Hicstrid-The War (Completed)

chapter 5~The Partner

Astrid's POV:

The air was still with pure fear floating in the air. The cave radiated with heat as cold air blowed into the cave. The beast laid in front of us. I drew my cold blade from my back.

The beast looked up as I drew it. Blood was scattered around the cave. The dragon acted aggressive towards us. I got ready to swing at the beast as it walked towards us and got ready to shoot at us. As I got ready to swing, a hand touched my axe and through it across the room. The beast shot a blast directly at me. As the flash erupted in the cave a body fell on me.

I blacked out.

Hiccup's pov:

'Toothless will kill them.' Was what I thought as I headed for the cave. The air was cold and the snow was soaking into my sock. Small flakes of snow flew onto my naked torso. The cave neared closer. I ran into the entrance and heat overwhelmed my body.

A couple feet in front of me, I saw them. Toothless was about to shoot at the kind nurse, Astrid. I ran up to her and grabbed her axe. I through it across the cave and faced Toothless. I tried to reason with him but the affects of the arrow were too strong. I flung my body onto Astrid as it was Toothless' target and he shot a plasma blast.

At me. I blacked out.

Astrid's POV:

I woke up to the strange boy to my side. I sat up as a breeze of cold air overwhelmed my body. I looked around and saw Dagur by a fire with heather along side him. I walked up to him and sat down.

"Well good morning." He said as he stirred the liquid in the pot. "What happened?" I asked as I warmed my body against the fire.

"Well, you were about to kill that Nightfury then that strange boy came in and through your Axe across the cave and started talking to the dragon. We think he is the Dragon Master everyone fears." He said as he kept stirring the liquid.

I got up and walked over to the boy. I rolled him over and picked him up. His skin was ice cold and the wound on his side was covered in clotted blood. His hair had small snowflakes in it. He nestled up close to my body and his cold skin made me shiver.

I laid him down next to the fire and sat next to him. "Where is the dragon?" I asked as I placed my hands over the fire. "He's behind you, Dagur is working on a antibiotic that will help the dragon."
"My sister is right, the dragon was shot by a dragon root arrow, I've worked in making the antibiotic before so hopefully it will work on the Nightfury." Dagur said as he poored the liquid into a cup.

He walked over to the beast and gave the antibiotic to him. The dragon shot up and soon sank back down. "The antibiotic will take a second to start to work." He said as he went to sit back down.

I looked at the boy that laid next to me. He was really thin, his skin sunk around his ribs and made them easily visible. His aburn hair was messy but made him look extremely cute.

The boy started to shiver. I leaned up against him and his small body shrinked into my body. I found myself drifting to sleep and I soon did.

Hiccup's pov:

' He never cares about me, if I were to disappear, he wouldn't even go looking for me!' I said to Gobber as I worked in the forge. The heat of the fire was comforting. In the distance I could see Astrid and her gang. "Anyways, I got to go, bye Gobber!" I yelled as I left the forge. I got no response. I was leaving for dragon training with Toothless, but when I came back, I got so mad I stormed out of my house and ran for Toothless. I left and Astrid followed me. That night was all my fault. Toothless struck a plasma blast at her. I yelled her name.

"ASTRID!!"

oOo

Astrid's POV:

I woke up to my name. "ASTRID!!" I looked over to my side and the strange boy was sitting up breathing heavy. The black beast came up on his side and nestled next to him. "Its ok bud, just the same dream." He said breathing heavy.

"Are you ok?" I asked and he glanced over at me. He turned red in the face and looked away. He never answered my question.

oOo

Astrid's POV:

We were getting ready to leave the cave. The boy sat in the corner putting on a fur coat. On the side it had the initials HH. Was it him?
No he was dead.
He pulled out a prosthetic he had in his satchal that rested on the dragon's side. I walked over to him and sighed.

"Who are you?" I asked and he turned red in the face.

No response. Of course. "I asked... Because my friend, Dagur....thinks you....are....the ....Dragon Master." I said and he turned away. "Yes I am the Dragon Master." He said as he led his Nightfury out.

"Look, I know what the Meatheads are planning to do here and it isn't going to be pretty. I have a plan to rescue as many people as possible, on the far side of the island is a boat called 'The Reaper" I will be leading people out of here and to my island. If you want to survive, you are going to want to come with me."

The Dragon Master said. I nodded and we headed out.

What were they planning on doing?
