Hey my wonderful people, just a recap of what happened after that. Aloe was now fourteen, she rides the young nightfury, Nightstaker. She meets her best friend Stricker when they were nine. She grew up to be a true heartbreaker. She inherited Hiccup's feature(auburn hair, green eyes, etc). Don't be fouled, she's quiet the fighter. Best in combat if I do say so myself. = } Even pretty faces can fight back!
Aloe POV

I woke to the sound of Nightstaker growling protectively over me. Stricker was trying to wake me without losing a hand, again. I moved a little to let them know I was up. I quickly got dressed and rushed down stairs to find them sneaking off."Hurry up Aloe, midnight doesn't last forever."Stricker said pushing me out the door."You know I can't go to the fighting arena midnight opening. My dad said..."I began finding what I said next naturally"You know what, let's go. After all it's only one night of the year."

We headed off on our dragons. I flew high so no one would notice Nightstaker. Having the cover of darkness and speed, and I mean speed, was all I needed. Having an aerodynamic body, armour, and weapons, along with my sleek, thin dragon, I made it to the cave training base with ease. A few moments later Stricker showed up, shaking his head saying"How do you do it? I get the training for years part, experience, but you and your dragon are unbeatable!"He complained. I pulled out my modified dager and walked in, Stricker pulled out his sword and followed. We walked in turning the heads of other teen-age sneak aways. After all, being the chief's daughter that wasn't supported to be there, it'd draw attention. I soon found a piece of equipment that wasn't taken and started doing advanced spin attacks and slits, half the people twice my age and size couldn't pull of. Stricker wasn't having my luck, he was get pick on by bigger teens(most teens) so I intervened."Hey! Back off! He and I could pull off more advanced moves then your entire group!"I yelled. They all 'ohhh'ed after I finished. The big brute was three times my height, probably four times my weight."Is that a challenge I smell?"he breath a noxious gas. He probably thought because I was small and a girl I couldn't take him."Only if you strike the first blow."I said, bowing as I did. I may have been a girl, but I was the strong, female version of my dad when he was my age."Well then,"he began to punch"look who got a..."he stop and realized I move from my place in front of him, to besides him with my dager at his neck. He stopped in surprise and because of the extremely sharp blade. I saw someone all to familiar come in. It was time for my disappearing act. We swiftly duck out of sight, and headed back to my training spot.

We continued training, I put my blade away and brought out a regular dager. The only real difference in the blades were the size of the tips and the way I held them. My dad made me a thigh band to store weapons and made my modified dager. He'd spot it in an instant.  I hated the way to hold a regular dager, and it showed, my moves were sloppy, slits were slow. I stuck out like a sore thumb, so I decided to take the risk and took out my signature blade. My moves increased, making me stick out more. A hand caught my wrist in a spin attack. I looked into the same green eyes I had, but I didn't see disappointment, I saw pride. Dad nodded as if saying 'why not a proper demonstration. So I continued showing off, giving everything I had into the wooden board.

Before I knew it there was hardly anything left of the plank. It was now splinters, a sad pile on the floor. I turned around and saw over thirty astonished faces, one pleased, one shocked. I ran off through the crowd, they followed. I found Nightstaker and Toothless side by side. I got on Nightstaker, flying so fast we almost broke the sound barrier. I was soon followed by my father, even more pride shined through his eyes, as did my show the same."Race you back,"I said" Not like you can caught us!"I said. A glimmer of passion showed through the pride filled the face of my father's relatively young face."Oh really, we'll see!"He said passionately."I'll give you a head start to prove it."I retorted. I nodded go, with a shrug he was off. We soon followed , easily surpassing them.

Back at the house, we waited for my dad. I found Stricker already there, he took a short cut back. Dad wasn't back, I went out looking for him. There was then an ear splitting scream. I headed towards the person that made the terrible cry.

I saw an unknown village woman and dad. I grabbed my dager, only barely being seen by dad and the woman. They stiffened, making it harder for them to be dragged of. I snuck behind the tall, musclly man. Bringing all fight and sneaking lessons. I quickly got the man's attention"Hey, let them go! I'm the one you want!"I yelled and ran of. He dropped the woman and dad to run after me. I occasionally stopped to let him gain on me. I finally reached Nightstaker, just barely getting out of reach. I dangled as my faithful companion flew high enough the man couldn't touch me without help.

I saw dad and Stricker rounding the corner. Stricker never went near the man, I was dangling from my dragon. I did a tight flip to get down. Finding my dager, I ran to my father's side as my friend ran to get more help."You have nowhere to go, just join us, stop fighting us."He told the mystery man."Oh, Hiccup. Do you not remember what happened eight years ago? The fire, the ash. I only wanted more protection."The man spoke soft, as if he was my brother. If what happened happened eight years ago, then I was six, to young to understand what I did now."You're saying the last meeting of chiefs, my dad..."I stopped talking to the man, now I was talking to my father"You almost died? Why didn't you say anything?"I was now smoking with rage. I saw the mysterious man try to get away, I nodded to Nightstaker to get him. I was now at his throught with the blade, waiting for my chief's orders. He nodded and said"take him to a holding cell, he'll be confined there till we can move him again."He spoke forcefully.

I walked to my dragon, having him pick up the strange man with his feet. We flew to the holding cells, and put him in. We went back to the house to speak with my dad about the meeting.
