Magni would never understand a place such as Berk. He had been there for a few months now, and things had been quiet to chaotic to suddenly incredibly noisy and irritating with the humans seeming to be celebrating, apparently rejoicing at the return of the human chief and the alpha of this area. Of course, it happened to be the human and Night fury partners he had encountered on the Edge who seemed popular, powerful icons in this village and sometimes he couldn't help finding it an insult at how close humans and dragons seemed to be here.
They had become glorified, pampered pets! It made Magni curl his lip in disgust, currently perched on a high rise near the village, watching the humans and tamed dragons. Some of the dragons obviously didn't seem to trust him, not with his intense gaze, glares, and tense body posture when some occasionally passed. He merely shook his head and snorted softly, "This is an insult to our kind. We're the apex predators of the food chain not these little non-scaled, fleshy two leggers." He hissed under his breathe, disdain clear in his tone.
Growling in his throat, Magni finally crawled from his perch to begin exploring the village, having to duck under decorations or side stepping smaller creatures due to his enormous size. Well, he tried to at least. He had turned a corner to head down another block of the village when he found himself running smack into some streamers, snarling in surprise and annoyance as he tried to tear them from his scarred, and one broken, horns.

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon Cloudjumper was done up for the festival, streamers attached to the ends of his wings by Valka herself so that he could still fly with thhem, the tassle like objects fluttering out behind him, matching the blue and red paint covering his body also done by his rider and a few children of the villiage. Sitting still hadn't been too fun, but seeing the happy faces of all the villiage's cubs made it worth it, Human or not they were as important to him as every other human and dragon on Berk. He was walking around to let the paint dry, and to enjoy the feeling of the streamers dance off him in the winds. He was surpised to see another storm cutter playing with streamers in a much less ... dignified manner. What caught his attention was the fact this dragon was a titan wing, normally hostile and dangerous more so than a normal storm cutter, or really any dragon. His kind could be grumpy but a titan wing? And just what was he doing on Berk tangled in the decorations?
He catiously approached, large head tilted almost at a ninty degree angle as he peered at the other, "I don't think that's how the decorations are supposed to look." He said with a small smile, not bother to ask if the other needed help before he used his bat like claws at the end of one wing to cut him free. "You should be careful, the villiage has been working all day on these decorations, though I assume you're not here for the celebration?" |

"Really? I didn't notice." Magni hissed, shaking his head and clawing at the streamers, but in his frustrated state kept missing the right areas to cut them free properly. He didn't even face Cloudjumper right away, seething with rage at how ridiculous he probably looked and cursing inwardly at these humans and their strange ways of celebrating. Quite frankly he just wanted to torch the place and be done with everything. Though, he finally paused when he felt the streamers being cut, falling away with the wind allowing him to itch his face and horns from where they had been stuck and kept hitting every time.
With those gone, Magni finally turned to face Cloudjumper, seeing who had helped him and was a little surprised by the presence of another Stormcutter, this one a normal broadwing and baring a single visible scar on his horns from what he could see. But, he was also no doubt of those tamed dragons considering the streamers on his wing claws and the paint he was covered in. "I do not understand dragons such as yourself. You let these humans use you and our brethren, display us like tamed trophies, none of that bothers you?" Magni asked, gesturing to the pain and streamers currently on his form.
But Magni lifted a claw of where one streamer had caught on it, snorting softly before blowing a small flame to burn it up. "But no, celebrating is hardly my reason being here. I decided to stick around, see what all this union of dragons and humans was about since that chief cub and his Night Fury found me. Suppose you could say I'm here until I figure out where to go next. 'Or what I should do with this place.' Magni thought towards the end, knowing full well he wouldn't mind torching the place to the very ground.

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon Cloudjumper rolled his eyes at this titan wing version of himself, normal closed mind for this kind of dragon, or any titan dragon anyway. "They use us as much as we use our selves, or as much as they use themselves. It's like a pack. We all have a use, that doesn't mean we are used." He pointed out and offered this dragon a smile, "I am glad you aren't attacking us. It would be a shame to have to fight off someone who could easily become a friend, especially after our alpha and chief are only just back from their ... trip, I guess you could call it." He tiled his head the other way, eyeing the dragon curiously, not sizing him up but rather admiring him. He hadn't seen another storm-cutter in a long time, and a titan wing was even more so rare.
"Not to be rude, but you can't expect to fully understand us if you don't put yourself with our wings, now can you? Besides, them living in peace with us and loving us is much better than what it was before... Oh, how rude of me." His smile beamed brighter as his tail flicked and he dipped his head, "My name is Cloudjumper, though you may call me Cloud." |

Magni couldn't help tilting his head, baffled by this Stormcutter's, among others, argument that these humans were their friends, equals in fact. Perhaps it was better than what things use to be? How could they think these things would remain as they were? "This is not a pack, it is a temporary alliance that will not last. Two species who have been at war for generations do not simply befriend one another over a short amount of time." Magni snorted, shaking his large head in disbelief at what he was hearing. "You may all play a part, but in the end you cannot stop what nature intended. Humans are not [I[friends [/I], they are food, our competitors. Surely not all of you have forgotten that.[/b]"[/p]
His breathe was probably wasted, and he could only growl dismissively, "I suppose neither of us will understand the other little one. Humans will forever be an enemy in my eyes, nothing they've done has ever been kind." He looked as some of the younger children passed, giggling and playing. "I heard kind words once, gestures to be friends when I first crossed humans as a young adolescent. I was naive to believe strangers such as humans were there to be friends." He growled bitterly, making it clear he likely would never allow a human to get close to him as Valka had done with Cloudjumper.
"I am Magni, suppose it's nice to meet you Cloudjumper. The only saving grace right now is meeting you, I have not seen another stormcutter in many years." Magni said gruffly, willing to admit he felt some joy in seeing someone of his own kind. Smaller, normal looking of course, but nevertheless it brought some hope that other Stormcutters may be out there and well, Cloudjumper was a rather attractive looking one as well. Compared to Magni, he seemed on the completely opposite spectrum in just about every way.

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon Cloudjumper hummed in thought of the dragon's words, taking in what he said and nodding, "I know where you're coming from, and I agree many, most humans are cruel and vile, they hurt us and we hurt them, but this villiage and a few others really have changed." He moved a clawed paw to gently touch the colored paint on his side, as to not wipe it off, "The human cubs here will grow up seeing that they don't have o fear us, nor do we have to be angry with them. Trust me, I'm not just a pet to any human. If a dangerous one was here I'd crush his head between my jaw without a second thought." He crooned and stood up, shaking his body as if he were wet, steramers rustling.
"I'm afraid I have only seen two others that I can remember, neither were with riders, and I think I remember where one is, though she isn't all that friendly." He admitted with a sigh, snorting a small burst of smoke through his nose. one of the children who had been previously playing with a ball found his way over to the two stormcutters with awe filled eyes.
Seeing the possible danger in the situation Cloudjumper blocked the path to the other stormcutter with his tail, playfully batting the boy with his wing, who in turn laughed and hugged the dragon's tail. Cloudjumper couldn't help but smile down at the man cub. It was almost like he had children of his own, the villiage being like this. He turned less happy eyes on Magni, pittying him that he didn't understand this emotion towards humans. It was truely a beautiful thing.
"Why don't we go for a flight?" He suggested as he nudged the human back towards his friends, and waved in the guesture humans used to say goodbye, the human waving back with it's hand, and he again looked back to the other Stormcutter, "A villiage isn't really the place for a dragon who doesn't enjoy humans. Besides, I think you've been caught in enough streamers for the day~" |

"I wish I could share such enthusiasm Cloudjumper, but it'll take a long time and more than your words to change my mind about humans." Magni stated firmly, showing no signs of changing his mind any time soon regardless of what his fellow Stormcutter said. Perhaps if they had crossed paths much earlier in life things would have been different, maybe he could still have shown a more curious, playful side Cloudjumper showed now. But that had long since been beaten out of him, mostly from fighting for survival and trying to remain alive at all. At a cost of course.
He did briefly look curious towards Cloudjumper, wondering just where these other Stormcutters may be, making a note mentally to see into this himself someday, although that would not be this day. "Perhaps me and her would get along much more than you and I." Magni said in a pointed tone, making it quite clear to Cloudjumper they may never truly see eye to eye, or really get along as he seemed to be hoping. Potential friends was off the table for the likes of Magni who would rather slaughter humans, not become their companions and friends, not with the off chance they would tame him into something for simply being a tool.
Once more his attention was drawn from the likes the smaller Stormcutter, eyeing the young human cub that strayed away from his little group. A low rumbling growl of warning could be heard in his throat, ready to give a warning snap towards the human if necessary. Luckily, Cloudjumper was there to avoid a potentially disastrous encounter happening and the village turning on him immediately before he could truly make his move. Admittedly, it was difficult for him to keep restrained, all of his instincts telling him to jump for the kill but he huffed and turned his back towards the two, letting Cloudjumper handle the cub while staring at the older Vikings as they seemed to be working on the festival or celebrating.
Hearing Cloudjumper's words though, it was enough to make Magni visibly relieved, "Best idea I've heard all day." He muttered before spreading his four wings, tearing through some decorations carelessly before taking flight, making no move to apologize in some way, simply taking flight and ignoring the angry yells from the villagers below. He soared over the village for a moment, savoring the temptations of doing his intended task then and there as he gave an intense, disgusted look towards the village for a moment before beginning to fly off towards the sea stacks in the distance, figuring the other Stormcutter would have no problem keeping up.

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon CloudJumper hadn't made a threatening move towards the other dragon as he seemed threatened by the appearance of the child, and to the dragon's ideals he had only one more responce, "No need to change your mind, I just wouldn't want to have to fight against you if you tried to harm my people." Was his passive aggressive tone, a smug smile appearing on his snout as he took off after he other dragon, not caring about the streamers, it would be better than him trying to burn down he villiage.
The stormcutter spiraled up, four wings exploding behind him, streamers fluttering along with his motions, it felt odd but didn't affect his flying thankfully. He kept up with relative ease, though rather than gliding peacefully he dove, spiraling as he would on runs with Valka, four wings creating an arrow shaped dome around him before he opened his wings again, falling into a glide finally beside the other, taking in a relaxed and deep inhale of the ocean around them, |

'If only you knew.' Magni thought to himself, but his tense form gradually grew more relaxed with being far from the village and away from the very creatures he hated with passion. Out here, he actually felt less cramped, less likely that something unexpected could happen in Berk or the humans could turn their attentions on him instead of the festival. He too couldn't help taking a deep, relaxing breathe, the salty air of the ocean seeming to empower him and further relax him, lazily flapping his wings, initially ignoring Cloudjumper's little stunt.
Though, with now being more in the open, a smirk formed on his face as he turned his head to peer at Cloudjumper, "Nice little stunt, but I've seen baby dragons fly with more finesse." He taunted playfully, his personality seeming to change drastically. Throwing his wings out to their fullest, he allowed the salty sea air catch them and slowing his pace before allowing his wings to press against his body to go into a steep dive, twisting downwards towards the ocean head first. He waited as the ocean got closer and closer, before allowing himself to dive into the waters, briefly disappearing beneath the surface.
But, he was down for but a few seconds before shooting upwards, twirling and leaving a trail of water behind that was cast in a helix formation and climbing upwards in preparation to do further tricks. Tags: Valka Haddock

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon The young stormcutter laughed at the sight, shaking his head. He hadn't expected this dragon to have this type of personality, he only dwelled on what he may have personally been through to dislike humans, though the thought didn't last long as he noticed the dragon climbing into the air. CloudJumper huffed with a growing smile, wings flapping furiously before he dove, shooting past his fellow storm-cutter, purposely almost baraling into him before he continued onwards, landing atop one of the rocky peeks with a smirk, planning on watching the dragon put on a show for him.

As Magni was climbing high, he watched curiously as Cloudjumper seemed to be coming the opposite direction. But he gave a surprised sound as he was nearly barreled into, just rolling out of the way to avoid what he thought would be a collision but rather saw that it wasn't a true attempt. Huffing softly, a small puff of smoke escaping his nostrils, he kept flying upwards until he seemed to be reaching the first set of clouds in the sky before arching backwards over one of them and twisting to right himself as he went into a steep dive.
But just in a moment of random display, he curled himself up into almost like a ball to allow himself to roll towards the sea this way. But once more, he waited until he was close before spreading his wings fully to slow himself and leveling out just above the water, his belly skimming the surface. Though he dipped his head to scoop some water into his mouth before pulling upwards, flying towards where he spotted Cloudjumper when leveling out, a playfully wicked look in his amber eyes as he pulled upwards towards the rocky peaks and spat the water at him.

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon Cloudjumper watched with intent as the other dove and rose gracefully, though spitting at him wasn't all that graceful. He huffed a warble and jumped up, landing on the other dragon's back for a moment before jumping off and diving to gain speed, doing a loop around the other, "You're an amazing flyer, naturally. I wouldn't expect anything else from a titanwing." He said and crooned happily, neither of them seemed to have noticed the men among the rocks, ... which was their mistake. CloudJumper was about to suggest going to the beach of the island to fish when something sharp pierced his side, multiple more arrows with green ooze on the end being shot at the other dragon while CloudJumper fell from the sky, suddenly feeling tired and weak as he fell. A net was around him before he hit water or anything, and he looked up to see men around him holding out a net, and carrying him towards a ship already prepared. His yellow eyes turned to the sky, to watch the scene as he fought off the darkness wanting to greedily consume him. |

"I've had plenty of practice." Magni responded, chuckling as he flapped his wings hard to keep in the air when the other Stormcutter jumped from his back. He twisted, ready to tackle him in a playful manner before something sharp struck his hide, causing him to snarl and flap his wings furiously, twisting his head to see where the arrows were coming from, several more striking his hide as he tried to dodge around. But he could feel his body begin to grow heavy and weak, hissing he tried to remain in the air but soon falling after Cloudjumper, barely able to stay conscious as he watched his new companion become enclosed in a net.
His amber eyes widened slightly, recognizing the nets all too well. "No! Hunters!" He roared, that roar echoing slightly off the rocks but his struggling seemed to only make him more exhausted, working the green substance into his system all the faster as a net ensnared him next after he hit the water. Like Cloudjumper, he too was dragged towards the prepared ship, growling weakly as he passed out.

| CLOUD JUMPER Proud Uncle Dragon Cloudjumper came too a few hours later, a horrible headache making his head throb, and his body was still heavy. His eyes focused as he realised where he was... hunters ship. He was in a large cage with several other dragons, Magni being one of them. Out of instinct he used his little bit of strength to crawl towards the dragon he knew, even if only slightly, trying to rationalize the situation... One thing he did know, was that his riders would come for him. Berk would come for him. There was no doubt about it. He hissed in pain as he looked down at his wing, a rather nasty cut was there from where an arrow had gone through. He didn't know if Magni was awake or not, but he curled up against the other dragons back anyway.

Magni didn't stir until a short time later, growling softly from his pounding head and the soreness of his body from where the arrows had been torn from his hide. It took him a few moments to really process where he was, feeling something or someone pressed against his back, causing him to turn his head 180 degrees, tilting it slightly to spot the smaller Stormcutter curled up against him. Behind him, there were other dragons, captured ones that made his blood boi
Anger surging through his still weak form, he snarled and reared up as far as the cage would allow, throwing his full form against it's side. He did this a few times, his snarls growing in frustration, even giving the faintest hints of a desperation as he slammed his side and rammed his powerful head against the metal. It didn't do much, maybe scrapped some of it but hardly doing anything, if at all. "Humans." He hissed under his breathe before turning a hard glare towards Cloudjumper, "They are not our friends, the moment our backs are turned they do this to our kind. Your precious Berk's ways won't last." He growled towards the smaller male before turning his back to him, trying to peer around, to find a way to escape the moment it was presented.
