HTTYD FF Ch 2

All the way home, Toothless had his ears up and twitching, turning his head to look behind them every now and again, each time returning facing forward with a smile on his face.

Night Sky had decided to take her brother Night Rider's suggestion, and followed him and the boy back to wherever they came from to see for herself if what he said was true.

After flying for two hundred wing beats, Toothless called back while still moving on 'I know you're there sister, why don't you come out and fly with us instead of trailing behind like a Tiny One?'

'I am no Tiny One brother,' she replied huffing but coming out anyway coming right up next to him.

"Hey you're following us then?" Hiccup asked smiling happily while rubbing his eyes a bit. "After the way you and Toothless left things I thought you wouldn't want to come with us."

'Toothless?' Night Sky asked cocking her head confused.

'That's what the Prince and the other Humans call me,' Toothless confirmed. 'My dragon name is Noche Oscura, but when we met he saw me with me teeth retracted and thought that I had none, so that's how I got that name.'


'Why do you keep calling the boy 'Prince'?' Night Sky asked not saying what her name is and not planing to until she knew she could trust them a bit more.

'Because he's the prince of the village from which we come from.' Toothless said answering her right away making her pause and hover in the sky a bit.

'That boy is a prince to a village?' Night Sky asked making sure she understood humor in her voice, getting a nod from Toothless. 'But he is nothing more than walking twig. How can he...' she had to stop her questions when Toothless shot a plasma-blast at her in anger that she was making fun of Hiccup.

'I know what he is sister,'  he said annoyed 'He's the one who looked after me and brought me back to health after he shot me down because he first felt guilty. He's the one Viking who wouldn't kill me when he found me in the net he shot at me. He's the one who along with me defeated our queen and let our people finally become free and bought us together. And he's the one who, as I said earlier, made sure I was able to fly and that we were out here tonight to free you from your net.
'So if you have a problem with any of that, you can just leave us now.'

With that, Toothless turned to face the right direction again, not caring if the she-dragon was following them or not anymore mumbling curses under his breath at her.

'I'm sorry,' a small voice said making him stop and look back. 'I... I didn't mean anything bad when I said what I did, but come on brother, can't you see for yourself that that is what he is?'

"You know I've also been called a 'toothpick' and 'a talking fish bone'," Hiccup said smirking getting an idea what they were arguing about now by the way Toothless reacted before after he spoke to her - names.

'He can understand us?' Night Sky asked amazed as they landed on the very edge of Berk, the one furthest away from the village so they could still talk.

'Not that I know of,' Toothless said bumping Hiccup gently with his nose as he got off. 'He's just more observant than the other Humans.'

 
As the village came into view Night Sky pulled back a bit not sure if this was a good idea or not.

Seeing this Hiccup stop and thought.

"Would you prefer to stay at the cove until you can trust me better?" he asked smiling and holding out his hand in front of her looking away a bit, but not feeling anything, he let it down and turned to her instead.

'The cove?' Night Sky asked confused looking at Toothless.

'That's where he looked after me, while the Vikings were still battling with us, so I'd be safe.' Toothless said explaining. 'You'll love it there, trees to draw with, a pond with food always swimming in it, grass to lie on, and there's even a cave there in case it rains or you want to be alone.'

Thinking that that would be nice and as the Prince said give her a better chance to learn she can trust him, Night Sky nodded and smiled a bit cooing slightly.

Getting back onto Toothless, Hiccup slid his foot into the pedal and they took off to show her where the cove was landing a few minutes later where it all began for the boy and his dragon.

'Welcome to what was my home, before we defeated the queen,' Toothless said opening his wings and looking very prideful as the she-dragon looked around. 'Well hope you get settled in alright. Now I need to get Hiccup back home before his Sire awakes and finds us gone and gets worried. Strangely the King is very protecting over him.'

With that Toothless and Hiccup took off and flew back the way they came, leaving Night Sky to get some rest in the cave.

The next morning, Hiccup was preparing a basket of fish to give to the other Night Fury that they found the night before, when Fishlegs came up and asked what they were going to be doing at the Dragon Academy today.

"Er..." Hiccup said forgetting that they had a lesson today. "To be honest I don't know Fishlegs," he said "Something came up last night and it completely slipped my mind."

"Bet it was another one of your stupid nightmares," Snotlout's voice sounded as he and the twins came over as well laughing slightly, gaining more volume when Astrid came over and sucker punched Snotlout for that remark making him roll on the ground in pain.

"Well no," Hiccup said not caring his cousin was on the floor in pain like that "But it had something to do with that."

 "Oh..." Fishlegs said spotting the basket of fish "It's a dragon isn't it? Why didn't you tell us? What is it? A Nadder?"

"No," "A Zippleback?" "No," "A Scauldren?" "No," "A..."

"Fishlegs it's not any of the common dragons that Berk has," Hiccup cried out meaning Toothless was next to him in a few minutes to see what was wrong. "And I didn't say anything because we only found her last night, and it seems she doesn't trust humans all that much. But that might of had something to do with us finding her caught in a net where we found her. Right bud?" he asked Toothless getting a nod.

"So it's not a common Dragon," Fishlegs said determined to work out what it was flipping through the imprinted in his brain Book of Dragons "Is it a..."

"It was that other Night Fury wasn't it?" Ruffnut asked making everyone look at her each one with a surprised look on their faces.

"You found another Night Fury?" they cried turning back to Hiccup who just stayed looking at Ruff and asked...

"Er... how do you know about that?"

"Well, last night I was woken up by him," she said shifting her head to her twin brother who was trying to work out how to steal Gobber's breakfast sandwich he just placed down on his windowsill. "And needed the l..."

"Ok I think that's enough explaining. Thank you Ruff," Hiccup said stopping her shaking his head a bit to get rid of the picture that was coming up. "But yes that's the dragon we found. But as I said she seems she doesn't trust humans all that much, so if you excuse me..." he said lifting the basket onto his back as he set off to the cove on foot meaning the others would hopefully get lost, seeing as they don't know where it is or how to get through the forest the way Hiccup does.

But he forgot one small detail...

"Well..." Astrid asked, out of instinct slipping her double bladed axe into her belt, as she looked to Fishlegs.

"Well what?" he asked confused.

"Don't you want to see another Night Fury then Fishlegs?" she asked "You know see how she reacts to Hiccup and Toothless, and all that stuff?" she asked climbing onto Stormfly.

"But we don't know where it is Astrid," Fishlegs said hoisting himself onto Meatlug.

"Oh I have a pretty good idea where Hiccup might be keeping her."

With that, as soon as everyone was ready, with Astrid guiding them they set off to the cove.
