The Love A Dragon Rider

Chapter 7:The Terrible Twos

Hiccup's P.O.V.

"Follow us,"

Chloe held her arms around my waist as we flew down into the woods on Toothless. Astrid, Jami, and Destiny weren't too far behind us. The twins, Fishlegs, and Snotlout were a little bit behind them.

"Low-level evasive maneuvers. Come on bud,"

When you're riding a dragon, communication is key. You almost have to read each other's mind. And you have to have an open mind. Because sometimes, your dragon knows better than you. Astrid flew in front of us.

"Stormfly, up!" She called out seeing a broken tree right in front of them.

Stormfly flipped herself up, throwing Astrid into the air. She flew under the broken tree, catching Astrid on the other side. 

"You were right, Stormfly, it was down. Oh, I almost died," Astrid breathed out of relief.

"Almost died? I would have died," Snotlout complained.

We looked at Snotlout who had two twigs sticking out of his nose and some sticking out of his hair. Chloe laughed, causing me to smile. Her laugh is so contagious. I could listen to it all day. Astrid looked at him for a moment. Just as Snotlout took one of the twigs from his nose, Astrid said to him:

"That's a good look for you."

Snotlout gave her a soft smile placing the twig back in his nose. Chloe shook her head as she looked forward again. I looked around noticing someone was missing.

"Has anyone seen Fishlegs?" I asked them curiously.

"I saw him yesterday. Does that count?" Ruff asked curiously with a chuckle.

I flew Toothless down in between the trees. As we flew, Chloe and I both looked around for Fishlegs.

"Hiccup, over there," Chloe said to me as she pointed to Fishlegs, who was stuck in between two trees.

Meatlug was across from him stuck in a different tree. I landed Toothless down in the open space between the trees.

"Oh, there you are Fishlegs," I spoke as Chloe and I slid off of Toothless.

"Are you okay?" Chloe asked him kindly.

"I'm fine. Just hanging out. It's not like I crashed or anything. Okay, I crashed. There I said it," Fishlegs said to us a little ashamed.

"Come on Chlo, let's try to help him down," I said to Chloe as I walked toward him.

Together we tried to pull Fishlegs out of the tree, only to accidentally pull his pants off. Chloe and I just looked at one another for a moment.

"Oops," I spoke softly looking back at Fishlegs.

"And there goes my dignity," Fishlegs stated now embarrassed.

I looked at him for a moment before I said:

"Yeah, you're pretty stuck."

Chloe crossed her arms as she looked at me.

"So, Hiccup, how are we going to get him down?" she asked me curiously.

I thought for a moment before speaking:

"I think I know how to get him down, but you have to stay perfectly still Fishlegs."

Chloe gave me a curious look. I turned to look at Toothless, before looking at her again. She gave me a smirk.

"Why what are you guys gonna do?" Fishlegs asked curiously, also a little scared.

I motioned her to walk with me back towards Toothless. As we stood next to Toothless, I leaned closer to him, speaking quietly to him:
