A New Home.

[Horik & Argent]

Curtis Had left home now for about six months. Those months went by quickly to Curtis, But it doesn't matter. Curtis had Started to gather enough Wood and stone to start to make a Big enough home for Slity and Himself, Due to the fact that Curtis and Slity came here from a farther and more different region southward and haven't had a permanent home since.

Curtis had already gotten a Stone Floor base for his new home, He had gotten Slity to melt a special Mix that Curtis had made that would become very sticky after cooled and would harden after afew hours. Curtis was on his own right now because he had let Slity go off and wander by himself, Knowing Slity can take care of himself on this island Curtis was quite ok with it.

For a 13 year old, Making a house wasn't easy without some sort of help. Curtis Dragged a log across the ground towards where the Stone Base of the house was. He kept doing this until he had about four or five logs to start on the walls. He looked up and looked around after hearing a loud enough noise from near by. As always, Curtis was hoping that it wasn't one of the Vikings that were around and about...

(13 Year old building a house, I know seems abit odd but he needs somewhere to live xD)

Puff tromped along through the undergrowth in a not-so-subtle manner. What was he doing on the ground in the first place? He was a dragon. Not just any dragon, really, a Night Fury. Of all the dragons out there, normally he would have been the last to expect to see on the ground. However, he didnt feel right flying without Asther today. She was busy back at the Village, and said she would find him later to go flying. He had accepted this, and set out on his own to possibly have some from.

Nosing his way through the undergrowth, Puff watched as ferns and other plants quivered when they made contact with his black scales. There were no smaller animals out that he would find appetizing, which was smart for them. Puff would lick them up as a tasty snack in a flash. He sniffed various trees as he passed them, taking in their earthy smells and brushing his scales against them as well. Although he was no longer a wild dragon, he had been wild for so long before Asther tamed him that he still retained all of his instincts, which included marking and re-marking territory with his scent. He paused and flared his nostrils as two unfamiliar scents caught the wind. Who were there? That was interesting. Should he alert Asther?

No...it was probably best not to bother her...

Creeping through the undergrowth more steadily now, he kept his head low to the ground, and stuck mostly to the shadows. After a few minutes he found the source of one of the new smells. It was a small human, male by the looks of him. Puff froze, keeping himself in the shadows, and allowing his scales to practically melt into the dark, leaving only his blue-green eyes to shine from the light reflecting on them.

Curtis had put up the last peice of wood for the second part of the walls. He walked over to where he kept all the bad peices of wood and threw afew into a pile just far enough from the partly made home so it would not catch fire or anything. He walked around looking for some stones to use around the fire. That last time Curtis ever made a fire was afew months ago, He was probably on the second island they came too since leaving home. He returned back to the fire pit with about half of the rocks he needed, He ended up going back and picking up afew more rocks before moving back to the pit to place them along the others. Curtis had no idea anything or anyone was around him except himself.

Curtis had taking two flat stone's and put them over the wood before smacking them togather to make a spark, It took him afew tries but he finally got enough sparks to ignite the dry wood pile. Curtis walked back to the small house platform and picked up a newly caught raw fish and walked back to the fire pit. He sharpend a stick with his rapier and stuck the fish on the end of it placing it over the fire to cook.

As The fish began to cook Curtis heard a noise in the surrounding forest close to him. He look around and put the fish down and looked around only to find nothing. He went back and picked up the fish and began to cook it again. "Ugh.. The only thing to eat is Fish. Kinda get's boring" Curtis would be talking to himself.

Puff remained almost motionless in the shadows of the brush, his blue eyes glinting as he tilted his head, angling it towards the sun slightly. This human was curious. Why wasnt he with the others back at the village? His dwelling was so much smaller than Asther's, or any of the other villagers, come to think of it. There was nobody else around him. Puff gave a small grunt of confusion. He didnt figure he would ever fully understand humans. Sure, he lived around them, and his companion was one, but they were still confusing.

Dropping to the ground, Puff lay there for a couple of seconds to decide what to do. Asther would come for him soon enough, he knew, but would she look in the sky first? Probably. If he heard or smelled her, he would take wing. Or better yet....maybe she could find him and meet this younger boy. Maybe then he'd be able to get a better concept of why he was dwelling by himself. Puff's attention was grabbed when the human's voice was heard, murmuring to himself.

Relaxing a bit, Puff decided to stand and creep out into the clearing, closer to the boy. He was to the side, so the boy could probably see him. He stopped, not far off, and sat. Unblinkingly, he looked from the boy to the fire and back again. Who was this young human, and why did he behave so interestingly?

Let's hope your Character dosn't take to long. Ill run out of things to do xD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Curtis looked at his fish waiting for the small fins to start to burn, He decided this is how he knew his fish was good for him. Time passed and the fish was finally cooked to his satisfaction, Curtis started to eat the fish and after he was done he would throw the remains away into a small ditch close to the fire. Curtis let the rest of the flames to burn themselves out, Instead he got up and walked over to some Large and Small sticks. He picked some of them up and walked over to a small clearing behind the partly built living space. He placed a large stick into the ground and grabs some thin rope and took the other smaller peices of wood and attatched them to the larger stick in the ground to make what looked like a Training dummy.

Curtis nodded his head at the dummy and walked over to the fire and picked up his Silver hilted Rapier, He wiped it off abit and walked back towards the Dummy and took it in his hands. Curtis has had Alot of Training with his sword, His father used to teach him back down south before the problems arose, Afterwards he started to train himself and for a Kid that was almost 14 years old he looks like he knows what he's doing. And doing it Right. Curtis would take a swing at the dummy to the right side of it, The sword would go a quarter of the way into the large stick. Curtis Acted as if the Training Dummy was swinging back at him and he dodge it's fake swings and he whiped his sword down on the left arm of the dummy breaking it.

Curtis would swing at the dummy again and would spin half way around facing towards the other small clearing on the other side of the home, The Dummy would fall over broken. Curtis would put his sword away on his waist and looks up noticeing the dragon over in the clearing slightly. "Hmm, A Night fury? Intersting Slity would enjoy to see this" He was talking to himself quietly. Curtis would walk over near the Night fury and would take his sword and place it on the ground, Remembering how Slity reacted when Curtis first saw him. Slity had the same personality as most Protective dragons. Curtis would tilt his head abit at the Dragon "Hello there" Curtis would step abit towards the way his head was tilted to bring his head back up. "Odd to see a Night fury on the ground isn't it"

Changed the color due to not seeing it easy as green.

Puff watched the young human for quite a while from afar before it appeared to finally notice him. How long had it been? Puff found he couldnt quite answer that question, yet he was content not knowing an answer. He was more curious about watching how differently this one behaved than Asther. At long last, it seemed to notice him. Its mouth moved and words were heard, and Puff understood. He, like a number of other types of dragons, were able to understand what humans said, despite the fact they could not communicate back.

The first thing that came to Puffs mind was wondering what a Slity was. The young human had said it as though it were an object or a name, but Puff had never heard of it before. The human moved precisely and slowly, placing his sword on the ground before starting to approach. Puff blinked. This human moved as though it was used to dealing with dragons it was not familiar with. Was he perhaps a Viking as well? But then that brought forth the question again; why was he not in the village with the others, and appearing to make his dwelling here?

Puff gave a small, chirp-like sound as the human moved. He rose from his seated position and stood on all fours, keeping his head level with his body. It was not a threatening stance, more a slightly challenging one. This human was braver than the average young viking, approaching an unfamiliar dragon straight off. He was about to make the same sound again when he heard a familiar voice shout from the trees,

"Puff!"

Puff let out a small, excited sound and craned his head to look over his back. Stepping through the underbrush was Asther, his partner. Jumping forward like a young dragon, he excitedly ran in a circle around Asther as she tried to move forward, despite his nuisance.

"Sorry about him..." Asther said, shrugging a bit as she gestured to her dragon. "I hope he didnt scare you..." she narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the boy. Who was he? She had never seen him before.

[Horik & Argent]

Curtis had watched the Dragon's movement's closely before seeing Asther appear from the brush. He would look over at her "Nah. He didn't scare me, Just Suprised me abit." Curtis would laugh abit at the comment's he made to himself. "I kinda had the feeling that this dragon was with someone, Just wasn't for sure" Curtis would turn around and walk back to pick up his Rapier and walk be to where he was standing placing the Rapier back in the strap on his waist. "Kinda just working on my home over here." Curtis would look back at it and then back towards the Dragon and Girl "It would go alot easier if Slity was here" Curtis would sigh abit laughing afterwards. "Eh, He will be here soon i guess"

Slity would be walking back towards the home, He would walk through the woods quietly before reaching the clearing with the home. He would look around for Curtis and after he found him he would perk his ears up at the other Dragon and Person. Slity would walk back to Curtis and make a small noise as if he was asking a question, Slity would stand to the right of Curtis with his ear's perked at the other two.

Curtis would look at Slity after the noise came from him. "Oh hey Slity." Curtis would scratch behind Slity's ear. "Not sure yet" Curtis would look back to the two "Sorry for not introducing ourselves, Im Curtis and this is Slity" Curtis would nod his head abit "How about yourselves?"

[ABYSS]

Asther rubbed Puff's head as he nudged her, sending her stumbling to the side a few feet. She listened to the young boy's words as he spoke. Judging by his voice and stature, he was definitely younger than her - still a teenager. He picked up the rapier and put it back on his belt. She looked up at the shack he had put together and called it a home. That was odd. Why wasnt he back at the village? Didnt he live there. No... she thought. He mentioned 'Slity' as though it were a name. Was Slity the name of someone staying with him?

Asther didnt know, but she didnt let it bother her that she didnt. Soon, though, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a white shape move from the brush. She hadnt heard it at all, and she silently cursed her poor hearing, clenching her fist slightly on Puff's head. The black dragon turned to look up at her with his large blue eyes curiously. She gave the slightest shake of her head and Puff looked back to the new dragon as it went over to its partner.

So that's Slity? She coudlnt help but draw a similarity in the physique of the white dragon the Puff, but she let it go. She'd think about it later. She watched his lips move as he introduced himself. "My name's Aster...Asther the Man-Eating-Plant the Second." she said, giving her proper title. "And this is Puff. We've been together about seven years now."

[Horik & Argent]

Curtis would think "Hmm, Seven years? Isn't it that the people around here can tame a dragon around 13 years?." Curtis would do the simple math in his head "Seven years from thirteen, So im guessing your twentyish?" Curtis would raise his eyebrow at Asther. "Oh, Also it's nice to meet you Asther." Curtis would smile abit towards Asther and Puff. "I've had Slity for about.. Hmm" Curtis would go over it in his head quickly "About six seven years now." Curtis would laugh abit "Im only fifteen though aswell."

Curtis would think " You said your name was Asther the Man-Eating-Plant the Second, What's up with the Man-Eating-Plant part?" Curtis would raise his eyebrow abit interested in her response. Curtis would rub his hand up and down Slity side. It was an interesting thought, Man eating plant? Curtis still couldn't put his finger on it so he waited for Asther to reply to his question.

Curtis would look at his Half built home "Yea, Should probably tell you why im building a home here." Curtis would shake his head abit "Im from Far south, Not from around Berk or the surrounding Isles." Curtis would look at Asther "Yea, I kinda decided to answer that question before you asked. Been being asked alot lately.

[ABYSS]

Asther watched Curtis' lips move and registered what he was saying in her mind. He was mostly correct in what he was saying. So, he'd had Slity for about as long as she'd had Puff, yet he was only fifteen years old? That was different. Obviously, he wasnt of the village. So he must have found the unidentified white dragon when he was still a child. "The 'Man-Eating-Plant' part is from my inheritance. My mother had the same name, and she named me after herself in hopes I'd be as strong-willed as her. Also brave and ferocious in battle. She was known for her skill with the crossbow, and killed many men twice her size in her time fighting. So..." Asther shrugged. "Its just the way it is." she said with a small smile.

He was from the far South, huh? That was interesting. "If youre from the far South, why are you here?" she asked, a bit defensive of her village. "Why did you leave? And what are your intentions?" she silently wondered if he was planning on attacking the village for any reason in the future. Frankly, she didnt know why anybody would be stupid enough to try that, but then again with some people you never knew.

"And also...when we get windstorms, you might want more than that for your house...try some rocks. Otherwise it will be gone in a blink." she said, giving a small smirk with her words of guidance.

[Horik & Argent]

Curtis would laugh abit "Ah, I see." Curtis would nod his head "Just seems like an odd Title to have." Curtis would look at the ground then back up at Asther, He would raise his eyebrow at Asther as she asked why he was here. "Well, Reasons could be many" Curtis shrug abit. Curtis would go over it in his head "I will tell you why I left, But my intentions of anything with Berk is none. Just thought of living here now." Curtis would nod his head "But, The reason why I left is kinda of a long story. But to shorten it up this is how it goes."

Slity already knew the story hundreds of times, Heck he was part of it. So he decided to walk over to the half built house and would start breathing the "Fire" over the entire part. Because His Fire was more like Ice it would freeze the building and would basically just about stick it to the ground and the pieces to the foundations.

Curtis would this "Me and my Father had a strong dislike of each other, My mother could tell we never would like each other. So you could obviously tell that I spent most of my time with my Mother or my Friends. When I found Slity in the cave on the side of the low mountain one day and brought him home, My Father Highly didn't like this, Though he didn't show it I could tell." Curtis would pause for a second before moving his neck abit and then continuing "That was when I was nine, Now at Fifteen. One night when Slity and I just came back from a fly I went in and assumed everyone was asleep already. I Assumed wrong though.. My father went outside and took his sword and tried to kill Slity, Luckily Slity knew he was up and didn't take to sleeping yet, I was just about to fall asleep before I heard Slity outback. I grabbed my sword ran out and saw my Father lieing on the ground." Curtis would take a seat on the somewhat large rock beside him "Sorry for the long story but there's still abit more" Curtis would laugh abit and would then continue on finishing off his story. "So, A few weeks later I decided to get back at him, He tried to kill Slity. So i Tried to kill him. The night i decided to, I packed up what i needed and left it outside by Slity in case i needed to get away. When I attempted to kill him, He grab his sword and blocked my hit. Apparently that Man sleeps with his sword." Curtis would have kinda of an odd-ed face when he said that. "So I ran downstairs, and my Father chased me, I got on Slity Flew away and about twenty some odd islands later I'm here. On Berk." Curtis would finish his story off.

Curtis would look back at the Frozen House "I think that will do for now Slity" Slity would look up and close his mouth because he was just about to do some more work. But he stopped when Curtis told him to. "Well, That's My Story. I'm sure you have one or two questions in there."

[ABYSS]

Asther blinked in surprise at the long, sudden answer he gave. She watched his lips move and registered all that he was saying. Uhm... she wanted to say aloud, about halfway through his over-long explanation. Thats...all fine and brilliant and everything, but I didnt ask....and dont really care. I only asked what you were doing here on berk.... She sighed a bit as he continued to speak. She could almost sense Puff having a reaction similar to hers, as he shifted slightly and she saw his tail flick quickly back and forth a few times out of the corner of her eyes.

When he finally finished speaking, she let out a puff of air before speaking herself. ".....well....okay......that was more than I asked for or cared about...but.....suit yourself." she crouched on the ground next to Puff. "All I had asked is what you were doing in Berk... I didnt need your life story..." she gave a slightly crooked smile. "But..whatever."

Standing and straightening, she added. "Just dont try anything stupid with the village or you'll have me and other vikings to face. Some of them probably wouldnt even take kindly to you being this close to our village."
