In Dragons We Trust

As you fly through life,

Astrid fell from the sky, completely relaxed, a smile small stretched across her lips like there are no worries in the world despite that she is falling above the sea about to hit the water with a large impact that may give her a sore body for a couple of weeks and it will take an eternity for the soreness to subside. She didn't care as her golden braid flew gracefully. She felt the cool breeze around her body like always, it's was nice.

It's always good to know who you can trust...

Astrid turned around her body so her front is facing the water beneath her, eyes still closed and the smile on her face still stayed. She breathed, slowly.

And who you can't.

Before she could hit the body of water, she turned into a standing position, legs slightly parted then a white shadow swooped in and now she's sitting on its back, just in time. Her heart did sped up when it was getting closer.

"Nice catch, girl." Astrid complimented, patting the side of the jet white dragon's head. "A little close." She commented with slight worrisome in her tone as she looked behind her to see several feet of almost hitting the cold sea and maybe the worst possibility is drowning, but good thing it didn't happened.

I know I can always count on Starlight.

The Nordic blonde shifted her metal leg at the pedal to open the bright purple tail. Starlight opened her pearlescent white wings as the wind push them then the both of them began to fly upwards.

And it's important for her to know that no matter what, she can count on me.

They both reunited with the riders, who were patiently waiting for her to finish on what both of them had done. "Your turn, Hiccup." She instructed — that earned her a smirk from the auburn-haired boy. He turned to the wild blonde who was looking at him expectantly, make sense because she is after all his childhood friend before Hiccup finally took a glance at her presence when they were babies.

"Come one, bud." He whispered at the Night Fury, the two began fly in the sky — higher than the girls' did. Astrid shook her head fondly at him. There goes Mr. Show-off again... He always has to make things a competition for him, she doesn't know why her fiancé/boyfriend does this... But she didn't mind one bit. It's always nice to see other people bring out the best they got with their greatest effort. The jet black dragon flapped its wings, then Hiccup dived backwards falling on his back with no fear of the world and has determination displayed on his face and he was about an inch to falling into the water, the Night Fury grabbed his feet with his paws then Hiccup used it for his advantage by doing a forward flip then landing on his back. Both of them began flying up back at them.

"Hmm..." Camicazi huffed. "You can do better than that." She taunted him, Stormfly roared, nodding her head as an agreement.

"Fishlegs, your turn." Hiccup told the large boy.

"I don't wanna jump!" Fishlegs protested, fearfully. Hiccup sighed then grumbled something under his breath. Here we go again...

"You have to believe she's gonna catch you." Astrid advised him. "It's a trust exercise." She reminded him, gently. They are now currently doing a Trust Exercise for Camicazi to master (also for the others because Astrid learned her lesson with the Typhoomerang situation), because trust goes both ways. Granted, the stunts that the Bog-heir performed at the forest was impressive to say the least considering her being experience in those types of things were one of the factors that contributed it, she was completely in sync with Stormfly similarly like her and Starlight, but they were on land, she wasn't sure if she is going to be able to do it above the water.
