Hiccup tracked Toothless to a hidden cove. Toothless tried to climb out the side, only to slip back down. His roar of anger and frustration startled Hiccup, making him drop the pencil he was using to draw a portrait of Toothless. Good thing it was already finished. Toothless looked up with surprize, and did not see anything. He could have sworn he heard Hiccup.
He shook his head, and looked away. Hiccup peeked around the rock he hid behind, and sighed. "Why don't you just fly away?" he whispered. He looked at his sketch, and saw it did not exactly look like the top view of the Night Fury. He smudged off the left tail fin with his sleeve. Then he remembered dragon training. "Oh, Crap!" he yelped, rushing off. That night, Gobber was talking about how everyone could make their training better. Then he said, "A down dragon, is a dead dragon."
Hiccup gave a yawn, and left in the pretense of going home. As he left, he smiled. Gobber did not know it, but he gave Hiccup an idea for a new project. Project STNF, Save The Night Fury. He worked all night, drawing different tail fin designs he could use to fix the dragon's tail. It did not take long to find a design he liked. He nodded, then ACTUALLY did yawn. The next part of his project will have to wait for the morning.
Hiccup moved quietly through the cove, holding a shield in front of him, and a fish at his side. He did not see the black dragon sitting on the largest rock. THat is until Toothless let out a growl of "Put the shield down." Startled, Hiccup looked into his face, and did what he was told. The dragon sat on its hunches. "Hello, Hiccup" it purred. Hiccup gulped. "I, I bought this for you." He held out his peace-offering. Toothless came to him, and opened his mouth, showing his teeth were sethed. Hiccup did not get it. "Toothless? I could have sworn you had," Toothless retracted his teeth, and snatched the fish. "Teeth." Hiccup finished.
Toothless backed hm into a rock. "I don't have any more." He said. Toothless chuckled, and put half of the fish back into Hiccup's lap. If this didn't make him remember, nothing will. "Go on, try it" he said, licking his lip. Timidly, Hiccup took a bite of the raw fish, it slid down his thought. Toothless gave a small smile as Hiccup's eyes widened. They were two years old, Hiccup was playing in the yard when a little black Night Fury flew to him. He put half a fish at little Hiccup's feet. 'Go on, try it' the young Toothless said. Hiccup did so, it was under done, but still good.
Then, a hawk sounded over head. Toothless hissed and stood in front of his brother, holding his wings out as if to protect him. Vira, their mother, laughed and scooped her two-year old sons off the ground. 'It is alright, Toothless. That bird won't hurt him.' Hiccup stared at the now teenaged dragon in front of him. "Toothless? Brother, is that you?"
"Yes." Hiccup beamed. If it was possible, Toothless's grin matched his exactly.
