It was a sunny day on the island of berk as the 6 year old hiccup strolled toward the village docks his nose stuck in his notebook as he scribbled.
"You know you should really watch where it is your walking hiccup." Gobber said as he steered the boy so he wouldn't crash or fall off a cliff.
" but your doing such a great job looking for me" he replied.
"What are you doing in that wee thing anyways?" Gobber asked him curious and a bit afraid. Even though hiccup was so young he tended to get himself into a lot of trouble.
"Inventing" he said making a frown then tweaking whatever it was that made him upset.
"Vikings don't really invent things hiccup..." Gobber said unsure of how to break it to the boy that his new found passion wasn't exactly viking standard normal.
" then how did we make our boats go faster or weapons better or... Um... "He paused scratching his head trying to think of something else. Gobber frowned the kid had a point.
"Alright i get your point but hiccup you need to stop all this... At least for the next few days anyway" " hiccup looked up from his notebook green eye's wide.
" but you just gestured to all of me" he said saddened slightly.
"Hiccup your a very smart boy heh smarter than your cousin anyway... "Hiccup chuckled slightly at this..."but you can't rush yourself...one day you'll change the world if you want to but right now be a kid and have some fun" gobber said gently as the two neared stoick hiccup's father.
"Who's coming again?" Hiccup asked quickly slipping his notebook and charcoal away.
"Oswald and his two children" stoick reminded his son. How could he have already forgotten? He just told him this morning for thor's sake!
"What do i have to do?" He asked head cocked to the side curiosity and slight apprehension on his face.
"Keep his children occupied" stoick said a bit miffed now.
" how do i do that?" He asked totally lost. If they were anything like the other kids on berk he was doomed.
"Figure it out son" stoick said clapping him on the back. Hiccup turned to gobber
"show them around the village a bit take em somewhere nice" gobber suggested. Hiccup nodded. This was not going to end well. A boat soon neared the docks. It was a beserker ship.
"Oswald welcome to berk!" Stoick said jovially.
"Thank you for having us stoick" Oswald said smiling.
"Dragons beware the dagur is here!" A young redheaded boy yelled dagger in hand coming hurtling off the ship.
" dagur there are no dragons here it's still daytime" Oswald reminded his son.
"Aaaw" he whined. Hiccup leaned to the side as he saw another figure hiding behind a shield on the ship. She eeped and ducked down.
"Hey what are you? "Dagur questioned turning around." -ooh sis come on it's fine!"
"Shy?" Stoick asked.
"Extremely" Oswald answered.
"I'm sure she'll grow out of it" stoick said hands on his hips.
" i hope your right" he responded.
"Alright you kids occupy yourselves" gobber said ushering the two chieftans to the great hall.
"So i'm dagur the girl hiding is my little sister kara.
" i'm hiccup" he responded.
"Snotlout snotlout oi oi oi!" A six year old ball of stupidity yelled running across the docks. Dagur annoyed at his introduction to another chiefs son being interrupted, stuck his leg out and snotlout tripped hitting the ground hard. Hiccup chuckled slightly. Giggling could be heard from the ship as the girl came slightly closer.
" you muttenhead!" An angry six year old astrid screamed marching over to snotlout angered.
"Hey ast-" hiccup tried but was roughly pushed into dagur. Dagur got a bit mad at this as well. How dare this girl disrespect the son of a chief! Even if he was a scrawny little runt.
"Where are they snotlout!" Astrid screamed.
"Ummm..." He replied dazed at the young girls beauty. She growled and stormed off.
"I'm going to kill those twins!" She screamed her grip on her axe tightening.
"Hey astrid wait babe i can help you find them! I'm stupid! i understand their stupid!"he called getting up and purposely shoved hiccup almost making the poor boy fall off the docks. Dagur righted him.
"Thanks dagur" he said.
" no problem hiccup after all us future chiefs have to stick to together!" He replied swinging an arm around the boy. Hiccup grinned slightly.
"Are you sure it's safe daggie?" A soft voice asked as the girl came cautiously walking off the ship.
"Course it is" he replied immediately.
"Are we going to be running into those angry people again?" She asked slightly scared ringing her hands as she took another step cautiously.
"Not if you don't want to" hiccup said holding out a hand to the girl. She smiled at hiccup and took the offered hand skipping off the ship.
"I wouldn't mind avoiding them if that's okay... The blonde one seemed mean" the girl said biting her lower lip slightly.
" i admit she seemed a bit feisty" dagur said holstering his dagger.
"That's astrid for you" hiccup shrugged used to his not friends behavior.
"Soo know any places to hide out brother?" Dagur asked a creepy smile on his face. Hiccup looked at him funny for a sec but shook it off.
"Umm..." Hiccup replied thinking before snapping his fingers an idea forming.
"I know just the place c mon follow me" hiccup said dagur's sister and his hand in hiccups.
" we got to be stealthy though" he reminded them as they snuck along crevices of houses.
"I like your style hiccup" dagur cackled excitedly.
"Thought you might" hiccup said trying to keep his courage up.
"This is fun" kara said smiling.
"It's easy to hide when your this size" hiccup smirked.
"Being a hiccup does have it's advantage's" kara smiled brushing a lock of her auburn hair away from her face. Dagur growled slighty as he saw the idiot from the docks again. Odins beard that kid was annoying.
"Alright Hic new plan! you take my sister to the super secret spot i'm going to go terrorize that what did feisty braid girl call him muttenhead? Eh whatever i'm gonna go try to drown him! Later!" Dagur cried runnin after snotlout who screamed in terror at suddenly being chased by the berserk form that was dagur.
"Wow your brothers certainly..."
"Deranged?" Kara offered with a shy smile.
"You said it not me"
"Noted" she replied.
"Now where are you taking me?" Kara asked.
"Somewhere you'll love" hiccup replied.
Minutes passed as the two went into the woods finally coming to a clearing filled with beautiful crystal shards. "It's beautiful" she breathed as she picked a stone up and examined it in the light. The stone was strange almost scale shaped. It was beautiful and unique. Kara loved it. The two sat in the clearing for hours. Nearly the whole day. The two had talked and bonded. Hiccup had found the shy berserker girl to be very sweet and kind. It was a nice change from the scorn and angry glares he usually got. Hiccup had drawn her, weaved her a bracelet and even made her a necklace out of the blue crystal scales they had found. It rested around the girls neck and she smiled at hiccup. Soon it was time for kara to return home but hiccup would never forget the kind berserker girl. Just as she would never forget the scrawny viking boy that had stolen her heart in one day and sealed it with a gift.
Should i continue? Yes? No? Maybe so? Please tell me in the comments!
