Lol, I know I keep saying I'll update soon and all, but y'know those moods you get when you either really wanna write or really don't? I've been getting those a lot lately :/ And I really wanted to write this! :D I had this idea in the shower the other day - ya know, where all your best ideas come from - after I'd watched How To Train Your Dragon (obviously, stupid Momo! xD) and thought it was about time to type it up :) It'll rate from T-M too! And about the deadlines, yeah, I'm just going to update whenever, sorry again! ^.^; Btw, LOVE the reviews I'm getting! They rock! They make me feel warm inside :) Thanks a lot guys and gurls!

"What!"
"Me and the other Vikings are going to the Dragon's nest in search of a new species of Night Fury. Who knows, maybe we'll come across something useful. Only you and a few select others will be staying behind to watch over the village."
"And how long will you be gone?"
"I'm not sure. Around 4-6 weeks, maybe longer."
"4-6 weeks!"
"Ohh, your a big boy now Hiccup, I trust you to be able to take care of the village."
"But Dad-"
"No buts! You will take care of the village while I'm away and nothing will be destroyed, damaged, missing, broken or dead when I get back! Understand?"
"But-"
"Understand?"
"...Yes Sir."
"Good. Oh, and while I'm at it, Astrid, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, Snotlout and Fishlegs will be staying here."
"What!"
"I did mention you'd be staying behind with a few others didn't I?"
"Well, yes but-"
"What did I say about buts?"
"No buts..."
"That's a good boy! Well, I'm off, see ya 'round squirt!"
"Bye Dad... This, this right here, yeah, right here, sucks."
