  Summary

  A marauders How To Train Your Dragon AU!!

  Sirius Black is dealing with the pressure to become a dragon killer just like all of the vikings in Berk, but he just doesn't have it in him, much to his father's disappointment. When Sirius finally captures his first dragon one night (the coveted Night Fury) he discovers a vast and terrible secret. Far from being uncontrollable and violent creatures, dragons are actually a race of humans that are able to shift into dragon form. And Sirius has just gravely injured Remus Lupin, a tall and withdrawn man whose rare and powerful dragon form makes him an outsider, even amongst his peers. As the two form an uneasy, but necessary friendship, Remus learns how to fly again while Sirius grapples with the complete shift in his world view. Through mysteries, legends of old, and Pandora’s prophecy, one thing becomes clear: the vikings must learn to work with the dragons before it is too late.
