Dragon Teens

Astrid pov.

Astrid
And with that he and his dragon were gone. 
Gobber had snuck on a fake fin that locked into place so they could leave. 

Stoick had this done while the mystery boy read the letter. 
I wish him luck. 
Yet... 
I wish he hadn't left. 

A several years have passed since then. 
I have found no one and am still waiting. 

The dragons are going away now. 
I worry they won't ever come back. 
Stoick has become very open to dragons...  But closed off at the same time.

Night Furies are especially welcome,  but none ever came. 

I rest my head on my hands and stare at the clouds. 
I wish I could fly. 
I always wanted to. 

I feel a tingling on my spine. 
I look and see a pair of Nadder wings extending out my back. 
My tail is growing too. 

I feel the wings finish growing. 
I see a black streak now and then,  crossing the sky...
But I shake it off. 

It couldn't be. 
The dragons are gone. 
I see it again and flap my wings. 

I take to the sky.
I see a dark smudge racing away. 
I follow it until we stop on a cliff. 
They see me in the daylight and the man turns to me. 

He leans on a tree.
His left leg is crossed behind his back. 
He seems to savour it. 
He has a large hold and larger than life wings. 

They have to be four hundred feet each. 
I fold my wings with embarrassment. 
They're barely big enough to carry me now. 

The mn smiles at my embarrassed face. 
I see his lip form a smile. 

He comments,  "I was wondering when you would join me. "
I blink and reply,  "What? "
He whispers,  sad and confused, "I was waiting for you. I would fly over head every day to try and find you.  I can't...  I can't walk to find you...  And Berk was getting along so well without me disturbing your dragonic peace...  I didn't want to fly low enough to get caught in another trap.'

I ask,  "Who are you? "
This seems to be of no surprise. 
He replies,  "I'm Ash. You won't know my name... Of course..  But maybe I can jog your memory? "

His Hood falls. 
The boy who I had fallen for all those years ago is here now. 
His face is fully scaled and his bright purple eyes gleam happily. 

He hugs me and I ask why he hasn't returned to Berk. 
He laughs,  "I cannot help much there.  I'm s bit worn from Dragos' dragon traps.  See? "

His foot I though was behind him,  in fact,  is gone. 

Ash laughs heartily at my shock. 
Ash comments,  "We took em down,  eh bro? "

A  man like Ash appears hanging from his tail. 
The tree creaks under his weight. 
The man has a mischievous look in his eyes as he growls,  "Yah!  We took down that phsyco! Well,  you did and I slept. "

I laugh. 
Then I remember his missing limb. 
I ask how he gets around. 

He flaps his wings and looks at his remaining leg. 
He sighs,  "I really do wish I could get a new foot,  but it's beyond my control. "
I remember Gobber and chirp,  "We can get you one. Come on. "

The two men follow me into the air. 

We lnd at Berk and I demand they tell me everything. 
Ash begins to talk. 
He tells me about everything like it was a very uneventful thing that doesn't bear mention.
