Cherreads

Chapter 11 - Hiccup is far to innocent

The waves crash against the hull of the hunter ship as it bounces over wave after wave. I lean against the mast as I watch this enjoying the view of the open ocean with only a couple of islands. My eyes move over the deck of the ship. I sigh seeing the amount of ships in the fleet that float in formation around this main ship. I sigh honestly enjoying the sun beating down on my face and my long coat where my hands sit inside. 

"Hey Lila do you got a sec?" I turn toward the yelling balled man walking toward me. I groan and stretch and crack my back before looking at the Ryker. 

"Yeah what's up Ryker?" I stare at him and see that he looks a bit worried about something which confuses me slightly. 

"You see that ship on the right?" He points at a ship that is rocking a bit to much for it just to be waves. I nod as I continue looking at it. "Well a dragon is going crazy in the cage and nothing is working. you seem to have some way with them so could you go over and help?" 

"Um sure just let me tell Heather then I will be over." I begin to walk away and tell Heather what is happening when I am stopped by Ryker. 

"Wait we have to connect the ships so you can move over and that might take some time." I just smirk at him and walk down toward the bottom of the ship where Heather is training. I walk inside our shared room to see Windhshear sitting in the corner sleeping and Heather in the centre of the room training. I lean on the side of the door as I watch her sweaty body move as she trains in the small tank top that I gave her. I can feel my body become agitated as I continue watching how her muscles contract, expand and stretch as she moves swing her double ended axe. 

As she stops her work out and stand there her chest moving up and down as her exhaustion sets in. Her eyes are drawn away from the wall that she was looking at as she trained toward the door where I lean and freezes upon seeing me. A smirk plasters my face as I see her reaction and I walk forward. I grip her sweaty face in my hand as I kiss her deeply and enjoy the taste of her. I stare into her eyes as I see the blush that spreads over her face. I enjoy the taste of her for a few moments before I realise her from my grip on her face. I enjoy the sight of her blushing and sweaty face as I lick my lips. 

"So um what did you need?" I listen closely to her stuttering voice as I enjoy the sight of her blushing. 

"I am going to another ship in the fleet for a little bit so I will be gone." Her face is shocked for a moment before she lightly whacks my chest. 

"Oh come on you didn't need to tell me that." I sigh and grab her chin before I kiss her forehead. 

"Of course I want you to know where I am and that I am safe." Her blush only deepens before she nods and hugs me. I smile softly and begin to pat her head until she releases me and looks back up at me and smiles before motioning me to go. I laugh slightly as she pushes me out of the room and closes the door behind me. I turn back at the wooden door and smile softly before I walk back to the top deck and see Ryker leading everyone around. I walk up and wave at him.

"Yo Ryker which ship was it again?" He looks over a little confused before pointing the ship that is still shaking. I smirk at him for a moment before I do a running jump and jump over the gap of ocean. I land feet first on the wooden deck shocking all the hunters around for a few moments until they fully realise that it is me. I smirk at them until I turn back to Ryker and smirk and stick my tongue out making him shake his head. I turn around and walk down to the cages and get ready to fix this dragon problem as I wait for the dragon riders to come as I already know they are. As I walk down I see a zippleback in a cage and fighting against the restraints. 

I sigh as I move the hunters with spears away and walk up toward the zippleback I stare at it in the eyes as I wait for it to calm down. I sigh as I see it calm down from the stare that I give it. I sigh and place my hand on each of the heads and calm it down. While I do not agree with what the hunters are doing I can say that I am slightly happy that it will get very taken care of until its death. The rest of the hunters cheer around me happy that I got it to calm down before they move to begin feeding it. I sigh as I turn around ready to leave before I feel the ship shake and people above yelling as dragons begin firing on the ship. 

"Huh the dragon riders are here I guess." I sigh as I walk up toward the top deck ready for what is to come.
