How To Train Your Dragon: A Soul Within The Dragon

Chapter 8

Hiccup, Gobber, Stoick, Toothless, Stormfly, and Hookfang walked into the room, as everybody was around the room, eating some soup. Once they walked to Valka, she handed Stoick and Gobber a bowl, as they sat down at the table, where the map was still set out.

Valka handed Hiccup a full bowl, as he went and sat opposite Stoick, as Valka sat beside Hiccup, Toothless sitting behind Hiccup's chair.

"Hey Son, what's this?" Stoick asked, looking down at the map. It had a few circles on it, in red pen. Hiccup moved his amr to point at it, but pulled it back in pain, everybody looking at him strangly, as he had hissed in pain a bit.

"Hiccup, are you okay? Do I need to check you over for injures?" Valka said worriedly, Hiccup shaking his head.

"I-I'm fi-fine Mum... no need to worry." Hiccup said, as Toothless roared and growled at him, Hiccup rolling his eyes.

"Quite down bud!" Hiccup whisper shouted, as Valka looked at Toothless then Hiccup, as she stood up.

"Toothless, what's up with Hiccup bud? Did he injure himself? Or from an old injury." Valka said in norse, as Hiccup banged his head onto the table.

"Don't you say anything." Hiccup barly muttered above a whisper.

"None." Was only Toothless reply, before Hiccupp stood up, but scrunched over a bit in pain, as he shook hiis head frantically at Valka.

"Toothless!" Hiccup roared, as he groaned, Valka standing up and grabbing Hiccup's arm, and sat him down, kneeling infront of him.

"Hiccup. This must be serious, for Toothless to act like that! And, you know it. Look." Valka started, before sighing and starting to speak in Dragonise, since she and Hiccup is the only ones who know how to speak it.

"You can tell me in draghonise. The only people who know dragonise is, me, Heather, Daggur, Eric, anybody who was here before!" Valka said in dragonise, as Hiccup sighed and put his head in his hands, trying to prevent a groan in pain, although it didn't work, as he gripped his ribs, neart his wings, as he tried his best moving them to stop the pain but it just wouldn't work.

"She's right you know Hicc. It's only us here, the only people who know's how to do dragonise. It's just us." Heather said, as she moved to beside Hiccup.

"I'm fine. alright!? I just ne-need to get outta here." Hiccup mumbled, where only Heather and Valka can hear, in dragonise, as Valka gave him an odd look, "please."

"Alright. I'll talk to you later, get to your hut, it's obvious you need to be in a comfort place." Valka whispered in dragonise, as Hiccup looked over to Heather, with pleading eyes.

"Can you go..? If you wanna know so much. please. You're like a sister to me." Hiccup muttered the last bit, but his mother and sister figure heard every word.

"Of course..." Heather whispered, as Hiccup stood up with a smile, limping over to Toothless, before hopping on. Heather whisterled, as Windshear, her dragon walked over, she hopped onto her dragon, as Hiccup secured himself in Toothless saddle, Valka standing up, as everybody in the room giving them weird looks, excpet the people who could understand dragonise.

"I'll talk to you later." Valka mutter in dragonise, before kissing her son's forhead, as Hiccup smiled a bit, but it seemed pained. As Toothless slowly floated upwards, Heather taking the lead, opening the hatch, they flew through and went towards the huts.

Once, they flew inside of Hiccup's hut, they hopped off of there dreagon's, Hiccup closing his door and locking it, as he pulled down the curtains and groaned in pain once more.

"Hiccup, what is wrong?" Heather asked, upon seeing Hiccup's dis-comfort for some reason.

"I--i--AUGH!" Hiccup groaned in pain, as Toothless roared in worry and stood up, Hiccup taking of his armour, including his helmit, as he spread his wings out, but rested them by his side, as he wrapped one around him and checked it.

"Been a while since I've seen those bad boys." Heather said, betending she didn't even notice his scars, cuts, or even burns littering his body as she knows he is un-confrontable about the subject of them, as he is grateful for that.

"Mhm...." Hiccup muttered, before hissing in pain, his wings spreading apart, as he leaned against the wall.

"Hiccup, what's wrong?" Heather asked quickly, standing up and running over to him, kneeling down beside him.

"My-my wings... they have be-been hurting. A lot. Too-toothless. He-he explained th-that the-they grow... bu-but the pain is worse, si-since I'm h-half hum-human!?" Hiccup tried to get out, although it wasn't very clear, Heather understood even word.

"So, your whole body is in pain?" Heather asked, Toothless cooing.

"Don't worry bud... I-i'll be fine, I've delt with worse!" Hiccup reasurred his dragon, who lied down beside him, resting his head in his lap.

"Do you need any medication?" Heather asked, Hiccup shaking his head.

"I have some somewhere, but it's in the chilling area. I can go get it myself tommorow! Bu-but I will have to deal with the pain. It won't make a diffrence! I am stuck like this. I will ack for the next week or so." Hiccup explained, before using the last of his strengh to stand up, as Heather helped him over to his bed, as then there was knock on his hut door.

Heather shushed Hiccup and looked out of the window, then closed the blind, and opened the door, letting Valka in, then shut and locked trhe door again. Valka walked over to the bed with a smiled and sat ont he end of it, resting her hand onto her son's leg, slowly rubbing it.

"What happened Sweatie?" Valka asked, Hiccup sighed and looked at Heather for help.

"He was, his wings are growing. He has been acknig now for a little, his wings hurting. It happened Toothless before, but the pain's alot worse for him, since he is half human. pain is 10x worse!" Heather tried her best summoning it up.

Hiccup's wings, stretched out from behind him, as he groaned.

Hiccup brought his legs over the end of his bed, and took a deep breath, closing his eyes and focussing his mind on his wings, as just then  his wings flew up and into his back.

"Th-they were also un-confrontable..." Hiccup muttered, as he rested his head in his mother's lap, slowly closing his eyes, as Heather smiled at the sight and sat beside Hiccup's feet, resting his feet in her lap.

"He really does look so peaceful just sleeping." Heather whispered to herself, as Valka smiled.

"He sure does, doesn't he?" Valka said, Heather nodding before yawning herself.

"I'm going to hit the hay, it's getting late." Heather said, standing up as Valka noded. But before, heather dissappeared through the door, she looked at Valka one more time.

"Hey, where is Jack, Elsa, and Merida gone? And, where are the other's?" Heather asked.

"Jack, Elsa, and Merida have gonee back to there own, just to gather some stuff, they'll be back in a few days, and the other's, I believe have gone to bed." Valka said, Heather nodding before closing Hiccups hut door and going to her hut.

Valka smiled as she played with her son's hair, as she slowly picked up his head off of her lap and placed it down onto a pillow, and putting a banket over the top of him.

"Goodnight son..." Valka mumbled, before walking to her own hut.
