Chapter 2

Third POV

That afternoon, while Hiccup was trying to find the dragon at Raven Point, he was marking in his notebook where he already looked. He got frustrated and scribbled all over his little map. He put the notebook away and sighed. "All the gods hate me. Some people lose their knife in the mud, no not me, I manage to lose an entire dragon!" Hiccup said while smacking a tree branch. The tree branch came back at him and smacked him in the face. Hiccup realized that there was a trail of dirt on the ground. He followed the dirt trail and saw where the dragon was supposed to be. But there was no dragon. The bolas were there, but no dragon. Hiccup looked around and found a cove.
"Well this was stupid," Hiccup whispered to himself. He then saw a girl. She was sitting by the pond. The girl had long brown hair. Hiccup couldn't see her face. Then, Hiccup went down and went to talk to her. "Hey," Hiccup said and the girl jumped then got on all fours and started growling. Hiccup jumped back in surprise. He noticed that she had very pretty blue eyes. Kind of like Astrid's eyes but a darker blue. She had on an all-black outfit that looked to be made out of scales. She had a black skirt with black leggings and a black shirt. She wore black fabric fur boots. She was also very pretty.
"Are you okay?" Hiccup asked the girl. The pretty girl seemed to understand him. She crawled towards him. She sniffed him and then quickly backed away while growling. Hiccup was confused about why the girl was growling like a dragon and why the girl's eyes held fear. She couldn't possibly be scared of little fishbone Hiccup, could she? Hiccup thought about what could possibly be scaring her and realized that it what his knife. He showed his knife to her and she growled at it. Hiccup went to touch it and she growled louder. Hiccup quickly grabbed his knife and pointed it at the girl. She stared at him then stood up on two legs and walked over to him cautiously. Hiccup backed away from the girl as she came closer. As she walked, she grew wings and a tail, and then she transformed into a full-grown Night Fury. Hiccup noticed that she only had one back tail fin as he backed away from her. She transformed back into a hybrid. Hiccup pointed his knife at her, scared. The girl then backed away while growling. Then the growling turned into whining. Hiccup startled, took his knife and slowly walked towards the girl with his knife. The girl crawled backward until she was up against the cove wall. She stopped whining and stared at him. The girl spoke. "P-please d-don't," she whispered and Hiccup noticed that she didn't have good Norse, but what she said surprised Hiccup. Hiccup didn't say anything to the hybrid dragon. The girl's eyes held sadness and fear. She then crawled against the wall away from Hiccup. Hiccup took his chance and ran out of the cove. He didn't notice that the girl was following him.
When Hiccup made it to his house it was dark. He then ran into his house and was trying to avoid his dad. He quietly went up the stairs when, "Hiccup," Stoick said to Hiccup. "Dad, I have to talk to you, dad," Hiccup said to his dad. "I need to speak with you too, son," Stoick said while turning towards Hiccup. "I think it's time I don't want to fight dragons." "I think it's time you learn to fight dragons." Stoick and Hiccup said at the same time. "Huh, what?" They both said simultaneously. "You go first," Stoick said while motioning Hiccup to speak first. "No, no. You go first," Hiccup insisted. "Alright. You got your wish. Dragon training and you start in the morning," Stoick said and Hiccup stumbled over his words, "Aww. Man, I should've gone first. Because I was thinking. You know, we have a surplus of dragon-fighting Vikings. But do we have enough, bread making Vikings or small home repair Vikings?" Hiccup asked while making gestures with his hands. "You'll need this," Stoick said while handing Hiccup a large ax. "I don't want to fight dragons," Hiccup said while the ax weighed him down. "Hahaha. C'mon yes, you do," Stoick laughed. "Rephrase, dad, I can't kill dragons," Hiccup tried to explain. "But you will kill dragons," Stoick said while towering over Hiccup. "No, I'm really extra sure that I won't," Hiccup said to his dad who wasn't really listening. "It's time, Hiccup," Stoick said and Hiccup asked, "Can you not hear me?" "This is serious, son. When you carry this ax," Stoick started while holding the ax that was in Hiccup's arms, "you carry all of us with you. Which means you walk like us. You talk like us. You think like us. No more of this," Stoick said while gesturing to Hiccup. "You just gestured to all of me," Hiccup said. "Deal?" Stoick asked. "This conversation is feeling very one-sided," Hiccup commented. "Deal!?" Stoick asked again in a more stern voice and Hiccup sighed, "Deal." "Good. Train hard. I'll be back. Probably," Stoick said while picking up a basket. "And I'll be here, maybe," Hiccup said as his dad left the house.
In the morning, Hiccup noticed that the girl was outside on his porch sleeping. The girl was in her hybrid form and her wings were wrapped around her body. "Hey," Hiccup said. She woke up and went into an attack position when she noticed that it was only Hiccup. She relaxed and stood up being cautious of the ax. Hiccup walked out towards her with his ax and the girl backed away. "No, no, no. It's okay," Hiccup said while putting the ax down. She slowly walked towards him. "I am Sam," she said. "How did you get here?" Hiccup asked Sam. "I followed you," she answered. "Uhh, that's not really what I meant and that's a little creepy," Hiccup commented. "I go with you to training!" Sam exclaimed. "Umm. Okay, you can just watch, okay?" Hiccup asked and Sam nodded excitedly. "You have to get rid of the tail and wings for now," Hiccup said to Sam who nodded and put away her wings and tail. Hiccup watched in amazement and then lead Sam to the top of the arena and told her that this was where she would watch it.
Hiccup then walked down to training with his ax. "Welcome to dragon training," Gobber said while opening the gates. "No turning back," Astrid said as the teens all walked into the arena. "I hope I get some serious burns," Tuffnut said while looking around the arena. "I'm hoping for some mauling, like on my shoulder or lower back," Ruffnut said while rolling her shoulder. "Yeah, it's only fun if you get a scar out of it," Astrid commented. "Yeah, no kidding right. Pain, love it," Hiccup said, making himself known. "Oh, great who let him in?" Ruffnut asked and Sam was getting mad at Ruffnut. "Let's get started. The recruit who does best will win the honor of killing their first dragon in front of the entire village," Gobber said while twisting his hook. "Hiccup already killed a Night Fury. So, does that disqualify him or?" Snotlout asked sarcastically. Sam was curious as to what they were training for since it was very hard to hear even with her dragon hearing. The twins laughed. "Can I transfer to the class with the cool Vikings?" Tuffnut asked. "Don't worry. You're small and you're weak. That will make you less of a target. They'll see you as sick or insane and go after the more Viking like teens instead," Gobber said to Hiccup while clapping a hand on his shoulder before walking to the big doors. "Behind these doors are just a few of the many species you will learn to fight," Gobber called out. Then he started to name them while walking past their cage. "The Deadly Nadder," he commented. "Speed: 8, armor: 16," Fishlegs said. "The Hideous Zippleback," he added. "Stealth times two," Fishlegs whispered. "The Monstrous Nightmare," Gobber said while walking passed the door. "Firepower: 15," Fishlegs said loudly. "The Terrible Terror," Gobber added. "Attack: 8, Venom: 12!" Fishlegs said very loudly. "Can you stop that! And the Gronckle," Gobber said while putting his hand on the lever. "Jaw strength: 8," Fishlegs whispered. "Woah, Woah, Woah. Wait. Aren't you going to teach us first?" Snotlout asked in a panic voice. "I believe in learning in the job," Gobber said while pulling the lever, letting the Gronckle out. Sam was terrified for Hiccup.
