Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON. However I did make this story.
Apologizes if you were excepting a chapter within the past few weeks. I kind of been putting it off and dealing with some schedule changes, but unfortunately it's the way it is. I would like to say thank you to you the audience for reading this and/or previous story so far. Here's the next part in the story.
Everyone was shown off to their rooms by the guards, while Toothless and I went with a guard to see the children. He led us to our bedroom and found it to be clean and quiet inside, then he knocked on the door. The bed moved and soon there were three black figures quickly ran to the door and jumped us. Toothless and I landed on the ground and were being licked to death. Eventually I got them to stop and they sat looking at us excitedly.
"Well, I will leave you guys to tend to you family." The guard said before giving a slightly bow and leaving. We went inside the room and took a look at the kids. They seemed to have gotten a little bigger since we left and nothing looked to be out of place with them. Once they calmed down a "bit," we took them to the courtyard and played to our hearts content. This lasted till it was time for supper to, which we got fish. And instead of coughing up fish that was first eaten by Toothless or I. They could eat the fish with not much of a problem except the fish's size.
After that was over we went to sleep with all of us in the bed together. Kate lay in between Toothless and I, while Njord and Andrew slept on either side of us.
The next morning I woke up to find everyone was still asleep. Instead of going back to sleep I carefully picked up Njord and placed him in my spot while I walked out. Outside, the sun was slowly shining its light in the sky. But had yet to rise into the day sky. I made my way to the study and began reading the collection of books available. As I was reading, one book caught my eye as it talked about old fairy tales. Some of the tales mentioned in them were a little interesting, like a sword that doesn't cut. As I read, sleepiness was still present and I slowly found myself going to sleep. I pondered over the stories and kind of question their realism to the truth.
Later, one of the guards woke me up while he was going about the castle. He left after making sure I was alright. I continued reading the stories and found an interesting tale called Melody's Dragon.
"There was once a girl who was quite terrified of the village boys and girls. Well thought she could talk to the dead since she talked to herself sometimes when she's alone. In reality it was something else than what they thought. But, some of them thought it was weird and pick on her most of the time. She did have some friends, but they didn't help her much as they fear the other children too. Fear of being treated like the odd child if the others saw them with her.
So she went to a wizard in his shop and asked for his help. She didn't want to use magic of them for fear of making the problem worse for her. Instead she wanted to go about it from a different way. The wizard crafted a horn with some magic infused in it.
"Whomever blows into this horn will call upon the great beasts of this world. Be carefully how you use it." The wizard said before handing a curved cone with dragon like craving over to her. The girl was both nervous and excited by the horn she received. She began to guess what the wizard meant by this warning, but was also nervous of what it could be.
After leaving the wizard's shop and going about her day. She could see the children were coming up to her like many times before. Instead of waiting to use the horn, she pulled it our and blew into this. The horn made a little bit of noise compared to normal horns. The children watched her blow and paused for a moment before continuing. Their broke into a circle around her like normal.
Before they could lay a hand on her, a large shadow ran over them. Moments later a dragon landed in front of the circle and gave a loud roar. Then everyone around it ran as fast as they could to get away from it. The girl tried to run, but tripped on something and landed on the ground. The dragon came over to her and looked at her with curiosity. She stood there trying not to move at all, before the dragon picked her up with its mouth. After setting her down, it stood there watching her.
The girl's body wanted to move away, but her curious mind get the better of her. So she slowly approached the dragon before reaching a hand out to touch. The dragon lowered its head to smell her and gave a small imitation growl. The girl jolted from it before moment later trying to touch it. The dragon had rough scales around its body except its underbelly with slightly less tough scales.
"You and I are going to be great friends." She said as she laid her head against its head.
The rest of it goes as she later died and the horn was given to the dragon to with as it pleased. I remembered hearing rumors of any object, but never really hear its legend. Since it got twisted and distorted over time as it was past on from person to person, as well as generation to generation.
After finishing with the book, I began looking over some of the other books and maps in the study. I knew the recent attack had something to do with Drago, but I didn't know what he's up too. Drago is somewhat hard to find and the only person who may know was in a town not far from here by air.
Instead of arguing with Toothless over the matter, I left a note in our room and went to leave. As I was walked through the market, I could hear someone chanting: "The dead walks among us." Part of me said they were right about that and went about my business. I flipped the hood of my cloak over my head as I reached one of the city gates.
Once outside the gates and out of sight, I chanted a teleportation spell to avoid being followed by anyone, which included Toothless. And to shorten the time it'd take to get there.
I teleported a ways from where I needed to be to avoid being seen by people as I suddenly appeared. Where I actually was pretty much empty except the forest life that was all round me.
A short walk led me to the port city of Linterstat, which for the most part equaled if not greater than Dragmire (Toothless's home name). I stayed focus and went straight into the city despite the fact I know little of the city itself. But I knew enough to get me where I needed along with a few other things about this place.
Anyway I'd appreciate if you'd leave a review of the story. Please do share any ideas you have of the story, and/ or your opinion of it. And if you have any questions about the story, I'm more than happy to answer them. Anyway Enjoy!
