Dragon curse
Chapter 2
Hiccup
A night fury, a real Night fury… I'm not useless after all. I step into the Clearing, and scream at the sky, "This fixes everything, I have brought down this mighty…" It kicks me back into the stone I had been behind… Then makes a sound that sounded like laughter! Outraged, I jump forward and cut of its head… Then I draw my hand in the blood and like I had seen the other kids do and paint it on my face and pick up the head… The body moves and claws cut into my back…
I fall into the blood and have a strange feeling… like it was going into me… through the cuts made by the dragon… I get up and turn to go home… But stop… those wings would make some nice clothing. I stop and turn back around and cut of the wings and fins… and unable to stop thinking… that the claws would make a nice color… so I take those also. I turn and run to the city and scream and I run through. "COME AND SEE, WHAT IS LEFT OF THE NIGHTFURY THAT I HAD SHOOT DOWN!"
Everyone throws themselves to the ground even with it being sunny out and not a dragon in sight… I run through with the wings flowing behind me… Soon, yells of shock come from all sides. Dad steps in my way, "What is going on?" He asks. "Dad I have killed the Night Fury that I had shot down in the last dragon attack. Here is the head, wings, and claws. Also a detailed picture of what a night fury looks like." I hand him my book. Then words I had always wanted him to say to me, "Son… I'm… well proud of you…" It is not every day that Stock becomes speechless, "Today my son has become one of us!" Everyone is shocked… "So, son what are you going to do with this?" I smirk, "Cloths, hat and a color." Everyone starts laughing.
By that night I had finished and put no my new set up… and I step out into the night to find Astrid coming to me… Then hits me hard… "That's for being better than me…" I'm about to protest when she kisses me. "That's for being cooler than Snotlout." I laugh and grab her and give her a kiss. At first she tries to get away then calms down and kisses back. "ASTRID?! What about me?" "Shut up snotface. I would not be with you in a million years." She says and slaps him in the face… I step up and hit him in the belly… he is thrown fifty feet into a house, where he rolls over and losses his supper.
Astrid stands there open mouthed… "How did you do that?" Astrid asks. "I don't know." I mutter back as snotlout blacks out on the ground… "I'm going to go home and sleep." I mutter as I make my way home and black out on the bed.
