How to Train Your Dragon Page #4

- It threw off my reverse tumble.

- Yeah, we noticed.

No, no, you were great.

That was so "Astrid."

She's right. You have to be

tough on yourselves.

Where did Hiccup go wrong?

- He showed up.

- He didn't get eaten.

He's never where he should be.

Thank you, Astrid.

You need to live and breathe

this stuff. The dragon manual.

Everything we know about

every dragon we know of.

Ah.

No attacks tonight. Study up.

Wait, you mean read?

While we're still alive?

Why read words

when you can just kill the stuff

the words tell you stuff about?

I've read it seven times.

There's this water dragon

that sprays boiling water at your

face. And there's this other one...

Yeah. That sounds great.

- There was a chance I'd read it...

- But now...

You guys read. I'll go kill stuff.

Another one has spines like trees.

- So I guess we'll share?

- Read it.

All mine, then. Wow.

So, OK, I'll see you...

tomorrow.

Night Fury.

Speed unknown. Size unknown.

The unholy offspring

of lightning and death itself.

Never engage this dragon.

Your only chance: Hide and pray

it does not find you.

I can almost smell them.

They're close.

Steady.

Take us in.

Hard to port. For Helheim's Gate.

Hard to port!

Steady!

Hey, you know, I just happened to notice

the book had nothing on Night Furies.

Is there another book, or a sequel?

Maybe a Night Fury pamphlet?

Focus, Hiccup!

You're not even trying!

Today it's all about attack!

Nadders are quick and light

on their feet.

Your job is to be quicker and lighter!

I'm really beginning to question

your teaching methods!

Look for its blind spot!

Every dragon has one.

Find it, hide in it and strike!

Do you ever bathe?

If you don't like it, then

just get your own blind spot.

How about I give you one?

Blind spot, yes.

Deaf spot, not so much.

Hey, so, how would one sneak up

on a Night Fury?

No one's ever met one and lived

to tell the tale. Get in there!
