Chapter: 2

A/N: Hey everyone, I'm back with the next chapter of my story, just to let you all know, in my mind monstrous nightmares live close to volcanos or on ledges inside them, well that's all I wanted to say and I guess I'll see you all in the next authors note.

A boy with short chocolate brown hair, tan skin, and freckles was at the beach catching fish in a net he made himself," mother will be proud of how much I caught today," the boy said in a strange language only know to him and dragons.

A pair of leathery wings unfolded from his back as he flew into the sky with his catch weighing him down slightly; the boy waved to the other dragons from his flock and flew into a active volcano where multiple nests had been built on ledges. Thanks to the boys scales, the heat never bothered him as he flew to a nest close to the middle and laid his catch down.

" Welcome back, my son."

A female Monstrous Nightmare raised her head when she saw that her son had returned, the boy wrapped his arms around the dragons neck, loving the warmth that radiated off her," I brought a big catch today mother," the green eyed boy untied his net and showed her the fish," this is wonderful, you made sure to stay near the normal spot right?" She stated," of course mother, I would never stray from the fishing area."

The boy laughed when she nuzzled against him before taking some fish and eating it in one gulp," that's good, I don't want you to get hurt," the boy nodded and picked up a fish and tore into it with his fangs.

" Hey Hiccup."

The boy turned and saw two Nightmares about his age land in the nest," hey you guys," Hiccup said as he finished his fish," are you ready for the hunt tonight?" A male Nightmare asked," I don't know, mother, can I go this time?" Hiccup asked looking to his mother; she thought for a moment knowing how dangerous it can be," fine, but stay near the flock," Hiccup grinned and nodded as he the other young dragons flew off to go practice.

It wasn't very long before the sun had set and the moon had fully risen; the glow of the lava in the volcanos lit up the night as the Monstrous Nightmares let out a roar and flew off.

Hiccup watched in amazement when he saw the entire flock begin to make their way toward the island of the humans; ever since he was a child he always wanted to go see what a human looked like and today he got to.

The brown haired boy flew beside his mother as another flock of dragons flew beside them and type of dragon he's never seen before. They were green with spines going down their necks, they had two heads with snake like tongues," those are called Zipplebacks," Hiccup nodded as he watched the two headed dragons fly pass them.

His mother continued to tell him the name of all the dragons they encountered until they could see the dim light of fire coming from a small island.

Hiccup followed his mother and the other Monstrous Nightmares as they flew into the village and searched for food and burned houses; Hiccup looked to his mother who was going through some of the baskets for fish or any other edible item, and he snuck off where he saw pins with sleeping sheep.

He had only tried sheep once and it was delicious, he snuck into the pin without being heard and grabbed three of the fluffy animals before hearing a female voice shout," Monstrous Nightmare!"

Hiccup ran back to his flock who were just about to leave with their hunt when he felt something wrap around his wings causing him to plummet to the ground and release the sheep.

" Mother!" Hiccup cried as he tried to remove the metal chains from around his wings; his mother tried to fly back to him but was stopped by fireballs and arrows being aimed at her, she had no choice but to escape with the rest, but not before giving Hiccup a mournful glance.

The boy let out cries for his mother to come and save him but she never came; he was sad but also afraid when he saw the dim light of fire get closer to him, he looked up and saw that the humans were kids about his age and were looking at him with a confused expression.

" What type of dragon is it?"

" I don't know, why are you asking me?"

" It looks a little like a human mixed with a Monstrous Nightmare."

" You're right, it does,"

Hiccup was glad he was taught how to understand and speak multiple languages," I am a Monstrous Nightmare," Hiccup said in a soft voice; all the teens were shocked when they heard him speak," y-you can understand us?" One of the males asked," yes, can you untie my wings so mother won't be worried?" Hiccup asked; one of the girls nodded and undid the chain from around him.

Hiccup stood and quickly flew off, but once he got to a certain height he felt a sharp pain in his wings and he fell to the ground, he looked at his wings and saw that the chains had cut them up. Hiccup saw the four teens come over to him and checked to see if he was okay.

" Your wings are severely injured, they may need to heal for a few days."

" What!? No, I have to get home now!" Hiccup shouted as he caught fire, making the four back away; Hiccup saw their fear and extinguished his flames," I'm sorry, I can't control my flames," Hiccup explained," well we need to keep you calm if you want to stay with one of us."

" You'll let me stay with you even if I'm a dragon," Hiccup stated," even though your a dragon, you act human and that's good enough," one of the girls said," thank you, um...may I ask what your names are?"

" I'm Astrid."

" I'm Snotlout, superior than all these guys."

" Uh...I-I'm Fishlegs."

" I'm Ruffnut and this idiot is Tuffnut," a blonde haired girl like Astrid said," I'm not the idiot, you are," Tuffnut shoved his sister," no you are," the twins went back and forth with the insults and Hiccup tried to ignore them," so, what's your name dragon boy?" Astrid asked with her hands on her hips.

" My name is Hiccup."
