Trusting

Edited oct10/2021
(Recap) our main character was hiding in the village when hiccup and friends found her, causing her to take off into the woods, and making them chase her)

"This is where the trail gets cold guys I say we should head back to the village and get some sleep, then we can start back here tomorrow"

" hiccup our dragons are tired from flying all day, I say we stay here for the night then we can head out early tomorrow"

Ah so the thin ones name is hiccup

" I guess we might as well, ruff and tuff you guys go get firewood so we have a fire"

"Right chief! Oooh I am so going to get more wood then you!"

"Yeah right with those weak arms you couldn't even lift a twig!"

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah! Just watch me!"

Their voices fade and soon I'm left with the outhers. Time passes and the conversation is light until they all fall asleep. peering out of my hole looking around to make sure they are all asleep even the dragons. Soon I crawl out and softly pad past the group as quiet as I can looking at all of them to see who is who. there was enough conversation where I know their names but I can't really match the faces to the names yet.

I softly pad through the camp trying to be quiet but my tail clips a metal pot by the smoldering fire, I freeze quickly to see if any of them or their dragons awake but I only get a small snuffle and the chubby one turning on his side. I continue to walk until I get to the village and do my routine taking a small dip in the river on the way back to make my wounds clean from the previous night. I softly approach the camp again making sure they are all asleep and they are all there before I continue through and go back in my cave to sleep. I feel bad for the outher night because they are just kids and they don't know any better, I've been rude to them but it's kinda instinct so I can't help it. I try and get comfortable so I can sleep but I can't and realizing that I'm most likely not going to sleep anytime soon, I peer my head out of the hole, I know they have dragons but these kids are young and my mothering instinct doesn't want them all out here defenseless.

Watching them for awhile  it seems fairly peaceful only a few deer herds pass by every once and awhile, soon I see the kids start shivering and me not wanting any of them to freeze to death regardless if they are after me or not I get out fully and lumber through the camp. I get to the fire which it's mostly coals at this point, and pick some branches up from a pile nearby, placing them in the fire pit, blowing a small puff of cooler yellow fire onto the sticks and they are ignited instantly. My fire while being black takes longer to put out and less to keep alive but I can change the heat I put behind it black is the hottest while red/yellow the coolest I make sure the fire is going strong before I make sure the kids are ok. The ones with blankets I make sure they have them on and the ones without I make sure they are close enough to either their dragon or the fire so they won't freeze to death. A small memory comes to my mind of two young kids before shaking my head and snapping myself out of it. Realizing the sun should be up in a few hours I quietly walk back to my cave, looking back once to be positive they are all right before I enter sliding down inside, finally able to get some sleep after heating up the stone and falling asleep.
