks so sad eating there by herself so I though maybe...I could join her we've talked a few other times. She's not that bad of a person" Fishlegs said as I watched him shuffle his feet nervously. I knew Hiccup wasn't a bad person, she just never is where she is suppose to be. "What did you two talk about" I asked him he seem to become more nervous. "Well..we talk about...how...annoying Snotlout and the twins can be" he said in almost a quiet voice.
I had to agree with him on that Snotlout could be very annoying. "Go on" I said Crossing my arms across my chest. "w-we also talked about dragon training. I...asked about the she trick she used with the Zippleback." Fishlegs said catching my attention. "And what did she say."I asked him. he looked at me now still nervous. "W-well she said she used an eel that, she was curious to if it had an affect on dragons. so...she brought one into training and well you know the rest." He said to me. An eel? that was all she did? As smart as she was there was no way she figured that out on her own. So who is helping her. "I see, I'm heading home then. I'll see you at dragon training in the morning." I said to him starting to walk off. I would need to watch hiccup more closely now ,and not just to make sure she doesn't blow something up or get herself killed.
The next morning as i walked up to the arena i was worn out and tired. I had spent most of the night remaking both the saddle and the harness to work better. Hopefully it would work better. Entering inside I saw the rest already waiting and went to stand by Fishlegs. He said a good morning which i made a small grunt back as a hello. I was way tired and I still had to see toothless today to test out the saddle. seeing as everyone was here Gobber started today's lesson. he was testing our reaction with the Gronkle again. Unlike the others I didn't grab a shield and stood by one of the obstacles i could hide behind if needed. as the others started to fight it i watched as it knocked each one of them away. Ashter though lasted longer. searching my vest I found the tuff of dragon nip. pulling it out i looked up just in time to see Fishlegs get knocked away making me wince a bit. Spotting me the dragon started to make a beeline in my direction to hurt me. taking a breath I clothes my eyes turning my head away i held out my hand with the dragon nip. hearing a thunk and sniffing sounds I looked to see the dragon sniffing the dragon nip calming down. Smiling to myself I started to rubbing the dragon nip on its nose as if petting him.
hearing sounds from above I noticed a lot of people that had remained in the village had come to watch. looking at the Gronkle I manged to get the dragon back up and started to lead him to his pen. once it it was inside i tossed it the dragon nip and it relaxed as the doors closed and it locked. turning around i saw peoples amazed satires at me. I started to feel nervous at all the looks. "well that will be it for training today." Gobber said as i started to leave the arena as I walked across the bridge I heard someone shout my name. Turning around to see Ashter and his gang. I was going to make a run for it but they didn't look like they were going to pick on me. For once they looks happy to see me. "where did you learn to do that!" Tuffnut said only to be shoved forward by his sister Ruffnut. "that was amazing!" she had said and Snotlout nodded smiling for once at me. "where did you learn to do that?" he asked as I started to back away not liking the crowded feeling. "oh well um you see, I left my ax back at the ring. so you guys go ahead." I said nearly running into Ashter before moving to run. "I'll see you guys later!" I said running back across the bride I could feel Ashters glare and quickly hid around the corner seeing as that area was hidden.
when I was sure they were gone i made my way to where I had hidden the saddle and harness. running i ran all the way to the cove with it only stopping when I reached the entrance panting running out of breath I entered the cove. looking around i saw toothless trying to scratch this one area on his back. "need help there boy?" I asked him walking over. putting the stuff down I walked over to him and started to scratch his back. liking this he started to purr and move so I could scratch his back more. smiling i did so really scratching him. when I reached under and scratched his chin he made this loud purr and fell to the ground purring contentedly. smiling I sat down beside him and leaned on him. "you know today was pretty...weird" I said to him as he curled around me making a smile appear on my face. "I actually survived dragon training without A. getting shot at and B. without hurting the dragon" I said smiling a bit as he gave me a curious look. I had told him a bit of how I was forced to do it. Also how i nearly get blown up each time. he nudged me asking me to continue. "I mean you know I don't want to hurt you guys, I just...cant. So in dragon training i took some of the grass that made you act like you did." I said meaning his cuddly self that didn't seem to want to let me go. he turned his head away a bit. I guess he got embarrassed about it. "I used it to calm the Gronkle down and put him back in the pen." I said then sighed curling up. I felt toothless move to see his face beside mine and nuzzling me. I chuckled at this. Guess he was happy I wasn't hurt or his fellow dragon. when I finished my store he purred softly as if to comfort me. I smiled resting on him. This dragon my Toothless was my best friend ever. I would be crushed if he ever left. "what do you say to taking a good nap then testing out the saddle?" I asked him already feeling sleepy I was up late again working on perfecting the saddle and harness. I heard him grumble and wrap his wing around me to keep me warm and safe. snuggling close to him I smiled. "thanks toothless." I said as he purred and soon I was asleep to the soothing sound and the feeling of soft rosy scales.
Watching my human sleep I smiled the best i could as a dragon. she was perfect completely perfect. I've heard stories of how people treat her and i cant see how they could be. Shes not like them she doesn't want to kill us. She uses different ways in her training to in a way keep peace, and I understand her deeply. I am the last of the Night furies, different then all the dragons. Alone and an outcast. She is brilliant, open minded and beautiful. Yet they shun her and maker her feel alone. like me an outcast. looking at the sky I knew the dragons were listening to...IT. Our leader Our queen. I had to control myself to keep myself from growling at the thought and waking her up. looking at her sleeping form I felt my heart beat faster as I did. Her amber hair falling in her face just slightly and I wished I could move it to see her face. That face that smiled at me every time she saw me since she let me go. Since I trusted her.
She changed me, trusted me as i trusted her. I swear I will protect her. though at time I wonder why i feel strongly for her. Is it just because she gave me my wings back? No Its more and I know it I should never feel this way. I should feel this way for my kind, for a female DRAGON! Not for her...not for this human...this beautiful brilliant human. 'Oh my hiccup what have you done to me you silly human. you're making me love you. So much have I already loved you for. but its growing my little human, and I don't know what i can do about it.' I thought and nuzzled her slightly taking in her scent. she smelt the forest more clean the most her kind. She also smelt of lavender most be what she uses. 'Why do I love you, I barely know you still and I would lay my life down for you.' I thought as i closed my eyes my last thought before I began to dream was for my hiccup, and how much I was falling in love with this human girl who saved my life.
