The Sailor and the Queen, Chapter 2, Draft 1

¨WE MUST PREPARE THE SHIP¨ Captain Clown Faced Connor barked. Captain Clown Faced Connor was the Captain of the most feared Pirate ship in the whole of the pacific ocean, The Jump Scare. As for his crew, they're the scariest pirates out there. If you go onto the Jump scare the captain must decide if you are worthy of having a clown face tattooed onto your face, that way you can never leave the crew. Only the Captain wears a mask and so when he talks the mouth doesn't move.  

The sails went down showing the scary Clown face. The whole ship was alight with excitement, evan the parrot was squawking about. As the ¨Jump Scare¨ left the cave of despair getting some more people for his crew was the only thing on Clown Faced Connors mind.

¨FIRE THE CANNONS, FIRST MATE FINN!¨ Clown Faced Connor yelled as they passed Basileia aroha ¨I want to get my final revenge on Queen Adrian¨ he whispered. The ship stared into Haurangi the island of insane, the first place the Captain would look for some new blood. ¨STAY WITH THE SHIP CREW! RIPPED FACE RODGER YOU’RE IN CHARGE! FIRST MATE FINN YOU’RE WITH ME! ¨ Clown Faced Connor yelled. As him and Finn walked into the Haurangi pub Finn got stuck in the doorway as his wooden leg got jammed in a loose plank.

¨M ok Capen¨ He saw unskewing his leg and pulling it out.

¨PEOPLE OF HAURANGI! I HAVE COME FOR A CREW IF YOU ARE WANTING TO BE A PART OF MY CREW COME OUT TO THE DOCK TO MEET ME!¨ Clown Faced Connor yelled over the commotion of the pub. No one dared talk but one person called out LOSER! And the Captain pulled out his gun and with one bullet he was dead.

Captain Clown Faced Connor was walking up the line of people who wanted to be pirates that morning,

¨Who is this?¨ He asked

¨This be Ian¨ First Mate Finn said

¨Thats no good, paint him a clown face and he will be called Scar Face Scott¨ The Captain said

¨Who is this?¨ The Captain asked

¨This be Dale¨ First Mate Finn said

¨No good, call him Doug face Dale¨ The Captain said.

When they got to the end of the line there was a person with a pirate hat, brown pants, white top and a black vest with brown boots. The person lifted there head and under the brim was bright blue eyes.

¨AHH!¨ The captain said jumping away from her

¨Capen?¨ Finn asked

¨Just a-a-a girl¨ The captain stuttered

¨My name is Aerwyna, I have come to explore the sea and since you and your petty crew happen to be the only ship looking for a crew on this god forsaken island I have to take my chances¨ Aerwyna said

¨Call my crew petty?¨ Connor said

¨I did!¨ She said back

¨She will be our Ship boy or our ship girl!¨ Connor said ¨Not worthy of the clown faced mark¨.

As they loaded the new crew onto the ship First Mate Finn pulled the Captain back.

¨Yer sure about havn a girl on board, its terrible bad luck¨ He said

¨Yes, but it is worse luck not to¨ Connor said laughing at his own humor that was not funny

As the ship left the dock Aerwyna was standing on the bow of the ship, she took her hat off and her half-way-down-her-back Auburn hair came tumbling out of her hat. She had a smile on her face, it was like she had fireflies inside her face and they were lighting up even her bright blue eyes were alight. She was happy to be out of Haurangi and into the great beyond, even though she was on some creepy clown ship it was better to be on the sea than wait another decade for a ship to come and take her away.

¨SHIP GIRL! CLEAN THE DECK! NOW!¨ Captain Clown Faced Connor barked at her

¨Yes Captain!¨ She said back and got to work.

The Sailor and the Queen, Chapter 1, Draft 1

¨Good Morning Basileia aroha!¨ Queen Amanda said opening the gates and walking out, she had long wavy Auburn hair with bright green eyes, she wore a short sleeved red dress with black polka dots and a green trim and green flats.

¨Good Morning your Highness!¨ A Maid said back waving

but as the gates to the rest of the kingdom opened the Queen was astounded by what she saw, her kingdom all blown apart!

¨What happened here?¨ She asked

¨Your Highness, P-P-Pirates!¨ A villager stuttered to her

¨Pirates?¨

¨Yes your Majesty, Pirates¨ Another Villager said

¨Start building up the houses, everyone follow me you can stay in the castle well your houses are being built¨ She said and the villagers started clapping.

¨Thank you so much!¨ She said but as she looked around she saw that in the midst of all of this joy there was a spot of sadness, a woman crying while sitting on the stone wall.

¨My dear, Why are you crying?¨ she asked her sitting next to the woman

¨My-My daughter, my Queen. It is her first birthday and-and the building co-collapsed on top of her¨ The woman said crying more tears than humanly possible.

¨My dear woman, what is your name?¨ The kind queen said putting an arm around her shoulders

¨Abigail , My Queen¨ She said

¨and what was your daughter's name?¨ the Queen asked her

¨T-Tesha, My Queen¨ Abigail said

¨Abigail, your name means happy and your daughters name means survivor. She will be remembered¨ The Queen said.

¨Everyone form a line and we will walk into the palace¨ The Queen said

¨Maddie! Get any clothes you can find to put on these poor people. Joy, Get the cook to cook up a great feast for tonight, tell him it is to feed 200. Casey, get all of the blankets and pillows you can find. Eeva, go to Sir Michaels and tell him to secure the perimeter.¨ Queen Amanda ordered as she marched into the place. The people of the town were shivering even though it was warm summer’s day not of cold though of fear. When they walked into the great hall they saw at least 15 maids lining the great hall with pillows and blankets except for the center it was covered in blankets and massive pillows.

That night the feast was certainly to feed 200, it was massive and everyone was starving they ate so much! The Queen was sitting at the head of the table when suddenly a guard carrying the royal crest (an eagle) on his chest and shield walked up to the table.

¨Your Highness the town has been sukerd and the rest of the fires have been put out¨ Sir Michaels said to her

¨Thank you Sir Michaels, see if you can salvage anything from the houses¨ Queen Amanda said to him.

That night after she had made sure that her people were comfy in the great hall she went to her room to take a breather.

¨Oh Mother, I try so hard but how did I miss the pirate attack?¨ The young queen said talking to the portrait of a queen she has in her room. She looked exactly like her mother, they could have been twins except her mother had blue eyes she had green like her father's. She started taking her jewelry off and accidentally knocked over a bottle of perfume

¨Oh!¨ She said bending down to pick it up, as she did she saw a note that had obviously fallen off the bottom of the bottle it read;

My Dearest Amanda,

If this note has fallen off then I know that there has been another pirate attack. Under the perfume bottle there is a lever, in that secret box there is a map, the map is of where I hid the pirates. I didn’t kill them, I couldn't. Please save our people.

Lots of love, Your Mother Adrian.

She looked inside the box and saw the map.

¨I love you Mum, Thank you for the map, now I have a lead.¨ She said tightening her grip on the map.

Green Oak School Of Magic, Chapter 2, Draft 2.

Everyone was looking at everyone's work and complimenting each other,

“Hey Lilly, you have photos of your Mum and your Sister” Prudence said walking over and picking the one of my sister up. “How did they die again?” She asked

“Yeh, how come I haven't heard this story?” Grace asked. Everyone was looking at me and I syd I had to tell it now,

“We were all having a play date at Prudence's when my Mum was called home by my older sister, Olivia. We all just kept on playing. At about one o'clock in the afternoon your mums decided to take you home but my Mum still hadn't come back to pick me up so I just went down for a nap in Prudence's and room. Then after we woke up Sandra was getting really worried. We drove down to my house and found that there were police cars all around it, Sandra told us that she was going to ask what was wrong. By this time I was screaming because I wanted to know where they were. Sandra came back about ten minutes later saying that the policeman wanted to talk to me, though there was probably nothing he could get out of me. So Prudence came with us because I wouldn't talk to him if Pru stayed in the car. When I saw him I said “I want Livi and Mummy” but he said to me “what is your name?” I told him my name then he talked to Sandra some more and then she told him “leave it to me” then she got us to get back in the car but I started crying again, I wanted to see Mum and Livi. Sandra told me that I was having a sleepover at Prudence's. We went to bed and Sandra was calling all of your Mums telling them about what happened. I didn't sleep very well but that morning Sandra told me what happened. The police didn't know how it happened but my Mum and Sister's bodies were found at the front door by our part time housekeeper, Helen. They were gassed out. I wouldn't talk to anyone for the next few weeks, it was all over the news and your parents and you were basically living at Prus house but I didn't want to play. Then there was the funeral, I just remember it being sad and cold. I don't know if you guys remember but you all came with your Mums and Dads. After the coffins drove away in the car I lost it. I remember you guys and your parents gave me lots of hugs and told me that they would sort out something for me. I got all my things back after it was all de-gassed and lived at Prudence's for the next six months but Sandra couldn't look after me, Prudence and Isabella (Prus older sister) so one day the foster home car picked me up and I became a foster child, moving from home to home. Still seeing you guys regularly since we went to the same kindergarten and then school. But I was never 100% happy. Then that day when I had just been moved to a new girls home and my house lady gave me the letter. I was excited I phoned you guys straight away and found out that you all got in. Then I was given a spending allowance for my room. The day before I left Brook came up to me and said thing to annoy me and I made a snowstorm right there. And now I'm here” I said and they all stared at me.

“I knew peces but never the whole story, how old were we?” Grace asked

“Two or three”

“How do you know the whole story?” Laura asked

“People have told me bits and pieces and I just kinda figured it out”

“How come you can talk about it?” Pru asked

“Well I guess it happened ten years ago and I am just not saddened by it anymore. Also I spent so much time crying over it that I just can't anymore” only Bella was silent

“Bells? You gonna say something?” Lulu asked her

“I never knew, I knew that you were a foster child and that you weren't happy at your foster homes. But wow” she said

“Ok, well now that the sap story is over I'm thinking… Wait, Grace, do you have the clock?” I asked

“Yeah, we just need to assemble it” she said pulling a box with the picture of the white clock with black numbers and hands. We all helped getting the right time on it and putting it above the door, it was six o'clock.

“I'm starving, who wants din-” Bella said but got cut off by an announcement

“Students, dinner in the multipurpose room” Headmistress Clapham said over the speaker

“Huh, it's like she read your mind” Laura said opening the door and clapping so that the stairs would appear. We started walking down and following everyone else to the multipurpose room where there was a table and chairs set for sixteen, we sat down next to each other.

Headmistress Clapham sat at the end of the table and started to talk.

“Welcome, boys and girls, fairies and all, to the last dinner of the summer holidays! I hope that you have noticed the new five students this year?” She said gesturing to us “Now, before we eat I want to say that this year you are not allowed to leave the school grounds without a fairy garden.” there was an outbreak of groning from the older students.

“I am sorry but it is safer for you and since the Blue oak spies are walking around, we don't need anymore kidnappings. I suppose you're all hungry.” She said and sat down just a lots of covered plates oak tree designs on the side of the covers, being carried by different colored glowing lights. After they were set on the table I noticed how one of the lights got stuck under the edge of the plate. Looking closer I realized that they wert lights they were fairies. I helped her out and she gave me a quick fluttery kiss on the cheek. It made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. Then we dug in to dinner.

After a delish meal we had to all go back to our blue-corns and get some rest. I snuggled under my covers that night and thought that all was right with the world.

How to train your dragon fan-fic. Chapter 2: The times I couldn't sleep, Draft 2

“Fishlegs, your late!” a boy with brown hair said

“Sorry, I was out of patrol and I found a boat on the beach and I found a person inside”

“Fishlegs, you show me?”  I asked

“Sorry. Ok  everyone, this is Freya”

“Hi” I said waving

“Freya, this is Hiccup and his night fury, Toothless” Fishlegs said. I waved at Hiccup and started to walk up to Toothless when he growled at me as well.

“Whats up bud?” Hiccup asked him

“Umm and Astrid with her Deadly nadder, Stormfly” I waved but Stormfly shot some spines at me

“Woh, woh, easy girl” Astrid said to her. I didn't wait around to meet the other three I ran out the door and sat on the ground outside.

I heard footsteps and looked up.

“It's ok Freya, tomorowo-“ Fishlegs said

“Fishlegs, me don't think the dragons like me.”

“ok, well tonight I found you a place to sleep”

“were?”

“my house, I can ask my parents”

“Me thank you!”.

“you can come in and watch if you want.” Fishlegs said

“me don't  want to stress out  dragons”

“don't worry, well keep an eye on them”. We stood up and walked into the arena and Hiccup came over

“did you find anything?” Fishlegs asked him

“No and I did the dragon root test yesterday” Hiccup said

The rest of the day I spent watching the academy train and walking around berk. That night I was just hanging around the academy waiting for Fishlegs to come back from island portrole to get to his house for sleep.

“what is up with you?” Astrid asked me

“why you ask that?”

“because, people don't just show up on berk and just happen to have no parents, it just doesn't happen. Then every dragon is scared of you!”

“Astrid, if me was going to tell you truth about me parents me would have trust you. And  most those things are the same. Me have no idea why  dragons don't like me, me did just happen to show up on berk ok?” I said getting really annoyed at her. Then a black haired, annoying boy called Snotlout walked in.

“Ladies, I know that you are fighting over the Snotman but please, my fangirl base is very big”  He said and I tripped him over then Astrid pushed him to the ground with her little finger.

“Job good” I said to her

“That wasn't bad yourself” she said walking away.

That night I couldn't sleep I got up for a walk then I had an idea. I got up and walked around the back of the village and into Gobber's shop. I got a piece of metal and started making something that I had never tried. After I had made my top in the toothery (I swear Gobber is dead, he didn't hear me) I ran to the store house and got paint (pink and Purple), leather and red fabric. After that I ran all the way back to the academy and set out everything on the floor but just as I was about to start a chill is set in the air and it started to snow. I picked up everything and ran to the closest inside, a door on the side of the academy. When I opened it I saw a dark staircase, my curiosity getting the better of me. I walked down it until I found another door. I opened it and looked inside, it was a room. There was a bed in the corner, a fireplace and a pot. A work space was by the wall and an Idea started forming in my head.

I got a blanket and some paper and a pencil. Then I dusted off everything and it was almost morning. I quickly changed into my new clothes, a red top under a metal short top with jagged edges. My skirt was brown but I used the pink and purple paint to add design. My arm guards were brown and red. I used my dagger and cut my hair so it was hanging just below my shoulders, my long brown mane fell to the ground and I tied it up in a side plait to hide my dragon hunter tattoo on my neck. Suddenly I heard a big bang and ran up the stairs and out the door. I saw everyone with their dragons and realized that it was just people landing.

“Hi!” I said walking out and seeing a thin layer of snow on the ground

“Hey Freya, what were you doing down in the dragon keeper's room?” Fishlegs asked me

“me was here last night then it started snow I run there,  I live there. You guys weren't using it”

“Yeah, we don't use it anymore. How did you know that?” Hiccup asked me

“Me didn't sleep last night me was cleaning” I said glaring at him

“fair point”

¨What you doing today?¨ I asked strapping my quiver on my back then putting my bow on my back as well. Suddenly Toothless walked up to me sniffed me and then nuzzled my arm with his head.

¨Ummm hi?” I said to him petting his head. Next thing I know all of the dragons were walking up and sniffing me. ¨help?¨ I asked.

¨why do the dragons like you now?¨ Hiccup asked

¨no sure, you tell me. Wait, Me know, me wearing nadder hide. Duh Fariana!¨ I said slapping my hand on my head.

¨Yeah, that sorta makes sense” Fishlegs said.

Over that day I got to help them with their drill and I got a few lessons in old norse but that night I still couldn't sleep. I ended up  setting up the targets and practising with my bow and arrow. But I could never seem to hit anything. I sat down on the snowy ground for a second but when I opened my eyes it was daylight and I was lying on the ground. I was mad at myself but quickly stood up and brushed myself off. Picking up my arrows I shoved them back in my quiver and drew back an arrow but I still couldn't hit the targets, I started gathering up my arrows when Astrid landed in the arena. I gave her a nod and she nodded back. I drew back another arrow desperate to hit the target, just because Astrid was in the arena. I managed to hit the wall behind the target. I tried again but this time I only hit the ground.

¨Need any help?¨ she asked

¨No, i’m fine”

¨are you sure?¨ she asked then picked up the arrows on the ground and on the wall.

¨I just can't hit target¨  I said trying again

¨well maybe you should pull back and don't hit so fast just make sure your looking at exactly where you want it to hit then try again¨ she said passing me the arrow.

I pulled back and took a deep breath steared at the middle of the target and shot, it hit the edge of the target.

¨I hit it!¨ I shouted extra excited

¨Good now again” She said and we continued shooting until the others arrived.

¨Thanks.¨ I said to her and gave her a smile

¨that wasn't...horrible¨ she said pulling herself up on Stormfly. I walked over and gave Stormfly a pat. She gave me a small smile.

How to train your dragon fan-fic! Chapter 1: My new begining Draft 2

“Quick, grab that Nadder!” I heard my Dad say. Yep, this was my life. My parents are dragon hunter, always have been, always will be. Everyday the same thing, Make the traps, set up the traps, trap the dragons, sell the dragons. My name? Freya Grimmborne the second! I know, it is crazy that my Dad is Vego Grimmborne and my Mum is Freya Grimmborne.

I was a tall sixteen year old with long brown hair that was down to my hips by the time I was ten. I braided it in two down my back. I had bright blue eyes and I wore a leather top and my skirt was pink and purple nadder hide. I wore black leg wraps with tall sheep fluff boots.

I hated dragon hunting. I knew that my Uncle Riker was going to take over trapping the dragons and my Dad,Mum and I were going to move to an island where dad would be the owner of the business. So that night I packed up the little of what I had and got a life boat. Then I sailed away. A great storm hit me that night and I couldn't keep my boat going. Then “BANG” a pole hit me and I was out.

Next thing I know I am on a golden sandy beach being shaken awake by a boy who was about my age.

“AHHH!” I screamed but my throat was so dry it was hard. “ma'an?” I croaked

“Sorry, I don't understand” the boy said.

“Water?” I asked switching to Old Norse

“Here” he said handing me a jug of water and I drank the whole thing.

“shukraan.” I said looking under my boat for my bow and quiver. I found them and put the quiver on my back then collecting arrows I put them in. I put my bow on my back, checked my pouch on my hips for my dagger and I climbed out.

“Im Fishlegs” he said

“Fariana, 'ayn 'ana” I asked

“Can you speak old norse?” he asked

“me speak norse no good” I said

“It's ok, I can teach you. What's your name? ” he asked

“Me told you, Fariana” I awserd

“Is it a word in old norse?”

“Me think, Freya” I answered then I noticed a purple and brown Gronkle “DRAGON!” I yelled pulling back and arrow  

“FREYA, STOP!” he yelled jumping in between me and the Gronkle “that's Meatlug, I ride him” he said gesturing to a saddle on Meatlug’s back.

“Ride him?” I asked walking up to him to say hi but he jumped out at me and growled at me.

“I don't understand, Meatlug loves everyone”

“We walk up?” I asked  

“Good idea”.

“So why are you shipwrecked”

“Me run away” I said shrugging

“Ran away, why?”

“Me parents died” I said lying

“Sorry”. We walked up to a big round arena with a chain roof. “And here is our dragon training academy”.

How to train your dragon fan-fic. Chapter 2: The times I couldn't sleep.

“Fishlegs, your late!” a boy with brown hair said

“Sorry, I was out of patrol and I found a boat on the beach and I found a person inside”

“Fishlegs, you gonna introduce me?”  I asked

“Sorry. Ok  everyone, this is Freya”

“Hi” I said waving

“Freya, this is Hiccup and his night fury, Toothless” Fishlegs said. I waved at Hiccup and started to walk up to Toothless when he growled at me as well.

“Whats up bud?” Hiccup asked him

“Umm and Astrid with her Deadly nadder, Stormfly” I waved but Stormfly shot some spines at me

“Woh, woh, easy girl” Astrid said to her. I didn't wait around to meet the other three I ran out the door and sat on the ground outside.

I heard footsteps and looked up.

“It's ok Freya, tomorowo-“ Fishlegs said

“Fishlegs, I don't think the dragons like me. That's just me putting two and two together”

“ok, well tonight I found you a place to sleep”

“were?”

“my house, I can ask my parents”

“ok, thank you!”.

“you can come in and watch if you want.” Fishlegs said

“I don't really want to stress out the dragons”

“don't worry, well keep an eye on them”. We stood up and walked into the arena and Hiccup came over

“did you find anything?” Fishlegs asked him

“No and I did the dragon root test yesterday” Hiccup said

The rest of the day I spent watching the academy train and walking around berk. That night I was just hanging around the academy waiting for Fishlegs to come back from island portrole to get to his house for sleep.

“what is up with you?” Astrid asked me

“why did you ask that?”

“because, people don't just show up on berk and just happen to have no parents, it just doesn't happen. Then every dragon is scared of you!”

“Astrid, first if I were going to tell you the truth about my parents I would have to trust you. And second, most of those things are coincidences. I have no idea why the dragons don't like me and I did just happen to show up on berk ok?” I said getting really annoyed at her. Then a black haired, annoying boy called Snotlout walked in.

“Ladies, I know that you are fighting over the Snotman but please, my fangirl base is very big”  He said and I tripped him over then Astrid pushed him to the ground with her little finger.

“nice job” I said to her

“That wasn't bad yourself” she said walking away.

That night I couldn't sleep I got up for a walk then I had an idea. I got up and walked around the back of the village and into Gobber's shop.

“Well, I was here last night and then it started to snow so I just ran in there and now I live there. Figured you guys weren't using it”

“Yeah, we don't use it anymore. How did you know that?” Hiccup asked me

“I didn't sleep last night because I was cleaning” I said glaring at him

“fair point, but dont you want to find your family?¨ Hiccup asked me
¨No, not really¨
¨and why is that?¨
¨because they died and I got left with my psycho Uncle¨ I said absent mindedly rubbing my tattoo.

¨So what are you guys doing today?¨ I asked strapping my quiver on my back then putting my bow on my back as well. Suddenly Toothless walked up to me sniffed me and then nuzzled my arm with his head.

¨Ummm hi?” I said to him petting his head. Next thing I know all of the dragons were walking up and sniffing me. ¨Guys?¨ I asked.

¨why do the dragons like you now?¨ Hiccup asked

¨not sure, you're telling me. Wait I know, I was wearing nadder hide. Duh Freya!¨ I said slapping my hand on my head.
