New Life Ahead [HTTYD]

Chapter 10: Dragon's Reasons and Human Ideas

It had been a week since the incident, but the four Night Furies soon put it behind them.

The hatchling had been surprisingly forgiving of the whole ordeal, as the first thing he asked once he got over the trauma was whether or not his new friend was in trouble. Both parents had responded in the negative.

Hiccup had gotten used to his new body; learning how to fly, how to catch fish, and even the etiquette between dragons in the society. The latter of which was his least favorite.

When a female Deadly Nadder asked whether he was available, Hiccup, thinking she wanted his help with something, naively responded yes. She had purred seductively, and then asked him to meet her back at her part of the cave. Hiccup, not knowing any better, agreed.

He never expected to walk into her cave to see her... presenting. He immediately ran from the cave, disturbed and traumatized and leaving the Nadder very confused and unsatisfied.

He still couldn't get over the fact that the females here were easier to get than the women in the Viking village. That earned him a smack over the head by the female Night Fury's tail when he said that out loud.

The Deadly Nadder later approached him and apologized, after the male Fury had searched her out to explain the situation. Both him and the Nadder were on good terms now, even though she kept trying to court him every once in a while. Hiccup refused every time.

While he no longer required clothing due to his dragon body, the male Night Fury revealed that he had kept Hiccup's torn green undershirt. Hiccup was happy that at least he could keep something as memorabilia of his past human life.

He was confused though as to why the shirt was wet and gooey. Whenever he tried to ask why, the male Night Fury responded that he didn't really want to know.

His question was answered after seeing the female Night Fury regurgitate fish for the young hatchling. He took one look at his shirt, and then his thoughts went back to the pile of fish he had devoured during his first days as a dragon.

Several minutes later, the four Night Furies had to move somewhere else, as Hiccup vomited on the spot, which was, unfortunately, directly in the middle of the cave home. The Furies were upset, but they were kind enough to at least help the former human become more desensitized to the fact that dragons would do certain things other humans found disgusting.

Hiccup still burned the shirt though.

Still, despite a few incidents, Hiccup began to see the dragon family as his own true family. The couple was always kind to him and the hatchling was always fun to play with. And as the Furies were happy with him, the other dragons took their cue and began to accept Hiccup as just another dragon in the Nest.

However, the one thing that bothered Hiccup was the fact that he was ignoring the dragons every time they went on a raid. At first, he had expressed his opinion openly to the Night Fury family.

"I don't get it." he said.

The male Night Fury looked up from watching his son play with his mate. "What don't you get?" he asked, looking at Hiccup curiously.

"You dragons always raid our village, and yet you seem to have it good here. Why steal our sheep and attack us in the process?" he asked.
