Chapter 4: The Night Fury

While walking through the forest searching for the Night Fury that Hiccup shot down, I asked myself 'Why do I even try?'

All my life, I've been trying to kill a dragon just so I can get some recognition from the people of Berk and my Dad. Who even wishes for me to be gone, maybe I should just do him a favour and end it all. Besides, what's the point of continuing with my life? To get bullied, beaten, almost killed and being a plague to the Vikings of Berk?

Doesn't sound like a future I want to have at all, even Hiccup can make a place for himself in Berk. With that smart head of his am sure it'll get him somewhere in life but, me? I can barely craft a sword, last time I tried I almost cutted of Gobbers second hand, probable the reason why he doesn't like me that much.

And here I am, walking through the forest searching for a Night Fury that Hiccup shot down, life could not get any better.

But, while walking through some bushes I tripped on a rock causing me to tumble down a hill and landing straight onto my face.

''*Groans* Ooh, I'm defiantly going to feel that one tomorrow!'' I groaned in pain but, when I looked up I saw a black dragon laying just ahead of me, tangled in ropes. I crawled back in panic but, I noticed that the dragon couldn't move with the rope keeping it down. Seeing that it was safe enough I stood up and slowly made my way to the dragon.

Putting my hands on my head in shock ''Holy shit, Hiccup did it!'' I said surprised.

For once in my life, something goes right! Once I kill this dragon, I'll split the credit with Hiccup so that we can finally get the respect that we've always desired.

Walking up to the down dragon, I put my foot on it ''For once, something goes right!'' I say proudly. Taken a closer look at the dragon, it appears to be smooth and slimmer than most dragons I see and its whole body is covered in black scales.

''Could this be a Night Fury?" I wondered but, just when I finished that sentence its eyes awaking revealing its bright purple eyes which stared into my soul. The Night Fury probable didn't like the fact that my foot was on it, shrugged its body causing me to fall back.

''It's still alive!?'' I exclaimed in shock.

I thought for sure that the crash would have killed the Night Fury but, it seems I've got to finish the job myself. Pulling out a dagger from my boot, I slowly made my way back to the Night Fury and held my dagger above my head, ready to strike the beast down.

''Alright dragon, I'm going to kill you and prove to everyone that I can be a Viking!'' I said nervously.

But, just before I plunged the dagger into the beast I took one last look into its purple which looked just as scared as I was before it closed its eyes and ready to accept its death. What I saw in the dragon's eyes were pain and loneliness, the same pain I live with every day.

Putting the dagger in my pocket ''*Sighs* I guess I really can't kill a dragon.'' I said realizing the truth.

I slowly start to walk away but, then realize that the dragon would starve to death if I left it.

''This is going to be the dumbest idea I ever had.'' I said to myself.

I walked backed to the Night Fury with my dagger in my hand again and quickly cutted as many ropes that held it down. Once I cutted enough ropes for the Night Fury to get loose from, I quickly got back onto my feet and was prepared to run until suddenly the Night Fury's eyes went wide and it then got back to its paws and pounced onto my chest stopping me from escape.

Once I recovered from the sudden attack, all I saw above me were to bright purple eyes staring into my very own eyes. I knew at that moment I was going to die, if my Dad ever found my body he would probably be happy that I've died, seeing how he wished I wasn't born. This dragon would be doing everyone a favour.

''Just get it over with alright! *Whispers* Just end the suffering.'' I said while leaking tears, ready to accept my end. But, after waiting a couple seconds it never came, I peeked open my eyes to see the dragon looking at me with…...empathy.

''Well, what are you waiting for do it!'' I yelled at the Night Fury but, all it did was rub its head against mine as if it were nuzzling me.

'What the hell is going on?' I asked myself but, even tho it was weird, it was the nicest gesture I've ever felt in my whole life. The Night Fury then pressed its head against mine and it felt like I was getting a major headache.

'Don't worry hatchling, all will be better shortly' A female voice called out, inside my head.

''What the? Who said that!'' I demanded.

'I'm sorry, for what will happen next.' The voice said in a sorry tone.

''What do you mean?'' But, instead of getting a reply the Night Fury suddenly bit into my shoulder, sinking its teeth into my flesh, causing me to scream out in pain. But, instead of tearing me to pieces the Night Fury kept its teeth bedded into my shoulder for about 2 minutes before it finally let me go.

I fell to the ground, clutching my shoulder in pain but, when I looked at my shoulder I saw that the skin around the bite marks where turning into a blackish colour.

''What did you do to me!?'' I questioned the Night Fury but, instead of waiting for a reply I started to run back to the village in hope to be saved. But, the Night Fury knowing where I was heading, flew over my head cutting off my escape route. I then quickly turned around, running deeper into the forest in hopes of escaping the Night Fury but, with ever sharp turn I make I could hear the dragon's wings flapping getting closer and closer.

While running, I looked to my left to see a couple bushes so I quickly made a sharp turn and dove into the bushes, only to come out the other side to fall down a cliff, hitting the ground hard.

Clutching my shoulder ''FFFuuuccckk!'' I yelled in pain.

Once the pain started to fade a bit, I looked around my environment and noticed that I was in some sort of cove. But, before I could see more my shoulder started to burn like crazy, I lifted my hand off my shoulder to get a look at it but, all I saw was black scales forming over my skin and spreading.

''What the fuck is happening!'' I yelled out in shock.

But, the pain only just doubled when I felt my insides getting all mixed up, as if someone was stirring a pot in my stomach.

''Oh god, someone just kill me now!'' I begged.

Suddenly I felt something sprouting on my back and my spine as if a bone was piercing me from the inside. I tried to scream out in pain but, it felt like my jaw was being stretched out of my face increasing the pain I felt by 10.

Everything was happening so fast, there was pain all over my body and when I did look all over my body I saw that I was turning into a…...NIGHT FURY!

Not being able to handle the shocking news and the unbearable pain, I passed out while the transformation continued in my sleep. And I knew that when I woke up, I would be a changed man…...literally.

*This was my first time writing a transformation scene, hopefully it was good enough but, next chapter will have Leo testing out his new body while also getting a visit from the dragon that caused it in the first place. *
