Hello my readers!!! It is I!!! I'm not dead. I have just gotten a new computer and I'm now able to type til my hearts content. So this chapter will be longer then any other chapters . you've been warned!!!

Its morning once more on dragons edge and May as always woke up just before sunrise. She slowly tip toed out the  hut and looked out toward the sea. She took in a deep breath as she gazed out into the clear blue sea. She walked quietly to the shoreline to meet with Aqua who swam gracefully by the cove. There were cries of dragon waking from their slumber, stretching there wings and showing off their large fangs to one another. The fresh sea breeze carried a salty chilly feeling. May looked back up at the hut to find Astrid and Heather watching her from afar. May knew this feeling and quick headed back as she waved to the dragon.

“Your up early again, couldn't sleep?” asked Heather. May shook her head

“No, im just use to waking up at the time dragons do. It has always been like that.” trying to catch her breath. The three walked to the stables to release the dragons. The whole gang was already there stretching their arm letting out loud moans and cracking their arms.

“I know it early in the morning and i'm sure you want to forget what happened yesterday, but i'm quite curious of who these Pure Ones you talked about are?” asked Heather. May gave her a sour face. She didn't want to, but if it could help find clues to get back to the Lone Island this maybe her chance.

“Ok, but promise you won't tell anyone, not even if you stumble across them.” may looked around the stable and lead heather out the stable.

“Ok, the Pure One are the one that raised me for 5 years. I was gifted with a voice that can calm any dragon down and tame it with one song. At first it was fun, i made lots of friends and i didn’t think much about it. But as a year passed. The pure ones started sailing farther into the seas that became oceans. Months passed till we reached a island.” she said

“Was that Lone Island?’ heather questioned. May shook her head.

“I don't remember what it was called but i do remember the scary people that lived on the island. They had many scars and tattoos all around their bodies and faces. The pure ones offered there wisdom for supplies. The people wanted to know what this wisdom was.” she stayed quiet for a moment.

“You?” heather’s eyes widened.

“ yes. They threw me into a pit of wild dragons i have never seen before. They were different from the ones that i encountered before. I couldn't sing, i held my breath hoping it would all stop until. A young boy…. He jumped in front of me and fought them off. It wasn't what i wanted to see. So i pushed him aside and began to sing” her face saddened.

“Who was this boy?” asked Heather. May shook her head. “I don't remember much of him. I then fainted, when i awoke i was on the ship.” she said “I never found out who that young boy was; it wasn’t long after our ships sailed off that we were attacked by another tribe. Their leader wanted me in exchange for their lives. I couldn't hide anywhere on the ship, they were going to kill everyone. So... i sung.” her voice saddened. Heather reach her arm out and patted May’s hand.

“There was nothing else you could have done it was the best choice you had at the moment.” she said with a positive attitude.

“That's when i meet Aqua for the first time. He jump from the waves and toppled over the enemies boats. For once in my life i felt protected and and safe.” heather could see mays eyes calmed.

“Wow. so he saved you and the crew death. Kind the opposite to us since we saved our dragons” heather laughed.

“Yes, but because of that we become bonded and Aqua wouldn't leave the ships side. I was mesmerised by his ability to swim in the ocean freely and being able to go anywhere he wanted.” May then picked up a stick and drew some lines in the dirt. “‘Agua’ that mean water, it gives life to everything living; in the language of my native land i was born from.” heather looked down at the lettering.

“I've never seen writing like this, you must really be far from your original home.” heather didn't notice May began to tear up till she looked back.

“No, that's not what i meant im sorry.” she quickly said trying to keep May from starting up another dragon roar across the island.

“No, it ok, it's just hard to talk about all this after years of isolation.” she signed wiping the tears away, at the same time meatlug walked up to May and slobbered all over her face and glasses.

“Meatlug! Sorry about that May, she likes licking people when their sad.” fishlegs called out as he guided the gronkle back to the stable.

“It ok, i do feel better now, thank you meatlug” May said as she wiped the dragon drool off her glasses. As the girls followed fishlegs back to the stable Astrid was standing outside looking through a telescope.

“That's strange, Hiccup and Dagur are back. It's only been a day since they've been gone.” she said.

“Maybe something happened?” said snotlout sticking his pinkie in his ear.

“Look, Dagur is riding on Sleather now. They must have been in a hurry.” Astrid added.

Before the dragons landed on the deck Dagur jump off his dragon and aggressively walked up to May surprising everyone.

“Wait, Dagur, lets not jump to conclusion. We don't know if  the island really is the one she came from.” hiccup called out. Dagur didn't listen, he opened the small book containing the folded map.

“This, is this the island you came from?” he asked with eyes glaring widely, straight at May checking on her expression as she looked closer at the map.

She let out a gasp, tears started to roll down her cheek.

“I remember now, it doesn't look like that now… after the attack, i was told to stay on the island…” May began to cry once more causing the dragons to roar across the island. Hiccup and Dagur were surprised. Astrid race to May’s side hugging her till she calmed down and stopped the cries.

“What was that?” questioned Dagur looking down at May who was still sniffling. Hiccup too was puzzled with what they just witnessed.
