I've been playing the How To Train Your Dragon School of Dragons app on my phone recently, and I couldn't help myself! This story was just BEGGING to get written! I just couldn't let this idea slip away from me and at least had to write this chapter to get it started! After this, I plan to update The Dragon Jedi. Those chapters for Scarlet Scarab: Arc of The Teen Titans and the continuation of Owlman Unlimited are still a work in progress.

Leaving Vale for an Ancestral Home!
"Do you really think that it's a good idea to just let her leave without a word like this, Ozpin?" Glynda asked.
She and Ozpin had been up late that night going over some last minute paperwork, when they noticed Yang making a break for the Launch Pads to the Emerald Forest. At first they had assumed that she was just trying to get in some late night training, but those hopes were dashed when they saw the packed bag slung across her back.
Glynda wanted to try and stop her from leaving, maybe find out what was wrong. But she was stopped by Ozpin, who told her to let the younger blonde leave.
Ozpin sighed and sipped his mug of coffee. He'd made a double batch of the stuff since Glynda also felt like she'd be needing some to stay awake until their work was done. Lucky for them, the next day is Saturday, so there'd be no classes.
"I'm afraid this is the best course of action, Glynda." Ozpin replied. "Miss Xiao Long needs some time away from all of this negativity that had built up in Beacon. But rest assured, I intend to send a few students as back-up should the time ever arise."
"And such a time would be…?" Glynda inquired.
Ozpin merely grinned and looked up at the fractured moon that floated over their planet.
"We'll know that time when we see the signs." he said cryptically.
Glynda groaned and massaged her temples. She absolutely hates it when her boss goes into cryptic riddler mode! Almost as much as she hates his laziness streak!
She only hoped that Yang would be having an easier time than her at the moment.
*With Yang…*
Running through the Emerald Forest in the dead of night, Yang Xiao Long was trying to get to the open water before anyone found out she has run away. She messed up pretty badly on a mission and as a result, uh… well, I'll tell you about it later.
But what I CAN tell you is that she's trying to get to a ship that she had built and stocked with food and fresh water just in case something like this happened. In case she needed to leave quickly. Her destination is clear. Her and Ruby's father, Taiyang, once told her about the Xiao Long family's ancient Viking heritage and how they hailed from an island known as Berk. An island where it snows nine months of the year, and hails the other three. Any food that grows there is tough and tasteless. The people there are even more so.
But recently, she's heard talk that the greatest upsides are the pets. While most places have puppies or kittens, Berk has… Dragons!
As Yang stepped through the thick underbrush, she found herself at her intended destination. A wooden boat loaded with food and water below deck and possessing both a sail and a pair of oars to row on a day with no wind.
"Finally! I thought I'd NEVER get here!" sighed Yang.
Moving quickly, she untied the boat from a nearby tree stump and got in before using an oar to push out to the open water of the sea. She started rowing as quickly and silently as she could, knowing full well that she could no longer stay here.
She did feel guilty about leaving without saying goodbye to Ruby, but she knew that she just couldn't stay. Otherwise, people might start to treat Ruby like a pariah just because of association. Lord knows that CARDIN definitely would!
But Yang is a woman on a mission! It's her time to find her true destiny and bring peace back to Remnant! And who knows? She might just meet some pretty interesting people on her journey of self discovery.
Oh, Yang. If only you knew how right you are.
*To Be Continued…*
I know, I know, very short chapter. But you have to admit, it is at least a start. I plan for future chapters to be longer, but I need everyone to vote on the poll I posted for Yang's partner Dragon so I can do that. Good luck, and happy reading!
