《The Soul Of A Night Fury [How To Train Your Dragon] EDITING》Morning Race
Advertisement
I waited outside of Hiccup's house with my Deadly Nadder, Stormfly. I noticed Toothless asleep on the roof. So that means Hiccup didn't go out today. It's been one full week since the Red Death battle. Thanks to Hiccup, Dragons and Vikings live peacefully on Berk. Hiccup's doing okay too. He's still coping with not having part of his leg but I'm sure he'll survive it.
He's a Viking he can live with it. "... Hey sorry, I'm late," Hiccup came out of his house yawning then looked up at Toothless on the roof.
"You finally decide to show up," I say to him.
He whistled to Toothless then looked at me. "Yeah. I'm sorry." Toothless came down then started purring by Hiccup's side.
"Well your up now, so let's go," I say to him. He looks at me then to Toothless.
For the short period of time he was looking at me I notice something different... No, I'm just seeing things. "Okay, let's go," he says then gets on Toothless. I climb on Stormfly. "The last one to the cove has to drink rotten Yak Milk," he says then shoots up into the sky quickly.
Of course. Night Furies are fast. Deadly Nadder's are fast too. But not as fast as Night Furies.
"Stormfly go! Catch up to Toothless!" She shoots up into the sky. I see Toothless and Hiccup waiting in the air. Once he knows I'm up they shoot off into the direction of the cove. Typical Hiccup! I shot after him but can't catch up. I try to go faster. Can't see then.
Huh? I could've sworn he was here. Stormfly stops flying forward and just hovers in the spot. Where'd did he go? "Hiccup?" No reply. "Hiccup?"

Just then the clouds above me moved as a Night Fury came down quickly. "You called?" Hiccup asked.
"Disappearing act. Very funny."
"I don't know why you stayed here looking for me." He started. "If you have continued going you would've been at the Cove already." He adds then flies off a full speed.
Oh, he's right. If I wasn't so worried about where he was, I would've beat him. "C'mon Stormfly, after him," Stormfly shoots after him as fast as she can. But of course, I lost him.
After a few seconds, I see the cove. "Yes!" I fly down quickly landing by the spring. No sign of Hiccup or Toothless. "Yes, I beat him!"
"You really think so?"
I whip around to see Hiccup sitting on a rock and Toothless staring at me from an overhanging branch. "How long have you been here?" I ask him.
Hiccup looked at his leg then looked up. "About a minute or so." He started then balanced himself on both legs. "Never underestimate the speed of a Night Fury,"
"I know. They're fast," I say sighing.
"Deadly Nadders have incredible speed too, but they're heavy, they weigh themselves down, so their speed goes down." It's a good thing Hiccup knows a lot about dragons. If it weren't for him, everyone with Dragons on Berk would be so clueless.
"That's true," I say to him.
He sits gone in the center of a dirt circle with a lot of lines in it. He avoided all the lines than found himself in the middle. He sits on the rock in the middle then looked at me.
I slowly walk away from Stormfly. As I walk I step on one of the lines. Toothless growled from his spot. I lift my foot quickly. Toothless relaxed.

"Don't step on the lines," Hiccup pointed out.
"Okay..." I breathe then walk over the lines. I moved back and forth, left and right to try and avoid the lines. Slowly and carefully I reach the centre where Hiccup was. "What's that all that about?" I ask sitting down.
"Oh, when a Toothless and I first met, he drew this picture with a tree. I don't know what it is, but it means something to him." Hiccup started. "When you step on a line it's like breaking trust. I gained his trust after he drew this."
"You and Toothless really do have a good relationship."
"Yeah. We do, don't we bud?" Hiccup answered then asked his dragon.
Toothless roared in agreement. I laugh a little. "I used to always come here when I hid Toothless. This is where he crashed and this is where he stayed until I built him that tail." Hiccup said calmly.
"You built that first tail?" I ask him.
"Yeah," I knew he was smart in inventing things. He's always doing that. But I didn't know he could build an entire tail fin, connecting piece and saddle.
"Then Gobber made that one, but of course I made a few tweaks to it."
I smile. He's made so much since the Red Death battle. He lost a leg in that battle and he's okay with it. "You're done so much for the village, Hiccup. We thank you for that." I start. "You don't even have any time for yourself now." I say to him.
He turns to me. "What do you mean?"
"I mean, you're the head of the dragon training academy, you're the best dragon trainer Berk has ever seen,"
He looks away. Avoiding my look. "Yeah, but that's the only reason I'm known in Berk now. I mean, I'm the chief's only son and I'm not even noticed. I'm only noticed now because I brought peace between Dragons and Vikings." He explains standing up slowly.
He slowly and carefully makes his way out of Toothless' drawing, then goes to the spring next to it.
I follow him. "Well that doesn't matter now, that's the past," I say to him. "What matters now, is what you did for Berk. And how proud you made your father."
He nods slowly. "Yeah, that's true."
"Now c'mon. Soon it's gonna' be you drinking the rotten Yak Milk," I say then run to Stormfly. He runs to Toothless then waits a couple of seconds. For a moment I thought he was going to let me win. Until he shot up at full speed. Once again. Typical Hiccup.

Before They Came (Magical Apocalypse)
Our way of life it ended faster than we ever thought possible. It didn't happen with a nuclear war, an asteroid, or a damn ice age. It ended because of another war, far away from us. The Ripples from that war changed the fabric of everything. If only we had known that it was just the beginning. Btw, the beginning chapters are short, but get longer as the story goes on. Thank you for your time and your patience. CLARIFIER: The MC struggles with himself. He has human flaws including IGNORANCE. The MC starts the story out drunk, which has a major impact on the story in the beginning and way beyond. The story takes time to unfold, please be patient. This story does not shy away from the darker elements of life.

Eternity
What is it like to live forever? Is it a blessing? To experience the world changing around you, unaffected by time? For Typhos Dillian, immortality is a curse.

Haunted by ghosts of his long past, Typhos spends his days drinking, having sex, and attending his job as a barkeep. Worst of all, he keeps his powers locked away. He has seen the world change. What once was common, mana, is now a rare trait. Those with mana are heralded as either monsters or heroes, and Typhos wants no part of it. However, when something happens to one of his rare friends, Typhos might be forced to once more activate the terrible power that has been dormant inside of him for years. Note: If you do not like overpowered characters, leave now, he's quite old.

Corpse Crawler
Ludwig Lock wakes up in a hospital bed to find a weeping woman at his side. After some crying, more weaping and confusion, Ludwig discovers that that lady was his ten year old sister, and that he's been in a coma for fifteen years. He also learns that the world he had grown to know was no more since heroes, villains, and super powers inhabit the streets, being regarded as a lot of things withing an endless spectrum. Just when he was about to finally get started with his new life, Ludwig faced a streak of bad luck, the last event of this chain setting him up to die so a vigilante can save himself. After suffering the worst beating of his life and experimenting the incompetence of the law, Ludwig decides to use his own hands to achieve justice. He will face difficult challenges, traumatic situations, and probably horrible stuff to get his life rolling. But at least he's got a friend to help him. Not a normal one though. ---- IMPORTANT: I personally identify powers as a fantastical element, which is why I don't find weird the addition of other elements of the same vein if it stays within the logic of the world. New and old chapters get updated with relative frequency, (new chapter every week, though it may be delayed a day or more to problems or some other reason) and the story is in a draft-like state, meaning it will probably stay the same but there will be changes on the prose or writing. Also, I would apreciate if it is known to me (Respectfully) which points should I improve on.
