A/n: Hi, like I said in the previous chapter, the next one is right here

Enjoy :)


At the evening, Blake was at the forge, sharpening a sword while Gobber and Thunder looked at him

"There, it's done" Blake said as he showed Gobber the sword who analyzed it

"Hmm... too light and it still needs sharpening" Gobber said

"You know, this would be easier if you taught me how to do it" Blake said annoyed

"I know, but I'm a believer in learning on the job" Gobber said

"I noticed" Blake said annoyed

"But I must say, you're not doing it bad" Gobber said as he placed a hand on Blake's shoulder "You seem to be a quick learner"

"Because I'm one" Blake said "However, I have to say... I kinda feel like I've done this before even though I haven't"

Then, Thunder happily nudged to comfort him, so Blake just gave him a few head pats

"Let me try again" Blake said

"Actually, that's enough for today, you've already done enough" Gobber said as he gestured at a small pile of weapons

"I don't like to stop practicing until I have dominated the skill" Blake said

"It's good to practice but if you push yourself too far it won't be good for you" Gobber said

"I already know that, I learned it the hard way" Blake said with a small shiver

"Well, in that case you saved me the trouble of having to explain it" Gobber said

"Ugh... fine, I'll stop at least for now" Blake said as he began to exit the forge

"See you around then" Gobber said

Minutes later, Blake and Thunder were flying above Berk

"It's... bigger than I taught... I wonder if I'll be able to do this on my own" Blake whispered, even though up at the sky Thunder was the only one that could hear him, he didn't want him to

"I should probably attack the forge first to leave them defenseless... but... the moment I attack the forge the other riders will attack me" Blake whispered

"Those twins and their Zippleback could be useful, they don't look too smart" Blake whispered "It shouldn't be too hard to trick them into helping me"

Blake let escape a small cold laugh that Thunder was able to hear, so he grunted to get Blake's attention

"Don't worry, Thunder... I was just... thinking" Blake quickly lied "Could you take me back?"

Thunder nodded and flew back to the forest, Blake had chosen to apart himself from others, and he was rarely seen at the village

The only one who he went to see was Gobber and sometimes he was also seen around with the twins but he was just with them so they wouldn't annoy him

It only a few minutes for Thunder to land back at the forest, so Blake got off his back

"Thanks, Thunder" Blake said as he petted him "You know... I never thought I'd trust a dragon more than anyone here"

"It's really ironic, isn't it?" a voice asked, it was Hiccup "The dragon you wanted to kill is the one you trust the most"
